Chapter 4: Please Die

Jiang Wang's voice fell, and he did not hesitate to draw his sword and slash.

"W-What!?"

As soon as the cold light appeared, Fang Peng raised his belt and crawled to avoid this sword, extremely angry and embarrassed.

Other than that, no one present reacted. Almost everyone thought that the next scene would be a brotherly reconciliation, and the love was so deep that it was even rumored to be a good story.

No one thought that with everyone's attention and brotherly love, Jiang Wang would really be able to make a sword!

"Pengju. Jiang Wang looked at him with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but the smile was extremely cold, "You said that you were going to be killed, why did you hide?"

Fang Peng's face turned white, he simply stood up from the ground, gritted his teeth and looked at him: "Third brother, do you really care about a little brotherhood?"

"Shameless bastard bastard!" By this time, Du Yehu was already furious, "Lao Tzu is blind to be a brother to you!"

As he spoke, he was about to rush over, but Jiang Wang stretched out his hand to stop him.

"Second brother, let me handle this matter myself. ”

Fang Pengju glared angrily, "Du Yehu, what's the matter with you!?"

"Fang Pengju, you disappointed me too much!" Ling He, who had always been generous, couldn't hold back his anger, he took a step forward, pulled out the sword on his waist, cut off a corner of his robe, and threw it heavily on the ground, "From now on, you and I will cut off the robe!"

"Big brother!" Fang Pengju laughed miserably, "Second brother is just impulsive, and even you can't understand me? I am willing to die to prove my innocence, but my parents are just my son, I am their only incense, and I can't let go of the hope of death! My life is not my own, how can I die here? Jiang Wang believes in traitors in vain, does not listen to explanations, and is bent on putting me to death! Does he have brotherly love in his heart?"

"Fourth brother, this is the last time I call you Fourth Brother," Zhao Rucheng, the youngest of the five heroes of Fenglin, finally spoke up, his face was a little childish but extremely handsome, and when he spoke at this moment, he was like gold and jade, and he landed in a loud voice: "Fang Decai's surname is Fang! Serving your Fang family for generations! What conditions can a group of defeated bandits come up with to buy him? Are you insulting your Fang family's wealth, or are you insulting the wisdom of all of us? How did a group of ruined dogs in Xishan sneak into Fenglin City and still set a trap in Mochiyue Tower? In the end, since you don't have the determination to die, who are you going to play this kind of? I, Zhao Rucheng, am ashamed to be with you!"

Among the five, Ling He and Jiang Wang's families are poor, Du Yehu's family background is not good or bad, and Fang Pengju and Zhao Rucheng are rich and noble sons. Needless to say, the Fang family said that although the Zhao family had only moved to Fenglin City in the past ten years, their family background was unfathomable.

"Xiao Wu, you have always been good friends with the third brother, and you just favor him on weekdays, but am I not your fourth brother?

Fang Pengju was heartbroken, and he seemed to be extremely tormented and injured.

"Pengju, you are still able to argue. Jiang Wang stopped Zhao Rucheng and the others, "But have you ever thought about why I didn't secretly contact the eldest brother, second brother, and junior fifth even though I was seriously injured before, but chose not to come to you until today?"

His eyelids drooped slightly: "Because I have never been willing to let them make any choices, I don't want them to be suspicious, I don't want them to be embarrassed! If I die, I die. Since I'm still alive, you have to pay it back to me. ”

Fang Pengju looked at him coldly: "Do you have the illusion of persecution? I don't owe you anything, how can you tell me to pay it back? Why are you obsessed?"

But Jiang Wang no longer talked to him, but turned to the tall Daozun statue in the Taoist courtyard and bowed down from afar: "Disciple Jiang Wang, was killed by the traitor Fang Pengju and almost died. This hatred cannot be resolved, and this hatred cannot be eliminated. Fight to the death!"

There was an uproar in the audience.

Dao Evidence Deathmatch!!

It is a crime to kill each other in the same door, but if there is really a great hatred of life and death, and a blood feud is difficult to eliminate, the Daomen is not taboo about such a thing as a duel.

Among the many kinds of duels, the duel witnessed by Daozun is also the most irreparable.

