Hua Shuheng smiled as he looked at Gu Hanyu. "I have to say, you succeeded in enraging me. Not only with your actions, but with your words as well. You're quite impressive."
Gu Hanyu laughed mockingly. "What are you putting on an act for? Do you think saying that makes you seem impressive?"
"In my eyes, you're nothing but a clown. Your entire clan is a bunch of self-righteous clowns!"
"Come on, let Grandpa here see what you can do. Don't let your bark be worse than your bite, or Grandpa will be very disappointed!"
Hua Shuheng's tone shifted as he replied, "I too sincerely hope your strength is worthy of your arrogant mouth! You insulted my companion, so I assume you've already chosen your own way to die!"
Chapter 1723: Hua Shuheng vs. Gu Hanyu
Hua Shuheng had already prepared himself to lose.
Whether he won or lost this battle truly did not matter.
Even when he learned that He Qiang had fallen, he had felt little emotional turbulence. Although He Qiang had been forcibly killed rather than dying willingly, he had at least died in battle, and his honor remained.
When he returned and saw that foul-mouthed brat in the future, he might even look at him in a new light and offer him a word or two of praise.
But when he saw Gu Hanyu insult He Qiang's corpse, chop off his head, and use it to plant a flag, he suddenly froze.
Perhaps he was too young, too prone to having his blood rush to his head.
Seeing He Qiang's head impaled upon the Gu Family battle flag, hearing the emperors' insults and belittling remarks toward him, he felt extremely displeased, and murderous intent surged within him!
A blaze of fury burned fiercely in his heart!
