Chapter 939: Chapter 939: The Wager in Hand


"Kid, don’t worry, I guarantee I won’t beat you to death. I’ll leave you with a breath of life."


As Zhu Fei and Gu Lang walked onto the Duel Platform, Gu Lang licked his lips and spoke with a sinister expression.


Zhu Fei raised his eyebrows sharply, a faint smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he sneered, "Well, then I really want to see if you have that ability."


Zhu Fei truly didn’t expect that as soon as Gu Lang came up, he started threatening him.


Originally, Zhu Fei was considering whether to show some mercy to the other party.


But now, since the other party is so rude and seems intent on crippling him, there was nothing left to hold back.


"Kid, you’re seeking death!"


Upon hearing Zhu Fei’s words, Gu Lang was instantly enraged, and a murderous intent inexplicably tinged his gaze towards Zhu Fei.


Zhu Fei, however, didn’t care at all. Instead, he turned his eyes to Li Han and Luo Shanhe below and said, "Gentlemen, time’s about right. Shall we start?"


"Hmm, then let’s begin." Li Han nodded.


Luo Shanhe glanced at Gu Lang, coldly saying, "Don’t hold back because of me. Whatever happens, I’ll take full responsibility."


"Understood!"


Upon hearing Luo Shanhe’s words, Gu Lang’s spirit shook vigorously.


Without the slightest hesitation, the moment his words fell, a blood-colored long blade had already flown out from above his head, cutting fiercely toward Zhu Fei with an extremely dense Blood Evil Energy!


Zhu Fei’s gaze suddenly sharpened. Wow, such a thick Blood Evil Energy. It seems that at least ten thousand people have died under this bloody long blade.


With a flash of thought, Zhu Fei didn’t draw any weapon. He simply opened his five fingers toward the descending blood-colored long blade.


Great Five Elements Sword Energy!


"Sss sss sss!"


In an instant, five sword energies of different colors shot out abruptly from Zhu Fei’s fingers like mountain peaks.


As soon as Gu Lang’s blood-colored long blade came into contact with the five sword energy mountain peaks Zhu Fei unleashed, its dense blood energy was instantly worn down and dissipated!


"Pfft!"


Before Gu Lang could react, he suddenly felt a numbness in his right arm, followed by a gush of blood. Gu Lang’s right arm had already been severed at the shoulder by Zhu Fei’s sword energy mountain peak!


"Ah!"


Gu Lang screamed in agony.


He clutched his severed right arm, cold sweat streaming down his forehead, and a sudden fear appeared in his gaze toward Zhu Fei.


"I told you earlier, if you want to be rude to me, you’d better have the ability."


As he spoke, Zhu Fei’s figure flickered continuously, and a giant palm instantly formed above Gu Lang’s head.


Heavenly Vault Hand!


"Boom boom boom!"


A thunderous roar seemed to echo in Gu Lang’s ears, making him wobble as he could no longer stand firm.


However, even so, Gu Lang still showed no intention of conceding defeat.


After the initial fear, it seemed Zhu Fei’s display ignited a ferocity in Gu Lang, and his eyes suddenly turned crimson.


Rotating red blade spirals gathered instantly in front of him, finally forming a blade light that pierced the skies. It slashed diagonally toward Zhu Fei’s descending Heavenly Vault Hand!


"Sss sss sss!"


A piercing whistle resonated in the air.


Just as Gu Lang’s red blade spiral was about to cut into Zhu Fei’s Heavenly Vault Hand, the Heavenly Vault Hand suddenly clenched into a fist, crashing down with a "boom boom boom" again!


With just a "puff" sound, the strike infused with all of Gu Lang’s Immortal Essence was instantly obliterated under Zhu Fei’s fist!


"How... How is this possible?"


Gu Lang was utterly shocked, but before he could recover, the Heavenly Vault Hand changed direction, turning from a fist back into a palm and swiped horizontally towards Gu Lang!


Seeing this, Gu Lang’s pupils shrank sharply.


His body burst into rapid flickers, trying to evade the pursuing Heavenly Vault Hand. His personal domain also immediately expanded outward.


But the result was frightening to Gu Lang. As soon as he deployed his Immortal domain, he heard a "crack" sound by his ear, and his Immortal domain was instantly shattered!


"No!"


At last, fear gripped Gu Lang’s heart.


He wanted to concede, but it was too late, Zhu Fei obviously wouldn’t give him that chance.


Then with a "boom," just as Gu Lang’s body hung briefly in the air, the Heavenly Vault Hand slammed down on him mercilessly!


"Puff! Crack!"


Gu Lang’s entire body flew backward, and while still in the air, a series of crisp "clack clack" sounds rang out from his body.


It was the sound of all his bones being crushed!


"Cough cough... cough cough cough..."


When Gu Lang hit the ground, he was already a bloody mess, continuously coughing up essence blood from his mouth.


Zhu Fei at this point didn’t look at Gu Lang again. Instead, he turned his gaze to Luo Shanhe and smiled lightly:


"Luo, well? This duel should be considered my victory, right? Do you intend to send someone else up? If so, please hurry."


A complete slap in the face, an utterly naked slap in the face!


Zhu Fei knew well that after this incident, there was irreparable enmity between himself and Luo Shanhe.


He believed even if he did nothing now, Luo Shanhe would harbor no goodwill towards him.


Since that’s the case, Zhu Fei simply revealed the truth without pretenses.


Indeed, when Luo Shanhe heard Zhu Fei’s words, his face instantly turned extremely grim.


He stared at Zhu Fei for quite a while before nodding sharply, saying:


"Alright, very well! Kid, you really have guts. I hope you’ll always be like this. We are leaving!"


Then, Luo Shanhe didn’t even look again at the fallen Gu Lang on the Duel Platform, but turned and left with his entourage.


Seeing this, Zhu Fei didn’t care at all. He chuckled and walked off the stage, taking the Fiery Sun Stone and other items from the wager table, then turned to Li Han and said:


"Li, if there’s nothing else, shall we leave as well?"


"Oh oh."


Li Han seemed to regain his composure, nodding instinctively.


Zhu Fei’s performance was simply beyond his expectations.


One must know, Zhu Fei had faced Gu Lang, a Cultivator with Late Stage of Heavenly Immortal cultivation.


Even with his Early-stage Profound Immortal power, defeating Gu Lang so easily would not be a simple task in ordinary times, right?


But now...


Li Han looked deeply at Zhu Fei and then said, "Alright, let’s go."


Having said that, Li Han and his group didn’t look at Gu Lang on the Duel Platform either and left the place together with Zhu Fei.
