456: Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran's [Death Battle]

As the Deathmatch began, martial artists with various grudges successively ascended the arena, settling their conflicts.

During this time, some melodramatic tales of love, hatred, and betrayal were exposed, making the onlookers stare with strange expressions.

From infidelity and cuckoldry to revenge killings, avenging fathers, avenging wives, and murder for treasure, the conflicts among the martial artists on the stage were endless.

The Deathmatch only concluded when one party begged for mercy or when one of the two parties died.

Once they left the arena, their past grudges were considered resolved and forgotten.

Of course, a considerable number of people who came to Bujiang Bay today to watch were aiming to witness the once-in-a-century Grandmaster battle.

Compared to that, these earlier "minor skirmishes" were merely appetizers... Bu Jiang Restaurant.

Lin Xuan remained in the Heaven-Rank Private Room No. 1, accompanying his wife and watching the distant arena battles.

Originally, he thought that Su Qingge, seeing such a cruel scene for the first time, would surely be trembling with fear. He had even planned out how he would embrace her and what gentle words he would use to comfort her...

But to his surprise, Su Qingge watched with great interest, completely engrossed, sometimes so focused that she didn't even hear him speak.

This made Lin Xuan a little dejected, as his chance to display his warm-man charm was lost.

(#￣～￣#).

However, whenever a particularly bloody fight appeared, Lin Xuan would instinctively cover the girl's eyes.

Su Qingge smiled bitterly at this, wanting to say that she was actually unfazed by such scenes.

But facing Lin Xuan's caring intentions, she honestly remained silent, letting him do as he pleased, her heart feeling warm.

Beside the two, the Tang Family members watched intently, not daring to take their eyes off Old Six for a moment.

They had learned from Lin Xuan's inner thoughts that the only way to save Old Six from the fate of death and dissipation was to keep him confined within this private room.

Therefore, they dared not relax for a moment, always ready to "entangle" him.

Fortunately, Tang Hao's attention was completely drawn to a pair of male and female martial artists on the arena. He cheered and clapped while watching intently.

This was because the grudge between those two, in some ways, resonated unilaterally with Tang Hao...

On the arena, a young man and woman from a martial arts family faced each other.

"Xiao Yan, prepare to die!"

"Three years have passed in a flash, and I, Nalan Yanran, have not failed expectations. Now is the time to settle our grievances!"

"You heartless man, for that vixen Gu Xun'er, you subjected me to the humiliation of breaking off our engagement. It's time to settle the score."

"..."

Across from the woman, the man named Xiao Yan had a complicated look in his eyes, showing both guilt and relief.

Finally, countless emotions all transformed into a long sigh.

Three years ago, to be with his lifelong love, Gu Xun'er, he went alone to the Nalan Family, wanting to break off his engagement with his childhood sweetheart, Nalan Yanran.

As one might expect, the Nalan Family was enraged, and Nalan Yanran was even more unable to accept it, shedding tears on the spot.

Even though Xiao Yan offered ample compensation, all he received was the hatred of his childhood sweetheart...

"You want to break off the engagement? You can, but I have one condition!"

"I want to make a three-year pact with you. After three years, I will defeat you honorably in front of everyone."

"I want all martial arts families to know that my excellence, Nalan Yanran's excellence, is something you, Xiao Yan, were blind to!"

"I am the one who proposed breaking off the engagement, not you. You, Xiao Yan, are the one who is unworthy of me."

"Hmph! You ungrateful scumbag! I treated you so well all those years, always thinking of you first for everything I ate, used, and drank..."

"I even washed your clothes and cooked for you daily, only to be betrayed by a scoundrel like you!!!"

"..."

After listening to Nalan Yanran's tearful accusations and understanding the whole story, everyone present cast contemptuous glances at Xiao Yan.

Especially Tang Hao, who was so angry that he opened the window and roared up at the arena below:

"The three-year period is up! Please, Miss Nalan, execute this faithless and unrighteous man!!!!"

Tang Hao was emotionally agitated, full of resonance.

This was because he saw his own arduous three years in Nalan Yanran. He had originally thought that after his glorious return, he could get revenge for his grudges, settle his scores, and get his due...

But man proposes, God disposes!

Dad Tang and Mom Tang, he didn't know what kind of bewitching potion they had drunk, but now they were actually protecting Beastly Cousin like this?!

The similar experiences made him resonate with Nalan Yanran and develop a good impression of her, truly hoping she would bravely strike and kill the scumbag (scumbag) Xiao Yan.

On the arena below, Xiao Yan's mouth twitched, but he still earnestly advised:

"Alas, Yanran, when will this cycle of revenge end?"

"You are so outstanding; you will surely meet an even better man in the future. Why cling to me so persistently?"

"A forced melon isn't sweet! Even if we had forcefully honored the engagement back then, we wouldn't have been happy, understand?"

"Besides, you have already exacted devastating revenge on me. Isn't that enough?"

"..."

Xiao Yan, considering their childhood sweetheart relationship and acknowledging that he was indeed the one who broke faith first, never wanted to fight Nalan Yanran to the death.

But Nalan Yanran was unyielding, still shouting for a fight and a killing, her eyes filled with hatred for Xiao Yan.

"Not enough! The humiliation of breaking off the engagement you inflicted upon me can only be washed away with your blood."

"Nalan Yanran! Don't go too far! You've already harmed Brother Xiao to that extent; you're the one who should apologize with your death!"

Everyone turned to look, only to see a petite, frail girl standing by the river, her face full of hatred, glaring at Nalan Yanran.

Gu Xun'er!!!

"You little hussy—"

Nalan Yanran gritted her teeth, wishing she could dismember the "other woman" who had stolen her husband.

But Gu Xun'er showed no fear, looking directly at Nalan Yanran with an even colder gaze...

"You venomous woman! To get revenge on Brother Xiao back then, you secretly drugged him and secretly crippled his ability to be a man."

"Because of your insane actions, Brother Xiao, whose treatment was delayed..."

"Can now never be a normal man. You've harmed him so terribly; how can you still have the face to talk about getting revenge on him?!!!"

(Ò ω Ó ױ) Holy crap!!!

The most venomous heart belongs to a woman!!! ┌(.Д.)┐

Upon hearing this, countless male compatriots on the scene broke out in a cold sweat.

Even Tang Hao, who had been cheering all along, shivered at this moment, and the slight good impression he had developed due to resonance instantly vanished.

No way?!

This method is truly terrifying!!!

On the arena, Xiao Yan's throat felt sweet, almost spitting blood and dying from anger on the spot.

This was a man's eternal pain!!!

How could Xun'er expose it in front of everyone? How was he supposed to live after this?!

But whether it was Xun'er or Nalan Yanran, he felt quite indebted to both girls and truly couldn't bear to criticize either of them.

Forget it, forget it!

Let me atone with my death today... Anyway, ever since I became impotent, I haven't wanted to live for a long time... Uh (⊙o⊙), this paragraph can be skipped, it's off-topic.

I originally planned to write a brief summary, but when I came to my senses, I had made it increasingly absurd (ΩДΩ)...
