"If this goes on, we'll all die!"
"We've lost more than 300 billion sacred cores in just ten days. It doesn't matter how low the odds are."
"If this goes on, I'll withdraw my investment …"
"I'll withdraw my investment too …"
…
White Tiger Palace, Conference Hall.
Out of the three major merchant unions, other than Meng Qi Merchant Union, the other two presidents were restless. They were businessmen, and they had never imagined that they would bet 300 billion saint cores in ten days. The number of people who bet on ordinary battles was pitifully small, but when it came to Qin Tian's battle or Luo Xian's battle, almost everyone would bet. Even those from the Sacred Sects placed a large amount of bets. In just a few days, they had been scared witless.
If this went on, their merchant union would go bankrupt because of the Heaven List Tournament.
In the conference hall, apart from the presidents of the two major merchant unions, the current patriarchs of the Four Divine Beasts Clan were also present. The four of them were much quieter than them, but their expressions were also ugly. Sacred cores were the greatest resource, an indispensable resource for cultivators.
If this went on, the Four Divine Beasts Clan would also suffer heavy losses.
At first, the six of them thought that they would make a fortune. They never thought that this would happen. It was completely out of their expectations.
"Cough …"
The patriarch of the Azure Dragon Clan coughed lightly and said, "The most important thing now is to think of a countermeasure. There are still a few days left, and those gamblers will bet like crazy. As long as we seize these few days, we'll win back all the sacred cores we lost and earn back all the money we should have earned."
The patriarch of the Black Tortoise Clan immediately echoed, "That's right. There's no point in complaining now. The most important thing now is how to solve the crisis in front of us. We don't have many sacred cores left, and if this goes on, we'll be unable to make up for it in less than three days."
The two presidents looked at each other.
The president of the Heavenly Shield Merchant Union moved his eyes and said, "The reason why we lost so badly is because of two people, Qin Tian and Luo Xian. As long as we get rid of them, winning back the sacred cores we lost will be a piece of cake. Moreover, all the contestants we sent out have entered the sixth round. As long as we control them well, and with the support we have in the dark, we'll soon have piles of sacred cores in front of us."
"Qin Tian, Luo Xian?"
"Both of them are not easy to deal with, especially that Luo Xian. He is vicious and merciless. No one who has fought against him has survived. He is not easy to deal with." The Vermillion Bird clan leader frowned slightly and looked at the silent Murong Yao.
The six of them had formed an alliance, but the White Tiger Clan had invested the least. In just ten short days, they had lost more than 300 billion Sacred Nuclei, so the White Tiger Clan had only lost less than 10 billion Sacred Nuclei. Seeing this situation, the other five couldn't help but suspect that Murong Yao had done something to them.
On second thought, Longxiang Temple and Asura's Gate were definitely not something the White Tiger Tribe could control.
"What?"
"You are part of the Four Divine Beasts clan. You can't even deal with two Eternal Autarchs? Qin Tian is still an immortal wargod. If they don't die, we won't invest anymore. I don't want Heavenly Shield Business Alliance to be destroyed in their hands. "
President Black Tortoise was immediately angered by President Heavenly Shield's words. He said, "Hmph, you stink of money. Is there nothing else in your eyes other than Saint Cores? Can it be that working together with our Four Divine Beasts clan is an injustice to you? "
"Ai. Patriarch Black Tortoise, the only thing in our eyes are Saint Cores. If we can't earn back the Saint Cores we lost this time, we can forget about going back. We might as well just die in Divine Martial City. "
"You!"
"… …"
… …
For a moment, the hall was filled with the smell of gunpowder. The sound of quarreling gradually grew louder.
Deal with Qin Tian and Luo Yan?
The Four Divine Beasts clan were no fools.
Regardless of whether or not they had the strength to kill Qin Tian, even if they did, they wouldn't act rashly. Right now, the Four Divine Beasts clan's attention was focused on the World King Tournament. If they sent experts to surround and kill Qin Tian and a super expert like Luo Yan died, it would definitely be a huge blow. Compared to the World King Tournament, they were willing to give up.
"Bang!"
Murong Yao slammed the table heavily. The table instantly turned to dust. His eyes were filled with anger as he said, "Alright, stop arguing!"
Everyone shivered.
They immediately quietened down. The five of them looked at Murong Yao. They all knew that many major events had happened in the White Tiger clan recently. Their ancestor had been assassinated, and their scandals had been exposed. Angering him at this time was undoubtedly asking for trouble.
Murong Yao glanced coldly at them and said, "First stop their bets. Secretly build momentum for Luo Yan and push them to the pinnacle battle. The payout is 1: 2. I believe that many people will only pay attention to the two of them. We can earn back what we lost in one go."
President Heavenly Shield's eyes widened. He immediately said, "You mean to fight for first place in the Heaven List Tournament? But why build momentum for Luo Yan? According to my intelligence, half a month ago, Qin Tian suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Luo Yan, right? "
Another president also asked, "According to the evaluation of strength, Qin Tian's current strength isn't Luo Yan's match at all. If we want to build momentum, it should be for Qin Tian. Let everyone bet on Qin Tian and not Luo Yan. Could it be that Patriarch White Tiger wants us to lose so badly that we don't even have our pants left?"
"Hmph!"
"What do you two know?"
