"I'll let you be arrogant for a while. When you lose the bet, one billion Nine Cauldron Pills will be mine!"
Master Mu thought excitedly, and his eyes became greedy.
One billion Nine Cauldron Pills was within Master Mu's reach. How could he not be excited?
"What's wrong? Have you taken everything?"
Chu Fengmian couldn't help but twitch his mouth when he saw Master Mu stop.
"I'll give you seven hundred million Nine Cauldron Pills. You're still short of three hundred million."
"It's just one billion Nine Cauldron Pills. Don't tell me Master Mu can't take it out?"
"Kid, don't be arrogant! Of course I can take out one billion Nine Cauldron Pills! "
Master Mu was even more anxious when he heard Chu Fengmian's mockery. This was the best opportunity for him to get one billion Nine Cauldron Pills.
If he were to fly away like this today, he would really want to cry but have no tears.
He had to gather three hundred million Nine Cauldron Pills.
"Young Master Zhao, you can't lend me three hundred million Nine Cauldron Pills first."
Helpless, the only person Master Mu could think of was Zhao Duanqiao, who was standing next to him.
"As long as you lend me three hundred million Nine Cauldron Pills, I'll pay you back double after I win. How about six hundred million Nine Cauldron Pills?"
"This …"
Zhao Duanqiao's expression became silent when he heard Master Mu's words.
He didn't speak for a long time, which made Master Mu even more anxious.
"Young Master Zhao, don't you trust me? I promise that even if I lose today, I'll pay you back, "Master Mu said anxiously.
Grandmaster Mu said anxiously. His top priority now was to gather one billion Nine Cauldron Pills to gamble with Chu Fengmian.
Zhao Duanqiao's hesitation made Master Mu even more anxious.
"Master Mu, it's not that I don't want to lend you, but I don't have three hundred million Nine Cauldron Pills."
Zhao Duanqiao hesitated for a while before saying helplessly.
"I don't have any valuable items on me, so even if I want to lend them to Master Mu, there's nothing I can do."
Borrowing three hundred million Nine Cauldron Pills and paying back six hundred million Nine Cauldron Pills was like a pie falling from the sky for Zhao Duanqiao.
He trusted Grandmaster Mu's ability to appraise treasures. Otherwise, he would not have spent so much money to invite Grandmaster Mu. However, he was unable to take out the remaining 300 million Nine Cauldron Pills.
Master Mu's face turned pale when he heard Zhao Duanqiao's words. However, he quickly thought of something and whispered to Zhao Duanqiao.
"Young Master Zhao, don't you have the thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass? As long as you take out that thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass, it will be worth 300 million Nine Cauldron Pills. "
Master Mu said excitedly.
Zhao Duanqiao had the 1,000-year-old Dragon Blood Grass that he bought from the Twilight Pavilion.
"However, this thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass is something that Father wants. I only brought Father to the Twilight Pavilion to buy it once. If I can't bring it back, I'll be finished."
Zhao Duanqiao said with some hesitation.
Although he was incomparably arrogant, in front of his father, Zhao Wudi, he was simply like a little chick, never daring to make a sound.
This thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass was specifically ordered by Zhao Wudi to buy it. Zhao Duanqiao did not even dare to think about the punishment if he failed to buy it back.
"Young Master Zhao, don't worry. This old man has absolute confidence in winning. This thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass is just a bet. In the end, we will get it back. After this matter is settled, this old man is willing to give 500 million Nine Cauldron Pills to Young Master Zhao. How about that?"
Master Mu said hurriedly.
"500 million Nine Cauldron Pills …"
Zhao Duanqiao was silent for a while before he finally opened his mouth.
"Alright, then I'll believe in Master Mu this time."
Zhao Duanqiao carefully took out a red Spiritual Herb from his Empty Ring. This red Spiritual Herb looked inconspicuous, but the faint Dragon's Might that was emitted from it was enough to tell that it was extraordinary.
"It's indeed a thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass."
Seeing that thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass, Chu Fengmian's eyes lit up. What he needed the most was this thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass.
Chu Fengmian's previous plan was to force the thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass out of this bet. Now, it seemed that Chu Fengmian had succeeded.
This Zhao Duanqiao really took out the thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass.
"Many thanks, Young Master Zhao."
Master Mu took the thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass and hurriedly thanked him. Then, he walked towards Chu Fengmian and placed the Dragon Blood Grass on the table.
"Kid, it's finally enough this time."
Master Mu roared. He was almost driven mad by Chu Fengmian. Now, he could finally let out a long sigh of relief.
"The thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass is worth around 250 million Nine Cauldron Pills. However, seeing that Master Mu can't take out anything valuable, I'll reluctantly let it go. As for the 500 million Nine Cauldron Pills, I don't care."
Chu Fengmian glanced at the thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass and said calmly.
This sentence almost made Master Mu gasp for breath. It was as if Chu Fengmian had given him a gift.
"Kid, let's see how long you can be so arrogant! Let's see how ugly you'll cry when you lose! "
Master Mu roared madly in his heart. However, he pretended to be extremely calm on the surface.
"Now that the stakes have been lowered, the bet should start soon. However, there should be someone to be a witness."
Master Mu looked at Chu Fengmian and said coldly.
"I think, how about letting Young Master Zhao be a witness? As the Second Young Master of General Zhao, it's not a problem for him to be a witness. "
"Zhao Duanqiao as a witness? He's not worthy. I don't trust him. What if he runs away? "
Hearing Master Mu's words, Chu Fengmian curled his lips and said disdainfully.
Chu Fengmian's eyes swept across the crowd and suddenly said to the crowd.
"How about we have Pavilion Master Mu bear witness to this?"
"Oh? This old man will be the witness? "
An old laughter rang out, and Pavilion Master Mu suddenly walked out from the crowd.
"That's fine. It's an honor for this old man to be the witness for this billion-dollar bet."
A billion-dollar bet in the entire Qin Empire was something that wouldn't happen even once in a hundred years. Pavilion Master Mu also wanted to join in the fun.
"Alright, I agree with Pavilion Master Mu being the witness."
Master Mu nodded his head. With Pavilion Master Mu's identity, he was indeed qualified to be the witness.
"Kid, let's make the conditions clear. Let's guess the true identity of this mystical item. That's right. The one billion Nine Cauldron Pills will belong to whoever wins."
Master Mu looked at Chu Fengmian and said fiercely.
"It won't be good if someone reneges on the bet when the time comes."
"A billion Nine Cauldron Pills isn't a big number to me. It doesn't matter if I lose. I won't go back on my words."
Chu Fengmian said calmly.
