However, just as the flying shuttle approached, Xiao Hua heard Lou Ting curse under his breath.
As expected, when the flying shuttle landed, the silver light around the three Immortals had yet to dissipate. A sharp voice sounded from the Immortal in front of them. "Old Lou, long time no see. How are you?"
"Hmph …" Lou Ting snorted coldly. "Old Ping, how thoughtful of you to guard this place and use a secret technique to spy on me. Were you afraid that I wouldn't come?"
The silver light around the Immortal's body dissipated along with the voice, revealing a thin male Immortal. This male Immortal was dressed in black and had three strands of beard on his face. He should have looked like an immortal, but no matter how Xiao Hua looked at him, he felt that this male Immortal looked wretched. When Xiao Hua took a closer look, he realized that the male Immortal's eyebrows were extremely long, but they were inverted. Unlike ordinary people, they looked very awkward.
"Haha, that's right!" The male Immortal called Ping Cheng glanced at Xiao Hua and immediately ignored him. He stared at Lou Ting and said, "I was afraid that you would forget the bet between our two families, so I waited here respectfully!"
"Bet?" Lou Ting was stunned and blurted out, "Ping Cheng, when did my Lou Family make a bet with your Ping Family?"
"Haha …" Immediately, the Immortal beside Ping Cheng laughed and said, "Fellow Immortal Lou, Fellow Immortal Ping was right. You really did forget."
"You?" Lou Ting was even more shocked. He looked at the Immortal's appearance after the light dissipated and asked, "You are Fellow Immortal Lu Xu from the Feather Dust Clan?"
The male Immortal was even thinner than Ping Cheng. Although he was dressed in light blue, there was a shadow flashing on his back. If he was not wrong, it should be the Feather Dust Clan's unique flying feather.
"That's right, it's me …" The male Immortal's gaze was like lightning. He looked at Lou Ting and said, "Since Fellow Immortal Lou still remembers me, I'm sure you won't forget me!"
"Hiss …" Lou Ting suddenly sucked in a breath of cold air and said, "Fellow Immortal Lu, that … that was just a joke I made with Ping Chengjiu. How … how could you take it seriously?"
"Fellow Immortal Lou …" The last male Immortal smiled and said, "We male Immortals keep our promises. Moreover, when Fellow Immortal Lou and Ping Cheng made the bet, this old man was there too. This old man heard every word you said clearly. How could it be a joke?"
"Bai Zhu Mang … Big Palm Master Bai?" Lou Ting was even more shocked as he anxiously asked, "You … Why are you here too?"
"Hehe …" Bai Ze smiled insincerely and dispersed the protective silver light around his body. He then asked, "Sea City is not a tiger's den. Why can't I come here?"
"No, no …" Lou Ting realized that it was inappropriate and hurriedly waved his hand. "That's not what I meant. What I meant was …"
Unfortunately, before Lou Ting could finish, Ping Cheng interrupted him and said, "Old Lou, this is Deputy Merchant Leader Bai in front of you, not Chief Merchant Leader Bai!"
"Ah …" Lou Ting was shocked. A strange light flashed across his eyes, then he raised his eyebrows, bowed and said, "I see. Congratulations, Deputy Master Bai, congratulations!"
Bai Ze didn't seem to be moved. Instead, he said blandly, "Since you know that I'm the Deputy Master, I think you also know why Ping Cheng invited me here. The bet you made involves my Yao Xuan Trading Company. It's a serious matter, so I have to come."
Lou Ting felt bitter. He opened his mouth, seeming to say something, but swallowed his words. Instead, he asked in a low voice, "I wonder if Deputy Master She …"
"She Jin..." Bai Hao dragged his tone, as if he was gloating. "He came to Sea City under the order of the Master of the Shang Family. However, he disappeared on the way and we couldn't get any information from him. It's said that he ran away for fear of being punished for his crimes. Therefore, I received the order from the Deputy Master, and came to Sea City under the order of the Deputy Master! Firstly, I'm here to manage the affairs of the Deputy Master, and secondly, I'm here to find evidence of She Jin's crimes! My friend Lou, have you seen Yu Jin? If you know anything about him, report to me as soon as possible. Our Yao Xuan Trading Company will reward you handsomely … "
"No … No …" Hearing what Bai Ze said, how could Lou Ting dare to say that he had visited She Jin on his way to Chen Xiao Lake?
"Good!" Bai Ze nodded blandly and said, "Although I will focus on the detailed investigation of She Jin's deal after I arrive in Sea City, my friend Lou, if you know anything about this, you can tell me first …"
Speaking of this, Bai Ze changed the topic and continued, "As for the bet between you and my friend Ping, I can be counted as a witness. Do you … remember it?"
Under this situation, what else could Lou Ting say? He nodded slightly and said, "Deputy Master Bai, you're right. Back then, Deputy Master Bai … should be nearby …"
"Good!" Bai Ze grinned and said, "I believe that all powerful families who cooperate with our Yao Xuan Trading Company will keep their promises. As for the bet between you two, I'm willing to be a witness as well, to give justice to you and my friend Bai. "
"Yes, I understand …" Lou Ting said helplessly, "With Deputy Master Bai as a witness, I can rest assured."
