"Yes! Don't you know? Oh, I see, you probably took that incident as a joke I caused, so it's not surprising you wouldn't know!" Wu Lang snorted and said, "But I'm not like you. My failure was just an accident, and now, I've devised a meticulous plan. Once implemented, it's guaranteed to make that Yang Feilong's death a certainty!"
"Just an accident?" Hearing Wu Lang's words, Wu Hua almost laughed in anger. "If it were before, I might have really believed it was an accident. Although I don't know the details between you, I can be sure now that it wasn't an accident."
"How could it not be an accident? I chose all the raw jade stones! I never expected that a few raw jade stones I picked at random would yield such valuable jade!" Wu Lang was immediately displeased upon hearing this and retorted.
Hearing Wu Lang's words, Wu Hua said angrily, "If you continue to be so self-important, you'll be played to death by him sooner or later!"
"Nonsense, I may not be as talented as you, big brother, but I'm not bad either. And my plan is a chain of interconnected steps, guaranteed to make him unable to take care of himself!" Wu Lang said proudly.
He was very unconvinced by his elder brother. In his heart, the only thing he lacked was martial talent. But it wasn't his fault for not having martial talent; after all, it was innate. He hadn't inherited it, so what could he do?
When he was young, he had worked very hard. But after cultivating for many years, apart from being stronger than ordinary people, he hadn't even reached the Void Martial realm. Later, in high school, he became obsessed with women and gave up.
Seeing Wu Lang's indifferent attitude, Wu Hua took a deep breath and said gravely, "I'm telling you, this Yang Feilong is not simple."
"I don't see what's not simple about him!" Wu Lang was dismissive.
Seeing his brother like this, Wu Hua knew that if he didn't explain things clearly, his brother would never change his mind. Although he didn't know his brother's plan, he knew it would definitely fail because he underestimated his opponent. The meticulous plan would be full of loopholes.
"Look at the injury on my face. I used a special medicine that Father got from abroad." Wu Hua pointed to his still swollen cheek and said earnestly.
"You got slapped in the face? Tsk tsk, even with the special medicine Father got from abroad, it hasn't returned to normal. This injury is quite serious!" Wu Lang blinked and exclaimed.
Listening to his brother's sarcastic remarks, Wu Hua was so angry he wanted to slap him. But then he thought better of it. After all, this was his own brother. He also knew why his brother harbored so much resentment towards him, but now was not the time to dwell on that. The brothers now had a common enemy, so they should speak frankly and discuss it properly.
"It was Yang Feilong who did this!" Wu Hua revealed his own shame.
"Yang Feilong did it? You're at the late stage of True Martial realm, and he still managed to slap your face?" Wu Lang stared at his brother in disbelief. "My dear brother, what game are you playing?"
"..." Hearing Wu Lang's words, Wu Hua almost spat blood from anger. He gritted his teeth and said, "I couldn't beat him, that's why he hit me!"
"Couldn't beat him?" Hearing Wu Hua's explanation, Wu Lang's surprise turned into shock. "You, you're at the late stage of True Martial realm, and you still couldn't beat him? Are you, are you kidding me?"
"Do I need to joke about this?" Wu Hua said irritably. "Am I trying to smear myself? Am I sick or something?"
Then, he recounted the events of the day in detail. Since he had admitted to being slapped in the face, there was nothing else he couldn't talk about. The main thing was what happened today. Many people had witnessed it, and many of them were of high status and position, as those who could go there were not ordinary people.
Hearing Wu Hua's account, both Wu Lang and Li Huiyan, who was beside them, were greatly shocked and remained silent for a long time.
"Brother, this Yang Feilong is so insidious and cunning?" After a long time, the shock on Wu Lang's face did not diminish at all. He trembled and said, "Before, I was a bit puzzled by some things, but I didn't investigate further. Now that I think about it carefully, many things are chilling upon reflection. I, I seem to have underestimated this Yang Feilong!"
"What things?" Wu Hua asked gravely and earnestly. "Tell me in detail."
"Before, I asked Long San..." Then Wu Lang recounted in meticulous detail how he had set a trap for Li Yufei through Long San and notified Li Yufei's brother.
"The reason is very simple, Long San had suffered losses at the hands of Yang Feilong, and the trap was broken!" Wu Hua pointed out incisively.
"It should be so! I wondered why Long San was so timid! Now, thinking back to when we were appraising jade in the jade shop, Yang Feilong was always very calm, even staring at that extremely valuable raw stone that many people believed would definitely fail! So, I mocked him, saying I'd help him pick it, and he agreed. I thought it was my luck then, but in reality, if I hadn't picked those few stones, he might have picked them himself!" Wu Lang gasped. Before, he didn't know Yang Feilong was so powerful. Now that he knew, and then inferred the process, the more he thought about it, the more he was filled with dread. "This guy is so insidious and cunning!"
"If he weren't so insidious and cunning, could he have swindled over a hundred million from us brothers?" Wu Hua gritted his teeth.
Thinking about it now, he was indeed careless. The other party dared to agree to a wager with him, clearly having full confidence. He had dug a pit and jumped into it himself!
On the surface, the other party wasn't proactive, but in reality, weren't all his actions provoking him? He thought he was on the third floor, while the other party was on the first, but who would have thought that the other party was on the fifth floor calculating him, and he hadn't noticed it at all, thinking his provocation was perfect.
Judging by the outcome, he had been completely led by the nose by the other party!
Thinking of this, Wu Hua felt an urge to vomit blood. What is this called? The hunter who hunted geese all day was pecked in the eye by a goose!
"His cultivation is at least at the Profound Martial realm. Thinking about it now, the plan I devised earlier, which I considered perfect, is full of loopholes!" Wu Lang's shame deepened as he thought about his own plan again. The other party had played his own brother like a fiddle, yet he had treated the other party as an ordinary person.
If his brother hadn't told him all this today, his plan, once implemented, would have likely led to a huge downfall, and he might have even lost his life.
"Brother, what should we do next? Are we just going to let it go?" Wu Lang looked at his brother Wu Hua, his eyes filled with resentment. His hatred for Yang Feilong had not diminished with the passage of time; on the contrary, it had grown more intense.
However, at this moment, his heart was a little bewildered, because Yang Feilong's strength far exceeded his expectations!
"How can we just let this matter go? Let me think carefully. We brothers will join forces to devise a meticulous and comprehensive plan. Once we decide to act, we must ensure it's foolproof, strike decisively, and utterly destroy Yang Feilong! Because for such a person, if we give him a chance to retaliate, even if we don't die, we will pay a heavy price!" Wu Hua said solemnly.
"I know!" Wu Lang nodded heavily.
Now, he regarded Yang Feilong as an unprecedented formidable enemy. His previous underestimation had completely vanished, because he wasn't stupid. He knew that underestimating an opponent would only lead to his own downfall.
