Chapter 242: Chapter 237: Who the Winner Is—Only I Decide

At that moment, everyone’s expressions varied,

Mo Zhening and Tian Xuan looked pleased,

while Mo Yan’an and his group appeared somber and shocked.

"Take the Young Master and leave quickly!"

After a brief moment of astonishment,

Arrow Concealment suddenly threw Mo Yan’an towards the heavily injured Yan Shan, and then he charged towards Gu Zhan like a tiger descending the mountain. His figure was as elusive as a ghost as he dashed forward, extending his hand to retrieve the bow and arrow he had discarded on the ground.

However, just as he was about to grasp the bow and arrow,

a Flying Saber shot over, striking the bow and arrow, sending them flying. At that same instant, Gu Zhan charged forward, disrupting the wind and rain, and threw a powerful punch. In that instant, the earth trembled, countless stones and dirt erupted, and within the blink of an eye, his fist appeared before Arrow Concealment.

This punch was filled with immense killing intent,

even the torrential rain seemed to be imbued with a murderous aura.

Arrow Concealment slightly leaned back, countering with a punch of his own.

Strands of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi instantly converged, seemingly containing a force capable of moving mountains, gathering between his fingers.

"Boom"

With a loud bang,

Arrow Concealment spat blood, flying back and crashing to the ground, his eyes filled with shock.

At the same time,

Gu Zhan threw out two Flying Sabers, tracing two arcs of light in the air, directly blocking Yan Shan, who was trying to escape with Mo Yan’an.

Arrow Concealment smacked the ground and stood up, shouting furiously, "I don’t believe you’re this strong!"

Immediately, he once again swung a punch towards Gu Zhan.

This punch carried tremendous Qi Power, oppressive in the storm and chaos, an overwhelming force of fist power and intent, Arrow Concealment had burned his life essence, giving it his all.

Gu Zhan remained expressionless, showing no intention of dodging, advancing forward to return the punch,

Killing Fist,

an endless surge of killing intent.

Boom!

The two fists collided,

Arrow Concealment’s arm suddenly twisted like waves, skin and flesh tearing, his entire body blasted backwards, crashing straight through the city wall!

Dust rose in waves, and a large section of stone bricks shot into the sky. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Mo Yan’an and his group watched this scene in disbelief,

this was Arrow Concealment, who had been in the Fifth Realm for years, regarded as one of the top below Grandmasters. Though he didn’t use his bow, he was undoubtedly a standout in the Fifth Realm, given his foundation, yet in just a moment, he was beaten like this,

so easily defeated?

Such a formidable opponent, so easily defeated before Gu Zhan!

Gu Zhan,

merely a newly emerged prodigy!

"Ah!"

With a sharp cry soaring to the sky, Arrow Concealment, covered in dirt, fell from the city wall, blood dripping from his mouth, one arm already broken.

Gu Zhan reached out and retrieved the bow and quiver Arrow Concealment had.

"What a fine bow, what fine arrows!"

Gu Zhan had also cultivated in Archery, and he had some mastery in the Dao of Archery, naturally understanding bows and arrows more than others. In the moment he grasped that bow and arrow, he could sense that this was a rare set of bow and arrows under heaven.

In an instant, he bent the bow and nocked an arrow,

then shot it,

The Feathered Arrow pierced through the rain curtains, into Arrow Concealment’s body.

With a "thud" sound, the Feathered Arrow pierced through his chest, blood splattering,

"I’m not resigned, your victory is dishonorable..."

Arrow Concealment’s eyes were filled with unwillingness,

he stared at Gu Zhan, slowly falling,

he felt truly unwilling, if he had held the bow and arrow and fought Gu Zhan honorably, he couldn’t believe he would lose so thoroughly,

but for Mo Yan’an, he forsake the arrow, and clashed brute force with Gu Zhan,

yet he wasn’t at his best in a direct clash,

he shouldn’t have lost so humiliatingly.

Gu Zhan sneered and said, "Your greatest strength is Archery, but my greatest strength isn’t Fist Technique!"

"Boom"

Arrow Concealment fell to the ground, the falling stone bricks from the city wall instantly buried him.

At this moment,

Mo Yan’an and the others were all stunned,

They couldn’t believe it,

that Arrow Concealment had died just like that, not even giving them time to escape.

"Gu Zhan!"

Mo Yan’an forced himself to calm down in the blink of an eye and shouted, "There is still room for reconciliation between us. You have unparalleled talent and strength, and I have a top-tier force in the world. We two are the ones who should cooperate most appropriately..."

"Swoosh"

Another feathered arrow shot out, piercing through the curtain of rain.

