Chapter 98: Ancient Dragon Declares War!
I truly don't know about that... I'm just a clerk in the department, and my position within the sect is very low..." Liang Wanhao said with a bitter expression."Alright, last question, why are you pr...Zheng Xiucheng's figure froze, his expression rigid.
"You did such a despicable thing, you should apologize to me, shouldn't you" Fang Yu said calmly.
Fang Yu smiled when he spoke, but his eyes held a chilling glint.
All eyes were on Zheng Xiucheng, most filled with disdain and mockery.
Zheng Xiucheng's face was dark, he gritted his teeth tightly, refusing to speak.
As the young master of the Zheng family, he was always met with respect and adoration wherever he went. When had he ever suffered such humiliation
"Doesn't Zheng Xiucheng even apologize Daotian Master not directly attacking him is pure luck."
"So, he thinks this is Huaibei He did something so disgusting and still doesn't want to apologize"
"What a shameless bastard! The Zheng family is nothing! I propose that if he doesn't apologize, we won't let him leave!"
A chorus of boos arose, gradually morphing into chants.
"Zheng Xiucheng, apologize!"
For the entire month, around one hundred and fifty people on Lake Xinhu had shouted in unison.
Zheng Xiucheng and Yang Yinzhu were surrounded by the crowd, their hearts pounding in their chests from the deafening roar.
Zheng Xiucheng's face was extremely ugly, and he felt incredibly stifled in his heart.
Damn it! Damn it!
He has fallen to such a state!
But now he has no other choice but to apologize!
The two Zheng family protectors he brought, one was dead and the other crippled. With so many martial arts families from Jiangnan around, if he didn't apologize, he might not have been able to walk out of Yuexin Lake today!
"...I'm sorry." Zheng Xiucheng uttered those three words with difficulty.
Fang Yu shook his head and said, "Your apology isn't sincere enough. At least you should bow to me Your sneak attack just now almost cost me my life."
Seeing the sarcasm in Fang Yu's eyes, Zheng Xiucheng's humiliation and resentment reached their peak, his eyes even turning bloodshot.
But he still slowly bent down, bowing to Fang Yu, and said again, "I'm sorry."
"That's about it," Fang Yu smiled faintly, and said, "You can go now. And please don't do such despicable things again in the future, or you'll be punished by heaven."
Zheng Xiuchen took a deep breath, looked at Fang Yu with bloodshot eyes, and turned to leave.
Yang Yinzhu's face was pale, and she hurried to follow after him.
A cheer rose around them.
For the representatives of the major martial arts families in Jiangnan, seeing Zheng Xiucheng leave so humiliatingly was the most satisfying thing.
……
Zheng Xiucheng and Yang Yinzhu quickly walked out of Yuexin Lake, got back into the sedan chair they came in, and hurried away.
All the way, Zheng Xiucheng's face was gloomy and he didn't say a word.
"Xiuchen, are we... still going to Jianghaishi" Yang Yinzhu hesitated for a moment before asking.
She came to the Jiangnan region with Zheng Xiuchen this time, her main purpose was to settle accounts with Fang Yu. Attending the Jiangnan Martial Arts Family Summit was just a coincidence.
Unexpectedly, at this summit, Zheng Xiucheng suffered a major setback. Not only did he lose two masters-level protectors, but he also lost all face.
For Yang Yinzhu, the most important thing was to find Fang Yu and seek revenge. To this end, she was even willing to sell her body and become Zheng Xiucheng's woman.
"What do you think" Zheng Xiucheng looked at Yang Yinzhu, his eyes bloodshot and terrifying.
On contact with Zheng Xiucheng's gaze, Yang Yinzhu felt a tremor in her heart and dared not speak another word.
"Your revenge, I will get for you sooner or later! But right now, I have my own revenge to settle! Return to Huaibei immediately!" Zheng Xiucheng said to the driver in a hoarse voice.
To the heavens, I don't care who you are, or who you belong to!
If you dare to humiliate me, Zheng Xiucheng, and kill my Zheng family's protector, I will definitely make you pay a heavy price!
……
On the surface of Yuexin Lake, Fang Yu had been surrounded by representatives from major Jiangnan families.
"Dao Tian, we are the Ding family from Nan Du. We would like to invite you to our home for a visit. We wonder if..."
"Master Daotian, we come from the Jiangnan Wu family. We hope you will give us some face…"
"Master Daotian…"
After witnessing Fang Yu's terrifying power, everyone wished to befriend him.
Fang Yu was surrounded by the crowd, unable to move.
Fortunately, he listened to Qin Yimo's advice on the road and disguised himself. Otherwise, if he had appeared in his true identity, there might be even bigger trouble later on.
And now, as long as he leaves Yuexin Lake and washes off the makeup on his face, returning to Fang Yu, then no one will recognize him, nor will anyone be able to find him.
