Ning Fengzhi coughed twice more, then said, "There are many veterans like him who retired from the front lines. He's just a typical example. When I sent someone to bring him to Heaven Dou City, I didn't expect him to be so eloquent, cough cough."
"Teacher, what's wrong with your health?" Xue Qinghe asked curiously.
"It's nothing serious, just poisoned," Ning Fengzhi a smile.
"Poison?"
"The poison of lovesickness has seeped into my bones, and my body is weakening day by day. If it weren't for the deal I made with Xiao Yi, I would have died last winter," Ning Fengzhi said calmly.
"I don't understand." Qian Renxue shook her head slightly. She really couldn't understand why anyone would give up their Life for so-called love. In her opinion, it was simply not worth it.
"Perhaps you'll understand when you find someone you love." Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly, then continued to look at the scene inside Heaven Dou Square. A commotion had broken out in the crowd. Tang San was rendered speechless by Ma Baoguo; this was the first time he had been humiliated in public, and he now harbored murderous intent towards Ma Baoguo. "You... you're simply being unreasonable!" Tang San shouted angrily.
"Haha, what a joke! You're the kind of person who only knows how to talk big, are you not allowed to let others say the same thing? What? Did I hit a nerve? Did I strike a chord with you?" Ma Baoguo said sarcastically.
"You..." Tang San's chest heaved. He wanted to persuade the people, but they wouldn't listen to him at all! The situation was completely out of control. Most of the people had even started chanting a rhyme, " Evil Demon Tang San, wreaking havoc on the world, the Heavenly Heaven Dou, the people suffer, lives are lost, this is intolerable!"
The sounds of voices echoed across the square, and Tang San's expression grew increasingly grim. He was now in a difficult position. He had come here today to showcase his eloquence, stir up the emotions of the people, prepare for war, and then lead the army of the Heaven Dou Empire to conquer the Star Luo Empire in one fell swoop. But who knew that Ma Baoguo, this veteran, would suddenly jump out and completely ruin his plans?
Although Tang San spoke eloquently during his speech, many of his points were indeed reasonable. If it weren't for the appearance of veteran Ma Baoguo, his speech would have definitely stirred up the emotions of these people to the highest point, and perhaps today would have been Tang San's stage to showcase himself.
But now it seems that this old soldier named Ma Baoguo has become Tang San's nemesis. Many of the things Tang San had prepared were useless, and Ma Baoguo just kept undermining him. At this point, the situation was completely out of control. Although Tang San was furious, he was not an impulsive person after all. He kept telling himself to stay calm.
Although Ma Baoguo kept questioning Tang San, he was also feeling a little uneasy. He knew that Tang San was a legendary Titled Douluo, with the same strength as the man who had killed his entire battalion. But today, he had to fight Tang San to the end for himself and for the Heaven Dou Empire.
"Everyone, quiet down!" Tang San shouted.
His voice was loud, and although some people opposed him, most people still heard him.
His voice echoed throughout the square, and combined with the Soul Power he deliberately released, it created waves of sound that drowned out the shouts. Tang San coldly said to Ma Baoguo, "I came here today to discuss state affairs with everyone, matters concerning the safety of the empire. I originally thought I could persuade everyone with reason, but I didn't expect to encounter someone like you who is so unreasonable and argumentative!"
Ma Baoguo's face darkened. "Are you lecturing me? You may be the Imperial Advisor, but you're just a greenhorn. You have no idea how treacherous people can be!" Tang San, unable to bear it any longer, unleashed a powerful aura.
This was the pressure of his Titled Douluo, a powerful force like a mountain. When Tang San released his pressure, a sharp killing intent erupted from his body, like a sword drawn from its sheath, its edge fully revealed.
Ma Baoguo felt his body trembling uncontrollably. Although he was a retired soldier, he was just an ordinary person. Facing Titled Douluo like Tang San, he was completely powerless.
At this moment, Ma Baoguo was completely suppressed by Tang San's oppressive aura. His lips had turned slightly blue. Although he was furious, he was powerless to resist. Tang San coldly looked at Ma Baoguo, "You scoundrel, do you even know what Titled Douluo is?"
Ma Baoguo forced a smile and said, "Although I'm not Titled Douluo, that doesn't mean I don't know."
Tang San laughed, "Since you know that, then you should understand that for me, Titled Douluo, killing you is as easy as crushing an ant."
"Kill one of me, and there will be thousands upon thousands more. You truly are Evil Demon."
"I want to see how you're going to kill me in front of so many people, right in front of me!" As soon as Ma Baoguo finished speaking, Tang San's expression changed. He was most worried about people like this who didn't care about their lives.
His original plan was to use his intimidation and words to make people like Ma Baoguo stand up first, then suppress him, establish his authority among the people, and then continue his speech. But now it seems that this veteran is much more difficult to deal with than he imagined.
Tang San's heart was already set on killing him. He didn't want to kill Ma Baoguo in front of so many people, as that would damage his reputation. However, if he didn't kill him, the situation today would be irreversible. Tang San's eyes turned cold, and with a flick of his wrist, a blood-red longsword appeared in his palm.
"Veteran, is this acceptable?" Tang San asked Ma Baoguo.
"Bah! You think you can make me, a grown man, submit to your Evil Demon ways? You're dreaming!" Ma Baoguo spat as he spoke.
Tang San's face darkened. He raised his blood sword, its blade gleaming, and a sharp killing intent condensed on the Asura Demonic Sword. Tang San was ready to kill; he refused to believe that he couldn't intimidate this old soldier in front of so many people!
"Buzz!" The sword trembled, and a deep buzzing sound rang out.
The moment the blood sword appeared, Ma Baoguo's expression changed. He felt that his body was completely out of his control, and the killing intent emanating from the blood-red longsword made it impossible for him to resist.
"Kill!" Tang San roared. His blood sword slashed out! The scarlet sword light cut through the air with a sharp whistling sound.
A crimson sword light slashed through the air with a sharp, tearing sound. Ma Baoguo's head flew off instantly, and his headless corpse sprayed out large amounts of blood, staining the square red.
