The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1748 - 1747: Fake

Isn't Tang Rao pushing it too far? He's crushed the last bit of self-esteem left in the Eldest Son of the Yan Family, what more does he want?"Hmph, no matter what, I'm still at the late stage of a High God. My strength might be nothing in front of you, but it's too early to say anything. We'll see who gets humiliated in the end, you or me."

Although the Eldest Son of the Yan Family doesn't have a great Divine Artifact, his strength is real. Every step of his advancement has been achieved through hard work. How long has Tang Rao been at the late stage of a High God? He is confident that besides Tang Rao being a bit sharp-tongued, he really has no other advantage over him.

"Then let's see if it's you or me?"

A sudden burst of golden light appeared behind Tang Rao, the Taotie Hand exuding a fierce aura, slowly revealing the true form of the Taotie behind him. As the true form appeared, the air seemed to carry a faint sound of a dragon's roar.

He slightly parted his legs, and with powerful legs, he propelled himself off the ground. His body moved faster than a blink, and before the Eldest Son of the Yan Family could react, Tang Rao was already right in front of him.

"See, even though I've only just reached the late stage of a High God, my foundation is solid, and I'm fast. I'm not inferior to you guys who have been at the late stage for many years."

So what if he's at the late stage of a High God? Strength is just a classification of abilities. Even at the late stage of a High God, there can be differences in strength. At this stage, Tang Rao happens to be slightly stronger than the veteran late-stage High God Eldest Son of the Yan Family.

"Don't overestimate yourself. Just because you're a newly-promoted late-stage High God doesn't mean you can arrogantly say such things to me. Know your limits."

The Eldest Son of the Yan Family seemed like a different person. He swiftly turned and suddenly appeared behind Tang Rao, his speed rivaling, if not exceeding, Tang Rao's earlier speed.

"Extreme Pursuit!"

The Eldest Son of the Yan Family had learned to play these sneaky tactics? Tang Rao never expected him to have such explosive speed.

By the time he reacted again, he felt a stinging sensation on his side. Looking at his arm, a piece of flesh hung there, barely attached by some skin.

Did the Eldest Son of the Yan Family seriously injure Tang Rao?

Duo Lei stood on the sidelines, dumbfounded. Had he made a wrong move in this game?

"Hahahahahaha, I've got Fei He!"

The Eldest Son of the Yan Family, having just injured Tang Rao, reached out again, this time with even greater strength. If he succeeded in grabbing, Tang Rao's arm would be finished.

Thankfully, Tang Rao reacted quickly. In a split second, he took out the Divine Stone, silently recited a spell, and managed to save one of his arms from the Eldest Son of the Yan Family's grasp.

After Tang Rao disappeared, he suddenly reappeared not far from the Eldest Son of the Yan Family and engaged him again.

"What you had in your hand just now, was it the Divine Stone?"

The Eldest Son of the Yan Family's eyes were filled with greed, a look Tang Rao was all too familiar with. Simply put, he had coveted this Divine Stone for a long time. He never knew where the Divine Stone was, but now that he did, how could he not be envious?

"Yeah, are you eyeing my Divine Stone? Unfortunately, these Divine Stones recognize their owner. Before I reached the late stage of a High God, if you wanted the stone unowned, all you'd have to do is think of how to kill me. Now that I've reached the late stage of a High God, even if you killed me, you wouldn't become this stone's master."

Tang Rao spoke honestly, having just discovered this truth himself not long ago.

When he realized he would be the stone's master for the rest of his life, the sense of satisfaction and vanity it fulfilled in him was indescribable.

"I don't buy your words. Whether the stone recognizes me is something I'll only know once I kill you!"

If the Eldest Son of the Yan Family could seriously injure Tang Rao once, he could do it again. He had never believed in the loyalty of the Divine Stone as Tang Rao described it.

"Oh, getting impatient, are we?"

Tang Rao no longer relied on his martial arts skills, instead holding the Divine Stone and maneuvering around the Eldest Son of the Yan Family.

With the Divine Stone, as long as Tang Rao maintained control, his speed could increase several times over.

All he needed to do were some sneak attacks, and Tang Rao could drive the Eldest Son of the Yan Family crazy.

The Eldest Son of the Yan Family felt dizzy. By the time he comprehended what was happening, he had already been struck by numerous punches.

All these punches came from Tang Rao, who was anything but polite.

Within the span of a stick of incense, the Eldest Son of the Yan Family had declared defeat.

"Hey, didn't you say you were going to kill me? What's the delay?"

Tang Rao stood proudly, after all, he wasn't on the losing side.

As the victor, a bit of ridicule towards the Eldest Son of the Yan Family seemed warranted.

"I... I'm going to kill you!"

The Eldest Son of the Yan Family could hardly articulate his words. After Tang Rao's lesson, he even began to doubt his ability to speak.

"Kill me? I've given you so many chances, and you haven't done it yet. It proves that killing me might not be as simple as saying it."

Tang Rao's sharp tongue was infuriating. The Eldest Son of the Yan Family had underestimated Tang Rao's power and should not have provoked him. Unfortunately, the challenge was already underway.

But if he continued to fight Tang Rao, how much chance would he have of winning?

"Hey, my time is precious. Do you want to keep playing, or should we get this over with?"

Tang Rao's patience was waning, and at this point, he had no intention of letting the tiger return to the mountain. Letting the Eldest Son of the Yan Family go now would be like planting a ticking time bomb by Tang Rao's side. Why should he do that?

"Tang Rao, this guy is extremely insidious and cunning. Don't let him off, or when he grows stronger, you'll be the one who suffers!"

Once the Eldest Son of the Yan Family gained power, the first person he would seek revenge on was Tang Rao. Right now, both sides were evenly matched, but if the Eldest Son of the Yan Family used his hatred to improve himself, and one day exceeded Tang Rao, it could spell disaster for him.

Tang Rao understood this well and indeed, just as Duo Lei thought, he was cautious.

"Duo Lei, how can you be so sly? Don't you know how well I've treated you? Is this how you betray a friend? You've really disappointed me!"

Did the Eldest Son of the Yan Family still consider Duo Lei a friend? Sadly, Duo Lei had long since regarded him as good as dead.

"Thanks, but we're not friends. We just used each other for our own purposes."
