Hardly had he finished asking his question when the young man turned his head. Under the moonlight, He Gaoming could clearly see his face.
It was a bit small with a round outline and a pointed chin. It was a pretty face or it could be said to be one with feminine features!
However, although he had such a delicate face and smile, there was a trace of intimidating aura between his eyebrows. Not only did he lack any trace of femininity, but he also had a piercing look which made people feel aggressive.
“What John Doe? Who is John Doe?”
He Gaoming asked in confusion, “Who the hell are you? What are you talking about?”
“Are you trying to deny it?”
The young man looked at He Gaoming and suddenly grinned. He took a step forward and said, “I checked the surveillance record of the auction in Chic Cloud Pavilion. You were sitting next to John Doe during the auction, weren’t you?”
He Gaoming was shocked.
Although John Doe’s true appearance had been exposed, it was not something that ordinary people could manage, to be able to check the surveillance records of Chic Cloud Pavilion.
Even though he was frightened, He Gaoming studied the man in front of him.
In addition to his delicate features, he was wearing a black suit, similar to what a monk practicing martial arts would wear. He did not look like a good person, but more like an ancient assassin or killer.
However, this kind of clothing could be seen anywhere in this era, so it was still normal. There were people wearing clothes weirder than this.
“Call John Doe. Ask him to come over.”
The young man said to He Gaoming.
“I don’t know who John Doe is and I don’t know what you are talking about.”
He Gaoming was on the alert. He could see that the young man was obviously looking for trouble and his aura was very menacing. He was definitely not a good person.
After saying that, He Gaoming immediately took a step back and was about to leave.
“If John Doe does not come, you can’t leave.”
The young man reached out and blocked He Gaoming.
“Humph!”
He Gaoming snorted.
This person was simply too arrogant. He was a third-class Martial Superior now. Although he could feel from his aura that he was no match for this young man, he had just made a breakthrough. The power of a third-class Martial Superior was surging in his body. He planned to have a good fight.
He Gaoming snorted and he did not restrain himself now. With a wave of his right hand, he raised the seventh-class sword in his hand. It directly swept across the opponent’s arm.
“Humph.”
As if he did not expect that He Gaoming would dare to resist, the young man sneered disdainfully. Before He Gaoming’s long sword could reach him, he clenched his fists.
With a move of his arm, a wave of powerful internal Qi erupted from his fist and directly struck He Gaoming’s chest.
He Gaoming’s expression changed greatly.
Originally, he was eager to try his best to fight with the man and thoroughly engaged the full internal Qi in his body. But he did not anticipate that the opponent was so fast that he could not respond in time.
“Bang!”
A loud thump sounded.
In a situation where he had no time to dodge, He Gaoming was punched by the young man in front of him and slammed into the big tree behind him.
“Damn it, what the hell is that?”
He was terrified.
He Gaoming felt miserable. He knew that if he continued to fight, there would be problems.
He had nothing valuable on him. And the young man was not here to rob him. It was better to directly admit defeat. Anyway, no one was there to witness it.
With that thought in mind,
“You’re really something.”
Rubbing his chest, He Gaoming stood up, grimaced in pain and said, “I’m no match for you. I don’t want to fight with you anymore. I really don’t know who is this John Doe you’re talking about. If you want to find him, you can find him yourself!”
“If I can find him, will I look for you too?”
The young man looked at He Gaoming and the smile on his face gradually disappeared. Instead, he looked a little impatient. He said to He Gaoming, “If you don’t know who John Doe is, give me your phone. If you don’t have John Doe’s phone number, I will let you go right now.”
After that, he was about to reach out for He Gaoming’s cell phone.
But at this moment,
He Gaoming took the initiative to put his hand into his pocket. As he touched the phone, he said, “My phone was shattered by you just now.”
As he spoke, he suddenly pressed hard and shattered the phone into pieces, with all his strength.
“You’re courting death!”
The young man was furious.
Staring at He Gaoming, he raised his eyebrows.
He charged at He Gaoming with a gloomy look.
“Hmm?”
He Gaoming was shocked and immediately wielded his sword to block his move.
Unfortunately, his strength was much weaker than the young man’s. As soon as he waved his sword, his right hand, which was holding the sword, was hit by the man’s fist. While his whole arm was thrown backward, the young man clenched his left fist and fiercely punched He Gaoming in the chest.
Strangely enough, this punch did not send He Gaoming flying. After this punch, the young man’s right hand, which had just been withdrawn, struck again.
“Pa pa pa…”
He punched He Gaoming seven or eight times in a row.
When the last punch fell, He Gaoming was eventually sent flying.
“Puff!”
After being thrown into the air, He Gaoming felt a cold feeling at the back of his head. He could not help spitting out a mouthful of blood in an instant.
He had serious internal injuries!
As he fell to the ground, there was still blood gushing out of his wide-open mouth.
This young man seemed to have held back some strength and did not cause any fatal injuries to He Gaoming. But if this kind of internal injury was not taken care of in a timely manner, he would die in a matter of days!
