Wan Tonghui knew he absolutely couldn't let the guards capture Sikong Jing, otherwise the latter would definitely reveal his secrets. Sikong Jing's intention was to have a battle of life and death with him before deciding whether to reveal the truth.

And he could only agree!

Although he didn't know why Sikong Jing insisted on a life and death battle beyond his ability, there was really no choice but to fight.

The guards did not intend to listen to Wan Tonghui, who was just a son-in-law.

They all looked towards the second Miss Yang, Yang Li.

Yang Li frowned deeply, but finally sneered, waving her hand and saying, "You can withdraw for now. An East Plain little beast can't stir any waves in our Yang Mansion. Let Tonghui handle it."

Hearing this, the guards of the Yang Mansion felt it was reasonable and quickly disappeared from all around.

Although Sikong Jing had killed a captain, he was just a small figure who hadn't even reached the Spirit Martial Stage, and posed no threat to their noble Yang Mansion.

Finally, only Yang Li and others and the guests remained around.

Sikong Jing still stood calmly in the center of the banquet, holding Dream Stealing Captain's sword, which was dripping with blood.

At this point, Wan Tonghui took a deep breath, stepped forward, and said, "East Plain little beast, since you want a life-and-death duel with me, I'll grant your wish, showing you how great our disparity is."

Though fear gripped him tightly, Wan Tonghui still acted disdainfully towards Sikong Jing.

He wasn't afraid of Sikong Jing himself, but of the truth behind him.

Sikong Jing smiled upon hearing this and replied lightly, "I also want to know just how far our gap is."

At this moment, the True Qi within Sikong Jing's body quietly began to flow.

But the gap he referred to was different from Wan Tonghui's.

The latter despised Sikong Jing, while Sikong Jing was contemplating how the Reverse Soul Fifth Realm combined with Spirit and Martial Fusion, could defeat Wan Tonghui, who possessed a Fifth Grade Battle Body and was at the Peak of Martial Combat.

Indeed, just as Sikong Jing had previously told Yao Yulou, he was confident he could defeat Wan Tonghui.

So, this was the perfect opportunity to have a life-and-death duel with Wan Tonghui, to test his strength rigorously... meanwhile, Sikong Jing wanted to delay until Yao Yulou arrived.

Thus, he wasn't afraid of the passage of time, as he aimed to delay.

At this moment, Wan Tonghui walked step by step towards Sikong Jing...

And Yang Li thought for a moment, then caught up and said, "Tonghui, don't truly fight to the death, leave that East Plain little beast with some breath."

She did not want to kill Sikong Jing just yet... firstly, she had doubts about Sikong Jing's previous words, especially regarding Wan Tonghui's guilt towards her, and besides, directly killing Sikong Jing was too easy on him.

Wan Tonghui twitched his lips, "Leave some breath for your sister, I want to utterly silence him."

Yet, Wan Tonghui lightly nodded and continued towards Sikong Jing, eventually reaching the body of Dream Stealing Captain. He said to Jin Liwu and others around the body, "Take Dream Stealing Captain's corpse away, withdraw."

The captains could only swiftly retreat to the side upon hearing this.

Then only Wan Tonghui and Sikong Jing were left at the center of the banquet, their gazes clashing in mid-air.

However, Wan Tonghui did not make the first move immediately; he was still pondering what Sikong Jing intended to do? Why did he come alone, instead of going to complain to Duanmu Chun?

His mind was chaotic, yet he slowly drew out his sword and said coldly, "East Plain little beast, no matter your intentions, tonight it's either you die or I perish."

The last word was roared out crazily by Wan Tonghui, followed by his True Qi and Combat Body Power soaring into the sky.

He was planning to use full strength from the start...

Sikong Jing also raised his sword, responding indifferently, "Well said, it's either you die or I perish!"

Bang...

No more words, Wan Tonghui attacked first, shouting, "Ten Thousand Sword, Descend!"

Swoosh swoosh swoosh...

Swords of Sword Qi instantly flashed out around him.

They quickly transformed into the wind roll of swords, sending a terrifying aura all around. Little swords spun continuously over his skin.

That was precisely Wan Tonghui's Combat Body Power.

Sikong Jing's eyes focused, lifting Dream Stealing Captain's sword, then shouted, "Ten Dragons Chaotic Kill Sword!"

Howl...

Dragon roars resounded around Sikong Jing, though he lacked Combat Body Power, and his True Qi was merely at the Reverse Soul Fifth Realm.

At least on the surface, the gap between him and Wan Tonghui was vast...

As their auras clashed, Jin Liwu loudly warned, "Captain Wan, be careful of his strange movement technique."

Upon hearing this, Wan Tonghui's heart tightened, recalling Sikong Jing's movement technique when he challenged Weng Ting.

Instantly, he spread his Spiritual Platform's Sea power all around, ready to respond at any time... Both he and Jin Liwu felt that Sikong Jing dared to propose a life-and-death battle because he must have absolute confidence in his strange movement technique.

Thus, defending against his movement technique was crucial!

"Kill..."

In the next moment, Wan Tonghui struck out with his sword, with terrifying sword power sweeping towards Sikong Jing.

Sikong Jing raised his head, noticing the dense wind roll of swords around him, then charged forward, his body swiftly entering the wind roll, dodging the Sword Qi like a writhing Spiritual Snake...

Ten True Qi Demon Dragons roared continually around him, fiercely biting the surrounding Sword Qi.

"What arrogance, daring to enter Captain Wan's sword wind roll with just the Reverse Soul Fifth Realm," A captain sneered while watching, eyes filled with contempt.

But most captains' gazes were on Dream Stealing Captain's corpse, their lips twitching slightly.

Most captains no longer dared to underestimate Sikong Jing, as they weren't qualified; their strength was only comparable to Dream Stealing Captain.

At this moment, Jin Liwu stared intensely at the dragons within the wind roll, softly saying, "It's not that simple. Don't forget, the East Plain little beast was only at the First Stage of Reverse Soul when he challenged Weng Ting."

These words caused a sudden change in the expressions of all the captains.

That's right, just yesterday morning at the Soul Dominator Secret Institute, this kid was at the First Stage of Reverse Soul, how did he become the Reverse Soul Fifth Realm now?

Jin Liwu continued, "And he keeps saying he wants a life-and-death duel with Captain Wan. It's impossible without some assurance... Although Dream Stealing Captain was careless, he was still killed by one strike."

Everyone's eyes flickered, recalling Sikong Jing's instant defeat of Dream Stealing Captain.

They then shivered violently...

If it hadn't been Dream Stealing Captain making the move but them, they might also have become ghosts under Sikong Jing's sword.

The next moment, another captain said, "Strange, even if the East Plain little beast is confident, this is the Yang Mansion. Why is he brazenly challenging? Even if he wins over Captain Wan, what can he achieve?"

The other captains realized and were full of doubt.

Even in a life-and-death battle, if Wan Tonghui was in real danger, the experts of the Yang Mansion wouldn't stand idly by.

That is to say, in the Yang Mansion, Wan Tonghui was in an invincible position.
