The gazes of the captives fell on the person who was dying from the gunshot. Wu Guiyong could only watch on as that young life passed away. He felt a heart-wrenching pain. The one who got killed was Ji Yaomi, unparalleled in martial arts as well as fighting. Wu Guiyong's heart howled in grief. Baili Lingfeng was his strongest subordinate who no one could defeat.
Since he was down now, all of them would only get killed after getting played with.
However, soone ca out at this mont. Wu Guiyong looked with astonishnt as a completely unfamiliar youth walked out and couldn't help but ask his subordinates, "Who is he? Is he from our division?"
The n on the side shook their heads.
That female dic had recognized Jiang Xiu. She wasn't expecting him to volunteer but felt it was useless as he was only walking towards his death.
The guard captain, Xiao Chu, was being supported up by soone. His head had got injured due to the explosion and was dripping with blood. He was surprised to see Jiang Xiu walk out.
On the other hand, Qiu Yinru, as well as the other students, were excited as they had witnessed Jiang Xiu's strength before.
"Big Brother Jiang, be careful!"
Jiang Xiu smiled coolly then walked into the arena. His gaze fell on ng Du, "If I win, you'll let one person go, right?"
"That's right."
"You won't go back on your word?" He had already seen how unreasonably ng Fei acted. He hadn't let even a single person go.
"Of course, I won't. Mr. Zhou Hao from Heaven's Gate can stand as the witness."
"Alright!"
Jiang Xiu nodded then waited for this original position. He looked towards Arhat. The ssage was clear. He was telling Arhat to attack him.
"You're courting death!"
The look on Arhat's face turned ugly. He was short, and his style was similar to Muay Thai, but it wasn't entirely Muay Thai. His body had already surpassed the limits of the human body, so it was probably kind of ancient fist style.
One of the ng Du's n asked the middle-aged man, "Mr. Zhou, who do you think will win?"
He was ng Du's subordinate, called as Bai Chongyi. ng Du trusted him deeply, and he was the No. 2 in the entire army after ng Du. If it had to be compared to a bandit group, he was the vice-leader.
Usually, the vice-leader has high fighting abilities or wisdom but unfortunately, this man didn't possess both but he was still able to beco the vice-leader, and the other subordinates accepted this as well.
"Hmm?"
Zhou Hao smiled and shook his head lightly, feeling sowhat helpless, "I'm not interested in anyone except for General ng."
"As for this Arhat…"
"3 moves. He'll kill him in 3 moves…"
He revealed a confident expression when saying this. After all, the mbers of Heaven's Gate were quite keen.
Bai Chongyi laughed in response to that, "Arhat has a cheat."
"He isn't normal."
Zhou Hao retorted, "So what?"
The two of them looked at the confidence in each other's eyes. The bosses have their stage while the lackeys have theirs, no one liked to be on the receiving end.
During the ti they were discussing this, Arhat had already started his offense. He jumped up then sent an elbow smash towards Jiang Xiu's head.
With the amount of strength Arhat possessed, he could easily smash a stone into pieces, so there was no difference between a head and tofu to him.
He planned to take Jiang Xiu's life with this hit.
Jiang Xiu's gaze swept across him. He took a step forward which seed like a short step, but he covered a significant distance with just that single step.
In the next second, it seed as if a thunderous sound echoed in the arena. Arhat's face suffered a hit from Jiang Xiu's palm, followed by which his face deford and was then blow away backward.
Everyone was shocked.
The result was out of their expectations.
"H-He won?"
The frontier defenders couldn't believe it. This youth had not only won but also won with such ease. The enemy was soone who even their Sir Baili couldn't defeat.
Wu Guiyong revealed a surprised expression as well and almost jumped up in joy.
"He won!"
The expressions on ng Du's n turned ugly. They had lost so badly, KO'ed by a single hit and thus lost a lot of face in front of the man from Heaven's Gate.
"This…" Bai Chongyi was stupefied.
