Chapter 46. Chapter 46. An Eccentric Person

Jiang Shi came well-prepared, and she was utterly determined to force Tang Xuan to submit and return to the Tang family.

Therefore, she had orchestrated all of this in advance, and these martial practitioners were hired at a great cost from Kyoto.

However, she shared the exact same mindset as Huang Fei.

Neither of them expected Tang Xuan to inherit the Tang family, nor did they wish to see such a thing happen.

Tang Xuan possessed the means to save lives, and what they wanted was for Tang Xuan to cure Tang Tian.

The reason they held this thought was essentially because they were unwilling to admit that abandoning Tang Xuan back then had been a wrong decision.

They firmly believed that as long as Tang Tian could recover, the Tang family would undoubtedly rise to glory once again.

"Tang the Sixteenth, this is not the Su family's hotel. She cannot protect you. Will you kneel down yet?"

Huang Fei sneered, finally able to vent her pent-up frustration.

"You surely don't think you can be a match for these people, do you?"

Tang Xuan smiled and said, "You guessed right. I haven't even deigned to look at these pieces of trash."

As soon as these words fell, the dozen or so martial practitioners instantly flew into a rage.

"Such utter arrogance from a mere brat!"

"I'm going to break your dog legs and make you pay the price for running your mouth."

"So much pointless chatter."

Tang Xuan instantly burst into action, his figure moving as fast as lightning.

"Holy crap, they're fighting!"

"Quick, quick, come watch the show."

"Being swarmed by over a dozen martial practitioners, can this young man possibly hold his ground?"

Countless onlookers stopped in their tracks.

"What's even the point of watching? One look at these martial practitioners tells you their cultivation realms are not low; how could this young man possibly be a match for them?"

"Do you see that old woman? Her name is Jiang Shi, and she is the head of the Kyoto Tang family. I wonder what grave taboo this young man violated to actually provoke such an old hag."

"I've heard that this old woman is domineering and holds grudges fiercely. Crossing paths with her never ends well."

In the flash of a spark, people began screaming and collapsing one after another.

Tang Xuan's figure darted back and forth like rolling thunder.

The dozen or so martial practitioners failed to last even a single minute.

"This..."

"Just like that, he won!"

"To think this young man is actually this powerful!"

"Did you see the child on his shoulder? He was sitting so steadily, and didn't fall off no matter how fast he moved."

"A remarkable person, truly a remarkable person!"

Jiang Shi stared at everything before her in sheer disbelief.

This outcome was something she had never, in her wildest dreams, expected.

This was the second time Huang Fei had witnessed Tang Xuan in action with her own eyes.

Although his arena battle against Zhou Zhuoyi last time had shocked her greatly, Zhou Zhuoyi was, after all, only at the Xunfeng Realm.

Yet the people the old lady brought this time included powerhouses at the Zhenlei Realm!

Even a Zhenlei Realm expert was so utterly vulnerable before him?

Could it really be that Qin Feng was killed by him?

Huang Fei found it hard to believe.

She had always assumed that Qin Feng's death was the work of someone standing behind Tang Xuan.

But looking at it now...

Tang Xuan walked right up to Jiang Shi.

"Old thing, if you can only hire these good-for-nothings next time, don't bother wasting my time."

"Do you know why I'm not killing you?"

Jiang Shi's body trembled. Even though deep down she felt immense terror, she still forced herself to maintain a composed expression.

"Do you dare?"

"It's not that I don't dare, but rather, I am reserving this vengeance for him."

Only Tang Xuan knew the true meaning behind those words.

Amidst the crowd, Tang Xuan departed with an air of carefree detachment.

"Mom, he... he's terrifyingly strong. Could we have been wrong?"

Gritting her back teeth, Jiang Shi said with bitter resentment, "How could I possibly be wrong!"

"I am not wrong, I cannot possibly be wrong!"

Not long after Tang Xuan walked away, a Maybach blocked his path.

