Chapter 709: Fight to the Death_1
Upon hearing these words, He Lian Xuan’s subordinates withdrew silently. As they exited the courtyard, they met Xue Yuqin who rushed over and asked, "Where’s the Grand Minister?"
"May I know what business you have with the Grand Minister?" He Lian Xuan’s trusted assistant asked respectfully.
"Su Cheng is about to duel to the death with Yin Huan, didn’t the Grand Minister know about this? Go and report it quickly," Xue Yuqin ordered.
The assistant replied, "I have already informed the Grand Minister about this matter. The Grand Minister said that a duel to the death is a rule in the cultivation world. Since both parties chose to duel voluntarily, no one can interfere."
Upon hearing these words, Xue Yuqin looked puzzled. She had seen firsthand how much He Lian Xuan favored Su Chengyu. This was a clear case of a duel to the death. Why didn’t He Lian Xuan prevent it in time?
"The Grand Minister is not planning to intervene? " Xue Yuqin asked dubiously.
"Indeed, that is the case. If you do not believe me, you can ask him yourself." The assistant stepped aside and gestured for her to proceed.
Xue Yuqin took a couple of steps forward, but then she stopped, a thoughtful look appearing on her face. She turned around and said, "Since the Grand Minister already has instructions, I have no further questions."
With that being said, Xue Yuqin turned around and left.
Meanwhile, witnessing Su Chengyu showing no intention to back down made Yin Huan unsure of his decisions, causing him to secretly wonder where Su Chengyu got his courage to sign the Life and Death Duel Contract.
He Lian Xuan failed to appear, which instead made Yin Huan somewhat apprehensive.
