Chapter 156: Former Brothers Betray Each Other

Ma Hongjun has never known what it means to be low-key since he was a child. He is full of arrogance, just like his Evil Fire Phoenix martial spirit.

He has offended quite a few people since he was a child, many of whom were not very strong, but he was always lucky enough to escape unscathed and has never been seriously injured.

However, ever since the end of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition more than four years ago, Ma Hongjun suddenly found that his luck had deteriorated a lot, and he often hit the wall and got injured, like this time.

"A shabby place?"

The young man was so angry that he laughed.

When he was young, he often heard people say that this was a shabby place, but they had no confidence to refute it at the time.

But after Chu Zhao walked out of here, their lives became better and better, and their sense of happiness has increased dramatically in the past two years. There are few villages as wealthy as theirs in the entire continent.

After all, not all villages are qualified to be called Holy Emperor Village.

There are actually people who say that this is a shabby place. They are so short-sighted.

"No matter how high your soul power is or how noble your status is, when you come to our Holy Emperor Village, you must abide by our rules."

After the leading young man said this, he quickly stepped back several steps, leaving Ma Hongjun's attack range, and took a defensive posture.

Ma Hongjun's attack was launched just when he was withdrawing.

"So he is a Five Ring Soul King, no wonder he is so arrogant."

Ma Hongjun's true strength was revealed with his attack, five standard soul rings, two yellow, two purple and one black.

Such strength is naturally good, but it depends on who you compare it with.

The soul power of the natives of Shenghuang Village is naturally not strong, and most of them are great soul masters.

But nowadays, the Holy Emperor Village is not short of powerful foreign residents and tourists.

Some of them volunteered to help Shenghuang Village capture Ma Hongjun.

"It's just a small soul king. I can handle it. No need to trouble you."

A six-ring Soul Emperor flew out and met Ma Hongjun first.

"Just because you are a Soul Emperor, you think you can steal the limelight from others! You wish!"

Even though there was a Soul Emperor who was sure to win, the others still came forward.

After all, once they deal with Ma Hongjun, they can add a chapter to their life resume, that they once helped Emperor Chu Zhao solve problems and catch criminals.

With so many people around, Ma Hongjun was caught in no time.

"Apologize, apologize to our Holy Emperor."

The young man in charge of the Green Order said in a deep voice.

Seeing that Ma Hongjun was stiff-necked and unwilling to apologize, Tang San tried to persuade him.

"Fatty, you should apologize. You shouldn't have said such things in the first place."

Ma Hongjun raised his head and looked towards Tang San, with confusion in his eyes.

"I'm sorry, I just said the wrong thing."

But he apologized in the end. After all, Tang San was right, when you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.

Unless he wants to suffer physical pain or even lose his life.

However, these are all Ma Hongjun's own thoughts. For example, he apologized now, but he did not think the apology was useful. He did not think that the other party would let him go just because of an apology after making such a fuss.

"Be careful with your words next time. Also, you are no longer welcome here, please leave as soon as possible. If you don't leave today, don't blame us for forcibly expelling you."

After the young man said this, he left with his companions.

Ma Hongjun didn't react at all. How could the other party let him go so easily?

"After all this fuss, even Soul Emperors were dispatched, and all you want is an apology?"

“It’s a bit outrageous…”

"As for it?"

Ma Hongjun couldn't help but let out a low cry. He didn't understand this behavior despite his injuries.

"It's quite good."

Tang San solved Ma Hongjun's doubts.

"The people here all respect Chu Zhao very much. They don't allow anyone to say anything bad about Chu Zhao. They sing praises of Chu Zhao's kindness several times a day. And most of the people who come here also respect Chu Zhao very much."

It was just that Ma Hongjun didn't take Tang San's explanation to heart at all, and just responded casually:

"Is it really that serious? How can she be so worthy?"

The one she was referring to was naturally Chu Zhao; Tang San could still tell that.

"If you knew how the people here lived more than a decade ago and how they live now, I think you would understand their feelings."

"More than ten years ago, when she and I were still living here, every household here could hardly have enough to eat, let alone meat. We could only eat meat a few times a year. It's not that they didn't work hard, but there were a series of reasons such as heavy taxes, few fields, and poor yields."

"But now, every household here is very wealthy, with a lot of surplus food and spare money. These changes were brought about by Chu Zhao. Because this is where she lived as a child, she completed the development plan first. According to the villagers of Shenghuang Village, Chu Zhao's goal is to let the people of the entire continent live this kind of life."

Tang San explained it very carefully, because he couldn't help but put himself into the situation.

Sometimes he couldn't help but wonder that if he was just an ordinary villager in Shenghuang Village, he would probably respect Chu Zhao very much and regard him as his whole belief in life.

Unfortunately……

Ma Hongjun didn't listen carefully at all. He was still angry that Tang San didn't speak for him just now.

"Tang San, what happened to you just now? I was clearly speaking for you and complaining for you. But you didn't remember my kindness at all and didn't stand on my side. Instead, you stood on their side. Are you still my good brother?"

When it came to blaming Tang San, he did it easily.

Tang San, who was being accused, was stunned and said that he was really innocent.

"But in that situation, an apology would have been in our best interest!"

Ma Hongjun was defeated by his opponent, and he was no longer the energetic young Soul Emperor Tang San.

He is just an ordinary blacksmith.

But when facing Tang San, Ma Hongjun's brain suddenly started to work better.

He pointed at Tang San and began to accuse him.

"You are talking nonsense. Even if you have no soul power, you still have hidden weapons! Your hidden weapons are so powerful, but you haven't used any of them. You just don't want to help me and think I've caused you trouble!"

After being accused by him, Tang San, who was not in a good mood to begin with, could not bear it anymore and did not want to endure it anymore because he was accidentally injured by him before.

"You have the nerve to say that I don't need hidden weapons to help you. Look at my hands. They are injured. Can't you see? This is the injury caused by the Phoenix Fire you just used. You almost killed me. I have no soul power left."

Tang San accused Ma Hongjun.

Ma Hongjun, who was also angry, thought that Tang San had become a disabled person and could no longer provide him with help, so he was not polite to him and even touched his sore spot.

The former brothers have officially become enemies.
