Tang Hao sighed, his voice filled with pity.
After all, if Mo Wuya could win Angie's heart, the martial arts circle in China would have secured another powerful source of support. Furthermore, Angle's secret would belong to China too.
When that happened, China's martial arts circle would definitely advance to the next level.
However, when Sword Saint heard what Tang Hao said, he shook his head and laughed. “You always dream big. Firstly, we don't know if Wuya could win Angie's heart. Secondly, even if he succeeded, do you think that the Jones family will agree to the marriage? You should stop talking about such unrealistic events in the future.”
“Can't I just fantasize about it?” complained Tang Hao. “I'm just thinkingon behalf of China. If the eldest daughter of the Jones family marries into China, we'd not only gain a beautiful lady, but we can also have her secret all for ourselves.”
Still, Sword Saint shook his head with a smile. “You can dream on! If we want to win over the eldest daughter of the Jones family, China must first
produce a genius who is on par with Chu Qitian. Although Wuya is quite talented, he keeps getting severely injured when training outside for the past two years. It's clear that Wuya's abilities are still limited, so he can't be of much use at present. He still needs time to train. Do you think that she will choose Wuya over the Third Young Master of the Chu family?”
The wedding was still ongoing. On the other hand, Sword Saint and Tang Hao were discussing who else in China was capable enough to be worthy of Angie's hand-in-marriage and win her heart.
“What about Ye Fan? He is probably worthy enough for this princess, right? He's the only person who managed to become a supreme grandmaster in his twenties.”
Suddenly, Tang Hao blurted Ye Fan's name.
Sword Saint's expression hardened instantly.
It was evident that he did not have a good impression of Ye Fan.
“Although Ye Fan is extraordinarily talented, his moral values are twisted. He is a traitor to his nation! His values are not compatible with his high status. It's just a matter of time before he falls from the pedestal.
Furthermore, Ye Fan was born into a lowly family. With his bad practices, how is he different from the gangsters prowling on the streets? If you compare him to the Chu family's Third Young Master, you'd be overestimating him. Perhaps, Ye Fan is stronger than him in terms of martial arts. However, don't forget that the Third Young Master is only in his early twenties this year. After a few years, when he reaches Ye Fan's age, his powers will definitely be on par with Ye Fan's.”
After a slight pause, he continued, “Furthermore, even if he isn't as powerful as Ye Fan, he can mobilize all the experts in the Chu family with a single command. When that happens, Ye Fan will have no choice but to run away. In terms of family background and authority, he is far inferior to the Third Young Master. Just by these criteria alone, an immoral and unrighteous man like Ye Fan will never catch the eye of the Jones family's heiress, unless she's blind!”
Sword Saint's tone was very cold, with a hint of fury underlying his vicious words.
Initially, he was already doubtful about Ye Fan's morals and abilities.
However, due to the War God's and the others' constant defense of Ye Fan, he had no choice but to close a blind eye to Ye Fan's murderous and atrocious acts.
During the battle at Yunwu Lake, Ye Fan first killed five imperial commissioners. Then, he injured Mo Gucheng, the Permanent Hall Master of the War God Castle.
Mo Gucheng's injuries were so severe that he still could not get up.
Such actions had already crossed Sword Saint's bottom line.
If Ye Fan remained, the disadvantages to China would far outweigh the advantages.
Hence, considering China's martial arts circle and the nation's interests, Sword Saint had decided that he would start his plan to eliminate Ye Fan after the wedding. He would mobilize all of the martial artists in the nation to kill Ye Fan—the nation's traitor!
Anyway, this would only happen in the future.
After talking about Ye Fan, Sword Saint changed the topic of conversation abruptly and said, “If anyone in China can conquer Angie's heart, it'll be none other than Chu Tianfan, the fallen genius! It's a pity that the
heavens are jealous of prodigies. Before we can see what an exceptional talent like him truly looked like, he met his demise. It's a huge loss to the War God Castle and the martial arts circle in China.”
Upon the mention of Chu Tianfan, Tang Hao and Sword Saint exchanged a look of sorrow.
After all, he was a sore spot in their hearts.
