Chapter 226 Duel
Chao Bufan shook his head and smiled, saying, "You couldn't do anything to me back then, let alone now? Su Haijun, don't think I don't know that the evil soul of the Witch God is attached to your body. You need to think this through. Although your cultivation has reached the early stage of the Yellow Realm, so has mine. Therefore, you still can't do anything to me!"
Wait a minute, this kid was clearly only at the Profound Realm just now, I saw it clearly. How come he said he was at the Yellow Realm? Did I see it wrong?
No, better safe than sorry.
"Ah!"
Su Haijun sneered and said, "Chao Bufan, since you know I am no longer what I used to be, and since you know why I came to find you, do you think I would leave empty-handed?"
Chao Bufan smiled and asked, "Did you pay people from the Crossfire Cult to come here?"
Su Haijun did not deny it, nodding and saying, "That's right, I paid to hire them, but unfortunately they are all a bunch of useless trash, and in the end I still have to do it myself."
Chao Bufan nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then let's do this! This isn't the place for us to fight, how about we go somewhere else?"
Chao Bufan was telling the truth. If they were to fight Su Haijun here, not only would all the buildings in the area be destroyed, but many innocent lives would also be lost. Su Haijun had the same thought and immediately replied, "Fine, come with me if you dare."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Haijun's figure flickered and disappeared. Chao Bufan smiled, and then his figure flickered and vanished from the spot.
In a deep mountain forest, ancient trees reach for the sky, tall and straight.
The first rays of morning sunlight filtered through the treetops, illuminating the clearing in the woods. Wisps of mist, like gauze, drifted lightly among the flowers, grasses, and trees. The chirping of birds rose from not far away, clear and melodious, awakening the mountain forest from its slumber.
A few drops of dew, crystal clear, gently slid down from the treetops and leaves, landing on the slender blades of grass. The blades, like bent-over maidens, trembled slowly, and the dew slid over the tips of the green leaves and dripped onto the earth.
On a relatively flat open space, Chao Bufan and Su Haijun stood face to face.
Su Haijun looked disdainful and said, "Chao Bufan, not only did you steal my beloved, but you also made me suffer humiliation in public. I swore then and there that one day I would make you wish you were dead!"
Chao Bufan sneered and said, "Su Haijun, aren't you going a bit too far with what you're saying? You keep saying you love Qianqian, but do you really love her?"
Upon hearing this, Su Haijun roared, "Nonsense! Of course I love her. From childhood to adulthood, I've always deeply loved her. If it weren't for you, we might..."
Chao Bufan shook his head and smiled, not giving Su Haijun a chance to continue, and said, "Su Haijun, I feel embarrassed just saying that. Okay, even if you've liked him since you were a child, let me ask you, how long have you known that woman named Julian?"
"……kindness?"
Su Haijun was taken aback, then his face turned murderous as he said in a cold voice, "You're investigating me?"
Chao Bufan sneered and said, "Do you think I'm as boring as you? During those years you studied abroad, you were thinking about Qianqian, but you were actually with that Julian. What do you take Qianqian for? Do you think Qianqian didn't know you were two-timing her? No wonder Qianqian left you."
"..."
Su Haijun was furious. He knew he was in the wrong. He loved Qianqian wholeheartedly, but he couldn't resist Julian's constant temptations. As a result, he betrayed Qianqian and fell deeper and deeper into the trap. He thought she wouldn't know, that she was thousands of miles away, and that he could just have a casual fling with Julian. But he miscalculated. He completely miscalculated.
"Su Haijun, do you know? It wasn't me who took Qianqian from you, but you who didn't hold on to her properly. Even if Qianqian wasn't with me, she wouldn't be with you, because... you betrayed her, you broke your promise, and made her lose all hope in you."
Su Haijun was speechless for a moment, then gave a cold laugh and said, "So what? Who hasn't stumbled before? Chao Bufan, don't tell me you haven't liked any other girls before you met Qianqian."
Chao Bufan laughed and said, "You know what, before I met Qianqian, I did like other girls."
Su Haijun sneered, "That settles it then."
"But I'm luckier than you, aren't I?"
Su Haijun looked disdainful and sneered, "I admit you're luckier than me, but so what?"
Chao Bufan shrugged and said, "Not really, but are you sure you can kill me?"
Upon hearing this, Su Haijun's face contorted with rage once more. He chuckled coldly and said, "Chao Bufan, if it were before, I would have truly been afraid of you, and I would have even regarded you as a hero in my heart. But today, I, Su Haijun, am no longer the same person I was. I am no longer the little minion who could only swallow his anger and be bullied by you. Now, I will let you taste what it feels like to be humiliated."
After speaking, Su Haijun stretched out his hands, clenched them into loose fists, and made a sweeping motion in the air in front of his chest, left and right. A flash of cold light appeared, and a black scepter appeared in his hands.
Chao Bufan glanced at the black scepter in Su Haijun's hand and muttered to himself: This evil one is quite generous! He actually gave him the witch's staff. I wouldn't be so generous with mine.
"Hey kid, what are you muttering about? Haven't I given you enough?"
The old man's angry rebuke immediately rang in his mind. Chao Bufan was startled, then chuckled and said, "No... quite a lot, senior. Look, even evil is willing to give him his staff. I have no confidence that I can fight against him now!"
“Boy, don’t you have a divine bone? This is a divine object just like the divine bone.”
"Oh yeah! How could I have forgotten!"
If the old man hadn't reminded him, Chao Bufan would have completely forgotten that he possessed a divine bone. Without hesitation, he moved his mind and the divine bone appeared in his hand.
When Su Haijun saw that Chao Bufan was holding something as ugly as a human spine, he couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahahaha... Chao Bufan, is this your... Pfft! Your weapon?"
While toying with the divine bone in his hand, Chao Bufan replied, "Yeah, is it that funny?"
Su Haijun wasn't stupid. If it was being used as a weapon, it must have its unique features. He didn't dare to be careless and quickly examined the divine bone in Chao Bufan's hand. He felt that the spine didn't have any energy fluctuations, but it had excellent bending properties. When Chao Bufan bent it, it immediately formed an arc shape, much like an irregular spring. He then transmitted his voice to Evil and asked, "Senior, is there anything special about the bone in his hand?"
