Xu Wan was still able to maintain her composure as she said in a low voice, "Don't be impatient, this is Dragon Lake City. Not to mention a few thousand troops of the Vicious Wolf Army, even if the entire army of the Vicious Wolf Army was gathered, they wouldn't dare enter the city!"
"These guards and Exalted Immortals of Dragon Lake City aren't to be trifled with."
Duan Tianliang's expression eased up slightly when he heard Xu Wan say this.
On the other side, after the messenger guard brought this news, he didn't leave, and he had a hesitant expression as he repeatedly wanted to speak but stopped.
"What else is there, speak!"
Commander Liu had a bellyful of anger from losing the bet, and when he saw the messenger guard hesitating, his expression couldn't help but go cold as he berated the messenger guard.
The messenger guard was terrified to the point his entire body trembled, and he hurriedly said, "Commander Liu, I've just received news that originally Xueyanggu's Chen Xuanyang led an army of 5,000 to Dragon Lake City, but an accident occurred on the way."
The Sala leaf was something that all the great powers wanted to obtain.
But at the auction this time, not a single Xueyanggu cultivator was seen, and this was truly slightly strange.
When they heard this news, all the cultivators revealed expressions of sudden understanding.
But in next to no time, an even greater doubt arose in the hearts of everyone.
Xueyanggu was one of the eight great powers, and Chen Xuanyang was Xueyanggu's Young Master. What accident could have occurred when he led an army of 5,000?
The messenger guard swallowed his saliva and said, "I've received definite news that Xueyanggu's army of 5,000 was almost completely annihilated, and only a few hundred people survived. “
"Xueyanggu's Young Master, Chen Xuanyang, was heavily injured, and one of his arms was severed!"
When this news was spoken out, it was like a stone that caused a thousand ripples, and it caused an uproar in the crowd!
Which power had such ability to heavily injure Xueyanggu's army of 5,000?
Which power had such courage to actually attack Xueyanggu's army?
Moreover, they even heavily injured Chen Xuanyang!
It could be imagined that no matter which power did it, they'd already become enemies with Xueyanggu and become Xueyanggu's number one enemy!
"Could it be the work of the Four Great Bandits?"
"As far as I know, two of the Four Great Bandits, the Wolf Army and the Goshawk Gang, are very close to Xueyanggu. It shouldn't be them."
"However, I haven't heard that the remaining two bandits have any grudges with Xueyanggu."
Everyone started discussing, but they still couldn't guess the result.
Duan Tianliang had a strange look on his face and did not say a word.
When Commander Liu heard this news, his expression was indifferent.
Not to mention that only a few thousand people from Xueyanggu had died, even if all the people from Xueyanggu had died, he wouldn't care.
Once Xueyanggu was destroyed, a second new power would be born. The cycle of reincarnation would change again and again.
But Dragon Lake City remained unchanged since time immemorial, and it stood towering from beginning to end!
Commander Liu's gaze was still fixed on the green figure in the middle of the arena. He casually asked, "Oh, who did it?"
"According to this subordinate's understanding, the person in the lead is called Su Zimo, and he's precisely the person that the Wolf Army has a bounty on!"
The guard said in a deep voice.
"What?!"
Commander Liu's heart skipped a beat as he exclaimed.
At the side, Yan Fei's expression was normal, as though he wasn't surprised at all.
When the crowd below heard that, there was a momentary silence as well. Thereafter, an even louder uproar broke out!
"To think that it's him!"
"No wonder he dared to accept Ding Yu's challenge and killed him with a single palm strike!"
"That person sure has guts! To think that he would dare to attack Xueyanggu!"
"That person didn't just offend Xueyanggu. He offended the Wolf Army and Mystic Yin Mountain as well."
The woman in blue from Thunder Quake Hall was shocked. She could not help but look at the green robed cultivator in the middle of the arena once more with a hint of shock and curiosity in her eyes.
Xu Wan's eyes shone brightly as well.
She had long noticed that Su Zimo was different from the rest.
However, even she hadn't expected that person to have hidden his strength so deeply!
The burly man behind Xu Wan said in a low voice, "Miss, your eyes are sharp."
Xu Wan shook her head gently. "Uncle Liu, I've still underestimated him."
The burly man addressed as Uncle Liu pondered for a moment before sending a voice transmission with his spirit consciousness, "Miss, I know that you want to befriend him and recruit him."
"However, from the looks of it, that's too risky."
Xu Wan was silent.
She could understand what Uncle Liu was implying.
Indeed, Su Zimo had immense potential.
That was the reason why she wanted to befriend Su Zimo even though she knew that he was being hunted down by the Wolf Army.
However, Su Zimo had offended two of the eight major factions, Xueyanggu and Mystic Yin Mountain. At the same time, he was on bad terms with one of the four bandits, the Wolf Army.
If they befriended or recruited this person, it would definitely bring trouble to Double Dragon Sect and they would be implicated!
At that time, Double Dragon Sect would have to face three top factions because of a single person!
No matter how she looked at it, that wasn't a wise move.
Xu Wan sighed internally.
No matter how willing she was emotionally, she was the daughter of the Sect Master of Double Dragon Sect after all and had to consider the many members of Double Dragon Sect.
She could only follow her logic and give up on Su Zimo.
On the other side.
On a seat high up in the palace, Commander Liu's expression was dark as he turned to look at Yan Fei beside him and said slowly, "You knew about this long ago. That's the reason why you dared to make this bet with me!"
At that moment, Commander Liu gradually realized what was going on.
Yan Fei's expression was uneasy as he said, "I did receive news that the Xueyanggu army was intercepted by a group of people and was completely wiped out. The leader was extremely young and had green robes and black hair. However, I don't know who he is."
After pausing for a moment, Yan Fei continued, "However, Su Zimo once took out a storage bag in order to bid for that Numinous Treasure fragment."
"I asked and found out that there were a thousand Mystic-grade Dharma treasures in that storage bag."
Commander Liu's expression was mocking as he played along with Yan Fei. "How could an ordinary cultivator, a Rank 5 Mystic Immortal, possess a thousand Mystic-grade Dharma treasures?"
"Therefore, based on the information you received, you concluded that the green-robed, black-haired cultivator was Su Zimo!"
Yan Fei shook his head and chuckled. "There are many green-robed, black-haired cultivators. How could I conclude based on the information I received? I merely made a bet."
"If this person is the same person who intercepted Xueyanggu, he must have some tricks up his sleeves and has a chance of withstanding 50 moves from Ding Yu."
At this point, Yan Fei heaved a long sigh and continued, "However, even I did not expect that this person would be able to kill Ding Yu with a single palm strike!"
When he heard that, Commander Liu's heart was filled with rage that he had nowhere to vent.
It could not be considered as Yan Fei setting him up.
Firstly, he was the one who suggested the bet.
Secondly, Yan Fei did not dare to conclude that Su Zimo was the one who intercepted the Xueyanggu army – that was a risk in itself.
However, no matter what, he had suffered a huge setback today!
The root of everything was the green-robed cultivator below!
Commander Liu's gaze landed on Su Zimo once more with a chilling killing intent that sent chills down one's spine!
He was prepared to strike!
