Chapter 505: Chapter 505: Kill an Elder!

"You’ve successfully angered me," Tang Zhong said coldly.

As soon as these words came out, a chill was felt throughout the room.

A group of people, one looking worse than the next.

"Did you hear what he just said?"

"He’s angered, who does he think he is!"

"Just an ingrate, that’s all!"

More people thought that Tang Zhong truly did not recognize the larger picture. The Hidden Sword Sect had made their stance very clear, yet he still refused?

Foolish, ignorant.

In their eyes, Tang Zhong was just an arrogant individual.

When Elder Wu heard Tang Zhong’s words, his eyes narrowed even further, "You...you’re sure you’re talking to me?"

"What do you think?" Tang Zhong stopped in his tracks, suddenly turned around, and met Elder Wu’s gaze.

Elder Wu, as an elder of the Valley of Hidden Swords, had never been spoken to like that, but for some reason, when the man in front of him suddenly turned, Elder Wu’s body shook violently, as if he had been targeted by a murderer.

"Ignorant boy, in this place, how many people wish to join our Hidden Sword Sect, yet fail the assessment? And you, you passed the assessment. This should be a blessing for you. Yet, you choose to give it up. I’m curious, who exactly are you?" Elder Wu said.

Tang Zhong was somewhat confused by these words.

He felt that something was amiss. Elder Wu’s actions were too strange. Insisting so strongly that he join the Valley of Hidden Swords, Tang Zhong could not believe the sect valued talent that much. People in the world have various dispositions, and there must be a problem now, but he did not yet know what it was!

Elder Wu continued, "Who in the world does not wish to join our Hidden Sword Sect? If you refuse, it can only mean that you bear a grudge against our sect, or perhaps, you’re afraid that we will discover something? The former is obviously not the case, as you are not worthy to be our sect’s enemy. So could it be that you have done something shameful?"

After speaking, Elder Wu looked up at Tang Zhong with narrowed eyes.

The people around them erupted in shock.

On closer thought, it did seem that way, and they all turned to look at Tang Zhong.

"Could this guy have done something he’s afraid the Hidden Sword Sect will find out, which is why he’s making such excuses?"

"It makes sense. I mean, who passes the Hidden Sword Sect’s assessment and then refuses to join? That person is fishy!"

In an instant, Tang Zhong became the target of a thousand pointing fingers.

But Tang Zhong smiled and said, "Then tell me, what disgraceful act have I committed?"

This Elder Wu, by giving him such a hard time, must have taken a fancy to something about him.

Fang Susu, who was in the crowd, began to worry about Tang Zhong. She had repeatedly warned to never provoke the Hidden Sword Sect, yet they still had been provoked—not that it was right to say provoked, as it was the other party provoking them.

Elder Wu heard Tang Zhong’s words and let out a cold laugh: "Recently, the disciple guarding our Hidden Sword Sect was murdered, dying a tragic death. You dare not go to our sect, are you afraid someone will uncover something?"

Everything was fabricated by Elder Wu. He indeed needed Tang Zhong to go to the Valley of Hidden Swords for an important matter. If Tang Zhong had obediently followed him back, all would have been well, but now, since he refused to return with him, Wu could not be blamed for not being courteous.

"Continue..." Tang Zhong said, all ears.

"That disciple was tortured with over thirty lacerations. The elders of the valley have examined the corpse and determined that someone of your stature committed the murder. I ask you, did you kill that disciple who was guarding our Hidden Sword Sect!" Elder Wu bellowed.

The surrounding people pricked up their ears.

No one doubted Elder Wu’s words, and it all seemed to make sense to them.

"No wonder he actually refuses to go to the Hidden Sword Sect—it turns out he’s a murderer! Such people are indeed detestable!"

"Yes!"

"He actually killed someone!"

Even if Tang Zhong hadn’t killed anyone, he was now being spoken of as if he had.

Of course, there were some who could see that Elder Wu was confronting Tang Zhong, but the clever ones knew how to choose, and it was always right to stand with the Hidden Sword Sect.

