Chapter 608: Faith in the Heart
I didn't hesitate for the challenge of Poison Rose, I just accepted it, and my tone was calm and indifferent, and it sounded like there were no mood swings. It seems that fighting poisonous roses is an ordinary thing that does not need to be thought about by the brain.
It's just that I was indifferent, but the others on the scene exploded. My unhesitating response caused an uproar at once, and both my brothers and the Blood Butterfly people were deeply shocked by me.
In the eyes of the people of the Blood Butterfly, I am a despicable and cunning villain, and they must all think that I can win the dragonfly not by real ability, but by stealing and playing tricks, it is a fluke, and I am completely invincible. I can destroy dozens of masters of blood butterflies in a group, relying on the strength of the crowd, and even more so than the victory. Therefore, everyone in the Blood Butterfly is not convinced by me, only contempt and resentment.
However, it was me, a villain who was looked down upon by everyone, who actually took on the life and death challenge of the poisonous rose on the spot, how could this not surprise the Blood Butterfly everyone. You must know that Poison Rose is the Dharma King of the Blood Butterfly, an existence above ten thousand people under one person, whether it is majesty or her martial arts, it is the object of everyone's admiration, it is an unattainable existence, and it is not at all something that I, a fledgling boy, can hope for. Therefore, my response to the battle is completely incomprehensible to the people of the Blood Butterfly.
Of course, after they were shocked, they were more ridiculed and laughed, they all thought that I was so arrogant that I was blind, I couldn't even see the strength of the poisonous rose, and I dared to fight, I was killing myself.
All sorts of sarcasm filled the Blood Butterfly team, who laughed at my ignorance and despised my blindness.
And many of my brothers are also very puzzled by my response. Just like at noon, I boldly accepted the dragonfly's challenge, and the brothers were also full of worries about me, although in the end, I won the dragonfly, and the brothers knew that my strength was indeed not as simple as they thought, but no matter what, the opponent I am facing now is Poison Rose. Poisonous Rose is not comparable to the level of dragonflies, and the brothers all know what kind of terrifying situation the strength of Poisonous Rose is.
So, this time, my brothers absolutely thought that I was hot-headed and self-willed. They couldn't help but persuade me to calm down and not fall for the other party's tricks.
I turned a deaf ear to all voices, my expression was still calm, my gaze was still resolute, and I stared straight at the poisonous rose, unmoved.
At this time, the poisonous rose was also completely shocked by me. Perhaps, she provoked a life-and-death battle against me, just to suppress my arrogance and slap me in the face. Or, she resented me too much and was too angry, so she couldn't help but put forward a contest, wanting to use this life-and-death battle to kill me. But no matter what, she couldn't believe that I would say yes to her so readily.
After being stunned for a long time, Poison Rose slowly spoke, and said to me in amazement, "Are you sure?"
In the eyes of the poisonous rose, there were obviously four words written in it, unbelievable. She was amazed at how I had accepted her challenge.
Faced with the doubts of the poisonous rose, my face did not change, and I replied to her sonorously: "Of course I am sure, I Wu Lai will speak, and I will never break my word!"
My gaze, resolute, and my tone, sonorous and powerful, represent my unshakable determination.
At this time, everyone on the scene knew that I was not angry for a while, let alone quick to speak, but really prepared to fight to the death with Poison Rose.
Grandpa Han behind me was startled when he saw me so resolute, and hurriedly stepped forward, pulled me and said, "Wu Lai, don't mess around, you are not the opponent of Poison Rose, don't mess around!"
Obviously, Grandpa Han knows my strength, and he knows the strength of Poison Rose, and he is desperate to dissuade me, and he must think that I have no chance of winning against Poison Rose.
I tilted my head slightly, looked at Grandpa Han, and said solemnly, "Whether I win or lose, I want to give it a try." If you don't try, how do you know if you can beat or not?"
After hearing this, Grandpa Han's brows immediately furrowed deeply, and he said worriedly: "But you should know the gap between you and Poison Rose, do you think you are sure to win?"
