Chapter 90: The Most Direct Mockery

  "Second brother, I never thought I'd have to fight you to the death. This is all your fault. As the eldest son of the legitimate line, I cannot lose the position of clan leader. I will not be able to show my face if I don't kill you today." Tang Qian's eyes flashed with a fierce glint as he strode towards Tang Yan with large steps.

  Ade said nothing and walked towards Du Yang with a poisonous dagger.

  The old man's doting on Tang Yan deeply hurt Tang Qian, and the purpose of his visit today was to come and kill.

  First, come up with a random excuse to get rid of Tang Ba and the others, then take advantage of the opportunity to kill Tang Yan.

  Tang Ba and the others should have discovered the trick soon, but by the time they rushed back in a flurry, Tang Yan was already a corpse. At that time, even if they were furious, they wouldn't dare do anything, as the family had lost the "Second Young Master" and couldn't afford to lose the "Eldest Young Master". Tang Qian took advantage of the situation to make another agreement with them, and this matter would be hidden from view, without anyone knowing. Even if the three of them refused to keep it a secret and brought themselves back to the family, at most they would receive some punishment, but nothing more severe could happen to them.

  There is only one reason: he is the young master and the future heir of the family!

  Tang Qian had another purpose in doing so, which was that he did not want the family to abandon the three great martial kings for nothing. He had long ago taken it upon himself as the heir of the family head and made many secret preparations. He did not want the family to be in a difficult situation after losing the three great martial kings when he took over as the head of the family in the future, so... Tang Ba and the others had to return to the family and assist him in the future, rather than following Tang Yan on his wild adventures around the world.

  "Is this Tang Yan?" Tang Qian came to Tang Yan's front, just about to take action, but was startled by the withered and shriveled appearance. Under the pale moonlight, it looked like a desiccated corpse, which made people feel particularly eerie.

  "What's wrong, young master?" Aden hurried over, quietly taking a deep breath: "What's with this look? Could there be some mistake?"

  "Is that Du Yang over there?"

  "Yes, that's right, I recognize it."

  "This is... " Tang Qian crouched down, felt the pulse again, and then pulled out an ancient war sword from the package beside him, inside which was still wrapped around the unconscious and weak Hei Tuan. "It's him! Shouldn't be wrong. No wonder his strength increased so quickly, turns out he cultivated evil martial arts."

  "Master, hurry up and get to it, don't drag this out. If Tang Ba and the others come back, we'll lose our chance." Adai quickly stepped back to Du Yang's side, grasping his knife and thrusting it towards his throat.

  This highly toxic poison is a blood choker that will corrode an entire throat in mere seconds until it snaps.

  "In the next life, don't be my brother, you can't defeat me." Tang Qian stabbed a knife towards Tang Yan's heart.

  But just as the knife tip touched Tang Yan's heart, his eyes suddenly opened: "What do you want to do?"

  The voice was hoarse and low, with a cold tone that startled Tang Qian and Adie, who were already tense.

  Tang Yan's eyes were dull and lifeless, but couldn't hide the coldness that had been slowly accumulating, staring at Tang Qian with a chill. He propped himself up to sit up straight.

  "You..." Tang Qian was secretly on guard, unable to fathom the situation, and didn't dare make any rash moves. Even Adie slightly restrained himself, quietly retracting his dagger into his sleeve. Given Tang Yan's performance in Giant Elephant City, no one dared to underestimate him anymore.

  "How did you end up here? Where's Tang Ba?"

  "Something urgent came up and I'm not here, how are you?" Tang Qian temporarily concealed his murderous intent.

  "It's fine." Tang Yan's eyes were sharp and noticed the black dagger in an instant, his mind racing with countless guesses, none of which were good.

  "Let me help you up?" Tang Qian walked over.

  "No need, I can do it."

  "Second Master, don't be polite, I'll come instead." Adai smiled and walked over.

  "Get out of here." Tang Yan said coldly.

  "Huh?" Adé's expression changed slightly.

  "Do I need to repeat myself for the second time? I said, get out, as far as you can go." Tang Yan deliberately made a simple test.

  "This... Second Master, isn't it a bit off?" Adie quietly glanced at Tang Qian.

  "Ade, you can just take care of Du Yang. Second brother, what kind of temper are you having?" Tang Qian's gaze didn't leave Tang Yan for a moment, quietly observing his condition, was he unconscious earlier? Or was he pretending to sleep?

  "Taking care of this old dog for you."

  "Second Master, you're going too far!" Adie's foot, which had just stepped out, stopped and turned to face Tang Yan.

  Tang Qian finally discovered Tang Yan's problem, weakness, extreme weakness, even sitting was a bit of a strain, the current toughness might just be pretending, silently smiled: "Second brother, apologize to Adou? Your words earlier were indeed not very polite."

  "Have you ever seen someone apologize to a dog?"

  "Ade is my man, can't you just give me some face?" Tang Qian's murderous intent was not concealed, step by step he walked towards Tang Yan.

  Tang Yan's face slowly darkened: "So that's how it is!"

  "What?"

  "So it was you!"

  "What am I? What are you talking about?" Tang Qian came before Tang Yan, looking down at him with a superior attitude.

