Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1735: Chapter 1736: Xiao Changyi and Gong Juechen Face Off

Xiao Changyi had never fought Gong Juechen before, but now that Gong Juechen was fighting him, he naturally engaged wholeheartedly.

The two fought evenly matched, neither gaining the upper hand, with an intense do-or-die aura that made An Jing, who was far inferior in Martial Arts, anxious and continuously trying to persuade them not to fight.

But at this moment, neither listened to her, especially Gong Juechen, whose peach blossom eyes turned extremely fierce and cruel.

He thought about how carefree his Zhizhi and sister were, how he wanted to lead a simple and peaceful life with his Zhizhi. Nowadays, his sister remains carefree, and his Zhizhi had given him a daughter, who is already over a year old. Their days were happy and beautiful, but now Xiao Changyi wanted to destroy all of this, and he indeed had a murderous intent towards Xiao Changyi.

In a battle between two evenly matched experts, any concession meant defeat, but neither Gong Juechen nor Xiao Changyi conceded.

Their fight wrecked chairs and tables, and both sustained injuries and spat blood, yet neither could best the other.

Seeing both of them spit blood, An Jing couldn’t stand it anymore and rushed forward to stand between them. Gong Juechen, thinking An Jing was there to help Xiao Changyi, became even more hostile, producing three silver needles in his right hand and attacking An Jing. Xiao Changyi, seeing this, narrowed his eyes coldly as he shielded An Jing behind him, his sleeve slashed by the silver needles, and his arm wounded.

Three silver needles, three cuts, each quite deep with blood gushing rapidly.

Xiao Changyi pushed An Jing aside and simultaneously pulled a hairpin from her hair to attack Gong Juechen.

Silver needles against hairpin.

Another round of fighting ensued.

The two fought more desperately, accumulating more injuries, and by now Qin Yi and his men had burst onto the scene upon hearing the commotion. Seeing the situation, they wanted to step in and help, but Xiao Changyi shouted fiercely, ”No one is allowed to help. Today, I will properly deal with him myself!”

This clearly showed that Xiao Changyi was truly enraged.

Qin Yi and his men had no choice but to stand by anxiously, unable to assist.

Seeing Qin Yi and his men couldn’t be of any help here, An Jing had them retreat, even though they were reluctant and worried about Master Xiao’s safety—they obeyed and left.

Now, An Jing dared not step forward to persuade them anymore, fearing that her intervention would once again endanger her husband.

Just as Qin Yi and his men exited the main hall, Xiao Changyi used the hairpin to wound Gong Juechen again; this time, it didn’t just graze Gong Juechen but pierced directly into his body.

After it pierced in, Xiao Changyi didn’t stop; he grabbed Gong Juechen’s neck with his other hand and forcefully pushed him backward, slamming Gong Juechen against the main pillar. Also, as Xiao Changyi pushed Gong Juechen, Gong Juechen’s silver needle pierced into Xiao Changyi’s body.

Xiao Changyi disregarded everything, heavily pushing Gong Juechen against the main pillar, forcing him to spit out another mouthful of blood, and then tightened his grip on Gong Juechen’s neck, as if he was about to snap it.

”Calmed down yet? If not, I don’t mind killing you!” Xiao Changyi’s eyes were filled with ruthless intent.

If he genuinely wanted to kill Gong Juechen, he could’ve done so when he grabbed Gong Juechen’s neck.

But if Gong Juechen insisted on leading Slayer Tower down an evil path, he truly wouldn’t mind killing Gong Juechen right now.

Truthfully, he didn’t want it to come to this, but what else could he do? Gong Juechen wouldn’t listen to reason, and to prevent more suffering and misery in the future, he would, despite a lifetime of guilt and a troubled conscience, kill Gong Juechen right here and now.
