"He's dead. I killed him."
A few simple words coldly rang out in the huge drill ground, causing the entire drill ground to instantly erupt into an uproar.
"He killed Xia Mang's brother?"
"Yes, yes, I remember now. More than 200 years ago, Xia Yan fought with a Divine Realm expert on Cercis Island and was defeated by him in three moves. Later, Xia Yan died. It's said that he was killed by that Divine Realm expert in revenge. That Divine Realm expert's name is Jian Wushuang!"
"Jian Wushuang?"
"It's him, it's him!"
"No wonder Xia Mang went to him directly. He's Jian Wushuang, the Jian Wushuang who killed Xia Yan more than 200 years ago."
Countless exclamations rose one after another.
Everyone looked at Jian Wushuang with a trace of horror.
When Xia Yan, the second son of the Xia Clan, died, the Xia Clan was enraged and set off a storm in the Tang of the East. Over the years, the Xia Clan had been searching for the whereabouts of that Divine Realm expert, but to no avail.
Who would have thought that the Divine Realm expert who killed Xia Yan had not only broken through to the Eternal Realm, but also came to participate in the Selection Ceremony?
So open and aboveboard?
Wasn't he worried that the Xia Clan would kill him?
"So it was you." Xia Mang's face turned cold, and the killing intent in his eyes was undisguised.
"So what if I did?" Jian Wushuang glanced at Xia Mang.
"Very good, I like your arrogance." Xia Mang smiled coldly. "Don't worry. After all, this is the Selection Ceremony. With Empress Leng here, the Xia Clan won't kill you directly. But once the Selection Ceremony is over, you'll definitely die!"
"No one can save you. It doesn't matter if it's the Pill Venerate who recommended you this time or your senior brother, Blood Saber Supremacy.
"It's not up to you whether they can protect me or not," Jian Wushuang said coldly.
"If I say you'll die, you'll die." Xia Mang said in a low voice, as if he had already decided Jian Wushuang's fate.
"Really? I'll be waiting. "Jian Wushuang's expression remained impassive, as if he didn't take Xia Mang's words to heart.
Around the drill ground, many people were secretly anticipating the outcome of the heated exchange between Jian Wushuang and Xia Mang.
In the Void in front of the Drill Ground, there was a huge grandstand that was quietly suspended. There were many long narrow tables, and in front of the tables, there were at least dozens of people sitting there.
These people were either the leaders of some large clans or powerful forces, or some extremely powerful solitary experts.
Jian Wushuang's Senior Brother Xue Lingtian and Alchemy Master were among them.
These experts were able to see everything that was happening below clearly.
"Haha, the smell of gunpowder is quite strong. But that's right. After all, Jian Wushuang killed Xia Mang's younger brother."
"I actually admire this kid. He clearly knows that the Xia Clan has been using every possible means to track down his whereabouts. It's fine if he doesn't find a place to hide, but he actually dares to participate in this Selection Ceremony so openly. Does he think that his senior brother or Senior Dan can protect him?"
"Alchemy Master has great power, but as far as I know, Jian Wushuang shouldn't have a close relationship with him. Alchemy Master won't really fall out with the Xia Clan for him. As for his Senior Brother Master Blood Saber … Tsk tsk, one of the 18 Masters of the Void Temple, his identity can't be underestimated. But the enmity between Jian Wushuang and the Xia Clan has nothing to do with the Void Temple, so it's impossible for the Void Temple to interfere. Master Blood Saber alone is not enough to deal with the Xia Clan."
The experts in front of the long narrow table were casually chatting and laughing. There was nothing taboo in their conversation. The people of the Xia Clan and Paragon Master Blood Saber were all listening in.
Two Dao Masters of the Xia Clan were sitting in front of the two long narrow tables closest to the center.
One of them was Elder He, whom Jian Wushuang had met on the Cercis Island. The other one had messy black hair and dark skin, like a savage. He was the Great Elder of the Xia Clan, Xia Yu.
Hearing the conversation of the experts around him, Xia Yu snorted. "He's just a junior who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. How dare he kill a member of the Xia Clan? He must die!"
But as soon as Xia Yu finished speaking, Xue Lingtian, who happened to be sitting in front of Xia Yu's noodle table, narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "Elder Xia Yu, why are you so angry?"
"Master Blood Saber, Jian Wushuang killed the Second Master of the Xia Clan. We've already shown you enough respect by not uprooting his Gumen. Don't fail to appreciate our kindness," Xia Yu said coldly.
"So what if I fail to appreciate your kindness? What? Do you want to kill me too? " Xue Lingtian sneered. "Xia Yu, I'm not looking down on you. I'm just sitting here and I won't resist. If you have the guts, just do it."
After saying that, Xue Lingtian didn't forget to pick up the wine glass on the long narrow table and take a sip.
Hearing this, Xia Yu frowned.
Kill Xue Lingtian?
He wouldn't dare to do it even if he had two guts.
Not to mention him, even the Family Master of the Xia Clan and the Ancestor behind the Xia Clan wouldn't dare to kill Xue Lingtian so openly.
After all, no force in the Eternal World could bear the anger of the Void Temple.
"Humph, I don't dare to kill you, but I dare to kill Jian Wushuang. I don't believe that anyone can save him today," Xia Yu snorted coldly.
"Let's wait and see." Xue Lingtian didn't want to say more to Xia Yu.
"Blood Saber, it seems that your Junior Brother will be in a lot of trouble today." Next to Master Blood Saber, there was a white-haired old man. The old man had a smile on his face, which made him look very amiable.
Like Xue Lingtian, the white-haired old man was also one of the 18 Masters of the Void Temple.
"Just a little trouble." Xue Lingtian smiled faintly.
In front of another long narrow table, there was a thin old man with a ruddy face and white hair. Next to the thin old man was a girl with aquamarine hair.
They were the Lord of Cercis Island and his daughter, Lin Wan.
"Father, Jian Wushuang offended Xia Yan because of me. If the Xia Clan attacks him, you have to help him," Lin Wan said.
"The Xia Clan is the number one overlord in the Tang of the East. I can't afford to offend them." The Lord of Cercis Island shook his head.
"Father …" Lin Wan immediately became anxious.
"All right, all right. Don't worry. Just wait and see. Today's matter is not as simple as you think." The Lord of Cercis Island waved his hand impatiently.
Lin Wan didn't want to say more.
At this moment, a beautiful and arrogant figure, surrounded by a large group of people, walked slowly from the palace in the distance.
