Chapter 625
“Supreme King, what did you call me for?
Just tell me. ”
When Xiao Haoran heard Ouyang Duannian’s cry of surprise, he knew that the latter was feeling uneasy in his heart. Thus, he purposely put on a deadpan expression and asked in a humble manner.
“You!”
Ouyang Duannian felt a great sense of irony and was so angry that he almost spat out blood. The rage in his heart was burning and his killing intent was roaring. He really wanted to kill Xiao Haoran and Xue Wuhen, but he couldn’t even take down the Fengsha Sword. How was he going to deal with the even stronger Xiao Haoran and the mysterious Xue Wuhen?
“Hahaha!”
Xiao Haoran once again let out a heroic laugh. He slowly raised the halberd towards the sky and shouted, “Old Ouyang, forgive me for not participating in the extermination of the Xiao Clan and for being Little Sister Yu Feng’s father. This Branch Leader will give you a chance to turn over a new leaf. Are you willing?”
“Turn over a new leaf?” Ouyang Duannian sneered and retorted, “What did I do wrong?
Xiao Chen killed my son. Could it be that I can’t avenge my son? ”
“Ouyang Tiande was naturally one of the main conspirators who plotted against His Majesty. He betrayed his master and committed a heinous crime. Now that he died in Young Master’s hands, he deserved it. Even death cannot wipe out his crimes!”
Xiao Haoran righteously refuted. His face had an awe-inspiring and righteous expression. The fingers of his right hand that gripped the halberd were slightly white because he used too much strength. It was obvious that he hated the main conspirators who plotted against Xiao Zhan and the Xiao Clan.
“Hmph!”
Ouyang Duannian wanted to refute, but he was afraid of angering Xiao Haoran. He was at a disadvantage and had no choice but to lower his head. Thus, he forcefully swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. In the end, he only used a cold snort to replace his unwillingness to accept it.
“You are unconvinced, right?”
Xiao Haoran saw that Ouyang Duannian was unconvinced. His expression became cold and he said without any trace of politeness:
“Ouyang Duannian, I will give you two choices. One, swear to the heavens that you will not become enemies with the Xiao Clan and work together with us to eradicate the evil Black Magic Pavilion. This way, we will let you go. Two, continue to be enemies with us. Then we will fight to the death!
Think it over carefully. I will give you ten breaths of time to think!
After ten breaths of time, if you still have no choice, then I will assume that you have tacitly agreed to the second choice. At that time, we will have no choice but to fight! ”
The reason why Xiao Haoran gave Ouyang Duannian a chance was not because he was afraid of the latter’s strength, but because Ouyang Duannian did not participate in the conspiracy against the Xiao Clan. In addition, Ouyang Yufeng was Xue Wuhen’s woman. In this way, Ouyang Duannian was Xue Wuhen’s father-in-law. In the Fu Nation, apart from Xiao Chen, he and Xiao Batian, Xue Wuhen’s position was second only to Xue Wuhen. Therefore, Xiao Haoran gave Xue Wuhen face.
In addition, Ouyang Duannian was very strong. If he could bury the hatchet with the Xiao Clan and participate in the eradication of the Black Magic Pavilion, it would be a great help. The Fu Nation was constantly absorbing the super experts and peerless experts of the Wilderness God Continent. They already had talents in all aspects. Their ultimate goal was to fight to the death with the Black Magic Pavilion in the future.
As the Branch Master of the Fu Nation, Xiao Haoran had a good grasp of the current situation on the continent. The Fu Nation had secretly taken control of the Dark North Kingdom’s royal palace. Naturally, he knew that the Heaven Mystics Kingdom’s royal palace was also controlled by the Black Magic Pavilion. The only place that was not controlled, the Qilin Kingdom’s royal palace was now almost destroyed by Xiao Chen and his brothers. Only Ouyang Duannian was left. The Qilin Kingdom’s royal palace only existed in name and was nothing to be afraid of.
The Gongsun Clan had already belonged to the Black Magic Pavilion. Therefore, the Fu Nation’s only enemy in the Wilderness God Continent could be said to be the Black Magic Pavilion. As long as Ouyang Duannian swore to the heavens not to be enemies with Xiao Chen, the Fu Nation could then go all out to deal with the Black Magic Pavilion.
Boom! Boom!
The Fengsha Sword was still fighting with Ouyang Duannian. After fighting for so long, neither of them could do anything to the other. It might be because both sides had consumed too much of their combat strength, and their combat states were no longer at their peak.
Xiao Haoran saw that Ouyang Duannian was busy dealing with the Fengsha Sword’s attacks and didn’t have much time to think about the choice he proposed. Xiao Haoran spoke to the Fengsha Sword politely, “Brother Sword, can you stop the battle first and give Ouyang Duannian time to make a choice?
I am Xiao Chen’s Uncle Haoran. Can you give me some face? ”
Swish!
The Fengsha Sword hesitated for a moment and flew to the side. It didn’t leave and planned to work with Xiao Haoran and the others to kill Ouyang Duannian if both sides were to negotiate.
Whew!
Ouyang Duannian temporarily stopped the Fengsha Sword’s attacks and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He vigilantly glanced at the Fengsha Sword and then looked at Xiao Haoran. He was thinking about the two choices that Xiao Haoran gave him. During the process of thinking, his expression was complicated. His eyes flickered, and his heart was in a mess.
No matter which option he chose, it would be a humiliation for Ouyang Duannian. It meant that he was afraid of Xiao Haoran and the others. Especially the first option, it was the most humiliating of all humiliations. The hatred for his son’s death was absolutely irreconcilable. If he were to make peace with the enemy who killed his son, and this matter was spread out, he, Ouyang Duannian, would probably lose all his face.
The first choice was something that Ouyang Duannian found hard to accept. As for the second choice, he was also in a dilemma. Just the Infernal Fiend Sword alone had already caused him to be badly battered. If Xiao Haoran and Xue Wuheng were to participate in the battle as well, he would definitely be defeated. The consequence of being defeated was either being crippled or dying.
The world of martial artists was just this cruel. Although Xiao Haoran had given Ouyang Duannian a chance to choose, he didn’t have the slightest bit of mercy. It was equivalent to forcing Ouyang Duannian to surrender and work hard for the restoration of the nation. Otherwise, it would be a dead end!
As time passed, ten breaths of time began to pass. Xiao Haoran, Xue Wuhen, and the Fengsha Sword began to drift their bodies in tacit understanding. They formed a triangle and surrounded Ouyang Duannian, who was in the middle, to prevent Ouyang Duannian from suddenly escaping and preparing to kill.
Ouyang Duannian naturally noticed the movements of the three powerful enemies. His complexion changed and became incomparably gloomy. He was thinking about what choice he should make. Half of the time had already passed. There were only five breaths of time left. After five breaths of time, it was very likely that an even more tragic life and death battle would occur.
“There are only two breaths of time left. Overlord, hurry up, hehe.” Xiao Haoran silently counted the time and suddenly reminded Ouyang Duannian.
“Is there a third option?” Ouyang Duannian was delusional in trying to stall for time.
“A third option?” Xiao Haoran repeated in astonishment. He then indifferently said, “I’m sorry, there isn’t!
Time is up!
Overlord, make your choice, right?
Don’t try to stall for time. I’m running out of patience! ”
“Eh …” Xiao Haoran had seen through Ouyang Duannian’s thoughts. His complexion couldn’t help but turn a little sour. He sighed in his heart and was about to make a choice or not to choose.
Suddenly!
