Chapter 1515 - 1514: Not Stooping to the Bald Monk's Level
"Xiao Yue, what were you saying, what did you just say?"He gripped Xiao Yue's hand back, his entire body trembling.
"I didn't say anything, if you didn't hear it clearly, just forget it, I won't say it again."
Embarrassing words should be said once, saying them twice, how could she have such thick skin?
"No, I heard everything you just said, don't think you can take back your words!"
After Xiao Yue said she wanted to give Geng Bucuo a chance, Geng Bucuo went from passive to active, seemingly unafraid of anything, taking the initiative and breaking through all his psychological defenses. Actions he dared not take and words he dared not speak were not a problem for Geng Bucuo.
Ten days later, Xiao Yue was completely recovered, and Geng Bucuo awkwardly led Xiao Yue by the hand, walking back and forth on the Kao Shan Sect's castle gate. The entire Kao Shan Sect was filled with the sour stench of this 'shameless couple's' romance, but it was generally agreed that it was about time these two came together.
"Geng Bucuo, do you think us walking hand in hand on the castle gate will make the brothers guarding the gate laugh at us?"
Xiao Yue struggled several times, trying to pull her hand away from Geng Bucuo, but Geng Bucuo's determination to hold Xiao Yue's hand was too strong. Xiao Yue struggled several times to no avail.
"Who dares to have an opinion? Holding my woman's hand is within the rules. No one would dare say anything. Rest assured."
Geng Bucuo reassured Xiao Yue, then spoke about how people in love should behave and used some brainwashing methods, finally managing to hold Xiao Yue's hand securely.
In Geng Bucuo's narrative, if Xiao Yue didn't hold Geng Bucuo's hand, it was a crime, a disrespect to men, with consequences as serious as the sky. Xiao Yue couldn't bear such heavy guilt.
While the two continued to rot in their romantic stench, something resembling a cannonball came hurtling toward the castle gate from outside.
"Whole town on alert!"
The Zijing City gate was shut tight, and upon hearing commotion outside, Xiao Yue immediately pushed Geng Bucuo down from the gate, while she stayed alone to guard it.
Xiao Yue was already stronger than Geng Bucuo, and with one push, Geng Bucuo couldn't easily come back up.
"Who goes there?"
Something like a cannonball struck the Kao Shan Sect's gate, but without causing any damage. It seemed with the assailant wasn't intending to destroy the Kao Shan Sect but was instead using it as a means to announce themselves.
This was quite a unique greeting.
"Xiao Yue, what's happening outside? Let me up, let's face this together."
Geng Bucuo shouted from below the gate. Whenever he tried to climb up, Xiao Yue flicked her sleeve and sent him back down.
Unable to get on the gate, Geng Bucuo wanted several times to open it, to see for himself what was going on, but he was stopped by the people below.
The Vice Sect Leader had ordered the whole city on guard, which meant defending the gate first, not heading out to give the enemy any chance.
However, standing on the gate was the woman he loved. If the enemy outside decided to attack, Xiao Yue would be the first to bear the brunt.
"Listen up inside, if you're wise, hand over Tang Rao immediately. If you're not, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Impolite?
What an imposing title!
Xiao Yue wanted to mock the old man outside, but faced with his pressure, she fell off the castle gate.
"Tang Rao must know I've arrived, right? Hahaha, if he doesn't show up, then I won't be polite. I'll take over Zijing City, and as for the people inside, none of them should dream of living. They'll all be buried with my dead grandson!"
Dead grandson?
Tang Rao hadn't been causing trouble for a long time; no one in Zijing City knew whose grandson Tang Rao had killed. Could this person seeking revenge have mistaken someone else as Tang Rao?
"You must be mistaken. Our Kao Shan Sect always convinces with virtue, who would kill your grandson? Don't pin that crime on our leader."
Apart from Xiao Yue, the brothers inside were exploding. If it weren't for Fang Jinxiu's brainwashing, emphasizing team spirit, military discipline, no individualism, no chaos, several hot-headed ones couldn't resist opening the gate and charging out to deal with the boaster outside.
"Ha, this Tang Rao isn't much of a man. Now that his deeds have been exposed, we come knocking, and he's hiding like a turtle?"
Zhou Runfa's beard puffed out in anger. He led the Eight Great Vajra from the West Island to the North Island, personally embarking on a journey, enduring so much, only to find a place in the North Island, then coming to Tingzhou. After this long and arduous journey, only to find he couldn't even get through the city gate, that sense of humiliation was something Zhou Runfa could not tolerate.
"Family Head, we Eight Great Vajra are willing to try breaking the gate, entering the city, and slaying the enemy. Please grant us permission!"
One of the Eight Great Vajra stepped forward, cupping his fist and requesting permission.
These Eight Great Vajra looked quite similar in appearance and build, covered in gold from head to toe. When they lined up and fought, it was hardly a good thing for anyone.
"No rush. If Tang Rao dared kill my grandson on the West Island, he will certainly show up. Let's wait a bit. If he still doesn't appear, it won't be too late to kill our way in."
According to the North Island people, Zijing City was a strange place, and Tang Rao was a peculiar person. The people inside always operated outside the norm. It took him days to decide to make a move and ensure Tang Rao had no burial place, but alas, upon arriving here, he couldn't even breach the city gate. He realized that conquering this gate and reaching Tang Rao wasn't going to be an easy task.
Outside the gate, the Eight Great Vajra stood upright and tall, looking down on the people inside as if they were dead. Their gaze was as if seeing those inside as lifeless objects.
Yes, if they wished, a mere thought could lay the others flat.
Inside the gate, Xiao Yue stood up from the ground, wiped the blood from her mouth, and exchanged a glance with Geng Bucuo, then sent a signal to Tang Rao to make strategic arrangements.
The deity who came knocking was looking for Tang Rao himself.
They were waiting to see what profound grudge Tang Rao had with the people outside the gate.
Tang Rao knew what happened outside long before the signal was sent. Since Zhou Runfa and the Eight Great Vajra embarked, Tang Rao had been aware of everything.
It's no exaggeration to call him skilled, as he had set up a Heavenly Net around Zijing City, monitoring everything happening within its coverage area, all under Tang Rao's control.
So why hadn't Tang Rao appeared at the gate to greet the provocateur initially?
Because he never intended to stoop to that bald-headed fool's level.
