Chapter 1179 - 1178: The One-Move Duel
"Is there such a thing?"
Betty’s beautiful willow eyebrows slightly furrowed, casting a frosty glance at the City Guards lying on the ground.
"Your Majesty, we deserve death..."
These City Guards didn’t wait for Betty to question them and recounted the entire course of events.
Of course, they also mentioned Zhang Bin’s disdainful attitude when he entered the city.
"Kill them..."
Betty coldly commanded.
"Spare us..."
The City Guards shouted in terror.
But the sound quickly fell silent because one of Betty’s Protectors took action.
It was a monster cultivated from a whale, and it merely opened its mouth and lightly inhaled.
Swallowing all the City Guards inside.
Swallowed them alive!
This is the ruthless Demon Race.
The strong are revered, and the weak are preyed upon.
Then, Betty cast her frosty gaze onto Wu Jun’s face and coldly sneered, "Wu Jun, since you haven’t slaughtered my people, you can leave, but your disciple Gong Wu must pay with his life because he slaughtered thousands of shrimp soldiers and shark soldiers."
"That’s impossible; to kill my disciple, you’ll have to step over my dead body!"
Wu Jun shouted ferociously.
"Kill me? With just you? How laughable." Zhang Bin showed no fear, a hint of disdain appearing on his face, "Also, I never commit wanton slaughter, so I can’t accept Your Majesty’s use of the term ’slaughter.’ I merely killed the monsters that wanted to kill me! That’s all."
"Alright, alright, alright."
Betty was infuriated to the extreme, her icy gaze swept over Wu Jun and Zhang Bin’s faces, "Wu Jun, since your disciple is so arrogant, he must be very powerful. Does he dare to take one of my strikes? If he survives, you’re free to leave. If he dies, then our enmity will be settled. How about it?"
"Your Majesty, you’ve cultivated to the Heavenly Witch Peak Realm, immensely powerful, what’s the difference between a single strike and thousands? I can’t agree to your proposal. However, if another demon strikes, then I will accept this one-strike agreement." Wu Jun replied coldly.
He’s no fool; how could he let Zhang Bin endure a strike from such a terrifying expert like Betty?
The other sea monsters are nowhere near as powerful as Betty.
Gong Wu should be able to withstand one of their strikes, at least he could preserve his life.
"Very well, I agree with you."
Betty’s face revealed a deep cold smile, and she suddenly let out a strange long howl from her mouth.
The sound was deafening, shaking the ocean into tumult.
Spreading far and wide.
"Not good, could it be there’s another powerful expert in the Sea Demon Clan?"
Wu Jun’s expression slightly changed.
Only Zhang Bin remained calm and composed.
Actually, he dared to take even Betty’s strike.
He is now countless times stronger than before.
In the past, he even dared to confront terrifying experts like You Jiuxuan.
So why not today?
"Boom..."
A terrifying sound rang out, as if countless thunders exploded in the seawater.
The sea churned, and a horrifying aura pressed from afar.
Soon after, a Jiao covered in scales came shooting over from a distance.
Its body was like a great mountain, with a sharp horn on its head.
The demon qi was extremely thick, its aura extremely frightening.
"Not good, this is a powerful Jiao, already cultivated to the Initial Stage of Heavenly Monster Realm. Gong Wu is in danger."
Wu Jun’s complexion drastically changed.
The Jiao is a powerful creature. Though its talent is not as great as a dragon’s, it’s a species bestowed only to dragons, good at combat, and born with divine power, considered the fiercest among Earth’s sea demons.
But precisely because their genes are too strong and their talents so high, whether it’s Jiao or dragon, it is very hard for them to reproduce offspring, and their numbers are getting fewer and fewer.
Originally, it was thought that on Earth today, with dragons extinct, Jiao would also be extinct and no longer exist.
Unexpectedly, there’s still a Jiao, and it’s cultivated to the Ascension Realm Early Stage.
That absolutely rivals the Ascension Realm Middle Stage.
Even Wu Jun himself is not absolutely sure he could kill this Jiao.
Jiao You Di swayed its body and transformed into a burly man.
Five meters tall, like a five-meter-high iron tower.
Exuding an utterly terrifying oppression and aura.
"Jiao Mantian pays respect to Your Majesty."
The burly man bowed respectfully, his voice especially loud.
"Mantian, fully attack that idiot for me... Make sure to kill him on the spot, because he..."
Betty transmitted her voice.
"Audacious, daring to eat so many of our Sea Demon Clan’s demons! Your Majesty, rest assured, I will absolutely kill him with one strike, turning him into a corpse." Jiao Mantian roared, a chilling murderous aura shooting from his body.
Earlier he was in seclusion, so he didn’t sense anything happening; otherwise, he would have come out long ago and killed Zhang Bin. How could it even go as far as disturbing the Sea Demon King Betty?
He jumped up, his gaze fiercely fixed on Zhang Bin who hadn’t yet withdrawn his Law Manifesting Heaven and Earth.
He also swayed his body and executed Law Manifesting Heaven and Earth, transforming into a giant man four thousand meters high, towering a thousand meters above Zhang Bin’s manifestation!
In his hand appeared a sharp spear.
Obviously, it was cultivated from the horn on his head.
It is his Life-bound Treasure, an outstanding high-grade magical artifact.
Impenetrable, extremely sharp.
And heavy as a mountain.
He looked at Zhang Bin with disdain, and coldly said in a chilling tone, "Kid, your name is Gong Wu? Disciple of the Sky Witch Sect? Indeed very strong. However, for daring to slaughter our sea demons, there’s only one outcome, to be beaten to death by me. I allow you to issue your final words. After all, I still admire the Sky Witch Sect, it is a very formidable sect."
"Hehehe, with Jiao Mantian taking action, not to mention one strike, even half a strike can kill that idiot."
"Jiao Mantian is only slightly inferior to Your Majesty, even Wu Jun may not be his opponent, sit back and watch him crush Gong Wu."
"..."
The many Protectors behind Betty sneered, looking at Zhang Bin as if he were a dead man.
"I’ve waited a thousand years for Mantian to grow. In next year’s tournament, Mantian is sure to win the championship again, but he still cannot defeat me. And without defeating me, he cannot become my husband. This is the dignity of me as the Sea Demon King." Betty murmured in her heart, a faint smile on her face.
In her eyes, Zhang Bin was already seen as a dead man.
Wu Jun also immediately transmitted, nervously saying, "Gong Wu, use all your strength, leave no reservations, the opponent is too strong, extremely terrifying, because he is a Jiao, can kill enemies despite being a small stage lower, comparable to a cultivator in the Ascension Realm Middle Stage..."
Zhang Bin nodded, and a moment later, an axe appeared in his hand, naturally the Witch God Axe bestowed by Wu Jun, but his gaze was cast towards Betty’s face, wickedly smiling, "Your Majesty, how about a bet? If he can’t kill me with one strike, you owe me a Million-Year Pearl. Dare you bet?"
