Liu Qing's sudden appearance brought the atmosphere under the Life and Death Arena to a climax.

"Oh god, quickly look. Is the sword in Liu Qing's hand a high-grade human-step sword? It seems like it's called the Heavenly Dipper Sword. I remember that it belongs to the inner disciple, Liu Hong."

"Don't you know that Liu Hong is Liu Qing's cousin? In the eyes of the Liu Family, Chen Yao must die. But, is it not that the Liu Family is too shameless? Originally, Liu Qing was an outer court disciple of the 8th level of the Qi warrior, but now, he is even using a high-rank Mortal Realm weapon.

"In that case, does that mean Chen Yao will lose without a doubt?" All these years, we servants have had enough of bullying. Chen Yao was willing to stand up for us, and even made such a bet for the benefit of our service disciples and Inner Sect Master Liu Hai.

"Sigh, I can only pray that Chen Yao dies a little more straightforwardly, so that I won't be tortured."

For a moment, the entire area below the life and death arena was filled with sighs of despair.

As far as everyone was concerned, there was absolutely no possibility of Chen Yao winning. To Chen Yao, the greatest victory was to die a little more straightforwardly and not suffer too much.

Time slowly passed, and the scene began to become chaotic.

Because it was already noon, Chen Yao actually did not appear. Moreover, after searching the entire sword faction, he could not find any trace of him. Could he have escaped?

"..."

"Sect Leader, can we directly announce Liu Qing's victory in this gambling match, or directly cancel this gambling match? It would be too boring for so many disciples to wait for a dead person who would never appear here. "

On the peak of the life and death arena, some of the higher ups of the sword faction stood together, and the one leading them was Bai Yixue, Luo Tian …

They had just returned from the Immortal Sword Peak, and sent the Grand Ancestor, Martial Aunt Jian Yu, to the Heavenly Sword Peak's Grand Elder's Association. After asking those old fellows to help heal their injuries, they all rushed over here.

It was said that there had been two semi-sage realm experts that had entered the Demon Suppressing Valley in the sword faction, but they had never come out. The danger of that place was enough for one to imagine how a peak of the Body realm brat could have escaped alive.

Liu Hai was very proud. He had done all he could to make Chen Yao die. Who knew that it would be so simple?

Luo Tian was displeased with Chen Yao's accident. He initially wanted to rely on Chen Yao to suppress the Liu Family's arrogance. Who knew that Chen Yao would have such bad luck?

Luo Tian shook his sleeves with a look of anger on his face.

"Sect Leader Liu, are you witnessing Chen Yao's death with your own eyes or did you not expect him to be the one who gave up this match? The sword faction has a rule, once both sides set up a life and death arena, unless one side dies or the other side voluntarily admits defeat, it would be better to not have anyone with the qualifications to stop this competition. What, does Sect Master Liu think that you have more authority than me in the sword faction? "

"I …"

Liu Hai was choked by Luo Tian's words, and he quietly shut his mouth.

However, Chen Yao was feeling extremely proud. Chen Yao was definitely going to die and he would never appear on the Life and Death Arena. Hmph, the Liu Family won this round.

"..."

Time passed slowly.

Everyone below the life and death arena was in an uproar. Where did Chen Yao go?

Other than the sword faction's upper echelons, no one knew that Chen Yao had fallen into the Demon Suppressing Gorge. Therefore, the scene at this moment was very chaotic.

"Say, do you think that Chen Yao did not escape just before the battle?"

"That's right, it's very possible that if he were to fight against Liu Qing, he would be courting his own death. In the worst case scenario, Chen Yao might really run away."

"It can't be. I feel that Chen Yao is not that sort of person."

"..."

When the sun was just about to set, Liu Hai finally could not hold it in anymore.

"Sect head, this sword faction also has a rule. If one party doesn't appear during the gambling match, the other party wins, right?"

The reward for winning the competition was not very precious to the Liu Family. However, if Liu Qing could win, then it would indirectly explain the Liu Family's status in the sword faction. Then, everyone would be afraid of the Liu Family and would not dare to infringe upon the Liu Family's interests.

In other words, the Liu Family was using the resources of the sword faction to cultivate their own disciples.

If Chen Yao broke through this situation, it would be very passive for the Liu Family.

Luo Tian looked at the setting sun, let out a long sigh and said, "Tell these disciples the news of Chen Yao's death. Although the fact that the Grandmaster was injured cannot be easily spread out, Chen Yao died to save the ancestor of the Sword Rain Sect. He is a meritorious general of our sword faction, so give him a proper excuse."

Liu Hai was ecstatic, but he pretended to be calm.

The old fox would never easily show his true colors.

"Elder Zhao, I'll leave this news to you to announce. After all, you're the referee for this Martial Arts Competition." Liu Hai looked at Elder Zhao Gongming and said.

Elder Zhao's face was full of anger, he turned his head away and ignored Liu Hai.

Liu Hai let out a long sigh and said, "Sigh, such a good seedling like Chen Yao. He encountered so many troubles one after another, and now he has even lost his life. Sigh, after all, he was once a member of my inner sect."

This person was too hypocritical, too shameless.

However, among the higher-ups present, other than Sect Leader Luo Tian and the three or four powerful Punishment Elder, the other seven or eight people looked the same as usual. Obviously, they were colluding with the Liu Family.

Liu Hai leaped up and floated above the life and death arena, his voice filled with true essence, as he loudly said, "Disciples, just now I learned a very unfortunate piece of news. In order to save a herbalist on the mountain, Chen Yao was killed by a demon beast of the Spiritual Realm.

"What?" Chen Yao is dead? "

"Impossible, impossible.

"How could it be such a coincidence that we want to see Chen Yao's corpse? Did the powerful warriors of the Liu Family harm Chen Yao? "

"Return our senior brother Chen Yao."

"..."

For a moment, the crowd was enraged as they started to speak the truth.

Everyone, be quiet. Chen Yao was once a disciple of my Inner Academy, and I like him a lot. His corpse has already been eaten by wild beasts, so if you don't believe me, you can ask the Sovereign. "

This old fox had actually pushed all the trouble onto Luo Tian.

However, he didn't expect that Chen Yaotian would be able to take back these service disciples within a few days. If Chen Yao didn't die, it might cause quite a bit of trouble for the Liu Family's development in the sword faction.

Fortunately, Chen Yao was dead.

On the stage, Liu Qing was stupefied. He also couldn't believe that Chen Yao had died just like that? He also suspected that Chen Yao was killed by the powerful warriors of the Liu Family.

However, there was no reason. The bet was won by him. For the Liu Family, killing Chen Yao in the arena was the most valuable thing they had in the sword faction.

Uncle Liu Hai personally went to Sister Liu Hong to ask for this high-grade human-step treasure sword. Just in case, how could he possibly secretly harm Chen Yao?

In that case, had Chen Yao really been killed by a demon beast?

So Liu Qing said loudly, "Stop arguing, don't tell me my uncle needs to secretly harm Chen Yao? With my strength, I will enter the arena. Do you really think that Chen Yao can beat me? "

For a moment, everyone was silent.

Although Liu Qing's words weren't pleasant to hear, they were the truth.

Liu Qing sighed and said, "What a pity. I originally wanted to brutally kill Chen Yao in the arena, but now it seems that I won't have the chance. What a pity."

"Is that so? "Then I'll give you what you want!"

Suddenly, from the furthest reaches of the life and death arena, a calm yet mocking laughter could be heard from the outermost reaches of the crowd.
