Chapter 449: Chapter 449 Who is More Sinister

"Brother Zibo, can we come in?"

Outside the tent stood four young men with extraordinary demeanors.

The young man inside the tent, polishing his treasure sword, was none other than Shi Zibo, ranked fiftieth.

Shi Zibo slowly sheathed the longsword in his hand, then stood up and said indifferently, "Please come in!"

The four outside entered one after another.

If anyone knew these four people, they would certainly be shocked. Because these four were the top four in the rankings.

The young man in black attire with a cold face was Xiahou Jun, ranked first.

Beside him, also in black attire but with a genteel demeanor, was Mu Lingchen, ranked second.

The slightly shorter young man with sharp eyes was Wu Zhao, ranked third.

As for the fourth, it was Bai Siyin, the successor of the White Tiger Guardian God. A male who looked feminine, fair and delicate, appeared like a girl. But no one dared underestimate him. Despite his delicate appearance, once he moves, he turns from a rabbit into a fierce tiger, with a combat style that is wildly chaotic.

"Brother Zibo, are you confident in defeating Lang Da?" Xiahou Jun asked. Lang Da was the one challenging Shi Zibo this time, a famous young strongman from the Southern Country.

Lang Da challenged Shi Zibo because a year ago, Shi Zibo had killed Lang Ying, Lang Da’s younger brother, who was sneaking into Longxia during his travels at the border.

Shi Zibo tightened his grip on his sword, his knuckles turning white: "I will give it my all, fight to the death."

Mu Lingchen’s eyes flickered slightly: "Brother Zibo, I investigated. Lang Da successfully broke through to the Late Stage Golden Core a month ago."

Upon hearing this, Shi Zibo gripped his sword even tighter.

Wu Zhao said seriously, "In that case, the battle is disadvantageous for Brother Zibo."

Shi Zibo is currently only at the Mid Golden Core, having just broken through not long ago.

Mu Lingchen said, "How about this, I will fight on behalf of Brother Zibo. This battle is inherently unfair, and if I fight, I believe they have no reason to object."

"Brother Zibo, I mean no offense by suggesting this. You are a renowned strongman on our Longxia list, a loss we cannot afford. Lang Da is sinister, and in battle, swords show no mercy. I fear he may aim to kill."

Shi Zibo was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Lang Da challenged me, and I accepted this battle. It’s my fight, so I must fight, even if it means dying."

Xiahou Jun and the others fell silent.

This battle was not only a personal vendetta between Lang Da and Shi Zibo but also related to national pride.

Longxia Martial Arts has a long history, always surpassing other countries. The repeated provocations of various countries aim to cut off Longxia’s heritage. And these young strongmen on the list are the martial heritage.

Despite an appearance of calm, each of them has faced assassination attempts from other countries more than once.

The people of these insignificant countries are always shameless. If Shi Zibo loses this time, God knows how they will tarnish Longxia Martial Arts.

However, they could understand Shi Zibo. This was about a Qi Refiner’s dignity. If he doesn’t fight when challenged, Shi Zibo wouldn’t just disgrace himself; it would bring shame to the whole Longxia Martial Arts.

Xiahou Jun said, "Alright, everyone, stop worrying. I believe Brother Zibo will defeat Lang Da. These insignificant countries practice merely the scraps of our Longxia."

"Brother Zibo, go for it!" Wu Zhao said earnestly.

The other two, though silent, looked on with trust.

Shi Zibo felt warmth in his heart: "Thank you! I appreciate the support from you four."

Xiahou Jun laughed, "What are you talking about? This concerns the honor of Longxia. As sons of Longxia, how can we let these clowns prance around unchecked?"

"Brother Zibo, tomorrow just focus on battling Lang Da. If anyone else dares to intervene, I will show them that Longxia’s honor is inviolable." Wu Zhao’s face was full of killing intent.

"Master is guarding the West, told me to watch and guard against those treacherous clowns out there." Bai Siyin said softly, his fair face blushing slightly, looking shy.

If he were walking on the street, no one would believe he was the successor of the White Tiger Guardian God, known for his destructive combat style.

Despite the usual struggles and frictions, whenever it comes to a major issue, they always unite their strength against outsiders.

Mu Lingchen suddenly laughed.

"Brother Mu, why are you laughing?" Xiahou Jun asked curiously.

Mu Lingchen laughed, "Just now when Bai was talking about those treacherous clowns, I suddenly thought of someone."

Wu Zhao said, "Brother Mu, you’re not thinking of Qin Yi, are you?"

Mu Lingchen paused briefly, then nodded: "Exactly! Have you heard the community’s evaluation of him? Shameless, insidious and crafty. I wonder if he met those clowns, who would be more cunning?"

Wu Zhao shook his head with a smile: "I’ve heard so too. I also recently heard an interesting rumor. They say this guy is pretending to save the world, wanting to conquer all of us under his command."

"It’s said he’s quite crafty, otherwise even the Azure Dragon Guardian God wouldn’t treat him differently." Xiahou Jun said with a smile.

Wu Zhao looked at Bai Siyin: "Bai, since you’re also a successor of a Guardian God, tell us whether Qin Yi has real abilities or is just seeking fame?"

Bai Siyin bowed his head, whispering: "I’ve never met him, but Master said that if I meet him, I should give him a beating."

"Hmm? Why is that? Does the White Tiger Guardian God dislike Qin Yi that much?" Xiahou Jun asked curiously.

Bai Siyin shook his head: "I don’t know, I just do what Master says."

Actually, Bai Siyin did know the reason. Although his master was one of the Four Guardian Gods, he was always overshadowed by the Azure Dragon Guardian God. So his master told him: "I may never surpass the Azure Dragon in my life, but you have to make me proud and outshine Qin Yi."

"Looks like Qin Yi really isn’t well-liked." Wu Zhao laughed.

Mu Lingchen laughed: "How can he not be loathed? It’s said that those who went to Yinfeng City to challenge him almost ended up leaving naked."

"As the successor of the Azure Dragon Guardian God, it’s shameful to fight for fame and profit. This man will achieve nothing." Shi Zibo said with a disdainful tone, evidently looking down on Qin Yi.

Xiahou Jun waved his hand and laughed, "Forget it, let’s consider this as post-dinner entertainment. What’s most important now is tomorrow’s battle; Brother Zibo, rest well, we await your grand display of power, slaying Lang Da and boosting our nation’s prestige."

Shi Zibo clasped his fist: "I will do my best and fight to the death."

"Then Brother Zibo, have a good rest!"

The four clasped their fists and left the tent.

Meanwhile, Qin Yi, whom they casually discussed, was driving at high speed. Suddenly, he sneezed several times in succession, wondering: Damn, someone must be scheming against me. I’d like to know who it is. Otherwise, I’ll beat you so hard your mother won’t recognize you.