The Taoist sect generally believes that the Taoist Venerable lies for nine days and has insight into the universe. Recite his name and he will be known. Obey its form, that is, feel it. Once all vows involve the Dao Zun, they are irreparable.

The road proves that the fight to the death will not end.

As soon as Jiang Wang's words fell, a black-robed middle-aged Taoist priest appeared in front of the statue of Daozun.

He has a calm face and a short beard. There is a small green dragon embroidered on the right chest of the black robe, which is lifelike. This is a dragon robe that only the middle and third grade powerhouses can wear.

For secular cultivators, the realm is roughly divided into nine grades. Each genre or name is different, and there are different transcendent manifestations, but the general grade can be corresponded to from the nine-grade system. Grades 9 to 7 are the beginners, grades 6 to 4 are intermediate, and grades 3 to 1 are advanced. Interestingly, this also corresponds to the official qualities of various countries.

Of course, a small country like Zhuangguo, even if it is a prime minister, may not really have the strength of a product.

As soon as this black-robed short-bearded Daoist appeared, all the disciples present bowed down and saluted, "Dean!"

There are not many Taoists in the entire Maple Forest City who can wear Tenglong's black robes, including Dong A, the dean of the Maple Forest Daoist Academy. According to legend, he once practiced in Xin'an City, the capital of Zhuangguo, but because of his upright and impartial character, he offended the powerful and was sent to Fenglin City, Qinghe County.

Ling He's face was sad, but he didn't say a word. He knew Jiang Wang's swordsmanship very well, and it could be said that before he officially started to practice Dao arts, no one in the outer courtyard was his opponent, and Fang Pengju was no exception.

But since Jiang Wang proposed a duel, he said that his grievances were unresolved. At this time, the dean was in person, and Fang Pengju could either fight to the death, or he could only wait for the Fenglin Dao Institute to intervene to investigate Jiang Wang's plot.

However, where can Fang Pengju withstand the investigation of the Taoist Academy?

So in fact he didn't have a choice.

In countless suspicious, ridiculed, or angry eyes, Fang Pengju still didn't see panic on his face, "Third brother, do you and I really want to draw our swords to face each other?"

Jiang Wang said lightly: "It was you, not me, that brought us to where we are now." ”

"How are you going to trust me?"

"I have already given my life for this trust, and now, it is useless to say more, Fang Pengju in my impression is not a coward who does not dare to fight. ”

Fang Pengju was unmoved, "Are you so confident that you can kill me?"

Jiang Wang looked at him calmly, "You might as well give it a try." ”

Fang Pengju stared at him for a long time, and suddenly laughed, "It's a pity that you can't kill me, and our duel can't be established." Because just the day before yesterday, I had already begun to show my Dao lineage, and it can be said that I was already a disciple of the inner court! You and I are at different levels, how can we duel?"

As he spoke, he straightened up and stimulated the Dao veins with all his might, and everyone present could feel that there was a momentum rising from the dragon in his spine, making him energetic. This shows that he has manifested the Dao vein, and his physical body can feed back the Dao vein to give birth to the Dao Yuan, and he officially has extraordinary power.

The Daoist Academy has long had corresponding regulations for duels, and one of the most important points is that anyone can unconditionally refuse invitations to duels between different levels. This is to protect low-grade cultivators from being bullied by higher-grade cultivators. But at this time, it became a reason for Fang Pengju to avoid the duel.

Although he manifested the Dao vein, it had not been long in the past, and he had not begun to practice Dao arts, so his strength had not been improved in essence, so he still did not have the certainty of fighting Jiang Wang.

Jiang Wang was silent.

He looked at Fang Pengju silently, with mixed emotions.

