86: Seize the treasure amidst the chaos

Slaughter Arena temporarily closed for business!

The City of Chaos was uncharacteristically silent, with continuous drizzle under a canopy of dark clouds.

People were all discussing tomorrow's life-and-death duel.

"Who will win?"

"Hard to say. Chu Wudi has a chance to win against Wei Yuheng, after all, a Xuan Gang Realm Seven-Star fighting a Peak. As for Current Alias of Lu Yuan..."

"Most likely one win and one loss, or the Drunken Gang wins, and then one-third of the Slaughter Arena's profits will go to the Drunken Gang!"

Looking at the gloomy rain outside the window, Lu Yuan patiently waited for tomorrow to arrive.

"When will the heaven and earth spirit treasure in the City Lord's Mansion blossom and bear fruit?"

Lu Yuan asked again.

"Tomorrow noon!" Han Junchen gave a precise time.

Inside the room, Chu Wushe wiped his high-grade spirit tool knuckle dusters, while Jiang Tianxia meditated cross-legged on the bed.

The light rain gradually turned into a downpour, and Practitioners outside the City of Chaos who couldn't enter without demon crystals shivered.

Some couldn't hold on and fell into the rain, losing their breath.

Seeing the dead person, multiple excited gazes converged on him.

Splash, splash—

Blood mixed with rainwater nourished the land.

The next day!

At the Slaughter Arena, the three factions gathered!

Residents of the City of Chaos poured in, ready to watch this life-and-death duel concerning the interests of the Slaughter Arena and the Drunken Gang!

Lu Yuan sat in a chair and noticed that Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena's adopted daughter, Luo Xishuang, was missing.

Lian Hongyi, Qiu Jinsong, and Lie Ruman, the leader of the Evil Wolf Gang, who served the City Lord, were all present.

"If the Slaughter Arena wins, the Drunken Gang will voluntarily give up the water resources of the City of Chaos!"

Lie Ruman, wearing a mask, exhaled plumes of white smoke.

"If the Drunken Gang wins, the Slaughter Arena will voluntarily give up one-third of its profits!"

"Do both sides need to raise the stakes?" Lie Ruman asked.

"Raise the stakes!"

To the surprise of the audience and Lie Ruman, the one who raised the stakes was not Qiu Jinsong, who clearly had the advantage, but Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena.

"If Current Alias of Lu Yuan and Chu Wudi win, I want Qiu Jinsong's head!"

Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena said.

Hearing this, Qiu Jinsong's expression changed. He didn't expect Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena to gamble his life!

"If you want to die, then go ahead." Qiu Jinsong sat in an enlarged and widened chair, looking like a big ball of meat.

"Good, whoever loses dies!"

Lie Ruman's tone was cold.

"My life is in your hands." Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena said to Lu Yuan and Chu Wushe with a fake smile.

"Three minutes."

Chu Wushe walked onto the Arena Stage, looking at his life-and-death duel opponent, Wei Yuheng, who was at Xuan Gang Realm Peak.

Lu Yuan sat with his legs crossed, enjoying Chu Wushe's performance.

"I think it's two minutes and thirty-four seconds." Han Junchen was still in his crazy state.

To avoid exposing his identity, Chu Wushe only used Lightning and Wind Attribute Spirit Skills.

Lightning focused on killing, and Wind on agility. Facing the clumsy Earth Attribute, Xuan Gang Realm Peak Wei Yuheng, Chu Wushe toyed with him until he was dizzy.

Lightning focused on killing, and Wind on agility.

Pfft—

A concentrated Lightning Slash pierced into Wei Yuheng's heart from behind.

"Goodbye!" Chu Wushe brutally dug out Wei Yuheng's heart, then tortured him to death.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—

A corpse charred black by electricity appeared on the Arena Stage.

Seeing this scene, the audience gasped.

What kind of monster was Chu Wushe?

Wei Yuheng, a Xuan Gang Realm Peak expert, was powerless against him, shattering their perception of Practitioners!

Qiu Jinsong, who sat in the chair like a ball of meat, had a grim expression.

"Chu Wudi wins!"

Lie Ruman, the leader of the Evil Wolf Gang, said.

"My life is saved." Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena tossed a storage ring to Chu Wushe.

Inside were 50 dragon blood crystals!

In Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena's opinion, Chu Wushe was very clever. Not long ago, he had guessed that Chu Wushe was not a death row inmate by the way Chu Wushe gave his opponent a quick death.

Today, Chu Wushe deliberately tortured his opponent, perfectly disguising himself as an unforgivable villain who regarded human lives as mere grass!

"It's your turn." Chu Wushe sat in the chair.

Lu Yuan stood up.

"Kill him!" Qiu Jinsong said to Gao Tianyou.

They couldn't lose again. One win and one loss would be a draw. If Gao Tianyou lost again, his head would belong to Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena!

"Don't worry, Gang Leader, I'll deal with Current Alias of Lu Yuan in three minutes!" Gao Tianyou said with a confident expression.

He knew that Current Alias of Lu Yuan had killed Deng Yifan.

But so what? Deng Yifan was only at Divine Power Realm Peak and had only comprehended one Divine Ability.

Whereas he, a dual-attribute Divine Power Realm Peak expert, had comprehended two Divine Abilities!

