Seeing that Wang Xiao actually dared to stop him, the displeasure on Li Tongfu’s face intensified. He raised his hand and pushed Wang Xiao’s shoulder.
“Get lost!”
Before he could finish speaking, Wang Xiao slid to the side and easily dodged. Li Tongfu’s push missed and he staggered. His face immediately had a furious expression.
“Brat, you even dare to dodge!”
Li Tongfu cursed angrily and raised his hand to hit him. Lin Xiang’s expression changed and he was about to stop him, but he did not expect someone to be faster than him.
A burly figure flashed out and grabbed Li Tongfu’s wrist tightly.
Tang Longji grabbed Li Tongfu’s wrist with one hand and patted Wang Xiao’s shoulder with the other. “Kid, don’t be afraid! Uncle is here!”
.Thank you, Uncle Tang.”
Wang Xiao smiled bitterly and looked at Li Tongfu again. “Lord Shen, why don’t you just say it? How did I offend you?”
Li Tongfu ignored Wang Xiao and shook his wrist hard to break free. However, Tang Longji’s hand was like an iron clamp. No matter how hard he tried, he could not move it at all.
Helpless, Li Tongfu could only look at Wang Xiao. “You didn’t offend me, but I just don’t want to team up with you. Is there a problem?”
Wang Xiao was immediately a little angry when he heard this, but he still asked patiently, “Even if you don’t want to form a team, you have to have a reason, right? Why did you say that you would be killed by me?”
“Isn’t it obvious?”
Li Tongfu sneered and looked at Wang Xiao with disdain. “The four intermediate lords have all died inside. What can a half-grown kid like you do inside?”
Wang Xiao was instantly speechless.
If it were for any other reason, he could still refute. However, in terms of age, he really had nothing to say.
However, just because Wang Xiao had nothing to say did not mean that others had nothing to say.
Lin Xiang took a step forward and said in a low voice, “Lord Shen, you seem to be uninformed. Although lord Wang is young, his strength is definitely not to be underestimated!”
“That’s right!”
Tang Longji continued, “Don’t tell me you haven’t seen the live broadcast of the lord competition?
While the two of them were feeling indignant for Wang Xiao, Wu Yan was still standing at the side and did not speak. From the beginning of the conflict until now, he had always looked like he was watching a show, as if the matter here had nothing to do with him.
However, even if only two people spoke up for Wang Xiao, it was enough to double Li Tongfu’s anger.
“Alright, you all think he’s powerful, right?”
Li Tongfu’s face turned red as he sneered. He looked at Tang Longji and said angrily, “Then why are you still dragging me along? Can’t you just bring him
“No, our team has a division of labor.”
Tang Longji shook his head and said righteously, “Wang Xiao will lead the way for us. Lord Wu’s fire magic will be used to clean up the poisonous plants. I’ll be in charge of the main battle, and you’ll be healing our soldiers, so you can’t leave.”
Li Tongfu was speechless by Tang Longji, but Wang Xiao suddenly started to be distracted.
When he saw the three of them just now, Wang Xiao discovered that the configuration of this team was a little interesting. However, Lin Xiang immediately began to introduce them to each other, so he did not think too much about it.
Now that he heard Tang Longji say this, Wang Xiao realized that this team was specially prepared for the [Thorn Canyon]. It could be seen that the Lord’s Shop was indeed very experienced in such matters.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao suddenly recalled that his team seemed to be lacking a role in charge of healing.
The best candidate Wang Xiao could think of was Yang Fan, who had awakened the [Life Recovery] skill. However, they were now in two different academies. He did not know if they could persuade Yang Fan to join him.
After thinking about it in a mess, when Wang Xiao came back to his senses, Tang Longji had already let go of Li Tongfu. The latter stood by the teleportation door unwillingly, looking like he had no intention of going.
“Wang Xiao, follow me in a while!”
Tang Longji patted Wang Xiao and said heroically, “If the scale of the battle is too big, go find lord Wu. Don’t trouble lord Shen to treat you!”
When he said the word “trouble”, Tang Longji’s tone was obviously a little strange.
Wang Xiao was slightly stunned before reacting. He guessed that Li Tongfu had chosen to stay because Tang Longji had negotiated with him and asked Wang Xiao not to “trouble” him.
“Thank you, Uncle Tang.”
After thinking it through, Wang Xiao smiled at Tang Longji. Although he still had some objections to Li Tongfu, as a member of the martial world, he had no choice but to oblige. These people had formed a team at the last minute and he might not see them again in the future. He couldn’t be bothered to argue further.
Seeing that the conflict was temporarily resolved, Lin Xiang was the happiest. He said a few more polite words to ease the atmosphere before calling for the staff to open the teleportation door.
The teleportation door lit up. Tang Longji cleared his throat and said, “I’ll take the lead later. Lord Shen will go second—Wang Xiao! You and lord Wu will enter last!”
The others nodded. Li Tongfu sneered again. “It’s really new to have the person leading the way bring up the rear!”
Tang Longji’s expression darkened. “Then what do you want?”
Before Li Tongfu could speak, Wang Xiao took the initiative to suggest, “Uncle Tang, I’ll go in with you. I left a small base inside earlier. We can go in and activate the fortifications first.”
Tang Longji thought for a moment and nodded. “Then Wang Xiao and I will take the lead. The two of you will still be in the same order as before!”
After saying that, Tang Longji immediately walked into the teleportation door, as if he did not want to see Li Tongfu again.
Wang Xiao followed closely behind. After a spatial distortion, he arrived at the familiar [Thorn Canyon].
The base he had built previously stood quietly not far away.
Wang Xiao opened the interface and clicked a few times. The ten [Flame Magic Towers] on the wall started operating.
“Woah! A purple quality fortification?”
Tang Longji’s eyes lit up. He patted Wang Xiao’s shoulder and laughed, “You’re really generous to use such a good thing in a small secret realm!”
“Uncle Tang, you flatter me.”
Wang Xiao smiled in embarrassment. Actually, he did not want to use such high-level goods. However, by the time he returned from scouting, Zhou Xiruo had already built everything. He could not let her tear it down again, right?
As he spoke, a golden light flashed not far away and Li Tongfu’s figure immediately appeared.
Seeing the base and the [Flame Magic Towers] standing on the wall, Li Tongfu subconsciously revealed a surprised expression, but he immediately concealed it with disdain. “Tsk! It’s only purple quality. It’s nothing impressive!”
Wang Xiao and Tang Longji looked at each other and could not be bothered with this guy. Then, golden light flashed again and Wu Yan also arrived in the secret realm.
Seeing that everyone was here, Tang Longji clapped his hands and was about to speak when a dangerous aura suddenly enveloped him!
Whoosh—
The silver light flashed into the distance. Before everyone could react, the dangerous aura dissipated.
“Are you all right?!”
Tang Longji, who had reacted, shouted loudly. Wang Xiao and Wu Yan each responded, but they did not hear Li Tongfu’s voice for a long time.
The three of them turned around in confusion and saw Li Tongfu’s stocky figure still standing on the spot, but his head had already disappeared!
