"Stop!" Just as Chu Zhaoyang wanted to fight another round with Lu Xiaotian, Wu Shan, who was watching the battle with Daoist Yi Hua, stopped Chu Zhaoyang with an ugly expression.
"It seems we can't fight anymore. Little Chu has lost this round. I'll gladly accept the 10 million low grade immortal crystals. If Little Chu wants to fight again, you can come find me whenever you have 10 million low grade immortal crystals prepared. If you want to win back your capital and interest, you can also bet 20 million. This time, I won by relying on my immortal pet. It's an unfair win. "
Lu Xiaotian's smile made Chu Zhaoyang so angry that he almost vomited blood. 10 million low grade immortal crystals. Even though he was the son of an immortal monarch, he had to sell a lot of treasures and use his identity as the son of an immortal monarch to borrow a lot from the Honghao Heavenly Court. He actually lost just like that. Even though Chu Zhaoyang's status was noble and he had never worried about spirit stones or other cultivation resources, he felt like his heart was bleeding.
Mu Xia couldn't help but giggle when she saw Chu Zhaoyang's livid but helpless expression.
Nie Tianhou, Shentu Zhanfeng, and the others rolled their eyes but were also very excited. They didn't want to bet on Lu Xiaotian, but if Lu Xiaotian won this time, the immortal crystals they earned from the gambling house they set up would be very generous.
"Since you've won the battle, why are you so unforgiving? Fellow Daoist Yi Hua, isn't this junior of your Alchemy Pavilion a bit too overbearing? Moreover, he didn't win completely with his own strength. He won with numbers, yet he's still so complacent. "
When Wu Shan saw how protective Daoist Yi Hua was of Lu Xiaotian, he knew that he couldn't go over Daoist Yi Hua to teach Lu Xiaotian a lesson. He could only look at Daoist Yi Hua with dissatisfaction, hoping that Daoist Yi Hua would scold him or stop Lu Xiaotian from continuing to add fuel to the fire.
"If Fellow Daoist Wu Shan had seen Chu Zhaoyang's arrogant and condescending expression after his victory, you wouldn't have said that. Little friend Dongfang can't even compare to one in ten thousand. As for the advantage in numbers, it was because Chu Zhaoyang summoned his immortal pet first. If little friend Dongfang didn't have two powerful immortal pets of his own, wouldn't he have been defeated by Chu Zhaoyang and the Blazing Golden Bird? Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Chu Zhaoyang only has himself to blame for his defeat. "Daoist Yi Hua directly refuted Wu Shan's dissatisfaction.
"Fine, since this is how your Honghao Heavenly Court treats your guests, there will be a time for you to return the favor." Wu Shan coldly harrumphed and took a step forward. The space in front of him seemed to have cracked open. Wu Shan stepped into the crack and disappeared from sight. In the next moment, he appeared beside Chu Zhaoyang.
"I've come on the orders of the immortal lord. Come back with me." He no longer had the face to remain in Nine Yang City. Given Chu Zhaoyang's current state, it wasn't appropriate for him to remain here either. Without waiting for Chu Zhaoyang's response, Wu Shan reached out and grabbed at the void, pulling Chu Zhaoyang over and vanishing into the opening in the void.
Lu Xiaotian looked at the spot where Wu Shan and Chu Zhaoyang had disappeared with his hands behind his back. His eyes flashed. Even if Wu Shan was a golden immortal, Lu Xiaotian didn't find it all that hard to understand.
After Chu Zhaoyang was defeated by Zhou Yu, he no longer had the face to remain in Nine Yang City. However, returning to the Mystic Jade Court in this manner was also a disgrace to him.
"Senior Wu, please help me. Let me fight that Dongfang brat again. I must kill him on the spot to appease the hatred in my heart!"
Chu Zhaoyang said hatefully.
"His two immortal pets are incomparably powerful. You've already lost to him once, even when you had the Blazing Vast Golden Bird. What's more, you're alone now. You can't possibly ask him not to use his immortal pets, can you?"
Wu Shan frowned.
"That's right. Let's see if he dares to fight me one-on-one if I don't use my immortal pets." Chu Zhaoyang had wanted to talk a little more, but he'd suffered a crushing defeat. If Wu Shan hadn't interfered, he would've definitely been injured in the duel. Perhaps his injuries wouldn't have been light. After all, he'd gone all out against the other arcane immortals of the Honghao Celestial Court.
No matter how prideful Chu Zhaoyang was, he couldn't say that he could take on Lu Xiaotian and his two immortal pets.
"I'm only responsible for bringing you back this time. As for whether you want to challenge Nine Yang City again, you can come here on your own if you think you've won. Or I can send you here." Wu Shan's heart ached when he learned that Chu Zhaoyang had lost ten million low-grade immortal crystals in a single duel. Even if he didn't sell his treasures, he couldn't take out ten million low-grade immortal crystals. Chu Zhaoyang, this wastrel, had lost in a single duel. He didn't know how many treasures Chu Zhaoyang had passed down to him from the Earth Nether Immortal Lord.
Chu Zhaoyang was like a gambler who'd lost all his money. Even if he could still take out ten million low-grade immortal crystals, Wu Shan wouldn't allow Chu Zhaoyang to continue risking his life in front of him. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to explain himself to the Earth Nether Immortal Lord.
Chu Zhaoyang's expression froze. If Wu Shan was just a Sky Immortal, he would've reprimanded him. But after reaching the Golden Immortal level, even his father, the Earth Nether Immortal Lord, would treat him with respect. A mere Profound Immortal like him wouldn't be taken seriously at all. Even if Wu Shan reprimanded him, the Earth Nether Immortal Lord wouldn't protect Chu Zhaoyang.
"Very well, I'll listen to you, Senior. When I return, I'll regroup and think of a way to avenge myself."
Chu Zhaoyang took a deep breath and said.
"That's the way. Learn to be brave after being humiliated. That Pill Sage Dong Fang's cultivation isn't as simple as you think. Even without those two immortal pets, he won't be easy to deal with."
Wu Shan reminded him.
Chu Zhaoyang nodded, but he didn't think much of it. Lu Xiaotian's Buddhist skills were indeed impressive, but he couldn't even sense his opponent's Heavenly Abode Intent. If the Three-legged Crow wasn't so powerful that its fire affected his Dao, he wouldn't have been defeated so quickly. Chu Zhaoyang couldn't help but feel envious of the Three-legged Crow. How could a guy with no background own such a strange bird? It was such a waste for it to fall into the hands of a pill sage.
While Chu Zhaoyang and Wu Shan returned to the Mystic Jade Heavenly Court, cheers rang out in Nine Yang City. Most of them had nothing to do with the victory.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Chu Zhaoyang's defeat was mostly due to the Three-legged Crow and Half Calamity. But so what?