"Kill Gao Tianyou, and 150 dragon blood crystals will be offered with both hands." Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena patted Lu Yuan's shoulder.

Originally, he had no intention of acting against Qiu Jinsong.

But Qiu Jinsong's words yesterday had stirred his murderous intent; Qiu Jinsong had to die before he left the City of Chaos!

On the Arena Stage, Lu Yuan looked at Gao Tianyou, who had both Earth and Fire Attributes.

Earth for defense, Fire for offense.

This combination of attributes made Gao Tianyou invincible; he had no opponents in the Divine Power Realm!

"Who will win?"

Today, the Slaughter Arena was packed, but no betting was open, and the audience unusually didn't cheer for anyone.

demonic energy leaked out, and Lu Yuan made the first move.

Mystic Tier High-Grade Spirit Skill: Soul Burning and Spirit Devouring

Flames condensed from demonic energy rushed towards Gao Tianyou!

An earthen-yellow wall appeared out of thin air, blocking the demonic energy. Gao Tianyou then counterattacked with a Fire Attribute Spirit Skill.

Mystic Tier High-Grade Spirit Skill: Lava Flow

"A Divine Ability that enhances Spirit Skill power?" Chu Wushe looked at the crimson lava on the Arena Stage, discerning the effect of Gao Tianyou's comprehended Divine Ability.

It was clearly a Mystic Tier High-Grade Spirit Skill, yet its power was comparable to a low-grade Earth-rank Spirit Skill!

"I thought it was a more impressive Divine Ability." Lu Yuan shook his head.

After a brief exchange to test Gao Tianyou's comprehended Divine Ability, Lu Yuan didn't hesitate.

demonic energy enveloped the venue!

Earth Tier Advanced Spirit Skill: Chaotic Strike

Earth Tier Advanced Spirit Skill: Withering Touch

Earth Tier Advanced Spirit Skill: Bone Piercing Soul

...He unleashed six Earth Tier Advanced Spirit Skills in one breath!

Gao Tianyou: "???"

The audience present: "???"

"He's Lu Yuan!" Qiu Jinsong shouted.

"What the hell are you talking about? Lu Yuan is a Puppet Master, Current Alias of Lu Yuan is a Demon Attribute Practitioner!"

Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena retorted.

Looking at Gao Tianyou, who was struggling to block Lu Yuan's attacks on the Arena Stage, Qiu Jinsong swallowed.

He panicked!

This Practitioner named Current Alias of Lu Yuan actually unleashed six Earth Tier Advanced Spirit Skills in one breath.

His spiritual power reserves were on par with Lu Yuan, whom the City Lord had explicitly ordered to be killed!

So Qiu Jinsong subconsciously blurted out Lu Yuan's name, but upon hearing Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena's words, he realized that their professions didn't match.

More importantly, Gao Tianyou couldn't hold on. If Gao Tianyou lost, he would also be finished!

"Damn it!" Gao Tianyou cursed.

He didn't dare to use his full power attack on Lu Yuan; Deng Yifan had died in Lu Yuan's hands that way.

As he fought, Gao Tianyou found himself in a strange loop.

He couldn't overpower Lu Yuan in a Spirit Skill clash, even if his awakened Divine Ability could elevate his Spirit Skill's power by a notch.

Lu Yuan simply unleashed Earth Tier Advanced Spirit Skills, and his spiritual power reserves were far greater than his!

A full power attack was even less feasible; Lu Yuan's comprehended Divine Ability could return the opponent's attack upon them!

How could he fight this?

Gao Tianyou felt despair.

"Then die!" Lu Yuan made the choice for him, unleashing another Earth Tier Advanced Spirit Skill that blasted Gao Tianyou into pieces.

"Current Alias of Lu Yuan wins!"

Lie Ruman, the leader of the Evil Wolf Gang, said.

The entire venue was silent, not expecting this outcome!

Gao Tianyou, a Divine Power Realm Peak expert who had comprehended two Divine Abilities, died at the hands of Current Alias of Lu Yuan, who had only comprehended one Divine Ability and had recently broken through!

"Current Alias of Lu Yuan." Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena tossed a storage ring.

Lu Yuan took it and checked; 150 dragon blood crystals were in hand!

"Lie Ruman, I won." Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena said, then turned to look at Qiu Jinsong.

Wolf claws appeared!

Qiu Jinsong struggled to stand up from his chair.

"The water resources of the City of Chaos are yours, but my life is not!" Qiu Jinsong said.

What a joke, he couldn't possibly lose his life to Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena.

"I knew you'd say that." Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena was not surprised.

"Attack!"

Splash, splash—

Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena's wolf claws stabbed towards Qiu Jinsong, and his subordinates drew their weapons and charged at the Drunken Gang members!

"Are you crazy? Aren't you afraid of the City Lord's wrath?!" Qiu Jinsong didn't expect Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena to act so decisively.

"Die!"

Lian Hongyi, Boss of the Slaughter Arena's offensive grew even more fierce.

Chaos!

The Slaughter Arena was in utter chaos, and Lie Ruman, the leader of the Evil Wolf Gang, had a hesitant expression.

She didn't know who to help.

"Let's go." Lu Yuan said to Han Junchen, who was watching the commotion.

"Where to?"

"The City Lord's Mansion!"