At that moment, Fang Susu couldn’t contain herself anymore and shouted towards Elder Wu, "You... you are slandering! When did Mr. Tang ever go to kill someone?"

As for Tang Zhong, Fang Susu knew him best. He had always been on Si Bo Island before he went to Zhu Island City.

"Calm down!" Tang Zhong waved his hand, signaling Fang Susu to stay cool.

"But, Mr. Tang, he’s falsely accusing you!" Fang Susu said anxiously.

"Then let him make his false accusations!" After that, Tang Zhong looked at Elder Wu, and in his heart, his intent to kill grew even stronger.

Elder Wu, seeing that Tang Zhong still wasn’t begging for mercy or going back with him, grew even uglier in the face and immediately shouted, "Won’t you admit your guilt? Someone from the Valley of Hidden Swords has already seen you commit murder!"

"Is that so? Then let the witness come out. I want to see!" Tang Zhong said with a smile.

"Still talking tough..." Elder Wu barked, "If you are not the murderer, why would you not join our Valley of Hidden Swords..."

"Fine, rest assured, I will definitely go to the Valley of Hidden Swords. But right now, I have other matters to attend to!" Tang Zhong said. Right now, finding Fang Jingde was his priority. However, he now felt a desire to visit the Valley of Hidden Swords.

"Nonsense... who are you looking for? Also, if you remain obdurate, don’t blame me for being unkind. I’ll capture you and confront you face-to-face with the witness back in the valley," Master Wu bellowed.

"I’m looking for Fang Jingde..." Tang Zhong proclaimed. After a brief pause, he continued, "To seek revenge... But rest assured, I will go back to the Valley of Hidden Swords, as you wish!"

In a flash, the entire venue burst into laughter once again.

Seeking revenge against Fang Jingde? This was the Fang Family manor—was he here to seek revenge?

At that moment, all one could see was Tang Zhong standing on the platform, his Blood Power erupting and transforming into a sonic wave that surged all around him.

"Fang Jingde... where are you?"

The sound rushed forward.

Like thunder!

Elder Wu’s brow furrowed instantly. Strength that emits sound is the technique of a Martial Arts Master.

The faces of the lesser martial artists around turned sour. They could naturally tell that this man was a Martial Arts Master. No wonder he was so arrogantly confident for someone so young.

But even a Martial Arts Master couldn’t compare to the Valley of Hidden Swords.

Elder Wu squinted at Tang Zhong, his desire to capture him and take him back to the Valley of Hidden Swords grew. The blood of a Martial Arts Master would certainly help the Master of the Valley obtain that object, and he could hardly suppress the fervor in his heart.

Looking at Tang Zhong, he sneered, "Audacious scoundrel, it must be you who killed the guardian disciple of our Valley of Hidden Swords. The one who killed him would have strength like yours!"

"Is that so?" Tang Zhong said, smiling.

"Still dare to argue? It was you!" Elder Wu accused directly.

"I have never been to your Valley of Hidden Swords, so how could I have killed someone from there!" Tang Zhong retorted.

"I say it was you who killed him, and that’s that! You dare to argue your innocence after killing my sect member. Today, I will kill you!" Elder Wu finished talking, and this time, he was determined to capture this man and present him to the Master of the Valley...

At that moment, Elder Wu let out a thundering shout, his fingertips touching the Giant Sword lying on the ground. This was Sword Control.

The body of the sword rumbled, trembling as it suddenly flew up from the ground, soaring towards Elder Wu. His clothes billowed without wind.

Then he pointed a finger at Tang Zhong.

The suspended Giant Sword shot towards him.

Looking at this sword, the people saw Tang Zhong with disdain.

"Under this sword, that youngster is as good as dead!"

"Of course, he truly deserves to die!"

"To have offended the Hidden Sword Sect, how could he possibly not die!"

At this moment, seeing the sword flying towards him, the corner of Tang Zhong’s mouth lifted, and he extended his hand, "Since you say I killed someone from the Valley of Hidden Swords, now I will kill an Elder in front of you!"
