Chapter 817 War God Castle''s Contempt
"He''s probably just a young punk. I heard Mr Chu killed Mochizuki Kawa''s foster son and provoked
him. But Mr Chu was so scared that he went into hiding for half a month. He didn''t even take his wife
with him and didn''t turn up all this time. No one heard a word from him."
"What? Are you serious? Why is he such a loser? How can Mr Chu run off after pissing off someone
like him without even taking his wife? How can a man like this be the King of Jiangdong? That''s insane!
He is just a coward and aplete disgrace to our martial arts circles! I really pity the girl he married.
She really met the wrong man!"
Everywhere in the country, people gossiped nonstop.
The news almost spread like a rampage throughout the martial arts circle.
Some of them shook their heads and sighed on hearing it, while others cursed him.
Some of them felt ashamed of him, while others didn''t care.
People just reacted differently to the same news.
However, other than scolding Ye Fan, some of them even helped speak up for him.
"Sigh! Don''t say such things. Mr Chu must be an extraordinary man for being able to reign as King of
Jiangdong in the martial arts circle. Maybe he didn''t show up because he was held up and didn''t make
it back in time,” someone spected.
However, someone sitting next to him instantly scoffed.
"Wang, I won''t argue with you about whether Mr Chu is a hero or coward. We will all find out in ten
days at Dongchang Lake. Mochizuki Kawa has already challenged him to a duel at theke. If he
doesn''t turn up in ten days, his wife will die under Mochizuki Kawa''s sword!"
The people around them instantly fell silent.
"Mochizuki Kawa is trying to corner Mr Chu!" sighed everyone.
In the martial arts circle, such duels were a matter of life and death.
So Mochizuki Kawa was threatening Mr Chu to a battle by holding his wife hostage!
Mochizuki Kawa was the Sword God of Japan. Even if he wasn''t the number one fighter in Japan, he
was still one of the top five within the country.
Back in the day, he fought the God of War at the Yellow River.
He was so powerful that even grandmasters might not be able to surpass him.
So everyone felt that even if Mr Chu turned up in ten days, he was bound to perish!
But if he didn''te, his reputation would be destroyed, his wife would be killed, and he would have to
suffer a bad name for the rest of his life.
Should he choose to live or die?
That was the question!
As the news kept spreading, Lu Tian-He and Fang Shao-Hong drove without stopping to Mount
Yanjing''s peak when news broke out about Mochizuki Kawa challenging Ye Fan to a duel.
A grand building stood atop its peak like an animal lying prone on the mountain which reached the
clouds!
It was the center of the Chinese martial arts circle, War God Castle.Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Fang Shao-Hong and Lu Tian-He hurried in after they got off the car and told the guards who they
were.
Inside the hall, an imposing man sat upright.
The moment they saw the man, Fang Shao-Hong and Lu Tian-He and bowed and greeted him, "We
apologize for visiting the King of Fighters at such ate hour!"
"Just get to business already. Why did youe to War God Castle?" asked the man sternly.
Lu Tian-He nodded and said, "Sir, we came to talk to you about Mochizuki Kawa, Sword God of Japan.
30 years ago, Mochizuki Kawa caused chaos in China. It was thanks to the God of War that he left and
swore never to return. However, Mochizuki Kawa refused to change his ways and came back to
ughter the people of Jiangdong. Also, he took a woman hostage to force her husband to fight. We
can''t let him have his way. We came here in the hope that War God Castle can get involved and help
drive him out of the country and save Jiangdong."
Lu Tian-He and Fang Shao-Hong looked at him imploringly with respect.
After hearing their request, the man picked up his tea and took a sip before he smiled and replied, "I''ve
heard about it too. But fights like this aremon in the martial arts circles. Since they are ready to
resolve their vendetta using martial arts, then we should leave them to it. It is inappropriate for War
God Castle to interfere with such minor matters. Also, you ought to know that we represent the entire
country. The moment we interfere, their personal feuds will be an international problem. Then it
will be very hard to resolve."
The man spoke with no intention of getting in between their feud.
After all, War God Castle existed to stabilize things and represent the country when it came to
international martial arts matters.
Unless it was a massacre for no reason, the War God Castle wouldn''t get involved.
After all, fights happened all the time in the martial arts circle. If War God Castle were to interfere each
time, it would be impossible to manage. It would be wiser to leave them be and help encourage them to
be stronger.
"But the man involved is a young Chinese talent. If we don''t stop the fight, we might end up losing the
future God of War!" persuaded Lu Tian-He anxiously
The manughed gently. Then he said with a hint of sarcasm, "The genius you are referring to is the
so-called Mr Chu, right? I have seen his aplishments, and the most impressive thing he has done
is to kill the head disciple of Sword Shrine. If that makes him a genius, then all these other people I
have encountered would be deemed geniuses too. In the end, how many of them can actually make it
into the grandmaster ranking? Most of them end up failing. The next God of War? That''s pure
nonsense. If it was that easy to be the God of War, then Ye Qing-Tian wouldn''t have remained
peerless all these years."
The man shook his head as he spoke before he waved his hand. "Enough. Go back. He''s just a
nobody and not important enough for War God Castle to get involved."
"But he might die..." persuaded Lu Tian-He since he felt bad about losing someone so talented.
The King of Fighters'' expression instantly sank and sounded angrier.
"It''s survival of the fittest! People have to walk through fire and the dead to be strong fighters to
begin with. If you do not understand this simple philosophy, why are you learning martial arts?
Upheavals will help him improve. If he is truly a genius, he should defeat Mochizuki Kawa just like the
God of War and prove himself. Then War God Castle will spare no expense and groom him. Or else,
he is just an ignorant man. What right does he have to ask for our help?"
