The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms

Chapter 667: Chapter 664: Mu Zhijiao Trapped in a Miserable Situation_1

That person is the Sect Leader of the Green Lotus Sect, one of the three major forces. His master is quite formidable, but not enough to provoke the Green Lotus Sect directly. It’s fine if you provoke a disciple or something of the Green Lotus Sect, but if you provoke the Sect Leader? That’s just courting death.

Having such thoughts, Zhang Huafeng ingratiatingly smiled and said, “Um, Sect Leader Li, what is this about…?”

“It’s nothing. I just noticed that you seemed to be saying a lot just now? Yang Chen is representing our Green Lotus Sect to challenge the Trial Tower, and you seem to be very dissatisfied with him? Mocking him and being sarcastic repeatedly? As the Sect Leader of the Green Lotus Sect, it isn’t right for me not to intervene!” Li Ruoxiang said in a measured manner.

She had been disliking Zhang Huafeng for a while. Others might be afraid of him, but she was not.

As she said, Zhang Huafeng provoking Yang Chen really had nothing to do with her, but Yang Chen was representing her Green Lotus Sect. Zhang Huafeng dared to keep talking about it, did he think her Green Lotus Sect was a joke?

Li Ruoxiang had to stand up. Otherwise, in the future, wouldn’t everyone treat her Green Lotus Sect as an easy target?

“Sect Leader Li, I have urgent matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first…” Zhang Huafeng hurriedly said.

“Urgent matters? You can leave if you want, but I, Li Ruoxiang, am not an unreasonable person. You’ve been saying many bad things about Yang Chen earlier; what should we do about that now? There should be some sort of gesture, right? Wanting to leave so easily, don’t you think that’s ridiculous?” Li Ruoxiang’s tone was icy cold.

Zhang Huafeng was completely cornered, gritting his teeth he said, “Sect Leader Li, please show some mercy when you can!”

“Don’t try that with me, Zhang Huafeng. If you knew about showing mercy when you can, you wouldn’t have been so aggressive to Yang Chen from the very beginning.” Li Ruoxiang scolded.

“Exactly! It was you, Zhang Huafeng, who was so aggressively provoking Yang Chen in the first place.”

“You, a person with the surname Zhang, kept hopping around like a clown in front of Yang Chen. Yang Chen didn’t even bother with you. But do you think the Green Lotus Sect is in a good temper?”

“Yang Chen doesn’t ignore him out of disdain; he just doesn’t bother with him because someone like Yang Chen, a true genius, wouldn’t talk to just anyone. Otherwise, wouldn’t he be losing face as a genius?”

“That makes sense.”

Zhang Huafeng was now flushed with anger by the mocking words of these people. He had heard before that when the wall falls, everyone pushes, but he had never experienced it. Now he had experienced it, as these loose cultivators who were talking at a low volume, had grown bolder with Li Ruoxiang backing Yang Chen, daring to outright mock Zhang Huafeng.

It would be fine if it were just one or two, but there were many martial artists doing so. No matter how formidable Zhang Huafeng was, could he retaliate against everyone?

This made Zhang Huafeng’s face flush with anger, but he couldn’t vent his frustration because all of this was instigated by Li Ruoxiang. What could he do to her?

“Sect Leader Li, I admit my mistake.” Zhang Huafeng practically squeezed these words out through clenched teeth.

“Is it enough to just admit your mistake?” Li Ruoxiang said expressionlessly, “You seemed to be calling Yang Chen a waste, and the like just now. If Yang Chen is really like what you said, then what are you, Zhang Huafeng?”

“I!”

Zhang Huafeng understood what Li Ruoxiang meant, and he hadn’t gone completely stupid.

He gritted his teeth and declared, “I, Zhang Huafeng, am the real waste. Compared to Yang Chen, I’m nothing.”

“Hahaha!”

“This is hilarious.”

In an instant, countless laughter erupted around him, pushing Zhang Huafeng to the forefront of attention.

Li Ruoxiang’s smile also appeared at the corner of her mouth. Now she felt much better; at least she had helped Yang Chen vent his anger, and she had also defended the dignity of the Green Lotus Sect.

With that in mind, Li Ruoxiang no longer acted completely aggressive. Zhang Huafeng’s master was a difficult person to deal with, so there was no need to push him to the edge. She waved her hand, “Alright, Zhang Huafeng, you can leave now.”

Zhang Huafeng, his eyes red, said nothing more and just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, slinking away like a rat that had crossed the street.

Zhang Huafeng was just a little interlude in the end. If he was the most awkward and troubled one, it wasn’t quite so.

The most difficult person to deal with was not Zhang Huafeng, but Mu Zhijiao from Huangsha City

At this moment, Mu Zhijiao didn’t even have the mood to laugh at Zhang Huafeng. When he saw that Yang Chen had actually reached the sixteenth floor in one breath, he was dumbfounded!

“What is this…” Mu Zhijiao felt like crying: “Young friend He Guang, can you tell me what to do? How should we deal with the situation now?”

If it was at the beginning, He Guang would have confidently said, “Don’t worry, there’s nothing to worry about.”

But now?

How could he say that?

Because he felt that his record, which he thought was impossible to break for the thirty-six Eastern Counties, had been brutally shattered by Yang Chen!

Whether he believed it or not, it was a fact.

He Guang swallowed hard and could only grit his teeth and say, “How would I know what to do!”

Mu Zhijiao’s eyes widened, and he reluctantly turned his head, “Young friend He Guang, you can’t play like this, can you? You saw various forces fighting over a Silver Dragon Scissors and thought they were pathetic. You promised a treasure even better than the Silver Dragon Scissors, thinking that it would be enough to attract them. Indeed, you attracted them, but now that you’ve lost, you have to give them the treasure. Where am I supposed to get the treasure? Our Huangsha City does business, and the best Silver Dragon Scissors have been sold. Where am I supposed to get a better Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasure?”

He Guang certainly knew that Mu Zhijiao was asking him for a Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasure. At this moment, he twisted his neck and adopted a somewhat coy attitude.

“No way, young friend He Guang, you’re not telling me that you didn’t think you’d lose at all, are you?” Mu Zhijiao asked nervously.

He Guang, although proud and arrogant, had lost his temper by now and could only nod heavily.

He indeed never thought he would lose. He never even considered the possibility. How could he imagine that the number one genius of the thirty-six Eastern Counties would be so powerful, much tougher than those from the previous batches? His record of reaching the fifteenth floor at the Half-step True Martial Realm was heaven-defying, but it still couldn’t suppress this kid’s momentum.

“So, the treasure, what do you mean to say?” Mu Zhijiao was on the verge of tears.

He Guang chose to lay his cards on the table and said clearly, “Mu Zhijiao, I have the treasure, but I made it very clear just now. I never thought I would lose, so the Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasure I have with me was never intended to be given away. You have to figure it out yourself.”

As soon as these words fell, He Guang brightly said, “Junior sister, let’s go!”

Mu Zhijiao was completely dumbfounded.

Now, as he watched He Guang and his junior sister leave, he truly felt the meaning of ‘wanting to cry but having no tears’.
