BXBX NOVEL Chapter 64 64: We Will Accept
Xu Shan couldn\'t help but find this a little frustrating. He wasn\'t sure how many people in this world were there who wanted revenge from him. In that way, the previous Third Prince had left him a lot of such headaches.
The way this woman was speaking to him, he was sure that she already had the backing of the Celestial Palace. He had read through many such templates in his last life..
"I assume she\'s already selected as a disciple of the Celestial Palace?" he asked, lazily glancing at the Elders as if the red haired woman wasn\'t even worth his attention.
"That\'s right. She\'s a disciple of the Palace." The leading Elder smiled. He and many other Elders already hated Xu Shah because of the death of some of their elders in the Eternal Dynasty.
There was no way they were going to allow him to do as he pleased here. In fact, even if she wasn\'t the disciple of the Celestial Palace, after her behavior, they would\'ve still accepted her and provided her protection.
Hearing the response, Xu Shan only smiled. However, that calm smile hid multiple secrets behind it. "Is that so..."
He finally turned his attention to Yei, who was clenching her fist.
"Do you want to kill me?" he asked the young woman, slightly amused.
"You think you can survive for an eternity just by relying on your guards and your backing?" Yei asked in return, controlling her rage. She didn\'t directly accept that she wanted to kill him, but it was evident for everyone who saw her that she was filled with bloodlust.
"That\'s true... Surviving in this world is quite hard indeed," Xu Shan nodded, as if thinking seriously. "Especially for traitors. I think I remember the Worden Tribe. I personally killed the Patriarch after all his clan was exterminated..."
As Xu Shan spoke, he stepped closer to the young lady, as if provoking her into attacking him. "He was quite stubborn. So it was fun to watch him cry in pain. You wouldn\'t happen to be his daughter, would you?"
Yei could insult Xu Shan with the backing of the Celestial Palace. However, she wasn\'t strong enough to kill him, especially with Ye Han standing in the distance. However, she was still raging with bloodlust, as she heard his words. It was proving to be hard for her to control herself.
In fact, she even thought about suddenly attacking and killing Xu Shan when he got closer, without giving Ye Han any chance to react.
Even if she was killed after killing Xu Shan, she didn\'t think she would\'ve regretted it. However, if possible, she wanted to become stronger and wipe Xu Shan\'s entire clan right before his eyes before killing him in the end. When she was that strong, she didn\'t have to worry about being killed!
"Yei! That\'s enough! Back off!" The Elder abruptly chimed in, worried that she might actually attack Xu Shan. No matter how much they hated him, they couldn\'t have an official disciple kill a Prince of an Ancient Dynasty.
Hearing the sudden shout of the Elder, Yei came to her senses, nodding. However, her bleeding hands were clearly visible as blood droplets fell on the ground. Only she knew how much willpower it took to resist the urge to kill that bastard.
\'What a pity...\' Xu Shan glanced at the Elder who had interrupted. However, he still had other ways to make her take action.
No matter what, he wasn\'t going to leave behind any insect that might become a dragon in the future and come back to kill him!
He turned to the Elders. "Are you worried that it\'ll be bad for the Celestial Palace if I\'m killed here?"
"How about this..." He took a brief pause, before continuing, "I\'ll accept a life and death duel with that traitor. If I\'m dead, it\'ll be mine and only mine fault. The Dynasty wouldn\'t find problems with you and even Ye Han wouldn\'t interrupt."
As he spoke, his calm smile never left his face which slightly surprised the Elders. Xu Shan was a mortal so what gave him the confidence to accept a life and death battle? Was he overestimating himself? Or was he bluffing, believing that they weren\'t going to accept this challenge?
Most of the Elders believed that it was the latter. He just wanted to show off before the other Disciples gathered here that the Celestial Palace couldn\'t do anything even after he separated himself from the Eternal Dynasty!
Unfortunately, even though the Elders knew that Xu Shan was bluffing, they didn\'t take the bait. They couldn\'t let any harm come to Xu Shan in this place, at least not death.
"We would have to reject your offer. This is a Disciple Selection Ceremony, not your personal playground," the Elder responded.
Xu Shan finally frowned. Even after he gave them such a nice opportunity, they still didn\'t take it. Was the fear of the Eternal Dynasty really so high?
"I must say, the Elders who died in the Eternal Dynasty had more courage at least." In the end, he sighed, glancing once more at Yei. It didn\'t matter if he couldn\'t kill her in this plane.
The two of them were going to be inside the Celestial Palace soon. He had all the time in the world. It was just a pity that he couldn\'t kill her right now.
"Since the Third Prince is so interested in having a life and death battle, we shall accept."
Just as Xu Shan turned around, disappointed, a calm voice came from the distance. The voice sounded like it belonged to a young man, but it was brimming with power.
He couldn\'t help but raise his head, looking at the sky. Two more people had arrived. One of them was an old man, who was even stronger than Ye Han! It was a Heavenly Celestial, on par with the Generals of the Eternal Palace!
Next to him stood a young man. The man didn\'t look much old, as if he was only in his early twenties. However, he was flying without any external support! That man was a Sky Celestial!
He wasn\'t as strong as Ye Han, only being in the second stage of Sky Celestial, slightly stronger than Xu Shan. However, for that thing age, this strength couldn\'t be ignored.
The two people clearly had a significant identity, especially the old man. From what he knew, Heavenly Celestial Warriors were known as the Great Elders of the Celestial Place, just under the Palace Master.
While Xu Shan was thinking who these two people were, a black screen appeared before him, only having one sentence on it.
