Since ancient times, Shen Gongbao had been feared by almost everyone, hated by ghosts, and avoided by gods because of his misfortune. Almost no one was willing to take the initiative to get close to him. Since ancient times, he had gained the reputation of being the God of Misfortune and a jinx. Even unparalleled powerhouses avoided him and never had any friends.
There was no lack of cynical nature in his heart.
All along, he had never accepted the invitation of any powerhouse and was not willing to submit to anyone. When he was not needed, they all avoided him. When he was needed, they wanted him to submit. How could there be such an easy thing in this world?
Thus, he had always been wandering the myriad of worlds in a frivolous manner, and he did as he pleased. He would not easily submit to any powerhouse. Even if he was now imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, he still had no intention of submitting. Death, he was not afraid of death. Even unparalleled powerhouses could not erase his spirit. Once he died, he would naturally enter the cycle of reincarnation. He would be reincarnated again. No one could stop him.
"It's a little impossible."
Di Shitian smiled faintly and clapped his hands. Behind him, a maid brought a table of food and wine. She opened the door and moved the food and wine in. He also followed in. They sat opposite each other.
Shen Gongbao picked up his chopsticks and unceremoniously picked up the food and wine in front of him. Dragon meat and phoenix meat were almost all placed on the table. He swallowed in big mouthfuls. As he ate, he nodded and said, "Haha, I've been here for so many years, and I've finally eaten my fill. This should be a supreme delicacy that only the God of Cookery can make. Even if I die this time, it's worth it. " Without hesitation, he praised loudly. After a pause, he said, "Your Majesty Demon King, from the looks of it, you didn't just come to say those words just now. With your temperament, unless you have the confidence to persuade me, you will never step into the Heavenly Prison. "
"Shen Gongbao is Shen Gongbao. That's right. I came this time to make a bet with you."
Di Shitian looked at Shen Gongbao calmly and said indifferently.
"A bet?" Shen Gongbao could not help but stop what he was doing in surprise. He looked at Di Shitian with some confusion. He did not quite understand the meaning behind these words.
"That's right, I'll give you a chance to leave the prison."
"Oh, that's interesting. Since you're giving me a chance to leave and you're making a bet, there must be something at stake." In the end, Shengong was an old antique that had existed since ancient times. In the blink of an eye, he had already collected his thoughts and calmly said.
"I never gamble, but today is an exception." Di Shitian looked straight into Shengong's eyes and said in a deep voice, "You're right. Since it's a gamble, there should be stakes. The bet is very simple. If you win, I will set you free, and I will not pursue the matter of the two treasures you took from me in the Fallen God Abyss. They will belong to you. "Such a bet was a direct hit to Shengong's life.
He couldn't refuse at all. However, he immediately asked, "What if I lose?"
When it came to gambling, there were bound to be winners and losers. There was no such thing as a sure-win bet in this world.
"If I win, the bet is also simple. The treasures you took back then will still belong to you. However, I want you, Shengong Gongbao, to pledge allegiance to the Demon City."
There was a trace of caution and confidence in his words. He said, "I don't know if you're willing to take a gamble."
After he finished speaking, he did not rush Shengong Gongbao. He just watched quietly. Waiting for him to make a decision.
The expression on Shengong's face kept changing, as if he had opened a dyeing shop. He seemed to be constantly thinking, weighing the gains and losses in his heart. After a long time, he raised his head and said with a faint smile, "Demon King, if I lose, aren't you afraid that I will go back on my word? You'll leave just like that. "
"I believe that you're not someone who goes back on his word," Di Shitian said calmly.
This sentence caused an indescribable feeling to grow in Shengong's heart. In this world, there was actually someone who would believe him. A feeling of being trusted appeared in the bottom of his heart. His whole expression suddenly became solemn. He said, "Well, since the Demon King dares to trust me, the God of Doom, then I'll listen. How do you want to gamble?"
He was locked up here. No matter how he gambled, he would not expect to make the decision himself. Having a chance to get out was already the most precious thing.
"It's very simple. I will set up a Gate of Heaven here. Follow this Gate of Heaven, you can leave the Celestial Prison and the Demon City. When you leave the Demon City, there will also be a Gate of Heaven. What I bet is that after you go out, you will voluntarily follow the Gate of Heaven again and return to the Celestial Prison. If you don't, then I lose. Naturally, you can leave freely and don't need to come back. The matter between us will be written off. What do you think of this bet? "
Di Shitian slowly told him about the bet.
"You let me out and bet that I will follow the Gate of Heaven again and return to this Celestial Prison?"
