ABCFWGR Chapter 79 Do You Want to Live?

"Bang!"

A loud explosion, and a shocking wave of energy swept out.

Li Chen was directly blasted backwards, crashing heavily to the ground, blood spewing from his mouth.

Even Zhang Tieshou, who was far away by the wall, couldn't escape unscathed, emitting a muffled grunt.

And Xia Xiaorou, who had already been knocked unconscious, also wore a pained expression.

"You're not a newly promoted grandmaster!"

Even Hu Han, who had retreated more than ten steps, widened his eyes in astonishment.

"Do you still think you're qualified to be my master?"

Gu Chen retorted.

Hu Han's old face flushed red, but he didn't erupt. Instead, he spoke to Gu Chen in a tone usually reserved for equals: "I was wrong. I underestimated your talent. I apologize to you and your master."

"But, at the end of the day, I must take the Third Young Master of our family away. The grudges between you two will be explained to the Family Head."

"Let's settle this matter amicably, shall we?"

At any time, the strong always command respect.

If Gu Chen's strength hadn't been unequal, Hu Han would never have spoken like this.

"How about it?"

Gu Chen raised an eyebrow and smiled. "I don't think that sounds like much of anything!"

At his words, Hu Han was taken aback, furrowing his brow. "Are you too arrogant? By handling it this way, the Li family will actually suffer losses, and you won't suffer any. I hope you'll reconsider!"

He thought Gu Chen had no reason to refuse.

He must still be too young, not considering the situation comprehensively. He deserved another chance.

"No need to consider. I always do what I say. If I say he'll die without a whole corpse, then not even a bone will be left."

Gu Chen didn't hesitate at all.

"In that case, are you sure you want to challenge me head-on?" Hu Han suppressed his anger. "I admit, your strength is not below mine, but you're too young. You may not have as much experience in dealing with enemies as I do, so it's hard to say if you'll win!"

When two tigers fight, one will be injured.

Despite sounding confident, he actually wasn't sure and still hoped for a peaceful resolution through words.

"Why go through all this trouble when we can just fight it out?" Gu Chen said indifferently.

"It seems a fight is unavoidable!" Hu Han's old face also darkened.

Just as Gu Chen was about to speak, Hu Han seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, a punch aiming straight for Gu Chen's head, while grinning, "Kid, you're still too young. If you're going to act, stop wasting time talking!"

"In a battle between masters, whoever seizes the initiative wins!"

Seeing his triumphant look, it seemed he already had the victory in his grasp.

Just as his fist was inches away from Gu Chen's head, despite using all his strength, he couldn't make any progress.

"Snap!"

In Hu Han's bewildered eyes, Gu Chen casually slapped him across the face.

"You talk so high and mighty about a sneak attack, yet your face is thick enough to withstand it!"

Just an ordinary slap.

Not highly damaging, but incredibly insulting.

Hu Han angrily pulled back, not believing this was happening again.

"Could it be..."

"No! Absolutely impossible!"

"An expert at your age is already extremely rare, but it's impossible for you to be a Dao Immortal!"

Gazing at his appearance of barely twenty, throughout history, there have been many remarkable geniuses, but never before has there been such a young Dao Immortal, which is truly astonishing to hear.

"Hehe!"

Gu Chen let out a light laugh, then his body shook.

Suddenly, Hu Han flew out like a kite with a broken string, blood surging within him.

"I... It's really a Dao Immortal!"

Hu Han was scared out of his wits, cold sweat pouring down his face, leaving only fear.

Even though it was hard to accept, he had to believe the truth because besides a Dao Immortal, no one could treat a Grandmaster like a plaything.

"Since you are a Dao Immortal, why play tricks on me!" Hu Han was both shocked and angry.

A Dao Immortal is beyond the ranks of ordinary martial artists, able to tap into the power of heaven and earth, possessing the strength to move mountains and seas.

They are truly proud and aloof beings!

While moving mountains and seas might be exaggerated, it's not far off.

Although Hu Han had never fought a Dao Immortal before, he knew that Gu Chen hadn't used his full strength. Otherwise, with his Grandmaster level of strength, he wouldn't be a match at all.

A deep sense of despair welled up inside him!

"I didn't want to kill you. You brought this upon yourself," Gu Chen replied truthfully.

"Talking won't do any good. I've lost. If you want to kill or maim me, go ahead," Hu Han gave up struggling.

Even a sneak attack couldn't succeed. Struggling at the brink of death was simply inviting more suffering.

"Compared to your shameless sneak attack, you're making me look upon you more favorably now," Gu Chen said with an expression that was hard to read. "Do you want to live?"

Hu Han couldn't help but be stunned, then sneered, "I've resigned myself to my fate. There's no need for you to humiliate me further!"

"I'm asking you if you want to live?" Gu Chen repeated.

Does he really intend to let me go?

But that doesn't make sense!

Hu Han looked at Gu Chen suspiciously, but couldn't discern anything from his expression. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded and said, "A good death is better than a life of disgrace. Of course, I want to live."

"Alright, I can spare your life, but..."

Gu Chen stopped halfway through his sentence.

This made Hu Han anxious, and he hurriedly asked, "But what?"

Gu Chen smiled mysteriously. "But just letting you leave like this would be too easy for you. What do you think?"

At this, Hu Han's expression changed constantly, as if he had guessed Gu Chen's intention.

Gu Chen didn't rush, just looked at him calmly.

"You win!"

After a long while, Hu Han sighed deeply, then got up and walked over to Zhang Tieshou.

"Hu... Hu Lao!"

Zhang Tieshou was also shrewd. When Hu Han approached, he desperately tried to move aside.

However, he was seriously injured, and any further movement would be in vain.

"Don't blame me. I had no choice!" Hu Han said quietly, then slapped Zhang Tieshou's head.

"Puff!"

Zhang Tieshou spurted blood like mist, his eyes staring at him in death, then slowly fell to one side.

Hu Han turned his head and glanced at Gu Chen.

Gu Chen showed no change in expression, just calmly watching him.

"Alive! Alive!"

Hu Han withdrew his gaze, murmuring to himself, then walked toward Li Chen.

"Ah!"

Li Chen knew exactly what he was planning. He screamed in horror, scrambled to his feet, and ran wildly in one direction.

But no matter how fast he ran, he couldn't outrun a Grandmaster's methods.

Hu Han picked up a small stone, flicked it with his fingers, and "crack," it hit Li Chen's head.

A stream of blood gushed out.

Li Chen stood still, his body slightly swaying, as if trying to turn around. But the next moment, he slammed heavily into the ground with a loud crash, stirring up a cloud of dust, and never made a sound again.

"Not enough!"

Gu Chen's reminder came from behind.

Hu Han's figure paused, suddenly remembering Gu Chen's earlier words about wanting him to die without a whole corpse.