Before practicing Zhongyiquan, I will definitely lose, and, after practicing Zhongyiquan, I still don't have much certainty, after all, I haven't really exerted the power of Zhongyiquan, I don't know if I have a chance to win the poisonous rose with the strength of the sky.
After brewing for two seconds, I finally shook my head at Grandpa Han and said, "I'm not sure, but Grandpa Han, do you think that with our current overall strength, we can be sure to defeat the army of thousands of blood butterflies in front of us?"
Hearing this, Grandpa Han immediately realized that there was something in my words, he didn't think much about it, and hurriedly asked me, "What do you mean?"
I put my mouth to Grandpa Han's ear and whispered, "You must know that with our current comprehensive strength, we can't fight the blood butterfly army at all. Moreover, now that the combination of Rose Lily has come together, once they join forces, they will be unparalleled in the world, you said, even you are not sure to deal with the two of them joining forces, just ask, who else can we stop them? More importantly, Poison Rose is a smart person, she has just emphasized that I am a small person, and I killed the dragonfly by sneak attack, and the purpose of her saying this is to get rid of the shadow of her team's defeat on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is to deepen the hatred of the Blood Butterfly people towards me and stimulate their morale and anger. Under such circumstances, as soon as the battle starts, our side will definitely lose. If I can kill her in a duel, it will not only remove the invincible combination of Rose Lily, but also improve our morale and completely suppress the arrogance of the other party. That way, our odds are here!"
To this day, of course, I am not the reckless and impulsive Wu Lai at the beginning, Poison Rose wants to provoke me by provoking me, obviously it will not work, the reason why I agreed to Poison Rose's appointment to fight is because this is the only chance to give our war group victory.
I'm not sure if I'll be able to fight Poison Rose, but I'm pretty sure that if I back down, then my entire team will have no way out, and maybe they'll be wiped out, which is not the outcome I want.
And I accept the challenge, if I win the poisonous rose, our team still has the possibility of turning defeat into victory, so, no matter what, I, as the coach, can't back down.
In addition, at noon, I let the poisonous rose escape, this thing has been stuck in my heart, like a stalk, if I don't get rid of her, my heart will be very difficult to settle. This life-and-death duel is just a reasonable opportunity to kill her, and I must seize it.
After listening to my analysis, Grandpa Han's eyes slowly changed, and he seemed to be moved, and his opinion of me gradually changed. After pondering for a while, he spoke up to me: "But the premise of doing this is that you can have the strength to defeat Poison Rose, have you ever thought about what to do if you lose? If something happens to you, won't your brothers be wiped out?"
Indeed, since it is a decisive battle, you must bear the consequences of losing. If, at the beginning, the Blood Butterfly just used me to torture my father, it may not kill me, but now, I killed the nephew of the Black Widow, and slaughtered many masters of the Blood Butterfly, and forced the poisonous rose to almost commit suicide, the poisonous rose at this moment must be eager to cut me with a thousand knives, she will never show mercy to me, I am going to lose, she will inevitably put me to death.
It's not a pity for me to die, but if I die, my brother won't have a way to live. The dragons have no leader, the commander of a team is destroyed, the whole team is basically finished, and in the end, maybe all the brothers will really be buried with me.
Thinking of this, my heart couldn't stop trembling, and two voices were torn fiercely in my head.
After a long pause, I raised my head suddenly, looked at Grandpa Han firmly, and said, "There is no way back, I can only make a desperate bet." Don't worry, Grandpa Han, believe me, I won't lose!"
When I said this, my eyes swelled with confidence that I had never felt before. People, once in adversity, will stimulate their own potential, my body's potential, has been fully stimulated, suddenly, I have absolute self-confidence, Grandpa Han seems to be infected by my self-confidence, he did not stop me anymore.
However, Grandpa Han didn't stop it, but the others couldn't be indifferent, especially the ponytail, she was very worried, and she also came up and persuaded me: "Wu Lai, you don't have to fight with your own life. Just fight like this, we still have a chance to win!"
