Chapter 101

Dangon frowned at Oman as if he had eaten spoiled food.
“My father wants me to become…… gazoo?”
“Yes.”
“Hahaha.”
Dangon laughed weakly and shook his head.
“You can’t be serious. You can’t even look at the bracket and say that?”
Looking at Dangon’s sagging shoulders, Bu Eun-sul took a long gulp of her drink and said.
“Let me ask you something: How does Tang Ling’s martial arts compare to Tang Bi’s?”
“Big brother is weak, as you know. Even if you used all your strength, you wouldn’t be able to handle this body, let alone Tang Bi.”
“I see.”
Bu Eun-sul grinned.
Dangon felt both relieved and bad at the same time when he saw that smile.
“What’s so funny.”
“The way I see it, you’ve grown up with so much love, you don’t feel it.”
“Love? Are you drunk?”
Bu Eun-sul put down her glass and said.
“Tang Bi will never win over Tang Ling.”
“What do you mean, Tang Bi can’t beat Big Brother?”
“And Tang Ling will kill Tang Bi on the pretext of a non-competition, probably.”
“Big brother pays the bills? Hahaha…….”
Dangon gulped down the liquor in his glass with a bark of laughter.
“That’s the most ridiculous joke I’ve ever heard in my life.”
Looking straight into Bu Eun-sul’s clear eyes, Tang Gong shook his head in disbelief.
“Big brother, you’ve been weak since childhood, your lungs are bad, and you rarely practice martial arts, only studying. How can you hope to defeat Tang Bi?”
“Have you ever observed with your own eyes that you do not cultivate the martial arts?”
Dangon shook his head with a wry smile.
“Well…… you’re always in your study, so you never know.”
“The party spirit is strong, stronger than you or Tang Bi.”
Tangon looked at Bu Eun-sul’s confident eyes and felt something unnerving stab him in the back of the head.
“You don’t mean to tell me you’ve been cheating people all this time?”
“Yes.”
Dangon was speechless for a moment.
Bu Eun-sul’s skills were already at an extraordinary level. He thought she might be able to see something that he didn’t.
“Why? Why would big brother do that?”
Barely awake, Dangon asks, and Bu Eun-sul replies, “I’m sorry.
“He who is brilliant is also ambitious.”
“…….”
“Men of his ilk always hide their true colors. Until it serves their purpose.”
A bouillon that healed the corpses of longtime guests.
During that long time, he had told Miss Bu Zhan about the men of the world, their greed and schemes.
And those stories gave her more knowledge and insight than an old man who had lived seventy lifetimes.
“Even if everything you say is true, there’s no reason…… to kill Tang Bi.”
Dangon shook his head, and Bu Eun-sul picked up her drink again.
“I didn’t say I’d only kill Tang Bi.”
He took a long drink from his glass and said, after a long silence, in a heavy voice.
“I will kill you too.”
“Why would…… big brother want to kill me?”
“He’s been living under a false pretense for so long; do you think he’ll be relieved to have such a man as his successor?”
Bu Eun-sul smiled a lively smile.
“He will try to eliminate any possible source of anxiety, otherwise all the years he has endured will be for naught.”
“Why does Big Brother feel we are a source of insecurity?”
Bu Eun-sul looked down at her empty glass.
“Tang Ling is literally frail. On the flip side, the two of you are more than qualified to become the next head of the family at any time… except for us, of course.”
Dangon let out a voice that sounded like a groan.
“Suppose you’re right about everything. But how can I? My father asked me to organize a non-competition, not a bloodbath.”
Bu Eun-sul smirked.
“You can’t stop an unfortunate accident. No one in the world can.”
Dangon was silent.
Despite his selfishness, he couldn’t quite match Bu Eun-Seol when it came to reading people and scheming.
“If you’re saying that, you must have a plan for that, right?”
“Sure.”
Dangon asked, pleased.
“Which way.”
Bu Eun-sul shook her head, her eyes flashing.
“But first, tell me what you know about the decree. Every detail.”
* * *
Inside the water tower, in the small smoke armor.
There, a topless Tang Bi was scribbling memorization and tension on wood chips set up everywhere.
Fury! Fury! Fury!
Every time I reached out, there was tension and poison to process.
Every time his hand brushed against the leather pouch at his waist, dozens of memorized shots were pounded into the wood chips.
“Hahahaha…… hahahaha!”
Tang Bi’s laughter echoed around the room as she stopped moving.
“I guess that’s why you’ve been labeling me a cowboy.”
Ever since Tang Fei’s declaration that he would choose his successor as a non-competitive winner, Tang Bi had been practicing martial arts with excitement.
No one can follow him without a fight. Bimu Dai believes that the party’s defeat is a ruse to get him elected.
“Whoa.”
He cleaned himself up and headed to his bedroom with a smile on his face.
And as I lay in bed feeling good,
“You’re more organized than I thought.”
Before you know it, there’s a masked figure in a nocturnal outfit sitting lazily at the table across from you.
“Who are you?”
For lack of a better word, he has a temper.
But for now, he was being quite cautious and not having seizures.
The masked man in front of you has secretly infiltrated the clinic, which is populated by the immediate cronies of the doctor.
And since he’d come all the way to the center of the city, to the Suyun Pavilion, and not anywhere else, Tang Bi knew he was a master she couldn’t match.
“There’s no point in provoking someone who’s higher up the ladder than me.
“Who am I?”
The masked person was speaking in a very harsh, low voice, as if they had intentionally changed their voice.
“I am the one who will save you.”
“Who will save me?”
Instead of answering, the masked man dropped one of the large gloves he carried on his back to the floor.
“What is that?”
“Something that will save your life.”
The masked man pushed the large glove in front of the bed where Tang Bi stood.
