Chapter 470 - 470 Heinous Killing Intent
To everyone’s surprise, Zhan Wushuang did not stay where he was. He actually retreated a distance of nearly a hundred feet!
After being forced to retreat nearly a hundred feet, the result of the bet was obvious.
“Good, good… Good!” The applause sounded, and Zhan Wushuang was clapping continuously, staring at Gu Xi who was not far away with his cold eyes. He gritted his teeth and said with a smile, “You are indeed the man who was able to break out of the tight encirclement in the competition! Your strength is indeed far beyond my expectations.”
!!
“The bet… It seems that I lost.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present gradually came to their senses, and turned their heads to look at Gu Xi. Their expressions lookedl ike they have seen a ghost.
With a cultivation realm of the intermediate Saint, he forcibly pushed back a genuine Great Saint by a distance of nearly a hundred feet. This feat was really incredible!
“That kid… actually did it.” Looking at the figure in mid-air, Tang Conglin could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
On the side, Tong Shan was frowning. He shook his head and said, “Don’t be too happy. Even though this kid won the bet, it is still unknown if Zhan Wushuang will fulfill his end of the bargain. If he does not fulfill it, all this will be in vain.”
Hearing this, Tang Conglin nodded in disbelief and immediately said, “In front of so many people, that old man should also save face. If he reneges his promise in public, it will implicate more than just Zhan Wushuang alone. Even the entire Zhan Clan behind him will be ridiculed by the world!”
“Perhaps, but it is also because he wants to save face. Even if he can fulfill his bet today and no longer pursue the previous matter, there is no guarantee that he will not secretly send someone to trip up Gu Lan in the future. It is better to be careful from now on.” Tong Shan spoke in a deep voice, his analysis was clear and logical.
“No matter what, let’s pass this test first before thinking about the future.” Tang Conglin nodded, obviously agreeing with Tong Shan’s thoughts.
In mid-air, looking at Zhan Wushuang who voluntarily surrendered, Gu Xi’s face was still very calm. He did not seem very excited because he knew that with Zhan Wushuang’s temperament, this matter would definitely not be over so easily. Naturally, the play still needed to continue.
Gu Xi smirked and said, “In that case, according to the bet, Clan Master Zhan should not blame me for what I did before. If you agree, I will now take my leave.”
After leaving these words behind, Gu Xi turned around and wanted to take Little Nine and Zhan Hong out of here.
“Slow down.”
However, before they could take a few steps, Zhan Wushuang’s voice suddenly sounded, and they could not help but stop. At the same time, Gu Xi’s face gradually darkened. He quickly changed his expression and put on a smile. He turned to look at Zhan Wushuang and asked, “Does Clan Master Zhan have any other instructions?”
The two looked at each other. Zhan Wushuang smiled, raised his finger to Zhan Hong, and said, “According to the previous bet, I can let you go for what you did before, but I didn’t say that you can take my Zhan Clan members away. Hand over Zhan Hong. You two can leave at will, but if you take Zhan Hong, then don’t blame me for being impolite.”
As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately fell silent. At the same time, the atmosphere in the air seemed to have suddenly become extremely cold. The situation became extremely tense.
Tong Shan and Tang Conglin looked at each other, and they both saw the anger in each other’s eyes. However, in front of Zhan Wushuang, they did not speak out.
Zhan Wushuang’s move was obviously somewhat unreasonable, but his request did not violate their bet.
At this moment, everyone’s eyes were on Gu Xi. They wanted to see how Gu Xi would deal with Zhan Wushuang’s request. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that after losing to a junior in front of so many people, Zhan Wushuang was like a powder keg that might explode at any moment. As long as Gu Xi is a little careless, this powder keg might blow him into pieces!
“This guy wasn’t part of the bet, so I’m not obliged to hand him over to you so easily. After all, I went through all the trouble to capture him.”
Gu Xi shook his head and rejected Zhan Wushuang’s request without the slightest hesitation. And with his short sentence, the entire atmosphere became dead silent. Everyone did not even dare to breathe loudly.
“Oh? Then what else do you want?” Zhan Wushuang narrowed his eyes slightly, and an imperceptible cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes.
In front of so many people, Gu Xi repeatedly made him lose face. At this moment, he wished he could slap Gu Xi to death.
On the other hand, Gu Xi grinned, stretched out a finger, and shook it. He said, “I won’t make things difficult for you. As long as you hand over one heaven-grade spirit array. Alternatively, a spirit skill of the same level will do.”
“Is this kid crazy?!”
“A heaven-grade spirit skill or spirit array? He really dares to say it!”
“Unreasonable! Simply unreasonable!”
As Gu Xi’s words fell, the crowd suddenly burst into chatter, and the gazes that looked at Gu Xi became full of contempt.
Whether it was a heaven-grade spirit skill, spirit array, or a spirit weapon, these things were all priceless. Even if Zhan Wushuang had them, they were definitely treasures. It was impossible for him to easily hand them over to an outsider, even if it was to exchange for the life of a Zhan Clan disciple!
Even if this person was Zhan Hong, it was absolutely not worth it. Absolutely impossible!
“It seems that we don’t need to continue talking.”
“You are simply… courting death!” Zhan Wushuang slowly, and the anger that had been hidden in his heart for a long time finally broke out uncontrollably. His body trembled, and after a twist of the space around him, his figure disappeared.
Gu Xi’s expression froze. He had been prepared for a long time, and immediately swayed his vast spiritual consciousness, weaving it into an airtight net and spreading it in all directions, trying to capture Zhan Wushuang’s figure. However, the result surprised him very much.
There was no trace of Zhan Wushuang! It’s as if he had evaporated from the world!
Searching to no avail, Gu Xi had a bad feeling and immediately turned around to grab Little Nine’s hand. He shouted loudly and wanted to retreat into the distance.
He knew that Zhan Wushuang was completely motivated to kill at this time. As long as he stayed here for one more second, he would be one step closer to death!
“Careful!” At this moment, Little Nine’s stern voice pulled Gu Xi back from his thoughts to reality.
Following Little Nine’s line of sight, Gu Xi saw that the void in front of him suddenly began to distort. A fierce palm attack emerged from it, and the target was Gu Xi’s chest!
At this moment, Gu Xi felt a strong danger from this ordinary-looking palm, and even this feeling of danger was even stronger than the one he felt when he fought the outer realm demonic race!
Without time to think, Gu Xi subconsciously wanted to stop the palm attack, but it was too late when he reacted. The moment the two sides were about to come into contact, a snow-white figure suddenly appeared in front of him and took the blow firmly.
Boom–
The palm fell on the chest of the snow-white figure, and she let out a dull cry.
“Little Nine!” Gu Xi’s eyes widened, and he stretched out his hand to pull Little Nine back. However, before the two of them could touch each other, a strong ripple of spiritual power spread out, and Gu Xi was sent flying back uncontrollably. In the blink of an eye, he flew nearly a thousand feet.
On the other hand, Little Nine had been firmly embedded in the depths of the ground by Zhan Wushuang’s palm strike. No one knew whether she was dead or alive.
“You Old Dog, you are f*cking courting death!”
There was a roar, and at that moment, there was an overwhelming killing intent!
