Chapter 177 - Too Afraid To Die! (1/2)
After a series of intense arguments, the grade-six Grandmaster from Heaven Tao Sect had now gained the upper hand.
Now it seemed that the guests were having second thoughts about confronting Heaven Tao Sect. What Heaven Tao Sect said was right. They were not Chu Xun’s servants nor friends. All they wanted was to witness his incredible power, so it was not necessary to die for it.
“I suddenly recall that I have some important matters to attend to. I will pay my visit another day.”
“I am truly grateful for the Immortal Water from Mr. Chu. Now that I have fully enjoyed myself during the banquet, I should take my leave and let the others behind me have the chance to enjoy this as well!”
“My sect has ordered me to return before dark. It is getting late, I shall take my leave first.”
More and more guests left after citing all kinds of strange reasons.
Some eccentric people left right after paying their respects, cupping their hands and left without saying a word. They may have seemed a bit rude, yet they were definitely more straightforward and honest than those who made up some excuses.
“Look at all those cowards, too afraid to die.” The problematic girl mocked those who left, she did not try to sugar-coat her contempt at all.
Some stared at her in anger while others blushed out of embarrassment, yet they could not say anything, for they had no just reason to argue.
Moreover, even Heaven Tao Sect seemed to be nothing in the eyes of the problematic girl, so it would be stupid of them to mess with her.
More than half of the guests left in a short while.
That grade-two Grandmaster was furious when he saw so many people leaving. His beard looked as if it was about to shoot up.
Meanwhile, Titan informed Chen Hanlong about the incidents at the plaza.
“Bastards…” Chen Hanlong cursed.
“What happened?” Mo Xinghe asked.
Mo Xinghe’s face turned gloomy right after Chen Hanlong explained everything.
“A bunch of blind idiots.”
At this time, those who left the plaza were already at the foot of the mountain.
Chen Hanlong and Mo Xinghe maintained their cold expressions and did not attempt to stop them.
There were still many people from Martial Tao world who were waiting for their turn to go up. They were confused to see so many people running away. After learning about what happened at the mountain top, however, they hesitated.
Chen Hanlong and Mo Xinghe stepped back. With a flick of their keys, the magic formation was activated, blocking off those people on the outside.
They sneered and went up the mountain. “Those cowards will never be allowed to set foot upon Qianlong Mountain again.”
It was no longer lively and noisy at the mountain top. On the contrary, the whole place was exceptionally quiet and deserted.
“Only those who know how to pick the winning side will survive. Are you guys waiting to die?” The grade-six Grandmaster from Heaven Tao Sect asked from the helicopter.
“Do you have what it takes to kill me?” The problematic girl said as she gave a sideway glance toward the sky. She was still resting her legs on the table and there was no trace of fear in her at all.
Her courage would have put many men to shame, let alone those who just ran away.
“It seems that Rock Sect has decided to side with Chu Manor, no matter what.” A voice came from the helicopter, “What a pity. Chu Xun should have picked a better date for the opening of his manor, for today will be the end of his manor.”
“Cut your nonsense already. Now you are just rambling like an old lady.” The problematic girl said with disdain.
There were only about ten people left, all of whom were brave and true warriors. However, they were still deeply impressed by the problematic girl’s teasing words. “She really is a fiery character!”
One could already imagine how insulted the people in the helicopter must feel even without looking at their faces.
To no one’s surprise, the grade-six Grandmaster from Heaven Tao Sect was looking extremely mad. The veins at his temples were throbbing and his face was as dark as a burnt pan.
“Since you are so eager to die, I will fulfil your wish!”
Swoosh!
An enhanced armor-piercing missile was deployed. Its tail was alight with flames and surrounded by thick smoke, it flew right toward the mountain top like a serpent.