Zhou Hao was shocked too. Arhat was at the Supre Stage. He considered the odds. He could defeat Arhat in 3 moves, but the other side had done it in 1 move.
Jiang Xiu said, "General ng, as we agreed, since I won this match, you have to release a person. You won't go back on your word now, right?"
ng Du's face turned ashen, but he still squeezed out a smile, "Of course. I, ng Du, always honor my words." However, he glared at Jiang Xiu as if looking at prey.
The captives beca restless.
"Save the commander first!"
"Yes, save the commander."
Wu Guiyong also looked at Jiang Xiu. He didn't beseech him through his gaze and just sent him a serious gaze. Naturally, it didn't lack in expressing his goodwill.
Brat, let's see if you will act with integrity or not.
"I can request to release anyone, right?"
ng Du made a gloomy face, "Yes, you can." He knew that Jiang Xiu was asking this for a reason. He also made a hidden move by letting Arhat appear at the beginning so that he could suppress all the challengers, but never expected that this brat would co out and defeat Arhat. Since the person from Heaven's Gate was here, he couldn't dare to renege.
Jiang Xiu asked another question, "If I want you to release Wu Guiyong, will you let him go?"
ng Du clenched his teeth. If his gaze could kill, he would've stared at Jiang Xiu till he died. He grunted, "My words are as solid as iron. I won't go back on my words."
The captives were overjoyed after hearing this. They revealed a cheerful look on their faces.
Wu Guiyong was the sa as well, "Young man, I still don't know your na."
"You don't need to know my na." Jiang Xiu replied.
Wu Guiyong nodded with appreciation. Indeed, a good soldier. You have inherited the fine tradition of my military district of doing a service but not asking for a reward properly.
"Alright, I'll rember you."
"Commander, take care of yourself on the way!"
"I hope you are able to escape safely!"
The captives gave various advice to the man. Over these years, the subordinates had already got used to expressing their concern for the commander. They didn't even care this much about their own parents.
ng Du said, "Wu Guiyong, looks like you have good luck today but you won't have such good luck next ti." He words were full of fury. He had grabbed Wu Guiyong to make an example out of him and show off to the people from Heaven's Gate, but it had resulted in such a ssy situation. But no matter what, he had in the end lost reputation.
Wu Guiyong didn't say anything in response to that as he was afraid of infuriating ng Du and cause him to change his plans. He turned around to leave.
"Wait a second…"
Everyone looked at Jiang Xiu.
"Did I say I'm saving you?"
"What do you an?" One of the guards asked.
"Of course, the Commander must be saved first. His identity is the most important here."
Xiao Chu and the female military doctor felt a bad premonition when they saw Jiang Xiu swept across them. "I didn't say anything when your military district's dic prioritized your soldiers, but since I won this match, I'm going to save my friends first. What qualifications do you have to call my decision into question?"
Xiao Chu got furious, "Brat, this isn't the ti to joke around. Do you know who you are talking to?"
"I wouldn't care even if he was the Emperor himself."
"I'll save whoever I want to first."
The captives beca agitated imdiately.
Wu Guiyong could make out that sothing had happened between Jiang Xiu and Xiao Chu. He asked him, "Xiao Chu, what's the matter? Did sothing happen between this young man and you?"
Xiao Chu's face turned pale, "Sir, didn't you send to cooperate with the Jingn area's adviser at the dic Station? He's that adviser. He wanted us to treat his teacher and students first, but there were too many injured n at the dic station, so the dicine wasn't enough. We naturally prioritized the soldiers." His voice gradually turned lighter as he talked.
Xiao Chu didn't think he had made a mistake, but the situation had beco like this now, so he naturally felt terrible since he was to bla.
That female dic also spoke in favor, "Those were the orders. We were just implenting our orders."
One of the other guards who seed like a leader spoke out as well, "Young man, since you are the adviser of a military district, you should know that this isn't the ti to act like this now. The top priority right now is to ensure the commander's safety."
