Liu Zuifeng said, "This is a matter between him and . I won’t allow Danyang Sect to interfere, and I hope, Uncle, you won’t interfere either."
Mo Jingzhou took a small step back and said nothing.
Liu Zuifeng slowly turned to look at Gu Zhan and spoke, "Gu Zhan, you killed my clansn—more than half of the Liu Family died by your hand. I’ve co today not to argue right or wrong, only to settle things with you. Dare you fight to the death, let fate decide? Please!"
At this mont,
everyone’s gaze fell upon Gu Zhan.
All of them were Martial World people, all eager to see masters battle,
one was the rising, peerless God of Slaughter, Gu Zhan; the other was a fad figure for years—the Hidden Mountain Swordsman, Liu Zuifeng, known as ’Drunken Spring Breeze with a Single Sword’.
Both were recognized masters in the Martial World,
each a prominent figure of their generation,
and this duel to the death instantly set everyone’s anticipation ablaze.
Liu Zuifeng had already issued his challenge,
and everyone held their breath for Gu Zhan’s response.
In the crowd,
Gu Zhan lazily lifted his eyelids and slowly spoke: "Liu Zuifeng, all right. You want a life-or-death fight with , are you sure?"
"I’m sure." Liu Zuifeng replied, "Gu Zhan, between you and , only one can live. A fight to the death is the best way."
Gu Zhan let out a soft laugh and said, "You’re quite the scher, but perhaps you missed one thing."
Liu Zuifeng asked, puzzled, "What am I missing?"
Gu Zhan fixed his gaze on Liu Zuifeng, and said slowly, "You’re a traitor of Beidou Bang. What right do you have to issue a life-or-death challenge to ?"
Liu Zuifeng deliberated briefly, then said, "Is the fad God of Slaughter, Gu Zhan, just a coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong? Not even daring to accept a challenge?"
Gu Zhan waved a dismissive hand and said, "Liu Zuifeng, don’t try that goading trick on , it’s useless. You sche well—challenge ? On what ground? When the Liu Family lost, you want a duel; but before your family lost, how co no one wanted a duel?
Isn’t that laughable? I, Gu Zhan, fought my way from Pingyang Prefecture to Canglan City, just to have a duel with you alone? Now, I have n, I have blades—why would I duel a traitor like you? Why don’t you go to the Imperial Palace and challenge the Emperor to a duel?"
As his words faded,
Gu Zhan suddenly raised his hand and shouted, "Embroidered Uniform Guard, where are you? The remnant traitor of the Liu Family, Liu Zuifeng, who colluded with Demon Dao, has appeared—take him down, his life or death ans nothing!"
"Kill!"
A thundering war cry exploded like a bolt of lightning. Hooves thundered, dozens of thunders cracked as a circle of siege ford in an instant.
Gu Zhan leapt onto his horse, Horizontal Saber pointing at the group within, and declared, "Gentlen, Beidou Bang is purging traitors—please step aside!"
The Supre Grandmasters in the center were left a bit stunned,
for by usual reasoning,
shouldn’t Gu Zhan have readily accepted the challenge?
People of the Martial World crave nothing but fa and profit—how many have died on this road?
Now, with Liu Zuifeng publicly challenging,
if Gu Zhan dodged the fight, it would cost his reputation, not to ntion the dishonor of this group assault.
Yet, the Supre Grandmasters said nothing. Each quietly withdrew—after all, they were elders, and this was after all Beidou Bang’s internal affair.
Only the Danyang Sect mbers were left awkwardly caught in the middle.
"Gentlen of Danyang Sect, are you truly set on interfering in Beidou Bang’s internal affairs?" Gu Zhan said coldly.
Song Lingjun and his party looked grim,
with Liu Zuifeng’s identity, Mo Jingzhou and the rest withdrew, but should they step in, Beidou Bang would surely not stand idle.
Liu Zuifeng waved his hand, saying, "Sect Leader Song, you all leave. Gu Zhan is nothing but a coward—no matter how many n he has, with a sword in my hand, what is there to fear?"
Song Lingjun and his party imdiately retreated.
Liu Zuifeng raised his longsword and shouted, "Gu Zhan, if you have a shred of manly courage, then fight one on one—"
Gu Zhan sneered and gestured:
"Kill!"