Then he said slowly: "For the sake of this Open Pulse Pill, I broke into the West Mountain with a single sword and fought bloodily to break through the thief's nest. In this battle, I suffered thirteen wounds and two fatal wounds. ”

"In order to achieve the best effect by opening the pulse, I am ready to wait for my body to return to its peak state before using this pill. I know the truth of guilt, so I have never revealed anything to anyone. Everyone thought I would swallow the pill that day, except for you, except for our five brothers who were born and died. For I have nothing to hide from you. ”

"Ever since I was five years old when I came into contact with the world of cultivation, I have been chasing this Pulse Opening Pill. I don't have an innate Dao vein outward appearance, and if I want to be extraordinary, I can only rely on pills. It is my path, my hope, and my light. You know my family situation, you know how hard I work. I get up before dawn every day to practice my sword, and I only go to rest in the middle of the month. I never go to a brothel and I never indulge myself in any way. In the entire Fenglin Dao Academy, I dare to say that no outer disciple has worked harder than me. For this Pulse Opening Pill, I have worked hard for a full eleven years!"

Jiang Wang said, staring at Fang Pengju deadly, "With my sweat, my blood, my tears, my Pulse Opening Pill, is it easy to use?"

There was silence in the room.

Ling He's lips were pursed, Zhao Rucheng gritted his teeth and was silent, and even a man like Du Yehu was already in tears.

Yes, who of them doesn't know Jiang Wang's stupidity, Jiang Wang's tiredness, and Jiang Wang's bitterness?

And Fang Pengju was so ruthless!

"I don't know what you're talking nonsense!" Fang Pengju's face flashed with a hint of unnaturalness, but he was quickly forced to suppress it, "My uncle led a caravan through the Yun Kingdom in the last half of the year, and happened to buy back a Open Pulse Pill from a cultivator who was strapped for cash, so I was able to manifest the Dao Pulse, what does it have to do with you? Don't think that everyone is from a low background like you, and will do whatever it takes to forge ahead! My family has a lot of money, can't we afford to buy a Open Pulse Pill?"

Zhao Rucheng was already extremely hateful, and his words were no longer restrained: "Yes, the Fang family does have a lot of money." It's a pity that your parents died early, and you are not the only one in the Fang family, and the family resources allocated to you are even more limited. Otherwise, why didn't you have the Open Pulse Pill for such a long time, but it was so coincidental that you had it after my third brother was attacked?"

"That's a coincidence. I can only say, it's too coincidental!" Fang Peng raised his eyes with a cold light, "Don't talk about things without evidence, for the sake of our brothers, I don't care about you." Next time, as a disciple of the Inner Court, I will let you know what it means to be respectful and orderly!"

"You!" Zhao Rucheng was furious.

Du Yehu gritted his steel teeth even more, if it weren't for the presence of the dean, he couldn't wait to smash Fang Pengju's handsome face with one punch.

Only Jiang Wang was still calm, "Fang Pengju, I told you." You are too arrogant, too self-righteous, and often ignore the truth because of it. I've taught you, why can't you teach it?"

"Why don't you want to think about it, if the Dao Evidence Duel can't be established, then why is Dean Dong here?"

He took a step forward, and the Dao veins were also stimulated, and the earthworm in the spine dragon swam violently, and the whole person was as sharp as a sword, as straight as a sword!

"That's because I have also manifested the Dao veins and officially have extraordinary possibilities!"

"We are at the same level, and you don't dare to let the dean investigate. Thus, the duel is established!"

While Fang Pengju was shocked, Dean Dong A had already waved his sleeves.

At the gate of the Dao Courtyard, at the feet of Jiang Wang Fang Pengju and the two of them, suddenly a sapling broke through the ground, and within a few breaths, it grew wildly, growing into a huge wooden stake, holding the two of them up, and separating the other outer courtyard disciples from the outside.

The top of the stake seems to have been cut with a sharp weapon, and it is ten steps square. From a distance, it is a wooden circular platform. It's just that around the "high platform", there are branches swaying.

Fang Pengju had no doubt that once he turned around and ran away, these seemingly harmless branches of humans and animals would turn into devouring beasts.

And Jiang Wang's hand was already pressed on the hilt of the sword, ready to go.

Dong A made a casual move, and a branch twisted and rolled up the sword that Fang Peng had thrown on the ground before lifting it, and threw it onto the high platform.

Fang Pengju stretched out his hand to catch it.

In front of the statue of Daozun, who could never see his face clearly, the five-rank powerhouse, the Taoist priest of the Inner Palace, Dong Amo, announced: "Dao proof death match, start!"
