You, do you have a penchant for forgetfulness? Tang Luo smiled faintly, his voice laced with mockery. Didnt you requestto demonstrate how Id take Li Shao Yuans life in front of you? So, are you satisfied with my performance? The stormy look in Mi Shens eyes was darker than ever. Just as he was about to retort, he saw Mi Hou stepping forward, pointing at Tang Luo and cursing loudly, Cant you stand someone else having retainers?!
Seeing the vibrantly furious Mi Hou, Tang Luo was nonplussed. He had anticipated various forms of verbal barbs, but this was one he didnt see coming. For a moment, he was stupefied.
As Mi Hou frowned upon seeing Tang Luos blank expression, he thought he had already deduced what the other party was thinking. This realization brought him a sense of sorrow.
Being a prodigal son with a disregarding attitude towards his duties, Mi Hou had his own information network, known as insider gossips. These gossips were inclusive of everything affairs of clan higher-ups, eccentric hobbies of famous experts, and most of them were idle chat among the various races.
Two years ago, a rumor circulated that Tang Luos first retainer had betrayed him. Enraged, he rode his Cloud Beast to chase after him, executing the traitor personally. From then on, he never took in any retainers again.
Although the reason for the defection was unclear, many people saw Tang Luo leaving Xiling town to chase after the traitor. This made the rumor more credible.
That was until last year, Tang Luo killed Mi Shens retainer, Zhang Xinghe, which led to a rumor saying that Tang Luo couldnt stand others having outstanding retainers due to his own painful experience. If there was a slight conflict, he would not hesitate to strike ruthlessly.
These gossips, which painted Tang Luo as a mean-spirited person, were not widely believed. Even Mi Hou laughed it off when he heard it.
But now, after the exchange of hostages, he mercilessly made a move on Li Shao Yuan, which made Mi Hou realize that what seemed like an absurd rumor could very well be true.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJust because your own retainer betrayed you and you didnt recruit any others, why the hell did you have to kill my retainer?! Mi Hou complained, his manor actually relied heavily on Li Shao Yuans strategies and planning. His other advisors were too inexperienced compared to Li Shao Yuan; not capable enough to handle significant tasks.
And now, Li Shao Yuan held a big plan connecting the four small families in West City. Although Mi Hou wasnt keen on this matter from the beginning, it was extremely unpleasant to have such an operation abruptly interrupted.
Tang Luo beceven more irritated upon hearing Mi Hous words. He killed Li Shao Yuan purely because the latter had done too many underhanded things to the Righteous Gang. What did that have to do with anything else?
The mere mention of the incident regarding Fang Han gave him a baffling feeling. How were these two matters even related? Either their imaginations were too rich or their brains had way too many holes.
Just as he was about to respond, he saw Mr. Xu, full of curiosity and intrigue, staring at him. Tang Luo was almost at a loss for words.
Explaining something that didnt even exist would be hard, but not explaining left him feeling uncomfortable as well.
Tang Luo could only mutter a few words to Mr. Xu and loudly declared,
Enough talk. If you want to kill him, go ahead, I certainly wont stop you. After all, how could the mighty Mi Family care about the insignificant Xu Clan from Yuanzhou, right?
Mi Shen charged ahead and stopped Mi Hou, who was about to say something. He glared at Tang Luo and said, Youre the one who killed Li Shao Yuan. Dont involve the Xu Clan from Yuanzhou!
As the young leader of the Mi Clan, being knowledgeable about ancient and modern matters was a basic requirement. No one would understand the implications of Xu Clan from Yuanzhou better than him.
So what are you gonna do? Try to kill me? Tang Luo arched his eyebrows, beckoning Mi Shen with his finger.
Mi Shens brows furrowed even more. He found it hard to believe that this reckless Tang Luo, who constantly wagered his life, was an acclaimed genius of Xiling. Did he not even understand the saying The son who is worth a thousand gold does not sit in the hall?
Looking at Tang Luos unruly expression, he suddenly felt he had begun to comprehend something about this individual. Even though he was born to an influential and powerful family, his style was more like a wandering warrior with nothing to lose. Its just that he was much smarter.
Otherwise, why else would he, with his mere Mortal Realm level, chase a traitor all the way to Clear Water County on a Cloud Beast, like an ignorant brute?
Given the presence of the Xu Clan here today, Ill spare the Shen Clan sface. You may leave, but Gong Zheng stays. Mi Shen stated coldly. As he raised his right hand, his team behind him shimmered with the glow of Combined Attack Technique.
Mr. Xu pursed his lips, about to open the Sword Tomb with a stroke of his blade, but was stopped in his tracks.eastern fantasy
Were leaving. Tang Luo turned to Mr. Xu and said casually.
????? Mr. Xu couldnt quite believe his ears and turned back to question, Are you out of your mind?!
With the arrogance displayed by the opponent, if he did as Tang Luo suggested, where would that leave his face as a member of the prestigious Xu Clan?
Did we or did we not save Gong Zhengs family? Tang Luos expression remained nonchalant. He said, We have saved them. Isnt Gong Zheng supposed to die then? Whats the difference whether you do it or they do it? The purpose was to rescue his wife and daughter. Were they also responsible for ensuring Gong Zhengs safety?
Well, that makes sense, but Even though he had understood, Mr. Xu still felt strange about just leaving.
But Tang Luo didnt care what he wanted to say. He turned to Gong Zheng, smiled and said, Did you hear all of that?
Gong Zheng nodded. His face was calm as he said to Tang Luo, I hope that in consideration for the kindness of my wife and daughter, youll take care of them when Im gone.
Just like Tang Luo said, his primary concern was the safety of his wife and daughter. Now that theyve been rescued, he could die without regrets.

Mr. Xu just ridiculed and didnt accept it. He casually said, Keep it for yourself.
Taking a warriors armor before his death was not something the gentlemen of Xu Clan would do.
With an awkward expression, Xu again asked Tang Luo, Really leaving?. He found it hard to walk away.
Remember what you promised me. Tang Luo reminded him, and then softly said to Gong Zheng, If you survive this, cfindat Cuiyun Building.
Gong Zhengs face changed suddenly, and he looked intently at Tang Luo as if realizing something.
Heh. Tang Luo chuckled. Lets go, Mr. Xu. He then activated Immortal Wind Cloud Body Technique and shot towards the sky.
Mr. Xu looked back at Gong Zheng, shook his head, and also rose into the air using his air sword.
Mi Shen clenched his fists tightly, watching the two ascending figures. He despised them but kept a calm expression on his face as he watched them leave.
At a short distance away, Gong Zheng had already activated his scale armor, emanating a deadly aura.
Release the Combined Attack Technique! Mi Shen ordered and promptly left with Mi Hou.
There were a series of earth-shattering explosions behind him..
