"There's no way I'll use the Hope as a wager, so give up!"
Lü Zi spoke resolutely and decisively, leaving no room for Yang Zhen at all. In other people's eyes, the Hope might just be a spaceship with a mature artifact spirit, a supreme-grade dao artifact, but in her eyes, it was a friend she could rely on in life and death, a different form of Bai Yuu. No matter what, she would never use the Hope as a wager!
Seeing that Lü Zi wasn't willing to relent, Yang Zhen snorted coldly and said to Lü Zi, "Since you don't want to use the Hope as a wager, then we'll bet our lives!"
Bet our lives!
Everyone sucked in a cold breath when they heard Yang Zhen's words. Who would have thought that this commotion would actually cause someone to die? Once Yang Zhen and Lü Zi signed the wager agreement, even the Grand Duke himself wouldn't be able to interfere!
Lü Zi gave Yang Zhen a deep look. She knew that Yang Zhen wanted to use the wager to threaten her and make her change her mind, but Yang Zhen really underestimated her. She didn't fight before because there was no need, but now, whether it was to protect herself or Bai Yuu, she had to fight with all her might!
"Then we'll bet our lives!"
When Lü Zi finished speaking, everyone present was stunned. Even Yang Zhen was stunned for a moment. She really didn't expect Lü Zi's attitude to be so resolute. She would rather bet her life than use the Hope!
Yang Zhen snorted coldly and replied, "Very well, then we'll bet our lives. Let's go sign the wager agreement now!"
As she spoke, Yang Zhen had already walked toward the arena area, and Lü Zi followed without hesitation. Since they had already decided to bet their lives, there was no need to hesitate!
Seeing this, everyone followed one after another, wanting to see what kind of exciting battle would take place in this wager of life arena!
…
In the arena area, the person in charge of the arena, Wang Ming, looked at Yang Zhen and Lü Zi standing in front of him with a solemn expression.
"Yang Zhen, Lü Zi, both of you are elites of our Night Spirit Guard training camp. Are you sure you want to sign the wager of life arena?"
Hearing Wang Ming's words, Yang Zhen nodded and said, "That's right, we're betting our lives."
As she spoke, Yang Zhen turned to look at Lü Zi and sneered, "Don't tell me you're afraid now that things have come to a head!"
Lü Zi didn't respond to Yang Zhen. She looked calmly at Wang Ming and said indifferently, "Sign it."
Seeing that neither Yang Zhen nor Lü Zi had any objections, Wang Ming didn't say anything else. He turned around and took out two agreements, placing them in front of Yang Zhen and Lü Zi, and said, "There are two copies of this agreement. Sign it and it'll take effect."
Without any hesitation, Lü Zi picked up a pen and signed her name on the agreement. Not to be outdone, Yang Zhen also quickly signed her name. She put down the pen and said to Wang Ming with a smile, "Please hurry up and arrange an arena for us. I can't wait any longer."
…
On the way to the arena, a tall figure blocked Lü Zi's path.
"Lü Zi, you're too impulsive. You shouldn't have agreed to the bet with Yang Zhen."
Looking at the anxious expression on the other party's face, Lü Zi pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "Xu Feng, thank you for your concern, but this is my business and has nothing to do with you."
Hearing Lü Zi's words, Xu Feng's expression couldn't help changing slightly. "Yang Zhen targeting you definitely has something to do with me. How can you say that it has nothing to do with me?
I'll go look for Yang Zhen now. I'll definitely be able to persuade her to give up on the arena. "
"Xu Feng, you're thinking too much. This really has nothing to do with you."
Lü Zi looked at Xu Feng seriously. "I've already rejected you once before. Today, I'll make it clear that my business has nothing to do with you."
Faced with Lü Zi's heartless and cold words, Xu Feng's expression instantly turned a little unsightly. He asked a little dejectedly, "What on earth am I not good enough for?"
Lü Zi walked around Xu Feng and continued to walk forward. Without turning back, she said, "This has nothing to do with you."
Xu Feng turned to look at Lü Zi and raised his hand to urge her to stay. However, Lü Zi walked away very quickly, not giving him a chance to do so.
Below the arena, Yang Zhen looked at Lü Zi and sneered. "What? Was your lover sending you off just now?"
Lü Zi looked at Yang Zhen indifferently and replied, "You'd better think about whether or not someone will send you off when you die. It's still too early to laugh now!"
Hearing Lü Zi's words and seeing the cold expression on Lü Zi's face, Yang Zhen couldn't help staring blankly for a moment. In the past, Lü Zi had always given her the impression that she was silent and low-key, and never flamboyant. This was the first time she had seen such a strong and cold Lü Zi, and the impact on her was enormous.
But after coming back to her senses, Yang Zhen's face swiftly darkened. She had actually been frightened by Lü Zi just now!
"Acting all mysterious, I'll show you your true form later!"
…
In the arena, Lü Zi and Yang Zhen were already standing still. Wang Ming stood in the middle of the arena and looked at them. "The duel will begin in five minutes. Both parties, please get ready."
Looking at Lü Zi standing opposite her, Yang Zhen sneered. "If you have any skills later, just show them. Otherwise, it would be too aggrieving if you died without using your real skills."
In the face of Yang Zhen's provocation, Lv Zi remained silent. She had no intention of responding at all. Her attitude had completely infuriated Yang Zhen. Yang Zhen coldly snorted and took out her Life Dao Artifact. It was a black whip. Later, she would use this whip to viciously whip Lv Zi. She would beat Lv Zi until her flesh was lacerated and she would let the people below the stage see the miserable appearance of their goddess in their hearts!
Five minutes was neither fast nor slow, and it didn't take long to pass. When Wang Ming struck the ancient gong on the side, the battle was about to begin!
Whoosh!
Yang Zhen swung the long whip in her hand, which coiled around Lü Zi like a viper. In the face of Yang Zhen's attack, Lü Zi didn't move at all; she didn't resist or dodge!
Pa!
Yang Zhen's long whip struck Lü Zi viciously. Everyone immediately cried out in alarm when they saw this. However, no one expected Lü Zi's figure to suddenly turn into mist and disappear.
Seeing Lü Zi disappear, Yang Zhen was slightly taken aback before she said coldly, "Is this a smokescreen?
Break for me! "
Yang Zhen swung the long whip in her hand, and swift and fierce spirit energy swept across the arena. However, no matter how she attacked, she couldn't find Lü Zi's figure in the arena, as if Lü Zi had really disappeared into thin air and was no longer in the arena!
Just as everyone was exclaiming in surprise, Lv Zi's figure suddenly appeared behind Yang Zhen like a ghost, and a pair of white hands quietly climbed onto Yang Zhen's neck!
"I hate fighting, and I don't like killing people, but some people are always aggressive and disgusting!"
Lü Zi's low voice rang out in Yang Zhen's ears like the scythe of the god of death descending!
