623: Chapter 623: Admit Defeat?
Sword Shattering the Starry River!
Just the thought alone made everyone shiver uncontrollably.
They had just experienced it once; if it happened again, it was likely that all the cultivators in the arena, except for a few masters, would perish here!
Huang Sishi and Shi Budong exchanged glances, both thinking the same thing.
In an instant, their hearts felt like they were being engulfed by tumultuous waves.
Both knew well that if Bai Xiaofan truly unleashed that sword strike, they would surely die without a doubt.
Let alone their current heavily injured state, even at their peak, there would be no chance of victory.
Just as everyone’s eyes were filled with fear looking at Bai Xiaofan,
Bai Xiaofan’s left hand gently brushed over the willow branch…
In a flash, a green starlight emerged on the willow branch.
Moreover, around Bai Xiaofan’s body, there were faint traces of lightning flickering.
Crackle crackle!
Hearing the crisp sound of electric current, Huang Sishi and Shi Budong became afraid.
Everyone fears death, and these two were no exception!
“Bai…
Bai Xiaofan, I think there’s no need to continue this fight today, we both concede!”
Huang Sishi hurriedly extended his hand, saying to Bai Xiaofan.
“Right, right, right, we concede, we can take our sect’s disciples and leave Taiyi Gate now!”
Hearing Huang Sishi’s words, Shi Budong, who was a beat slower to react, also hurriedly voiced his agreement.
Seeing the two of them concede so eagerly, the crowd didn’t feel any contempt.
Because at this moment, if it were them standing at the place of Huang Sishi and Shi Budong,
they would definitely choose to concede immediately as well.
Pride is nothing compared to the importance of life!
“They conceded?
They actually conceded!”
Ye Ling, incredulous, looked at the two who conceded, her voice filled with surprise and joy, even with a hint of disbelief.
“Yes, we won, it’s all thanks to Mr.
Bai that we won.
Our Taiyi Gate doesn’t have to be handed over to another sect, our Taiyi Gate disciples don’t have to die!”
Shen Yi nodded vigorously, her eyes filled with admiration and joy as she looked at Bai Xiaofan.
The disciples of Taiyi Gate were also overjoyed, wishing they could jump up and cheer loudly.
They had thought they were undoubtedly going to die today, but unexpectedly a man appeared out of nowhere, step by step, and killed all their enemies.
He even pulled them, the disciples, and the Taiyi Gate back from the brink of death, allowing them to live!
Who would choose death when they could live?
“You two want to concede?”
Bai Xiaofan turned his head to look at Huang Sishi and Shi Budong, asking in an even tone, his voice betraying no hint of his thoughts.
“Yes, yes, yes, we want to concede, we admit we can’t beat you, we’re no match for you!”
Shi Budong and Huang Sishi nodded repeatedly, urgently admitting defeat.
“That won’t do, I was intending to use you two for a teaching moment, to have Shen Yi, this dull girl, learn a lesson.
If you two concede, whom shall I use this willow branch on?”
However, just when everyone thought Bai Xiaofan would accept their concession and let them leave Taiyi Gate with their sect’s disciples, Bai Xiaofan shook his head slightly.
He then spoke in all seriousness, clearly refusing to accept their concession.
Seeing Bai Xiaofan refuse their concession, the crowd gasped in astonishment.
It was as if they couldn’t believe their own ears.
Bai Xiaofan actually refused; how could he refuse without a second thought?
“So, so, so…
what do you want?”
Even Huang Sanshi panicked upon hearing Bai Xiaofan’s words.
Originally, in his view, once the two of them admitted defeat, Bai Xiaofan would, in consideration of the Huangquan Sect and Taiyue Sect’s faces, spare their lives and let them go.
Now it seems, his thinking was too naive.
Or more precisely, he had underestimated Bai Xiaofan’s bravery and ability!
After all, if Bai Xiaofan dared to slay two elders of the Five-Star Sect in succession, why would he care about taking the lives of two more?
“I don’t really want anything, just that this willow switch in my hand needs to be swung.
Either the two of you pick up your weapons and fight with all your might, or find me two cultivators above the Nascent Soul Stage to test the might of my move!”
Bai Xiaofan smiled innocently, looking harmless as he eyed Huang Sanshi and Shi Budong, then continued.
“Don’t be afraid.
I’m very reasonable and respect others’ opinions.
I even won the award of ‘Five Good Youth’ in elementary school!”
Hearing Bai Xiaofan’s words, everyone couldn’t help but roll their eyes dramatically.
The hell, you’re reasonable!
If you were reasonable, then there probably wouldn’t be any violence in this world, and it would be all peace!
Have you forgotten about Lin An, whom you killed?
Forgotten about Wang Chong, whom you slapped to death?
And Liang Cheng, whose skull you crushed underfoot, not to mention Liang Chao, who you split into two?
Truly speechless.
How can there be such shameless people in this world?
Especially Bai Xiaofan’s line about winning the ‘Five Good Youth’ award in elementary school!
What the hell is that?
You’re still talking about something from elementary school?
Huang Sanshi and Shi Budong kept cursing Bai Xiaofan inwardly as well.
Damn it, you’re clearly just bullying people.
On this martial arts field, how many Nascent Soul Stage experts are there in total?
And you’ve already killed two of them.
Now asking them to find two Nascent Soul Stage experts for you to whip this switch at?
This is frankly harder than climbing to the heavens!
Suddenly, a gleam of excitement flashed in Huang Sanshi’s eyes.
Supporting his severely injured body, Huang Sanshi slowly turned around to look at Liu Yang and Guan Hui, who had been sitting nearby watching the show.
Following Huang Sanshi’s movements, Shi Budong and the others also locked their gaze on the two men.
Aren’t these two Nascent Soul Stage experts?
Liu Yang and Guan Hui, noticing the malicious intent in everyone’s eyes, hurriedly stood up.
At this moment, both of them felt an illusion as though they had become sheep while the people around them, Huang Sanshi, Shi Budong, and others, had all turned into big bad wolves!
Eagerly eyeing them, intending to push them into Bai Xiaofan’s maw, as food…
“What are you going to do?
We are from the Taiyi Sect!”
Liu Yang had never felt so confident when claiming to be from the Taiyi Sect as he did at this moment.
Even when the real person Taiyi was alive, he had never felt this way.
Sure enough, after hearing Liu Yang’s words, Huang Sanshi and Shi Budong frowned slightly, then turned to look at Bai Xiaofan.
This time Bai Xiaofan was fighting on behalf of the Taiyi Sect.
If Bai Xiaofan didn’t agree to them touching Liu Yang and Guan Hui, then they truly didn’t dare act rashly.
After all, the willow switch was still in Bai Xiaofan’s hand!
