Chapter 1223: Chapter 1223: Old and Unrepentant Is a Villain

Lu Xiaobu arrived at the Thunder God E-sports Hall.

At this moment, the Thunder God E-sports Hall couldn’t really be called an entertainment venue anymore. If someone said it’s the best Martial Arts Hall in the Heavenly Dynasty, people would believe it.

Nonsense, where else could you gather thirty Grandmasters, if not here?!

Lu Xiaobu stepped inside.

As soon as he entered, an immense pressure swept over.

Even Zhang Meng and Li Jin, who weren’t the primary targets, were forced to retreat!

Zhang Meng was even more terrified in his heart, this pressure was far stronger than Mo Wentian’s!

However, Lu Xiaobu didn’t move at all; he stood still and looked up with a cold smile: "Stop hiding, come out! Wanna test me? Then let’s fight, a battle with clear victory and defeat, life and death!"

He knew very well that those late-arriving Grandmasters didn’t believe Lu Xiaobu could kill a Grandmaster, so they were testing with pressure.

Moreover, he understood clearly that now he couldn’t be timid, he had to be tough and show a stance of crushing a Grandmaster!

As soon as he said this, the pressure instantly withdrew!

They had already gotten the story from the previous fifteen Grandmasters and even personally visited the battlefield.

Coupled with Lu Xiaobu now treating the pressure like it’s nothing, it made them even more convinced that Lu Xiaobu had indeed crushed a Grandmaster.

Given this, no matter what methods Lu Xiaobu used, they couldn’t treat him as an insignificant ant!

Plus, with Lu Xiaobu’s crazy personality, it’s better not to provoke him if avoidable!

After all, Mo Wentian’s death seems somewhat unjustified. Who would’ve thought that a Grandmaster participating in a Master Token event would lose his life because of a servant!?

His head even ended up being sent to the funeral for offering!?

Of course, this was because they didn’t know about the little girl, some guessed there was another reason, but they didn’t think further.

After a moment of silence, someone spoke up.

"Ye Changsheng, you should explain why the Master Token event was called, it’s been delayed long enough!"

Once these words were spoken, the room fell silent again.

Grandmasters hold their status; many things wouldn’t be said directly.

They merely imply in secret.

Like now, why bring up the Master Token event? And directly asking Ye Changsheng?!

This implied that the matter of Lu Xiaobu killing Mo Wentian was over!

At least, the person who spoke didn’t want to dwell on it anymore!

Then came a sigh, it was from Blood Prince.

After sighing, he also spoke: "Yes, we should talk about the Master Token event!"

Blood Prince gave up too!

Even if he didn’t want to, he had no choice!

Soon after, Zuo An, Wu Weizi, Ling Xiaozi, Ni Huang, Master Zhi Xing, and the ten-plus Grandmasters who arrived first also spoke up.

They indicated they wouldn’t delve deeper into this matter!

Mo Wentian had done horrible deeds anyway, now that he’s dead, so be it!

Subsequently, more and more of the later-arriving Grandmasters also expressed their stance!

In the end, only two Grandmasters had not spoken.

These two were truly ancient figures!

Their silence indicated they still had issues with this matter!

"Lu Xiaobu, don’t you have something to say?" said an aged voice.

The speaker was Chou Gan, a real ancient figure!

Even when Ye Changsheng got involved with Jianghu affairs, Chou Gan was already a Grandmaster! 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Living long enough, he valued the status of a Grandmaster greatly!

It’s understandable, being a Grandmaster for so many years brought him everything!

Now, with a Grandmaster suddenly crushed, his internal pride seemed crushed too!

How could he easily let it go?!

"Say? What’s there to say? Still the same words, life and death are light, confident in fighting, come here now, let’s settle it life and death!" Lu Xiaobu stepped forward aggressively!

"Such audacity!" The old voice growled in anger.

"Crash!"

From the middle of the Thunder God E-sports Hall came the sound of clothes rapidly flapping through the air.

An old man, face full of wrinkles, almost obscuring his eyes, jumped down from the sixth floor.

A seemingly crippled old man landed gently, unharmed!

He lifted his head, gazing at Lu Xiaobu with cloudy eyes: "I, Chou Gan, would like to have a lesson!"

Seeing Chou Gan, Ni Huang and Zuo An among others felt their hearts skip.

Chou Gan was going to fight Lu Xiaobu?!

"Chou Gan? That’s actually a fitting name! ’Begging to Fight?’" Lu Xiaobu sneered, stepping forward: "And don’t say I’m bullying the old, you wanna fight! Come on, you make the first move!"

His words at that moment brimmed with provocation.

Even a sense of aggressive dominance!

"You seek death!" Chou Gan’s face darkened, wrinkles starting to stretch, showing he was about to explode!

"Come on!" Lu Xiaobu stepped forward again: "Old geezer! Don’t effin’ scare me! This young master isn’t fazed, if you’ve got the guts, come! I managed to kill one, I can kill two!"

Just as he finished speaking, Lu Xiaobu withstood Chou Gan’s formidable presence and stepped forward once more.

Now, only less than five steps separated Lu Xiaobu from Chou Gan!

Five steps, to a Grandmaster, that’s a blink of an eye!

The situation was about to explode, the air around was charged with tension!

Chou Gan squinted at the young man before him, and after a while, suddenly burst into laughter: "Good boy, with guts! We’ll let this matter rest!"

Finishing, Chou Gan retracted his aura, returning to that frail old appearance!

Some might ask, why so sudden?!

Actually, it wasn’t sudden at all!

Aura, to a large extent, represents the difference in combat power between both sides.

Chou Gan was confident that any Grandmaster there couldn’t approach him within five steps without showing a reaction!

However, Lu Xiaobu showed none!

This proved Lu Xiaobu’s strength!

Since his strength was proven, why bother with self-infliction?!

Even if he killed Lu Xiaobu, what would it prove?!

Moreover, there’s wisdom in "fear the youthful prowess"; this isn’t just talk!

If fought seriously, even if he got injured, he might end up dying!

He’s old now, doesn’t wish to fall unnecessarily over such matters.

He still wishes to live decades more and witness the world’s changes!

Lu Xiaobu rolled his eyes, too lazy to retort!

See, "an old man living remains a thief," applies to people like him!

Initially aggressive, seeming unyielding, but when things look unfavorable, cowers immediately!

What crap honor, you only have honor if you can win!

Can’t win? Honor’s worthless?!

Lu Xiaobu gambled they’d not dare to play along, gambled they weren’t as crazy!

And now, it seems his gamble was right!

Up next, he prepared to have them serve him tea, hahaha!
