116: The traitor's mouth is truly venomous.

Chu Qingtian clenched his fists, his eyes splitting with rage, yet he dared not lash out at Princess Chu Yuelian, forced to suppress his anger.

He forced himself to defend his brother, "Aunt, please calm your anger! My second brother is overcome with grief and spoke without thinking!"

"But even if my third brother was in the wrong and violated the law, he should be judged and punished by the Zhen Tian Mansion, not subjected to vigilante justice by Qin Wushang! These are two different matters!"

Princess Chu Yuelian looked at Chu Qingtian with a calm gaze, her tone carrying a hint of depth as she advised, "Qingtian, you are older than them; you should understand reason better."

"Why did your third brother suddenly go to Wangyou Inn to cause trouble? Do you truly not know who is fanning the flames behind the scenes?"

Chu Qingtian's expression instantly turned incredibly gloomy.

Of course he knew that his third brother, Chu Qinglin, had largely been used as a pawn by Murong Yan of the Murong Family!

But ultimately, the one who killed him was Qin Wushang!

He gritted his teeth and said, "Nephew... knows a little."

"But, a life for a life!"

"The person who killed my third brother is Qin Wushang; that is an indisputable fact!"

"Oh?"

Princess Chu Yuelian curled the corner of her mouth and said indifferently, "Then in your opinion, what should be done?"

Just then, a roar came from afar!

"Naturally, it is to have Qin Wushang sliced into a thousand pieces, his soul extracted and refined, to pay for my son Qinglin's life!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed drastically!

A figure arrived, carrying monstrous hatred and murderous intent, crashing into the scene!

It was none other than King Tianhai!

Chu Tianhai's face was pale, as if he had aged ten years overnight, but his eyes were blood-red, locked firmly onto Qin Wushang!

He wished he could tear him apart alive.

"Little Beast!"

Chu Tianhai's voice was hoarse, filled with bone-deep hatred.

"Don't think that just because Your Majesty is protecting you, you can rest easy! The grudge of killing my son is irreconcilable!"

Facing the terrifying pressure of this Supreme, Qin Wushang's expression remained indifferent and composed.

He even took a step forward, meeting his gaze without a shred of fear, a cold, sharp arc curling at the corner of his lips.

"Old Beast, I killed him."

"What do you want to do about it?"

"Crack!"

Chu Tianhai's fists clenched violently, the terrifying sound of knuckles cracking rang out, and his Supreme aura erupted uncontrollably.

The surrounding Void Realm began to twist and collapse violently with him at the center, as if it could not withstand his monstrous rage and murderous intent!

"Tianhai! What are you trying to do?"

Princess Chu Yuelian immediately stepped forward, vaguely shielding Qin Wushang behind her, and shouted sternly.

This reprimand made Chu Tianhai, who was on the verge of blind rage, calm down slightly.

But the hatred in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest; he turned to Princess Chu Yuelian, his voice filled with grief, indignation, and confusion.

"Imperial Sister! I cannot understand!"

"I really cannot understand! Why are you and Your Majesty both like this?"

"Your own nephew was killed, and instead of avenging him, you go to great lengths to protect an outsider!"

"What kind of love potion did this Qin Wushang feed you to make you protect him so much?"

Princess Chu Yuelian looked at him with profound eyes and countered with a question, "Tianhai, do you truly not understand?"

This sentence made the enraged Chu Tianhai pause abruptly, falling into silence.

But his blood-red eyes remained fixed on Qin Wushang like a viper, his murderous intent not diminishing in the slightest.

At this moment, Chu Qingtian suddenly stood out, his voice firm and decisive, resounding throughout the entire venue.

"Regardless of the reasons behind this, and regardless of what mistakes my third brother made, a life for a life is the natural order of things!"

"Since Qin Wushang killed my third brother, he must pay the price!"

He pointed fiercely at Qin Wushang and continued to shout, "Father! Aunt! I, Chu Qingtian, hereby challenge Qin Wushang to a life-and-death battle!"

"To determine the victor, and to decide life and death! To comfort the soul of my third brother in heaven!"

A life-and-death battle?

The entire crowd was in an uproar, finding it unbelievable.

"Does Chu Qingtian have no shame?"

"He is in the Heavenly God Realm! And Qin Wushang is only in the Divine Fire Realm! This is blatant bullying!"

"How shameless! A Heavenly God Realm cultivator, if he can't win in the same Realm, he relies on his cultivation to suppress others?"

"Indeed, there is not a single good thing in the Prince Tianhai's Residence, from top to bottom! It is truly disgusting!"

"How can he have the nerve to say that!"

The crowd exploded, and the various sounds of contemptuous discussion made the faces of Chu Tianhai and his son look extremely ugly.

Princess Chu Yuelian frowned tightly and said coldly, "Qingtian, if you suppress your cultivation to the Divine Fire Realm and do not use the power of your dao seed, for a fair fight, I might allow it."

"Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible!"

She believed in Qin Wushang for a battle in the same Realm!

But to fight across two major Realms, even though Qin Wushang had shown himself to be an incredible Prodigy, it was still not quite right!

Chu Tianhai immediately retorted, "As human beings, cultivation Realms are all obtained through one's own hard work!"

