"Father, he …" The latter's hands trembled. His eyes were full of disbelief as he received the talisman.
Lin Biqiu and Du An's expressions changed as they looked at the talisman nervously.
"You said that it's a Flying Escape Talisman? How can you prove it? "Lin Biqiu frowned and said.
"Both of you have seen the world. You should know that a high-grade talisman can only be drawn with high-grade talisman paper, right? Do you recognize the Purple Cloud Talisman Paper used to draw this Flying Escape Talisman? Can you see the Spirit Qi contained in the runes? "Shen Luo seemed to have expected this and said unhurriedly.
"Of course we can recognize the Purple Cloud Talisman Paper. We can also see that the talisman is not ordinary. But, this can't prove that it's a Flying Escape Talisman, right?" Lin Biqiu snorted and said.
"Yes! Unless you activate the talisman and let us see it, "Du An hurriedly echoed with a slightly nervous expression.
"How can this be? Once the talisman's gallbladder is ignited, it will consume spirit energy. Who will pay for the loss? "Bai Xiaoyun immediately retorted.
Lin Biqiu hesitated for a moment. Then, he clenched his teeth and said, "I will pay for it. As long as you can prove that this is a Flying Escape Talisman, I will add five more celestial jades as compensation."
"You are not afraid of having too much money. But, I don't want this talisman to be damaged! Let's each take a step back and forget about this bet. How about it? " Bai Xiaoyun said after a moment of hesitation. He had already believed that this talisman was a Flying Escape Talisman. So, he naturally didn't want it to be damaged.
Shen Luo heard this and praised Bai Xiaoyun even more in his heart. This guy looked frivolous, but he actually knew how to weigh the pros and cons.
However, as soon as he said this compromise, Lin Biqiu and the other man's thoughts turned back.
They originally thought that it was suspicious for a small guest to bring a Flying Escape Talisman. So, they naturally thought that the talisman in Bai Xiaoyun's hand was fake and didn't dare to test it.
"I think Young Master Bai has a guilty conscience. Since you don't dare to test it, it's better to admit defeat openly," Du An said with a smile.
Although Lin Biqiu didn't say anything, there was a trace of provocation in his eyes. He wanted Bai Xiaoyun to show it on the spot.
Bai Xiaoyun frowned and hesitated.
"Second Young Master, let's just give it a try. In any case, the Family Head has allowed me to bring the talisman over, which means that he has tacitly agreed that you can use the talisman. Although this talisman is precious, five Immortal Jades should be enough for one use, "Shen Luo said with a smile.
"Alright, let's give it a try. Lin Biqiu, Du An, you two open your dog eyes and watch carefully. "Bai Xiaoyun calmed down and said after he heard that.
Shen Luo immediately walked forward and grabbed the flying talisman with one hand and Bai Xiaoyun's wrist with the other.
"Rise!" He shouted.
Suddenly, a green light gushed out from the purple talisman and enveloped the two figures. Before the others could react, they had already risen from the ground and soared into the sky. They were like immortals riding the wind as they flew towards the distance at an extremely fast speed.
Bai Xiaoyun only felt that his body was light and agile. The wind whistled in his ears and his eyes were a little blurred by the strong wind. However, he felt unprecedentedly carefree in his heart.
He bent down and looked down. He saw that Jianye City, which was hundreds of feet above the ground, seemed to be crawling under his feet. Even the tall city walls in the distance seemed much smaller.
Shen Luo was different from him. He didn't look down at the scene below. Instead, he focused his mind and carefully felt the consumption of spiritual energy on the flying talisman and the change in flying speed.
He had only tried it once in the dream before. At that time, he was in the Out-of-Body Stage. Now, he was in the Qi Refinement Stage. In terms of effectiveness, there wasn't much difference. The consumption of magic power was also within the acceptable range.
On the other side of the alley, Lin Biqiu and the others were still looking up at the sky with disbelief on their faces.
"He actually brought out the Flying Talisman …" Du An's Adam's apple bobbed. His face instantly became very ugly as he muttered to himself.
Lin Biqiu's eyes were gloomy. No one knew what he was thinking.
That was a total of fifteen celestial jades. Even for disciples of aristocratic families like them, it was definitely not a small sum.
At this moment, a green light fell from the sky. Shen Luo and Du An had flown back and landed in front of them.
Bai Xiaoyun held a lunchbox in his hand. After opening it, six pieces of exquisite pastries were revealed. He smiled and said:
"In order to prevent you from saying that I cheated, I specially went to the Qing Yue Zhai in the east of the city and bought their unique Osmanthus Cake. Do you want to try it?"
"You win." Lin Biqiu didn't have the slightest intention of denying.
"Haha, it's good that you admit defeat. When you see me in the future, call me 'Big Brother' obediently." Bai Xiaoyun's face was full of smiles. It had been a long time since he was so happy.
Lin Biqiu opened his mouth but no sound came out.
"Big … Big Brother." At this moment, a somewhat awkward voice was heard. It was Du An who had already accepted his fate.
Compared to taking out ten celestial jades as compensation, he was more willing to endure this moment of humiliation.
"Haha, Second Brother, not bad, not bad. Lin Biqiu, you're one step too late. You can only be the third brother. "Hearing him call him 'Big Brother', Bai Xiaoyun immediately felt refreshed and laughed loudly.
"You wish! I don't have any celestial jades on me now. I'll give them to you in a few days. "Lin Biqiu's face was ashen as he said coldly.
When Bai Xiaoyun heard this, he didn't get angry. Instead, he looked at Shen Luo with surprise and said:
"Big Brother Shen, you guessed it right. The reactions of these two fellows are exactly as you said."
Shen Luo had already roughly grasped their personalities after observing their words and actions. Therefore, it wasn't strange that he knew how they would react.
However, as soon as he said this, Lin Biqiu and Du An's eyes focused on Shen Luo. A trace of resentment flashed in their eyes. However, the former didn't hide it, while the latter was much more subtle.
"Young Master Lin, words are no proof. Let's write it down." Shen Luo didn't care about this at all. He smiled and took out a pen and ink that he had already prepared and handed it to Lin Biqiu.
When Lin Biqiu saw this, he was suddenly speechless. A trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
Du An looked at Lin Biqiu with hidden bitterness. Bai Xiaoyun secretly gave Shen Luo a thumbs up.
Lin Biqiu really took the food box and wrote an IOU to Bai Xiaoyun. However, he didn't even look at Du An. He turned around and left with his entourage.
"Big … Big Brother, I'll take my leave too." Du An smiled awkwardly at Bai Xiaoyun. Then, he turned around and ran away as if he was escaping.
Bai Xiaoyun looked at their dejected backs and felt extremely satisfied. The gloominess of the first half of the day was swept away.
He looked at Shen Luo and said happily, "Big Brother Shen, I'm completely in awe of you this time!"
Shen Luo was just about to say something when his expression suddenly changed. He grabbed Bai Xiaoyun and ran a few steps forward. Then, he pinched the flying talisman with two fingers and flew into the sky again.
As soon as their figures disappeared, a figure flashed in the alley. A pale-skinned old man in a gray robe appeared. It was Lu Ying, the consecrated of the Lin family.
