Otherworldly Affairs Office-Chapter 780: The Whole Venue in Uproar (Request Subscription)

In a gentle glow, Amendina's figure disappeared in front of Pei Yan. He did not care as his earlier strike was enough to end her life. At this moment, his gaze shifted to Detrich, who, after a full confrontation with his God of Slaughter state shadow puppet, had half of his body frozen into ice by ultralow temperature cold air and shattered into ice fragments, dissipating into the void under the aftershock. The other half of his body was equally gruesome with torn muscles, and the blood flowing out had dried into a sticky layer on his scarred skin.

"Your companion abandoned you and ran away!" Pei Yan sneered as he walked up to Detrich, who fought him to the death.

"I already knew she would do that. It's her usual trick to always take men for fools, not realizing the more obvious she is, the quicker she dies." With no strength left in his body, unable even to lift his head to glance at his adversary, the oil-lamp-flickering Detrich made a final sardonic remark at his companion.

"Do you have anything you want to say in the end?" Pei Yan asked coldly, pressing a finger against his head.

Mobilizing the last trace of his essence, exerting all his strength, Detrich tried to raise his head to stare at Pei Yan, speaking word by word, "As an enemy and a defeated general, it might be excessive to make this request, but if you survive this tournament, please tell my companions about our battle. You may hide the details; just tell them I fought until the last moment."

"For honor?" Pei Yan found the request amusing and retorted.

"For my family. Knowing that would treat my family kindly."

Hearing these words, Pei Yan's mocking face turned solemn as he slowly lifted his hand from Detrich's head. It wasn't out of a soft heart to spare him a route for survival; it was because the man, after muttering these words, unwillingly closed his eyes and fell to the ground, losing the last of his vitality.

"For family, indeed! Even gods have their own families," Pei Yan remarked nonchalantly and, after bending down to make sure of his death, stored the body into a storage ring and left the parallel space.

Simultaneously, outside the Divine Artifact Space on the tournament's spectator field, the competition's dedicated glowing sphere floating midair flickered, and a figure descended from above, plummeting to the center of the arena.

The figure's appearance once again drew all the spectators' attention. Traditionally, the team competition in the Sword Tournament lasted long, ranging from three to four days to half a month. During the tournament, teams from the four great planes would wander around, constantly depleting their enemy's strength before launching a decisive battle.

However, this Sword Tournament was completely different. Even before the battle began, tensions were high. As the match started, fierce battles occurred continuously, with three contestants already dropping out within less than twenty minutes. Moreover, the Bloodshad had entered the mysterious space with five other contestants, and their life or death was unknown. The figure appearing wasn't a contestant from the tournament, but perhaps from her, they could inquire about the battle's situation within the mysterious space.

"She's from the Bloodshad! A Bloodshad has fallen!" one spectator shouted loudly, recognizing the attire Amendina wore.

Hum! The entire arena burst into a fervent discussion. Simultaneously, the Investigation Hall members sitting in the audience seats gathered around the field, watched the woman's figure intently, eager to learn about Pei Yan and the others' fate. Currently, the situation for Pei Jin and Ye Ruozai persisting outside wasn't looking too good.

As Amendina's figure appeared, the competition elder responsible for reception swiftly approached, preparing to check the contestant's condition. However, upon glancing towards Amendina, they noticed her pallid face, barely clinging to life. Her mouth opened and closed as if trying to speak. An elder hurriedly stepped up, held her wrist to check her condition, and leaned closer to her mouth, attempting to hear her words.

After a moment, the elder sighed deeply, stood upright, and shook his head at his companion, realizing what had occurred. A boy beside him turned around and loudly announced to the arena, "A Bloodshad contestant, deceased!"

Boom! The arena was shocked! A death had occurred! Only twenty minutes into the competition, and already a fatality had emerged—unprecedented in any previous tournament; the intensity of the battle was imaginable even without witnessing it firsthand.

"How did she die?"

"What did she say before she died?"

Spectators continuously asked aloud from the railing, questioning the spectacle within the arena. The elder who examined Amendina engaged in a brief conversation with those responsible for diverse language knowledge from the Immortal Palace. After understanding the meaning of Amendina's last words, he strode towards the field, gestured for silence, and the arena fell silent, waiting for him to announce the answer.

"When she emerged, she had already suffered irreversible damage, her meridians ravaged by the fiercely destructive Power of Thunder. This fatal damage was almost instantaneous, and even a self-healing array couldn't save her life. As for her last words whispered in my ear!"

After stating this, the elder pausingly glanced in the Investigation Hall's direction, speaking meaningfully, "She said 'demon,' Pei Yan is a demon!" 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"Demon?"

"Pei Yan is a demon? Who is Pei Yan?"

"You don't know Pei Yan? He is the new contestant banner of the young generation in the foundational plane, renowned in the Hell Plane. When first arriving at the Daoist Realm, he even subdued the Celestial Sword Manor and Celestial Secret Pavilion majestically. He is comparable to the Children of Origin from various planes."

The elder's words immediately ignited another round of fierce discussion within the arena. For those unaware of Pei Yan's identity, attendees explained to them about Pei Yan's reputation, especially the people from the Hell Plane and those from the Daoist Realm who experienced the recent events.

Just then, someone, unintentionally glancing at the match status indicator, noticed another red light at the Bloodshad position and, as if discovering a new continent, shouted loudly, "Look! Another Bloodshad contestant has been eliminated!"

Under his continuous shouting, more people noticed the situation, leading to another wave of discussion. Someone questioned, "The light's on; why isn't anyone being transmitted out?"

His doubt was shared by the elders at the arena. A few elders gathered to discuss the situation, then consulted the records transmitted back by the array. After repeated confirmations, the elder who announced the initial result was again pushed to the forefront, calmed his agitated emotions, and shouted loudly, "Another Bloodshad contestant has been eliminated! Status: deceased! Eliminator: Investigation Hall's Pei Yan!"
