Chapter 70 – Cunning Fox and Scheming Demons
Wei Feng and Wei Xiang glared at Xie Tian with murderous intent. The elder brother whispered to the troublemaker younger brother, "I\'ve seen your fight during the last round. I don\'t think you can win."
"I can reveal my true form. Once I transform, that human won\'t be able to touch me!"
"Idiot! If you reveal your identity, our clan will perish! Those humans are savages. They will hunt everyone with the surname Wei. I know that you and I will be fine surviving on our own, but our sister will be in danger. Do you want to complicate little Yuan!?"
Wei Feng gritted his teeth and glanced at Wei Yuan, who was playing with her new green robe. Her happy smiling face soothed him. But when he recalled that Xu Miao and Wei Yuan was in a relationship, he got moody again.
"You know what, brother? You\'re right. I\'m no match for Xie Tian without using my real power, but I can\'t allow that bastard to look down on us!"
"And you\'ll commit suicide by fighting him?"
"Of course not! I have another idea," Wei Feng laughed as he looked at Xu Miao, who was yawning and stretching.
…
Wei Feng leaped onto the stage, but he didn\'t bring a weapon with him. He gave Xie Tian and Jian Meng a friendly smile before he bowed to both of them.
"Xie Tian, it seems that there was a misunderstanding between us. I want to apologize to you if I offended you. Can you withdraw the challenge?"
Jian Meng and Xie Tian were taken aback by Wei Feng\'s sudden change of heart. However, the protagonist was unforgiving, "So, you\'re saying you\'re sorry after you\'ve murdered countless innocent people!? When they apologized to you, did you forgive them!? No, you didn\'t. My challenge stands. If you don\'t want to fight, kowtow to the families of your victims and apologize to all the girls that you tried to violate!"
Many spectators nodded in agreement. Some of them were families of the victims, and they wanted Wei Feng dead. However, if this villain could at least apologize to them, they could move on with their lives.
But Wei Feng was too prideful.
"Oh, really," Wei Feng\'s face changed, "Just because you\'re a bit stronger than me, you\'ve become arrogant! Fine, then! Xie Tian, I accept the death-match challenge, but I have a condition."
"What is it?"
"I will use my clan\'s representative to fight you. I will not fight you myself!"
Xie Tian was at a loss for words. He didn\'t expect that Wei Feng would be this cowardice, "You coward! Fight me like a man! Are you a sissy that only knows how to hide behind your parents all the time!?"
The grudge between Wei Feng and Xie Tian had already set in stone since the day that the oni young master visited Xie Tian\'s village.
There was a part of Xie Tian\'s story that Xu Miao didn\'t know. Wei Feng\'s goons used to humiliate Xie Tian in front of Jiang Lan and everyone in the village. Adding the new incident at the third round of trials and Xu Miao\'s lies, Xie Tian\'s hated Wei Feng with a passion.
Unless Wei Feng died, Xie Tian wouldn\'t be able to sleep soundly!
Meanwhile, Wei Feng did his best to control his anger. He wanted to draw his katana and chop Xie Tian right away, but he held himself.
"Are you going to accept my condition or not? Unless you can kill my representative, I won\'t fight you!"
"Whoever your representative is, send him here! I\'ll crush him, and I\'ll kill you for sure!"
As na?ve as he was, Xie Tian fell for Wei Feng\'s simple trick.
The villain laughed as he looked at the silver phoenix stand. He cupped his fist toward Xu Miao\'s direction and bowed, "I would like to invite young master Xu Miao to be my representative!"
…
"Dafuq!?"
Xu Miao spat the tea that he was drinking. He just returned, and he wanted to rest. Yet, trouble found him again.
Looking at the smug face of Wei Feng, Xu Miao yelled without thinking, "FUCK YOU, WEI FENG! WHY SHOULD I FIGHT IN YOUR NAME!? GO FIND SOMEONE ELSE!!"
Obviously, Xu Miao didn\'t want to fight Xie Tian. That protagonist\'s strength was level 7 of the 2nd stage while he was at the peak of the 1st realm. With the addition of plot armor skills and various boosts, Xu Miao believed that Xie Tian\'s real strength might have reached the peak of the 3rd stage.
Xu Miao wasn\'t confident that he could challenge Xie Tian right now. There was no point in risking his life for someone else.
But Wei Feng suddenly threatened him, "Young master Xu, you\'ve violated my sister, so you have to take responsibility! Since our Wei Clan and Xu Clan will be united as one, don\'t you feel trouble when your future brother-in-law is in danger!?"
That was the trick that Wei Feng and Wei Xiang had planned. They wanted to blackmail Xu Miao into becoming their scapegoat.
Unfortunately, Xu Miao didn\'t care about his reputation.
"FUCK Y\'ALL. THAT\'S NONE OF MY BUSINESS! I HAVEN\'T MARRIED WEI YUAN YET, SO WE\'RE STRANGERS! DON\'T INVOLVE ME IN YOUR COWARDICE SCHEME!"
Xu Miao sat down and pour more tea into his cup. He crossed his legs and leaned back, gesturing that he wouldn\'t move from that spot.
The action of Xu Miao made Xie Tian laughed. The protagonist liked this young master\'s attitude.
As for Wei Feng, his face reddened in anger. He wanted to scold Xu Miao for being shameless and insensible, but he couldn\'t find the right word to diss him.
While everyone was silent because of the awkwardness, Wei Huang stepped in. He patted his grandson\'s back and looked at Xu Miao.
