Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 2491
Top ten?!
As soon as the words left his lips, the street fell silent.
It was as though crows were cawing in the sky.
ââŠâ
Everyone stared at Huang Xiaolong in a daze. Even the three beauties of the Clear Snow Palace didnât believe their ears.
Zhang Yihui of the Ancient Emperor Holy Gate roared with laughter, and he nearly tripped over himself.
âHahaha! I canât take it anymore! Lucky for you guys, I havenât eaten yet! Otherwise, Iâll probably puke in disgust.â Zhang Yihuiâs face was completely red as he continued, âA Fourth Tribulation half-True Saint dares to dream of entering the top ten! Holy sh*t! Forgive me for my ignorance, but even First Heaven True Saints might not be able to enter the top ten!â
âHahaha!â
âIâm going to die from laughter!â
Zhang Yihui held his stomach and the members following behind him mirrored his actions completely.
Dou Rui of the Devil Palace couldnât help but join in the fun. âHuang Xiaolong are you sure your mind is working properly? You might have been thinking with the wrong head!â
It didnât matter who it was. Even those who were fawning over him previously couldnât help but crack up with laughter. Ye Wufeng, who had volunteered to bring Huang Xiaolong over to the Knowledge Singularity Chamber of Commerce felt his face heating up.
Even the disciples of the Holy Heavens revealed a bitter smile.
âThirteen, are you sure youâre fine?â Lin Xiaoying reached out to touch Huang Xiaolongâs forehead. After ensuring that his brain wasnât fried from having a fever, she heaved a sigh of relief. She even thought that Huang Xiaolong had managed to hurt his brain during one of his cultivation sessions.
During the Trial of Blood, only Second Heaven True Saints had the ability to enter the top ten ranks.
No matter how terrifying Huang Xiaolongâs talent was, the trial emphasized true combat ability. It was impossible for a Fourth Tribulation half-True Saint to surpa.s.s a First Heaven True Saint, right?
âIâm fine.â Huang Xiaolong shook his head slowly as his gaze landed on Zhang Yihui, Dou Rui, and the rest. âSince youâre skeptical, why donât we make a bet?â
Dou Rui chuckled as a look of mockery flashed through his eyes. âDidnât you make a bet with Li Chen previously? You have to give them a piece of saint artifact each if you fail to qualify. Are you planning to challenge us with the same conditions?â
âSaint artifact?â Huang Xiaolong snickered sinisterly. A holy pill appeared in his right hand, and starlight filled the area instantly.
âStar Transferring Holy Pill!â
Everyone screamed in unison.
âThatâs right. This is the Star Transferring Holy Pill. After obtaining the strand of grandmist holy qi in the Purple Clouds Sea, I traded it with my masters for a hundred of these.â Huang Xiaolong looked at Dou Rui with a trace of mockery. âDo you dare to bet with me? If I fail to enter the top ten position, Iâll give you a Star Transferring Holy Pill. If I do, youâll have to give me one.â
Dou Rui stared at the pill in Huang Xiaolongâs palm, and he didnât hesitate to agree. âLetâs do it! However, a single pill is too little, donât you think?â
It would be a never-before-seen miracle if Huang Xiaolong managed to pa.s.s through the trial, much less enter the top ten. Since Huang Xiaolong was willing to hand over holy pills for free, there was no reason for Dou Rui to pa.s.s up the chance. That was a holy pill they were talking about! Only Primal Ancestors used holy pills when cultivating!
Since this was a heaven-sent opportunity for him to obtain more holy pills, he had to cherish his chance!
Huang Xiaolong revealed a brilliant smile when he heard what Dou Rui said. âHow many do you plan on betting?â Of course, he didnât forget to add a final sentence. âIt doesnât matter how many you plan to bet. However, you better be able to take them out.â
Initially, Dou Rui had wanted to bet ten pills. After all, they were free holy pills! However, Huang Xiaolongâs sentence stopped him. Gritting his teeth, he growled, âTwoâŠ. Letâs bet two holy pills.â
Zhang Yihui of the Ancient Emperor Holy Gate couldnât help but b.u.t.t in, âHuang Xiaolong, Iâll take you on!â Fearing that Huang Xiaolong would reject, he quickly added, âYou came up with the idea. No going back on your words!â
âCan someone like you even take out two holy pills?â Huang Xiaolong sneered as he stared at Zhang Yihui.
âIf Dou Rui can bring out two holy pills, why canât I?â Zhang Yihuiâs face was turning redder by the second when he realized the meaning behind Huang Xiaolongâs words.
Nodding his head, Huang Xiaolong agreed to take the bet.
Soon after, people like Xiao Lengxue and the various young patriarches of their clans joined in the bet.
When the patriarchs of their respective factions heard of Huang Xiaolongâs claims, they rushed over to join in the fun.
In the end, more than fifty people agreed to bet with Huang Xiaolong. Without wasting a second, Huang Xiaolong signed a blood-contract with all of them as they made an oath to the grand dao to honor the bet if they lost.
At the same time, Huang Xiaolong also added that the debts would be paid by their respective factions if they were unlucky enough to fall in the Ghost Devil Cty. Since everyone felt that Huang Xiaolong was comparable to santa claus, no one bothered with the details.
With the blood contracts in hand, Huang Xiaolong giggled in his heart. He wasnât afraid that they wouldnât pay up nowâŠ.
Before he made the bet, the three beauties of the Clear Snow Palace tried talking him out of it. However, why would Huang Xiaolong reject the free holy pills coming his way? He ignored all three of them, and Lin Xiaoying pouted angrily at the side. This was the first time she had seen someone acting like a wastrel! He was about to lose more than a hundred holy pills!
Even with their background, the Clear Snow Palace wouldnât be able to take out a hundred holy pills whenever they wished!
âYou⊠YouâŠ.â Lin Xiaoying glared at Huang Xiaolong and she didnât know how to chide him. âIâve seen many stupid people in my life, but I havenât seen anyone as stupid as you!â She turned around and left immediately. The whatever bloodstone no longer piqued her interest.
As a result, Tan Juan and Ji Xinyi left with their junior sister.
Huang Xiaolong might have been the rarest talent ever to appear in the Holy World. He had three complete dao saint G.o.dheads, and the Holy Mandate Imprint. However, his cultivation realm was still too low! How was he going to enter the top ten with his Fourth Tribulation half-True Saint cultivation base?
Even if a miracle happened, he wouldnât be able to do so!
Since they felt that it was impossible for Huang Xiaolong to come out on top, they were appalled that he took on the bet for more than a hundred holy pills!
Huang Xiaolong could only laugh helplessly when he saw Lin Xiaoyingâs âangryâ response. He knew that she cared for him, and he didnât blame her.
âLetâs go take a look at the Blood Devil Holy Spiritual Stone,â Huang Xiaolong turned and spoke to Chen Yi and the others behind him.
Upon seeing as Huang Xiaolong was still in the mood to buy the Blood Devil Holy Spiritual Stone, Dou Rui sneered, âHuang Xiaolong, shouldnât you be running back to your master in tears now? Letâs hope he doesnât slap you a hundred times for losing more than a hundred holy pills! Hahaha!â
It would be a miracle if Tyrant Chu didnât blow up on the spot. With his temper, G.o.d knew what he would do to Huang Xiaolong when he heard of the bet?
