None of the onlookers had expected such a shocking wager to occur in this small Mystical Beast Trading Market. They were all dumbfounded.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the two of them took three steps forward and clapped their hands to seal the wager.
The wager was officially established.
Everyone's gaze was focused on the bamboo frame between the two of them.
It was these few ordinary Lightning Cats that could decide the outcome of such a shocking wager with their choice.
The entire incident was so absurd that it felt surreal.
Although the crowd had witnessed the entire process with their own eyes, they were still confused. Why had such a wager suddenly occurred?
If Yun Yang had been the one to initiate the wager, he had indeed suggested it first. However, he had wanted to back off when he saw that the stakes were a little too high. This was something that everyone could see. In the end, Ximen Wandai had forced him into a dead end and had no choice but to take the gamble. From the looks of it, it was definitely not Yun Yang's initiative.
It did not seem like it was Ximen Wandai's initiative either. His main intention was to bully others, but who would have thought that a wager of ninth level mystical beasts would occur in the end?
All the aristocratic disciples looked at Ximen Wandai with envy and jealousy.
How could this fellow be so lucky? He had just casually strolled around the mystical beast market and he had actually come across such a lucky wager! A ninth level mystical beast!
With Ximen Wandai's skill and the wager of the mystical beast's recognition, how could it not have been a piece of cake? How could the son of a mere marquis from the Empire of Yutang be a match for the Ximen Family, one of the eight noble families?
Ximen Wandai had simply picked up a chance for his family to rise again.
…
A light flashed in mid-air as a few silhouettes descended like immortals from the heavens. It was the Ximen Family!
Ximen Wandai was finally relieved and looked at his two companions with a smug expression. He lifted his chin and said to Yun Yang, "Let's begin."
Yun Yang took a deep breath and looked at Ximen Wandai with a complicated gaze. He did not speak for a long time.
Ximen Wandai frowned, "Hmm?"
An intimidating aura emanated from him.
Do you dare not take the wager?
I'll kill you!
Yun Yang said helplessly, "Let's begin! Let's see who will emerge victorious. "He even put on an expression of anger.
Ji Ling, who was hidden in the shadows, almost burst out laughing.
You're about to kill him, yet you're still acting so helpless …
The shopkeeper was obviously frightened as well. His legs were trembling as he carried the big bamboo basket out.
The newly arrived old man standing behind Ximen Wanli was an old man with an aquiline nose. He slowly spread his hands apart and an invisible force spread out. With a shua sound, the surrounding crowd suddenly scattered in all directions, as though they had encountered an irresistible force, creating a large empty space.
Under Ximen Wandai's suggestion, the bamboo basket was tipped upside down and placed in the middle. Then, the two of them began to lure the kitten from a hundred feet away.
Yun Yang agreed after some thought.
This delighted Ximen Wandai even more.
My trap was a complete success! Moreover, this idiot had already stepped into it! Hahaha …
Among the onlookers, there were many who sighed and stamped their feet. You idiot, you have nothing on you right now. On the other hand, Great Young Master Ximen had come for the mystical beast competition. How could he not have something on him? By agreeing to this condition, you've already lost!
The shopkeeper had gathered seven or eight kittens in the middle, waiting for orders.
Yun Yang was already sitting cross-legged a hundred feet away.
Opposite him, a pile of snow-white medicinal pills and a small bell appeared in Ximen Wandai's hands. He smiled confidently.
"It's over, it's over. That idiot Yun will definitely lose!" Someone lamented.
"Yes, Ximen Wandai has the mystical beast pill, and it's of the highest grade. Not only that, he even has the mystical beast's soul bell, the ultimate weapon against mystical beasts! What right does that Yun have to compete with him? Sigh, the Ximen Clan has taken advantage of it for nothing. "
The other young master sighed.
Initially, these fellows had hoped that Yun Yang would pull an upset; they could not let the ninth level mystical beast fall into the hands of the Ximen Clan. Looking at the situation now, however, they were all in despair.
"Everyone can rely on their own methods now." Ximen Wandai said sanctimoniously, "Now, we'll start luring the mystical beast. Let's see if it will come to my side or yours."
Yun Yang put on a dumbfounded expression of grief and indignation. "Young Master Ximen, isn't it a little unfair for you to bet like this?"
Ximen Wandai said gleefully, "There shouldn't be anything unfair about this. I'm still me, and you're still you. During this process, I didn't rely on any external forces to obtain anything. Everything I obtained was what I already had on me. You are the same. This means that you and I are only relying on our own methods. From the moment Young Master Yun suggested this bet, I was like this, and so were you. Therefore, this young master feels that … "
"This is a fair and reasonable bet, and there's nothing fishy about it." Ximen Wandai said seriously, "If I were to lose under such circumstances, I would naturally be willing to accept my loss."
Yun Yang shuddered. "You!"
Ximen Wandai frowned and said word by word, "Our bet is witnessed by heaven and earth! Could it be that … Young Master Yun wishes to break the bet? "
Yun Yang dared not voice his anger. "If that's the case, I shall accept my loss if I were to lose. Consider it as making a friend."
Ximen Wandai laughed. "Young Master Yun is indeed magnanimous! If that's the case, let us begin. "
Yun Yang's face was dark as he said, "Begin! Victory or defeat is up to fate!"
The order was given amidst Ximen Wandai's triumphant laughter.
