Seeing that Li Muyang was really going to dive into the weak water, Tie Muxin ignored his bet with Chu Xun, rushed to the shore and shouted, "Li Muyang, come back, come back — — you won't be able to come back if you jump in."
His concern was evident in his words and expression.
Li Muyang was deeply moved, saying with a smile: "Brother Muxin, did you make a bet with someone?"
Li Muyang's eyes and ears were sharp, although Chu Xun had deliberately lowered his voice for fear of being heard, but Li Muyang still clearly heard their bet.
Hearing Li Muyang's question, Tie Muxin looked ashamed. "I just said a few words out of anger, don't take it to heart — —"
"Words out of anger?" Chu Xun snorted coldly. "You and I have a bet, you said that Li Muyang will certainly be able to enter the weak water, and if he loses, he will apologise to me in public, and at the same time kowtow to me three times. Everyone here is a witness to our bet. Now you want to break the bet in public? If you break your promise, what credibility do you have in the future? Who would dare to trust you? "
"When did I, Tie Muxin, go back on my word? We, the grassland people, value our promises the most, we will never break our promises. Isn't it just three kowtows? Can't I just kowtow? "As Tie Muxin spoke, he was about to kneel down and kowtow to Chu Xun. As long as he kowtowed, Li Muyang would not have to enter the weak water — —
He did not think too much about the bet before, the illusion was so big, and he thought that he might not be able to meet Li Muyang. He did not expect Li Muyang to really come riding the Wolf King. He had really lifted a rock and dropped it on his own foot.
"Wait." Qiandu reached out to grab Tie Muxin's arm that was about to kneel down. "You haven't lost yet, why are you in such a hurry to kowtow?"
"I can't let Brother Muyang be coerced by a lowly person because of my bet." Tie Muxin insisted on kneeling down.
Chu Xun was a person who was extremely concerned about his reputation, and when he heard Tie Muxin actually insult him as a vile person in public and say that he was coerced by him, he was even more infuriated.
"Who was the one who was so confident in a certain person at the beginning? Who was the one who said that he would definitely have a way to enter the water? What? At that time, he felt that since the person wasn't in front of him, he could gamble however he wanted. He didn't have to fulfill the terms of the bet, right? Now that the person in question is right in front of you, seeing that you can't deny it, you start to attack the other party as a vile person, saying that you are being coerced by the other party … Such a character, all the brothers present can bear witness to it. Who is the real villain here? "
"Exactly. If one is willing to bet, one must accept defeat. You have to bear the consequences of what you promised others … "
"Since you said that he has a way to enter the water, why don't we just let him try …"
"You bragged a lot before. Now that your friend is here, why don't you let him enter the water for us to see?"
※ ※ ※
Everyone echoed Chu Xun's words.
They did not care about the bet between Chu Xun and Tie Muxin, nor did they care who had to kowtow to whom.
What they cared about was that there was someone who could explore the water for them.
If Li Muyang really found a way to enter the water, it would be a great blessing for them.
"Chu Xun, you don't have to provoke me. When did I, Tie Muxin, say anything to deny it? I'm not a two-faced villain like you. " Tie Muxin was furious, staring at the people who were fanning the flames behind him, and wanted to rush up and beat them up.
"Tie Muxin — —" Li Muyang stopped him, saying: "A gentleman's promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold. Since you made a bet, you have to fulfill the terms of the bet. "
"I'm about to fulfill the bet." Tie Muxin replied foolishly, breaking away from Qiandu's hand and was about to kneel down and kowtow again.
"I know you want to fulfill the bet, but you don't have to be so anxious to fulfill the bet." Li Muyang's gaze was fixed on Chu Xun, asking with a smile: "If Tie Muxin wins, what will you do?"
"What? Do you really dare to enter the Weak water? "Chu Xun's face was full of ridicule, and even now he did not forget to add fuel to the fire.
Li Muyang pretended not to understand the deeper meaning of his words, saying aloud: "You have to first let me understand what kind of bet this is, to see if it's fair to Tie Muxin."
"Of course it's fair." Chu Xun pointed to the vast river in front of him. "If you really have a way to enter the Weak water, I will publicly apologise to Tie Muxin."
"Just apologise?"
"I will also kowtow. Whatever he does, I will do. "Chu Xun was a little angry, his attitude incomparably firm. "Li Muyang, as long as you dare to enter the Weak water, Tie Muxin will win. I will naturally fulfill the bet between me and him. Of course, the premise is that you have the guts to enter the water. "
Li Muyang pointed to Qiandu and Lin Canghai. "What if the two of them also enter the water with me? How many times will you kowtow to Tie Muxin? "
"You — —"
"What? I'm raising the stakes, you don't dare to bet? "
"Why not?" Chu Xun clenched his teeth, glaring fiercely at Qiandu and Lin Canghai. Anyway, he did not have a good impression of these people, since they were seeking death, then they could not blame him. "If they enter the water with you, I will kowtow to Tie Muxin nine times."
"Student Chu Xun, such a handsome and extraordinary person kneeling to kowtow, everyone must be very interested, I'm looking forward to it — —"
Splash — —
Li Muyang suddenly leaped into the depths of the Weak water.
Everyone was shocked.
Just now Wu Chou of the Nine Heaven Sword Sect jumped into the Weak water with a shield, and instantly disappeared without a trace. He didn't expect Li Muyang to jump just like that, and it seemed that he didn't have any protective measures.
Wasn't he digging his own grave?
Sure enough, like Wu Chou, after Li Muyang fell into the water, his face showed a painful expression, he opened his mouth to shout, but before he could say anything, he sank silently.
There were no ripples on the surface of the water, not even a bubble.
A living person had just fallen into the water, but it was as if nothing had happened. The Weak water was really wonderful.
"Li Muyang — —" Tie Muxin was terrified, his voice trembling.
If Li Muyang died in the Weak water, then he would be ashamed for the rest of his life.
His eyes were fixed on the river, shouting aloud: "Li Muyang, come out, come out — —"
The scene was deathly silent, no one responded to his cry.
Chu Xun was terrified, he did not expect Li Muyang to really dare to jump into the Weak water. If Li Muyang fell into the water, then he and Tie Muxin would lose the bet, and would need to apologise and kowtow to him — —
But then he thought that he only needed to apologise and kowtow to Tie Muxin, while Li Muyang would lose his life. He felt that this deal was too worthwhile.
If Li Muyang died, Lu Qiji would not pay attention to him, right?
Of course, he would not take the initiative to mention this.
Seeing Tie Muxin's nervous and worried expression, Chu Xun was overjoyed, as if he had drunk a bowl of wine.
After waiting for a long time, the river was still quiet.
Li Muyang had disappeared without a trace, as if he would never come back.
Lin Canghai walked over to Chu Xun, his eyes unkind as he said: "Li Muyang has fallen into the water, are you going to kneel down and apologize to Tie Muxin?"