  "At that time in Giant Elephant City, it was you who bought mercenaries to assassinate me! Not bad, you grasped the good timing, cleverly utilizing the complex relationships. You're indeed the young master of the Tang family." Tang Yan's heart was furious, this despicable thing, his old man didn't bother him, yet he still dared to play a preemptive strike.

  At first, I thought it was the Yang or Li family, and I even suspected the Academy and the Wang Manor. But I never expected it to be this seemingly upright elder brother! This kid is ruthless and poisonous enough to kill his own younger brother!

  "I still don't understand what you're saying." Tang Qian crouched in front of Tang Yan, his right hand behind his back gripping the poisonous dagger tightly.

  "You don't understand, you know best yourself. Tang Ba and the others should be your followers, right? What's wrong, want to kill me? Take them back?" Tang Yan's eyes were cold without any emotion.

  "You've become smarter, but sorry to say, the Tang family's painstakingly cultivated Wu Wang can't be wasted on you." As soon as Tang Qian's words fell, the dagger behind him stabbed fiercely towards Tang Yan's heart.

  "Wait!"

  "What else? Any last words?" Tang Qian's dagger pierced through his clothes and stopped in front of his emaciated skin.

  "You can totally kill me, and I don't have the ability to resist, but unfortunately, there are still people who don't want me to die now."

  "What?"

  "Master, look!" At this moment, Aden suddenly exclaimed, his eyes fixed on the darkness in front of him. A black-clad man with a paper person on his back was walking slowly towards them, an evil aura that seemed like icy cold tidal waves pressing in.

  "Take action!" Tang Qian no longer hesitated, his hand fiercely thrust towards Tang Yan's heart, but... a strange wave of sound instantly swept over, Tang Qian and Adie were struck as if by lightning, crying out in anguish, kneeling on the ground with pale faces, their bodies covered in cold sweat, their eyes flashing with intense fear.

  "Who are you? This is a matter of the Tang family, and we don't need outsiders interfering." Tang Qian struggled to get up, but his head suddenly throbbed with intense pain, and he crashed to the ground, curling up like a dead shrimp.

  Ren Tian Cang ignored them and came to Du Yang's side, without saying a word, he pulled up his collar and walked into the darkness. Tang Yan struggled to get up, carrying the ancient war sword and Hei Niu, stumbling as he followed, completely ignoring Tang Qian!

  "Tan Yan!!" Tan Gan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst out with a hysterical roar, his eyes turned red, like a furious beast.

  He went all out to kill him, but he didn't even put it in his eyes. This kind of sarcasm and contempt is more ruthless than stabbing himself.

  Ad slumped on the ground for half a day without regaining consciousness. Who was this man in black? What was his relationship with Tang Yan? And how did he end up here?

  Is this how it's going to end? Is Tang Yan just going to be rescued like that?!

  He can't accept it at all!

  Before long, Tang Ba and others flew over, and the three men's faces were gloomy and frightening.

  "Big young master, what kind of game are you playing? Is it fun?! " Tang Ba hated being played with the most. At the moment he saw Tang Qian, he slapped him without a hint of mercy.

  Bang! Tang Qian rolled over and crashed into Ad, the two of them heavily colliding with the big tree behind them.

  "How dare you hit me?" Tang Qian's face was swollen like a steamed bun, already furious, and now even more enraged.

  "I dare to waste you, I'm not a member of the Tang family now, and I have nothing to do with you. Don't show off in front of me! If it weren't for old master's face, I would have skinned you alive! Dare to play tricks on me? You're tired of living!"

  Tang Ba's ferocious gaze suddenly startled Adou and Tang Qian awake, finally remembering who the person in front of them was!

  Tang Hao looked around and suddenly changed color: "Where is the second young master?"

  "Was kidnapped."

  "Who!"

  "Wearing black clothes, carrying a paper man, it's the one who blocked the Ling Wang Fu Wu Wang in Giant Elephant City." Ade dared not to hide anything anymore. These butchers had no good intentions, and perhaps they didn't dare to kill Tang Qian, but they could kill him to vent their anger.

  "Ren Tian Cang? How did he end up here?" Tang Hao's eyebrows furrowed tightly, his voice cold as he asked: "Which direction?"

  "Over there!" Tang Qian pointed in the opposite direction!

  Tang Hao said in a cold voice: "If you dare to tell lies, don't blame me for not giving face to the old master."

  "That's right, it's over there." Tang Qian replied affirmatively.

  "Run!" Tang Hao and Tang Qing followed in pursuit one after another.

  Tang Ba still stood in place, his eyes growing colder by the second. He gazed at Tang Qian and Adou, making them feel a chill run down their spines: "I understand what you're getting at, and I too want to go home. However, what I, Tang Ba, detest the most is being used by others. Young Master, just this once and not again, I'll spare your guards' lives. On your way back, you'd best be careful."

  "What? Dead?" Tang Qian's face changed greatly, those four people were all Wu Zong! They were his own painstakingly cultivated absolute confidants, the future successors of the Tang family, and they were actually... all killed?

  Besides, with just myself and Adde, how can we escape this mystical forest?!

  "Eight Ancestors, you can't..." Ade was anxious and just about to speak when Tang Eight suddenly vanished into thin air.