"Thank you for the invitation, but Mr. Daotian is a quiet person who doesn't enjoy crowds very much. He might not be able to accept your invitation." At this moment, Qin Yimo stepped forward to help Fang Yu out of the awkward situation.
"My house is very quiet, perfect for Daotian!"
"My home is quieter, a villa on a mountaintop, with few people around..."
"My hometown is in the far north, where there isn't even a single person!"
Qin Yimo's words were ineffective; the surrounding people's enthusiasm remained high.
After all, Fang Yu's displayed strength was simply too powerful. No one would be willing to give up the opportunity to befriend Fang Yu.
Just then, a startling eagle cry that pierced the clouds rang out from the sky.
Everyone was drawn to the sudden sound, they all looked up at the sky.
Suddenly, a monstrous bird with all-black feathers flew into the sky.
The three referees from the Martial Arts Association, upon seeing this strange bird, changed color.
They know, this is the revered master of Jiangnan, Gu Ru Long's beloved pet, Black Eagle!
A black hawk flew to the front of three white-robed judges, landing on the shoulder of the one in the middle.
The referee, with a solemn expression, took the note tied to Black Hawk's leg.
This letter was delivered by the Black Eagle, so the contents on it must be in the handwriting of Old Dragon himself.
What on earth is going on
The referee opened the note and glanced at it quickly, his face changing.
He immediately leaped onto the high platform and, using his true energy to transmit his voice, said: "Please be quiet, everyone. I am about to read a letter personally written by Master of Masters, Lord of Dragon Gate, the esteemed Ancient as the Dragon, Venerable Long."
At the sound of this name, silence fell over the surrounding area.
As old as the dragon!
This is the legend of their Jiangnan region! Also, the acknowledged strongest person in Jiangnan!
Since ancient dragons have sent a letter, and it's to be read today at this summit, it must surely announce something major!
"Recently, I have reached the ceiling of the Grandmaster realm. I will be retreating for a period to break through to the Martial Venerable realm. After leaving seclusion, I will take the disciples of Dragon Gate to Jiangnan to kill Fang Yu and avenge my disciples Gu Yan and Yang Jian, and restore Dragon Gate's reputation. I write this letter to announce it to the world." The referee read word by word.
After hearing the content of this letter, the whole audience was shocked!
Could it be that Gu Ruolong is about to break through to the Martial Venerable realm! This is huge news!
The Jiangnan martial arts world has always been weak, and for many years, no one has been able to reach the Martial Venerable realm.
And now, finally, a venerable one as ancient as the dragon has emerged!
Will he be the only martial arts master in the Jiangnan region for nearly a century
And after breaking through to the Martial Sovereign realm, his first thing was to find someone named Fang Yu for revenge!
Who is this Fang Yu To have even the ancient Dragon personally write a letter proclaiming it to the world
"I had heard rumors before that Gu Ru Long's disciple, Yang Jian, was crippled by a young man named Fang Yu at the Jianghai City Martial Arts Association... But I didn't know that even Gu Yan was involved..."
"Gǔyán Wasn't that Gǔrúlong's chief disciple I heard he was an orphan adopted by Gǔrúlong many years ago. The two were as close as father and son!"
"No wonder Venerable Gulong is so furious... But I heard Gu Yan was very powerful, some even call him the world's foremost master of close combat... Who exactly is Fang Yu How could he defeat Gu Yan"
All around, there was a buzz of conversation, every eye filled with astonishment.
Gǔrú Lóng has disappeared from sight for many years, but now it speaks up, announcing such a big event!
The realm of martial arts respect, ah, that's the realm that most martial artists dream of but can never achieve in their lifetime!
And there was Fang Yu, who also sparked countless discussions.
He even dared to insult the two beloved disciples of Venerable Gǔ Rú Lóng, causing Venerable Gǔ Rú Lóng to take action himself. This person is incredibly bold and his strength is not insignificant.
"Ancient Dragon Venerable, are you going to use that Fangyu for a blood sacrifice..."
"I wonder how long Master Gulong will be in seclusion I'm so looking forward to it! I want to know, just how strong is the Martial Saint realm"
“That Fang Yu… being the first to fall under Gu Ru Long’s sword after he ascended to the Martial Venerable realm, could be considered a worthy death.”
Seizing the opportunity when everyone's attention was diverted, Fang Yu quickly left Yuexin Lake.
"Mr. Fang... what should we do now What about the esteemed Master Gulong..." In the car, Ji Rumeng looked at Fang Yu in front of her, her face pale and said.
Fang Yu tore the whiskers off his lips and said, "This thing is sticky, it's so uncomfortable."master, could single-handedly crush the Wang family...Even the Wang family is not afraid, so what's there to fear from the other four familiesYu Fangyu led the way, and excessive worry only turned int...
