Chapter 149: I Really Wasn’t Showing Off (Please Recommend and Tip)

The disciple at the front walked up to Wu Tian and glared at him with open hostility.

“It’s you!”

Wu Tian looked at him, blinked, and asked in confusion, “You know me?”

“How the hell could I not know you? Have you forgotten how you acted all high and mighty in front of me?”

Wu Tian scratched his head and thought for a long while, but still could not remember who the man was. In the end, he said helplessly, “Sorry, I show off so much on a regular basis that I’ve forgotten who you are.”

Niu Wuji and Zhou Zheng nearly fainted when they heard him. Who the hell would admit to showing off like that? Probably only Wu Tian.

Niu Wuji recognized the man at a glance, but said nothing.

Wu Tian’s words nearly made the man vomit blood. He immediately roared furiously, “At the Crimson Pavilion, you were the one acting arrogantly in front of me! If I hadn’t taken the guards into consideration, I would have killed you then and there. You remember now, don’t you?”

Wu Tian suddenly understood. His eyes widened as he pointed at the man.

“Oh, I remember now! You’re that guy whose name is something like Bastard, right?”

Pfft!

Niu Wuji burst out laughing. The man’s name was Xu Jianren, not Bastard—but the two names sounded almost identical, so there was really no helping it.

“Bastard?” Xu Jianren’s forehead was covered in black lines. “You’re the bastard! Your whole family are bastards!”

“You’re really rude. Why do you start cursing the moment we disagree? Your name really is Bastard!” Wu Tian sneered.

“My name is Xu Jianren, not Bastard!” Xu Jianren roared.

“Isn’t Xu Jianren the same as Bastard?” Wu Tian said with a frown.

Xu Jianren took a deep breath. His eyes blazing with fury, he glared at Wu Tian and drew the sword from his waist.

“Bastard, I’m going to kill you right now!”

“I advise you not to do anything foolish. Otherwise, the consequences will be severe.” Wu Tian narrowed his eyes and sneered.

“Damn it! You’re way too arrogant! You’re still showing off in front of our senior brother even now? Our senior brother is the son of the Myriad Sword Sect’s master. Are you looking to die?” Xu Jianren’s fellow disciples stepped forward and shouted arrogantly.

“Consequences will be severe? I’d like to see exactly what kind of severe consequences you can bring about!”

“How dare some immature brat act so arrogantly! Have you heard of the Myriad Sword Sect? It’s a major power in the Imperial City. Be careful, or we’ll wipe you out!”

Wu Tian immediately curled his lip and said disdainfully, “What’s so impressive about the Myriad Sword Sect? I’m from the Heaven-Equaling Sect. Heard of it?”

Xu Jianren was stunned. He looked Wu Tian up and down, then burst into laughter.

“Hahaha! You’re a disciple of the Heaven-Equaling Sect? That’s impossible! How could a pathetic fellow like you be a disciple of the Heaven-Equaling Sect? You’re not even worthy of putting shoes on its disciples!”

“Whether you believe me or not, I am indeed a disciple of the Heaven-Equaling Sect.” Wu Tian spread his hands, utterly unconcerned.

Xu Jianren stopped laughing and frowned at him.

“You’re really a disciple of the Heaven-Equaling Sect?”

“Mm. I am.” Wu Tian nodded.

“What proof do you have?” Xu Jianren pressed.

“Why the hell should I show you proof? You’re really annoying. If you don’t believe me, then forget it. I’m busy and need to get back to report in. Go play somewhere else.”

Wu Tian had no desire to waste any more time with this man. Returning to report and collecting his experience was far more important.

With that, he turned to leave.

But several of Xu Jianren’s fellow disciples blocked his path and sneered.

“Kid, after showing off in front of our senior brother, you think you can just leave? Whether or not you’re a disciple of the Heaven-Equaling Sect, you’re not leaving today!”

“Do you want to fight?” Wu Tian asked, narrowing his eyes.

“I’ve heard that every disciple of the Heaven-Equaling Sect is an elite. My Myriad Sword Sect would very much like to experience your sect’s techniques. Since we have such a rare opportunity today, how could we let it pass?” Xu Jianren spun the sword in his hand and smiled at Wu Tian.

“One move. I only need one move to take you down.” Wu Tian pointed at Xu Jianren.

“Hahaha…”

Xu Jianren and his fellow disciples burst into laughter, looking at Wu Tian as though he were an idiot.

Bang!

Before Xu Jianren’s laughter had even faded, Wu Tian was already standing in front of him. He lightly kicked him in the stomach.

With a thunderous crash, Xu Jianren’s body flew backward like a cannonball and slammed into the wall, leaving it deeply caved in.

All of Xu Jianren’s fellow disciples stared in shock at him embedded in the wall. They were completely dumbfounded and had no idea what had just happened.

“You… you cheated!” Xu Jianren lay on the ground, clutching his stomach in agony as he pointed at Wu Tian.

But the three of them had already gone far away. All Xu Jianren could see was Wu Tian’s rapidly disappearing back.

“What just happened?” his fellow disciples asked, their eyes wide.

“I… I don’t know. I only saw senior brother fly away…” Several disciples shook their heads.

Clutching his stomach in pain, Xu Jianren roared at the disciples behind him, “What are you standing there for? Go after that brat! Hurry! And help me up—I’m in agony!”

“Yes, senior brother!”

One group hurried to help Xu Jianren up while another went after Wu Tian. But Wu Tian was already far away, and the crowds in the streets were thick. They soon lost him and could only return dejectedly.

“Senior brother, we… we lost him,” several disciples reported gloomily.

“Damn it! Are you pigs? You actually lost a few people! Were you all idiots just now? You stood there doing nothing, like a bunch of pigs!”

Supported by several disciples, Xu Jianren vented his fury at the others.

“Senior brother, he said he was a disciple of the Heaven-Equaling Sect. We can investigate him. If he really is one of their disciples, we’ll find out immediately,” one of them suggested.

“You’re right. Investigate him—get to the bottom of it! Whether or not that bastard is a disciple of the Heaven-Equaling Sect, he dared to offend me, so I’ll make sure he regrets it. Ow… take me back. I’m dying here!”

Xu Jianren’s face was twisted with pain. He could barely stand and had to be escorted back to the sect by a whole group of people.

…

“Boss, you were incredible just now! That was the pinnacle of showing off. Every one of those people from the Myriad Sword Sect was left completely dumbfounded!” Niu Wuji gave Wu Tian a thumbs-up, still thrilled by what had happened.

“Actually, I wasn’t showing off just now. Everything I said was true.” Wu Tian shrugged, looking indifferent.

“Senior Brother Wu, there’s something I should remind you of,” Zhou Zheng said worriedly. “That man just now is the son of the Myriad Sword Sect’s master. Although the Myriad Sword Sect is nothing compared with the Heaven-Equaling Sect, Xu Jianren is still the sect master’s son. If they deliberately make trouble for you, Junior Brother Wu, you may find yourself in trouble.”

“If they come looking for trouble, I don’t mind beating them up. One comes, I beat one. A whole group comes, I beat the whole group!” Wu Tian declared霸气地.
