Gu Hai... is dead?
Hong Qiu was shocked. So was Cai Guo.
Hong Qiu could accept the fact that the first casualty was Hong Jun. He was weak, and didn't stand a chance against this monster in the seventh layer.
But he hoped that the next casualty would be Liu Feng, who had faced off against the veteran that was Gu Hai. A junior shouldn't have stood a chance against Gu Hai, and yet, that was exactly what had happened.
Gu Hai lost in the hands of a youth who didn't even have facial hair! This was just inconceivable.
And with the loss of the second most powerful cultivator in their roster, as well as another cultivator among them, this was looking like a grim battle for the Hong family.
Not able to do anything, Hong Qiu grit his teeth. He glanced at Cai Guo, who seemed to read his mind.
"If you want to enter the battle there, then you will have to go through me. Although I am not as confident that I can beat you, I am sure that you are not strong enough to defeat me. Especially when you lost your imperial artifact to the Sky Heavens sect." Cai Guo said as a red sword appeared in his hands.
The sword shone in the sun's light, and it appeared to be made of blood, with the sword shimmering throughout like ruby.
"You took out the Blood Moon Sword for this?"
"Did you really think that I wouldn't have made my own preparations? When I knew that you brought so many people from outside?" Cai Guo chuckled as he shook his head.
Aaargh!
They both looked to the side immediately. That sound could only mean one thing. Another casualty. And they were only concerned as to who it was.
Feng Wang was sitting over a corpse, calmly looking at Hong Qiu and Cai Guo. The man below him, another Hong family cultivator, was as dead as dead could be.
With that, three of the Hong family's side were gone. Only five more remained, with one of them being locked in a standstill that he just couldn't come out of.
The remaining three allies of the Hong family, Tian Wan included, were starting to get jitters. Right now, because of the fact that there were casualties already, Liu Feng, Liu Man, and Feng Wang were all available to start double teaming on the four that remained to be killed.
But they didn't. They glanced at Hong Qiu at the top and laughed.
"Leave the Hong bastard to me. I have the biggest beef with them. You can take someone else." Feng Wang stepped forward.
Liu Feng could not counter. Sure, the Hong family sent someone to kill him, but it wasn't a proper attack. The assassin couldn't do anything to him, and died in a heartbeat. Meanwhile, Feng Wang almost died because of the attack from the Hong family.
It was obvious that Feng Wang would have more hatred toward this family, and would not rest till its bloodline was eradicated.
Liu Feng quickly glanced at Tian Wan, who was nervously battling one of the Cai family's people. Liu Feng calmy hovered near.
The Cai family's cultivator quickly acknowledged Liu Feng's existence. Now that he defeated Gu Hai, he was hailed as the second most powerful man in the current roster until proven otherwise. Obviously, they were going to treat him well.
"I am not shameless and a coward like them. I will not gang up on him. But he needs to die today. You can take a rest while I take care of him." Liu Feng said calmly.
"As you wish, Young Noble." the Cai family cultivator stopped battling Tian Wan and retreated back.
Liu Feng smiled as he looked at Tian Wan.
"Well then. What are you going to do now? You have no choice but to fight. The moment that you do run, Yue Zhe over there will kill you. And let me warn you, that man has killed peak Soul Evolution Stage cultivators before." Liu Feng gave a smile that gave Tian Wan shivers.
Tian Wan grit his teeth. He then gripped the sword that he had in his hand and charged toward Liu Feng.
"What a stupid idiot. He saw that I defeated Gu Hai, someone who was stronger than him, and instead of taking the defensive, he takes the offensive and charges headfirst?" Liu Feng shook his head as he disappeared from where he stood.
Tian Wan halted, standing where Liu Feng once stood, confused. Although they knew the outcome of the battle, no one except for Cai Guo, Hong Qiu, and Liu Man were free to look at the battle itself.
No one was able to see Liu Feng demonstrate his lightning fast speed.
Liu Feng appeared right above Tian Wan, his spear about to pierce downward, when Tian Wan looked up, his sword ready.
"You might be stronger than me, boy, but I sure am more endowed than you." Tian Wan smiled as something in his hands shone.
It was a talisman, and it did not seem like the defensive type that Liu Feng had laid his eyes upon all this time.
The talisman burnt into ashes, and all of a sudden, a lightning snake rushed from the talisman and soared towards the approaching Liu Feng.
"Wow. This is so interesting. I wonder what this is." Liu Feng wondered as his spear went forward to meet it, but Liu Feng himself disappeared.
Blast!
The spear was knocked away instantly, and the lightning snake vanished with the job done.
"You sure do have some good stuff on you. But in fights like this. Power will always triumph." Liu Feng's voice whispered in Tian Wan's ears.
Pierce!
A sword, just an ordinary Heaven Grade sword, pierced through Tian Wan's body, and the frost started spreading from the sword.
"Alright. Four down. Four to go."