"It\'s good to be unyielding, but you\'ve forgotten your place, Xu Miao. Indeed, you haven\'t married my granddaughter yet, but you DID something to her. Therefore, you owe us a favor. Until you\'ve married Wei Yuan, you have to compensate us, or you\'ll be accounted as a pervert criminal. I can\'t guarantee what the city guards would do to your clan if I file a complaint to the castellan and the imperial authority."
Wei Huang blackmailed Xu Miao that he had to return their favor right now, or the authority would come after his clan.
Xu Miao rolled his eyes. Since he knew that the real overlord of this city was Jia Shan, he didn\'t care about the so-called castellan and the authority.
Unfortunately, Qi Hong grabbed Xu Miao\'s collar and threw him to the arena.
Getting caught off guard, Xu Miao\'s body flew like a ragdoll, but he managed to adjust his posture mid-air and landed on his feet. Upon landing, he turned to Qi Hong and yelled, "HEY! WHAT WAS THAT FOR!?"
Qi Hong shrugged and pointed at Xu Xiuying, who was floating at the edge of the stage arena.
Xu Xiuying coughed, "Xu Miao. You have to take responsibility in this case. I know that it\'s not fair for you, but you\'ll have to stand for your wife\'s family members."
In reality, Xu Xiuying was also against this stupid challenge and the condition. However, because of Wei Huang\'s threat, she was afraid that Wei Huang might collude with Jia Shan to declare war against her sect by using this excuse. For the sake of the bigger picture, she compromised.
"Return the favor by fighting to the death for that petty asshole? Why do I keep getting pushed around when this fight has nothing to do with me!?" Xu Miao yelled in anger. Everything was none of his business.
"It\'s alright, son," Xu Xiuying snorted, "You don\'t have to fight in a deathmatch. Say, Xie Tian, is it fine if you and my son fight in a normal friendly match instead of a deathmatch?"
Xu Xiuying gave Xu Miao a way out of this mess. Her son could be Wei Feng\'s representative, but he wouldn\'t fight to the dead.
Xie Tian could read the atmosphere. Although he didn\'t like Xu Xiuying, he didn\'t want to kill Xu Miao, "I\'m alright with it. We can spar!"
Xu Miao and Xu Xiuying were relieved while Wei Huang and Wei Feng\'s faces distorted. The Wei Clan\'s plan to manipulate Xu Miao and Xie Tian into killing each other failed.
Still, Wei Huang was a cunning old demon. He requested an additional rule, "Good. However, both Xu Miao and Xie Tian seems to be close friends, so they might throw the match. I propose that both of them have to fight for at least a minute and spend at least 10,000 strands of qi during the match! If I find out that one of you doesn\'t give it your all, I\'ll disqualify Xia Tian and cancel the deathmatch!"
Another scheme was put on top of the sinister scheme. Wei Huang knew that his grandson wasn\'t Xie Tian\'s match, so he intervened and made it difficult for Xie Tian to reach his Wei Feng. Even if Xu Miao were to lose, Wei Feng could still be shameless and refuse the challenge.
Secondly, from Wei Yuan\'s testimony, Wei Huang learned about the lost heritage of the old oni clan was in Xu Miao\'s hands. He wanted to force Xu Miao to reveal his hidden secrets by using him in a public fight against his grandson\'s nemesis.
But there weren\'t only cunning demons on the field. A young fox also didn\'t miss this opportunity.
Xu Miao boldly glared into Wei Huang\'s eyes and demanded, "Fine. I\'ll be your representative and spar with Xie Tian, but you have to accept my condition!"
Wei Huang laughed, "What condition?"
Xu Miao got closer to Wei Huang. He whispered without letting Xu Xiuying, Xie Tian, or Jia Shan reading his lips.
"During the match, I want you to find an opening and kill Xie Tian for me."
"Oh?" Wei Huang smirked. He found Xu Miao\'s wickedness interesting, "Isn\'t he your friend? Why don\'t you kill him yourself?"
"Under the watch of Jia Shan and Luo Cheng? No, thank you. They\'re gonna kill me if I do it myself."
"Well, well, we both want him dead. Why are you trying to intervene with our plan, then?"
"That\'s because your entire clan is d-I mean, inefficient," Xu Miao almost said [Your entire clan is dumb as fuck], but he managed to correct his words, "You don\'t have to worry about what and why I am doing this. You concentrate on killing Xie Tian. Make sure that you cut his head, destroy his brain, rip his heart, and crush his dantian. Remember, cut his head, destroy his brain, rip his heart, and crush his dantian! Do it simultaneously!"
Wei Huang grinned. It would be easy to kill a weakling like Xie Tian, but there were issues with Xu Miao\'s request. Under the watch of Jia Shan, Wei Huang didn\'t think that he could kill the protagonist without going through the sect master first.
Thus, Wei Huang made an excuse, "Jia Shan and Luo Cheng will definitely intervene. I can\'t kill him myself, but I\'ll send someone to kill him for you."
"No, that won\'t do. He will survive if you send someone else! How about this? I want you to send your subordinates to block Jia Shan. I\'ll ask my mother to deal with Luo Cheng. Can you-"
Wei Huang grabbed Xu Miao\'s face and glared into his eyes. He warned the villainous young master, "Don\'t get too full of yourself. No one can tell me what to do. You go fight with your friend, and I\'ll find a way to kill him one way or another, grandson-in-law!"
The elder pushed Xu Miao away and left the stage.
Xu Miao could only glare back at Wei Huang in anger.
\'Arrogant idiot! Well, haiz. That plot armor gets in my way again. He probably can\'t kill Xie Tian today, but he should be able to injure him to some extent. Once Xie Tian is crippled, his value and his worth should degrade. Then, those elders won\'t pay attention to Xie Tian anymore…\'
Xu Miao\'s eyes gleamed. He schemed for his next moves.