The rear window slid down, and a middle-aged man said with a beaming smile, "Where is young man headed? Let me give you a ride."

People do not visit temples for nothing.

Though Tang Xuan did not recognize this man, he was certain the other party's intentions went far beyond simply offering a ride.

Getting into the car, Tang Xuan said, "Biyun Hotel."

"My name is Gan Kun."

"Tang Xuan."

Gan Kun smiled and said, "To have such formidable combat skills at such a young age, you truly are a hero among youths."

Tang Xuan said indifferently, "Looking for me for something?"

"I do love a straightforward young man like you."

"To be honest with you, I indeed hope you can do me a favor."

Gan Kun had recently run into a massive trouble. An old enemy of his had returned to Junyang City and openly declared he was coming back to exact revenge.

This matter had become a heavy boulder crushing Gan Kun's heart, keeping him awake through many sleepless nights.

Gan Kun had sought out several local experts in Junyang City, but the moment they heard the background of his adversary, they shut their doors and refused to meet guests in sheer fright.

Just now, Gan Kun had witnessed Tang Xuan's impressive martial arts, which was why he wanted to enlist his help.

"Helping is fine. How much?"

Just as Tang Xuan was fretting over where to make some money, Gan Kun had delivered himself right to his doorstep.

"As long as you can kill him, I'll give you one hundred million."

"Stop the car."

"Two hundred million!"

"Is your life only worth two hundred million?"

Gan Kun gritted his teeth.

"Little brother, just name your price. My total net worth is not even one billion."

"Eight hundred million."

"Little brother, aren't you being a bit too excessive!"

"Stop the car."

Gan Kun took a deep breath.

At that moment, Gan Kun's phone rang.

The call came from an unknown number, but the moment he answered, the voice on the other end was intensely familiar.

"Gan Kun, I bet you didn't think this bastard could still return alive, did you?"

Gan Kun's eyelids twitched violently.

"Yuan Zhao, the events of back then were not solely my fault. Why must you refuse to let this go?"

"I'll give you two days. Feel free to find as many helpers as you want. Tomorrow night at the Lang Garden in the west of the city, be there. I will only kill you. If you don't show up, I will slaughter your entire family."

The call was disconnected.

Seething with rage, Gan Kun punched the car window.

He glanced over at Tang Xuan.

"Little brother, I'll pay you eight hundred million. Do you dare to go?"

Tang Xuan smiled and said, "Not only can I go, but I can also help you kill him."

Gan Kun sneered, "I hope your strength is as stiff as your mouth."

"As long as you can kill him, I'll give you eight hundred million."

Surviving meant having infinite opportunities to make money.

If this kid was no match for Yuan Zhao, he wouldn't even need to pay the eight hundred million.

From Gan Kun's perspective, this transaction was a win-win.

However, he did not place all his hopes solely on Tang Xuan.

After all, this was a life-or-death crisis; Gan Kun needed more trump cards.

Meanwhile.

Su Qing had returned to the Su family courtyard.

She was eager to share the good news with Su Hu, but since Su Hu was still resting, she had no choice but to wait outside his bedroom door.

"Uncle Zhan, I ran into someone who used to be a Shunzi, but is now a high-level expert at the Zhenlei Realm."

"He said he has a way to cure Grandpa. Do you think that's possible?"

There was no one beside Su Qing.

Yet the moment her voice trailed off, Zhan Ling materialized beside her like a phantom.

"Miss, you must have been deceived."

"Although a Shunzi can be altered by a Tianqian Realm powerhouse, a Tianqian Realm powerhouse would never stoop to doing such a thing."

Su Qing said, "But he really used to be a Shunzi."

Zhan Ling smiled and said, "Perhaps he was merely faking being a Shunzi. Who can truly know?"

"Besides, even if he genuinely was altered by a Tianqian Realm powerhouse, he is merely at the Zhenlei Realm right now. How could he possibly cure your grandfather?"
