As soon as these words were spoken, all four gray-robed elders showed a look of envy.
"Chang Feng, don’t you hurry to thank the Princely Heir!" they all shouted.
Yet Chang Feng sneered, "Since you know my loyalty, why do you still ask me to betray the Fourth Prince? Isn’t that a big joke?"
"Good!" Tai Wuji nodded, "Since that is the case, I will fulfill your name of loyalty."
He waved his hand, and the four gray-robed elders attacked at once.
Chang Feng remained calm and fearless. Barehanded, he threw a punch that turned into a flaming tiger with tremendous destructive power, forcing the four men to dodge, as they dare not block it directly.
However, Chang Feng had no hope of escaping, for the gray-robed old men had already laid down a spider web in advance. If caught by it, he would instantly lose his ability to move.
—If it were one-on-one, he could easily crush a gray-robed elder and then burn the spider web to ashes. But now, he was entangled by four skilled experts and had no time to deal with the spider web.
Therefore, he could only focus on the four experts, needing to defeat them first before he could even think about breaking free.
Chang Feng was indeed formidable, holding his own even against four opponents.
However, he was tremendously anxious.
Tai Wuji might act at any moment.
—This man was too strong, always seeking the opportunity for a lethal strike, exerting immense pressure on Chang Feng.
The most terrifying part of a snake lies in its hiding in the shadows, striking suddenly with a bite.
Under such pressure, Chang Feng could not deal with his four adversaries and began to repeatedly show weaknesses, almost facing defeat.
A streak of cold light flashed by, and Tai Wuji finally made his move.
He had observed for a long time, waiting for the optimal opportunity to strike. His action now signified that he had captured such an opportunity.
This strike targeted Chang Feng’s weakest point in defense, unstoppable and impossible to block.
Boom! With one strike, Chang Feng was immediately sent flying, heavily falling to the ground, and he couldn’t get up for a while.
"Pry open the Spirit Armor and take the person away. As for these two..." Tai Wuji glanced at Shi Hao and Chang Feng, "kill them."
"Yes, Princely Heir," the four gray-robed elders replied respectfully.
Shi Hao couldn’t help laughing, waving his hand, "I’m just a bystander, and I’ve maintained professionalism from start to finish, never speaking and always keeping quiet. So now you actually want to kill me. That’s not fair, is it?"
"There’s nothing fair or unfair. You are too weak; that is your original sin!" the gray-robed elder immediately said, then leaped forward, charging at Shi Hao.
"Pretty boy, are you afraid of spiders?" he laughed, shaking his hand, and instantly several spiders leaped towards Shi Hao.
Shi Hao flicked his fingers, snap, snap, snap, sparks flew, and these spiders turned into tiny fireballs, falling from the sky.
Now, not only the four gray-robed elders but even Tai Wuji looked at Shi Hao in surprise, showing a look of astonishment.
Unexpectedly, this bystander was actually a master.
"Pretty boy, I really underestimated you!" the gray-robed elder laughed. Although the first strike was neutralized by Shi Hao, he had only used a few spiders—it was merely a trial run.
He raised his hand again, and instantly a large swarm of spiders flew towards Shi Hao.
Shi Hao shook his head, "Although I’m not afraid of spiders, I still find them quite annoying."
He swung a punch towards the gray-robed elder. Instantly, a fist force turned into a light beam, blasting forward at a terrifying speed.
As the light beam blasted through, the small spiders instantly shattered, and the light beam showed no signs of disappearing as it continued toward the gray-robed elder, striking through his body with lightning speed.
Then, the grey-clothed old man was seen motionless, but when a gentle breeze passed, he suddenly fell to the ground, a gaping hole through his chest, yet not a drop of blood came out.
A single strike, death.
Tai Wuji and his companions looked on, all revealing a hint of wariness.
Although the grey-clothed old man was only at the Eight King Realm, to be able to blast him to death with one punch, what kind of strength was that?
Even among the Ninth King, only a few could manage that, right?
"Young man eating melons, what’s your name?" Tai Wuji looked at Shi Hao and asked with a smile.
"Shi Hao?" Tai Wuji muttered. He had never heard this name before.
Yet, for a Ninth King as young as Shi Hao, he should be quite famous. Why had he never heard his name?
"This matter doesn’t concern you; how about you leave now?" He smiled again and said to Shi Hao.
Shi Hao shook his head, "I wanted to leave just now, but you didn’t let me. Now, it won’t be so easy for you to want me gone."
"What do you intend to do?" Tai Wuji asked.
"Compensation for emotional distress," Shi Hao gestured with his hand. "I was scared by that spider guy just now; my little heart is still beating wildly. Shouldn’t you compensate me for this?"
Tai Wuji and his companions all had dark expressions. If your heart wasn’t beating, wouldn’t you be dead?
And, you got scared by the spider guy?
You blasted the man to death with one punch; who’s scaring whom here?
But then, with your strength displayed , even if you want to extort them, what can they do?
Despite feeling disgusted, Tai Wuji constrained himself and said, "I have a five-star Spiritual Medicine here. How about that as compensation?"
"Give it here." Shi Hao extended his hand.
Tai Wuji raised his hand and tossed the Spiritual Medicine to Shi Hao.
"Can you leave now, sir?" Tai Wuji asked gravely.
Shi Hao glanced at the Spiritual Medicine, stored it inside the Immortal Abode, then shook his head, "Not enough."
Tai Wuji almost cursed aloud. The dead man was from their side, and if anyone should have a claim for losses, it should be them.
He finally couldn’t bear it any longer, his expression turning grim, he said, "Young man, don’t push your luck!"
Shi Hao smiled, "I was just eating my meal quietly, bothering no one. Since you attacked me, naturally, you must bear the consequences. It’s already quite generous of me to let you compensate. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be better if I killed you all and plundered everything clean?"
Tai Wuji waved his hand, and the remaining three enchanting women surrounded Shi Hao.
They intended to repeat their previous tactic, with the three enchanting women teaming up for a combined attack while Tai Wuji ambushed from the side for a deadly blow.
"Kill!" the three enchanting women charged simultaneously.
Shi Hao smiled faintly, pushed his hand forward, and a shockwave burst out. Bang, bang, bang—the three enchanting women were sent flying, disintegrating mid-air into a spray of blood.
Shi Hao has never been kind or soft-hearted to those who wished to kill him.
Tai Wuji was utterly dumbfounded.
He had intended to ambush Shi Hao while he was entangled with the three women. But what now?
With a mere gesture, all three enchanting women were gone. What was there left for him to ambush?
This power... was simply terrifying!