I shook my head categorically and said, "No, it's too risky to fight directly, we can't afford to fight, we can't afford to fail!"
Hearing this, Ponytail wanted to say something more, but on the other side, Poison Rose had already walked to the center of the field, and she suddenly yelled at me: "Wu Lai, since you are so bold and not afraid of death, I will give you a chance to prove yourself, I hope you don't let me down!"
After I accepted the challenge, Poison Rose was also on her team's side, whispering softly to Wild Lily, and it was estimated that my calm response to the battle also made Poison Rose a little unsteady, so she didn't stand up immediately, but discussed with Wild Lily. Now, they should discuss the results, and Poison Rose will come to the center of the room to call me out.
As soon as I heard the voice of the poisonous rose, my fighting spirit was instantly stimulated, and an invisible force filled my body. I didn't hesitate any longer, just turned my head, looked at the ponytail, and said deeply to her: "Trust me!"
Three simple words, conveying the belief in my heart, although the ponytail does not want me to take risks, although I am worried about my safety, but she is a sensible girl, she did not stop me again, just nodded to me, and said: "Come on!"
I smiled lightly, and then took a step, walking to the center of the field where the two armies were facing each other, and came to the front of Poison Rose.
When I walked on the field, my brothers still kept persuading me, and even tried to hold me, but I was drunk, but I was drunk, obviously, the brothers still think that I am sending me to death by doing this, and they don't want to see me die.
When Poison Rose saw this scene, she couldn't help but joke: "Wu Lai, I can say in advance, this is a life-and-death duel, that is to say, in the competition, there must be a death, and in the process of the competition, people on both sides must not come out to interfere, can you do it?"
I grinned slightly, nonchalant, and said, "Of course!"
After that, I turned my head directly and shouted at my brother with the spirit of a king: "Listen, everyone, this is a fair duel between me and Poison Rose, in the process of martial arts, no matter what happens, even if I die, everyone can't come out to interfere, remember, this is an order!"
No matter what, I am the leader of the Loyalty Alliance, and my brother will obey my instructions even if he is unwilling.
After the order, I turned my head again, looked at the poisonous rose, and said in a light tone: "My brothers will definitely listen to me, they have always obeyed my orders." I just don't know, you blood butterflies will abide by the rules, I'm afraid you can't afford to lose, so you can cheat!"
My words were full of irony, and when Poison Rose heard this, her angry face twitched, and she immediately turned around and ordered the Blood Butterfly people to order them not to mix, otherwise there would be no mercy.
Poison Rose's tone was extremely domineering, and the instructions were also harsh and solemn, unquestionable. After saying that, she turned around, looked at me, and asked, "Are you satisfied?"
I nodded and said indifferently, "Not bad!"
As soon as my voice fell, boom, the poisonous rose in front of me, the momentum suddenly burst out, and the powerful aura brought out a wave of heat, rushing to my face, making my face have a burning feeling, but in this instant, the poisonous rose turned into a generation of witches, her silk clothes, dancing with the wind, her eyes, red to the extreme, when her momentum reached its peak, the poisonous rose took out her weapon, poison needle and thin thread.
She pinched the needle in one hand, and the other hand gently slid down the thin thread on the needle, and at the same time, her extremely powerful domineering voice suddenly sounded in the silent air: "Then, let's start competing!"
At this moment, the poisonous rose is fully prepared, I remember the first time I met the poisonous rose in the Xu family villa, she disdained to shoot at me, saying that fighting with me would reduce her identity, and now, she not only wants to fight with me, but even shows such a violent and formal side, it can be seen that she attaches great importance to me.
Her arrogance is burning, I am in front of her, as if I am in a mountain of flames, however, my body is still as safe as a rock, my heart, still calm as water, my gaze, unconsciously staring at the sunset that is about to disappear.
Before disappearing, the sun still shone red on the earth, and when I saw this light, my faith was ignited. I closed my eyes gently, and then, slowly, I said calmly, "Come on!