"Since it is a life-and-death battle, how can there be any logic in binding one's own hands and feet by suppressing one's Realm?"

"If one suppresses their Realm upon seeing an enemy, then why did my son work so hard to Cultivate?"

Chu Qingtian also held his head high and shouted, "Correct! In everything I, Chu Qingtian, do, I only seek to have a clear conscience!"

"Having a high cultivation is also my ability!"

"Qin Wushang, do you dare to step onto the Life-and-Death Arena with me and fight to the death?"

He once again cast his gaze, filled with provocation and murderous intent, toward Qin Wushang.

Just then, the System's voice emerged in Qin Wushang's mind!

【Ding! Triggering choice...】

【Option 1: Accept the challenge, agree to Chu Qingtian's life-and-death battle, and defeat a Heavenly God while in the Divine Fire Realm, becoming famous in one battle.】

【Script: You accept the challenge, thinking you will successfully show off, but it leads to much discussion.】

【Your Realm is too low, and everyone is pessimistic about your chances, even Princess Chu Yuelian does not favor you, urging you to stop.】

【Because you want the rewards, you naturally will not stop, saying it is not a big problem, and calmly prepare to fight.】

【Under the gaze of the masses, you step onto the Life-and-Death Arena with Chu Qingtian, who suppresses his Realm.】

【This battle is extremely dangerous, as there is a huge gap between the Heavenly God Realm and the Divine Fire Realm, but you possess the Supreme Double Pupils, the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo, the Myriad Dao Divine Fire, and many trump cards, so you are not without the strength to fight...】

【You fight with Chu Qingtian and beat him into critical condition, thinking the battle is over, but little do you know that Chu Qingtian directly consumes a forbidden pill, his cultivation skyrocketing to the God King Realm...】

【You want to kill Chu Qingtian, and Chu Tianhai intervenes, wanting to take the opportunity to kill you...】

【You become famous throughout the Imperial Capital, completely crushing the provocations of the Prince Tianhai's Residence, and winning supreme prestige.】

【But you are completely placed on the kill list of the Prince Tianhai's Residence!】

【Reward: True Dragon Secret Art, Six Paths Reincarnation Fist.】

【Option 2: Decline the challenge, temporarily avoid the edge, use words to pressure him, rely on the Grand Princess's protection, and do not conduct an unfair life-and-death battle with Chu Qingtian.】

【Script: You refuse Chu Qingtian's challenge, use words to reprimand Chu Qingtian for being shameless, curse the ancestors of the Prince Tianhai's Residence for eighteen generations, cursing until their ancestral graves smoke black.】

【Chu Yuehua, who is hiding in the Void Realm watching all this, cannot help but have a dark expression, secretly cursing, "Why didn't I notice that my Rebellious Disciple's tongue was so venomous when we were kissing."】

【Your tongue is too venomous, cursing until Chu Tianhai vomits blood, and he cannot help but attack in a rage, regardless of everything to kill you.】

【Chu Yuehua intervenes, settling everything.】

【Chu Qingtian says he will suppress his Realm to fight you, but you still refuse, which is seen as cowardice.】

【Although you can save your life, it attracts much criticism and secret ridicule, and you are considered to have a reputation but no substance, relying on a woman for protection.】

【The Prince Tianhai's Residence will surely make a big deal out of this and constantly slander your reputation.】

【However, you can buy time to improve your strength faster and crush them back with absolute strength in the future.】

【Reward: Great Void Imperial Scripture, Divine Ability: Slippery Feet.】

【Please choose!】

Looking at the two options, Qin Wushang could not help but raise an eyebrow.

This means that at this very moment, Chu Yuehua is watching everything!

He looked up at the Void Realm, his Supreme Double Pupils shining with light, locking onto a figure.

It was none other than Chu Yuehua!

No matter what choice he made, he would be fine!

Now the question is the rewards!

Option 1's True Dragon Secret Art is undoubtedly very powerful, and the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist goes without saying!

But Option 2 is not bad either!

The Great Void Imperial Scripture, which controls Void Realm secret arts, is absolutely useful for fighting or sneak attacks!

Not to mention there is also a personal Divine Ability!

"System! I choose Option 1!"

"As fellow Prodigies, why should I avoid his edge!"

Qin Wushang thought to himself.

Everyone's eyes were focused on him, waiting for his answer.

"What? Are you afraid?"

Chu Qingtian shouted.

As for avenging his brother, he actually didn't care that much, nor did he think much of it!

After all, with his brother dead, there was one less rival for the family inheritance!

But the emperor medicine!

He really wanted it!

Given Qin Wushang's strength, he guessed that he definitely hadn't finished refining the emperor medicine, not to mention that he also had the emperor armor to plot for!

Qin Wushang slowly raised his head, his gaze sweeping calmly over Chu Qingtian's murderous face, a curve slowly forming at the corner of his mouth.

"Then let us fight!"

"Good! If you lose, the emperor medicine is mine, and everything you have is mine!"

"And vice versa!"

Hearing this, a look of excitement appeared in Chu Qingtian's eyes!

This time, he was determined to win!

"Shang'er! Do not be reckless!"
