Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Are we betting everything we have? Including this maid?”
Shen Ran was immediately interested and turned to look at Hong Jing.
“Not to mention my maid, as long as you can defeat my brother, you can take away my wealth and life! Do you dare to enter the deathmatch with my brother?!”
Hong Xiaoxian was extremely confident.
Ever since he entered the Eighth Summit, he had never seen an ordinary disciple defeat his elder brother.
In every deathmatch, all the opponents were tortured to death by Hong Jing!
He himself liked the way those abused people begged.
He was usually unreasonable. Actually, he also hoped that someone would fight him because of his provocation.
In this way, he could ask his brother to kill others sadistically.
Sometimes, Hong Xiaoxian would even ask his elder brother to let him skin and tear apart his opponents.
“You two brothers’ lives and entire fortune? That suits me!”
Shen Ran’s eyes lit up and he gladly agreed to enter the death ring with Hong Jing.
After all, he wanted to build a good relationship with the future Empress Divine Phoenix.
......
Besides, he had heard all the discussions around him.
This Hong Jing was actually Wang Qingxuan’s subordinate, and he even had that disgusting eccentricity.
He had to get rid of them quickly!
“You agreed? Then why aren’t you going to the ring? Hurry up!”
Hearing that Shen Ran had agreed to enter the death ring, Hong Xiaoxian was even more excited than his elder brother, Hong Jing.
“Young Master…”
When the maidservant heard that Shen Ran wanted to fight Hong Jing to the death for her, she immediately grabbed Shen Ran’s pants and looked at him pleadingly.
“Good girl. Don’t worry, it’s fine.”
Shen Ran gently stroked the maid’s head and comforted her softly.
“Hmph. Seeing how much you like my brother’s ugly maid, I’ll send her down to be with you when you die. But I’m afraid it won’t be easy before you die.”
Hong Jing waved the fan in his hand and said slowly.
“Let’s not waste time here. Let’s go.”
With that, Shen Ran walked towards the ring set up in the sect.
Hong Jing jumped lightly and followed.
“This young man is too impulsive! As the chief disciple of the Eighth Summit, Hong Jing’s strength has reached the sixth level of the Divine Sea Realm. His talent is terrifying.”
“I wonder what this young man has to rely on. I hope he’s not just being impulsive.”
They all followed behind, talking incessantly.
From their conversation regarding who the winner would be, they were inclined towards Hong Jing.
The two of them faced each other in the ring.
Everyone present fell silent, holding their breaths and waiting for the results.
In the ring.
Apart from Shen Ran and Hong Jing, there was also an elder who was in charge of being the witness of the deathmatch.
“Once the deathmatch begins, only life and death can be decided on the stage. No matter the outcome, the winner can have all the money of the loser, and at the same time, the grudge will be settled… Do you have any objections?”
The elder spoke slowly.
They both nodded.
“In that case, let’s start over there.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Witness had already appeared below the stage.
The deathmatch began!
“You know what? I appreciate your ignorance—”
Hong Jing smiled as he fanned himself.
Unexpectedly, he only got halfway through his sentence.
He heard a sharp stab in his ear.
Shen Ran, who was opposite him, flashed and appeared in front of him in the next moment.
Hong Jing tensed.
He did not expect Shen Ran to be so fast.
Hong Jing was completely unprepared. He didn’t even have time to mobilize the spiritual energy in his divine sea.
“Buzz!”
At this moment, a light blue protective shield popped out from the jade pendant on his neck.
This was Hong Jing’s family heirloom.
The Black Tortoise Guardian Jade.
The popped out protective shield could unleash a full-powered attack at the first level of the Illumination Realm.
And yet…
“Crack!”
The Black Tortoise Guardian Jade’s protective shield exploded the moment it touched Shen Ran’s fist.
The speed of Shen Ran’s fist was not affected at all.
“Boom!”
The punch that broke the sound barrier smashed into Hong Jing’s chest.
His chest caved in, forming a huge pit.
A bulge appeared behind Hong Jing’s back.
Then the protrusion exploded!
A large bloody hole appeared in his back.
Scarlet blood, mixed with a large number of bones and internal organs, sprayed out of the big hole.
It stained most of the ring’s area blood red.
“You—”
Hong Jing’s eyes bulged, and the blood vessels on his eyeballs were red. His expression was exceptionally ferocious.
He opened his mouth to say something.
In the next second, blood flowed out of the seven apertures of his head and he fell forward on the ring, dead.
Looking through the gaping hole in his back, the trunk was empty.
Under the huge force of Shen Ran’s punch, all the internal organs and vertebrae turned into fragments and sprayed out.
“Shen Ran, Victory!”
Below the stage, the elder in charge of witnessing this deathmatch announced the outcome expressionlessly.
All the onlookers stared in disbelief.
They had not expected the deathmatch to end after less than half a second.
Was Hong Jing killed by a single punch?
Shen Ran frowned. “Aren’t you at the sixth level of the Divine Sea Realm? I’m also at the sixth level of the Divine Sea Realm. I haven’t even used my cultivation yet? You can’t even withstand a punch from my physical strength?”