At that moment,

Yan Shan stepped in front of Mo Yan’an, thrusting out his long sword, which although seemed slow, was actually incredibly fast to block the front, but by then, the feathered arrow had arrived!

The sharp arrowhead, carrying immense power, struck the tip of Yan Shan’s sword.

A slight collision sound was heard, the long sword shattered piece by piece, scattering like golden sand, flying and dispersing amidst the heavy rain.

However, the feathered arrow did not stop,

pausing for a brief moment, it pierced through Yan Shan’s chest with a hiss, taking a spray of blood and an entire shoulder, turning into a stream of light, disappearing into the distance.

A huge bloody hole appeared in the chest,

Yan Shan collapsed onto the ground with a crash, blood flowing into the puddles, spreading continuously around, lying in a pool of blood, his body twitched slightly a few times before it stilled.

[Experience Points +4 million]

The heavy rain poured down, the raindrops beating on Mo Yan’an’s pale face, suddenly feeling somewhat ridiculous, not long ago, he was mocking Mo Zhening for being caught in his own web, now, he found himself in the same situation,

caught in his own web, with no one to rescue.

But, he was really unwilling to lose,

to just Gu Zhan, an opponent he had never really considered a serious threat from beginning to end, in his view, this was just an enemy with strong talent, but ultimately had not yet matured, he had plenty of time to deal with such an enemy,

yet, he lost in his hands like this,

"Gu Zhan!"

Mo Yan’an said deeply, "Is there really no room for reconciliation?"

Gu Zhan did not speak, reaching out to grab the long sword from Yan Shan’s hand.

Mo Yan’an hurriedly said, "If you kill me, you will not be able to establish yourself in the Canglan Dao, even in the Yunxi Land, you will have no place to stand, I am, after all, the Eldest Young Master of Canglan City, I am the son of the Nu River Dragon King, if you kill me, do you think Mo Zhening, with his character, would offend the Dragon King to protect you to the death?

Gu Zhan, Mo Zhening is not a wise ruler, he seems mediocre and indecisive, but he is actually the most ruthless and unprincipled person, he would not protect you to death, why put yourself in danger for him?"

"Nonsense!" Mo Zhening shouted loudly: "Gu Zhan, don’t listen to him, I would never let anything happen to you, you helped me, I will never let you down, I won’t let anything happen to you!"

"Ha," Mo Yan’an sneered and said, "Mo Zhening, do you believe yourself when you say that? When my father holds you accountable, would you dare to offend him for Gu Zhan?"

"Pfft"

In that instant, the long sword pierced through the chest,

Mo Yan’an’s whole body trembled, his body slowly collapsed, eyes complexly looking at Gu Zhan.

Gu Zhan softly said, "Don’t worry, you may have lost, but Mo Zhening hasn’t won either. The winner of this upheaval, I, Gu Zhan, decide that."

Gu Zhan released the sword hilt,

Mo Yan’an showed a slight smile on his face and collapsed heavily.

"Brother Gu, you came just in time!"

Seeing Mo Yan’an fall, Mo Zhening heaved a long sigh of relief, supporting Tian Xuan, he walked over with a smile on his face, saying, "Brother Gu, fortunately, you came!"

Gu Zhan didn’t speak.

Mo Zhening continued, "Brother Gu, don’t take Mo Yan’an’s sowing discord to heart, rest assured, you help me accomplish things, I will never let anything happen to you, later when my father holds accountability, I will take the responsibility, later on, when I inherit the Beidou Bang, you will be second only to me!"

Gu Zhan looked at Mo Zhening, suddenly reaching out to grab the long sword dropped by Mo Yan’an on the ground.

In that instant,

Tian Xuan’s pupils shrank, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, suddenly shocked, he pushed Mo Zhening away and shouted, "Fourth Young Master, run..."

At the same time, he palm-struck at Gu Zhan,

"Puff"

In an instant, Gu Zhan wielded the long sword, piercing through Tian Xuan’s palm, then through his chest, quickly withdrawing, blood sprayed everywhere.

Tian Xuan widened his eyes, blood streaming from the corner of his mouth, collapsing onto the ground with a crash.

[Experience Points +4 million]

The heavy rain washed down, blood spreading.

Mo Zhening, who was pushed several yards away, felt like his feet were as heavy as a thousand pounds, unable to move, he stood terrified in the rain, stammering, "Gu... Gu Zhan, you... what are you doing, you..."

Gu Zhan gently discarded the long sword in his hand, instantly piercing through Mo Zhening’s chest, his body staggered backward, pointing at Gu Zhan in disbelief, said, "You... you... why..."

Gu Zhan said flatly, "Who is the winner, I, Gu Zhan, decide."

"Bang"

Mo Zhening, eyes full of unwillingness and confusion, collapsed to the ground.
