I Truly Am The Villian Chapter 2606 2605: Life-and-Death Duel, Walking Right Into the Trap?

Precisely because of this, Jiang Changhai quickly grasped the details of the matter.

Upon hearing that Jiang Zhe was the cause, he shot a fierce glare at his son.

But after hearing the rest, Jiang Changhai was already looking furiously.

He clenched his fist and slammed it down hard.

The table in front of him shattered into pieces.

"That brat Jiang Rui is pushing things too far, this matter can't end like this."

"Come, let me as your father take you to seek justice."

Thus, the following scene unfolded.

Jiang Changhai directly informed Jiang Shoutian about the matter, wanting both sides to verify it.

After all, having finally caught hold of the opponent's weakness, he wouldn't let it go.

Ever since he failed to seize the position of Clan Leader years ago, Jiang Changhai had endured patiently.

He never gave up on the position of Clan Leader.

It's just that Jiang Shoutian's power grew increasingly vast, and he knew he had no hope.

Thus, he placed all his hopes on the next generation.

Now that his son was humiliated like this, he certainly couldn't let it go.

At this moment, Jiang Changhai arrived, having heard everything Xu Zimei said just now.

He snorted coldly.

And said, "Life and death duel, Jiang Rui, you've grown bold since last we met."

"Beating and humiliating fellow clan members for no reason, is that how your father taught you?"

In front of Jiang Shoutian, Jiang Changhai directly made indirect accusations.

His words caused Jiang Shoutian to frown slightly.

However, he also learned some of the details.

So he said, "Brother, let the children handle the children's matters."

"Why involve the adults, it would harm our relationship."

"Handle it yourself?"

Jiang Changhai mocked.

"I would like them to handle it themselves, but I'm afraid someone would use underhanded means."

"Brother, what do you mean by that? You can be straight forward," Jiang Shoutian said with a frown.

"No meaning, didn't you say you want a life and death duel? I agree, today I'll be a witness."

Jiang Changhai showed no fear.

He knew his son's skills, and Jiang Rui's abilities.

He was well aware.

With his presence on site, he wouldn't allow any foul play to happen.

When the time comes to the life and death duel, in Jiang Changhai's mind, the opponent's defeat was inevitable.

Moreover, in a life and death duel, if someone gets killed, there is no need to take any responsibility.

Thus, Jiang Changhai agreed readily.

He wanted to take this chance in front of so many people to crush Jiang Shoutian's prestige.

Nothing was more effective than killing his son in front of him.

"Bo'er, do you have confidence?" Jiang Changhai asked.

Jiang Bo promptly responded.

"Father, rest assured, I'm just afraid he's a coward, only bluffing and not daring to really duel."

With his father beside him, Jiang Bo felt utterly confident.

In his view, with so many witnesses, whoever dared to use tricks would be exposed on the spot.

So he was not afraid at all.

But Jiang Shoutian frowned slightly.

He glanced at Jiang Rui.

He knew his son's character and style all too well.

What power does he have!

Despite years of training with the clan's excellent resources, his cultivation remained stagnant.

To describe such aptitude, it's beyond ordinary; it's outright poor.

However, he didn't harbor much hope for this son initially.

It's just if others wished to kill him in person, he wouldn't stand by idly either.

He would voice his objection.

"I won't stop the life and death duel, but Rui'er isn't feeling well lately."

"He was recently attacked and I fear the duel isn't suitable right now."

"Give him some time to heal."

This reason was irrefutable.

After all, Xu Zimei was indeed attacked some time ago.

As for whether he was truly injured, nobody knew.

Better safe than sorry.

If he were really wounded, holding a duel now would be inappropriate.

The crowd also started discussing fervently.

Many began to support Jiang Shoutian.

After all, he was the Clan Leader, his power surpassed anyone else's.

And Jiang Shoutian's words carried more weight than Xu Zimei, the Young Clan Leader.

The numerous voices of support made Jiang Changhai look distressed.

He realized the tide had turned.

It's impossible to conduct a duel today.

And after today, Jiang Shoutian could easily find other excuses to brush off the matter.

He didn't want it to end like this.

But circumstances were against him.

Most people recognized Xu Zimei's injuries.

Yet, Xu Zimei stood up at that moment.

He said, "Father, my injuries have healed, a life and death duel is completely doable."

Once those words were spoken, the crowd first fell into silence.

Many had shocked expressions.

Like Jiang Shoutian and Jiang Shidai, they thought the matter was finally settled.

Why would Xu Zimei deliberately seek death?

Life and death duel, are you not aware of your own strength?

Jiang Changhai and Jiang Bo were even more baffled.

"Has Jiang Rui lost his mind?"

"Or does he have some hidden backing?"

But it didn't seem likely.

If there was some backing, Jiang Shoutian wouldn't be unaware!

The room fell silent for a moment.

Then, folks on Jiang Changhai's side began to voice their support.

"Since the Young Clan Leader isn't injured, the duel can proceed."

"Indeed, let's have the Young Clan Leader show his prowess, else how would he command respect from us at a high position?"

The crowd started discussing again.

Jiang Shoutian's face looked grim.

He shot a glance at Jiang Rui, mixed with anger.

Said, "You want to compete, then compete."

"If any life-threatening situations arise, each side will bear their own responsibility."

He was truly annoyed and angry.

He felt his son was incredibly foolish.

He was even somewhat curious.

Though his son was normally a bit extravagant, he shouldn't be this foolish!

......

"Good, good, good," Jiang Changhai never expected such a turn of events.

He promptly said.

"Let everyone here witness, let the Disciplinary Elder oversee."

Even though he didn't know what trick Xu Zimei had up his sleeve.

But since the opponent agreed, how could they back down?

Otherwise, they'd seem timid.

Jiang Changhai needed more support from everyone.

So he naturally didn't want to see such a retreat.

Beside him, Jiang Bo was also full of confidence.

You should know he wasn't some pampered brat.

He's traveled all over the Heavenly Burial Grounds for many years, having experienced numerous fights.

He's also one who licks blood off a knife edge.

This is why, at this moment, he's already imagining how to deal with Xu Zimei.

Whether to kill directly or to torture first.

At this time, everyone left the main hall together.

Heading to the designated Martial Performance Stage for the duel.

Many didn't expect to see such a lively scene on the eve of the birthday banquet.

It starts with a life and death duel!

The Martial Performance Stage is located at the Xuntian Mansion, a place specially for cultivation.
