Ouyang Shuang's hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone. "Young Master Sheng."
"Elder Shuang, there's something I'd like to discuss with you," Huang Sheng said.
"What is it?"
Since last night's failure, Ouyang Shuang had been in an extremely unstable state. She had thought the matter was a near certainty, but it had been spoiled by a good-for-nothing. The most unexpected link in the chain had broken, leaving Ouyang Shuang furious even now. Moreover, after being injured by Wang Wu, she had to flee in disgrace.
When have I ever suffered such a loss since my cultivation reached the Innate Realm? she fumed internally. All of this was because of Xu Ke. If Xu Ke weren't already dead, he would have had to pay with his life!
"Xu Ke wants to challenge you to a life-and-death duel, with my brother's life as the wager," Huang Sheng said concisely. "If you win, my brother lives and Xu Ke dies."