“Be sure to use it at the non-competition tomorrow.”
“This is…….”
Dangbi’s eyes widened in disbelief as she opened the cuffs.
“It was you.”
Tang Bi shoved the mittens back to the masked man’s feet with an annoyed expression.
“Hey, I don’t need this shit. Take it back.”
He looked at the masked man as if he didn’t understand.
“Even if your martial arts skills are high, this is a private hospital. Even the most accomplished adept can’t sneak in alone, so how did you get in……?”
“Because you can control your life.”
“What does that mean?”
The masked man held out his hand.
“Anyway, if you don’t use this, you die.”
The masked man spoke in a low, gruff voice.
“He’s been hiding his skills for a long time. Not only that, but he’s using the non-competition as an excuse to kill you outright.”
“He’s going to kill me? Why?”
“We need to get rid of him so he doesn’t threaten the cow’s position in the future.”
“Hahaha, you’re talking nonsense. Didn’t that idiot hear that you and I are on good terms?”
Tang Bi chuckled, and the masked man’s eyes flashed in the darkness.
In a low voice, he told Tang Bi a few things for a long time.
When all was said and done, the masked man spoke once more to Tang Bi.
“Believe it or not, it’s your choice.”
After listening for a while, Tang Bi finally furrowed her brow and shouted out.
“You’re going to keep talking bullshit until the end…….”
He shouted in annoyance, then shut up.
Before I knew it, the masked man had completely disappeared.
“…….”
Staring at the remaining mittens, Tang Bi spoke in a low voice.
“Don’t be ridiculous. You’re crazy.”
Snorting coldly, Tang Bi shoved the mittens into the corner of the room.

Finally, the tournament that would determine the singer of the Tang family began.
In the dance hall set up in the eastern ward of the inner court, all of the Tang family’s immediate blood relatives were gathered.
And where the stage was overlooked, a shade and chairs were set up so that the head of the household, Dangpae, could watch the performance in comfort.
“Then we shall now begin the non-dance contest to elect the Sovereign!”
Dang Sung, offstage, said lowly.
Since it was a martial arts competition between the four direct sons of the Tang Clan, the only visitors were the elders and direct blood relatives of the inner circle, except for the specially invited Bu Eunseol and Black Mark, and the atmosphere was solemn.
“First, Tang Ling and Tang Bi. You two, please come offstage.”
Tang Ling and Tang Bi, who were waiting to the left and right of Tang Xiu’s words, slowly made their way to the backstage.
“Brother.”
Tang Bi looked at the pale-complexioned, sickly-looking Tang Ling and said, “I’m sorry.
“What’s the point of having a martial arts competition between us anyway?”
“What do you mean?”
“You’re weak, and even the slightest vigorous movement makes your breathing uncomfortable, so why don’t you just abstain?”
Tang Bi clasped her hands together and spoke politely, causing Tang Ling to smile dryly.
“Is this what my body does every day? I don’t care.”
At that moment, Tang Sheng raised his hand and shouted in a loud voice.
“Then let’s get started!”
“Well then, brother. I’ll be gentle with you!”
As the match began, Tang Bi stretched out the pair with a short cadence.
He was not a Tang Jiavision Five Poisonous Serpents Master, but a Thousand Poisonless Heart Master.
Whirrrrrrrr!
Then, dozens of hand shadows curved around Tang Ling’s body.
Tang Bi had a fierce personality, but her talent for martial arts was quite remarkable.
The shadows of his fluttering hands were thick with substance, and his posture of sowing and reaping was flawless.
Self.
Unable to find a way to counterattack, Tang Ling unleashed a series of kung fu techniques to dodge the barrage of spirits.
However, Tang Bi cleverly changed the number of seconds, as if he had predicted all of Tang Ling’s moves.
Percussion.
Tang Ling gasped as he retreated, barely finding a way out.
“Ha. Ha.”
Thick beads of sweat were already forming on his forehead.
At first glance, Tang Bi’s attack looks like a blow designed to break Tang Ling’s body, but it’s actually a move designed to make him raise his hands in defeat.
“Do you want to give up?”
Tang Bi asked in a relaxed voice after taking a moment to calm her nerves.
“Let’s continue.”
“Brother. From now on, I’m going to vacuum fast, because I need to save my stamina for the next fight, you know what I mean?”
“Good strategy.”
When Tang Ling showed no sign of backing down, Tang Bi sighed.
“Brother. Don’t blame the heartlessness of my hands.”
He relied on and respected the tyrannical but always gentle party leader.
Otherwise, he would have already used the Five Serpent Fireball to defeat Tang Ling.
“Here we go!”
Pushing her skills to the limit, Dang Bi was once again unstoppable.
Even though he says so, Tang Bi does not unfold a vacuum or a five poisonous gongs, he simply unfolds the twelve heavenly poisonous hearts.
Pow!
The tidal wave of artifacts flowed like a ring, completely enveloping Tang Ling’s body.
Tang Ling quickly moved his body, but the Heavenly Poisonous Heart had already sealed off every possible escape route he could have taken.
“Big brother!”
Dangon, who was watching from a distance, shouted.
“Admit defeat!”
If he refuses to admit defeat, the dozens of zhangyings that Tang Bi poured out will beat on Tang Ling’s body like drums.
Flash!
Suddenly, a brilliant flash of light emanated from Tang Ling’s hand.
“Crack!”
At the same time, Tang Bi let out a pitiful scream and fell to the floor.
“Oh, my God.”
All the people in the hall widened their eyes.
In the center of the fallen Tang Bi’s chest, a sharp dagger had been embedded in his blood.
“One hand (one hand)… escape (take a life)?”
Dangsung, standing offstage, let out a gasp of surprise.
