Wu Changkong: So You Refuse to Reason? Wonderful

"Debts must be repaid, and murder must be answered with one's life—"

At the entrance of Eastsea Academy, a large crowd had gathered, radiating an overwhelming sense of pressure. Some of them were even holding Soul Guidance Guns, which were prohibited for civilian use.

At the forefront of the group, beside Guang Long, stood a grim-faced man.

He was powerfully built, bald, and sported a full beard. He bore some resemblance to Guang Long, like an upgraded version of him. He was none other than Guang Long's older brother, Guang Biao.

He was the captain of the East Sea City Mecha Brigade. His Martial Soul was the Iron Armored Dragon, and he was a level 63 Soul Emperor and a Purple Mecha Master. His strength was formidable.

If no one said it aloud, no one would have guessed that the people making such an aggressive display were not some criminal gang, but members of the Mecha Brigade responsible for protecting the city.

"This is outrageous!"

"So this is how Eastsea Academy teaches its students?"

Guang Biao stared fixedly at Eastsea Academy before him. A raging fire burned in his heart, filling him with fury and dissatisfaction.

As the captain of the Mecha Brigade, his duty had always been to protect the city's safety, not to show up in a place like this. But...

Today was different. His younger brother, Guang Long, had actually been beaten up by students from Eastsea Academy!

According to Guang Long, he had merely gone out for a meal when several students provoked him for no reason and attacked him...

They had even beaten him into a bald, swollen pig's head. When Guang Biao first saw him, he had not even recognized his own brother.

"Outrageous!"

Guang Biao gritted his teeth. He and his brother had grown up together, and their bond went without saying. Their family had been too poor to afford to train more than one Soul Master, so he had been the one to attend Soul Master Academy.

His younger brother had already been less talented than him, and that talent had been completely wasted as a result. Even now, that had always made Guang Biao feel guilty.

He had undoubtedly failed his brother. If, after obtaining everything he had today, he still could not protect his own younger brother...

Then even he himself would never be able to respect himself.

"Guang Biao from the Mecha Brigade..."

"Did Luochuan get into a conflict with them?"

Watching the scene from afar, Ouyang Zixin looked utterly bewildered. She had naturally noticed that Guang Biao was holding Tang Luochuan's photograph, but why...

Luochuan was only Nine Years Old!

A bunch of grown men, all Mecha Masters at that, had come to demand an explanation from a child. That was far too excessive. In her eyes, this was nothing but blatant bullying!

A group of middle-aged men bullying a child—could they be any more shameless? Were they going to bully children who had just awakened their Martial Souls next?

This was truly awful! What had Luochuan done wrong?

"Exactly, Zi Xin. They're clearly trying to bully someone, and they've actually come to bully us."

"They dare bully Luochuan?"

Mu Xi's face was likewise filled with anger. She and Luochuan were close, especially since her current forging skills relied on the extraordinarily talented Luochuan for guidance and improvement.

They had gone after the greatest young blacksmithing genius in the world. Guang Biao, Guang Biao, you really had reached the end of the road. Did you really think the Blacksmith Association had no one?

"Dad, there's a problem here..."

"A Soul Emperor is blocking Luochuan at the entrance, saying he wants him to pay with his life for injuring someone and demanding an explanation. Come quickly, quickly..."

Mu Xi immediately took out her Soul Tool phone and called her father, declaring the emergency in a rush.

Guang Biao was merely a Soul Emperor at most, while her father was a Soul Douluo! Since he wanted to bully Luochuan, he had to pay a serious price. Her father had to teach him a proper lesson.

"Guang Biao from the Mecha Brigade? He brought people to block Xiao Xi at her school entrance? That's far too improper."

At the Blacksmith Association, Mu Chen wore a thoughtful expression. The Mecha Brigade was an organization responsible for protecting the city, and its captain ranked on the same level as an executive officer, yet he had done something like this.

"What a fool, Guang Biao."

Mu Chen shook his head, but that did not stop him from vanishing in a flash and flying toward Eastsea Academy.

Nothing could happen to Luochuan. He was the only blacksmithing prodigy capable of surpassing Mu Chen's senior brother!

If Guang Biao truly dared lay a hand on Luochuan...

Mu Chen would make sure he regretted it.

"Big brother."

"You have to avenge me."

Beside Guang Biao, Guang Long was still crying bitterly. He squeezed his face, which had swollen into a round balloon, and said bluntly.

He had not reflected on his own faults in the slightest. In his eyes, he had merely wanted to collect protection money. What was wrong with that?

Everyone had been willing to give it...

Fine, perhaps they had not been quite so willing at first, but hadn't they all stopped complaining afterward?

It was all those children's fault! If it had not been for them, he would still be collecting protection money and making lots and lots of cash right now.

"Don't worry."

"Your brother won't let you suffer this injustice."

Guang Biao spoke seriously. Then he looked toward Eastsea Academy again, his expression darkening once more.

"Teacher, are those criminals who hurt my brother coming out or not? I don't have time to keep wasting it with you. I want to see them alive, and if they're dead, I want to see their bodies."

"Wait a little longer. Soon, soon."

Zhang Buwei, the director of the Senior Department, nodded hurriedly, his face full of confusion and incomprehension as panic filled his heart.

Wu Changkong had already beaten him up after they had fallen out before. How had he also beaten that man's younger brother into a pig's head? Now they had come right to their door!

Show yourself already, Wu Changkong!

This man was a Soul Emperor, someone Zhang Buwei did not even dare touch.

"If you don't bring them to me within ten minutes, then my companions and I can only go in and help you look for them ourselves."

Guang Biao spoke calmly, but his patience was almost exhausted. If they did not appear soon, he was prepared to force his way in.

"Captain Guang Biao, don't be hasty. Perhaps this is just a beautiful misunderstanding. Their teacher will bring them here soon..."

"A misunderstanding?"

"Want me to misunderstand you for a moment, Zhang Buwei? Beat you into that state, then call it a beautiful misunderstanding?"

Guang Biao glared at him, and Zhang Buwei instantly did not dare say another word. This was no longer about being fearless—this was about getting beaten into submission.

"Captain Guang Biao, do you still truly think a few children could defeat your younger brother with their strength? Are you..."

Zhang Buwei hesitated, nearly cursing aloud.

"Enough. I already said I only want those children."

"Are you really going to refuse to reason?"

"Reason?"

Hearing that, Guang Biao laughed.

"Reason?"

"I can reason with you, but after you beat my little brother into this state, what the hell is there left for me to reason about?"

"My fists are bigger, so I'm taking them away."

Guang Biao said coldly. As he spoke, a powerful aura erupted from his body, making even the onlookers shudder.

"So it's about whose fists are bigger."

"Then that couldn't be better."

At that moment, a cold voice rang out. Though it was quiet, it carried an astonishingly penetrating force.

Before everyone's eyes, a man dressed in flowing white robes appeared. His long hair drifted behind him as he stood proudly there, as though the temperature in the air had dropped by several degrees.

Even the oppressive atmosphere in the air weakened at once.

"This man..."

Guang Biao frowned. His perception was the clearest.

The moment Wu Changkong appeared, the imposing aura Guang Biao had just gathered felt as though it had slammed into an iceberg and scattered in every direction.

"He's strong."

"Who... are you?"

Guang Biao narrowed his eyes.

"I'm the teacher of those children you mentioned."

"As for what you're thinking now..."

Wu Changkong said no more. He pointed at Tang Luochuan and the others behind him, his expression calm.

"Defeat me, and continue."

"If you lose..."

"Get lost."
