CHAPTER 719: CHAPTER 719: UNAFRAID OF LIFE AND DEATH, UNDAUNTED BY POWERFUL FOES

Lu Xiao’s gaze was fixed on the Seventh Saint Son the entire time.

Seeing the guy subtly moving backward, he instantly understood the Seventh Saint Son’s plan.

Pfft, looks like he’s planning to run away.

Good awareness of danger, but sorry, today you won’t escape.

Although Master-level users aren’t much different to Lu Xiao, he still can’t let a Master-level Superpower User always think about dealing with him from the shadows.

Better to solve the problem once and for all than be constantly vigilant.

"Seventh Saint Son, right? Come on, let’s have a one-on-one duel," Lu Xiao beckoned to the Seventh Saint Son with his fingers.

When it comes to drawing hatred, Lu Xiao was always skilled.

Hearing that Lu Xiao wanted a duel, the Seventh Saint Son was clearly stunned.

The other Holy Spirit Guards immediately quieted down, looking back and forth between Lu Xiao and the Seventh Saint Son.

To be honest, leaving other things aside, Lu Xiao is way braver than the Seventh Saint Son.

The Seventh Saint Son never intended to take action himself from start to finish, not only did he refrain, but he also forced those ordinary Holy Spirit Guards to risk their lives.

What a son of a bitch.

Then looking at Lu Xiao, even knowing the Seventh Saint Son was Master-level, he still fearlessly asked for a duel.

Even though Lu Xiao definitely wasn’t a match for the Seventh Saint Son, such courage and the spirit to disregard life and death were truly admirable.

"You..." the Seventh Saint Son pointed at Lu Xiao, almost agreeing impulsively.

But in the end, he held back.

This guy asking for a duel must have some tricks up his sleeve, surely it’s a setup.

Can’t be careless.

"What’s your level! You’re not worthy to duel with me!" the Seventh Saint Son roared angrily.

Lu Xiao: Crap

The gaze of the Holy Spirit Guards in the square toward the Seventh Saint Son changed as well.

What, too scared to fight?

Isn’t the Seventh Saint Son already a Master-level Superpower User?

"Seventh Saint Son, what is intolerable must not be tolerated!"

"Please fight, Seventh Saint Son, uphold the prestige of Holy Spirit Pavilion!"

"Honestly, is the Seventh Saint Son scared? A man in his twenties and afraid to fight?"

The crowd began to chatter, with some urging the Seventh Saint Son to fight, and others secretly scoffing in disdain.

The Seventh Saint Son was clearly in a dilemma as well.

If he really ran away, his reputation would likely be utterly ruined. Even if no one dared say it to his face because of his strength, often being gossiped about and slandered behind his back was even more disgusting and uncomfortable.

But fighting against Lu Xiao was concerning since he feared that the young man had set up some scheme.

He had also done some investigating these past few days, and it seemed there was some unclear relationship between Lu Xiao and Mai Ganfu.

If there truly was a connection.

Then if he took action against Lu Xiao, it would give Mai Ganfu an excuse to target him.

"If you really want to fight, I suppose it’s not impossible," the Seventh Saint Son narrowed his eyes looking at Lu Xiao.

"There’s a condition, eh? Speak up," Lu Xiao wasn’t hurrying, the night was still young.

It had just turned night not long ago, and he had plans to go enjoy Lamp Street with Chen Fei, which naturally would be better to wait until deeper into the night for the right atmosphere.

"If we are to fight, then let’s lay down a life-and-death agreement."

"Either win or die."

"Moreover, regardless of life or death, neither party’s friends or relatives may interfere during the match, nor seek revenge afterward."

"Dare you?!"

Hearing the Seventh Saint Son’s conditions, Lu Xiao probably understood why this guy was hesitating so much.

He probably found out some of his dealings with Mai Ganfu, afraid of Mai Ganfu standing behind him, afraid that taking action against him would provoke Mai Ganfu’s retaliation.

Smart, but not by much.

"A life-and-death agreement, huh? Why wouldn’t I dare! Let’s set it!" Lu Xiao nodded, his expression one of generous passion.

In the square, those who had originally been cheering for the Seventh Saint Son now fell silent.

They really couldn’t stand it anymore; the Seventh Saint Son kept shouting about avenging the Five Saint Sons and restoring the majesty of the Holy Spirit Pavilion.

But in the end? He hesitated and dithered, not daring to step up. Now that he finally decided to fight, he still lingered over setting a life-and-death agreement.

On the contrary, Lu Xiao, both in spirit and will, inspired their admiration.

Unafraid of life and death, undaunted by a powerful enemy.

This was indeed the spirit that the Holy Spirit Pavilion should embody.
