72: Street competition

"Heh! What is there to be afraid of?"

Night Owl sneered, flashing a bloodthirsty grin. "I'm just afraid that after I kill you, your Junior Brothers will cry very sadly."

After Night Owl finished speaking, he looked at the Green-Robed Youth with a smiling gaze, as if looking at food.

Trash like the Green-Robed Youth could definitely be taken out with one punch each.

Since this nourishment was delivered right to his doorstep, he would grudgingly accept it.

Seeing that the two were actually going to duel.

Gu Chen looked at the Green-Robed Youth with an expression full of amusement.

To dare face Night Owl one-on-one, this guy truly had guts.

Night Owl's true current power was at least at the Mid Heavenly Venerable stage. Dueling the Peak Earth Venerable Green-Robed Youth was like an adult fighting a baby, wasn't it?

He could already imagine the scene: the Green-Robed Youth being instantly exploded by Night Owl's punch and becoming part of the Slaughter Mist.

Mu Xueqing and Qin Fei'er's expressions also softened upon seeing this situation.

The look in the Green-Robed Youth's eyes just now had utterly disgusted them, and they had nearly attacked him.

But now that he was going to duel Night Owl, they could forgive the Green-Robed Youth.

After all, they wouldn't hold a grudge against a dead man.

"Hahaha, this kid isn't just arrogant, he's also very naive! He actually dreams of killing Senior Brother Luo?"

"Yeah, did we run into an idiot?"

"Hehe! Senior Brother Luo once managed to withstand dozens of moves from a Senior Brother who was a First-level Heavenly Venerable. Dealing with this Peak Earth Venerable from the countryside will probably only take one punch, right?"

"That's definite. It's ridiculous that he wants to kill Senior Brother Luo. He truly is a frog at the bottom of a well from the countryside."

Before the Green-Robed Youth could speak.

The dozen or so Wushuang Sect disciples beside him all burst into laughter.

The looks they gave Night Owl and the others were full of mockery.

The Green-Robed Youth was the number one Earth Venerable on the Wushuang Sect's ranking, capable of withstanding dozens of moves from a First-level Heavenly Venerable expert.

Dealing with a disciple from a small sect like Night Owl would be an absolute crushing victory, so everything Night Owl had just said was, in their eyes, a huge joke.

At this moment.

The Green-Robed Youth's face was also covered in sarcasm.

He forced a smile and said to Night Owl, "Don't worry, if you manage to kill me, not only will my Junior Brothers not cry, they'll be happy to applaud you."

As soon as the Green-Robed Youth's voice fell, the disciples next to him chimed in.

"Right, right! If you can kill Senior Brother Luo, I'll applaud you for half an hour."

"Haha, what's half an hour of applause? I'll rent out a whole restaurant and celebrate for you for an entire day."

"Exactly! If you can kill Senior Brother Luo, we'll set up dozens of tables and let you happily feast."

The group spoke one after another.

They completely failed to notice that the Green-Robed Youth's expression instantly turned cold.

His previous comment was just a joke, but he hadn't expected these disciples to join in the mockery.

Although he was extremely confident that he would crush Night Owl, the thought that if he were actually killed by Night Owl...

...these Wushuang Sect disciples wouldn't just refuse to avenge him, they would applaud Night Owl and happily set up a banquet to celebrate for him—that instantly ruined his mood.

"Hehe, alright, alright. You all just wait for the banquet."

Night Owl grinned at the dozen or so Wushuang Sect disciples, then said to the Green-Robed Youth, "Do we duel here, or go outside?"

Although the Green-Robed Youth was just a one-punch affair in his eyes.

Since the guy was about to die, he still had to respect the deceased's wishes.

"Hmph, we'll duel outside. Don't break this place."

The Green-Robed Youth said coldly and walked toward the inn's outer door.

"Fine, as you wish."

Night Owl didn't waste words and followed closely behind.

The innkeeper immediately sighed in relief upon seeing this situation.

He had been worrying that if the two parties started fighting inside the inn, the entire place would suffer.

Now that the Green-Robed Youth had proactively suggested fighting outside, it counted as helping him out.

He couldn't help but give the Green-Robed Youth a thumbs-up in his heart.

What a good person. This truly was a good person.

"Hurry and follow! Let's see how Senior Brother Luo blows up this arrogant country bumpkin with a single punch."

Seeing Night Owl and the other man walk outside, the dozen or so Wushuang Sect disciples quickly followed behind.

When the group passed the entrance.

They immediately attracted the attention of the several hundred Wushuang Sect disciples gathered there.

"What's going on? Didn't Senior Brother Luo go to clear the area? Why is he walking outside?"

"I don't know. Did something happen?"

The hundreds of Wushuang Sect disciples at the entrance saw the Green-Robed Youth walking out expressionlessly, with Night Owl following closely behind him.

They were all baffled.

At this moment, they saw the dozen or so Wushuang Sect disciples who had followed.

They immediately grabbed a few of them and asked what had happened.

"What's going on? Didn't you go with Senior Brother Luo to clear the place? Why did Senior Brother Luo head outside?"

"Tell us quickly, what exactly happened?"

A few disciples glanced at the two who had already left and hastily explained.

"Clear the area my ass! Those people not only refused to leave but also told us to scram. Senior Brother Luo is going to have fun killing those guys."

"Yeah, you wouldn't believe it. Among those people, there's a country bumpkin who isn't just arrogant, but even boasted about wanting to kill Senior Brother Luo."

"Quickly let us go! We need to go out and watch the fun."

After explaining, the disciples broke free from the crowd's grasp and headed outside.

"Holy crap! Someone actually dared to challenge Senior Brother Luo? That's a rare sight! Let's hurry out and watch."

"Go, go, go! Hurry!"

After understanding the reason, the group swarmed out the door.

The Green-Robed Youth was the most powerful person in the Wushuang Sect's Earth Venerable Realm.

Now that an outsider was challenging him, they couldn't miss this scene.

Outside the inn.

Night Owl and the Green-Robed Youth faced each other across the street.

Several hundred Wushuang Sect disciples formed a huge circle, surrounding the two men.

"Hiss, aren't those people from the Wushuang Sect? What are they doing?"

"Judging by the situation, that Red-Haired Youth is going to duel someone from the Wushuang Sect."

"Holy crap, a duel! Which power's junior dares to offend the Wushuang Sect?"

"Sigh, who knows? Looking at his clothes, he doesn't seem to be from the Three Great Dynasties. Regardless of the outcome, he won't end well."

The vendors and pedestrians on the street all stopped outside the circle to watch the excitement.

Regarding Night Owl's actions, some mocked him while others felt pity.

After all, the Wushuang Sect's reputation for protecting its own was well-known; whether Night Owl won or lost, he was doomed to die.

"Princess, this red-haired kid actually has some courage, daring to duel someone from the Wushuang Sect?"

On the terrace of a nearby luxurious inn.

A Maid-like girl.

Looked at Night Owl, who was surrounded by hundreds of Wushuang Sect disciples in the center.

Then turned her head.

And curiously spoke to a pure, noble-looking girl next to her, who was dressed in luxurious clothing.
