“Where is the King of Fighters? Don't tell me that he is dead. I fear that a calamity has fallen on China if he is dead,” someone said worriedly.
The crowd gradually recovered from the shock and began to buzz with concerns and fears about the King of Fighters' condition.
Although the King of Fighters had ulterior motives against Ye Fan, he had protected China for many years. Furthermore, he had taught many students who became today's outstanding martial artists.
Moreover, numerous martial artists in China regarded the six Supremes of War God Castle as their pillars of support all these years.
They especially revered the three Permanent Hall Masters who presided over the affairs of War God Castle. People accorded them the same respect as their father and king.
Therefore, if Mo Gucheng, the King of Fighters, was dead. It would trigger nationwide mourning.
Since ancient times, the people had placed tremendous importance on mourning the loss of a
great warrior.
Furthermore, the King of Fighters had protected China for many years. Therefore, people would remember his contributions and be grateful to him.
If any of the six pillars of China fell, it was akin to the sky collapsing.
The crowd's concerns about the King of Fighters' condition awakened Tang Hao from his daze.
He was so engrossed in shock that he completely forgot about the King of Fighters.
He remembered that Ye Fan had sent Mo Gucheng crashing into the ground.
“Quick! Someone, come quickly and save the King of Fighters! Everyone, please come and help. We need to dig out the King of Fighters as soon as possible!” Tang Hao shouted urgently.
Ye Fan had attacked the King of Fighters violently and without mercy.
If he were an ordinary person, he would not survive.
However, Mo Gucheng was the supreme grandmaster and had a powerful life force. He would not die that easily.
If they could dig him out as soon as possible, he might have a chance to survive.
Soon, numerous people responded to Tang Hao's call for help.
There was a flurry of movements at Yunwu Lake. The martial artists were hiding during the battle. Now, they all rushed there and began digging.
They dug carefully as the grounds were close to Yunwu Lake. Furthermore, it was raining heavily and the sky was dark. Therefore, even though many people helped, they still dug through the whole night.
They finally dug out the severely injured King of Fighters from the mud at dawn.
“We found him! We have found him! It's the King of Fighters!” someone shouted.
“Quick, check whether he is still alive,” another person said urgently.
The scene instantly became chaotic as everyone rushed to gather around him.
Tang Hao also rushed to the King of Fighters and examined him grimly.
After a long while, he finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
Thank goodness he is still alive.
Tang Hao tried to channel some Internal Energy into the King of Fighters' body.
Soon, the King of Fighters' fingers began to tremble. He gradually opened his tired eyes underthe collective relieved gaze of the crowd.
He looked at Tang Hao. Their eyes met.
He opened his mouth as if to say something.
However, all Tang Hao could hear was a whimper.
The King of Fighters had grown so weak that he could not speak.
Tang Hao grabbed his hand and breathed a long sigh. “Please don't speak. All that matters is that you are still alive. That is more than enough. However, you have to control your temper from now on and learn to be calmer. If you had listened to me and not attacked him, you wouldn't have ended up like this. It was not just me who said this. Even War God said that Ye Fan was not an ordinary person. Look at what your temper got you. You were humiliated and nearly lost your life...”
Tang Hao's eyes grew red as he looked at his old friend clinging to life. His emotions were a mess at this moment. Furthermore, his words hinted at some resentment toward the King of Fighters.
After all, it was he who started the fight.
There was also a difficult question of how they should deal with Ye Fan in the future.
Should we charge him with attempting to harm the leader of War God Castle? Or should we let him go? Both options could cause a tremendous loss to War God Castle.
It was hard to tell whether what happened to the King of Fighters next was caused by hatred or shame.
