One Move
If we only consider cultivation level, Gu He, who is already a peak Dou Wang, is definitely much higher than Mo Tang.
However, as an alchemist, he is still slightly weaker in combat.
Especially close-quarters combat like this.
As I said before, not everyone is Xiao Yan.
Without Heavenly Flames to protect them, and having spent a lot of time researching pills and Pill Recipe, many alchemists, apart from having strong soul power and a skill in controlling fire, don't really have many other combat Dou Technique they cultivate.
Because as a noble alchemist, there are many things I don't need to do myself.
Mo Tang's seemingly casual strike, aided by his powerful Lightning Attribute Dou Qi, actually sent Gu He, who had taken the initiative, flying out of the door with a single punch!
If it weren't for Fa Ma came in later, seeing the situation and helping out, Gu He would have suffered a great loss this time.
Only then did Nalan Yanran and Ge Ye realize what was happening and quickly stepped forward to stop them, saying, "Stop right now! Elder Gu He, this person is not an enemy, but Elder Mo Tang Mo, Outer Sect Elder of our Misty Cloud Sect!"
Ge Ye's words were clearly heard by Gu He and Fa Ma outside the door.
Fa Ma was alright...
He initially thought they were enemies, but upon hearing that they were members of the Misty Cloud Sect, and that Nalan Yanran and Ge Ye were also inside, he realized that what they said must be true.
But when Gu He heard this name, and recalled some rumors he had heard within the sect, and then what he had just witnessed...
In an instant, his entire face turned ashen.
At this moment, Mo Tang also walked slowly to the door. Looking at the two people outside, he guessed Fa Ma's identity, nodded, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "I am Mo Tang, an Outer Sect Elder of the Misty Cloud Sect. I greet Master Fa Ma."
The old man Fa Ma, was shrewd and immediately noticed the discord between the young Dou Wang and Gu He. He smiled awkwardly and responded twice, which was considered a greeting.
Gu He stared intently at Mo Tang, the scene he had just witnessed still replaying in his mind...
"What... is your relationship with her?"
Gritting his teeth, Gu He squeezed out a sentence.
Seeing that the two jealous men seemed about to fight, Fa Ma wisely walked to the side and, together with Ge Ye and Nalan Yanran, became an outsider.
Mo Tang's gaze remained indifferent.
Anyway, I've already won him over, I'm the victor, there's no need for me to bother with a tragic guy who's not even a backup option.
But since they asked...
"Seriously, you could consider me Yun Yun's fiancé..."
This wasn't meant to be a deliberate attempt to hurt the other person's feelings.
After all, the two of them had kissed and hugged, and now that Yun Shan was dead, there was no need for any parental consent. So, is there a problem with Yun Yun being his fiancée?
There's absolutely no problem with that!
Of course, Mo Tang thought there was no problem, but Gu He was almost furious.
"Nonsense!"
"How come I didn't know that Yun Yun had a fiancé?"
"How dare you utter such disgraceful words to Sect Master Yun's face in front of me! I'll teach you a lesson! Come out with me if you dare!"
With that, Gu He walked directly towards a plaza in the Alchemist Headquarters.
Mo Tang was speechless...
What's so special about this?
Are you challenging these thugs to a fight?
But if you want to hit me, then go ahead and hit me. Wait until I make you cry, then let's see if you still have the nerve to compete with me for a woman!
Seeing the two leaving, Fa Ma's first thought was to stop them.
But after thinking about it, it seemed like I didn't have any reason to stop them...
When he turned to suggest that Nalan Yanran, the Young Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect and a Direct Disciple of Yun Yun, try to persuade her, he suddenly saw a trace of disappointment and gloom on the girl's face.
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Fa Ma suddenly realized something, and his expression changed drastically.
He thought to himself, "My goodness... this seems to be more complicated than it appears! Hmm, in that case, it's best for me, an outsider, to stay out of it and avoid getting into trouble. Better safe than sorry..."
In an instant, Fa Ma made up his mind.
As long as those two don't tear down the headquarters of our Alchemist Association, then let them fight it out themselves...
The huge square was originally used for alchemists in the association to refine medicines.
But the entire square was now empty, with only two figures standing opposite each other, their eyes flashing with electricity and sparks.
A group of alchemists, still confused about the situation, watched all this with curiosity on their faces.
One of the elderly men, dressed in Fifth-grade Alchemist's robe and also the Vice President of the Alchemist Association, frowned and looked at President Fa Ma in front of him, asking with some confusion, "President, are you just going to let them run rampant here?"
Fa Ma smiled kindly and said softly, "What does it matter? Actually, I'm also curious about these two people in front of me..."
The most talented alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire, the Pill King ...
The youngest Dou Wang expert in the empire, a prodigy...
What interesting outcome would occur if these two started fighting?
The old man rolled his eyes at the suddenly unreliable president, then looked speechlessly toward the center of the square.
On the field, Gu He's emotions seemed to have calmed down, but his bloodshot eyes still betrayed his inner thoughts.
Seeing that he seemed completely unconcerned and didn't take him seriously, Gu He's anger flared up again.
"Today, I will make you understand the difference between us! In this world, only I am worthy of her!"
Mo Tang simply rolled his eyes at the other person.
If you're an alchemist and want to prove yourself, shouldn't you refine a pill that will shock the world?
You want to fight me? Are you serious?
Of course, Mo Tang welcomes this approach of using the other party's weaknesses to attack his strengths.
Perhaps Gu He has accumulated a lot of experience over the years, and may have even mastered some powerful Dou Technique, but to fight him one-on-one when they are less than fifty meters apart...
All Mo Tang could say was: You're asking for death!
"One move!"
Mo Tang raised a finger and said softly, "If you don't lose in one move, then I'll turn around and leave right now! In the future, if I encounter you, Gu He, I'll be willing to give way!"
Mo Tang's words not only enraged Gu He, but also filled the group of alchemists nearby with righteous indignation.
This is the Alchemist Guild, the territory of alchemists.
As the number one alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire, Gu He was highly respected by many people present.
Hearing this young man dare to speak so arrogantly, they were all so angry that they wanted to roll up their sleeves and personally teach him a lesson.
