Tan Xiu had a lot of experience in the past, so he understood a few things very well. There were countless hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the Immortal World, and only by keeping a low profile could one live longer. Conversely, if one wanted to die faster, just like the long-robed old man, a moment of impulse and anger eventually led to his brutal death.
"Interesting."
A smile outlined on the corner of Tan Xiu's mouth. He found that the other gamblers in the surroundings had gone far away, leaving only him and Gu Yan 'er in the vicinity of the chubby middle-aged trio.
The chubby middle-aged man also noticed that Tan Xiu and Gu Yan 'er hadn't left. He just glanced at them a few times and knew that the man and woman didn't react to his behavior, nor did they show any hostility toward him. Therefore, he was a bit surprised to see that the two still looked calm as if nothing had happened.
"She's the best."
"Her figure and temperament are definitely the best."
"If I'm not mistaken, her looks are definitely top-notch."
The chubby middle-aged man's sharp eyes swept over Gu Yan 'er's hand that was holding Tan Xiu's arm and immediately laughed. "You have an extraordinary bearing, Little Brother. I really admire you! Can you come over and have a seat? "
Tan Xiu slightly raised his brows and lightly smiled. "I was just scared by the number one powerhouse in Hessen Castle, so I'll pass to avoid making a fool of myself. You can come over yourself if you want to have some fun, Sir! "
A glint flashed in the chubby middle-aged man's eyes. He immediately patted the shoulders of the two coquettish women and floated to the front of Tan Xiu and Gu Yan 'er. After sitting on the other side of Tan Xiu, he lightly smiled and said, "Little Brother, have you just met Madame Empyrean Pole? Ah, that poor woman will come to the Stargazing Pavilion every millennium, hoping that the Empyrean Pole Old Man will come back. It's no secret. "
A blush flashed in Tan Xiu's eyes before he smilingly said, "It's just a quick meeting. I still have to maintain a fearful posture in front of a powerhouse. But you're a bit interesting, Sir. You seem to be quite familiar with this Master and disciple, no? "
The fat middle-aged man laughed heartily and said, "Familiar, it's more than familiar! Hahaha … You're very interesting, very interesting. I haven't met such an interesting young man like you for many, many years. Tell me, where are you from? "
Tan Xiu calmly said, "You're just a trivial rogue cultivator who drifts around the world. Do you think I'm very young? "
The chubby middle-aged man couldn't help but laugh. "You're still a kid in my eyes."
Dolls?
Tan Xiu turned his head and exchanged glances with Gu Yan 'er. Both of them had a smile in their eyes. When Tan Xiu turned his head back, he nodded and smilingly said, "That's right. I'm indeed a child. You can call me Great Tang Heavenly Emperor, or you can call me Great Tang Emperor. How should I address you? "
"Great Tang Heavenly Emperor?"
The chubby middle-aged man couldn't help but laugh. He shook his head and smilingly said, "You really don't know how to be modest, kid. Even I … don't dare to use the title of Heavenly Emperor! Great Tang Lil Bro, I think you're very interesting, so why don't we make a bet next time? I'll tell you my title if you win, but if you lose, can you let me see the appearance of this beauty beside you? "
The smile on Tan Xiu's face slightly receded and he calmly said, "Celestial Pole Oldman once told me that curiosity can kill a man. If you want to make friends with me, then don't mention this matter again. We can have some fun if you have any ill intentions. "
The chubby middle-aged man stared blankly and slightly furrowed his brows. As far as he knew, Celestial Pole Oldman had been missing for thousands of years, yet this young man in front of him said that he had personally spoken to him. Something was wrong, wasn't it?
Could it be that this young man had just seen Celestial Pole Oldman recently?
The chubby middle-aged man pondered for a moment and was about to speak when his complexion slightly changed. He suddenly recalled that Tan Xiu asked him if he thought he was young.
Could it be …
Is he a reincarnated almighty expert?
That's right. Ever since his woman killed that long-robed Profound Immortal old man, everyone else in the surroundings had hidden far away, except for the two of them. Even his words revealed a lofty and aloof tone, yet this young man was neither servile nor overbearing and had an extraordinary bearing. It was impossible for a young man to maintain such a state of mind in front of him.
The chubby middle-aged man shot a deep look at Tan Xiu and said, "Forget about the request I just made. But you need to answer another question of mine, Mister. "
Tan Xiu chuckled and said, "You're really too curious, huh? Tell me, I want to hear what your question is. "
"What's the relationship between the two of you?" asked the chubby middle-aged man.
"She's my disciple," said Tan Xiu with a faint smile.
"She's also his woman."
Gu Yan 'er tightened her grip on Tan Xiu's arm and the aura of a Golden Immortal flashed away.
The chubby middle-aged man took a deep breath and immediately realized that his previous guess was correct. This young man in front of him was probably a reincarnated almighty expert. Else, how could he have a Golden Immortal as his disciple who had just stepped into the Ordinary Immortal Stage? Even his Golden Immortal disciple was just half a step away from the Perfected Golden Immortal Stage.
