Chapter 451 - 451 Going Back on His Words
451 Going Back on His Words
In the courtyard, everyone’s eyes widened and they looked at Gu Xi with shock. Some people even pinched themselves secretly, trying to use pain to prove that everything that had just happened was real.
Unsurprisingly, the pain hit him. All of this was real.
“How could this be…”
“How can this Divine Palm win in the same cultivation realm?”
“Could it be that the Clan Master went easy on us?”
Everyone’s eyes landed on Zhan Wushuang.
At this moment, Zhan Wushuang was still standing quietly at his original spot. Although he had lost this battle for the first time, he did not show much emotion on the surface.
It was like… He really seemed to have gone easy on Gu Xi.
But whether he had gone easy on Gu Xi or not, he knew it in his heart, and Gu Xi knew it even better.
“Little Friend’s Divine Palm has indeed exceeded my expectations.”
Zhan Wushuang did not care about the crowd’s discussion, and he did not choose to explain what had just happened at this moment. His vision was fixed on Gu Xi, who was not far away from him. He continued, “Although it’s powerful, I believe that anyone with a discerning eye can see that your Valiant Heavenly Divine Palm and my Zhan Clan’s Valiant Heavenly Divine Fist are similar in some ways.”
“The world is so big, it’s normal for two similar spirit techniques to appear.”
Gu Xi grinned with a strange expression. He thought about the meaning of Zhan Wushuang’s words and said, ” Zhan Clan Master, there’s a hidden meaning in your words!”
Zhan Wushuang laughed and said in a deep voice, “As long as Little Friend is willing to hand over the Valiant Heavenly Divine Palm, my Zhan Clan will definitely do our best to satisfy all your wishes. Furthermore, after this matter, I, Zhan Wushuang, will owe you a favor. How about it?”
Zhan Wushuang’s words were sonorous and forceful, and his expression was serious.
From the fight with Gu Xi just now, he could clearly feel that there was almost no difference between the Divine Palm and the Divine Fist, but the former’s power was incomparable to the latter!
As long as he could keep the Valiant Heavenly Divine Palm in his pocket, and one day, after he had studied it thoroughly and distributed it to the disciples of the sect, it would greatly increase the overall strength of the entire Zhan Clan!
Therefore, this Divine Palm could not be missed!
Zhan Wushuang’s words caused everyone to exclaim in shock.
Putting aside the fact that the entire Zhan Clan was trying their best to fulfill his wish, just making Zhan Wushuang owe him a favor was already harder than ascending to the Heavens!
Who was Zhan Wushuang? Not only was he the current Clan Master of the Zhan Clan, a first-rate force in the Eastern Continent, he was also a true-blue Great Saint!
If handing over the Valiant Heavenly Divine Palm could allow one to form a relationship with the Zhan Clan and Zhan Wushuang, he believed that no one will hesitate to hand it over.
In an instant, everyone’s eyes turned to Gu Xi.
“It seems like the Zhan Clan Master is not prepared to fulfill his promise.”
Gu Xi squinted his eyes slightly and said coldly.
He had never expected that Zhan Wushuang would go against their bet in front of so many people from the zhan Clan. From this, it could be seen how much importance Zhan Wushuang placed on this Valiant Heavenly Divine Palm.
Zhan Wushuang slowly shook his head and spoke in a deep voice, “No, as long as Little Friend hands over the Divine Palm, my Zhan Clan will naturally admit defeat in the competition. ”
He knew very well that although there were still three people from the Zhan Clan’s team who had yet to go on stage, Zhan Hong and Zhan Ning had already been eliminated. The remaining three would definitely not be a match for Gu Xi. Since he could not change the outcome no matter what, he could take the initiative and find a good excuse to admit defeat and end it.
Even though the Zhan Clan would not be able to participate in this competition, if they could obtain the Valiant Heavenly Divine Palm, then this competition would not be as important anymore.
Pa pa pa-
After hearing Zhan Wushuang’s shameless words, Gu Xi could not help but clap.
“As expected of the Zhan Clan Master. I believe that the Zhan Clan’s development to this day is largely due to the Zhan Clan Master’s shamelessness, right?”
Gu Xi’s sarcastic praise made everyone’s face change.
“You bastard! You actually dare to speak to the Clan Master in such a manner!”
One of the hot-tempered men berated Gu Xi.
Gu Xi acted as if he did not hear the scolding. His pitch-black eyes were fixed on Zhan Wushuang as he chuckled, “What if I don’t?”
Upon hearing this, Zhan Wushuang laughed and said, “Little Friend Gu, why do you have to make the situation so ugly? As long as you hand over the spirit skill…”
“I’m asking you, What if I don’t hand it over?”
Gu Xi spoke again and interrupted Zhan Wushuang’s words.
Zhan Wushuang’s face gradually turned dark, and his expression became more and more unsightly. He said in a deep voice, “Little Friend, if you insist on doing things your way, then don’t blame my Zhan Clan for bullying you.”
As soon as he said that, the Zhan Clan elders present immediately understood what he meant. One by one, powerful figures appeared from the crowd and surrounded Gu Xi.
Even in such a situation, Gu Xi’s expression did not change. Instead, he had a faint smile on his face from the beginning to the end, and said softly, “It’s said that the Zhan Clan reveres fighting. After seeing you duel today, I didn’t think that you would have a way of going back on your words and bullying the weak.”
Although Gu Xi did not swear, her undisguised sarcasm made everyone even angrier.
“Obediently hand over the spirit skill and you will be fine. Furthermore, you can become a friend of my Zhan Clan. So many people have dreamed of this opportunity, but you still don’t know how to cherish it. Now that you’ve come to this point, you can only blame yourself for not knowing what’s good for you.”
The hot-tempered man from before chuckled, and spiritual energy surged around him.
“Friend?” Hearing this, Gu Xi could not help but sneer. “Friends with you guys?”
Gu Xi had a strange expression on his face, as if he had just heard the funniest joke in the world.
Seeing Gu Xi belittling and ridiculing his Zhan Clan in such a manner, the hot-tempered man could no longer tolerate it. With a loud shout, he stomped his foot and appeared in front of Gu Xi. Immediately, he raised his hand and sent a palm strike toward Gu Xi’s face without any fancy moves.
“I’m afraid you’re the ones who don’t know what’s good for you!”
Gu Xi snorted coldly as his eyes reflected the palm in front of him.
The next moment, with him as the center, thousands of spiritual patterns spread out. In just an instant, the Mountain-back Array had already been condensed and started to operate.
The sudden heavy pressure caused the man’s body to sink, and he lost his balance for a short time. Gu Xi accurately seized this fleeting opportunity and slapped the man’s abdomen hard while he was unprepared.
Bang! Bang!
With a muffled sound, the man’s figure flew backward and smashed into the courtyard wall.