“Tell me, how to contact John Doe!”
The young man came over, squatted down, reached out to pinch He Gaoming’s chin and asked coldly.
“Bah, I don’t know.”
He Gaoming spat out blood to the side and suddenly burst into laughter. The sight of blood gushing from his mouth would make people looking at him shudder.
“Do you want to die?”
The young man was furious.
He raised his fist and was about to smash He Gaoming’s head, but he did not do it. Instead, he gritted his teeth and grabbed He Gaoming’s seventh-class sword.
“I believe that you should remember how to contact John Doe.”
The young man threatened him with his long sword.
Actually, He Gaoming had Fang Qiu’s phone number in his memory. He even remembered Fang Qiu’s account on the Wulin online forum, not to mention his phone number,
But would he tell him?
“It looks like a precious sword.”
Looking at the sword in his hand, the young man sneered and said, “If you don’t tell me, don’t even think about taking this sword back.”
“I won’t tell you anything!”
He Gaoming was also irritated. He hated it immensely when someone threatened him. The more he threatened him, the more adamant he became in not revealing the information!
“Do you think I’m joking with you?”
The young man was furious.
“Crack!”
With a slight hand movement, the young man directly broke He Gaoming’s seventh-class long sword.
He Gaoming was stunned when he saw that.
“My eight million! Eight million!! You’re going to pay me eight million!!!”
He Gaoming roared furiously.
He still remembered that the minimum final auction price of a seventh-class sword was eight million yuan and this sword had been specially made for him by Fang Qiu. It helped him break through to a third-class Martial Superior when he got it, but it was broken in less than a day. How could he not be angry?
However, so what if he was angry?
He could not defeat the young man. All he could do was simply yell at him.
“Humph!”
After breaking the sword, the young man was not bothered about He Gaoming’s angry roar at all. Instead, he grabbed He Gaoming’s ankle, and with a poker face, dragged him away.
Soon, in the middle of the night, a post suddenly appeared on the Wulin forum, which attracted the attention of many people.
“Fight! John Doe, I am challenging you. You can’t refuse this challenge!”
“Your friend surnamed He is in my hands. If you want him back safely, just accept the challenge. I’ll wait for you at the top of Yangshan Mountain of Jiangjing in three days. If you don’t turn up, I can’t guarantee that your friend will still be alive!”
From the title to the content of the post, it revealed a strong fighting intent.
At the end of the post, there was also a photo of He Gaoming curled up on the ground, spitting out a lot of blood and looking really miserable.
As soon as the post appeared, it immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
“Another one challenging John Doe?”
“What the f*ck, there’s another person who wants to challenge John Doe.”
“This move is a bit inhuman. If you want to challenge someone, why do you have to harm his friend? Isn’t that a little shameless?”
“It doesn’t seem that he wants to challenge John Doe at all. He’s simply an enemy of John Doe!”
Everyone was talking about it.
There were also many people who began to investigate into the identity of the one who posted it.
When they saw the ID of the person who posted it, everyone was astonished.
“Yu Yuanhao!”
“Shadowless Hand, Yu Yuanhao?”
“It’s him?”
“I was thinking who would be bold enough to challenge John Doe? If it’s this guy, it’s possible!”
“Such a dirty trick can only be pulled off by Yu Yuanhao.”
The martial art practitioners on the forum began to discuss this animatedly.
Yu Yuanhao, nicknamed “Shadowless Hand”, was a super expert who ranked sixth on the Wulin Genius List.
This person had always thought highly of himself. Since the appearance of the Wulin Genius List, he had always felt that his strength should not be ranked sixth. He should at least be among the top three.
“Why did this guy appear?”
“I remember last time, didn’t he say that he wanted to challenge Chen Yunzhu, who was ranked fifth?”
“Does he need to challenge Chen Yunzhu? I remember that John Doe defeated him in only three moves, didn’t he?”
“Anyway, Yu Yuanhao’s ambition is huge. It is said that he has not made any moves recently because he has been in seclusion. The purpose of his seclusion is to challenge Chen Yunzhu. It seems that he heard that Chen Yunzhu was defeated by John Doe after he came out of seclusion, so he changed the target from Chen Yunzhu to John Doe, right?”
“I did not expect that this guy would really do that. He said that he was going to challenge him after coming out of seclusion. He really did.”
“Chen Yunzhu has been defeated by John Doe. Yu Yuanhao actually wants to challenge John Doe. He is really confident, isn’t he?”
“Most importantly, he can just do it if he wants to challenge John Doe. But he attacked John Doe’s friend in order to coerce John Doe to accept his challenge. This is so shameless.”
“It’s more than shameless. This is simply a taboo in Wulin. If this guy dares to do this, he will definitely provoke John Doe.”
“I’m also irritated, not to mention John Doe.”
“It’s just a challenge, but he makes it seem as if there’s a grudge between them. In my opinion, something serious is going to happen in Wulin!”
