On the long street.
The three figures moved as fast as lightning, stirring up gales wherever they passed. How could those who wanted to follow and watch the excitement keep up?
In less than a moment, their figures were no longer visible to the crowd.
At the very front, naturally, was Gu Han, who had seized the opportunity to widen the distance.
At the very back was Instructor Yu, whose killing intent surged, vowing to eliminate both of them.
And in the middle… was Fatty, who had been severely tricked by Gu Han and suffered an undeserved calamity.
“Bastard!”
Like Gu Han, he was spitting blood while running furiously, and also… bellowing with a loud voice.
“Aren’t you ashamed, you damn scoundrel!”
“Ashamed, my ass!”
Gu Han’s voice came from afar.
“Who told you to laugh at me!”
“I…”
Fatty’s face quivered with rage.
“There were so many people watching, why did you have to pick Fatty, of all people!”
“Nonsense!”
Gu Han naturally plotted to ruin him to the death.
“That matter was a joint effort between us; we can’t implicate others!”
“You…”
Fatty instantly broke down.
“Implicate your grandpa!”
“Evil-hearted, rotten-lunged, good-for-nothing, bastard, son of a bitch…”
In his desperation, he rattled off more than ten expletives, none of them repeated.
“Save your strength.”
Gu Han kindly reminded him.
“Run faster, he’s catching up!”
“…”
Fatty stopped talking.
He had already sensed that Instructor Yu behind him was only a few feet away!
“You scoundrels!”
Seeing the two of them alive and kicking, even having the leisure to argue and curse at each other, Instructor Yu nearly exploded with rage, the killing intent in his eyes almost solidifying.
He naturally understood that he had encountered two freaks today.
Gu Han, though his cultivation was low, his spiritual power was far more profound than other Cultivators at the same level.
And Fatty, though his appearance was unremarkable, his Physical Body defense… was terrifyingly strong!
“Die for me!”
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, gathering all his cultivation within his right palm and striking at Fatty’s back!
Today… he absolutely could not let the two of them escape!
“Damn it!”
Feeling the chilling killing intent behind him, Fatty knew he couldn’t dodge this palm strike. Gritting his teeth, he simply stopped.
“Brother!”
With red eyes, he roared hoarsely, actually facing Instructor Yu!
“You go quickly, I’ll block him for you!”
“En?”
Hearing this, Gu Han’s heart skipped a beat, and he slowed his pace.
“Come on!”
Golden light shimmered around Fatty as he charged forward, howling!
“The person was killed by Fatty’s brother!”
“Fatty will take the blame for him; whatever it is, come at Fatty!”
Bang!
A loud crash!
Instructor Yu’s full-force palm strike landed squarely on Fatty’s chest!
Pfft!
A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out.
Fatty didn’t even cry out, instantly flying more than ten feet, rolling twice on the ground, and then lay still.
By the looks of it… he was in dire straits.
“Fatty…”
Gu Han’s expression was complex, and an unspeakable sense of guilt welled up in his heart.
He wouldn’t have… really gotten him killed, would he?
Previously, the reason he dragged Fatty along was naturally because he was mocked and felt a bit indignant.
Moreover, he had personally witnessed Fatty’s incredibly powerful defensive ability; he was a born meat shield, perfectly suited to slightly obstruct Instructor Yu.
But now… seeing that Fatty seemed to have truly been killed by him, his heart was filled with regret.
“This time…”
Seeing him somewhat dazed, Instructor Yu covered the distance in a few leaps, blocking him again.
“Let’s see where you run!”
“…”
Gu Han understood that this time, there was no escaping.
“I’m sorry… Fatty!”
Not far away, Fatty’s face was ashen, motionless, clearly unable to hear Gu Han’s words.
“Kid!”
Instructor Yu slowly approached.
“Now, are you regretting it? Too bad, it’s too late!”
“I said it!”
Gu Han held his long sword level, spiritual power ready to erupt within him.
“If he wants to kill me, I will kill him! You… are the same!”
This time… he was truly prepared to fight to the death.
“Stubborn!”
Instructor Yu took a fierce step forward, his Aura rising steadily!
“I’ll send you to your grave!”
Just as he was about to make his move, a sudden change occurred!
More than ten feet away, Fatty, who had already become a corpse, suddenly bounced up again, and with a whoosh… he ran off again!
Instructor Yu was stunned.
Gu Han was also stunned.
“Holy… crap!”
At this moment, he couldn’t help but curse.
“Fatty, you’re not dead?”
“Nonsense!”
Fatty ran further and further, his tone somewhat smug.
“What kind of person am I, Fatty? How could I die so ignominiously in such a small place? There are too many people who want to kill Fatty; he’s not good enough!”
“You bastard!”
These words were directed at Gu Han.
“You dared to trick Fatty! It backfired, didn’t it! Fatty will wait and see how you die, wahahahaha…”
Amidst his loud laughter, he had already run out of sight.
“Damn… it!”
Being mocked by Fatty like this, Instructor Yu completely erupted.
“All of you should die!”
Boom!
As he spoke, his Spirit Profound Sixth Level cultivation completely burst forth, and that sheer Aura alone forced Gu Han to retreat repeatedly.
“First, I’ll kill you!”
“Then, I’ll kill him!”
“None of you will escape!”
