Wutian was very surprised. A Mysterious Soul Stone only cost 10 million essence, while a wisp of Mysterious Soul Power cost 1 billion essence. The difference was 100 times!
However, Zhou Shu was a little unhappy. He frowned and said, "I remember that in Tengoku, the value of a wisp of Mysterious Soul Power is at least 10 billion essence. Why are you only offering 1 billion here? Do you think we're easy to bully because it's our first time here?"
The woman in white said, "Young Master, you misunderstood me. That's not what I meant. Young Master also knows that this is the Sea of Stars, not Tengoku. Naturally, the price can't be lumped together."
Zhou Shu pondered for a while. As if he thought of something, he shook his head and said, "I understand. You want to take it at a low price and sell it to Tianbaoge Hall in Tengoku at a high price. I have to say that you're really smart!"
A touch of surprise flashed across the woman in white's eyes. She said with a smile, "Young Master, you can think of this. It seems that you're not an ordinary person."
"Haha, it's just a guess. Don't take it seriously."
Zhou Shu shook his head with a smile. With a wave of his hand, 10 million essence continuously swept out from the space bracelet.
After the woman in white took away the essence, Zhou Shu took out a dagger and stuffed it into Wutian's hand together with the Mysterious Soul Stone. He said with a smile, "Next, it depends on whether your luck is heaven-defying or not. But before opening the Mysterious Soul Stone, I want to ask if anyone here dares to bet with me."
Zhou Shu glanced at the crowd around with a provocative look in his eyes.
A middle-aged man in black stepped forward and asked, "How do you want to bet?"
"Bet on what?"
Wutian asked with a sound transmission.
"You haven't been in Tengoku for a few days, so you don't know a lot of things. I'll explain it to you slowly after it's over."
Zhou Shu secretly responded. He looked at the middle-aged man and said with a smile, "If you get the Power of the Profound Soul, your wager will belong to me. If you don't get the Power of the Profound Soul, not only will I return your wager, I will also repay you tenfold."
As soon as these words came out, the second floor of the Trading Center suddenly became noisy.
"It's 10 to 1!"
"The probability of getting the Mysterious Soul Power is so small, but he dares to bet so much. Is he crazy?"
"Could it be that he already knows that this Profound Soul Stone has the power of the Profound Soul?"
"Impossible. Anyone who has some understanding of the Profound Soul Stone knows that the Profound Soul Stone can block the detection of Divine Perception. Furthermore, I have lived for hundreds of thousands of years and have never heard of anyone who can see through the Profound Soul Stone."
"If that's the case, he should be a noble. He likes to play like this and has the capital to play like this."
"Since that's the case, let's play with him and make him lose everything."
After the discussion, everyone on the second floor gathered around Zhang Xuan.
The black clothed middle-aged man who was the first to speak also revealed a trace of mockery as he said, "I'll bet with you, but what if you don't have enough capital?"
Zhou Shu said, "You can do whatever you want to us."
"Alright, that's what you said. Everyone heard it. If you can't afford it later, then don't blame us for being impolite. I'll bet fifty stalks of divine medicine!" The middle-aged man took out a spatial bracelet and threw it on the ground.
"I bet one billion essence!"
"I bet 500 million!"
"I bet 300 million!"
"I'll bet three high-grade divine abilities!"
"I bet two second-tribulation divine weapons!"
"I bet 100 Green Dragon Stones!"
"…"
For a time, everyone placed their bets. Some bet on divine medicine, some bet on divine weapons. In short, as long as it existed, someone would bet on it. Seeing this, Wutian sighed. These people who wandered in the Sea of Stars all year round were indeed rich.
Of course, even if everyone's wealth was added together, it still wouldn't enter his eyes. But who would complain about having too many resources?
There were almost five hundred people on the second floor. As long as each of them put in one bracelet, they would accumulate a considerable amount of wealth.
After a few dozen breaths, more than five hundred spatial bracelets were piled up on the ground. Almost everyone had participated.
Seeing this, Zhou Shu was also under great pressure. He patted Wutian on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Brother, don't cheat me. If I lose, my savings will shrink by more than half."
Wutian couldn't help but despise him. As the son of the Chief Pavilion Master, couldn't he have a little backbone? He put the Dark Soul Stone on the counter, grabbed the dagger, and was about to cut it.
"Wait."
However, at this moment, a shout suddenly sounded. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man in purple striding over.
"Greetings, Young Master Ximen."
With the exception of Wutian and Zhou Shu, everyone else bowed respectfully and stepped aside to make way for them.
Young Master Ximen walked to the opposite side of Wutian and glanced at the spatial bracelets piled up like a mountain on the ground. A playful look appeared on his face, and he said, "I'm also interested in betting with you. Ten billion ordinary essences, one billion elemental essences, one hundred second-tribulation divine weapons, one hundred divine medicines, and ten high-level magical powers. Do you dare to accept?"
Zhou Shu raised his eyebrows and fell silent, as if he couldn't take it.
"Haha, weren't you very arrogant just now? Why are you so quiet now? "
"If you don't have the ability, don't start a bet."
"Hurry up, don't waste our time."
Seeing this, the surrounding crowd couldn't help but mock and ridicule. Those who didn't speak were gloating.
