The feud between Yan Kong and Tang Xian has been going on for many years.
Back then, the two of them also joined HL as ability users, but in the end they took completely different paths.
They were all seventeen or eighteen years old at that time, and like many new recruits in the imperial army, since they were ability users, they were naturally striving for the goal of being a Heavenly Guard.
At that time, a recruit named Luo Hu belonged to the same period as the two of them and served in the same branch. The three of them were similar in age and shared the same goals, so they quickly became friends.
These three tiger generals were born and died together, and they made a lot of achievements. In their early twenties, they were all promoted to the rank of school officers, and their reputations were the same.
But people are different after all, and maybe they shouldn't be friends from the beginning.
Luo Hu is Luo Hu's father. His family has served the emperor for generations. In fact, there are not many choices in his life. Working in the HL branch was just a necessary experience. A few years later, he was transferred by a piece of official paper. His marriage, future position, etc.... were all decided when he was born. things. Perhaps the years he served in HL with Yan and Tang were the freest days in his life.
Yan Kong is the simplest of the three. He is obsessed with force and has the most persistent and pure pursuit of improving abilities. Of course, he is also the strongest of the three. Therefore, when he was about thirty years old, he was already among the Heavenly Guards.
But no one noticed Tang Xian's inner change. Of his two close friends, one was promoted to a mysterious upper-level organization and heard less and less; the other has become a heavenly guard. It can be said that he has reached the pinnacle of warriors in the empire and is a highly respected minister. But Tang Xian, after years of hard work, still failed to reach the ferocious level.
He was spot on in his assessment. He is a mortal, and even if a mortal works hard, there will always be things he cannot do. He was always chasing Yan Kong from behind, but the opponent's back seemed to be getting further and further away.
In order to improve his ability as a capable person, Tang Xian resolutely gave up his promising career in the HL department. Originally, he was likely to become the head of the branch before the age of forty, and had the opportunity to concurrently serve as the local governor, but he took the initiative to apply for transfer to eas, abandoning all his past achievements. Start as a tester.
However, year after year passed, Tang Xian's progress was still not much faster than those with the same mediocre qualifications as him. In addition to being unwilling, he naturally also had hatred in his heart.
later. Then something happened that changed the fate of these three people for the rest of their lives.
The cause of this kind of thing is often because of a woman. In this case, it was Luo Hu's wife.
His wife is the daughter of a nobleman, but she is also a member of the resistance organization. She had already joined the Freedom Front when she was a student, when this information was discovered. Luo Hu is only two months old.
When the report was handed over to Luo Hu, he made a choice. He decided to give up everything before the matter was revealed. Flee Tiandu with his wife and children. And he can't do this alone, because he knows very well. At that time, I was already under surveillance, and those monitors. It is his subordinates.
Therefore, there are only two people left that Luo Hu can trust, and those are his only two friends.
Yan Kong was in Tiandu, and he agreed to Luo Hu's request without hesitation. After Tang Xian received the news, he quickly agreed to the request and came from the Middle East overnight.
These two people seemed to be very loyal, but Tang Xian betrayed both Luo Hu and Yan Kong on the way here.
The escape plan was finally exposed, and under the guidance of Tang Xian, they fell into tight siege.
There were ten heavenly guards in Tiandu, and Yan Kong was just one of them. Even if he risked his life, he could not defeat the four with his two fists, and was eventually subdued. Luo Hu witnessed his wife being killed and his children taken away. Although he was seriously injured, he continued to resist desperately and tried to snatch his son back.
At this time, in front of Yan Kong, Tang Xian, who had been watching the battle, stepped forward and gave his former brother the final blow.
After that day, Yan Kong was thrown into the Tidal Prison. He was the first and last Heavenly Guard to be sent to Hell Island. Luo Hu was raised by other members of the family. He was told that his parents were assassinated by the rebel organization. When he grew up, he continued the family business.
As for Tang Xian, thanks to this incident, he was promoted to a higher rank and made it all the way to where he is today. Of course, later he did break through the realm of ferocity and madness through hard work in practice, but that was many years later.
In the eyes of outsiders, he is a kind elder, a leader who dares to take on responsibilities, and a competent eas director. But in fact, behind Tang Xian's smile is a incomplete and twisted soul.
People often use sincere appearances and pious actions to hide a devilish heart.
Tang Xian has been a good person all his life. He has only done one thing that was sorry for others, and the victims were his two brothers. Maybe others will never understand why he did this. Only Tang Xian himself understands that he has never regretted even a moment about his hatred for Yan Kong and Luo Hu and what he has done.
… …
"Do you know anything about dogs?" Yan Kong threw away the test tube and spoke in a calm tone. It sounded like he was about to say something abusive, but that was not the case. "Some dogs will try to take care of their owners after they run out of fuel." , live for a while longer." Yan Kong smiled bitterly: "When I was young, I didn't understand how those animals did this. They seemed to have some way to survive in the world... After all these years, I don't know how I feel like I’ve become that kind of old dog that never dies.”
"Hmph... Are you saying that you are alive now to get revenge on me?" Tang Xian said: "Then, if you can't kill me, there is no point in your life." He said with a ferocious look on his face: "Just Let me personally send this old dog of yours on the road."
"The power that emerged reminds me of many things..." Yan Kong lowered his head and said thoughtfully. The Fighting God Wine had begun to take effect and his abilities were recovering: "Maybe I am already unfamiliar with fighting. Maybe I am not familiar with fighting at the moment. Your strength is not as strong as it was before you were thrown into prison." He looked up at Tang Xian: "Or maybe you are no longer what you used to be, and you have indeed become one of the few top masters in the world. But..." He He began to increase his energy, and a murderous aura that was not inferior to that of Tang Xian poured out: "I believe you still remember that I am Yan Kong!"
At this moment, in Tang Xian's eyes, the figure of the octogenarian Yan Kong became blurred. In his memory, the domineering, brave and invincible Tianwei seemed to appear in front of him again.
