Chapter 2268: Chapter 2263: Debate with Lu Gou

"Boom."

A blinding flame lit up in the sky. Tang Ming stopped in his tracks and looked towards the place where the flame was shining.

That should be where the people who previously attacked the Fox Tail Mountain Range were imprisoned. Could it be that those prisoners have escaped?

Tang Ming raised an eyebrow and quickly walked towards the place where the criminals were being held.

Zeng Qiang finally saw his fourth brother and Master. When Master Kongju Demon Lu Gou appeared before him, tears fell from his eyes in an instant: "Master, we’ve embarrassed you."

"Hmph. Let’s not talk about that now, come with me."

Fearsome Demon Lu Gou reached out and directly released the sealed acupoints of Zeng Qiang and Zeng Meng.

Black ghost fog wafted around, and Hu Jiuze appeared in the courtyard.

His gaze fell on Fearsome Demon Lu Gou, with a flicker of surprise in his eyes: "Lu Gou. Unexpectedly, you old thing, you’ve really come."

"Master, it was he who killed our third brother."

Zeng Meng looked at Hu Jiuze with venomous eyes.

Lu Gou and Zeng Wang’s gazes also landed on Hu Jiuze.

Hu Jiuze’s eerie laughter rang out: "That’s right, Lu Gou, you old geezer, it was I who killed your disciple. Do you know, the City Lord of West Desolation City is associated with the demon from the Demon Abyss, your disciple was working for him, trying to kill Tang Mosheng Bro’s son."

"I don’t care who they were helping, but my two disciples died at your hands. Judging by your voice, you must be Hu Jiuze of the Fox Spirit Mountain Range’s Twins."

Lu Gou said coldly as he looked at Hu Jiuze.

Hu Jiuze nodded, then said: "What, want to fight me? Don’t forget, this is the Fox Spirit Mountain Range. Moreover, I already died once back then, now I am a ghost cultivator. If you can free me, I would indeed be grateful to you, old lady."

Black ghost fog quickly emanated from Hu Jiuze’s puppet body.

A nine-tailed ghost fox grew larger and larger in mid-air, enveloping the entire Fox Tail Mountain Range.

"What’s going on."

Tang Ming landed beside Hu Mei’er. He looked up, his gaze falling on the hovering Fearsome Demon Lu Gou in mid-air.

At this time, the sky over the mountains dimmed, with only Hu Jiuze’s two dark red eyes and gray teeth visible in mid-air.

Lu Gou’s skinny figure held a dark short hook, one encompassing the world, the other like a sharp sword, neither of them willing to concede.

"That is Fearsome Demon Lu Gou, Master of the Zeng family brothers and Meng Xiao. He just killed the guard of the Zeng family brothers and rescued them."

Hu Mei’er stood on the side explaining to Tang Ming.

Tang Ming slightly raised his eyebrows, then coughed and said: "Ninth Aunt, please come back. I have never met Senior Lu Gou, but he was, after all, a strong opponent against the Demon Abyss back then, someone who should be reasonable. You were friends before, why hurt harmony over small matters?"

Tang Ming’s voice wasn’t quiet, drawing the attention of Lu Gou and the Zeng family brothers onto him.

Now, Tang Ming was the ruler of the West Desolation Land. When Lin Hao went to the West Desolation City, the old demon of West Desolation had disappeared. The so-called study with a statue tribute to the Demon Monarch was empty.

However, from the position of the pedestal, it was indeed a place of tribute, but whether this statue was dedicated to a Great Emperor of the Immortal Mountain or the Demon Monarch of the Demon Abyss, was unknown.

The old demon of West Desolation left West Desolation City, leaving it to be taken over by Lin Hao.

To get West Desolation City to properly operate, Lin Hao summoned Guo Cunhou back to West Desolation City, having him manage it together with Zhan Pengfei.

With Lin Hao’s involvement, both Zhan Pengfei and Guo Cunhou expressed their support for West Continent City, becoming a part of it.

After all, Zhan Pengfei’s relationship with Tang Mosheng was known; out of respect for Tang Mosheng, he would help Tang Ming.

Moreover, when Guo Cunhou returned to West Desolation City, he brought along several precious elixir recipes given by Tang Ming.

Hu Jiuze landed beside Tang Ming, not returning to her puppet body, but transformed into an alluring woman in a black robe.

Lu Gou landed opposite Tang Ming, while Zeng Qiang came to Lu Gou’s side, whispering introductions: "His name is Tang Ming, son of Tang Mosheng, also the manager here. The Fox Spirit Mountain Range, Dou Niu Mountain Range, and West Desolation City are all under his control now."

"Hmm."

Lu Gou nodded, scrutinizing Tang Ming, then said: "I knew Tang Mosheng, he was a real man. There aren’t many I, Lu Gou, admire, but he’s one of them. However, his son is somewhat disappointing, just a guy living off his father’s reputation. Only those flirtatious foxes of the Fox Spirit Mountain Range would flatter you."

"Senior Lu Gou, though I don’t agree with your words, I respect your right to speak. Since this matter concerns the Fox Spirit Mountain Range and you, as the City Lord of West Continent City and manager of the Fox Spirit Mountain Range, I shall argue with you."

Tang Ming’s gaze fell upon Lu Gou.

But Lu Gou grinned: "Argue, that’s something only cowards do. I, Lu Gou, may have been reasonable before, but not anymore. Both my first and fourth disciples died by your hands. Regardless of the cause, the result is they are dead, and I, as their master, must avenge them."

"Very well, do you wish to see your two disciples turn into demons and be attacked by everyone in the Taoyuan World, or do you believe that even if they become demons, you can protect them?"

Tang Ming nodded, pointing towards Zeng Qiang and Zeng Meng.

The three Zeng brothers were all stunned, even Lu Gou showing an expression of surprise: "Tang Ming, what do you mean by this, sounding alarmist."

"Senior, look at the black lines on his body, and recall what a demon looks like."

Tang Ming’s lips curled slightly.

Lu Gou reached out, pulling Zeng Qiang to the side, his pupils contracting: "What’s going on, are you colluding with the Demon Abyss like that damn City Lord?"

Zeng Qiang shook his head repeatedly: "Master, I’d never dare. We were framed by Skull Master, who used a secret technique, making us like this. Not only me, but everyone else in the prison is the same."

Lu Gou took a deep breath, squinting his eyes at Tang Ming, then said: "Tang Mosheng’s son, just as cunning as him. However, since you brought this up, there should be a way to resolve it, right?"
