A cold look flashed across Zhan Yan's face. He just wanted to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys.

Since this Mr. Shan is disrespectful to him, he will not be polite.

He immediately ordered: "Shadow Soul, this man has committed the following offenses and must be killed on the spot!"

Just as Yinghun drew his sword, the King of Jiaodong hurriedly stopped him: "Stop, Marquis Zhan Yi, do you know who he is? He is the naval commander of the island, Shan Ning!"

Zhan Yan had heard of Shan Ning's name. It was rumored that it was he who led the charge and helped the old King of Jiaodong capture Jiaodong Island in one fell swoop.

The navy he trained was very elite, and almost all of them were good at underwater combat.

It is precisely because of their existence that Gao Youguo does not dare to covet Jiaodong Island.

It can be said that General Shan is extremely popular among the people.

Perhaps Shan Ning realized that Zhan Yan really didn't dare to kill him, so he was extremely arrogant.

He said disdainfully, "Do you know why I refuse to see you? Because you are a shameless person who relied on nepotism to rise to power. If you had not married Prince Li's daughter, how could you have gained a foothold in the court?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he cursed: "Shameless bastard, do you dare to refute what I said?"

Many onlookers also laughed, thinking that Danning's scolding was very satisfying.

Zhan Yan spoke calmly, "Shan Ning, I don't deny that I owe my current situation to my wife. You wanted to, but it's a pity you didn't get any!"

Shan Ning raised an eyebrow in disbelief: "What? Marquis Zhan Yi isn't ashamed of this, but proud of it?"

Zhan Yan nodded heavily: "You are right, this is what I think. It is not shameful to rely on your wife to get to the top. It is shameful for people like you to say that the grapes are sour because you can't eat them!"

"You!" Shan Ning almost fainted from anger after hearing what he said.

He gritted his teeth and cursed, "You shameless bastard, you dare to act so presumptuously in front of this general? Do you dare to challenge me once? As long as you can beat me, the navy on this island will obey your orders from now on!"

A glimmer of hope suddenly rose in the eyes of the King of Jiaodong. He knew this naval general too well. Although he was old, his boxing skills were very powerful.

He is particularly good at water battles. Once in the water, no one can be his opponent.

If Zhan Yan loses the competition this time, won't he have to retreat from Jiaodong Island in disgrace?

Thinking of this, his face was filled with joy.

He was the first to speak: "Zhan Yihou, do you want to fight?"

Zhan Yan narrowed his eyes and glanced at everyone, only to see that they all had contempt on their faces, as if they were certain that he would never win against Shan Ning.

He spoke without hesitation: "Shan Ning, are you willing to gamble your life with me?"

Shan Ning's eyes flickered slightly, and he subconsciously asked, "How do you bet your life?"

Zhan Yan said in a deep voice: "In our competition, only one can survive!"

A fierce struggle suddenly flashed across Shan Ning's face. He originally just wanted to give Zhan Yan a warning, but there was no need to risk his own life.

Even though he thought Zhan Yan was definitely not his opponent, he didn't want to take the risk.

Just as he was about to refuse, Zhan Yan sarcastically said, "What's the matter? So General Shan is just boasting and is actually a coward?"

Shan Ning cursed at the slope: "You're talking nonsense! Who said I was a coward? Isn't it just a gamble of life? I agree, but we have to compete on the boat. Do you agree?"

Zhan Yan didn't hesitate at all. He immediately agreed, "Okay, let's compete on the boat. Come on, bring pen and paper. I want to sign a life-or-death agreement with Shan Ning!"

The King of Jiaodong was so excited that he whispered to Shan Ning, "Old Shan, write this down clearly. If you kill Zhan Yan, the imperial court will immediately get out of Jiaodong Island. And Silver Beach will also be handed over to us!"

Shan Ning nodded: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will never let you down. Zhan Yan is just bragging, I don't believe he has real ability!"

The King of Jiaodong agreed with this. He felt that Shan Ning was right. Zhan Yan was in such a high position because of Lin Yiwan.

He definitely can't beat Mr. Shan!

Lin Yiwan was sorting out clothes with Zhan Yan at this moment. She took this opportunity to lower her voice and ask, "Ah Yan, how confident are you in fighting on the water?"

Zhan Yan soothed him gently, "Don't you believe in my swimming ability? That old fellow is absolutely no match for me. I guarantee it will be his corpse that floats up!"

Lin Yiwan understood his abilities. After so many years of fighting in many battles, he had never slacked off in his skills.

What is more important is that underestimating the enemy is a taboo.

Tannin looked down on him from the very beginning, which doomed him to failure.

She warned with a complicated look in her eyes: "I'll be waiting for you up there!"

"Yeah!" Zhan Yan responded softly. In fact, he didn't take this life-and-death contest seriously at all, because he was already certain that Dan Ning would die.

After the two of them signed their names on the document, they moved to the pond in the backyard of the palace to face each other.

Many members of the Shan family heard the news and rushed to watch the game. Among them, a woman in a scarlet brocade dress attracted Lin Yiwan's attention.

She heard someone call her Deputy General Shan!

Judging from her age, she should be Shan Ning's daughter. I just don't know if she became the deputy admiral of the navy because of her real ability or something else!

Before Lin Yiwan could figure out what was going on, Zhan Yan had already started a fierce battle with Shan Ning.

Many of Jiaodong Island's former officials cheered for Shan Ning. On the contrary, Zhan Yan's side, except for Lin Yiwan and a few secret guards, looked very miserable.

Zhan Yan was indeed extremely brave, and even on the boat, he did not show any weakness.

His moves were so brutal that Dan Ning was almost forced to defend himself and had no chance to fight back.

Until he suddenly jumped into the water, swam quickly to Zhan Yan's boat, and stretched out his hand to shake it hard.

Zhan Yan couldn't stand steadily and was thrown into the water amid everyone's exclamations.

He seemed a little uncomfortable, and the moment he fell, he choked on the water several times.

Many of the naval soldiers watching couldn't help but laugh loudly: "So the world-renowned Marquis Zhan Yi is actually a landlubber! It seems he's doomed this time!"

The old ministers also echoed: "We can't let Marquis Zhan Yi come to Jiaodong Island in vain. We must build him a crystal coffin no matter what!"

After hearing this, Yinghun's face turned ashen with anger.

He clenched his fists tightly and almost rushed out to beat someone up.

Lin Yiwan comforted him, "Hasn't your grandfather taught you before? The one who laughs last is the winner. Let them have their fun now. When the body is brought up, they'll cry!"

Shadow Soul nodded heavily: "Madam is right, our master will win!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Shan Ning had already clamped Zhan Yan. He raised his hand, grabbed his arm tightly, and pushed his head hard into the water.

As he pressed the button, he angrily questioned, "Zhan Yan, do you still dare to be so arrogant?"
