Tang Wanli felt deeply awkward.
He had just been about to scold Tang Xiaohao when he saw the Strategist shake his head slightly, then smile and nod.
Tang Wanli's mind reacted quickly: This is... telling Xiaohao to take a jab at the Yan Zhao Sect?
It was not entirely out of the question...
Faced with the provocation, Long Aotian merely smiled coldly, not panicking in the slightest.
"Young Sect Master, the Yan Zhao Sect has always kept itself apart from worldly disputes. My master, in his venerable age, has not involved himself in the martial world for decades. Today is an auspicious day for the two seniors, Medicine Elder and Sword God. As juniors, we have only a respectful heart and two ears ready to receive instruction. Nothing more."
Tang Xiaohao burst out laughing. "So what you're saying is, the Sword Saint's disciple is stealing the spotlight?"
Long Aotian said, "The Sword Saint's esteemed disciple is here today to make friends through the sword, you could say as a warm-up before the two seniors' Chess Match. Since the Young Sect Master is in such high spirits, why not exchange a few moves with the Sword Saint's successor?"
Tang Xiaohao said, "I'm in the Gateless Realm. It wouldn't be appropriate for me to bully a junior disciple brother who hasn't reached the Gateless Realm, and it wouldn't be fair either. But as for you Three Brothers, it seems none of you are in the Gateless Realm, hahaha. You've followed Hun Tiangang for so many years, and this is all the skill and courage you have?"
Jiang Xiaohu stood behind Medicine Elder without saying a word, only looking coldly at Tang Xiaohao.
Zhao Ritian leaned close to Lu Chengwen. "I want to talk."
Lu Chengwen said, "Wait a little longer."
