As Zhao Bing spoke, he lunged forward, pushing the state of 'man and sword as one' to its absolute limit.
Gu Kun was startled and shouted angrily, "Do you actually want to kill me?"
But the very next moment, his pupils dilated in sheer terror.
This time, Zhao Bing unleashed thirteen sword strikes in a mere instant.
Thirteen afterimages flashed and vanished.
Using all his strength, Gu Kun frantically managed to deflect only twelve streaks of sword energy.
He didn't even have the energy to control the direction of the deflected strikes; he could only focus entirely on defense.
The next moment!
Gu Kun felt a sudden chill at the back of his head. The Chixiao Sword pierced right through his skull from behind, emerging directly out of his mouth just as he was about to speak.
"How dare you..."
Gu Kun's eyes bulged wide open. Refusing to close his eyes in death, he slowly collapsed to the ground.
His gaze was still filled with absolute disbelief.
At this moment, it wasn't just him—everyone watching at the scene was stunned.
Even those tuning into the live broadcast gasped in shock.
"Holy shit! This crazy bastard actually killed someone from the Gu Clan!"
"He's dead meat now. The Gu Clan will definitely not let him off."
"It was manslaughter, he didn't mean to do it."
"Can any big shots explain what realm this is? How is he so strong?!"
...
The elders of the Gu Clan stood up from their seats in utter shock.
Gu Yang was among them.
His vital energy surged violently, his left fist cracking as he clenched it tight. Pointing his right finger at Zhao Bing, he roared:
"How dare you kill a member of my Gu Clan!"
This furious roar instantly silenced the buzzing arena. You could hear a pin drop.
One couldn't blame Gu Yang for losing his composure.
Gu Kun's innate talent was renowned as top-tier within the Gu Clan.
He was on the verge of advancing to Martial Venerable. In a few decades at most, he was almost guaranteed to become a Martial Saint.
He was an important pillar for the Gu Clan's future.
At this moment, everyone kept as quiet as winter cicadas.
Countless martial arts experts looked at Zhao Bing in the arena with sympathy.
Immortal Capital.
Chen Feng, naturally, was also paying attention to this match.
Although Zhao Bing was wearing a hat and a mask, Chen Feng recognized him the moment he used his sword techniques.
Seeing Zhao Bing actually kill a Gu Clan genius right to their faces made him sweat for his disciple.
"If you don't seek death, you won't die!"
"This guy Zhao Bing is just too impulsive."
Su Yan, who was beside him, shook her head and chuckled softly:
"He's even more impulsive than his master."
Shuang Shuang clenched her little fists and said:
"Uncle Zhao Bing is so amazing!"
"You can do it! Go, go, go!"
Chen Feng immediately corrected her:
"It's your Senior Brother Zhao Bing."
Liu Weiwei sighed softly and explained to her master:
"Junior Brother Zhao Bing has hit a bottleneck."
"His Thirteen Deadly Swords have reached the state of Unity of Heaven and Humanity. Among those of the same level, he practically has no rivals."
"But hitting a bottleneck is a tremendous torture for a martial arts fanatic like him."
"He has always wanted to comprehend stronger moves, just like Senior Sister and I did."
"In order to break through to a higher realm, he has completely disregarded his own life and death."
As Chen Feng listened to Liu Weiwei's explanation, he prayed that the Gu Clan wouldn't tear up all pretenses on the spot.
At the same time, he wondered if there was any way to save this martial arts fanatic of a disciple.
Soon, it came to him.
He had two Gu Clan members on his side.
Qianqian's father and her uncle.
The Gu Clan cared deeply about the lives of their own.
Perhaps he could use their lives in exchange for Zhao Bing's.
Chen Feng turned to look at Su Yan.
"Do you have a phone number for anyone in the Gu Clan?"
Su Yan smiled faintly, took out her phone, and sent a message to a group chat.
Soon, a phone number was sent over.
