Hot Hands
"What a joke. Who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to bet with me? If I want someone, she will be mine. You are not fit to fight with me. Do you understand? " Cheng Yao saw that Xuanyuan was an unfamiliar face. He had never seen him before. He knew most of the people in the Source Stone District. Occasionally, there would be one or two loose practitioners with some money, but he did not care about them at all.
"Are you going to bet or not? If you don't want to bet, don't come and talk to me. Don't even think about getting Lady Chang 'er!" Xuanyuan did not get angry with Cheng Yao. He only smiled indifferently and ignored Cheng Yao.
"You!" Cheng Yao pointed at Xuanyuan. He was so angry that he trembled. He did not expect that a mere Dou Huang would dare to speak to him in such a manner. It was simply too rebellious!
"What about you? Are you angry from embarrassment? Do you want to kill me? Then do it, I won't retaliate. Of course, I heard that Chengmen Shihfang forbids martial arts. If you want to break the golden signboard of Chengmen Shihfang, I don't mind. At most, it will spread rumors that some members of the royal family bully others. I believe that the damage to Chengmen Shihfang will not be too great. It is normal for a big shop to bully its customers. " Xuanyuan's tone was calm. He wore a smile on his face and looked completely indifferent. Anyone could see the contempt he had for Cheng Yao. This caused Cheng Yao to be furious. However, Cheng Yao could not do anything to him.
Cheng Yao's face was green. Although he was the son of a virtuous king, his relationship with Cheng Yin was ordinary.
Relationships within the royal family were often complicated. It was true that Cheng Yin was his cousin, but if something happened, he might not protect him. Instead, his ending would be even worse!
"Hmph, since you have said so, then I will bet with you. However, this bet must be a little bigger! I just don't know if you dare to accept it! " When Cheng Yao saw that he couldn't suppress him with his power, the anger in his heart rose, and his killing intent soared. His face was ferocious, and it was clear that no one in the Northern Prefecture had ever dared to treat him like this.
"There's no harm in saying it. I'm just afraid that you can't afford the bet!" Xuanyuan smiled happily. He hadn't expected to run into an idiot who would give him money just as he was about to gamble on stones. Naturally, he wouldn't stand on ceremony. Although Xuanyuan couldn't win the Master of Immortal Mansion to be his maid like the Origin Immortal Emperor, he was confident that he could win against Cheng Yao and make him bankrupt.
Cheng Yao was so angry that he laughed. He pointed at Xuanyuan and said,
"Fine, just based on these words of yours, you're dead for sure. There's nothing this Young Master can't afford to gamble on. Let's win two out of three rounds. The winner of each round will be the one who cuts out the most Dou Source. If you lose, I'll chop off your four limbs. How about it?"
Xuanyuan was stunned for a moment before he sneered.
"So what if you lose?"
"What a joke. How can a country bumpkin like you beat me?" Cheng Yao was incomparably proud.
"Cut the crap. What if you lose?" Xuanyuan said coldly.
"I can't possibly lose!" Cheng Yao said disdainfully to Xuanyuan.
"Then let's make the same bet. If you lose, I'll chop off your four limbs. What do you think?" Xuanyuan's expression was sinister. He definitely wouldn't show mercy to someone like Cheng Yao.
"Fine!" Cheng Yao immediately agreed.
Xuanyuan looked around at the rich and powerful people around him and said slowly, "
He said slowly, "Is there anyone here who dares to testify? I'm just a wandering wandering cultivator. If Cheng Yao loses and goes back on his word, what can I do to you when you're all a nest of snakes and rats? "
"Haha, don't worry, kid. Since Cheng Yao has made the bet with you, everyone in this Dawn Stone District will testify for you." The laughter of an elderly Battle Celestial expert could be heard. Xuanyuan looked at the elderly Battle Celestial expert and felt that he was unfathomable. Hearing this, Cheng Yao's expression changed.
This elderly Battle Celestial expert was the previous Minister of Justice. He was decisive in killing and came from the Three Ministers. He was the most impartial in handling matters.
"Mister Yu is right. Why don't we be the middlemen? If anyone dares to stop us, we'll kill them! " The other middle-aged man was also in the Battle Celestial realm. He was majestic, with thick eyebrows and large eyes.
"Alright, since you've all said so, let's begin!" Xuanyuan nodded and looked at Cheng Yao.
Cheng Yao waved his sleeves and laughed sinisterly, "Kid, don't worry.
"Little brat, don't worry. You'll die one day. I'll definitely chop off your limbs and let you bleed to death. No one has ever dared to go against me, but you're the first. Very good, if I don't kill you today, it'll seem like I'm easy to bully."
"What's with all the nonsense? Hurry up and pick the stones." Xuanyuan laughed coldly and said with disdain.
"You! Alright, we'll see. " Cheng Yao was infuriated. However, he quickly calmed himself down and began to wander around the area, observing the Origin Stones one by one.
Yuechang was laughing in her heart.
"Fight, fight, the bigger the better. It's best if you fight to the death."
Looking at Cheng Yao's posture, Xuanyuan immediately knew that this person knew nothing about Stone Arts. At least, that was what Xuanyuan thought.
Cheng Yao pretended to judge based on what other people said. In the end, he chose a relatively large Origin Stone, which was the size of an adult's.
