Chapter 678: Chapter 678: Denying Debt!

From high above, a severed head tumbled down, and it belonged to none other than Inoue Kazuo.

Instantly, everyone was shocked to their core.

All martial artists and tycoons of Bei Country stood there like fools, unable to believe what they were seeing.

No matter who it was, at that moment, everyone’s eyes widened, their pupils trembling.

It was not only them who couldn’t believe it.

Even the people of Xuan Country, watching through the screen, couldn’t believe it.

Zhang Changgong was holding a teacup, which he crushed into pieces with a loud bang.

"Unbelievable!"

On Xuan Country’s Martial Arts Forum, all the martial artists were there, and when they saw Inoue Kazuo, they were all stunned at first. It took a while for everyone to realize that Inoue Kazuo’s head had fallen off, which meant Tang Zhong had won.

Tang Zhong had actually won.

At that moment, whether it was the people of Bei Country present at the scene or those far away in Xuan Country watching the screen, their gazes couldn’t help but turn towards the Sky Tree in Winter Capital.

They wanted to truly confirm it because this scene was so shocking that it was hard to believe.

And there, standing on the Sky Tree in Winter Capital, was a figure, a young man with a black sword shouldered. Who else could it be if not Tang Zhong?

"Impossible!" The martial artists of Bei Country all went crazy.

The tycoons, one after another, felt weak in their knees because Master Inoue had actually lost.

Now that Tang Zhong was alive, it signified that Inoue Kazuo had lost, indicating that the entire Martial Arts of Bei Country had lost as well.

Their desire to topple Xuan Country’s Martial Arts had been completely shattered.

After all, the one who had lost this time was the strongest person in the Martial Arts of Bei Country, a Martial Arts Peak, while the opponent was merely a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

This was a complete challenge beyond one’s class.

And at that moment, on the Sky Tree, Tang Zhong looked up at the sky of Bei Country, then down at Inoue Kazuo, who lay on the ground, and smiled.

Today, he had finally washed away all the disgrace concerning the Tang Family.

Not only had he reclaimed the Tang Sword, but he had also avenged his nemesis.

This was a great accomplishment for Tang Zhong.

However, if it were up to him alone today, he would not have been able to exact his revenge; he thanked the ten Flame Dragon Soldiers.

"Thank you!" Tang Zhong knew the ten Flame Dragon Soldiers were within him, and he expressed his gratitude.

There was no response.

Tang Zhong thought the ten Flame Dragon Soldiers would ignore him, which he could understand due to the weapon’s pride, as only powerful individuals could wield it.

Suddenly, a deep voice came through.

"If it weren’t for you being the chosen one, I definitely wouldn’t have helped you!"

This was the voice of the ten Flame Dragon Soldiers.

Upon hearing this, Tang Zhong immediately became excited, "Thank you for saving my life!"

"I didn’t say I was saving you; I did it for myself!" the voice of the ten Flame Dragon Soldiers was very cold.

"Still, thank you. Otherwise, I would have died today!" Tang Zhong said.

"Forget it, think whatever you want. You are too weak. I’d have to wait until the cows come home for you to get stronger. Enough, I won’t talk to you anymore!" said the Flame Dragon Soldiers.

Soon, all sound had disappeared.

Tang Zhong knew the others had left. Regardless of what the Flame Dragon Soldiers had said, he was grateful to them; otherwise, he wouldn’t have survived today.

However, now that Inoue Kazuo had been killed, it was time to go down.

Then, looking down at the people of Bei Country from above, he immediately took a step, preparing to descend.

Holding a Tang Sword, he swooped down like a soaring eagle.

The thousand-meter-high iron tower beneath Tang Zhong’s feet seemed like nothing.

His feet landed first on the ground, *boom*, directly imprinting two footprints on the Earth, shaking the entire ground.

At that moment, all the people of Bei Country were watching Tang Zhong, each with a very unpleasant look on their faces.

Their previous arrogance had all dissipated.

Tang Zhong swept his gaze forward, his face extremely cold as he said, "I heard that some of you said, your Bei Country Martial Arts are stronger than our Xuan Country Martial Arts?"

Upon hearing this, the people of Bei Country looked at each other, none daring to speak.

Everyone was intimidated by the power Tang Zhong had just demonstrated; it was immensely strong, absurdly strong, and not something they could face alone.

But standing on their own land, being yelled at by a person from Xuan Country made their faces look very bad, and they felt quite stifled.

Not many were truly convinced, yet no one dared to speak out.

Just then, from among the crowd, Inoue Tomo stood up, already in a state of rage: "You... you killed my father!"

Tang Zhong looked directly at Inoue Tomo and said, "Yes, I did!"

"You’re looking for death. This is our Bei Country, it’s not your place to run wild!" At this moment, Inoue Tomo, with bloodshot eyes, looked at Tang Zhong, flames burning in his eyes, and he gripped a curved sword in his hand.

Then, he shouted to the crowd of Bei Country martial artists around him, "Fellow countrymen, this is our Bei Country. This Xuan Country man has killed my father, a crime unforgivable. My father’s contributions to Bei Country were immense. Someone killing him is like slapping Bei Country in the face. We’re all people of Bei Country, are we really going to let a Xuan Country man run wild here?"

Instantly, the surrounding people of Bei Country responded, shouting out, "Kill him, kill him, hurry up and kill him!"

The people from Bei Country weren’t very respectful towards Tang Zhong to begin with, and now that someone had taken the lead, how could they not rebel?

Seeing this, Inoue Tomo coldly smiled. In truth, his father’s death was just a pretext. Inoue Tomo also needed to become stronger. Thus, he needed respect, and now was his opportunity — he intended to unite all the martial artists around him, making himself the core of Bei Country’s Martial Arts in the future.

Then, Inoue Tomo continued to shout, "Don’t be afraid, everyone. Although this Xuan Country man is powerful, he is only one person after all, and here, we have the entire Martial Arts of Bei Country. Even if he’s formidable, can he challenge the entire Martial Arts community of Bei Country?"

Upon hearing this, even more people responded, and at that moment, their shouts were thunderous.

Looking at Tang Zhong, a gleam flashed in their eyes.

Yes!

The entire Bei Country was present, their entire Martial Arts community. Should they fear one man from Xuan Country?

The answer was no.

The people around responded to Inoue Tomo, making him laugh loudly. It was evident that this time he really had succeeded. As long as Tang Zhong died, he would be the future leader of the Martial Arts in Bei Country.

At this moment, Tang Zhong, very calmly observed Inoue Tomo in front of him and then laughed, "I recall that my previous challenge was to have a duel with Inoue Kazuo atop the Winter Capital’s Sky Tree. It seemed like a fight where victory or defeat was based on personal strength, where death in a duel was quite normal. When exactly did it become murder?"

"Haha, you’re still making excuses. You are a Martial Arts Grandmaster, how could you have defeated my father? He was at the Martial Arts Peak. Just now at the top of the Sky Tree, we down here couldn’t see clearly what happened up there clearly. You defeating my father means you must have used some underhanded tactics, so you won. Do you think you can fool all of us?" Inoue Tomo spat.

Yet Tang Zhong remained calm, looking at Inoue Tomo and said, "Are you suggesting that you want to deny the debt?"
