Chapter 280 – Dragon’s Migh (2/2)

If he doesn’t wake up today, he will lose by default.

But as long as he can wake up, Nangong Hao will be guaranteed to lie beneath his foot.

———-

Noon, the hot sun was high in the sky.

Nangong Hao was standing at a peak of the imperial city. There were small beads of sweat on his forehead and a very annoyed expression on his face. He then said in a tone full of blame: “Ninth Highness, how much longer until that bumpkin comes?”

“My guess is that he won’t be coming today.”

“Since he still hasn’t appeared by now, it looks like his heart doesn’t have Tang Tang or you, Ninth Highness. These types of people who disregard an emperor’s prestige should have all nine familial connections exterminated.”

Nangong Hao was extremely annoyed.

What kind of status did he have? What kind of status did Luo Tian have?

He had been waiting for half a day and not even Luo Tian’s shadow was seen. The worst thing about this was that he had to continue waiting, which was extremely humiliating for him.

Tang Jiu was trying to suppress the anger inside him as he said with a faint smile: “Brother Nangong, don’t be anxious. You made a ten day agreement with him but the tenth day isn’t over yet. If we knew this was going to happen, we should’ve made a ten day agreement with a specified time of the morning hours. That way, you would’ve already won by default.”

There was no other way.

Tang Jiu could only use this kind of method to delay the fight.

And to give Luo Tian more time.

————-

Half a day passed by yet Luo Tian still hadn’t woken up yet. Tang Jiu’s heart turned grim as he said internally: “Idol, how come you still haven’t shown up yet? If you still don’t show up, I really won’t be able to hold on any longer.”

Tang Tang was sitting off to the side with a dull and expressionless face.

At this moment…

The crowd of spectators sitting around the square that wanted to see a big battle started complaining.

“Isn’t that kid a bit too arrogant?”

“What are we waiting for? Just announce that Nangong Hao has won! That kid won’t show up. My guess is that he’s currently hiding in a dog’s hole shivering in fright!”

“That’s right!”

“Just make the announcement! Princess Lasting Peace and young master Nangong are a pair made in heaven. The two of them are practically a perfect match for each other. The Great Tang and Sea Cloud Sect will have a closer relationship with each other, so doesn’t that work out well? Why are we still even waiting?”

“…”

The crowd started clamoring and discussing this.

They were all outraged on behalf of Nangong Hao.

A long-awaited big battle ended in such a manner, which made them extremely annoyed.

At the same time…

Inside the hearts of the crowd, they clearly believed that Luo Tian wouldn’t show up because he was desperately afraid for his life.

If they were in Luo Tian’s shoes, they most likely wouldn’t show up either.

The result of showing up here would be death, so why would they make their own lives difficult like that?

Hearing the complaints getting louder as time passed, Tang Jiu’s frown became even deeper. He then inquired again: “Uncle Chen, has Uncle Wang returned yet?”

Chen Donglai shook his head and said: “He hasn’t. I’m afraid Luo Tian hasn’t woken up yet, sigh~…”

Tang Tang smiled bitterly as she muttered: “Ninth brother, you don’t understand how much pain Luo Tian has suffered. His body has been overexerted so don’t force him; let him rest a while longer. I will solve my matters by myself.”

Tang Jiu’s heart started aching as he looked at Tang Tang.

Around this time…

While still lying on the bed, Luo Tian’s body started twitching.

A stream of unparalleled energy containing dragon’s might coursed through his body. After being stimulated by this energy, the pain in his fleshly body felt like it had been alleviated by a lot.

“Hey kid, if you don’t wake up soon, my daughter will be marrying someone else.”

Dragon’s might?!
