Wu Changkong's Sudden Attack and Threat

"Just for your insults, this matter will not be let off so easily." Wu Changkong's gaze turned even colder.

"And what do you intend to do if it isn't?"

"Kill me?"

"This is the Spirit Pagoda. I'm one of its people, and I haven't committed any unforgivable crime. The Spirit Pagoda's experts certainly won't stand by and watch me come to harm."

"Do you think you can fight the entire East Sea Spirit Pagoda alone and kill me?"

"If you can do it, then go ahead. If you can't, you'd better leave now instead of wasting time here." Shiyu did not want to waste too much time entangled with him. His time was limited.

"I'd like to try." Wu Changkong was hardheaded as well. The moment he spoke, he shot forward and summoned his Frost Sword, intending to cripple Shiyu with a single strike.

The sudden attack caught even Vice Tower Master Li off guard.

Mainly because he had been certain that the other party would not dare cause trouble in the East Sea Spirit Pagoda, so he had let down his guard somewhat.

Who would have thought that Wu Changkong was so headstrong, attacking the instant he said he would?

"How dare you!" Vice Tower Master Li roared. By the time he reacted, it was already too late.

Fortunately, Shiyu had been on guard the entire time. The instant Wu Changkong moved, space gave him the most direct warning.

Without the slightest hesitation, he used Teleportation and vanished from where he stood, causing Wu Changkong's sword to stab empty air.

Wu Changkong frowned. He was a Spirit Saint, and his sword strike had been exceptionally swift. Yet Shiyu had still managed to evade it?

"What are you doing?!" Gu Yue's furious voice suddenly rang out.

After stopping, Wu Changkong turned around to see that the vanished Shiyu had appeared behind the sofa. The Eight Spider Lances spread out from his back, six aimed at Tang Wulin, while the other two were pointed at Xie Xie and Xu Xiaoyan's throats.

They had already pierced some flesh. If he wanted to, he could even use the Eight Spider Lances to run their bodies through.

"You're courting death!" Killing intent radiated from Wu Changkong as he prepared to kill Shiyu.

"If you want your three students dead, then go ahead and attack." Shiyu threatened in a low voice, a vicious look on his face.

He pushed the Eight Spider Lances Soul Bone in a little deeper, making Tang Wulin and the others reveal pained expressions.

Purple venom spread from the places where they had been pierced. They had already been poisoned.

"No, don't!" Gu Yue stopped him in a panic, her heart aching at the sight of Tang Wulin's suffering.

She was even more afraid that Shiyu would truly turn ruthless and kill Tang Wulin.

The scene of his spider-leg soul bone killing Tang Wulin and the others in the Spirit Ascension Platform was still vivid in her mind.

She truly feared that he would directly tear Tang Wulin's body apart in reality as well.

Wu Changkong stopped too, not daring to act rashly. His icy gaze was nearly solidifying into frost.

Vice Tower Master Li quickly moved to Shiyu's side, astonished by his performance. He had avoided a Spirit Saint's sudden attack without so much as a scratch.

He had even seized the opportunity to restrain the other party's prized students and use them as leverage. His response had been flawless.

Thinking of this, Vice Tower Master Li could not help feeling somewhat ashamed. As a Soul Douluo, his own performance had been overshadowed.

"Wu Changkong, you dared to attack and kill a genius Spirit Master of the Spirit Pagoda inside my East Sea Spirit Pagoda. Are you looking to die?!" Vice Tower Master Li shouted angrily. He truly wanted to kill Wu Changkong.

If Wu Changkong had succeeded in killing Shiyu, how was he supposed to explain it to Tower Master Qian Gu?

What Wu Changkong had done was no different from ruining his life, perhaps even cutting off his path to survival. How could he not be furious?

"Vice Tower Master Li, can you really kill him?" Shiyu spoke up at the right moment.

Since Wu Changkong wanted him dead, there was no reason for him to let the man off easily.

"This..." Vice Tower Master Li hesitated for a moment before nodding.

"If you wish it, I can kill him at any cost." Vice Tower Master Li did not mind doing Shiyu a favor at this time.

More importantly, attacking Wu Changkong was justified and within the rules. His earlier attack had already given Vice Tower Master Li a legitimate reason.

"Then kill him." Shiyu said viciously. This was a somewhat difficult decision for him.

Anyone who had never killed someone, or ordered someone else to kill, would find it hard to take that first step.

But he still forced himself to make the decision, repeatedly telling himself that this was a world with extraordinary strength, where killing might be unavoidable.

Moreover, the other party had attacked him first and had even intended to kill him. Since that was the case, why should he speak of morality and righteousness with him?

Perhaps there were people generous enough to forgive others with a saintly heart, but he did not want to be one of them.

"Wu Changkong, you don't want your three students to die like this, do you? If you want them to live, then slit your own throat here."

"As long as you kill yourself, I guarantee I won't harm them. How about it?" Shiyu wanted to simplify matters.

Wu Changkong did not answer, merely tightening his grip on the Frost Sword.

"Unwilling, or simply unable to say it?" Shiyu asked with a smile.

Wu Changkong still remained silent. He wanted to save Tang Wulin and the others, but asking him to sacrifice himself for them was unrealistic.

"If you dare harm them, I swear I'll kill you at any cost." Wu Changkong warned viciously.

It was no easy thing to make someone with such an icy face show such a fierce expression.

"Heh, still spouting nonsense. You know such threats are meaningless, so why say them at all?"

"Even if I stopped now, would you let me go?" Shiyu mocked.

"Release Tang Wulin now, or the price will be more than you can bear!" Gu Yue spoke angrily, desperate to save Tang Wulin.

"Sure." Shiyu nodded directly and looked at Gu Yue.

"Then let him go already!" Gu Yue urged anxiously.

"I can release him, but if you want me to let him go, how can you not offer some ransom?" Shiyu said with a smile.

He truly did not want to kill Tang Wulin right now, mainly because the guy's grandfather was the Plane Master. Threatening his life might not amount to much.

But if he actually killed him, the Plane Master might not stand by and do nothing.

Threatening someone's life and actually killing them were two different things.

There was no need for him to take things that far. At present, he did not have the strength to contend with a Plane Master.

Besides, if he truly killed Tang Wulin, Gu Yuena's wrath would not be easy to endure either.

The Golden Dragon King Bloodline within Tang Wulin would either perish along with his death or be directly unsealed.

Neither outcome was ideal for him.

After all, if the bloodline perished, he would have no way to obtain the Golden Dragon King Bloodline. If it was unsealed, it would have even less to do with him—he did not think he could deal with the Golden Dragon King.

Compared to killing Tang Wulin, he would rather use Tang Wulin as a bargaining chip to demand benefits. That was the best choice for now.

"Just tell me what you want. I'll give you anything I can," Gu Yue said, seemingly regardless of the cost.

Shiyu shifted his body slightly so that the others could not see the movement of his lips. Only Gu Yue could.

Gu Yue understood Shiyu's lip movements. Her brows knitted tightly, but she did not agree immediately.

Why does he want my blood? Does he know about my special nature? Gu Yue's thoughts raced, and she felt that was the most likely possibility.

Ordinary human blood was useless, but she was no ordinary human. Her blood contained Silver Dragon Power, and its value surpassed that of the vast majority of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

Yet he was demanding ten drops at once. That clearly meant he knew the value of her blood.

Gu Yue was shocked and flustered, yet she tried her best to remain calm as she looked at Shiyu without revealing anything unusual.
