136: The Promise of Solo War
“So, I want to temporarily spare his life.”
“I wonder if you all can give me some Face.”
“What are you?”
“Why should we give you Face?”
An Elder of a Sect suddenly cursed at Star Moon Elder, using extremely foul language.
“A whore who is available to anyone.”
“How dare you speak in front of us?”
“Do you have that qualification?”
“Why don't you just go back to your filthy Luoyue Sect?”
As soon as he finished speaking, his life ended.
Star Moon Elder's small Face turned pale.
She rushed towards that Elder with extreme speed.
Before anyone could react, her slender hands had already gripped the Elder's neck.
Then, she smiled slightly and squeezed.
With a 'crack' sound, the Elder's neck was broken.
Afterward, the corpse was thrown out of the discussion hall.
Just then, Yang Ming walked in, carrying a tea tray.
The corpse happened to be thrown into his arms.
The corpse fell to the ground, and the items in his hands also fell.
Teacups and teapots clattered onto the ground.
The hot water splashed onto the Elder's Face.
Although the Elder was dead, perhaps because he had just died, he could still perceive some pain, and his body actually twitched.
Yang Ming took a step back, glanced at the deceased Elder, and then looked into the discussion hall.
The corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
He had only gone to make some tea, and a fight had already broken out inside.
Yang Yi had already stepped down from his seat.
In front of him lay a corpse cut into two halves.
As for how this corpse flew out or who killed it, Yang Ming still didn't know.
He naturally assumed Yang Yi had killed him.
He couldn't help but feel deeply moved.
Only our family head, Yang Yi, has this courage and ability.
In a short time, he had killed two Elders.
He secretly peeked at the expressions of the others and found them somewhat strange.
Some were angry, some were watching with a sense of schadenfreude, and some even sneered.
It seemed this group was not a united front.
Wang Xifeng stared coldly at the Star Moon Elder who had made a move, his teeth grinding audibly.
“Star Moon Elder, what do you want to do?”
“Are you deaf? Didn't you hear what was said just now?”
“I want to protect Yang Yi.”
As Star Moon Elder spoke, she had already returned to her seat, not giving Wang Xifeng any Face at all.
Wang Xifeng's eyelid twitched.
He knew it wouldn't be easy to kill Yang Yi today.
The reason he brought so few people was because he knew things wouldn't be that simple.
It wasn't because Yang Yi was so capable, nor was the Yang family so powerful.
It was because other Sects would intervene.
Sure enough, just as he had expected, people from other Sects did intervene.
Although only Cang Jiuzhou and Twenty had intervened so far, people from other Sects would probably not sit idly by.
The Sects that could truly help Diancang Sect were actually pitifully few.
However, he had already planned his strategy.
This group of people could not possibly go to war with the entire Diancang Sect for the Yang family, for a single Yang Yi.
What they wanted to see was the Yang family and Diancang Sect gradually wear each other down, until Diancang Sect was exhausted.
In secret, they might even help the Yang family.
However, they would never do these things openly.
His idea was that as long as Yang Yi was killed, the Yang family would lose its backbone and naturally collapse.
His ultimate target was Yang Yi.
His gaze fell coldly on Yang Yi.
“I searched for you for a long time in Purple River Valley, but I didn't see you.”
“Today, I finally found you.”
“Our grievances should be settled now.”
“What Cang Jiuzhou said just now is correct.”
“We, as a dignified righteous Sect, cannot implicate the innocent due to one person's mistake.”
“So, I've decided.”
“Let's have a fight, just the two of us.”
“If you can survive my hands, I will let bygones be bygones regarding the past.”
This statement made everyone else stunned, especially Yang Ming outside, who was dumbfounded.
“You killed his wife, killed his son, and you're just going to let bygones be bygones?”
It didn't sound true no matter how he heard it.
The others immediately became tense.
They knew that the strength difference between Yang Yi and Wang Xifeng was vast.
As long as they fought, Yang Yi would surely die.
If Yang Yi died, the remaining people would become useless.
Therefore, Yang Yi absolutely could not die.
If he didn't die, he could slowly entangle with the Diancang Sect.
If he died, then Diancang Sect would have resolved a major hidden danger, and keeping the Yang family would be useless.
At this moment, many people made up their minds.
If Yang Yi were killed, then the Yang family wouldn't need to be kept either.
However, now they had to prevent a fight between Yang Yi and Wang Xifeng.
Star Moon Elder of Luoyue Sect was the first to stop them.
She directly came in front of Yang Yi and Wang Xifeng.
Although she was staring at Wang Xifeng, her words were for Yang Yi.
“No.”
“The difference in your identities is too great.”
“It's too unfair.”
“What is your strength?”
“And what is Yang Yi's strength?”
“Isn't this bullying a child?”
Wang Xifeng suppressed his impatience, staring coldly at the meddlesome woman in front of him.
A sinister sneer curled at the corner of his mouth.
“Star Moon Elder, I advise you not to meddle in others' affairs.”
“He killed my wife and son.”
“I'm not destroying the Yang family.”
“Giving him a chance to fight me alone is already giving you Face.”
“Are you trying to push your luck?”
“If you say any more nonsense, don't blame me for even destroying your Luoyue Sect.”
“If you had that ability, wouldn't you have destroyed it already?” Star Moon Elder raised an eyebrow, said nothing more, and turned to look at Yang Yi.
“If you don't want to fight, he would never dare to make things difficult for you.”
“If he does make things difficult for you, we here would not agree either.”
“Although we came with the people from Diancang Sect, we are not here to help Diancang Sect.”
“Instead, we are here to be a witness.”
“Witness? Witness what?” Yang Yi asked curiously.
Star Moon Elder did not answer his question and returned to her seat.
At the same time, she glanced at Cang Jiuzhou not far away.
Cang Jiuzhou slowly rose and came in front of Wang Xifeng, still calling him brother and maintaining a very good relationship.
After comforting Wang Xifeng for a few moments, he turned to answer Yang Yi's question.
“Witness your grievances.”
“Witness your agreement.”
“What agreement?” Yang Yi became even more curious.
He felt that things were developing in an uncontrollable direction, and he seemed to have become someone else's chess piece.
Cang Jiuzhou smiled and answered faintly, “It's what Wang Xifeng just said.”
“This is the agreement.”
“He will fight you one-on-one.”
“No matter who wins or loses between the two of you, this matter will end here.”
