Return of the King, Dominating the City

Chapter 2063: Chapter 1851: Committed Suicide?

"Yaksha, you... you actually want me to compensate!?"

Shen Wenguang was utterly furious. Even though he was a mid-tier sss-level and the Clan Leader of the Shen Family, Yaksha didn’t regard him at all.

Yaksha curled his lips and said matter-of-factly, "You injured my disciple; shouldn’t you compensate?"

"You’re going too far!"

Shen Wenguang could no longer contain himself and roared, "Today, I, Shen Wenguang, will see what kind of skills you have, Yaksha, to dare to underestimate me like this!"

After saying this, he posed to attack Yaksha.

Seeing this, the whole audience was shocked.

Could it be that today we’ll witness a true peak duel?

It was truly worth coming to the Changshan Sect this time.

But if the two grandmasters were to fight, the aftermath would surely harm those around.

The crowd was both excited and nervous.

However, before Shen Wenguang could make a move, three silhouettes appeared beside Yaksha.

These three were none other than the Changshan Sect Leader Huang Jinseng, the Lin Family Patriarch Lin Xiao, and the old village chief of Gu Village, Gu Hong.

These three represented their respective powers.

Judging from their positions, they were clearly supporting Yaksha.

This could also mean they were supporting Song Yun.

Seeing these three appear, Shen Wenguang frowned and gripped his black-glow broken sword tighter, but he didn’t dare make a move.

Gritting his teeth, he scanned the three leaders and said solemnly, "What do you mean by this?"

Huang Jinseng remained calm and said indifferently, "Yaksha is my senior brother, and his disciple is my nephew. You want to kill my nephew; how can I stand by and do nothing?"

Upon hearing this, Song Yun finally realized that the old man was the Sect Leader’s senior brother, which meant he reluctantly counted as a Changshan disciple.

No wonder when he killed the Beidi Three Eagles before, the Changshan Sect said nothing, as there was this connection.

He also recalled Dongfang Yun mentioning a carefree, life-enjoying senior, which must have been referring to the old man.

After Huang Jinseng expressed his stance, Lin Xiao also said to Shen Wenguang, "Song Yun once helped me greatly. Although I’m not a saint, I know to repay kindness. Today, if anyone wants to harm Song Yun, I will not stand idly by."

Gu Hong stroked his beard and also said, "Shen Wenguang, we have a wager. If you kill Song Yun, I would lose. Do you think I’d just watch that happen?"

Although the three leaders spoke somewhat tactfully, their attitudes were clear.

They were firmly supporting Song Yun.

Upon hearing the three, Shen Wenguang’s face alternated between pale and livid, increasingly looking worse.

If a fight truly broke out, no matter how skilled Shen Wenguang was, he couldn’t withstand the combined might of the four mid-tier sss-level opponents.

His gaze swept across Yaksha and the others, saying coldly, "Song Yun killed my son. Do you expect me to do nothing?"

Yaksha said, "In the arena, weapons are unforgiving. Your son Shen Lingyun wasn’t as skilled and was killed by Song Yun. Do you want to blame others?"

"If Song Yun had died, could I seek revenge and kill your son?"

"You, Shen Wenguang, are of considerable age and yet don’t understand such a simple truth."

"Hmph! If you can’t afford to lose, your Shen family shouldn’t have participated in the quadrangular tournament."

"If you don’t want to lose face, you’d better go back to your seat."

"Otherwise, no one will respect your Shen family in the future."

Yaksha’s rapid-fire retorts left Shen Wenguang both flushed and speechless.

However, Shen Lingyun was still Shen Wenguang’s son.

Moreover, he was his most cherished younger son.

Now his younger son was dead, and letting Song Yun go like this was something he couldn’t accept.

More importantly, failing to kill Song Yun today would mean losing three-quarters of the family’s resources.

Currently, the Shen family hadn’t found the entrance to the Peach Blossom Spring, and losing three-quarters of the family’s resources would spell doom for the Shen family.

More importantly, Song Yun’s talent made him very wary.

If Song Yun isn’t killed today, he would inevitably become a significant threat in the future, disturbing the peace of the Shen family.

As Shen Wenguang pondered over these, he couldn’t escape the conclusion that Song Yun must die today!

He looked at Yaksha and said in a low voice, "Yaksha, my son cannot die in vain. Given today’s situation, killing Song Yun won’t be easy, but relying on numbers and trying to make me, Shen Wenguang, retreat is impossible. I have a proposal; do you dare to accept?"

Yaksha impatiently said, "Stop dawdling, speak up."

Shen Wenguang said, "I challenge you one-on-one. If you lose, you hand over Song Yun."

He calculated well, holding the black-glow broken sword and gaining an advantage; a duel with Yaksha would give him a great chance to win.

Yaksha disdainfully said, "Hmph, relying on that sword to defeat me? I fear you lack the ability. Fine, if you lose, return the sword to my disciple. Also, I want an arm of yours as compensation for injuring my disciple!"

As he spoke the last words, a cold gleam flashed in Yaksha’s eyes.

Without hesitation, Shen Wenguang immediately agreed, "Fine, I agree."

"In that case, let’s head to the arena."

Yaksha spoke and strode toward the arena.

Seeing this, everyone tensed up.

A peak showdown was truly about to begin.

Lin Xiao, Gu Hong, and Huang Jinseng exchanged glances, unsure of what to say.

In this battle, both Shen Wenguang and Yaksha seemed confident of victory.

But who would ultimately win remained uncertain.

"Old man, wait!"

Just as the confrontation was about to erupt, a voice sounded behind Yaksha.

The speaker was none other than Song Yun.