"Qin Tian is much stronger than you think. Half a month ago, Qin Tian lost to Luo Yan, but now, Qin Tian's strength is definitely not weaker than Luo Yan's. If you want to make a comeback, then do as I say. If you want to lose so badly that you don't even have your pants, then do as you please." Murong Yao finished speaking coldly. He then looked at the Azure Dragon Patriarch and said, "Azure Dragon, our four clans should also discuss our countermeasures."
The corner of the Azure Dragon Patriarch's mouth moved. He stood up and laughed sinisterly. "I've been waiting for you to say that."
At the same time.
The Vermillion Bird Patriarch and the Mysterious Illusion Patriarch both stood up.
The two Commerce Alliance Presidents were confused. They had no idea what they were talking about.
Not long after.
The two Commerce Alliance Presidents left the White Tiger Palace and returned to their residence. They secretly sent dozens of subordinates in disguise to spread the news …
… ….
In the basement under the meeting hall.
Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise, the four patriarchs sat in four directions. Their eyes were extremely serious. Compared to the loss of hundreds of billions of sacred core, they were more concerned about what would happen next.
If they succeeded, the entire Sacred Realm would be theirs.
The Azure Dragon Patriarch's face was solemn. His tone was calm, completely different from before. The Vermillion Bird and Black Tortoise Patriarchs were the same. Right now, the four of them were like real brothers. There wasn't a hint of estrangement between them.
"White Tiger, are you really confident?" The Azure Dragon Patriarch was the first to ask.
Murong Yao let out a light breath. "Ao Yi's goal is the position of World King. As long as he leaves, the position of Master of the Sacred Realm will be empty. This is the one and only chance for our Four Divine Beasts clan. Only by becoming the Master of the Sacred Realm will we be the rulers of the Sacred Realm. As long as we obtain the power of the World King, we will definitely be able to fuse the bloodlines of the Four Divine Beasts. Dealing with Ao Yi, who has just become a Higher Realm King, will be no problem at all. At that time, we will unite the Ten Realms!"
Hearing Murong Yao's words, the other three began to grow excited.
The original founders of the Four Divine Beasts clan were four brothers. After fusing the bloodlines of the Four Divine Beasts, they began to transform. After hundreds of thousands of years of struggle, the Four Divine Beasts clan finally stood up and gradually grew stronger, becoming the hegemons of the various continents.
However, they all had the same dream; to become the World King.
The Vermillion Bird's body trembled slightly. She couldn't help but ask, "How do you know that the World King will definitely be born during the World King Competition for Supremacy?"
The White Tiger laughed gently. "I understand Ao Yi far too well. In order to motivate us, he will definitely use the position of Master of the Sacred Realm as a reward. Whoever kills the most enemies in the World King Competition will definitely become the next World King. When he becomes the World King, all ten realms will obey his commands. Thus, he will very generously use the position of World King as a reward."
"That's right."
"Ao Yi will definitely do this."
The Azure Dragon's eyes flashed. "As long as four disciples of our Four Divine Beasts clan enter the top ten of the Heaven Proclamation, then forty experts of our clan will enter the World King Competition for Supremacy. At that time, who will dare compete with us?"
As the Azure Dragon spoke, his blood began to boil. He was incomparably excited.
"Haha …"
"Haha …"
… …
After he finished speaking, all of them began to laugh loudly.
Murong Yao's eyes flashed with a cold light. He coldly said, "Qin Tian and Luo Yan will definitely battle. According to the Ancestor's judgement, Qin Tian's strength isn't any lower than Luo Yan's. The battle between the two of them will definitely be a battle of life and death. The referee won't be able to stop it at all. If one of them wins, the one who survives will definitely be heavily injured. At that time …"
"Heh heh …"
As he spoke up to here, Murong Yao began to laugh sinisterly, his treacherous eyes narrowing into slits. Like an old fox, he calmly said, "Once the two of them die, who will dare compete with us in the World King Competition for Supremacy?"
"The position of World King will definitely fall into our hands."
"Haha …"
The four of them began to laugh loudly, incomparably savage.
The Four Divine Beasts clan had an extremely great amount of power. With hundreds of millions of years of history behind them, no one knew just how powerful they were. Perhaps not even the World King knew. They were determined to win this World King Competition for Supremacy!
… …
Hibiscus Garden.
"Boss, not good."
"Motherf * cker …"
Chen Liu hurriedly ran into Hibiscus Garden, his eyebrows furrowed, his face full of unhappiness.
Qin Tian walked out of the room, looked at the anxious Chen Liu, and asked, "What's not good?"
Chen Liu hurriedly said, "Everyone on the streets is talking about who is stronger, you or Luo Xian. They are all optimistic about Luo Xian, saying that you will definitely die in Luo Xian's hands. What's even more infuriating is that the payout ratio between you and Luo Xian is 1: 2. This is too infuriating."
"Eh?"
Qin Tian smiled and said, "I thought it was something big. Let them talk about it."
Chen Liu frowned and said, "Boss, I'm just not happy …"
Qin Tian said, "Cultivate well. In a few days, I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle. At that time, I won't have any spare thoughts to take care of you. There's not much time left, don't go out for the next few days. Focus on breaking through to the Immortal War God realm."
Chen Liu's complexion changed, his heart faintly moved. He nodded and said, "Mm."
Then, he turned around and returned to his room.
A light breeze blew, the willow leaves swayed with the wind. Qin Tian looked up at the sky, the corner of his mouth moved slightly, and he said to himself, "Has it begun?"
