Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 420: Chapter 234: The Formidable Kang Tai

Lan Liu looked at Kang Tai, who was about to stride straight into the valley. Her face paled with fright, and she hurriedly grabbed his arm.

”Brother Kang, what are you doing?”

Kang Tai smiled faintly and said, ”What am I doing? Naturally, I’m going to kill Gu Sheng and reclaim the Demon Suppression Golden Scroll. Hah, that Vajra Demon Suppression Bell is far more powerful than the Golden Scroll. If we bring it back this time, the Second Elder will definitely reward us handsomely.”

Upon hearing this, Lan Liu quickly shook her head. ”Brother Kang, you mustn’t! We must plan this carefully!”

At these words, Kang Tai’s smile vanished, replaced by an icy expression.

”What? Are you implying that kid is better than me?”

At the Demon Suppression Sect ruins, Gu Sheng had displayed his strength, which was enough to overpower Zhu Hong.

Zhu Hong’s strength was comparable to Kang Tai’s. If Gu Sheng could suppress Zhu Hong, he could naturally suppress Kang Tai as well—not to mention that Lin Tianhao and the elite disciples of the Haoyang Sect were also in this valley.

Seeing Kang Tai’s expression shift, Lan Liu immediately rearranged her words.

”Brother Kang, you may not know this, but it’s not just Gu Sheng in the valley. Lin Tianhao and twelve elite disciples from the Haoyang Sect are also there. Though I’m not sure why they’re together, based on what I saw, it seems like they’ve formed some kind of alliance. Right now, it’s just the two of us—charging in recklessly is as good as throwing our lives away!”

When Kang Tai heard that Lin Tianhao was also present, not only did he remain unshaken, but his expression even carried a trace of amusement. ”Heh, Lin Tianhao? What a coincidence. I was just wondering where to find him, and now he shows up here. Fine, I’ll take care of them all in one go!”

”???

Lan Liu looked at Kang Tai with an unfamiliar gaze.

She felt as if Kang Tai had become a completely different person, utterly unlike his usual self.

In the past, Kang Tai would have been extremely serious upon hearing Lin Tianhao’s name. After praising him, he would slip away discreetly. But now, Kang Tai’s relaxed demeanor made it seem as though he didn’t take Lin Tianhao seriously at all.

Lan Liu thought she might not have explained clearly enough, so she hurriedly rearranged her words and repeated them.

”Brother Kang, this valley doesn’t just have Gu Sheng—it also has Lin Tianhao and twelve elite Haoyang Sect disciples! Each of them is stronger than I am, and even if you’re stronger, you’re not much ahead of them either. Let’s leave the matter of the scroll to the sect’s leaders after the Red Cloud Secret Domain mission is over.”

Kang Tai smirked. ”So what? If it were before, I might have shown Lin Tianhao some respect. But now that my strength has greatly improved, it’s a different story. Even Lin Tianhao isn’t my match anymore! His reputation doesn’t intimidate me.”

With that, Kang Tai shook off Lan Liu’s hand and strode confidently into the canyon.

Lan Liu stood rooted to the spot, deep in thought as she watched Kang Tai’s confident figure. In the end, she clenched her teeth and followed behind him.

Over the past several days, the bond between Gu Sheng and Lin Tianhao had grown exceptionally close. At this moment, the two were sitting together, exchanging stories about their pasts.

Lin Tianhao’s family, though not considered a major power in the Red Cloud Prefecture, was far stronger than the most prominent families in Canghe County. At the very least, they had Marrow Refining Realm experts presiding over their household, and resources for Refining Skin and Blood Refining cultivation were plentiful.

From a young age, Lin Tianhao had trained in martial arts without concerns over resources, paving a smooth path in Martial Arts. Gu Sheng, by contrast, had a completely different life. Even obtaining the qualifications to practice martial arts required great effort on his part. Lin Tianhao couldn’t help but be amazed and fascinated by Gu Sheng’s colorful life, listening intently to his stories.

For Gu Sheng, who had few friends in this world, Gu Xiaojiang back in Gu’s Manor could be considered one, and now Lin Tianhao had become another. Gu Sheng was more than willing to share amusing tales of his past with his friends.

When Gu Sheng recounted the times he had shared a pot of hotpot with the hunters from Gu’s Manor, Lin Tianhao’s eyes were filled with curiosity.