"Master Cheng Yao, the price of this Dawn Stone is 40 million Dou King coins!" The woman beside Cheng Yao said softly after he chose the Dawn Stone.
Cheng Yao nodded and immediately took out four Dou King crystal cards from his fighting ring. Each Dou King crystal card represented 10 million Dou King coins.
The beautiful woman who served Cheng Yao took the four Dou King crystal cards and retreated to the side. Cheng Yao took out a short knife and began to cut the Dawn Stone piece by piece. His hand speed was not slow, but some of his techniques were too rough. It was not comparable to Xuanyuan's. Although he could ask the woman beside him to help him cut the stone, the buyer always liked to cut it himself.
Xuanyuan sat calmly at the side, smiling without saying a word.
Time passed bit by bit. The boulder that Cheng Yao had picked out became smaller and smaller. Cheng Yao was sweating profusely. After all, this time he was betting on his limbs, not money. If he really lost, no one could protect him, especially with so many people present. If he went back on his word, the face of the Virtuous King's Mansion would be swept to the ground, and he wouldn't be able to bear it!
In the end, the Dawn Stone was only the size of a lychee, but there was nothing inside. This made Cheng Yao's face very ugly.
Cheng Yao held the mentality of a fluke. At the last cut, a five-colored light gushed out and a piece of pure Dou Source appeared!
The pure energy source weighed about half a kilogram. Cheng Yao laughed and looked at Xuanyuan, "Xuanyuan, you're a Saint.
"It's your turn."
The people at the side shook their heads. Obviously, they were also a little speechless at Cheng Yao. He spent 40 million Dou King coins and only got a jin of pure Dou Source, but he was still so happy. To put it bluntly, he was a little stupid! However, some people spent hundreds of millions of Dou King coins and didn't even get a hair, so they didn't say much.
Xuanyuan couldn't help but laugh:
"It's just a jin of pure Dou Source, is it worth it to make you so happy? I've seen stupid people, but I've never seen someone as stupid as you. Sigh, it's really embarrassing! "
"Hmph, it would be better if you can't even get a hair out of it." Cheng Yao knew that 500 grams of pure energy source wasn't worth bragging about. However, many people had spent a lot of money without getting anything. Therefore, as long as Xuanyuan couldn't cut out anything, he would win.
Xuanyuan didn't even use his Virtual Eye as he walked towards a small mountain of Origin Stones. This small mountain of Origin Stones was made up of Origin Stones that weren't even the size of a human head.
Xuanyuan picked out a source-stone that was about the size of a child's head. It was oddly shaped and had a few cracks on its surface. It was only as big as a child's head.
"This is it."
"Haha, you're courting death. You even dared to choose this kind of Origin Stone. If you're not courting death, what are you doing?" Cheng Yao smiled widely. This kind of Origin Stone would never be chosen. Even the people at the side couldn't help but shake their heads when they saw the Origin Stone that Xuanyuan chose. They originally thought that Cheng Yao wouldn't choose a Origin Stone, but they didn't expect Xuanyuan to be even worse than Cheng Yao.
"Young Master, this Origin Stone is really unlikely to have any Dou Source. You should consider it carefully. If you want to buy this Origin Stone, you only need to spend 80,000 Dou King coins." When Yuechang saw that Xuanyuan had chosen this Dou Source, she immediately felt that it was too tragic to look at. This Origin Stone had been here for a long time, but no one had bought it. She didn't expect that Xuanyuan would choose it.
Xuanyuan didn't say much. After paying 80,000 Dou King coins, he gently stabbed the Devouring Demon Sword in his hand. The sword light outlined a mysterious trajectory. The surface of the Origin Stone suddenly exploded, and then it split into pieces. Layer by layer, it shattered, and finally, a colorful brilliance shot into the sky.
Countless people's expressions changed.
"How is this possible!"
To them, this was as if they were looking at a worm, and this worm suddenly turned into a dragon. This was simply impossible.
But it had happened just like that in front of them.
Xuanyuan weighed the Origin Stone in his hand and smiled.
"A little more than half a kilogram. Hahaha, I win!"
Anyone with a discerning eye could also see that the pure Dou Source in Xuanyuan's hand was a little larger than Cheng Yao's. Cheng Yao's face was ashen, and he was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
"Hmph, choose again!" Cheng Yao roared angrily in his heart, "How is this possible, a Origin Stone with a Origin Stone can actually produce pure Dou Source!"
Next, Cheng Yao spent another 80,000 Dou King coins, chose a larger Origin Stone, and then carefully cut it, as if some peerless immortal treasure was about to be born, causing Xuanyuan to laugh repeatedly. Cheng Yao was so angry that the corners of his eyes kept twitching, but he couldn't do anything to Xuanyuan.
In the end, this huge Origin Stone was cut smaller and smaller. Finally, under Cheng Yao's unremitting efforts, he cut out a full 20 kilograms of pure Dou Source. Cheng Yao laughed loudly.
"Hmph, boy, let's see if you can still beat me this time!"
Xuanyuan smiled disdainfully. He only treated Cheng Yao as a warm-up. He didn't have any cash on him, but there was a ready-made sucker, so he naturally wanted to extort a large sum of money.
