CHAPTER 89: Final Battle at the Throne!
"You bastards! Give me back my fourth younger brother's life!" Elder Three yelled in agitation, ready to charge forward!
"Wait! Be careful, it might be a trap!" Elder Two held him back, his eyes sharp as he surveyed the scene, then waved his hand, unleashing a streak of lightning.
It was a short dagger, accurately aimed at the chest of Gu Duxing! The target was none other than Gu Duxing's heart!
Clearly, he intended to kill someone first to confirm their intentions. After all, when faced with life-and-death situations, even if they were faking, they would have to act accordingly. At that moment, it would be evident whether they had fallen into another trap!
Gu Duxing's eyes turned cold, a resolute expression on his face.
The dagger came not too swiftly; he could have caught it with a simple reach, and dodging would be even easier. But if he managed to evade, it would prove that everyone was just pretending. At that moment, it would truly spell disaster for them all.
He cast a lingering glance at his brothers, his body barely twisting away, seeming unable to escape any longer... Gu Duxing had already resolved to sacrifice himself for this operation, to save his brothers!
The flash of the dagger was upon them!
"Young Master!" A heart-wrenching scream erupted as someone suddenly leaped up from beside Gu Duxing, staggering as they pushed him aside, yet their movements were so slow they seemed unable to dodge any longer, meeting the blade with their own chest.
Pfft!
Blood splattered everywhere!
The dagger plunged deep into the chest of this throne expert, who convulsed in pain, their face twisting painfully as they stiffly turned and slowly fell down. Blood flowed from their mouth, and they had already stopped breathing!
"Uncle Wang Liu!" Gu Duxing shouted in anguish, his heart shattering with grief!
However, Elder Two and the others across the way looked at this scene and burst into gleeful laughter, clearly, they had indeed been poisoned!
Otherwise, such a slow blade would have been impossible to evade, and let alone at the cost of a throne expert's life.
"Capture them all! I want them alive!" Elder Two snarled viciously. "I will personally torture them to death one by one! For the revenge of my fourth, eighth, and ninth brothers!"
With a single command, the sixteen experts behind him stepped forward in unison, charging like wolves and tigers into the crowd that had lost all power to resist.
Elder Three, moving the fastest, had already grabbed Chu Yang, lifting him up with a cruel smile, saying, "Chu King of Hell, you too have fallen into my hands!"
Chu Yang looked at him feebly, forcing a bitter smile, "Using poison to scheme, what kind of ability is that?"
"Shut your mouth! Was it fair when you used poison to scheme against my fourth brother?" Elder Three bellowed angrily. "Take them all away!"
The ten throne experts, upon receiving the order, each grabbed someone, some even shoving them roughly. They confiscated weapons, feeling more at ease. They turned and began to retreat.
"Hmm... why is one person missing?" Elder Two squinted from afar, frowning. "Including the dead one, we're still short one girl... where is that girl?"
As he questioned, a sudden change occurred!
The captives, who had been limp and barely alive in the hands of the ten throne experts, suddenly sprang to life, unleashing punches and strikes at the nearest throne experts with all their might!
Whether it was their chests, heads, lower bodies, or dantian, attacks erupted relentlessly, instantly showering these people with countless hits.
Elder Three felt an explosive surge of sword energy erupting from his arms! The sharp and tyrannical light of the sword caught even him, who had already activated his domain, by surprise!
The sword light first shot out like rays of sunlight, continuously piercing through his domain, then coalesced into a beam, fiercely smashing forward, creating a gap in his protective barrier, unleashing a torrent of fierce attacks!
