"Oh, Du Tao, you're going to be rich! Senior Hao Tian came looking for you in person," Du Tao's companions, who didn't know what was going on, yelled enviously.
No wonder he thought so. Hua Haotian was number one on the Heaven Leaderboard, the future Head of the Zi Yang School. Being summoned by him was no different than being summoned by the Head of the Zi Yang School.
"Rich my ass," Du Tao smiled wryly.
He'd kept the previous incident to himself and never mentioned it to anyone. He didn't even participate in other people's discussions, so the people around him didn't know why Hua Haotian came looking for him.
"If you don't want to go, how about you give me the opportunity?" the person said.
Du Tao was in no mood to talk to him. He stood up and walked outside quickly.
With every step he took, he found that his heart was beating faster and faster. That kind of torment was really not a good feeling.
When he arrived outside, he saw Hua Haotian and the others with unfriendly expressions.
"Senior Apprentice Brother Vast Heaven, I wonder … why did you come to find me, Du Tao … for?" Du Tao realized that he was stuttering.
He said this because he was hoping for a fluke.
"It's like this. Your Senior Hao Tian wants to talk to you about something. Do you have time?" Wen Fu asked.
"Of course." Du Tao nodded.
"Then follow Senior Hao Tian to the forest over there," Wen Fu continued.
"The forest?" Hearing this, Du Tao's voice trembled even more.
It was fine in a crowded place, but what if they killed him in the forest? He didn't want to die. Du Tao's mind was in a mess. He even had the unrealistic thought of silencing him by killing him.
"What, you don't want to go?" Wen Fu frowned.
As the other party's tone became heavier, Du Tao's mind immediately buzzed and he immediately knelt on the ground. "Senior Brother Hao Tian, Senior Brothers … Please let me go … I will definitely … definitely tell you everything I know …"
Seeing Du Tao like this, Wen Fu and the others' faces twitched. They didn't think Du Tao would be this cowardly.
Hearing Du Tao's words, Hua Haotian immediately had a bad premonition in his heart. This was because Du Tao's actions clearly showed that they were hiding something that day. In other words, the matter of Nangong Yi being forcefully kissed was most likely true.
"What do you know?" Hua Haotian's face darkened. "What do you know?"
If Du Tao, who was as timid as a mouse, told the truth in front of everyone, where would Hua Haotian hide his face?
"I …" Du Tao was stunned.
Wen Fu, who was quick-witted, immediately said, "Du Tao, Senior Brother Hao Tian only asked you to go to the grove to discuss something. He won't do anything to you."
"Is … is that so?" Du Tao stuttered. He found himself in a complete mess.
However, since the other party had mentioned it time and time again, the consequences would be unimaginable if he didn't go. Thus, he finally moved his feet and walked towards the small forest nearby.
Such a scene was naturally seen by many people from De Wu Peak, and they immediately started discussing.
"What exactly are these Senior Brothers looking for Du Tao for?"
"Could it be that Du Tao is that mysterious person?"
"You're thinking too much. If Du Tao is that mysterious person, I'll definitely eat this rock on the ground."
"Then why are they looking for Du Tao?"
"Who knows? Maybe Du Tao did something to make them unhappy."
…
While these people were whispering, Du Tao, who was trembling in fear, followed Hua Haotian to the small forest.
As soon as they arrived at a place where there was no one else, Hua Haotian immediately asked impatiently, "Du Tao, what exactly happened that day?"
"Which … day?"
"It was the day when you said that Nangong Yi demonstrated the Soaring Fragrance Palm to you." Hua Haotian's face was already so gloomy that it was about to drip water.
After confirming that the other party was asking about that day, Du Tao dejectedly told them everything that happened that day.
After hearing the truth, Hua Haotian's face became even more gloomy. A wave of anger immediately rose in his heart. After a loud roar, he fiercely slammed his palm on a tree beside him that was so thick that it would take ten people to wrap their arms around it.
With a cracking sound, the tree was directly broken by Hua Haotian's palm. As for Du Tao, who was beside him, he was accidentally affected by the palm energy that erupted from Hua Haotian's palm.
Due to the sudden attack and the fact that Du Tao was distracted, he did not have the time to block it and was directly sent flying several meters away.
Fortunately, the center of Hua Haotian's palm energy was not on his body, or else it would have directly taken his life. Even so, Du Tao could still hear the sound of his ribs breaking.
Fortunately, at this moment, Hua Haotian directly turned around and left. Otherwise, if he came over and gave him another palm attack, he would definitely die.
Although he felt that Hua Haotian would not do such a thing, the affairs of the world were unpredictable. Who could predict it?
Seeing Hua Haotian walk out of the small forest with a gloomy face, Wen Fu and the others very wisely did not ask Hua Haotian what he learned from Du Tao. They did not even need to think to know that Hua Haotian must have confirmed that Nangong Yi was really kissed by force.
