I Break through Crazily

”Wait!”

Seeing Tang Yi was about to make a move, Duan Dewen quickly stepped in front of Lil Tongfang. His expression darkened as he said, ”Young brother Tang Feng, aren’t you being a bit too domineering? Just because you have some strength and killed a few ordinary Mercenaries, you think the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps is a pushover? Let me tell you, no matter what mistakes our people have made, it’s our business to deal with them. You want to lay a hand on one of our own? Did you ask permission from us two old-timers?”

”Besides, although we did send people to cause trouble for your Tang Clan, we don’t know if they succeeded or not. My subordinate also said he didn’t send anyone else to retaliate against your Tang Clan. Therefore, the massacre you claim your clan suffered might not have anything to do with the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps!”

”Furthermore, let’s not even discuss whether the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps was involved in your clan’s massacre. Even if we were, you’ve now killed so many of our members. By any calculation, that should settle the score, shouldn’t it? What more do you want?”

Hearing Duan Dewen’s long-winded reasoning, Tang Yi was completely dismissive. He sneered, ”Bullshit! How can the lives of your Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps’ members compare to the people of my Tang Clan? Besides, my father’s fate is currently unknown. If you don’t hand him over, safe and sound, how could I possibly let this go?”

”Your father? What does his unknown fate have to do with us? I already told you, I lost contact with the men I sent out, and I didn’t send anyone else to your Tang Clan. His disappearance has nothing to do with the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps,” Lil Tongfang immediately retorted.

”Nothing to do with you? My father’s fate is unknown. Who else would have taken him besides your Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps? If you don’t hand him over today, I’ll turn this Wolf Fighting Slope into a Funnel Slope!” Tang Yi said viciously, showing no mercy.

The two sides were already in a life-and-death struggle with no room for concessions, so Tang Yi held nothing back.

However, with his father Tang Haotian’s fate still unknown, Tang Yi was willing to waste a few words on them. He hoped to get a lead on Tang Haotian’s whereabouts or force them to hand him over. Otherwise, he would have started taking his revenge long ago.

”Lil Tongfang, are you sure you weren’t the one who took young brother Tang Feng’s father?” Duan Dewen asked, turning to Lil Tongfang.

”Reporting to the Protector, this subordinate wouldn’t dare deceive you in any way. I truly had nothing to do with this. I swear I have never seen this Tang Feng’s father,” Lil Tongfang said earnestly.

”Mm.”

Hearing this, Duan Dewen nodded.

’At a time like this, Lil Tongfang definitely wouldn’t dare to lie. The consequences would be severe. So, what he’s saying should be true. He really didn’t abduct the boy’s father.’

After understanding the situation, Duan Dewen turned back to Tang Yi and proposed, ”Young brother Tang Feng, you heard him. We weren’t responsible for this, nor have we seen your father. So even if you demand him from us, we have no one to give you. Now, look, you’ve killed so many of our people, and we sent men to cause you trouble. We were both in the wrong on this matter. How about we call it even? Let’s say we’ve gotten to know each other through this conflict; there’s no need to fight to the death. Of course, we’ll help you keep an eye out for your father. If we find him or get any news, we’ll inform you immediately. How does that sound?”

”Protector, you can’t!”

”Protector, this man killed several thousand members of our Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps! We can’t just let it go!”

”He killed the few apprentices I valued most! If we let this go, how could I ever face them again?!”

”Protector, if you’re worried about implicating the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps, then this subordinate is willing to challenge this Tang Feng in a personal capacity! Let the two of us settle this grudge!”

”No matter what, we can’t let him leave the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps alive! Otherwise, how could our corps ever show its face in the world again?”

Hearing Duan Dewen’s words, the Purple Robe Mercenaries were all shocked. Not a single one of them agreed.

Even Duan Dewu, who was standing to the side, spoke up. ”Brother, we can’t just let it go! He killed thousands of our men! Thousands! All those lives just... gone! Down below, amidst the ice and snow, I can still see the terrified, despairing faces of those thousands of our Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps brothers. This Tang Feng has destroyed the very foundation of our corps. If we just let it go, how will we answer to the Corps Leader? How will we answer to all our dead? It would break everyone’s heart! Besides, this Tang Feng is just a disciple from some minor clan. So what if he’s strong? We have no reason to fear him.”

”That’s right, we don’t need to fear him!”

”Kill him! Kill him and avenge the dead!”

”We absolutely can’t let him get away!”

These words resonated with all the Purple Robe Mercenaries. They all clenched their fists, itching to kill Tang Yi on the spot.

He killed thousands of people, and now they were supposed to just call it even? Where in the world could you find a deal that good?

Besides, what did he take the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps for? A place you could just waltz in and out of as you pleased?

Especially after he killed thousands of their people. If he just walked away, the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps would become an absolute laughingstock.

However, the things the Purple Robe Mercenaries and Duan Dewu could think of... with Duan Dewen’s wisdom, was it possible he hadn’t considered them?

So why was Duan Dewen still trying to make peace with Tang Yi?

’Isn’t he afraid of being ridiculed? Isn’t he afraid he won’t be able to answer to the Corps Leader? Isn’t he afraid of disheartening everyone?’

He was afraid. Of course, he was afraid.

But even so, Duan Dewen had to do it. He had his own considerations.

Otherwise, with one man causing such chaos on Wolf Fighting Slope, how could he, the Right Protector of the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps, possibly let the matter rest?

But...

’In the current situation, it’s better to let the matter rest.’

’After all, I can’t see through this young man at all. If we recklessly fight to the death, our losses might be even greater. These dozens of Purple Robe Level members around me might all end up as collateral damage.’

’That boy named Tang Feng claims he’s from a minor clan?’

’As long as you’re not blinded by rage, as long as you have half a brain, you would never believe such a childish lie.’

’How could a disciple from a minor clan possess such heaven-defying power?’

’How would a disciple from a minor clan dare to seek revenge against the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps?’

’Putting everything else aside, just look at his strength.’

’Killing thousands of people in an instant, all by himself... is this the work of some simple character? Could he really be from a minor clan?’
