Chapter 864: I Will Defeat You Before the Whole World

The swearing voice echoed throughout the mountain gorge.

It drew everyone’s attention.

Evidently, this place had become the focal point of the current martial arts tournament.

Originally, the fight between brothers was already eye-catching enough, and now with such a bombshell revealed, it made people even more unwilling to look away.

They all wanted to see whether Zhao Yi would really hurt his own brother.

And previously, how would Liu Zixuan, who was vigorously courted by the Four Great Clans, Eight Great Powers, and scattered sects, meet his end!

As people’s gazes shifted, the owner of the swearing voice appeared.

It was none other than that rascal Huzi, who, along with Mo Chengfeng, strode to the front of the martial arts arena, both wearing expressions of anger toward Gu Huaqiu!

Gu Huaqiu frowned slightly, then laughed wildly: "Oh ho, all you brothers are gathered here, huh! Just in time for you to witness the spectacle of brotherly conflict. Pay close attention to how your eldest brother Liu Zixuan will be killed by Zhao Yi!"

"I doubt you’ll see the scene of us brothers fighting, but I imagine in a moment your expression will be particularly dramatic!"

Mo Chengfeng grinned teasingly and looked at Zhao Yi: "Old Zhao, you’re so inconsiderate, do you still see us as brothers or not!"

Zhao Yi was taken aback, his face full of guilt: "I don’t want this either, but Nannan was brought along with me all the way here; I really don’t want her and their mother to die just like that!"

"So you’re planning to kill Brother Xuan in a moment?"

Zhao Yi took a deep breath: "No, I will take my own life!"

Suddenly, Zhao Yi’s sleeve flicked, and a sharp knife appeared directly in his palm.

"This show is really getting more and more exciting!" Gu Huaqiu applauded at Zhao Yi’s action and then mocked: "But you’re just trying to escape; once you commit suicide, your wife and child will still die, and the Liu Zixuan you’re trying to protect will not escape death either!"

"Who said our sister-in-law would die!"

Huzi clapped his hands: "Old Gu, what are you pretending to be, if you don’t come out soon, this idiot Gu Huaqiu will brag to the heavens!!"

As he spoke, Gu Yu and Nannan slowly emerged from the crowd.

Gu Yu smiled mysteriously and said: "As the Great Immortal, I calculated that the later I come out, the uglier the expressions of Gu Huaqiu and the Four Great Clans and Eight Great Powers behind him will be. Isn’t this to watch their facial performances and deliberately maintain a mystery!"

"Nannan!"

"How can you be here!"

The first exclamation was from Zhao Yi, the second from Gu Huaqiu, both looking at Nannan beside Gu Yu.

Previously, Nannan had already been controlled by the Eight Great Powers; how could she appear here in one piece!

Their plan was flawless; it was impossible for someone to rescue this woman so quickly!

"She is Zhao Yi’s wife; her husband is here competing in martial arts, and the wife comes to cheer, what’s wrong with that?" Liu Zixuan turned playfully to look at Gu Huaqiu.

As Mo Chengfeng and Gu Yu said earlier, at this time, the expressions of Gu Huaqiu and the people from the Eight Great Powers and Four Great Clans behind him were changing wildly, from bewilderment to shock, and then to anger, each looking like an expression emperor.

The previous arrogance, wildness, and mockery disappeared completely, vanished into thin air!

Zhao Yi didn’t hesitate at all; he jumped off the martial arts arena and ran to Nannan.

Before he could speak, Nannan raised her hand and slapped Zhao Yi: "You are so stupid; it was originally a trap they set, and you, fool, still fell into it."

"I..."

Zhao Yi just wanted to explain when Gu Yu interrupted: "Alright, right after you left the martial arts arena yesterday and didn’t meet up with us, Brother Xuan guessed you were in trouble. We then did some simple investigation and found out you were targeted by those inhumane beasts."

"Now everything is fine; sister-in-law is safe and sound, and you no longer need to be threatened by anyone!" Mo Chengfeng echoed.

Zhao Yi’s eyes suddenly turned red; he turned to look at Liu Zixuan and directly knelt on the ground.

"Brother Xuan, I was wrong!"

With a wave of his hand, a gentle inner strength lifted Zhao Yi: "I remember when we first met, I told you that a man’s knees are like gold; this is the third time you’ve knelt to me, and I hope it’s the last."

As he spoke, Liu Zixuan turned his attention to Gu Huaqiu: "Besides, you don’t need to apologize to me. The fault doesn’t lie with you, but with these bastards!"

"You’ve merely broken one of our tricks, isn’t it too early to be proud?" Gu Huaqiu had already recovered from the initial shock and, staring into Liu Zixuan’s eyes, said slowly: "Don’t forget, there’s still me to deal with!"

"I will defeat you! In front of everyone in the world!" Liu Zixuan’s eyes flared with sharpness, and the killing intent from his body enveloped the entire scene! Those martial artists with lower realms around were all taken aback.

This overwhelming killing intent didn’t seem possible for someone at the peak of the Imperial Realm, illustrating how deep Liu Zixuan’s hatred for Gu Huaqiu ran!

"Since Zhao Yi has already jumped off the martial arts arena, Liu Zixuan wins this match!"

Ya Fei appeared at just the right moment, saying coldly: "This is a martial arts tournament, and the referee’s panel hopes you put personal grievances aside for now; otherwise, all of you will be disqualified from the tournament!"

"Hmph!" Gu Huaqiu snorted coldly, turning back to the high platform nearby.

Liu Zixuan shot a peculiar look at Ya Fei, then walked off the martial arts arena, ignoring the other martial artists’ PK, and headed toward Zhao Yi and the others.

"No need for extraneous words; in a moment, I will face Gu Huaqiu. Unless something unexpected happens, after the tournament, I will leave with the Profound Sword Sect for their sect."

Saying so, Liu Zixuan looked at Mo Chengfeng: "After I leave, Yunxuan and Zhao Yi will be chosen by other hidden sects, while Huzi and Ripple will wait with the Guiding Order for other sects to take them, so it’s just you guys left. Then, take Nannan directly back to Ghost Wood City, where Crazy Zhou will receive you."

"Brother Xuan, there’s no need to be so cautious; I already spoke with my master, and people from the Thief Sect will protect us." Mo Chengfeng said in a deep voice.

Liu Zixuan shook his head: "This time, we’ve embarrassed the Four Great Clans and Eight Great Powers; they definitely won’t let it go. To be safe, go to Ghost Wood City and wait quietly for us to come back from the sect. Don’t worry, with our talents, it won’t be long."

"Alright." Mo Chengfeng nodded.

Liu Zixuan then looked at Gu Yu: "After the martial arts tournament, don’t go back immediately. Head to the Medical Immortal Sect and bring my master back to Ghost Wood City in a while."
