Chapter 230

Like a sudden thunderclap on flat ground, his mind reeled violently.

Hu Zi's rapid-fire words left everyone present frozen on the spot for a long moment, unable to come back to their senses.

Everyone had imagined reasons why Hu Zi might make a move against them, but no one had expected the other party's motive to be something like this.

Trading the head of the Anheigong Society's president for the qualification of a Heavenly King—what kind of madman could come up with such a plan?

Whether it was 'Wu' or Hades, after hearing Hu Zi's words, their faces went completely dark.

To want their heads—it wasn't just him alone; even the Fapingyi Society had failed to accomplish such a thing.

Demanding the heads of two members of the Anheigong Society at once—merely an outsider daring to spout such nonsense, do they truly take us for worthless trash to be kneaded at will?

Hades said in a low voice, "In other words, there's no chance to ease the conflict between you from the very start, is there?"

"Do you even need to ask?"

At this point, the expression on Hu Zi's face also went still, so still it was almost frightening.

"I said it from the very start—you are my target."

"And do you know why I would reveal this information? Because not just you, but everyone present here has to die!"

A calm face spoke calm words, but beneath that calm lurked a terrifying killing intent.

"Then you can try it and see!"

At this moment, even Hades's face had gone thoroughly grim, the veins on his forehead bulging and twitching.

To reach this level of strength and live to an age like Hades's, no one would lightly trifle with their own life.

At first he had mistakenly believed some kind of conflict existed between them; in his view, as long as the issue could be mediated, there was no need to fight to the death.

But now, he had to admit that after all these years, Hu Zi was still the first person to make him feel such fury!

"Amaterasu · Twenty-Eight Style!"

In his fury, magic power surged wildly from Hades's body, transforming into dozens of magic circles that hovered around Hu Zi!

Boom—!

Violent gusts swept out, and swathes of forest collapsed one after another under the impact of the force.

Beneath the thick smoke, before anyone could show a smile of joy, a dark shadow had already faintly emerged within the haze.

"It's useless. I've already seen through all of your movements, and I already know every one of your attack methods."

"Give up your resistance; perhaps I can let you die a little more swiftly."

……

"We can't keep dragging this out any longer!"

Dodging the pursuit of the black fog once again, several beads of sweat rolled down Hades's forehead, and his breathing had grown somewhat ragged.

"If we keep being dragged around by the opponent like this, the ones who lose will inevitably be us!"

The successive dodges had cost Hades a great deal of stamina; if it was already this way for him, then there was no need to mention Brunot and 'Wu'.

However……
