The face of the Green Lantern Ghost King instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Good!" After all, the Green Lantern Ghost King is also the lord of a domain, and Gu Shengyin had pushed him to this point. If he still didn’t accept, it was likely that the ghost soldiers following him would be dissatisfied.
"Ghost King of Lanling, don’t regret it!" He looked at Gu Shengyin with a chilling expression.
"She will definitely not regret it, but whether you will regret it is another question." A cold male voice answered him.
Hearing Feng Lin’s voice, Green Lantern Ghost King felt a surge of unease in his heart.
The thing he feared most was Feng Lin interfering in this matter.
A single phoenix wasn’t frightening, but the entire Phoenix Divine Clan behind it was sothing the Green Lantern Ghost King couldn’t afford to provoke.
Green Lantern Ghost King looked at Feng Lin and said in a deep voice, "This is a personal matter between and the Ghost King of Lanling. It’s best if you, Phoenix Your Excellency, refrain from ddling."
Feng Lin didn’t even want to give him a glance: "The matters of Lanling are my matters."
Listening to such words and hearing Feng Lin call Lanling so intimately, a premonition of trouble surged in Green Lantern Ghost King’s heart.
He looked up at the close proximity between Gu Shengyin and Feng Lin, then at Gu Shengyin, who remained silent with lowered eyes after Feng Lin spoke, and an absurd speculation arose in his mind.
Soon, Feng Lin’s words confird his suspicion.
"If I can’t even stand up for the woman I like when she’s being bullied right in front of , am I still a man?"
Green Lantern Ghost King’s eyes were wide as he looked at the two people opposite him, seemingly unable to process the aning within.
The Ghost King of Lanling did not refute such words, and neither did the ghosts and goblins of Lanling Domain show much surprise. What did this indicate?
It indicated that the relationship between this phoenix and the Ghost King of Lanling was indeed extraordinary!
If he had known earlier, if he had known about such a relationship between the Ghost King of Lanling and the Phoenix Clan, he definitely wouldn’t have co so rashly.
Unlike the Green Lantern Ghost King’s tangled thoughts, the Yellow Springs Ghost King, after his initial shock, was only left with a deep sense of relief.
Thank goodness he held back at the critical mont.
The Phoenix Clan is extrely loyal. It’s said that once they choose a partner, they will see only that person for their whole life.
The Green Lantern Ghost King’s actions today, in that phoenix’s eyes, were akin to seizing his partner, and such a thing is intolerable by anyone!
This ti, the Green Lantern Ghost King is likely to have kicked an iron plate.
While the Yellow Springs Ghost King was gloating, Feng Lin had already stepped forward.
"Let’s duel."
He casually said sothing that made the Green Lantern Ghost King’s face change dramatically.
A duel is generally not undertaken unless for a mortal enmity.
Unlike an arranged battle, a duel can be enforced.
Under the approval of the Heavenly Dao, both sides engage in a one-on-one fight to the death.
The winning side gets to deal with the losing side at their discretion, life and death notwithstanding, and will not bear any karmic consequences.
Of course, the Heavenly Dao would not easily recognize a duel unless the reason receives its approval.
Feng Lin wasn’t worried about this. Dueling for the sake of a beloved woman was a common enough reason, and he had the moral high ground too.
But this wasn’t his main confidence.
The Phoenix Clan is a natural Divine Beast, born with the fate of the world, viewed by the Heavenly Dao as its own children.
They exist almost as if with cheat codes.
Indeed, Feng Lin’s thoughts were not mistaken.
Almost at the sa ti he proposed the duel oath, there was the sound of thunder in the sky.
The Heavenly Dao agreed to his oath.
