Chapter 941: Elemental Fire
“Liu Heihu?”
Tang Hao was confused.
“Hmph! Are you still trying to deny it? Aren’t you Liu Heihu, the Ballsy Bro? How dare you rob me! I’ll teach you a lesson today!” The young man leading the group said ferociously.
“Teach that guy a lesson!” The people behind him shouted.
It took Tang Hao a while to figure out what was going on.
Liu Heihu was the same as him, famous in the borderlands but not that well-known further north. Someone from the borderlands must have recognized his signature move.
He laughed up his sleeve, thinking that he might as well push the blame to Liu Heihu.
“So I am! What can you possibly do to me? You’re not going to catch me alive!” He grunted angrily while striking a particularly arrogant pose.
Those people’s faces were contorted out of anger.
“Kill him!” They shouted ferociously.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Numerous figures pounced toward Tang Hao.
Tang Hao pretended to resist for a while before fleeing in panic. While doing so, he “accidentally” dropped his belt and his mask.
“Damn, he got away! Huh? What’s this?”
An old man picked up the belt on the ground and looked at it. “What an ugly cat!”
Then, he said in disbelief, “Wait… is this a tiger?”
“That can’t be! It’s clearly a cat, and an ugly cat too!”
The other people commented as they crowded around.
“This… indeed looks like a cat, but he calls himself the Black Tiger. It’s quite ugly, but it’s a tiger,” the old man said after thinking.
“Does it matter if it’s a cat or a tiger? Let’s go after him!”
Someone came to their senses and hurriedly gave chase.
More and more people received the news. They spread out and searched the area thoroughly.
They vowed to get rid of that menace once and for all.
However, they found nothing after searching for a long time. Instead, they found more victims piled up in mounds.
Everyone was furious when they saw that!
How dare that guy continue to commit crimes while everyone was searching for him? That was blatant contempt!
“That Liu Heihu is too arrogant! We must kill him!”
Everyone had the same thought.
Everyone knew that if they did not get rid of that menace, they could not dig for treasures in peace.
By then, Tang Hao had already stopped. He had already earned enough, and continuing to rob people would be a very risky proposition.
He changed back to his previous appearance, changed his clothes, and inserted himself into the crowd. He raised his arms and shouted, “Down with Liu Heihu!”
He shouted especially loudly, as though he hated all evil-doers.
The people beside him turned their heads to look.
“You have a great sense of justice, young man!” A middle-aged man praised Tang Hao.
“Isn’t that so!” Tang Hao said matter-of-factly, “Someone like Liu Heihu is simply too detestable. He should be drawn and quartered!”
“Well said!” The surrounding people praised him. Following that, they shouted, “Down with Liu Heihu!”
As they shouted, the crowd surged forward and continued their search.
Meanwhile, a figure appeared at the foot of Rainbow Mountain. He looked quite unremarkable, but he had a perverted sneer on his face.
“Heh! This is the perfect opportunity for me, Liu Heihu! I want my notoriety to spread in the southern region! They’ll remember my name.”
His gaze was passionate as he looked toward the interior.
This was the best opportunity to show off his skills.
His chest was burning with ambition, and he walked with a firm tread.
Soon, he could vaguely hear someone shouting coming from the miasma in front of him. He could not hear it clearly, but he caught the name “Liu Heihu.”
He was stunned and thought that he had misheard. He was not that famous in the southern region.
He listened carefully again and realized that they were shouting “Down with Liu Heihu.”
He began to panic.
“F*ck! I shouldn’t be afraid. I haven’t done anything yet!” He soon calmed down.
He had just arrived and had not robbed anyone, so why would they be hunting for him? Perhaps there was a second Liu Heihu that happened to have the same name as him. It was a big world after all.
He heaved a sigh of relief and began to wonder what the other Liu Heihu had done.
He continued walking in the direction of the shouts. Soon, he noticed a group of people walking toward him, and the two parties met face to face.
Both parties were stunned.
Liu Heihu was stunned because those people seemed hostile. They were gritting their teeth as if they had some blood feud with Liu Heihu.
He hesitated for a while before he nervously walked to the side to make way for the passing group.
However, someone in the crowd shouted suddenly, “That’s Liu Heihu! I saw his face earlier!”
The crowd was in an uproar.
“You die today, Liu Heihu!”
“You sure are a ballsy one, Liu Heihu! I hereby declare you an enemy of the Qing Kingdom! Even if you escape today, I will chase you to the ends of the earth!”
“And Yun Kingdom too!”
“And Mu Kingdom!”
The royalty shouted one after another.
Their eyes were bloodshot as they led their guards and charged forward.
Liu Heihu was dumbfounded.
‘Wait, what’s going on? They’re talking about me? That can’t be. I just got here! How did I offend everyone already?
‘All those people… are they princes and princesses?’
His whole body began to tremble when he realized that things were not going his way.
It seemed that someone pretended to be him, committed crimes using his name, and even offended those royalty.
“Dammit, who could it be?’
Liu Heihu wanted to blurt curses. Even he dared not offend so many royal families!
He wanted to be famous, but not too famous. It was no fun being hunted down day and night.
He turned around and began to run. Suddenly, he shouted “F*ck you!” as if he remembered something.
Who else would impersonate him, if not for Ballsy Bro?
‘It’s him again! It’s him again!’
Liu Heihu was furious. That guy had already framed him twice, and this was the third time.
“F*ck your ancestors, Ballsy Bro, I’ll kill you one day!”
He roared loudly and ran even faster.
The mob continued to chase him. After hearing the news, more people joined the mob. Liu Heihu eventually managed to get away, which frustrated many people.
“When I return, I will immediately issue a bounty for the head of that thief!” The crown prince of the Qing Kingdom said cruelly before going away.
After that, the people went back to digging. Tang Hao took out his pickaxe and started digging too.
In the next few days, more people came over and joined in the treasure hunt. Something good was unearthed every day, including ancient pills, intact Artifacts, spiritual materials, and so on.
However, that was the minority. Most people did not find anything good.
Tang Hao did not find much except for some crafting materials.
One day, he was digging in a corner when he heard a commotion coming from within the mountain. Then, someone ran out wildly while shouting.
“We’ve found a treasure! We’ve found a treasure! A supreme treasure!”
Everyone stopped digging and looked over.
That person stopped and took a deep breath. He said excitedly, “It’s a ball of fire! Elemental fire!”