Thinking of so many possibilities, they were naturally surprised at who would dare to do such a daring thing.
After that, they silently followed behind Hua Haotian, who was like a volcano that could erupt at any time.
After a while, they finally let out a sigh of relief. This was because Hua Haotian was able to somewhat control the anger in his heart.
"In this Purple Sun Sect, other than me, who do you think can defeat Junior Yi?" Hua Haotian suddenly said.
Could it be that Junior Yi was really kissed by force, and that person's strength was completely because of Junior Yi? Hearing Hua Haotian's words, Wen Fu and the others were immediately shocked.
They only thought that this matter was groundless accusations or that there was some hidden story behind it. They did not think that it was actually true.
"Other than the top ten of the Sky List, there is no one who can withstand more than ten attacks from Junior Yi. As for the top ten of the Sky List, they can at most withstand ten more attacks from Junior Yi. It is impossible for them to defeat Junior Yi," Wen Fu said without thinking.
He was one of the top ten of the Sky List, so he naturally knew the strength of the others.
"Yes, there is no one who is a match for Junior Yi," the other two who came with him said in unison.
"Then who on earth defeated Junior Yi?" Hua Haotian said coldly.
He did not say what Du Tao had said, because from what Du Tao said, Junior Yi did not even have the strength to fight back against that person.
"I do not know," Wen Fu shook his head.
"Recently, Linlong has been very strong. He even injured Senior Haoran. Could it be him?" One of the other two said.
"It can't be him. I know Linlong's strength. He is only at the Lv 8 Martial Master Realm. It is impossible for him to defeat Junior Yi," Wen Fu said.
"Indeed, it is impossible. Junior Yi's Lingxiang Palm has reached perfection. She has completely inherited Martial Aunt Li's skills. It is impossible for Linlong to defeat her."
The other two agreed as well.
Hua Haotian did not speak because he thought the same as the others. He did not think that Linlong could defeat Nangong Yi, let alone defeat Nangong Yi as Du Tao had said.
"Does this mean that there is a hidden talent in the Purple Sun Sect?"
"That is very likely."
After a discussion, they came to this conclusion.
"No matter who it is, once I find him, I will tear him into pieces!" Hua Haotian said fiercely.
He had already regarded Nangong Yi as his woman. How could he allow others to touch her?
Although he did not think that the person was Linlong, he had undoubtedly regarded Linlong as a suspect. After all, no one was better at stirring up trouble than Linlong.
Of course, even if Linlong was not the person who had forced a kiss on Nangong Yi, he would not let Linlong off. Linlong was the person who had crippled his brother Hua Haoran's limbs.
It could be said that Linlong's hatred for him was irreconcilable.
He was now waiting for an opportunity. Once Linlong came out of the dungeon, he would find a chance to cripple him and avenge his brother.
After Hua Haotian and the others left De Wu Peak, Du Tao carefully walked out of the forest with a pained expression. Although he had already taken a healing medicine, a few of his ribs had been broken. It was impossible for him to recover so quickly.
The news of Du Tao's injuries quickly spread through the entire De Wu Peak.
After hearing about this, Fei Jia immediately went to find his Senior Brother Fei De angrily.
"Senior Brother, Hua Haotian is too arrogant. He dared to come to De Wu Peak and beat someone up. After that, he swaggered off. It is obvious that he does not respect De Wu Peak. He is even more despicable than Linlong. If we do not report this to the Sect Leader, he will not be able to vent his anger." Fei Jia complained.
"Let's drop this matter for now." Fei De shook his head and said, "The Sect Leader is still burning with anger because of Hua Haoran. If we report this matter, I'm afraid he will not pay any attention."
"Could it be that our disciple was injured for nothing?" Fei Jia said unwillingly.
"He is only an ordinary disciple. It is not a big deal for him to be injured. Moreover, if this matter were to spread, it would not affect our De Wu Peak. After all, this disciple is too insignificant." Fei De said.
"Senior Brother?" Fei Jia could not help but feel a little anxious when he heard that Fei De wanted to keep the peace.
"Alright, let's talk about this later. Junior Brother, you can leave first." Fei De waved his hand and said.
Seeing Fayde like this, Feja could only helplessly walk out.
Looking at Fei Jia's back, Fei De could not help but shake his head and mumble to himself, "Junior Brother, you still cannot see through him. With Hua Haotian's ability, I'm afraid that his future achievements will be even greater than Xing Bai's. Why offend such a person over such a small matter?"
… …
Linlong was naturally unaware of what was happening outside. At this moment, other than letting the Azure Spirit Armor's soul digest the blood of the lion-headed leopard beast, he was also continuously cultivating.
During this period of time, his strength had advanced by leaps and bounds. However, he knew that this kind of speed was not good for his foundation. He needed to calm down and use the Dantian Record to consolidate his current realm.
Only by using this method to build a good foundation would his future martial path be even more open.