Shengong suddenly had a feeling of wanting to laugh. He looked at Di Shitian with a strange gaze. "Do you know that I am full of misfortune, evil, and disaster? In this world, any dangerous place is like flat ground to me. It is impossible to trap me. After I go out, how can I return to the Celestial Prison? What a joke. Don't tell me you plan to use some method to let me out? "
He could not help but be surprised. This bet, to him, was not difficult at all. Almost at the moment he finished listening, he was certain that he would definitely win this bet.
"How do you know the final result of the bet before the end?" Di Shitian was not swayed by this at all. He just looked at him with a faint smile and said, "I don't know, are you going to gamble or not?"
"Gamble!! Why wouldn't I gamble with such a bet? "
Shen Gong pondered for a moment, but he couldn't figure out what kind of conspiracy was behind it. He didn't hesitate any longer and nodded cautiously. "If I don't bet on such a gamble, then I deserve to be struck by lightning. I'll gamble. "
"Good, a gentleman's word is a promise!!"
Clap!!
He stretched out his palm and made three claps in the air as an oath.
After that, Di Shitian did not stay and turned to leave the Celestial Prison.
Shengong Gongbao looked at the back of the departing figure with a puzzled look in his deep eyes. He muttered to himself, "Where did this Demon Emperor get his confidence from? How dare he make such a bet with me? With my countless years of experience in this world, there are definitely not many places in the Source World that can trap me. What exactly is it that gives him such confidence? "
His heart was filled with doubts.
But thinking about the bet, he still felt that his chance of winning was almost 70%. If there were no accidents, he would definitely win.
"If you can really let me return to the Celestial Prison, then there is nothing wrong with me submitting to your Demon City. You trust me, then I, Shengong, am not a man of my word. Speaking of which, I am also from the Demon Clan. "
He muttered to himself.
"Crazy Di, what medicine are you hiding in your gourd? You are willing to make such a bet, this does not seem like your character. What is going on? With Shengong's ability, once he leaves the Celestial Prison, he will be like a dragon entering the sea. I am afraid that he will disappear without a trace in an instant. "
'Ming' had seen everything that had happened before and was still very puzzled. He looked puzzled.
"You don't have to think too much about this matter. You will know when the time comes."
Di Shitian did not continue to talk about this matter in depth. He turned around and left the Celestial Prison, directly entering the Lingxiao Palace.
In the main hall, all the important ministers were standing in the hall.
Sitting upright in the main hall, their bodies naturally overflowed with a supreme majesty. He scanned the great hall and said, "The Thousand Demon City will soon return to the Source World. Moreover, when we return, we will experience a great war that has never happened before. This war will involve many forces in the universe. Many of these forces want to kill us, but there are also many who are close to us. This time, when we go out, we will officially announce to the universe for the first time since ancient times that the Demon Clan will not be trampled on. Those who are close to us are our allies, and those who are our enemies are our enemies. Enemies will be defeated, crippled, and killed. Whoever dares to block our way will be killed without mercy! "
"Dear ministers, do you have confidence?!"
His impassioned voice echoed in the main hall.
There was no reply in the main hall, but there was a blazing light in the eyes that looked at him, and there was a resolute belief in them. The Demon Clan had waited for this day for too long.
The blood in their bodies was boiling and burning.
"Dark Light Mirror!"
A light mirror quickly condensed in the main hall. It was crystal clear, as if it was real, and hung in mid-air. In the Dark Light Mirror, one could clearly see the entire Demon City and even the scenes and things around the ancient city.
"Demon City, break through the barrier and return to the origin!"
In the Dark Light Mirror, one could see that under the cover of the Sky Shrouding Mirror, the Demon City had completely hidden all of its divine radiance. Even the vast aura that the Supreme Artifact naturally emitted was strangely restrained, and not a trace of it was revealed. It looked just like when it was still a Supreme Artifact, but more restrained, and it looked a little damaged.
Rumble!
The Ultimate Emperor Jade Archive in the Demon City suddenly burst out with a bright divine radiance, and a vast amount of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi was continuously absorbed from the void, and quickly poured into the ancient city. A large amount of Essence Qi followed the Dao inscriptions on the ancient city, and spread to every inch of the city. Suddenly, an ancient aura spread out. The ancient city moved, and crashed into the void.
Crack!
The Supreme Artifact was comparable to an unparalleled expert, and this collision was simply earth-shattering.
A terrifyingly huge crack was formed in the void. Countless terrifying disasters were in the crack.
The ancient city fiercely crashed into it, and the countless disasters could not get close to the ancient city at all. When they got close, they were directly shattered by the ancient city. There were no taboos. In an instant, they rushed out of the Banished Land.
At this moment, the Demon Clan in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall saw another strange scene in the Dark Light Mirror. (To be continued, if you want to know what happened next, please go to www.qidian.com, support the author, support the original reading!)
