Weapon Master

Chapter 199 - Hedonist Disciples

Tang Huan only felt as if an ice-cold sharp thorn pierced deep into his soul, he was actually in a trance, the movements on his hands also stopped for a moment, the vengeful spirit immediately escaped from the tip of the spear, and floated a few metres away, its body already becoming much weaker.

After personally experiencing the resentful spirits’ bizarre attacks, Tang Huan could not help but frown.

Although that kind of absent-minded state only lasted for a moment, and Tang Huan’s consciousness had already cleared, it still caused his face to become even more serious.

Fortunately, his current opponent was only a vengeful spirit. If he were to be suddenly attacked by a vengeful spirit while fighting the Martial Warriors, the consequences would be dire. For example, if he met a strong character like Chu Feng, in an instant, his life and death was decided. Once that happened, he wouldn’t even have a chance to escape.

”Ya!”

In a moment, another vengeful spirit screamed and pounced towards Tang Huan. This time, the sound did not have the power from before, but when Tang Huan’s spear pierced through the body, the sharp voice that made lose his consciousness resounded once again.

After the vengeful spirit successfully escaped, Tang Huan also returned to normal.

Could it be that this sound wave attack of the vengeful spirit could only display its greatest power in times of extreme danger? Tang Huan thought quickly, and suddenly realised that when Gu Ying blocked the specters’ attacks, he only forced them to retreat and did not kill them. It must have been because he suffered from such a strange method.

While he was thinking, Tang Huan immediately changed the method he used to control the Dragon and Phoenix Lance in his hand. As he quickly brandished it, the ”Nirvana Sacred Fire” continuously activated, the terrifying heat was like a raging storm, spreading out crazily, causing the surrounding plants to wither and wither at a speed so fast that the naked eye could see.

As the heat wave rolled, the surrounding vengeful spirits immediately screamed and retreated several meters away. They stopped attacking and seemed to be afraid.

”Someone’s coming to save us!”

”Bro, help!”

”Big brother, come and save me! What I have is gold coins!”

”...”

Excited shouts came out, and when the remaining ten-odd young men and women saw this, they looked like they had seen their lifeline, and Tang Huan’s method of easily forcing the vengeful spirits back, had allowed them to see even more hope. They all gathered over, and looked at Tang Huan with eyes filled with unconcealable excitement and ecstasy.

Their gathering caused a large number of vengeful spirits to rush over from the surroundings, shrieking one after another.

”Can you still stand up?” Tang Huan bellowed.

”Yes!”

Gu Ying seemed to have awoken from a dream. He, who was already exhausted, suddenly released a burst of energy that he did not know where, and with a loud shout, he leapt into the air and raised the greatsword in his hand. A moment later, the gigantic sword that had just dimmed down released a dazzling red glow, and was filled with heat.

”Whoosh!”

Tang Huan’s body was like a ray of light, quickly circling around the crowd as he swiftly thrusted out with his spear at a speed even the naked eye could not catch. When Tang Huan circled around and returned in front of Gu Ying, he had already stabbed out dozens of times. The hot waves churned and the vengeful spirits retreated in a flurry.

Although the vengeful spirit had no consciousness, it was still a type of living creature, possessing the instinct to fear death while alive.

The heat from the ”Nirvana Sacred Fire” continued to spread out through the dragon and phoenix spear, causing them to feel a little afraid. Although hundreds of vengeful spirits surrounded them from several meters away, they did not immediately rush over to attack, but instead bared their fangs and brandished their claws, ready to pounce on them.

The dozen young men and women became even more excited when they saw this.

Before, when the vengeful spirits frantically attacked them, nearly everyone of them had been lingering on the brink of death. Originally, they had thought that they would undoubtedly die. In their despair, they had already become somewhat hysterical.

However, he never would have thought that there would be someone who would save him in such a dangerous situation. Although he was not free yet, the attack of the vengeful spirit had temporarily stopped.

”What should I call you, brother?”

The one who spoke was a handsome young man with a slender figure. His white robe was completely stained with mud and he looked battered and exhausted, without a single trace of elegance. However, he was one of the few who was barely able to maintain his calm amongst the ten-odd people present.

”The heir to the Shi Family in Fallen God City, Shi Qian. My father, Shi Zhongda, is a great general of the Great Tang Empire. If you can save us today, we will definitely repay you in the future.”

The young man cupped his hands together, and a smile appeared on his face.

”Brother, I have two million gold coins with me. As long as you bring me out, I’ll give it all to you.”

”Big brother, my father is the head of the Tang Dynasty’s money grain department. If we return to the Glory Continent alive, I will immediately gift you 5 million gold coins!”

”...”

A few of the more brainy people started to fight each other to be the first to speak.

”Enough!”

When Gu Ying heard this, his face turned ashen, and he could no longer hold it in, and shouted angrily, ”You are still trapped in the vengeful spirit trap, what are you trying to do by spouting such nonsense? Our top priority right now is to escape from this place while the attacks of the vengeful spirits are on hold. ”

When everyone heard this, their expressions became unsightly.

They were not idiots either. Although the vengeful spirit was afraid of the warmth emitted from Tang Huan’s spear and did not attack them, it could not just watch them escape.

If the vengeful spirit didn’t chase out of Longquan, that would be good, but it had a high chance of escaping.

But was that possible? The vengeful spirits used to wander around the entire Sword Crafting Valley area. Although they were gathered now, when chasing and killing the enemy, how could they stop at the Ancient Dragon Spring Town? Dragon Spring Ancient Town was still hundreds of miles away from the nearest Dragon Spring Town. How could Tang Huan alone protect so many people and escape? In particular, many of them had almost used up all their Genuine Qi and were on the verge of collapsing.

Of course, if Tang Huan was only there to protect a few people, then his hopes were still high.

”Gu Ying, who do you think you are, dare to speak to me like that?” Immediately, a rather fat young man coldly snorted and laughed in a mocking manner.

”It’s one thing for a small Furious Waves City like you to not hold us responsible for this, but you actually dare to speak rudely to us again and again!”

”Together to escape? That’s easy to say, but this brother here is alone. With so many people with him, do you want to exhaust him to death? ”

”...”

”You, you two …”

The few men talked back to them, Gu Ying was so angry that his ears were red, his entire body was trembling. He had thought that these hedonistic Disciples were just greedy for life and scared of death, and were a little cowardly, but he never thought that he had overestimated them, and in this life or death situation, they had all revealed their true natures.

The remaining young men and women also came back to their senses, and their faces immediately turned pale.

”Tsk tsk, interesting. What you guys said was quite interesting. Why don’t you continue talking about it?” At this moment, a laugh suddenly rang out.
