Chapter 85: Life-and-Death Blood Duel

"There aren't many conditions, very simple, only two." Wang Wang Juechu said expressionlessly.

"First, your people must withdraw from this sect's sphere of influence, and this withdrawal must be done in batches, and under the surveillance of this sect's disciples." His tone was very stiff.

"Can do, no problem." Jia Jia Tianlong agreed without hesitation.

Seeing the other party agree so readily, Wang Wang Juechu sneered, and then stated the next condition that greatly surprised Jia Jia Tianlong.

"The second is that you and I must conduct a life-and-death blood duel here, and then you can leave."

"Life-and-death duel!"

"Is it real or fake?"

"Has the other party gone crazy!"

As soon as Wang Wang Juechu's words came out, it immediately caused a huge uproar in the crowd opposite. Everyone who heard these words had different expressions. Some were shocked like they had seen a poisonous scorpion, while others were extremely excited, appearing eager to try.

Jia Jia Tianlong's expression changed after hearing this, but he soon returned to normal.

"Did I hear wrong? Is it a blood duel where both sides sign a life-and-death contract, and only one side can leave the duel arena?" He laughed, asking very casually.

"Not at all! This is a blood duel that must be held to repay the blood debt of Sect Master Wu and others. You and I must also participate." Wang Wang Juechu pressed his hand on the sword hilt, staring at Jia Jia Tianlong, and said coldly.

Jia Jia Tianlong gave a laugh, not committing to an answer immediately, but his eyes flickered as he pondered. It seemed he didn't dare to neglect the life-and-death blood duel and would only give an answer after careful consideration.

Seeing that everyone nearby was discussing the life-and-death duel, Han Li, who was ignorant of this, couldn't help but ask Li Li Feiyu beside him.

"What is a life-and-death duel? It seems like a big deal!"

"No way! You don't even know about a life-and-death duel? Too unbelievable! This is the most famous bloody way for Jianghu people to resolve disputes!" Li Li Feiyu's face was as wonderful as if he had seen a ghost, full of astonishment.

"Nonsense! You've always known that I don't know much about these Jianghu matters. What's so strange about not knowing this?" Han Li said in a low voice, not in a good mood.

"Oh! That's true, I almost forgot that." Li Li Feiyu scratched his head embarrassedly.

"The so-called life-and-death duel refers to both sides with deep hatred signing a life-and-death book before the duel, declaring that since entering the duel arena, only one side can walk out alive. If someone leaves the duel privately, not only will their reputation be ruined and they will be spat upon, but they will also be wanted and hunted by the entire Jianghu. Because all Jianghu people believe that a life-and-death duel is a sacred duel, and anyone who tarnishes this duel should be executed as a warning."

"And this kind of duel is generally used in occasions of multi-person death duels, so it appears particularly bloody and cruel. In recent years, it's rarely heard that anyone adopts this kind of duel method."

Li Li Feiyu said slowly, explaining in great detail.

After listening, Han Li frowned. After understanding the nature of the life-and-death duel, he felt disapproving of the life-and-death duel suddenly proposed by Sect Master Wang. In his view, this kind of duel was clearly a lose-lose situation; why bother! It would be better to cleanly let the enemy leave early, saving trouble.

"Good, I agree, we can conduct the life-and-death duel." After repeated consideration, Jia Jia Tianlong looked at Master Jin Guang a few times and finally made up his mind.

One must know that the other party wanted to use this opportunity to kill him, and he also wanted to use this good opportunity to sweep away the remaining elites of the Seven Mysteries Sect!

Jia Jia Tianlong knew very well what Wang Wang Juechu was planning. Wasn't the other party relying on the three unknown Han Shishu? Unfortunately, he had long ago learned the details through spies and had precautions against this.

Now that he had a cultivator who could use the Flying Sword Art as his trump card, plus calculating against the unprepared, he was absolutely 90% sure of winning the life-and-death duel.

As long as Wang Wang Juechu and the remaining experts of the Seven Mysteries Sect were eliminated in the duel, it didn't matter even if this operation didn't succeed. Because if they came to attack next time, the other party would definitely have no power to resist. One must know that the cultivation of experts could not be achieved in a year or two.

Therefore, Jia Jia Tianlong, who usually thought three times before acting, dared to take this risk and resolutely agreed to sign the life-and-death book.

"Sect Master Wang! According to the rules of the life-and-death duel, since you proposed the time and place of the duel, and I didn't object, then the number of people and the method of the duel should be decided by me, right?" Jia Jia Tianlong said with a fake smile.

"Hmph! Not bad." Wang Wang Juechu agreed reluctantly.

"That's good, I request the number of people for the duel to be one hundred, with fifty people from each side, adopting a melee mode." Jia Jia Tianlong stated his request without ceremony.

"Fifty people? Melee?" Sect Master Wang's cold face showed a trace of surprise.

One must know that in a normal duel, in order not to let their own vitality be greatly damaged, both sides generally only had twenty or thirty people, and the melee mode was rarely adopted, with the one-on-one challenge being the most used.

However, since he was the one who first proposed the life-and-death duel, he naturally couldn't go back on his word. And he had full confidence in his three Han Shishu, believing that even in a melee, the winner would definitely be his side.

Besides, as long as he could kill Jia Jia Tianlong, no matter how much the price paid, it was worth it. As long as this resourceful Wild Wolf Gang master died, his unruly subordinates would immediately become divided and fight internally for the position of gang master, leaving no time to care about the Seven Mysteries Sect, which had lost much of its strength, leaving it a chance to breathe.

Thinking of this, the sect master nodded and agreed to the other party's request.

"Come! Mark out the duel arena! Prepare the life-and-death book!" Wang Wang Juechu shouted sternly to the people behind him.