The mystical beast shopkeeper opened the bamboo basket, revealing a total of nine kittens that looked like they had just turned one month old.
Each of them looked around timidly, meowing.
On the other side, Ximen Wandai had already scattered a bunch of mystical beast pills on the ground. At the same time, his left hand channeled his skill to produce a gust of wind that blew the fragrance of the pills over.
His right hand was similarly channeling his skill, moving soundlessly along the ground to intercept any possibility of Yun Yang making the same move.
At the same time, the Profound Beast Soul Bell in the crook of his arm rang out, emitting a series of mysterious bell sounds that seemed to carry a strange rhythm...
Three killer moves had been unleashed at once!
Ximen Wandai was determined to win.
Yun Yang's expression was still one of indignation, as if he had been deceived. He sat with his legs crossed, the Endless Divine Art in his body beginning to circulate at full force. The tiny leaves of the Lotus of Endless Fate swayed, emitting a strong air of vitality.
At the same time, Yun Yang looked anxious as he stared at the nine kittens, calling out anxiously, "Kittens … quick, come to me … come, come … I'll take good care of you all …"
Laughter rang out from all around.
You're too naive …
Do you really think the kittens can understand what you're saying?
The rich aroma of the mystical beast pills had almost enveloped the entire area.
A few kittens huddled together, looking timidly from side to side as if hesitating, unsure of what to choose …
Ximen Wandai's smile widened.
He could clearly see that the kittens were looking at him more and more frequently …
A sigh came from behind him.
Ximen Wandai's expression did not change, but his eyes were sharp. Those who are sighing now are those who don't wish for the Ximen Family to obtain a ninth level mystical beast.
They usually call each other brothers, but who would have thought that they all have their own intentions behind the scenes? After this, he would have to reconsider his attitude towards them …
It was at this moment that exclamations of disbelief rang out.
Ximen Wandai's expression changed as he turned his head to look.
Among the nine kittens, two of them had actually begun to move after a moment of hesitation. They first took two steps towards him, but then stopped. They were hesitating again …
Their fluffy tails swayed loosely as they let out soft, weak cries; their wavering was obvious.
Ximen Wandai panicked.
I've already gained such a huge advantage, yet you're still hesitating? What are you hesitating for?
Come over here quickly!
Looking at the opposite side, Yun Yang was still calling out futilely, "Kittens, come quick, kittens …"
However, amidst his ridiculous cries, the two kittens who had already begun to move actually began to slowly turn around … and head towards Yun Yang!
Everyone present was dumbfounded at the same time.
"Come back!" Ximen Wandai roared anxiously, beads of sweat forming on his face.
However, the two kittens seemed to have been startled by his shout as they ran even faster towards Yun Yang! The distance of a hundred feet was not considered long; the two kittens had reached Yun Yang in an instant as they stumbled and swayed. Their four tiny front paws were raised together as they hugged Yun Yang's calf affectionately, raising their heads to meow as if to say, "Good man, protect us quickly, you've scared us to death … That person over there is so scary … He's like a lunatic …"
Yun Yang hugged the two kittens in delight, beaming with delight as he stroked them affectionately. The two kittens rubbed themselves against Yun Yang's body, trying their best to please him.
Greedily breathing in Yun Yang's scent, their faces were filled with contentment.
Everyone was petrified!
Everyone's eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.
What … what was going on?
Why was it that the one who had prepared to the teeth was showing signs of losing, while the one who had no cultivation base, no tricks, no miraculous pills, and no facilities, Young Master Yun of Tiantang City seemed to have the upper hand?
Two of the kittens had already chosen their owners.
Everyone was even more nervous now. There were hundreds of people watching, but no one dared to make a sound!
Ximen Wandai tried his best to urge his mystical Qi to maximize the fragrance of the pills, sweat dripping from his face …
Only two had passed, there was still hope!
There was still hope!
Come quickly …
Ximen Wandai prayed in his heart.
However, things did not go as he wished.
Another white kitten made a move. It raised its paw and hesitated for a moment, then suddenly made a beautiful turn.
It sprinted towards Yun Yang!
Another wave of eyeballs fell to the ground.
This time, it was even faster! Almost instantaneously, it scurried into Yun Yang's embrace, meowing happily and contentedly.
Ximen Wandai's face was as white as the bottom of a wok!
Three of them!
But he still had nothing to show for it.
The onlookers' mouths were agape and their eyes were as round as saucers, watching the unbelievable scene unfold before them like puppets, each of them feeling like they were dreaming.
This is ridiculous!
What I'm seeing can't be real!
How could such an unimaginable thing happen?
"Young master, do not panic, there are still six more." The elder from the Ximen family comforted him with a dark expression, "We still have a lot of hope!"
Ximen Wandai nodded nervously, his palms sweating.
The next moment …
All of a sudden, the remaining six kittens started to move collectively.
The previous three were what Yun Yang really wanted, while the remaining six were the real Lightning Cats.
However, even if they were third level mystical beasts, they were still mystical beasts! Perhaps their reactions would be slower, but they could still sense what was most beneficial to them in this world!
The six kittens meowed at the same time and turned around, striding elegantly towards Yun Yang. They ran faster and faster!
Their eyes were sparkling with joy, and their furry tails were wagging happily.
Ximen Wandai's face was ashen, sweat pouring down his face like a waterfall.
