Silence!
The scene was deadly silent, not a sound to be heard.
Everyone present was staring, dumbfounded at the spectacle before them.
The "Son of God," Gu Xiao, had been struck on the head by Zhou Heng's "Evil-Slaying Palm," and died on the spot, becoming a headless corpse that collapsed to the ground, his hot blood flowing everywhere.
The distinguished Seventh Rank of the Celestial List, possessor of the Solar Divine Body—was he truly dead?
Could it be?
How could this happen?
Those witnessing this battle had considered the possibility of Gu Xiao losing, just as they had considered Zhou Heng losing, but they had never imagined a fight to the death that would end in a fatality.
Even though Pure Yang Palace and Solar Divine Palace had certain longstanding feuds, and their disciples often engaged in martial combat upon meeting, they were, after all, both righteous sects, not inclined to battle to the death.
But now, Zhou Heng had actually killed Gu Xiao!
