Chapter 1370 — Standing Right Here, Letting You Hit Me
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
"Boy, I am Jin Wudi. Weren't you going to kill me with a single punch?" Jin Wudi burst into mocking laughter again, as though he had just heard the most ridiculous joke in the world. "Hahahaha, ignorant little whelp!"
"You're Jin Wudi?" Ergoudan was taken aback. He had never imagined that this fool was the very Jin Wudi Wu Chengtian had spoken of!
"The one and only!" Jin Wudi said proudly.
"He's Jin Wudi? Then why does he look so half-witted, as if there's something wrong with his head?" Ergoudan glanced at Jin Wudi, then turned to Wu Chengtian. "You haven't got the wrong man, have you?"
"Boss, I think it's him all right." Wu Chengtian studied Jin Wudi. He had never met the man, but he knew every one of the people standing behind him. With them at his back, no one would dare impersonate Jin Wudi.
"Oh. Then we'll say you're Jin Wudi. Old man, what exactly are you here for? I hear you've come to make trouble for my boss. If that's the case, then I've no choice but to kill you with one punch!" Ergoudan said, looking at Jin Wudi.
"Hahahaha!" Jin Wudi laughed again, laughing with boundless delight. He turned and looked at Zhen Yingjun, Pi Zhifeng, and the rest behind him, his face a picture of hilarity. "Did you hear that? He says he's going to kill me with one punch. Do you find that funny or not?"
"Hahaha!" Zhen Yingjun echoed at once: "This fellow is a **, overestimating himself like that. He wants to kill Ancestor Wudi with one punch? Even a hundred punches wouldn't kill him — he'd wear himself out first, wahahaha!"
Hearing Zhen Yingjun play along so obligingly, Jin Wudi nodded with immense satisfaction.
"Wu Chengtian, what's gotten into you? Why are you standing on Wei Zhao's side? Don't tell me you mean to make enemies of the Xiao, the Pi, and the Zhao families?" Xiao Wangba jabbed a finger at Wu Chengtian and demanded. The Wu family had been the Xiao family's ally — who would have thought Wu Chengtian would suddenly swear himself to their enemy as his boss?
"Wei Zhao is my old boss now, so naturally I stand at his side!" Wu Chengtian said, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. "The people your Xiao family hired are far too weak. In front of my boss they're less than nothing — to say nothing of the old boss! I mean to learn skills from them. I mean to become someone formidable!"
"Wu Chengtian, have you thought about what will come of this?" His face having been thrown back at him, Xiao Wangba's tone turned dark. "You should know you're setting yourself against the Xiao family, the Pi family — even the Zhao family!"
"And who the hell do you think you are? That old shrew's son? Shut your mouth, or I'll kill you along with the rest of them in a moment! And the lot of you — all of you, shut up!" Ergoudan was growing tired of all this talk. Wu Chengtian might be good for nothing, but he was at least loyal. He had sworn himself to Ergoudan as his boss, and before Ergoudan had taught him a single thing, he was already loyal to the bone. It raised him enormously in Ergoudan's estimation.
In truth, Wu Chengtian, arrogant as he was, was no complete fool. He had his own calculations. In the martial world, the one thing most despised was a man who broke faith and betrayed his word. In the old days he and the Xiao brothers had been drinking-and-meat friends, and that had been the end of it. But now that he had acknowledged Ergoudan as his boss, everything was different!
And so, having set his eyes on Ergoudan, Wu Chengtian would follow him to the very end. Of course, he also had faith in the man, believing he would come out on top — otherwise, why would Ergoudan speak so disdainfully, as though a top Earth Rank expert were nothing worth mentioning?
At that moment Zhao Qibing burst out laughing: "And what are you supposed to be? Even Wei Zhao wouldn't dare talk such big talk. You're just one of Wei Zhao's lackeys, and you're this arrogant? Don't you know that people who are too arrogant tend to get hurt?"
