Chapter 72 - Besieged and Kill, Desperate Situation

After hearing the fatty’s infuriating and unforgivable words, Jiang Feng’s qi stalled. That brief distraction let the beast’s massive tail catch him, hurling him far into the distance.

Gu Han couldn’t bear to watch any longer.

He’s too weak!

Although Jiang Feng’s cultivation level wasn’t high, with the Extreme Cold Physique combined with a Heaven-tier technique, he absolutely shouldn’t be this disheveled.

However, from the start of the fight until now, Jiang Feng didn’t even have the strength to fight back. He was being crushed and brutally beaten by the demonic beast. The demonic beast hadn’t lost a single hair, while Jiang Feng was already covered in wounds.

The fatty couldn’t bear to look. “Not a bit of combat experience, wasting such a good technique. You see, this technique is definitely not ordinary. Not only is its grade extremely high, but it also seems tailor-made for him. What a pity, a pearl covered in dust. If it were mine—”

Gu Han glanced at him. “Fatty, don’t entertain crooked ideas!”

The fatty felt somewhat guilty. “How could I! Do you think I’m that kind of person? Stealing from one’s own brother, would that still be human?”

In his heart, he was secretly calculating whether he could find an opportunity to swindle that technique from Jiang Feng.

Gu Han sneered incessantly. “You still know you’re human—

hm?

”

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly looked deep into the dense forest.

The fatty followed closely, also noticing the abnormality. He immediately narrowed his eyes. “Come out, you good-for-nothing bunch!”

Within the dense forest, Liu Tong froze. “Cousin, he discovered us.”

Jiang Hong’s face was as dark as water, not saying a word. He didn’t expect Gu Han’s spirit perception to be so powerful. He had only slipped over to check the situation, but he was discovered. What made him even more uncomfortable was Jiang Feng, whom he specifically left in the imperial capital as a joke.

However, it turned out that Jiang Feng also had a special physique. Just from the faint traces of coldness, Jiang Hong could tell that the technique Jiang Feng cultivated was more exquisite and profound than his Fire Dragon Art. How unacceptable!

Just then, the communication jade talisman in his storage ring suddenly vibrated.

Hm?

His heart stirred. This was the prearranged signal between him and Commander Zhou. The plan had succeeded.

The gloom in his heart swept away, even somewhat replaced by excitement. “Let’s go! Let’s send them on their final journey!”

Then, the three emerged, which hardly surprised Gu Han. Although he didn’t have the divine sense of a Divine Connection realm cultivator, his powerful spirit perception could naturally distinguish the aura of the newcomers.

Several other students hurriedly saluted Jiang Hong. “Your Highness!”

Gu Han shook his head and casually swung his sword. “Buzzkill.”

A flash of bright light passed, and the fierce beast that was one-sidedly tormenting Jiang Feng paused, then fell to the ground.

Jiang Hong’s pupils contracted.

He’s so strong... so much stronger than he was half a month ago. Still, what a pity. No matter how strong you are, you are destined to die here today.

Thinking of this, he calmed down again. Then, he turned to the rather disheveled Jiang Feng. “Seventh Brother, you surprised me.”

Jiang Feng steadied himself, his tone also calm. “Is that so? Being able to surprise you seems to be my honor.”

Since the banquet, Jiang Feng seemed to have overcome the obstacles in his heart, and let go of his past fear toward Jiang Hong.

Jiang Hong said, “I’ll give you a chance. The technique you used just now seems unusual, I’m somewhat interested. Why don’t you show it to me so I can appreciate it? I’ll let bygones be bygones regarding past matters, what do you say?”

“Who is this person, so arrogant, wanting to take possession of anything good he sees...” Unable to listen anymore, the fatty interjected, before glancing at Gu Han. “What is this called?”

Gu Han stared point blank at Fatty. “Shamelessness!”

The fatty’s face darkened.

Say it if you want, why are you looking at me?!

In Jiang Hong’s eyes, the fatty and Gu Han were already dead, so he couldn’t be bothered with them. “Seventh Brother, time is running out, and so is my patience.”

Jiang Feng took a deep breath. “Eldest Brother, Brother Gu is right, you are very shameless.”

A cold light burst from Jiang Hong’s eyes. “Oh, great. I hope you won’t regret it later.”

As soon as his words fell, Gu Han’s expression changed abruptly. Within his spirit perception, three powerful auras were rapidly approaching here.

The fatty was stunned. “What’s wrong? You—”

Before he finished speaking, he also detected the abnormality. “This... this isn’t right! Didn’t you say there was only Yu Hua? How did it become three?!”

Gu Han sighed. “We were careless.”

Opposite them, Liu Tong could no longer restrain himself, laughing triumphantly. “The three instructors have arrived, you just wait for death!”

Jiang Feng’s heart sank. He wasn’t stupid and understood what was happening. “How dare you! The three deputy deans are still watching, you actually dare to openly violate the martial academy’s rules—”

Liu Tong grinned. “Deputy deans? By the time they return, they probably won’t even find your corpses. None of you can escape.”

The fatty suddenly roared, “Brother Gu, let’s attack together, and fight them with all we’ve got!”

The moment he said that, he had already dashed out. Fatty ran away again! Surprisingly, he was headed for the dense forest. His movements were nimble, his figure extremely fast, disappearing from everyone’s sight in no time.

Shameless! Too shameless!

Everyone subconsciously thought.

Jiang Feng was furious. “He Zheng, we regarded you as a good friend, you... you...”

Only Gu Han seemed unsurprised by the fatty’s reaction. “Don’t worry. It’s too late, he can’t escape.”

Not even a second later, the fatty’s rather disheveled figure popped back in front of them. He was somewhat embarrassed. “

Ahem...

I am a person who values friendship, how could I escape? I... I was just scouting the path... don’t misunderstand...”

Right after, Yu Hua, Jiang Yi, and Chen Fang appeared before the crowd. They stood in three positions, completely blocking the trio’s escape routes.

Jiang Yi sneered incessantly. “Run, Fatty, run!”

“Dead Fatty, why aren’t you running?”

The fatty’s expression turned serious. “Guys... we have no past grievances, nor recent enmity, how about—”

Yu Hua sinisterly interrupted him, “Fatty, it’s too late to beg for mercy. None of you shall escape.”

The fatty was stunned for half a moment, then suddenly started cursing, “Motherfucker! I will definitely kill you today!”

The rest of the students had figured out what was happening, and were trembling with fear. They never imagined they’d fall into such a deadly trap right after escaping such a fierce beast!

Among them, one seemed to be Jiang Yi’s student. “Instructor Jiang, we... we are also willing to join!”

“Yeah! Gu Han has incurred the wrath of both heaven and man, we are willing to join in killing him!”

“Instructors, rest assured, we’ll definitely go all out and not let them escape. We’ll never reveal a single word about today’s events...”

Several people begged for mercy in succession. At that point, no one could afford to side with Gu Han.

“You guys are such fools! You think they will let you off?” Gu Han asked in a slightly mocking tone.

Sure enough, as his words fell, a powerful spirit qi instantly landed on several people. They died where they stood, not even given the chance to utter a scream.
