"Just now, First Old Master was just joking with everyone. Don't take it seriously."
Mu Lingyao stood out to smooth things over for Gu Qingfeng.
"Joking? Not necessarily, right? " Xuan Yun refused to give up and said, "First Old Master personally said earlier that seizing the 27th level of the Golden Pagoda is like playing to him. Furthermore, I believe that First Old Master is also very confident in this."
"That's right. There's such a thing."
Hearing Gu Qingfeng say so, Mu Lingyao was simply about to explode from anger.
"Alright! Since First Old Master is so confident, do you dare to make a bet with me? "
"Alright, since I have nothing to do, I can find some fun to play." Gu Qingfeng said with a smile, "I wonder what Young Master Xuan Yun wants to bet? How much money? "
"Bet money? Sorry, I don't lack money. "
"Oh? Then what do you want to bet? "
"I want to bet a little big. I'm just afraid that First Old Master can't afford it."
"There's no bet in this world that I can't afford. Tell me what you want to bet."
"Alright! As expected of First Old Master. "
Xuan Yun, who originally looked gentle and refined, suddenly became overbearing and shouted, "If you can't ascend to the 27th level of the Golden Pagoda, then kneel down and kowtow to this young master!"
"Senior Apprentice Brother Xuan Yun! What are you doing? Can you not be like this?! "
Liu Li stood out and tried to stop it. But just as she opened her mouth, she was pushed to the side by Xuan Yun, who said, "My matters have nothing to do with you. Move aside!"
"Xuan Yun, aren't you too shameless? You directly bet on who can ascend to the 27th level? Aren't you playing despicable tricks here? " Mu Lingyao said unyieldingly, "Since it's a bet, then let's be fair. If you can't ascend to the 27th level, then kneel down and kowtow to First Old Master too. How about it?"
"I admit that I can't ascend to the 27th level of the Golden Pagoda."
"Since you can't ascend, then what are you betting on?"
"Hmph! I can't ascend to the 27th level of the Golden Pagoda, but I'm not boasting either! Just now, everyone present heard it clearly. First Master said that he could easily ascend to the 27th floor of the Golden Pagoda. Since that's the case, why don't you dare to bet? "
Mu Lingyao was unable to refute Xuan Yun's words. She turned around and glared fiercely at Gu Qingfeng, as if she was blaming Gu Qingfeng for boasting regardless of the occasion. Great, now Xuan Yun had seized the opportunity.
"I didn't say that I don't dare to gamble." Gu Qingfeng sat on a chair with his legs crossed. He took a sip of wine and said slowly, "Young master Xuan Yun, you've treated me to a big meal before, and I've always remembered this. However, even if you don't like me, there's no need to make things so tense, right?"
Xuan Yun shouted with a grim voice. "I'm asking you if you dare or not!"
Compared to Xuan Yun's overbearing attitude, Gu Qingfeng still seemed to be carefree. He took a Bitter Bodhi from the plate and tossed it into his mouth, and then he chewed it before spitting out the fruit within it. After that, he said indifferently, "I thought about it carefully earlier, and I seem to have not offended you, right? As for why you don't like me, I truly don't know, and I can't be bothered to think about this question. Since you want to play today, then I'll play with you once, and it can be considered as returning a favor to you. "
"Hmph!"
Xuan Yun grunted coldly with disdain, and then he stood with his hands behind his back as he asked proudly. "You only have to answer me if you dare or not. If you don't dare, then admit defeat to me, and I'll absolutely not make things difficult for you! Moreover, there's one thing that you're mistaken about. You don't owe this young master any favors because the meal earlier was a treat from this young master to Ling 'er. It has nothing to do with you, so don't flatter yourself. This young master has never had any friendship with you! "
"Alright, after hearing you say this, it looks like I was thinking too highly of myself. Since it's like that, let's cut the crap and make the bet."
"Alright! A man has to keep his word! " Xuan Yun shouted. "Everyone present here today can bear witness. If you're unable to ascend the 27th level of the pagoda, then kneel down and kowtow to me!"
"Count me in!"
Bai Yufei said with a smile, "How can I be left out of such an interesting event?"
"Count me in as well!"
Liu Feng stood out as well and said, "If someone wants to kowtow, then how can I refuse?"
"Alright, no problem. If I'm unable to ascend the 27th level of the pagoda, then I'll kneel down before all of you and kowtow to each of you. But then again." Gu Qingfeng consumed another Marrow Cleansing Pill before he raised his head and drank a cup of wine, and then he said, "What if I'm lucky enough to ascend the 27th level of the pagoda? What should I say? "
"If you ascend the 27th level of the pagoda, then I'll kneel down and kowtow to you as well!"
"A single kowtow is too boring." Bai Yufei said with a smile, "Since we're going to play, then why don't we play a little bigger?"
Gu Qingfeng asked, "Oh? How big? "
"The reward for ascending the 27th level of the pagoda is 10,000,000 Immortal Stones. If you're able to ascend the 27th level of the pagoda, then the three of us will each kowtow to you 10,000,000 times!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings were in an uproar.
10,000,000 kowtows? How long would they have to kowtow? They wouldn't be done even if they kowtowed to death!
On the side, Mu Lingyao immediately became anxious when she heard these words.
She increasingly felt that there was something wrong with Gu Qingfeng's head. Anyone with a normal mind would not make such a bet with Xuan Yun and the others that they would definitely lose. That was the 27th level of the pagoda, so who could guarantee that they would definitely ascend it? Even if someone had ascended it once before, there was no guarantee that they would definitely be able to ascend it again the next time. After all, the element of luck in the pagoda was too great.
Yet Gu Qingfeng just had to make a bet with Xuan Yun and the others.
At first, she thought that the bet was no big deal. Even if they lost, they would just kowtow to each other. Though it was a little embarrassing, a real man knew when to yield and when not to yield. A single kowtow was nothing.
However, she never thought that Bai Yufei would actually propose to kowtow 10,000,000 times. She said furiously, "I say, Bai Yufei, if you want to make a bet, then so be it. Just treat it as having fun. There's no need to make such a big bet, right? 10,000,000 kowtows? Even if you kowtow to death, you won't be done! "
Bai Yufei's lips curled into a smile, and he said, "If you can't finish it today, you can do it tomorrow. If you can't finish it tomorrow, you can do it the day after. It's a lifetime. Isn't it just 10,000,000 kowtows? Take your time, and you'll finish it one day."
Gu Qingfeng looked at Bai Yufei and the others, and said, "I couldn't tell that you little brats were quite ruthless!"
"What? You don't dare to play? "
"I don't care. I'm just afraid that you won't be able to afford to lose."
"It's just 10,000,000 kowtows. There's nothing that the three of us can't afford to lose."
"Alright, since you can afford to lose, then I'm even more indifferent. However, I'm curious. What if I ascend to the 36th level? The reward for the 36th level is 100,000,000, then wouldn't you kowtow to me 100,000,000 times? "
"Haha! Not to mention you ascending to the 36th level, even if you ascend to the highest level, the 81st level, the three of us will still kowtow without hesitation. "
Gu Qingfeng narrowed his eyes and smiled, and said, "I heard that the reward for the 81st level is 10,000,000,000. You have to kowtow 10,000,000,000 times. Are you sure you want to play?"
"So be it 10,000,000,000 times! Why wouldn't I dare to play? "