Chen Feng didn't even ask whose number it was.
He rushed directly into the room where the two Gu Clan members were being held.
Originally, he only wanted to extract some information about the Flood Dragon from them.
He didn't expect them to be useful for this.
Facing the two men in the room, he directly made a video call.
The furious Gu Yang suddenly heard his phone ring.
He picked it up and saw an unknown number requesting a video call.
"Who is this?"
He answered the call in confusion, and the faces of Qianqian's father and uncle immediately appeared on the screen.
At the same time, a voice came through the video.
"If you dare to kill the man in the arena, I'll bury these two with him."
Gu Yang stared at the two dying men in the video.
Only after confirming they were still alive did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"Who are you?"
Chen Feng didn't answer, merely repeating:
"If Gu Clan members can kill outsiders in the arena."
"It's only natural that outsiders can kill Gu Clan members."
At this moment, a Gu Clan elder wanted to make a move.
Gu Yang hurriedly raised his hand to stop him and passed the video call around for the others to see.
However, in the arena, Zhao Bing stared disdainfully at Gu Yang and the group of elders.
In front of everyone present, he declared loudly:
"When you allowed him to kill outsiders, you should have been prepared for him to be killed!"
"Does the great Gu Clan not even have this basic level of awareness?"
All the contestants in the venue couldn't help but look at Zhao Bing.
Even the fighters in the other arenas stopped their matches.
"This guy is crazy!"
"Daring to shout at a Gu Clan Martial Saint, is he afraid he won't die fast enough?"
"So what if he dies? He killed a Gu Clan member, it's totally worth it!"
"Then why don't you dare to kill one?"
"It's a pity that hot-blooded youths don't live long!"
...
Right after Zhao Bing's bold statement.
A burly man from the Gu Clan leaped into the arena in a rage.
Instantly, his skin turned the color of gold as he unleashed the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art.
Then, without any hesitation, he threw a heavy punch at Zhao Bing.
"A lowly outsider dares to bark at the Gu Clan!"
"I will kill you today!"
Seeing another Gu Clan member enter the ring, a cruel smile appeared on Zhao Bing's face.
The sword energy from the Thirteen Deadly Swords instantly slashed against the man's body.
Sparks went flying.
However, it dealt no significant damage.
Seeing that Zhao Bing's sword energy failed to break his defenses, the burly Gu Clan man grew even more confident.
His punches and kicks became wide and sweeping, growing increasingly reckless and unbridled.
Zhao Bing also realized that his opponent's defense was absurdly strong.
His sword energy could only leave shallow marks on the man's skin.
It failed to even pierce it.
This development made the audience break out in a cold sweat.
"The defense of the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art heavily counters sword techniques."
"The opponent can just brawl recklessly without any worries."
"Not only can he not break through the defense, but if he gets hit by those rock-hard fists, he's probably done for."
"I just wonder who this guy is. His sword skills are incredible."
...
The spectators off-stage, aside from the Gu Clan members, automatically sided with Zhao Bing.
However, they only dared to discuss it in hushed tones.
The Gu Clan members, on the other hand, shouted loudly and arrogantly:
"Beat this damn bastard to death!"
"A lowly peasant dares to disrespect the Gu Clan!"
"What's the use of fast swordplay? If he can't break the defense, he can only wait for death!"
"Shatter his bones! Let this inferior trash know the power of the Gu Clan!"
...
Hearing the clamor of the Gu Clan spectators, the Martial Saints of the Gu Clan couldn't help but frown.
They could see that Zhao Bing's sword path had reached the Unity of Heaven and Humanity.
Meanwhile, their clansman's Indestructible Vajra Divine Art had yet to reach that realm.
Although he could temporarily suppress his opponent relying on his formidable defense.
Winning would likely be quite dangerous.
Because the Gu Clan knew very well that the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art was not as invincible as it seemed.
Once a way to crack it is discovered, things will get incredibly dangerous.