Zhou Shu gritted his teeth, looked up at Young Master Ximen, and said, "I want to see your bet with my own eyes."
"Haha, you don't believe Young Master Ximen. How ridiculous."
"Young man, you may not know who he is. I might as well tell you the truth. He's the young master of this exchange."
Someone mocked.
Young Master Ximen gestured with his hands, and the entire crowd quieted down. He smiled and said, "It's a gambling game, so it has to be fair. Even if I am the young master of this trading house, I still have to abide by the rules. Men, go and take out my stake for this brother to take a look."
"Yes!"
A staff member immediately ran to the back hall and ran out after a while. He came to Zhou Shu and handed him a spatial bracelet, saying indifferently, "Take it and count it."
Zhou Shu looked at it carefully. His eyes flashed, but he hesitated.
Young Master Ximen frowned and said, "What? You really can't take it? Of course, if you really can't take it, you can refuse. After all, ten times is not child's play. "
"Who says I can't take it? I'll bet with you today!"
Zhou Shu was furious. He threw the spatial bracelet on the ground and said to Wutian, "Brother, cut it off!"
Wutian asked, "Are you sure?"
Zhou Shu nodded and said, "If I lose, I'll go bankrupt. But if I win, we'll make a lot of money this time."
The middle-aged man in black joked, "A one in 100,000 chance is not so easy to earn."
"The Mystic Soul Stone hasn't been opened yet. It's hard to say who will win or lose," Zhou Shu said in a deep voice, and then looked at Wutian, "Brother, watch!"
Wutian tightened the dagger in his hand and put it on the Mystic Soul Stone.
At this moment, Zhou Shu stared at the Mystic Soul Stone, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
On the other hand, Young Master Ximen and the others crossed their arms, waiting for the compensation.
Because no one would believe that this Mystic Soul Stone contained the power of the Mystic Soul. It was impossible for them to encounter it with a one in 100,000 chance.
"Crack!"
Wutian exerted force in his arm, and the dagger cut iron like mud, directly splitting the Mystic Soul Stone into two.
Everyone looked at the two pieces of Mystic Soul Stone, and their expressions changed on the spot!
"Haha, sorry, I won."
However, Zhou Shu raised his head and laughed. With a wave of his hand, the spatial bracelets on the ground disappeared and were put away by him.
Wutian was also very surprised. He stared at the half of the Mystic Soul Stone. In the center of this half of the Mystic Soul Stone, there was an extremely small groove. But because the groove was pure white and the Mystic Soul Stone was pitch-black, it was easy to distinguish.
But this was not the point. The point was that there was a silk thread in the groove. It was about three inches long, and as for its thinness, it was half as thin as a hair. It was colorful all over. Although it was very small, it was very eye-catching!
However, it was this thing that stunned Young Master Ximen and the others. They were all in disbelief!
Because it was the power of the Mystic Soul that could repair the weapon spirit!
A one in 100,000 chance was actually encountered by the two. Wasn't their luck too heaven-defying?
But the fact was in front of them. They had to accept it even if they didn't want to.
"Brother, we made a big profit this time. Let's go celebrate and then divide the loot. No, no, it's dividing the spoils. Haha …"
Zhou Shu laughed wildly and was about to leave with Wutian. However, at this time, Young Master Ximen stood in front of them and said with a smile, "Do you two dare to continue the bet?"
Zhou Shu shook his head and said, "Gambling on Mystic Soul Stones all depends on luck. Today, we've used up all our luck. How about this, tomorrow, we'll have a good bet with you tomorrow."
"Luck can be used up?"
Hearing this, a cold light flashed in the depths of Young Master Ximen's eyes, but he smiled and said, "Okay, it's a deal. Tomorrow, I will personally wait for the two of you here. I will also invite the people of the second garrison to participate in the bet. Men, give them one billion essence."
This one billion essence was naturally the cost of recovering the Mystic Soul Power.
"The bet is so big? But I like it, haha … "
Zhou Shu laughed heartily. After the staff brought him one billion essence, he left with Wutian.
Walking out of the trading house, the two walked in the crowd. Zhou Shu was so happy that he forgot about home, but there was a trace of suspicion between Wutian's eyebrows.
Suddenly, Wutian frowned and took out a piece of essence. He pretended to accidentally throw it on the ground, and then bent down to pick it up. But when he glanced behind him, he found a man in black with a strange expression. He glanced at them from time to time.
Seeing this, Zhou Shu wondered, "What are you doing?"
Wutian stood up straight, threw the essence to Zhou Shu, and said lightly, "We're being followed."
"Followed."
Zhou Shu raised his eyebrows and did not look back. He threw the essence on the ground and repeated the same trick. After two breaths, he got up and sneered, "These people really can't afford to lose."
Wutian shook his head and said, "No, it's not that they can't afford to lose, but they want to investigate our origins. After all, ordinary people don't dare to make such a big bet, let alone accept tomorrow's bet. I'm sure that if you break the appointment tomorrow, we'll all be in trouble."
Zhou Shu said disdainfully, "With you guys here, do you think we're afraid of them?"
Wutian shook his head and asked, "I've always wanted to ask you a question. Why don't you take away the Mystic Soul Power but sell it to them?"
