The news of the life-and-death duel between Prince Zhong Kui and the Nineteenth Prince quickly spread.
In no time, the Central Plains shook!
Prince Zhong Kui was carefully nurtured by King Yama’s Palace, not only with extraordinary talent but also extremely powerful, possessing the Ethereal Ghost Physique, capable of devouring ghosts and demons.
Moreover, Prince Zhong Kui was at the Saint Realm Seventh Layer, yet his combat power was comparable to a Great Saint, ranking fifth on the Hidden Dragon List as a monstrous genius.
Among the young generation in the Central Plains, only four could overpower him, proving his strength and fearsome nature.
The fame of the Nineteenth Prince, however, was not weaker than Prince Zhong Kui. He was the fastest rising dark horse of this year, even rivaling the previous Green Lotus Fairy.
Since the Sword Dao Assembly, this Nineteenth Prince shone brilliantly, even striking against King Yama’s Palace, causing the Equal King to die because of him. Afterwards, he went to Liuzhou to participate in the martial arts matrimonial contest, winning the championship and becoming the prospective son-in-law of the Ancient Liu Family.
This time in the Heavenly Medicine Blessed Land, it was said he passed the Saintly Tribulation Thunder, slaying Saints and establishing a fierce reputation as Black Demon.
Although the Nineteenth Prince never admitted to being the Black Demon, nor was there evidence to prove it, in the eyes of the people, the Nineteenth Prince was the Black Demon.
The Nineteenth Prince alone might not be a match for Prince Zhong Kui, but if he assumed the identity of Black Demon, it was uncertain.
Who doesn’t know that Black Demon lastly got his hands on a White Tiger Immortality Elixir, perhaps transcending beyond the imagination of the world.
Prince Zhong Kui VS Nineteenth Prince!
This news, once released, immediately ignited the entire Central Plains, drawing the attention of countless people.
“The New Demon-Slaying Alliance has been dormant for three months, finally taking action against the Nineteenth Prince, and it’s a life-and-death duel, now there will be excitement to watch!”
“Prince Zhong Kui is incredibly strong, not comparable to the average Imperial Son or Emperor’s Daughter; the Nineteenth Prince, though strong, still has a significant gap in strength. Unless he really is Black Demon, this battle is fraught with mortal peril!”
“Everyone is saying the Nineteenth Prince is Black Demon, but after this battle, it will surely be clarified. If he really is Black Demon, this battle can’t be fought without demon cultivation techniques. If not, then the Nineteenth Prince truly faces the danger of falling.”
Discussions were rampant across the Central Plains, with numerous strong individuals getting wind and heading toward Great Name Lake.
Those with strength naturally wanted to witness this world-shocking battle firsthand.
Prince Zhong Kui and the Nineteenth Prince, representing the pinnacle of young talents, both backed by powerful immortal forces. Regardless of who lives or dies in this battle, it will affect the entire Central Plains’ dynamics, perhaps even sparking an immortal war.
Huzhou, originally just an ordinary Daozhou, became the focus of the Central Plains due to this life-and-death duel.
Liuzhou, Ancient Liu Family!
This time on the Heavenly Medicine Blessed Land journey, the Heir of the Liu Family and Lu Yunxian did not return, marking a heavy blow to the entire Ancient Liu Family.
Now the atmosphere in the Ancient Liu Family was oppressive, suffocating, as if the end was imminent.
Yet at this moment, a figure walked out of the Liu Divine’s Void Realm, leaving Wanliu City, heading toward Huzhou.
“Fool, idiot, blockhead, knowing you’re outmatched yet still accepting the battle, are you really courting death?”
With hair cascading like a waterfall, a mesmerizing silhouette, Liu Xu activated a leaf-like boat, instantly transforming into a celestial light bridge, crossing the sky toward Great Name Lake.
At this moment, Liu Xu bit down on a silver tooth, her brows filled with worry and concern.
Upon hearing about the life-and-death duel, she immediately decided to leave the Liu Family to watch the battle at Great Name Lake.
Though the distance from Liuzhou to Huzhou was significant, requiring seven days to reach, only by paying a heavy price to utilize the inter-Daoweb teleportation array. For Su Han, she couldn’t care for much else.
Previously, she had held affection for Su Han; during the last martial arts matrimonial contest, she became sulky, and after Su Han won the championship, she swore to sever ties and no longer contact.
But now, hearing the news of the life-and-death duel, she couldn’t sit still, wanting to watch the battle. If there’s an opportunity, stopping it would be best.
“Big idiot, you mustn’t die; if you die, who will I find to collect debts?”
Tears sparkled in Liu Xu’s large, beautiful eyes, her heart tense with worry, but her words remained tough.
Over the years, Su Han was the only man she had feelings for; even though this was merely her unrequited affection, she didn’t wish for anything to happen to Su Han.
Swoosh!
The speed of the leaf-like boat was incredibly fast, and Liu Xu soon arrived at the nearest inter-Daoweb teleportation point.
Without hesitation, Liu Xu traded an abundance of treasures for a teleport quota, but such inter-Daoweb teleportation arrays could only cross one Daozhou. To travel from Liuzhou to Huzhou required teleporting over a dozen times, exhausting all of Liu Xu’s assets in one go.
But at this moment, Liu Xu did not hesitate a bit, continuously teleporting across Daozhou, just to arrive before the duel!
…
Yuezhou, located in the northeast direction of the Central Plains, is a medium-sized Daozhou, but here lies an immortal force.
This immortal force has a notorious name, for it was beaten to submission a century ago by King Yama’s Palace—the Nangong Imperial Clan.
The Nangong Imperial Clan has long declined; even with the Nangong Great Emperor’s presence, recovering its former glory is highly difficult.
Nowadays, the entire Nangong Imperial Clan numbers but a thousand, and powerful individuals are few and far between. Only the Nangong Great Emperor and Prince Nangong can uphold their facade.
“Father, win or lose, I must see it firsthand. If Brother Yang wins, we will all rejoice; if Brother Yang is defeated, I also get to witness Prince Zhong Kui’s methods!”
Prince Nangong, tall and stalwart, with a resolute face, bade farewell to his father, leaving the clan grounds to watch the battle at Great Name Lake.
The animosity between the Nangong Imperial Clan and King Yama’s Palace is irreconcilable. As an Imperial Son, Prince Nangong has always targeted King Yama’s Palace. Now, with the Death Empress Meng Po dead, Prince Zhong Kui is the most important among King Yama’s Palace’s young generation.
In any event, he doesn’t want to miss this battle. If Su Han wins, with Prince Zhong Kui killed, it will be a joyous occasion for him. If Su Han is defeated, he can also leverage this battle to understand Prince Zhong Kui better, preparing for future confrontations.
Dressed in black battle armor, wielding a Barbaric Copper Holy Staff, Prince Nangong advanced toward Great Name Lake like a fierce tiger unleashed, menacingly.
This time in the Heavenly Medicine Blessed Land, although he didn’t obtain immortality medicine, he acquired numerous medicine kings and medicine saints, achieving power at the Saint Realm Third Layer.
But this time, he is going as a spectator.
“Brother Yang, may you triumph decisively, swordly slaying Prince Zhong Kui!”
Prince Nangong, tied closely with Su Han, prayed for him in his heart.
…
That day, countless mightiest from all over the Central Plains rushed to Great Name Lake, to witness this world-shocking battle firsthand.
Prince Zhong Kui and the Nineteenth Prince, who will live, who will die?
