Not a single one could be missing!
Gu Xuan walked out of the pavilion and swept a glance at Peng Zhen. A trace of fear was revealed on the latter's face.
Previously, Gu Xuan had defeated him so cleanly, which had also cast a shadow in Peng Zhen's heart. If Gu Xuan's cultivation level was much higher than his, he would not have been able to do so. However, Gu Xuan's cultivation level was lower than his. Being challenged by someone of a higher cultivation level, the fear in his heart would be even greater.
"Hmph!" The woman in white beside him glanced at Peng Zhen and snorted softly. She reprimanded, "Look at you. Didn't you just get defeated once? What's the big deal? If you get traumatized because of this, you'll still be a piece of trash no matter how high you cultivate."
Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows and glanced at the girl. He found that the girl's beauty was not bad. As for her cultivation level, she had already reached the three-star King Level, which was quite terrifying.
This girl looked to be only a year older than Gu Xuan. To be able to reach such a realm, she was clearly a genius.
"You are?" Gu Xuan glanced at the girl in white.
"Let me introduce myself. I'm Xue Ling, ranked third on the Creation Roll." The girl in white said indifferently.
"He's already a Three-star King at this age. I guess it's about the same." Gu Xuan nodded.
After reaching the King Level, it was extremely difficult to break through to the next level. Even a genius could break through to the next level in half a year. This woman's talent was not below Yang Yu's.
"Gu Xuan, I am here because of the Flame Condensing Pills. To be honest, Peng Zhen is unable to fork out 1,000 Flame Condensing Pills." Xue Ling glanced at Gu Xuan and said slowly.
Gu Xuan's gaze was as sharp as a blade as he looked at Peng Zhen. The latter hurriedly dodged his gaze, and a hint of panic appeared on his face.
"I made a bet with him earlier. Since he is unable to take it out, I should report this to the Elder Imparting Technique. I think that he should help to resolve this matter, right?" Gu Xuan spoke in a faint voice.
Xue Ling frowned, "Gu Xuan, I hope you can give me some face. I am ranked third in the Palace of Fortune, and I am a three-star King. If you provoke me, it will be a very unwise decision."
"A thousand Flame Condensing Pills. Not a single one less." Gu Xuan sneered and said indifferently.
The number one cultivator in the Palace of Fortune dared to come and pressure him. Lin Fan really didn't know where this person got his guts from.
"Gu Xuan!" A hint of coldness finally appeared in Snow Spirit's eyes. "I've personally come to find you because of this matter. Don't be too insolent!"
"Aren't your words a little ridiculous?" Gu Xuan wore a mocking expression. "You came to me and threatened me. Now, I'm the arrogant one? ..... of Xuan's............
"Whether one is arrogant or not depends on their strength. Now that I have this strength, I naturally have the qualifications to be arrogant!" Xue Ling snorted. "You and Peng Zhen are merely exchanging pointers between fellow disciples. Just because of this, you want him to pay a thousand Fire Condensing Pills. Isn't that too much? It's just exchanging pointers between fellow disciples. Why should you make him bankrupt?"
. Li.................................................................
. "" What a joke. " The mockery on Gu Xuan's face deepened. "If I remember correctly, Peng Zhen was the one who started the bet. I merely accepted the challenge. If I lost, I would have to leave the Palace of Fortune. If that happened, I'm afraid you wouldn't have said anything, right?"
Gu Xuan laughed coldly in his heart. It was obvious that Peng Zhen was the one who provoked him time and time again. He even tried to kick him out of the Palace of Fortune, but failed because he was not strong enough.
But now, this Snow Spirit was talking about some inexplicable camaraderie between fellow disciples. If they won, they would achieve their goal. If they lost, they couldn't be too ruthless. Could it be that all the good things in the world were for Peng Zhen alone?
Even if these thousand Flame Condensing Pills didn't affect his breakthrough, he wouldn't give in.
A mere King Realm cultivator was nothing in his eyes.
"So you're not going to give me face?" Xue Ling said coldly.
"Your face is nothing in my eyes." Gu Xuan's face turned cold. "A mere third place in the Palace of Fortune is enough to make you so narcissistic. Do you think anyone should give you face? Who do you think you are? "
"If you want to deal with me, go ahead. But today, you must leave the thousand Flame Condensing Pills here!"
Gu Xuan's voice, which was filled with disdain, landed in Xue Ling's ears. Immediately, the latter's expression became incomparably ugly. She was Xue Ling, the top genius of the sect. Even the sect elders had to respect her. Yet, Gu Xuan actually dared to insult her in such a manner.
She and Peng Zhen were cousins. Peng Zhen had no choice but to beg her. She originally thought that since she had come in person, Gu Xuan would give her face and waive the one thousand Fire-condensing Pills. It was not a big deal.
She didn't think that Gu Xuan would look down on her.
"Alright, then I'll return the thousand Flame Condensing Pills on Peng Zhen's behalf!"
Xue Ling's face darkened. She threw out the thousand Flame Condensing Pills and stared at Gu Xuan with a murderous look. "You dare to take my pills? From today onwards, don't even think about taking half a step into the Palace of Fortune!"
"Let's go!" Xue Ling shouted and left with Peng Zhen.
She was the only female disciple in the Palace of Fortune. She was both pretty and talented. Most of the geniuses in the Palace of Fortune had feelings for her.
As for the first and second place in the Palace of Fortune, they were all her admirers. In other words, other than Yang Yu, everyone was on her side.
If Gu Xuan dared to provoke her, he would be making an enemy out of the entire Palace of Fortune.
Peng Zhen turned around and mustered up her courage. She said fiercely, "Gu Xuan, if you give my cousin some face this time, you might be able to receive her help. But if you continue to act like this, you will become the enemy of the entire Palace of Fortune!"
Gu Xuan looked at the two of them and shook his head with a smile.
Maybe Peng Zhen was right. Being on good terms with Xue Ling was akin to building a connection with the entire Palace of Fortune. But provoking Xue Ling would mean endless trouble in the Palace of Fortune.
But to Gu Xuan, this so-called disadvantage was nothing compared to the thousand Flame Condensing Pills. Once he got the Flame Condensing Pills and broke through to the next cultivation level, even if Xue Ling and the others provoked him again, he could just crush them with force.