"Haha …" At this moment, Ping Cheng laughed out loud and said, "Lou old man, since you agree to the bet, just come with me. I'd like to see how powerful your Lou Family's talisman-crafting skills are!"
"Hehe …" Lou Ting sneered and said, "How can the talisman-crafting skills of my Lou Family be compared with yours? But … I made a deal with Yao Xuan Trading Company as a stake, but what did your Ping Family offer as a stake? "
Ping Cheng smiled, took out a broken Rosy Cloud Festival and said, "Look, what's this?"
"What's this?" Lou Ting paused, reached out his hand and attempted to take it.
Unexpectedly, Ping Cheng took his hand back, leaving Lou Ting with an unnatural look.
"I found this in an ancient ruin …" Ping Cheng looked at the Rosy Cloud Festival in his hand and said proudly, "According to the appraisal of Yao Xuan Trading Company, this belongs to the heaven of Confucian immortals, and a cultivation method called 'Clear Red Mist' is recorded on it …"
Lou Ting was displeased. He waved his hand and said, "Since it's a cultivation method of Confucian immortals, why would my Lou Family want it?"
"Hehe …" Ping Cheng was still smiling as he continued, "This cultivation method of Confucian immortals is nothing special, but the method of refining a type of immortal pill is recorded on it. It looks familiar to me!"
"It … It can't be … Shao Yin Pill, can it?" Lou Ting was stunned.
"Congratulations, my friend Lou, you guessed it right!" Ping Cheng gave him a thumbs up and said, "Seeing the method of refining Shao Yin Pill, I thought of you, my friend Lou. Of course, if you don't agree, I'll give this cultivation method of Clear Red Mist to Vice Merchant Leader Bai to congratulate him for taking on such an important task! "
Lou Ting clenched his teeth as if he was going to break them. He knew that there must be something wrong with this cultivation method. Otherwise, Ping Cheng would have given it to Bai Ze long ago. However, he still wanted to keep this cultivation method. After all, this Shao Yin Pill was a secret technique of Lou Family, and he didn't want this secret technique to be exposed.
After a long while, Lou Ting said, "Old Ping, the method of refining Shao Yin Pill is indeed important, but compared to the deal between my Lou Family and Yao Xuan Trading Company, it's still insignificant …"
"Of course!" Ping Cheng smiled again, took out a Black Immortal Pupil and handed it to Lou Ting, "This is the wager this old man has prepared. That Clear Void Crimson Qi cultivation technique is only one of them …"
Lou Ting's expression was calm as water. He took the Dark Immortal Pupil and scanned it with Wannian, then said blandly, "So, my friend Ping has prepared for this!"
"Ah …" Ping Cheng pretended to be surprised and said, "Could it be that you didn't prepare for this? I still remember how arrogant Fellow Daoist Lou was at that time! As long as I'm ready, I can come to you at any time. You're always willing to play with me! "
"That's right!" Lou Ting was forced into a corner by Ping Cheng. He could only hold back his anger, nodded and said, "I'm always willing to play with you! But, my disciples aren't with me. I need to send a message to tell them to come back … "
"Of course, of course …" Ping Cheng glanced at the few Lou Family disciples on the boat, nodded and said, "I know that you took a large boat when you came out, and all the famous disciples of your Lou Family were on it. Now, you're all alone, so they naturally went somewhere else …"
Before Ping Cheng finished, Lou Ting interrupted him and asked, "I remember … in our bet, only disciples from two families are allowed to play, right?"
"No …" Ping Cheng hurriedly refuted, "My friend Lou, you didn't say that only disciples from two families are allowed to play!"
"Hmm …" Lou Ting sneered and said, "I remember saying that!"
"No, no …" Lu Xu said from the side, "I don't remember Immortal Friend Lou saying that."
"Alright then!" Lou Ting frowned and said, "In that case, the time and place of the bet … should be decided by my Lou Family?"
"The time should be within ten Yuan Days!" Bai Qun thought for a while and said, "As for the location, I don't think it needs to be too far. Flowing Jade Swamp is fine! If you think I'm not suitable, you can find other Immortals … "
"No, no …" Lou Ting hurriedly smiled and said, "It's not that I don't think you're suitable, but I'm betting with Ping Cheng on the art of making talismans. I'm afraid you'll be deceived by Ping Cheng."
"How can I deceive Merchant Leader Bai?" Ping Cheng snorted and said, "It can only mean that you still don't trust Merchant Leader Bai!"
"Hehe, it's okay, it's okay …" Bai Qun smiled and waved his hand. "I'm a part of the game after all, so it's not convenient for me to make any decisions. I'll just leave this matter to you. I'll just be a witness."
At this point, Lou Ting had nothing to say. He nodded and said, "Since Merchant Leader Bai is so open-minded, I'm relieved."
"In that case …" Ping Cheng said confidently, "Old Lou, I'll wait for your news. If I don't hear from you in ten Yuan Days, I'll take it that you've admitted defeat!"
"Hmm, what if I send you a message and you don't dare to respond?"
"Then you'll naturally win! Hahaha … "Ping Cheng laughed and then flew back to the mountain peak with Bai Qun and Lu Xu.
