Ou Duxiao was furious, his eyes filled with an intense bloodlust: “You damned killer! I will kill you right now!”
After saying this, he drew his sword, ready to strike.
“Wait!” Ou Chengwu extended his hand to stop his son and sneered, “Chu Imperial Seat, your scheming is truly deep! Even at this moment, you still desire a quick death? There's no such easy way out!”
Ou Duxiao instantly realized, gritting his teeth, “Chu Yang, I will make you wish for life but be unable to have it, and wish for death but be unable to die! I want you to suffer eternally, even in the eighteen layers of hell, to repent for the sins you have committed!”
Chu Yang chuckled in disbelief: “Since you hate me so much, why not just come forward and capture me? What’s the point of keeping such a distance? Do you think merely by talking, you can make me wish I were dead?”
Ou Chengwu laughed coldly: “Chu Imperial Seat, I admit your wisdom surpasses the heavens and your eloquence is impressive; however, you are now a turtle in a jar, how can you possibly escape?”
Chu Yang replied lightly: “You must know, the night is long… and dreams are many…”
“Though the night is long, you are already destined to have no dreams!” Ou Chengwu said fiercely. “I know you are vigilant and cunning, so how could I dare to use the full dosage of the poison? This mixed poison will disable your mobility, but right now you still have the strength of a cornered beast, the true effect will only come after a quarter of an hour!”
“This was meant to incapacitate you on the spot, but I reduced the dosage out of fear that you might detect it,” Ou Chengwu scoffed. “Once the quarter hour passes, you will become a spineless shrimp; why should we take risks now?”
“And your reinforcements are still a thousand miles away! No matter what, they cannot reach here!” Ou Chengwu sneered ominously, “Chu King of Hell, just give up on this hope.”
Chu Yang stared wide-eyed with anger: “You…!”
“Hahaha…” Ou Chengwu laughed with satisfaction, looking up to the sky, “Chu King of Hell, accept your fate!”
Chu Yang gasped for breath, trying to push himself up only to sit back down halfway, giving a miserable smile: “Alright… alright!”
He then closed his eyes.
Ou Chengwu and the others still surrounded him, making no move; clearly, they wouldn’t act until the time was right. Not even a drop of blood would they allow this detestable Chu King of Hell to retaliate with before his death!
Time passed slowly; a quarter of an hour had gone by.
Chu Yang’s spirit was increasingly depleted, and sweat began to bead on his forehead.
“Waiting to die doesn’t feel good, does it? Hahaha…” Ou Duxiao laughed maniacally. “Chu brother, come, let me properly treat you to repay the great favor you have shown to the Ou Clan!”
As he spoke, his voice turned gritted, each word bursting forth from his clenched teeth.
Chu Yang weakly opened his eyes and contemptuously looked at Ou Duxiao: “Ou Duxiao, I haven’t dealt with the Xie Family, who are in a similar situation to yours, why would I act against them? You people from the Ou Clan are greedy and shameless, blinded by profit; who can you blame?”
Ou Duxiao was enraged, declaring, “At death’s door, you still dare to be stubborn! Go, capture him!”
Although Chu Yang clearly had no ability to act, he still didn’t dare to take risks.
After all, the fearsome reputation of the Chu King of Hell was well-known; who would dare to underestimate him?
With a command, over twenty experts closed in, each eager to seize the Chu King of Hell and achieve great merit for their clan! Their eyes were filled with fervor and cruelty!
More than twenty people pounced at once!
Ou Chengwu closed his eyes, murmuring, “Ancestors above, the great revenge of the Ou Clan is finally avenged today!”
Ou Duxiao slightly tilted his head, tears streaming down his face, bellowing, “Bring him here! I want to personally cut off his head and extract his organs to honor the eight thousand heroic spirits of my Ou Clan!”
