Han Lang finished speaking, controlling nine golden needles to circle behind him, while looking at Zhao Wu.
"We were brothers, and I won't take advantage of you. I'll remove three golden needles, and we'll fight as equals at the late Golden Core stage. Let fate decide life and death!"
Zhao Wu was somewhat moved when Han Lang voluntarily removed three golden needles.
After all, he knew he was no match for Han Lang.
Han Lang doing this was merely out of remembrance for their brotherhood.
He immediately replied with indignation.
"Good! If I die, your Zhao family's nine generations can be hunted down by me. If you die, Zhao Wu guarantees to protect all your Han family, including relatives and friends, for life! Let's have a fair fight, Han Lang!"
Just as the two were squaring off, ready for a great battle, Ma Long suddenly rushed forward from the side.
"No! Zhao Wu, the young master has treated you well. If you dare to confront him today, I, Ma Long, will not permit it. If you want to fight, fight me! I've seen through it all; your Zhao family are all ungrateful wretches. Even if you defeat the young master, I, Ma Long, will never let any of your Zhao family go!"
Ma Long's words left Zhao Wu speechless.
"Ma Long, you..."
Although Zhao Wu was angry, he also knew that this entire matter was the Zhao family's fault from beginning to end.
Ma Long's actions were merely him being loyal and protecting his master.
Han Lang had a trace of affection for him, but everyone, including himself, Tang Geng, Tang Qin, and even Liu Xiaoxiao, knew this.
Ma Long could be kind to anyone, but he would never be kind to those who opposed Han Lang.
In his heart, in his eyes, there was no one else.
Only Han Lang.
In comparison, Tang Qin, Tang Geng, and himself, like Ma Long, had accepted Han Lang's kindness but had not supported him to the same extent.
In such a situation, how heartbroken Han Lang must be!
Thinking about it this way, weren't they all the ungrateful wretches Ma Long spoke of?
Perhaps, they couldn't even compare to Tang Haoran, who truly supported him wholeheartedly.
Shame washed over them!
After hearing these words, Tang Qin gritted her teeth and made a final decision.
"I'm sorry, Dad. I was indeed overthinking things before. Han Lang has treated us exceptionally well; I, Tang Qin, am not an ungrateful wretch. Han Lang, leave Zhao Wu to Ma Long and me! You personally go and kill Zhao Wei. Your father's revenge should be taken by your own hands!"
As Tang Qin finished speaking, she attacked Zhao Wu directly.
This time, she held nothing back.
Every move was a killing blow, showing her determination to not rest until Zhao Wu was dead.
Seeing this, Tang Geng and the others trembled.
However, on the entire field, only Ma Long and Tang Haoran showed satisfied smiles.
"Good! Good! Qin'er, you are my good daughter, Tang Haoran! In life, righteousness comes first. Brother Han is unwilling to make a move against Zhao Wu, so you take care of this matter!"
Hearing this, Tang Qin's attacks became even more ferocious.
Although her strength was inferior to Zhao Wu's, with the full power of a Heaven-tier cultivation technique, she was able to fight him back and forth.
Ma Long also laughed heartily.
"Good! The young master doesn't need too many friends around him! Tang Qin, with you and me, it's enough! Today, even if we are enemies of the world, we will swear to defend the young master's dignity!"
With that, he also moved, cooperating with Tang Qin to attack Zhao Wu with all their might.
Han Lang was touched by the words of the two, as well as Tang Haoran.
He had focused on others, and in the end, only Ma Long and Tang Qin unhesitatingly stood by his side.
In such a situation, how could he continue to be indecisive?
Thus, he turned to look at Song Heguo.
"Commander Song, let's begin as well! From now on, I, Han Lang, will not hold back. Even if I have to stand against the entire world, I will defend every friend who has been truly sincere to me!"
Song Heguo's old face turned red at Han Lang's words.
Although Han Lang's contributions to the military were for the country, as the highest leader of the special forces, he had also received immense favor from Han Lang.
After much thought, he finally waved his hand.
"Fine, fine! Since things have come to this, this old bone of mine is too lazy to interfere anymore! Han Lang, if you have thought through the consequences you will face in the future, I, this old man, will no longer stop you. However, I can promise you that I will do my utmost to protect Ma Long and Tang Qin!"
Han Lang nodded, deeply moved by these words.
"Han Kang, after this matter, inform Sister Wang Fang to resume cooperation with the special forces and the Heavenly Doctors Sect. However, the head of the special forces can only be Deputy Officer Dan!"
Han Kang nodded.
"Don't worry! Leave this to me!"
Just as Han Lang was about to control his golden needles to kill all the Zhao family members present, a flying sword suddenly shot out.
As the sword passed, the defenseless Zhao family members were decapitated.
"I'm sorry, Han Lang! I realized it too late. I'll handle these matters."
Han Lang looked at Tang Geng and smiled.
Knowing the consequences that would follow, Tang Geng still decided to stand with him, and that friendship was worth it.
Just as everyone else stopped intervening in Han Lang's feud with the Zhao family, suddenly, from the back of the crowd, Luo Jiaying, who had somehow gotten out of the car, ran down.
She pointed towards the hotel entrance and shouted.
"Brother Han Lang, catch Zhao Wei, don't let him escape!"
Hearing the reminder, Han Lang finally realized that Zhao Wei had already stumbled into the hotel.
"Trying to run? Impossible!"
Han Lang immediately leaped forward.
Ma Long and Tang Qin also stopped their attack on Zhao Wu and followed in pursuit.
Tang Geng, Huang Yuhua, and Song Heguo also rose into the air without hesitation, preparing to assist in intercepting Zhao Wei.
But as they took flight, they saw Zhao Wei's figure speeding away in another direction.
Tang Geng was shocked and quickly shouted.
"Zhao Wei has slipped out the back door! Han Lang, hurry and chase!"
With that, he followed Song Heguo and the others towards the direction Zhao Wei had fled without hesitation.
Tang Qin and Ma Long also turned without hesitation and followed closely behind.
Han Lang instructed Han Kang and Tang Haoran to protect Luo Jiaying well, and then he also sped off in pursuit.
Zhao Wu was stunned.
He didn't understand why Zhao Wei would abandon him and flee.
After all, all the Zhao family members who attended the wedding had now been completely killed by Han Lang.
If it were just the two brothers left, there would be no hope of survival.
Sacrificing himself for righteousness at this moment would be a better outcome for him.
Even if he escaped, where could he go?
His heart filled with even more hatred.
"Damn it! You, the culprit of our family's destruction, are escaping first at this moment. I want to see how long you think you can evade!"
With that, he followed closely behind Han Lang and chased after him.
