615 Reveal (2/2)
After a long day, this was the main point!
The Man of Honor, Ji Zhongtang, was the most loyal person in the martial arts world. His reputation traced back to the Guan Yu in his previous life. He was Lu Shaoyou's Yi uncle, or to be exact, he could even be called Lu Shaoyou's Yi father or biological father in the afterlife. The reason Lu Shaoyou had gone to look for Wang She for a fight was that Wang She had destroyed the skeleton of Ji Zhongtang's late wife. Lu Shaoyou wanted to avenge his Yi father. This should have been Ji Zhongtang's matter to take care of. Hence, Lu Shaoyou not defeating Wang She, and Ji Zhongtang coming in to save him, while not morally correct and against the rules, was acceptable in regards to this favor.
This was also why Ji Zhongtang dared to take a side so obviously in the duel.
Wang She listened to Ji Zhongtang's question and raised his eyebrows. He looked calm and was not as agitated as Zhou Bao had imagined him to be. Wang She only scanned Ji Zhongtang with one look and broke into laughter suddenly. ”Your beloved wife, hehe, I can't believe you can really say these two words out loud! You were the one who beat your wife to death! Is this how you should treat her?!”
”You-!” Ji Zhongtang's initial furious expression instantly became stunned. Only three people in the world knew the truth. Himself, his son, and Lu Shaoyou. How could Wang She know about it? Even if he did, why had he chosen to bring it up now in this situation? He was stunned.
”Hehe, the Man of Honor Ji Zhongtang, I don't think your nickname is very good. It should be the Man Who Killed His Wife Ji Zhongtang. I did not destroy my mother's skeleton. I only moved her to a place she loved. I don't think the elderly would want to stay in that sh*tty moral shrine, don't you think?!”
”You, you are...!”
”I am Wang She, why, do you have any problems?!” Wang She was still smiling as he stared at Ji Zhongtang.
”You, you are Tianyuan, you are Tianyuan...!” Ji Zhongtang was very agitated. His biological son had passed away many years ago and had suddenly appeared again, how could he not be agitated? The possibility of Wang She posing as him was a joke. There was no reason for Wang She to pose as his son. Wang She was the Chief of Tian Long Taoism and an Individual Immortal of the Mysterious Realm. Be it identity or status, he was nowhere worse than Ji Zhongtang. Why would he pose as his son?
Also, regarding his looks, initially he had not felt this way, but now as he looked, he did look fairly similar to his wife. Thinking about his behavior all along, after processing his thoughts, he finally realized what was going on.
After the initial agitation, he finally calmed down. He sighed. ”I can't believe you are still alive!”
”Of course I am. However, Ji Tianyuan is dead, I am now Wang She!” Wang She's smile grew vibrant gradually. ”The duel was started by The White Blademaster Lu Shaoyou but was taken over by you. No matter what, you are still my senior, I am of no place to attack you. I think today's duel should end here!”
No one would have thought that Wang She would be so easy to talk to. One sentence was enough to reveal the whole story. Of course, what was even more surprising was the relationship between Wang She and Ji Zhongtang, as well as the secret he revealed today.
So actually, Ji Zhongtang's son had not died back then. He had even become the Chief of Tian Long Taoism. Also, Ji Zhongtang's wife had not died being chased by killers. Rather, she had been killed by Ji Zhongtang himself. As for his reason for killing her, it wasn't hard to figure out. What kind of mother would be willing to send her own child to die in order to redeem another's son's life?
None!
So Ji Zhongtang had killed her!
”This Fight For Justice is really straight to the point!”
The crowd had understood and their view towards Ji Zhongtang changed. The atmosphere right now at Dragon Gate Rock was very strange. Were they putting on a show of two enemies at a face-off or were they having a father-son reunion moment? Why were they not able to understand what was going on?
”However, I will not let go of this guy. My mother died because of him, so he must die. That way, my heart will be at peace. Not only has he got to die, I have to torture him slowly. Today is just a start!” Wang She smiled. He nodded towards Ji Zhongtang, turned into a rainbow and disappeared, not giving a damn about the crowd's feelings.
”Tianyuan, Tianyuan...!” Ji Zhongtang did not expect Wang She to just leave like that. He had not given him a chance to speak at all. He called out to him twice and got no response. Wang She had already flown far away. Ji Zhongtang's outstretched hand had no more energy. He waved it twice in the air and gave a long sigh. He had nothing to say.
”Hehe, the real show is just starting!” The teen in the crowd swung his sleeves, grabbed his betting stand and left swiftly. Afterwards, the crowd gradually dispersed too. The experts who were close to the fighting scene either rode on the winds or turned into rainbows and left. Eventually, Ji Zhongtang and Lu Shaoyou left with troubled looks on their faces. Dragon Gate Rock became peaceful once again. This time, however, it had disappeared. Only a big hole was left in the mountain.
”Is Wang She really Ji Zhongtang's biological son? He did not die falling down the cliff? He is back to take revenge on his father, is that true?!”
Perhaps women were naturally born with a passion for gossiping. Once she learned the truth, Yan Yunfei bombarded Zhou Bao with questions.
”Yes, yes, their relationship is fine, they are father and son. However, now they've become enemies too. This topic has already spread very far, I do not know more than those spreading it!” Zhou Bao was obviously annoyed. ”Regarding anything prior to this, I have nothing to say. As for the future, I can only tell you that the real show has just started!”