A smile outlined on the chubby middle-aged man's face as he lightly smiled and said, "No matter what your identity was, you're just an ordinary Immortal in my eyes now. Great Tang Lil Bro, I'm Nine Nether Swordmeister. You can call me Brother Nine Nether. "
Nine Nether Swordmeister?
A cold glint flashed in the eyes of Gu Yan 'er at Tan Xiu's side. This Nine Nether Swordmeister was almost as famous as her. He was also a terrifying madman in the Immortal World and was also a Perfected Golden Immortal. Both of them were regarded as terrifying devils by countless people.
"Grave Burial Sect?"
"Nine Nether Swordmeister?"
A complicated look flashed in Tan Xiu's eyes as he nodded and said, "We'll be friends in the future. I'm too poor right now to buy some Golden Immortal gladiators, so I'll ask you three times as a greeting gift! I won't refuse if I can do it in the future. "
Three times as a favor?
A glint flashed in Nine Nether Swordmeister's eyes as he meaningfully sized up Tan Xiu. Then, he nodded and said, "Great Tang Lil Bro, this greeting gift is very heavy, so I'll accept it. Since we're friends, then the greeting gift must be from both sides. How many Golden Immortal gladiators do you need, Great Tang Lil Bro? I'll pay for it. "
"Hahaha …"
Tan Xiu burst into laughter and gave a thumbs up in praise. "You're really generous, Brother Nine Nether. 20 Golden Immortal gladiators cost 150 million Immortal Crystals. That's a lot more than the 1 million Immortal Crystals Madam Empyrean Pole gave you and the 10 million Immortal Crystals meal from the Stargazing Pavilion. I'll accept it since we're friends. "
"Since when did Empyrean Pole Madam become so generous?" Nine Nether Swordmeister was surprised.
"I'm not familiar with her," replied Tan Xiu with a faint smile.
Nine Nether Swordmeister couldn't help laughing and shot Tan Xiu an admiring look, saying, "You're really interesting, Great Tang Lil Bro. Others are eager to have a relationship with a powerhouse like Madam Empyrean Pole, yet you directly said that you're not familiar with her. That's really interesting!"
"I've always been honest to my friends," said Tan Xiu with a smile.
"I like honesty between friends." Nine Nether Swordmeister laughed aloud. "Great Tang Lil Bro, since you've given me three requests, then I'll mention one now. There will be a big bet here eight months later, and I'm one of the participants. I want to ask you to help me win the bet, Great Tang Lil Bro. How about it? "
"Enemies?" asked Tan Xiu.
"You can say so!" Nine Nether Swordmeister nodded. "There are some grudges between us that Madam Empyrean Pole personally presided over. She wants to help us resolve the enmity and finally settle the bet. No matter who wins or loses, the enmity will come to an end. I'll get huge benefits if I win, but my vitality will be greatly damaged if I lose. "
"I can't guarantee that you'll win with 100% certainty." Tan Xiu nodded. "I can only try my best."
"Don't worry!" said Nine Nether Swordmeister. "I won't put all my hopes on you. You just need to follow me, give me advice, and give me some advice. I won't blame you even if I lose in the end. "
At this moment.
More than a dozen guards of the Convict Arena came to the front of them. The Chief Steward narrowed his eyes and looked at Nine Nether Swordmeister, saying, "If you know the rules of the Convict Arena, then please pay a fine of 1 million Immortal Crystals. If you don't, our people are willing to explain it to you. "
Nine Nether Swordmeister flicked his fingers and an interspatial ring appeared in the Chief Steward's hand.
As he scanned it with his Immortal Sense, he immediately nodded and said, "You're all honored guests of the Convict Arena, so I hope you won't go too far. You can gamble with your enemies if you don't feel happy here and win everything from them. It's far more interesting than killing them. You don't need to pay a million Immortal Crystals even if you kill them. You just need to apply for a deathmatch contract at the Exchange Counter and you can bet your life to win. "
"I got it. Just go away!" Nine Nether Swordmeister waved his hand.
The Golden Immortal old man let out a faint smile and turned to Tan Xiu. Then, he left with more than a dozen guards.
"Do you know him, Great Tang Lil Bro?" asked Nine Nether Swordmeister.
"We talked about buying 20 Golden Immortal gladiators before." Tan Xiu lightly smiled and said, "We met once."
"Why do you want to buy so many Golden Immortal gladiators?" asked Nine Nether Swordmeister with a smile. "Do you want them to be your guards?"
Tan Xiu chuckled and said, "Don't tell me you don't think that spending money to buy a group of thugs to accompany you will save you a lot of trouble in the future? I'm too poor, else I would've bought tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of Golden Immortal gladiators and formed a Golden Immortal Legion. If I don't like it, I can flatten it with a wave of my arm or a flick of my finger. If I don't like it, I can directly crush them with my Golden Immortal subordinates. "
Cough, cough, cough …
Nine Nether Swordmeister nearly choked to death. His face flushed red and was covered with a strange expression. After a while, he gave a thumbs up to Tan Xiu and praised, "Great Tang Lil Bro, you're really … a marvel! You can even come up with such a grand idea in your mind. This Big Brother … admires you. "