“…”
Gu Han said nothing, his spiritual power surging out instantly, solidifying into a three-inch sword light on the broken sword tip!
This time, he didn’t hate Fatty anymore.
On the contrary, seeing that Fatty was not dead, he felt relieved.
“You want to kill me, then… En?”
Suddenly, he seemed to see something, his expression somewhat surprised.
“Chief Steward Li, you’re back?”
“Nonsense!”
Instructor Yu sneered, his palm imbued with immense power, instantly arriving before Gu Han!
“Kid, do you think I’ll fall for that again?!”
Bang!
In a flash of lightning!
A hand suddenly reached out from the side, blocking Instructor Yu’s strike!
Their palms met. Instructor Yu’s figure instantly retreated more than ten feet, a profoundly gentle spiritual power constantly surging within his body, directly aggravating his previous injuries, causing him to involuntarily spit out a mouthful of blood.
“Heh heh.”
A somewhat sharp voice came over.
“Saying our family is nonsense, then what kind of thing are you?!”
“Chief… Steward Li!”
Instructor Yu stared intently at the slightly hunched figure before him.
“It’s really you?”
“What, our family has only been away for a short while, and you don’t recognize our family anymore?”
“This kid…”
Instructor Yu cast a gloomy glance at Gu Han.
“What is his relationship with you?”
“Just you? Do you have the right to question our family?”
“You…”
Instructor Yu suppressed the anger in his heart.
“Don’t you know, he has a blood feud with me!”
“Then do you know, this Gu Brother is my benefactor?!”
Suddenly, another voice came over.
Seventh Prince, Jiang Feng!
Damn it!
Instructor Yu’s heart sank sharply.
Although he didn’t know why Gu Han had become the Seventh Prince’s benefactor, he understood in his heart that it was impossible for him to kill Gu Han today.
Not to mention that Chief Steward Li’s cultivation was much higher than his, just the Seventh Prince’s identity made him quite wary.
Even though he suffered from a terminal illness and was not valued at all, he still carried the royal Bloodline, and his status was something a martial arts academy instructor could not shake.
“What?!”
Chief Steward Li was somewhat displeased.
“Seeing Your Highness, and not even bowing?!”
“Yes.”
Despite his reluctance, Instructor Yu still clasped his fist.
“Greetings, Your Highness… En?”
Suddenly, he noticed something was off.
Jiang Feng, at this moment, was vastly different compared to a few months ago! Not only had the Death Qi between his brows disappeared, as if he had been reborn, but there were also faint spiritual power fluctuations around him!
The Seventh Prince… actually had cultivation!
“Instructor Yu.”
Jiang Feng looked at him indifferently, his face expressionless.
“This Gu Brother has saved my life. If you insist on making a move against him, it means making a move against me. The consequences… you should understand!”
Instructor Yu’s heart tightened.
He hadn’t expected Jiang Feng to block his retreat like this. Now, unless he didn’t want his own life, he would have to think twice before making another move against Gu Han.
“What?”
Chief Steward Li sneered.
“Are you deaf?! Your Highness is speaking to you!”
“…Yes!”
“You’d best remember this and not harbor any ill intentions, otherwise… hehe, our family will personally eliminate you!”
“…”
Despite his burning anger, Instructor Yu dared not act out.
Otherwise… it would give Chief Steward Li a reason to make a move!
“Hurry up and get lost! Don’t be an eyesore here!”
“Farewell!”
Instructor Yu gave Gu Han a deep look, then left without further delay.
Gu Han naturally understood that the animosity between him and Instructor Yu was as deep as the sea, and neither side could easily let it go. This matter… was far from over!
“Gu Brother.”
Seeing him covered in blood, Jiang Feng was somewhat worried.
“Are you alright?”
“I’m fine.”
Gu Han shook his head.
“Just a minor injury, nothing lethal!”
“Thankfully.”
Jiang Feng was still shaken.
“If Chief Steward Li and I hadn’t arrived just in time, something big would have happened today.”
“Chief Steward Li.”
Gu Han clasped his fists.
“Thank you for your assistance!”
“Tsk tsk.”
Chief Steward Li was in a good mood.
“It’s not easy to hear you say thank you.”
“Is that so?”
Gu Han chuckled.
“Then I won’t thank you!”
“…”
“Speaking of which.”
Seeing the two of them starting to bicker again, Jiang Feng secretly had a headache and quickly tried to smooth things over.
“Why don’t I see that A Sha girl?”
“She’s at the inn; she didn’t come out with me.”
“What about your friend?”
“Friend?”
Gu Han was startled.
“What friend?”
“It seems… he’s a Fatty.”
…
A secluded street corner.
Fatty’s face was pale, staggering forward, not a trace of his earlier Divine Qi remaining.
“Hiss… It hurts Fatty to death!”
“Just you wait! Fatty, I’ve remembered you! I’ll get revenge for this palm strike sooner or later… Ow!”
“Bastard!”
Thinking of Gu Han, the culprit, he was furious.
“Every time I see you, nothing good happens!”
“Last time was one thing, but this time is even worse! If Fatty didn’t have some trump cards, I would have been killed by you today… En?”
Halfway through his sentence, his expression changed drastically.
“No way…”
“The old man said,” he muttered to himself, as if remembering something, “Human Tribulation, Human Tribulation… caused by humans, certain death!”
“Could it be…”
“This bastard is my Human Tribulation?”
