Legendary Armament Canon Novel - Chapter 1136
1136 Obstruction, Compensation (2)
“Wang Xuanyi, what right do you have to make decisions?!” Shang Qiuzi shouted.
Wang Xuanyi turned around, his eyes cold, his entire body brimming with killing intent. “With the sword in my hand!”
Wang Xuanyi’s sharp sword qi locked onto Shang Qiuzi.
“If any of you are unconvinced, you can ask the sword in my hand!
“Believe it or not, although it’s impossible for me to kill all five of you with Brother Zhou, I can definitely drag the two of you down with me!”
Wang Xuanyi’s clothes fluttered, and his killing intent was almost tangible.
Shang Qiuzi and the others were stunned. Damn it, another lunatic!
Wang Xuanyi was publicly acknowledged as the number two in the world, and he was slightly stronger than Shang Qiuzi and the others.
If he really wanted to fight to the death with a Grotto-Heaven Master, he could still do it.
Besides, there was another lunatic now.
If this lunatic really stalled four people and let Wang Xuanyi stare at one person, the targeted person might really follow in Tang Lan’s footsteps.
They cursed in their hearts. Damn it. This matter has nothing to do with us to begin with. Why did we have to get involved in this mess?
Originally, they had just come to watch the show. Who would have thought that things would reach this extent?
Make them fight to the death?
What were they after?
Thinking of this, everyone, including Shang Qiuzi, wanted to retreat.
If Tang Lan was still alive, they would still risk it for Tang Lan’s sake.
But now that Tang Lan was dead, were they going all out to avenge him?
Who was Tang Lan? Was he worth them risking their lives to avenge him?
Although they already had the intention to retreat, Shang Qiuzi and the others were Grotto-Heaven Masters after all. They still had to save face.
“Wang Xuanyi, do you think you can scare us?” Shang Qiuzi said loudly with a dark expression. “We’re not afraid of you! Even if the two of you join forces, the five of us are not afraid at all!”
The other four nodded.
Shang Qiuzi continued, “But Grotto-Heaven Masters are pillars of the human race. If we fight to an internecine outcome, we will only benefit those demonic beasts.”
Wang Xuanyi sneered.
Zhou Shu said disdainfully, “It will be better for the human race if you malignant tumors are removed. An internecine outcome? With just you?”
Shang Qiuzi’s chest heaved violently. He took a few deep breaths and suppressed the anger in his heart.
He pretended not to hear Zhou Shu. I’ll take it that you’re just a dog barking. Damn it!
He looked at Wang Xuanyi and said coldly, “For the sake of the human race, we will take a step back today and not lower ourselves to your level…”
“That’s right. The human race is the most important,” said another Grotto-Heaven Master.
“The overall situation is what matters most!” The other Grotto-Heaven Masters echoed.
Zhou Shu sneered.
Wang Xuanyi couldn’t be bothered with these people. He turned to Zhou Shu and said in a deep voice, “Brother Zhou, I know you’re unhappy, but killing them now will do more harm than good.
“We can contribute to the human race by keeping them alive.
“Brother Zhou, although it seems that the Demon Realm and the human race have temporarily reached a balance, the danger hasn’t been eliminated. You should know that once the balance is broken, it won’t be a good thing for us.
“If the human race is weak, it may not affect you much, Brother Zhou, but your brothers will likely be in danger.”
Wang Xuanyi wasn’t good with words, but it was precisely because of this that he sounded even more sincere.
Zhou Shu frowned slightly.
He didn’t know much about the current strength of the Demon Realm.
But what Wang Xuanyi said made sense. If a war broke out between the Demon Realm and the human race, the ordinary soldiers would definitely suffer heavy casualties.
This was a fact that even Zhou Shu couldn’t change.
These tyrannical scum deserved to be killed. But if he killed them, it would indeed cause casualties to the soldiers. So he was hesitating.
“Brother Zhou, the dead can’t be revived, but they still have families and children,” Wang Xuanyi continued. “Now that Tang Lan is dead, as long as we kill the culprit, Tang Qianluo, their spirits in heaven can rest in peace.
“You can do whatever you want with the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven. You can use the resources of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven to make up for it. This way, it’s better for them and the human race, don’t you think?”
Shang Qiuzi and the others snorted. Although they were dissatisfied that Wang Xuanyi had given up the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven just like that, they didn’t dare to say anything now.
They were really a little afraid that Zhou Shu and Wang Xuanyi would continue to cause trouble. These two lunatics dared to risk their lives for something without benefits.
Who would be willing to fight them to the death?
Zhou Shu pondered for a moment and raised his voice. “Yang Hong!”
“Here!” Yang Hong flew over in response, looking excited. “Your Highness!”
Zhou Shu said, “Yang Hong, you’re the King of Men now. Tell me, what should we do?”
He had heard Ji Lutian mention the King of Men before.
Back then, he had felt that Yang Hong’s luck was better than that of ordinary people. But he didn’t expect that a constable could really become a King of Men.
“Your Highness, don’t make fun of me. Don’t you know what kind of person I am?” Yang Hong smiled bitterly. Others might not know him, but Zhou Shu knew.
Back then, Yang Hong was still a constable of the Divine Constable Bureau, while Zhou Shu was still a Forging Apprentice of Great Xia’s Forging Division.
At the time, the two of them had even dealt with a Grand Craftsman.
When Yang Hong thought of these trivial matters, a smile appeared on his lips.
Seeing Zhou Shu return, he felt really good.
“Everything is up to you, Your Highness. If you want to fight, we’ll fight. If you want to make peace, we have no objections,” Yang Hong said.
“Nonsense,” Zhou Shu said angrily. “After becoming the King of Men, you have improved greatly in beating around the bush.”
“Hehe.” Yang Hong chuckled, but he didn’t feel embarrassed.
In front of Zhou Shu, he didn’t need to hide anything at all.
“But Your Highness, I think what this senior said makes sense. Although Shang Qiuzi and the others are not good people, they have never directly targeted us. There’s no harm in letting them go,” Yang Hong said seriously.
“All these years, the only one who has been targeting us is the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.
“Now that you’ve killed Tang Lan, if we kill Tang Qianluo now, we will have avenged most of our brothers.
“Why don’t we do as this senior says? Let’s take down the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven and place our brothers’ families in it. It can be considered fulfilling their last wish.”
Zhou Shu nodded. He really didn’t like Shang Qiuzi and the others, but as Wang Xuanyi and Yang Hong had said, killing them wasn’t that important now.
Even if Zhou Shu wanted to kill them, it wouldn’t be so easy.
Since Wang Xuanyi could come, so could the other Grotto-Heaven Masters.
The chances of him successfully killing Shang Qiuzi and the others were not high to begin with.
After killing Tang Lan, the master of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, Shang Qiuzi and the others would restrain themselves in the future.
If they didn’t restrain themselves, it wouldn’t be too late to kill them then.
Now that Zhou Shu was back, this world couldn’t tolerate anyone acting so tyrannically again!
“Senior Wang, I’ll give you face today and let it go for the time being. But if I see anyone acting recklessly in the future, don’t blame me for being ruthless,” Zhou Shu said coldly.
Shang Qiuzi and the others snorted coldly, but they still didn’t say anything.
Wang Xuanyi nodded and said, “If that day really comes, I will fight with you.”
“Tang Qianluo must die. Also, I want the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven. All those surnamed Tang in the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven must get out. Otherwise, I don’t mind eliminating them.” Zhou Shu snorted.
Tang Qianluo fell to the ground weakly. He knew that he was dead meat.
“Yes.” Wang Xuanyi nodded. With a few words, he had already decided the fate of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.
