Chapter 194: Copper Corpse

"Since Young Master Lu agrees, I naturally have no objections."

Cui Jinjia said coldly, "However, your Huanhe Sect must follow the rules; you are not allowed to act recklessly!"

The two most outstanding disciples of the Joyous Harmony Sect, who were also Tian Guilong's two sons, had both been killed; where could Tian Guilong possibly find another outstanding son?

She had inquired about it; Tian Guilong had many sons, but only those two were capable.

Although the others were not exactly useless, there was still a gap between them and those two; how could they possibly be used to deal with Lu Tianyu?

This Tian Guilong dared to propose a duel between the younger generation, so he must have some kind of conspiracy.

"Hmph!"

After looking around, Tian Guilong gave a cold snort: "With so many people watching here, how could I possibly play any tricks!"

"My Joyous Harmony Sect has always followed the rules; I'm only afraid this brat doesn't have the guts!"

"This brat rejected the recruitment of many sects and insisted on joining your Tianjia Sect; he is incompetent and arrogant, so he will surely die young!"

He noticed that many people had arrived in the vicinity, including over a dozen cultivators at the Emperor Realm; there was no need to guess that they were all here for Lu Tianyu.

Rumor had it that Lu Tianyu was the monster of this generation, and they all wanted to take him in as a disciple.

His words also carried the intent to provoke these people.

The implication was that he looked down on all of your sects and specifically favored the Tianjia Sect.

This statement was also meant to have these people serve as witnesses.

"Why wouldn't I have the guts?"

Lu Tianyu smiled slightly: "It's just that I have already killed your sons; how many more sons do you have for me to kill?"

"I have a suggestion: why not bring out all your sons and let me kill them all, so as to avoid them coming to trouble me one by one."

He cupped his hands and bowed to those around him: "I ask all you seniors to bear witness!"

How could he not know what Tian Guilong was planning?

He also sensed the prying of the many people around; Tian Guilong wanted to regain his face in front of everyone.

And was he not here for the same purpose? Waiting here was to let everyone know that he was already a disciple of the Tianjia Sect.

For one, it gave these people a hint not to bother him again, and it also served as a warning to them not to be like the Joyous Harmony Sect and come looking for trouble for no reason.

As soon as Lu Tianyu's voice fell, these people no longer hid themselves and appeared one after another, their gazes all locked onto Lu Tianyu.

There were sixteen Emperor Realm cultivators in total; the expressions on their faces were indifferent, their auras restrained, appearing neither happy nor sad.

But Lu Tianyu could feel that these people all showed some degree of dissatisfaction.

Waves of Divine Sense carrying coldness and disdain surged into Lu Tianyu's Divine Sense Sea, intending to teach him a lesson.

It was understandable; having traveled from so many Western Regions to arrive here only to find nothing, how could they not be angry?

Only four individuals showed no reaction, as if Lu Tianyu joining the Tianjia Sect had nothing to do with their sects.

This made Lu Tianyu even more certain that his choice to join the Tianjia Sect was correct.

These people were dissatisfied that he could not join their sects; even if he had joined, there would have been no good outcome.

With their noses in the air and acting arrogant, such sects were not worth much.

On the other hand, although only Cui Jinjia appeared for the Tianjia Sect, Cui Jinjia had done his best and fulfilled everything he could.

"Good!"

"This is what you said; if you are beaten to death in public, then your death is in vain!"

Tian Guilong gave a sinister smile and waved his sleeve: "I will have my eighteenth son come out now and cut off your dog head!"

Swish!

A slender figure in white appeared out of thin air.

The man in white had a bronze-colored complexion and a dull gaze; there was no vitality on his body, making him look just like a living dead man!

However, a terrifying aura of coldness and evil radiated from his body, and the air around him turned a pitch-black color.

Almost instantly, the surrounding temperature dropped by more than ten degrees, as if the man in white possessed a power of extreme cold.

But Lu Tianyu knew that this was the reaction of the air caused by these evil powers.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression becoming solemn.

At this moment, the pitch-black dead eyes of the man in white looked over.

Suddenly, a monstrous killing intent pressed toward Lu Tianyu, appearing almost tangible, and followed his gaze in an attempt to surge into his Divine Sense Sea.

Lu Tianyu hurriedly circulated his Emperor Realm Divine Sense to push this aura out of his body.

He felt a trace of vitality from this person, but most of it was death energy.

This really was a living dead man!

Moreover, this person's cultivation had clearly reached the peak of the Heart Movement Stage, just one step away from breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage.

It was just that Lu Tianyu truly could not understand how this person could be Tian Guilong's eighteenth son!

Lu Tianyu said coldly: "Is this your son, or your puppet!"

Tian Guilong snorted: "He is naturally my eighteenth son; his name is Tian Jilong, only one character different from my own name, and he is one of the sons I value most!"

"What? Are you regretting it now, are you afraid!"

"But it's no use regretting it now; you've already asked everyone to bear witness, and backing out will only cause the Tianjia Sect to lose all its face, and you will lose your own face as well!"

This move of his was quite vicious.

If Lu Tianyu did not accept the challenge, it would not matter, but then the Tianjia Sect would lose its face.

Not only would Lu Tianyu be ridiculed by everyone, but the Tianjia Sect would also be reviled because of it.

Moreover, if he could not kill Lu Tianyu this time, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.

In any case, Lu Tianyu was also going to join the Changheng Academy, and there would be plenty of chances to kill him.

He had refined more than one Copper Corpse son, and there were several Silver Corpses that would kill Lu Tianyu in specific locations.

No matter how formidable Cui Jinjia is, it is impossible for him to guard against his schemes one hundred percent of the time.

Cui Jinjia, however, rebuked angrily: "Tian Guilong, you are so despicable, actually refining your own son into a Copper Corpse to deal with Young Master Lu!"

She looked around: "You all saw it, he is cheating!"

"A Copper Corpse is merely a corpse and cannot be considered within the category of humans at all, so this competition is void!"

She looked at Lu Tianyu: "Young Master, you must not compete with it. This Copper Corpse's body has been tempered in a volcano with various materials; it is incomparably hard, fears no physical attacks, and knows no pain!"

"This Copper Corpse has also been processed with the special Body Refining Technique of the Corpse Sect, allowing it to use special cultivation arts and fight fearlessly!"

"The Corpse Poison on its body is extremely toxic, and those who are struck find it very difficult to remove."

She was afraid that Lu Tianyu would impulsively compete against this Copper Corpse.

As soon as the words fell, a cold snort rang out: "Since the words have already been spoken, how can there be any reason to go back on one's promise!"

A middle-aged man in brocade robes spoke up.

"We are all here to bear witness; he cannot leave this place before the duel!" another cultivator in the Emperor Realm with a powerful aura spoke up.

"Fight, we will ensure you have a fair duel without outsiders interfering!"

"That's right! We have come from afar and want to see what kind of genius the Tianjia Sect has actually recruited; don't let us down!"
