Chapter 1189: Wu Lei vs. Wu Daoxuan

Long before Wu Xiner confessed everything to him, Wu Daoxuan had already been overcome by rage, suffering damage to his heart meridian and even triggering a trace of an Inner Demon; not only was his Soul damaged, but the injury to his heart meridian was further exacerbated.

It took a full month of closed-door cultivation to barely suppress the injuries.

The anger at this moment caused the heart meridian trauma that he had barely suppressed to be triggered once again.

After a mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out, his complexion instantly turned deathly pale.

His aura plummeted.

What was even more fatal was this.

His Inner Demon was awakened once again.

Within his mind, illusions proliferated, leaving him with no energy to fight at all.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wu Lei smashed a fist into Wu Daoxuan's chest.

Crack!

Amidst a series of bone-cracking sounds, Wu Daoxuan spat blood and flew backward.

Wu Lei's figure flickered, catching up once again.

Another punch slammed into Wu Daoxuan's body; Wu Daoxuan changed direction and flew backward once more.

Wu Lei's figure flashed, continuing the attack.

Wu Daoxuan changed direction and flew backward again.

For a time.

Wu Daoxuan seemed to have transformed into a punching bag, being continuously knocked away by Wu Lei.

In the blink of an eye.

Wu Daoxuan had taken over a dozen punches from Wu Lei, and the bones throughout his body were now shattered into powder.

Wu Daoxuan's vomiting of blood and the plummeting of his aura were extremely abrupt and difficult for people to understand.

So much so that his sudden defeat left even the Clan Leader and Great Elder of the Wuling Domain Fox Clan unable to react in time.

By the time they regained their senses, Wu Daoxuan had already been completely crippled, turned into a bloody mess.

"Stop!"

The Great Elder's expression changed drastically, his urgent voice transmitting into the Battle Space within the Stone Stele.

Hearing this voice, Wang Jianqiang's heart stirred, and the fist that was about to land on Wu Daoxuan immediately halted.

With a flash of his figure, he retreated.

Thump~

Wu Daoxuan, who had long since fallen into a coma, tumbled to the ground; the Battle Space detected his defeat and teleported him out.

Afterward, Wang Jianqiang's thoughts stirred, and he also appeared in the outside world.

"Daoxuan!"

Just as Wang Jianqiang appeared in the outside world, a figure flashed and appeared beside Wu Daoxuan.

It was none other than the Great Elder of the Fox Clan.

When he perceived the severe injuries on Wu Daoxuan's body, his expression instantly turned gloomy.

He looked coldly at Wang Jianqiang, "Wu Lei, you have such great audacity; to dare to use such heavy hands during a match between clansmen."

"Your nature is so vicious that you will surely be a scourge to the clan in the future; today, I must eliminate you!"

Having said this, he waved his palm.

A giant palm print came crashing down toward Wang Jianqiang.

Wang Jianqiang's gaze flickered.

A look of terror instantly appeared on his face; he wanted to flee, but he was pinned in place by an invisible force, unable to move.

His complexion turned deathly pale.

Just as "Wu Lei" was about to perish at the hands of the Great Elder, a force suddenly flew in from the side, shattering the Great Elder's attack.

Immediately following, a figure flashed out, "Great Elder, calm down."

Seeing the person who had intervened, the Great Elder's gaze flickered, "Clan Leader, this child is ruthless; he will surely become a scourge to our clan in the future. Are you intending to protect him?"

"Great Elder, in the Clan Competition, life and death are determined by fate; you are being too impulsive."

The Fox Clan Clan Leader looked at the Great Elder and spoke with a frown.

At the same time.

Another voice transmitted into the Great Elder's mind, "The rules for the Clan Competition have already been set, and this child stopped immediately after you spoke, without making any further attacks. If you kill him in public, the reason is too far-fetched, and I fear it will arouse suspicion among the clansmen."

"Moreover, Daoxuan's injuries are very severe; I do not know if he can recover before the Ancestral Sacrifice Ceremony. If he can, I have no objection to you killing him, but if he cannot..."

"You also know the significance of the Ancestral Sacrifice Ceremony to the various branches of the clan."

"This child is almost the only person in our clan second only to Daoxuan; when the time comes, who will fight?"

The Great Elder listened to the voice in his mind, his expression shifting.

Just then, the Fox Clan Clan Leader's voice transmitted into the Great Elder's mind once again, "Wait until the Clan Assembly ends. If he cannot win a spot to participate in the Ancestral Sacrifice Ceremony, then he shall be yours to dispose of."

"If he wins a spot, I will hand him over to you for disposal after he finishes participating in the Ancestral Sacrifice Ceremony."

Upon hearing this, the killing intent on the Great Elder's body slowly dissipated.

He looked coldly at "Wu Lei" once, "Wu Lei, considering your youth and ignorance, this Elder will not pursue this matter further; I hope you behave yourself."

Having said this, he picked up Wu Daoxuan, and his figure flashed and disappeared.

"Many thanks to the Clan Leader for upholding justice for me."

Seeing the Great Elder depart, Wu Lei acted as if he had been granted amnesty, bowing with clasped hands to the Fox Clan Clan Leader with a face full of gratitude.

The Fox Clan Clan Leader looked at Wang Jianqiang.

Uphold justice?

The only thing he cares about is whether his status within the clan remains secure.

The Great Elder has intricate connections within the clan, and he still needs the Great Elder's support.

Just a junior with decent talent, and without a powerful background.

If not for the fact that the clan's Ancestral Sacrifice Ceremony is imminent, he certainly would not have bothered with this child offending the Great Elder.

However, although he thinks this way in his heart, with many clansmen watching now, he naturally cannot show it.

A facade of fairness still needs to be maintained.

A gentle smile appeared on his face, "The clan has clan rules, and this grand competition had regulations set long ago. Since you did not violate the regulations, you naturally need not face punishment; just continue to participate in the upcoming matches."

"I have high hopes for you."

Hearing the Clan Leader's words, Wu Lei's face revealed an expression of excitement, as if he had been greatly encouraged; he held his head high and puffed out his chest, his voice resonant, "Rest assured, Clan Leader, I will definitely go all out to win first place in this grand competition and will not let down the Clan Leader's expectations."

The Fox Clan Clan Leader nodded with a smile, "Very good."

Having said this, he looked around, "Next, the grand competition continues."

After speaking, his figure flashed, and he returned to his seat.

Everyone looked at that imposing figure sitting back in his seat, their hearts surging with passion, and expressions of reverence appeared on their faces one after another.

"Worthy of being our Clan Leader, fair and incorruptible, impartial and selfless, treating everyone equally."

"Only such a Clan Leader can lead our Wuling Domain Fox Clan toward prosperity!"
