Chapter 143: Muddy the Waters

The young beast can be taken directly; the Heaven Sword — but now I've only gotten half of it.

Moreover, Zhou Tian's martial arts talent is indeed formidable.

Although it's only half of the Heaven Sword, his strength has also increased considerably.

What Yang Jun resents most is that the sneak attack he suffered today was also the work of Zhou Tian's men.

In that case, Zhou Tian has given me no escape; then what I must do should be as simple as can be, shouldn't it?

This Zhou Tian must be dealt with — he is the target I need to resolve.

Now Zhou Tian is already fighting alongside the Beast King — isn't this an opportunity for me?

Heaven Sword — if I can reunite its two halves, wouldn't its power increase greatly?

Yang Jun's mind is even more focused on this, pondering the best way to deal with it.

To resolve these matters, one still needs a method.

Now, having a countermeasure seems to require acting against some of the people present!

After such consideration, Yang Jun quickly pulled a few hairs from the young beast's body.

Grasping those hairs, Yang Jun swiftly rushed forward through the mountains and forests.

Yang Jun's target is precisely Zhou Tian in the midst of battle.

At this moment, a large group of talented youths surrounded the Beast King, launching attacks one after another.

The Beast King kept roaring, opposing the talented youths.

Perhaps the Beast King hadn't expected this outcome.

These talented youths also erupt with tremendous strength, and their numbers are many.

So, although the Beast King is strong, he also suffers losses and keeps retreating.

However, the Beast King came here to find the young beast.

Thus, even though he is besieged at this time, he does not retreat.

Precisely for this reason, the Beast King now, amidst his roars, is already on the verge of going berserk.

The Beast King's performance and this battle situation are an even greater opportunity for the talented youths.

Because to them, all of this now is the Beast King's effort to protect his young beast.

Thus, the talented youths all once again exert their full strength in attack.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Tian, at this moment, took a deep breath and drew the Heaven Sword from his back.

"General Zhou, are you relying on the advantage of the Heaven Sword?"

"General Zhou, isn't what you're doing somewhat inappropriate?"

"Yes, General Zhou, are you bullying us because we lack divine weapons?"

"You're using a divine weapon to slay the Beast King just to obtain the young beast, right?"

Seeing this, Yang Jun smirked, flashed his figure, and swiftly shifted his position among the crowd.

Moreover, he kept speaking.

Yang Jun's position kept changing, and his voice likewise kept changing.

One after another, they kept shifting.

Hearing Yang Jun's words, Zhou Tian felt both anger and resentment.

Fighting the Beast King to obtain the young beast — who wouldn't want that?

There's no need to say more; naturally, this is what Zhou Tian wants to obtain.

But in this situation, Zhou Tian finds himself indignant and unable to find a reason to rebut.

"Zhou Tian, what you're doing is underhanded!"

"Yes, Zhou Tian, you're relying on the Heaven Sword's advantage just to monopolize it, right?"

"Hehe, even while we're still fighting the Beast King, you've already done this — aren't you going too far?"

"The Heaven Sword can defend against the Beast King, but it can also defend against us."

"Right, with such a weapon in hand, attacking us later would give you a huge advantage, wouldn't it?"

"Wielding the Heaven Sword to force us to retreat lets you reap all the victory — you really know how to calculate."

In an instant, these talented youths spoke one after another without cease.

In their eyes, dissatisfaction flickered.

None of these talented youths come from simple backgrounds.

For them, they have experienced much, and for any matter they also have their own internal considerations and views.

Now, with Yang Jun saying this on the side, everyone naturally has formed an opinion.

We're all fighting the Beast King; seeing that, thanks to our numerical advantage, the Beast King is retreating — yet now Zhou Tian actually brings out the Heaven Sword; what does that mean?

What right does he have? How dare he do this? On what basis? In this way, he wants to completely control us?

"Yes, Zhou Tian is going too far — you just want to monopolize the spoils!"

Seeing that the atmosphere had reached this point, Yang Jun immediately spoke up and let out another roar.

Yang Jun paid close attention to his positioning.

With each utterance, he shifted to another position the next moment.

Moreover, everyone now feels anger and dissatisfaction toward Zhou Tian.

So, no one pays attention to Yang Jun in the crowd.

Furthermore, no one regards Yang Jun's actions or behavior as anything significant.

Such a situation is merely a more basic circumstance.

Zhou Tian is very indignant, his eyes filled with fury.

But even so, he became even more clear about one thing.

Public anger is hard to provoke.

No matter how strong or fierce one becomes, it's not that one can oppose everything and strive for it.

He gave a cold snort and had no choice but to put away the Heaven Sword.

"Alright, I don't need the Heaven Sword."

"I just don't believe that without the Heaven Sword I can't obtain it!"

Zhou Tian drew a deep breath and then slowly exhaled.

At last he managed to avoid letting out a roar from anger.

In such a situation, Zhou Tian at this moment thus expressed what was in his heart.

Self‑proclaimed a heaven‑gifted prodigy, he grew even more convinced that he could control everything.

All those he faced were talented, yet Zhou Tian felt no inferiority in any respect.

"Just saying you don't need it means you don't need it? Who can guarantee that? What if you use it again at a critical moment? After all, the Heaven Sword is in your hands."

A sneering voice came from the crowd; Zhou Tian looked over, and someone in the crowd was speaking, but he couldn't see who.

Just then the crowd broke into another run, after all they were in the midst of battling the Beast King.

The next moment, someone lunged at Zhou Tian.

Zhou Tian started in surprise, just about to act.

But this person immediately turned his back to him.

"What are you doing? Our General Zhou acts with integrity; if he says he doesn't need it, he doesn't need it."

"General, entrust your sword to me; go ahead and deal with the Beast King to achieve victory!"

"Moreover, with the General's skill, even without Heaven Sword or Earth Sword, victory is still possible!"

Yang Jun spoke with a strained voice; Zhou Tian, at a glance, saw his clothing and quickly concluded that the person before him was the one he had sent to deal with Yang Jun.

"What about Yang Jun?"

"General, rest assured, everything is fine."

"The matter of Yang Jun has been completely resolved."

Yang Jun did not retreat, merely lowering his voice to respond.

Such a remark left Zhou Tian very satisfied.
