My name is Huang Tian, ​​what the hell is this "Heaven is dead" nonsense?

Chapter 88 The Strong

When the assassination attempt occurred, Bai Yuanfu happened to be in the Zhenwuwei government office. It should be said that he lived in the government office for many years and was stationed there.

So when he heard Nie Kun and Tie Qi's angry roars not far from the government office, his expression changed. Without thinking, he leaped out of the government office, his blood boiling and his true energy surging. He crossed the sky at a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to see.

Although he was not yet a grandmaster and could not fly, a single leap covered a distance of several dozen feet, which to ordinary people was not much different from flying. In this way, in just a few dozen breaths, he arrived at the place where Huang Tian was attacked and killed.

Bang bang! !
His feet slammed into the ground with a thunderous crash, almost shaking the alleyway. Stones flew everywhere like bullets, and amidst the thick dust, Shirahara's eyes blazed as he quickly scanned the battle.

Huang Tian was in perfect health, breathing peacefully, and his clothes were not even dirty. He appeared to be unharmed.

very good!

Looking at Nie Kun and Tie Qi, apart from their flushed faces due to the rush of blood to their faces, they did not appear to be injured.

very nice!
Then he looked at the thugs lying on the alley in a sorry state. They were all listless, spitting blood, and some were seriously injured and unconscious.

very good!

Bai Yuanfu immediately felt relieved and burst into laughter, "Nie Kun, Tie Qi, you two did a great job!"

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the alleyway immediately became strange. Even the seriously injured Zhang Yu and the others looked at Bai Yuanfu with extremely strange eyes, leaving him stunned for a while, wondering what he had said wrong.

What exactly happened? Is the situation different from what I expected?

Seeing Bai Yuanfu's confusion, Nie Kun sighed helplessly, hesitated, and finally managed to say, "Governor, today's matter cannot be explained in a few words. I will explain it to you in detail with Tie Qi and Huang Tian when we return to the government office."

Both Tie Qi and Huang Tian nodded to Bai Yuanfu.

At this moment, another burst of noisy footsteps and shouts rang out. Looking up, one could see Xia Hong, Wang Qianhu, and others dressed in official robes leading a large group of Zhenwu Guards armed with swords and crossbows.

"The Garrison Commander!"

A large group of armored warriors carrying crossbows rushed to the entrance of the alley and stood still. Xia Hong walked in with a grim expression, but when he saw that Huang Tian was unharmed, he breathed a sigh of relief and turned to bow to Bai Yuanfu.

After bowing, he glanced around, his gaze lingering on Zhang Yu's face, who was slumped on the ground with his face mask knocked off. His eyes narrowed, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Feihong Sect!!"

Bai Yuanfu also looked at Zhang Yu, seemingly lost in thought, then waved his hand and said seriously, "I'm here, we don't need too many people. You leave a few people to tie up these thugs and take them to the prison for strict interrogation. The rest of you go help put out the fire and arrest the thugs' accomplices."

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison. Several strong men took out ropes, stepped forward, tied up Zhang Yu and the others who were paralyzed on the ground and had no strength to speak, and carried them away. The rest of the men rushed to the place where the flames were raging to put out the fire.

Shirahara asked, "Huang Tian, ​​are you alright?"

Huang Tian shook his head and smiled, "Governor, I'm fine."

Nie Kun and Tie Qi exchanged a glance, both feeling a bit uneasy.

"It's good that you're alright, but you should still come with me to the government office now, lest the thugs have accomplices outside who might attack you."

"it is good."

The four of them went to the government office together. Along the way, they saw many strongmen carrying knives and crossbows running around. Not only that, but almost all the constables and yamen runners from the Six Doors and the patrol office of the prefectural government were also mobilized to search for the thieves.

Inside a brightly lit warm room in the Zhenwu Guard's yamen, Bai Yuanfu sat on a soft couch, while Huang Tian and the others also took their seats. "Now, can you explain in detail what exactly happened?" Bai Yuanfu asked.

Nie Kun glanced at Tie Qi, who scratched his head, smiled with mixed feelings, and said, "Commander, when Huang Tian was attacked and killed today..."

He explained the whole story in detail, and Shirahara's eyes widened more and more.

"What?! You mean Huang Tian defeated those two fifth-rank martial artists?!"

He couldn't sit still any longer, jumped up, and asked in surprise, "You're not joking, you're serious?"

Tie Qi said helplessly, "How could I dare to make such a joke? If you don't believe me, you can ask Brother Nie."

Meeting Bai Yuanfu's gaze, Nie Kun nodded: "The course of events is indeed as Brother Tie described."

Shirahara's heart was instantly filled with shock, and even though he tried his best to control his expression, the shock in his eyes could not be hidden.

"Huang Tian, ​​you...you only just broke through to the middle third rank, how can you be so strong?!"

He was already surprised that Huang Tian had broken through from the seventh rank to the middle third rank in half a month, but Huang Tian's performance tonight was equally astonishing.

One person defeated two fifth-rank martial artists and several sixth-rank martial artists in a single exchange; such strength is almost no less than that of a fourth-rank martial artist!

Huang Tian was quite frank: "Has the Commander forgotten that I have read over a thousand martial arts manuals and mastered almost every one of them? It is only natural that my strength surpasses that of other martial artists of the same rank?"

The seemingly ordinary words left the three of them stunned. After a moment of stunned silence, they suddenly realized, "Yes, if we master all of the more than a thousand martial arts techniques, wouldn't it be a given that we can defeat our enemies across borders?"

"yes……"

Bai Yuanfu nodded blankly, then suddenly realized something and looked at Nie Kun, "Was anyone else there when Huang Tian made his move?"

Nie Kun told the truth, "Yes, there are several people."

The county town is full of hidden talents, with many experts. The fight between Nie Kun and Zhang Yu and others was so loud that it was impossible for no one to hear or see it.

He had just noticed several dark figures standing on the eaves of a house not far from the alley. Those figures were clearly martial artists who had heard the commotion and were watching from a distance.

Upon hearing this, Shirahara Fusuke frowned slightly, pondered for a long time, and then slowly relaxed his brow.

"It doesn't matter. So what if he's seen? Everyone knows Huang Tian's comprehension. He can learn all kinds of martial arts techniques with ease. It's only natural that such a genius can defeat his enemies across borders."

At this point, he turned to Huang Tian and said solemnly, "After the news spreads, some forces will become even more jealous of you. For example, the one who attacked you tonight should be the Fei Hong Sect. They failed to assassinate you this time, but they will definitely not give up and try again. You will face many assassination attempts in the future, so you must be more careful."

Huang Tian smiled slightly: "I understand."

Once a portion of their strength is revealed, they will inevitably incur the envy of many, not only from sects and factions, but also from within the imperial court and even the Zhenwu Guard itself.

Not everyone is willing to be a talent scout like Shirahara Susuke. Many people would rather be the butcher who slaughters the thoroughbred horse and explore the secret of how fast it runs.

However, Huang Tian will not choose to grow slowly for fear of being envied. It is very beneficial to show some strength appropriately. Potential is never the same as strength. For example, the strength he has shown now is enough to be considered one of the top people in Kunyun County. In this way, he can be regarded as a strong person, rather than a former genius.

People always show more respect, tolerance, and generosity to the strong than to geniuses!
