Chapter 41 Tang Zhi's Madness
However, thinking about these things now is of no use. The most important thing is to leave this place first. Otherwise, what use would it be if we knew the identity of the person in front of us, the conspiracy behind him, and everything else?
Time passed quietly. One day, as the two were locked in fierce combat in the air, a deafening roar reached their ears, momentarily stunning them. They stopped abruptly, and then saw a massive mushroom cloud in the distance!
This mushroom cloud was so large that it covered the entire sky. Anyone who looked up could only see the polluted air and not the blue sky behind it, which shows how terrifying its power was.
Looking into the distance, Tang Zhi frowned slightly. He sensed that the roaring sound and the mushroom cloud rising were coming from the direction of the Xiao Clan. Immediately, an ominous premonition rose in his heart. He dared not think any further, for he was afraid that what he was thinking would come true.
However, some things are beyond one's control. The more you try not to think about them, the more you can't help but continue thinking about them.
Just then, his gaze drifted to the man in the distance. Suddenly, unable to suppress his emotions, he roared at the man, "Ahhh! It's all your fault! It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have failed to help. If it weren't for you, how could I have stood by and watched the Xiao clan go to war? You should pray that Xiao Xuan is safe and sound, otherwise I will make you wish you were dead!"
Looking at Tang Zhi, whose eyes were bloodshot and face was contorted in the distance, the man felt a sense of foreboding. Coupled with the unusual movements coming from the direction of the Xiao Clan, he was almost certain that the plan had succeeded, so he immediately wanted to leave.
The current situation no longer allows him to delay any longer. If things continue like this, given Tang Zhi's crazed state, it's hard to guarantee that he won't kill him at any cost. Therefore, leaving is the best option.
However, Tang Zhi, enraged, was not about to let him have his way. Seeing the man's intention to leave, he flashed in front of him and unleashed a fighting technique. This technique completely blocked his escape route. If he continued to flee, he would inevitably be seriously injured, and he wouldn't be able to go far before being caught up by his opponent. Therefore, he had no choice but to abandon his escape and fight back!
A jet-black flame suddenly appeared, completely engulfing the fighting technique in front of him. Tang Zhi was not surprised at all. After such a long battle, he had gained some understanding of the characteristics of the strange fire in his opponent's hand. He had not expected this fighting technique to hurt his opponent; it was only meant to force his opponent to prevent him from escaping.
"I refuse to believe that you can maintain your peak strength to fight against me. You want to stall? Then I'll stall with you until the day I kill you!" he said murderously.
He had suffered far too much humiliation during this period. He was blocked for no reason, and the person who blocked him was not as powerful as him, but he was able to hold his own with the strange fire in his hand. The person repeatedly prevented him from leaving, and when he was about to fight to the death, the person dodged. The intention to delay was so obvious that it couldn't be clearer.
But he was completely helpless against this approach, and could only let the other party play him for a fool like a headless fly!
Because of this mysterious man, he was unable to support Xiao Xuan and could only watch helplessly as Xiao Xuan and the Xiao Clan fought a bloody battle. This feeling of frustration was something he had never experienced since breaking through to the Nine-Star Dou Sheng realm!
Hearing Tang Zhi's murderous words and seeing his resentful expression, the man felt a pang of panic. He didn't believe Tang Zhi was just bluffing; if it was true, he was in serious trouble. His strength was originally inferior to Tang Zhi's; he had only been able to fight him and stall him until now thanks to the power of his strange fire. But now, his opponent wanted to fight him to the death!
If it's a short time, it's fine, but if it drags on, he'll inevitably run out of steam, given the vast difference in strength between them. If that happens, he'll be close to death!
"It seems I have to find a way to get out of here, or the consequences will be unimaginable!" he thought to himself.
"Tang Zhi, I have important business to attend to and need to leave now. You can also take this opportunity to leave this place and go to the Xiao Clan to do what you want to do. Isn't that a win-win situation? As for the previous incident, I will pretend it never happened." The man began to persuade Tang Zhi, wanting to leave peacefully.
Unfortunately, Tang Zhi did not listen to his slander. On the contrary, his words only added fuel to Tang Zhi's anger. "I tried to leave several times before, but you always stopped me. Now that you want to leave, you say such things. Too late! You even said to just pretend it never happened. Bah!"
His best friend's fate is unknown, and he is being delayed and obstructed here by others. In order to get revenge, he must make the person in front of him pay a bloody price!
Faced with Tang Zhi's almost frenzied attack, the man could only passively defend himself. However, as time went by, he gradually began to lose his strength. The speed at which he absorbed battle qi was far slower than the speed at which he consumed it. Soon, his black clothes were torn and he suffered some injuries.
And so the two continued to fight in this place until one day...
That day, Tang Zhi pressed his opponent's attacks relentlessly. Although this would cause him to suffer some injuries, compared to his own injuries, his opponent's injuries were undoubtedly more serious. If this continued, he would probably be able to kill him completely in no time!
Just as the mysterious man was retreating step by step, a terrifying aura suddenly came from afar. Sensing this aura, the disheveled man stopped in his tracks and laughed loudly at Tang Zhi in front of him: "Hahahaha, Tang Zhi, you insisted on stopping me from leaving earlier. You missed such a good opportunity. Well then, now you can't leave even if you want to! Today you will die here!"
Hearing his arrogant words, Tang Zhi was momentarily stunned, his brows furrowing slightly. According to him, the owner of this terrifying aura must have come to support him. If so, then things would indeed be quite troublesome. Because he could sense that the owner of this aura possessed the same strength as himself.
Both are at the peak of the Nine-Star Dou Sheng realm, but I have already been through such a long battle, and my physical strength and fighting spirit are greatly depleted. Moreover, there are two of my opponents, so the situation is now unfavorable to me.
