Invincible Over the World
Chapter 627 - 627 624 Collecting the Bet

627: Chapter 624: Collecting the Bet 627: Chapter 624: Collecting the Bet Before long, Huang Xiaolong had returned to Xuanwu City through the Transmission Array, but upon arriving at Luo Tong Mansion, the atmosphere was somewhat oppressive and even a bit bleak.

Only then did Huang Xiaolong learn that in less than two days since the end of his Inner Sect Disciple assessment, Luo Tong Mansion had been attacked more than a dozen times!

Fortunately, with the protection of creatures like the Nine-tailed Bright Tiger and the Water and Fire Giant Arm Ape, and having previously asked his eldest senior brother to have the city guards specifically protect Luo Tong Mansion, there were still many casualties.

Of the more than three hundred subordinates Huang Xiaolong brought from the Martial Soul World, over sixty had died!

Luckily, everyone from the Huang Family, his nephew Guo Xiaofan, Xie Puti, Zhao Shu, Zhang Fu, the Heavenly Buddha Emperor, Emperor Duanren, and others were all unharmed.

Huang Xiaolong’s eyes blazed with anger as he asked Zhao Shu, “Have you found out which family sent the killers?”

Zhao Shu shook his head and said, “The disciples from Xuanwu Academy and the Law Enforcement Team of Cloud Sea Continent are investigating, but there are no results yet.”

Huang Xiaolong’s eyes glittered coldly.

Though they hadn’t figured it out yet, the Jiang Family was the most likely culprit, of course, other Super Families like the Gudu Family, Wang Family, and others were also possibilities.

As for those First-class and Second-class families, they presumably wouldn’t dare defy Xuanwu City’s rules and take such risks in defiance of Cloud Sea Continent’s rules.

After all, as tempting and precious as the Ice Soul Treasure might be, one must have the life and strength to keep it.

Afterwards, Huang Xiaolong had his parents and others pack up to head for Golden Dragon Peak with him.

When people like the Heavenly Buddha Emperor, Emperor Duanren, and others from the Huang Family arrived at Golden Dragon Peak, they were all astonished by the terrifying spiritual energy of the land and the eighty-one palaces of the Nine Palace Eight Diagram Formation.

Facing the paradise-like Golden Dragon Peak, facing the magnificently beautiful eighty-one palaces like that of an Immortal Palace, Huang Peng, Su Yan, and others were naturally overjoyed.

Huang Xiaomin, his sister, was the first to rush into the eighty-one palaces, whooping like a little girl.

Following that, everyone joyfully picked palaces.

The Huang Family chose the palace at the very center, closest to the Nine Yang Holy Water Jade Pond.

The eighty-one palaces each featured over ten separate courtyards, an Alchemy Room, Great Hall, and more.

Zhao Shu, Zhang Fu, the Heavenly Buddha Emperor, Emperor Duanren, the Guo Family Ancestor, and Xie Puti jointly chose a palace right next to the central palace of the Huang Family.

Now, Huang Xiaolong’s holy subordinates totaled two hundred and sixty-eight.

So, they occupied about twenty palaces in total.

Most of the remaining palaces were still vacant.

The Nine-tailed Bright Tiger, the Water and Fire Giant Arm Ape, and other beasts guarded the main gate of the Nine Palaces Bagua Palace.

Once everyone from the Huang Family was settled, Huang Xiaolong stepped outside the Eight Diagram Palace gate, thought for a moment, summoned the Shura Blade, and cleared the area in front with a sweep of his hands.

Then he summoned the Ice Soul Divine Tripod, took out several hundred pieces of Divine World Iron for refinement, and laid them around the palace gates and surrounding ground.

Refining Divine World Iron and paving the ground with it, such extravagance was probably something only Huang Xiaolong could manage.

After finishing all this, Huang Xiaolong took out the spirit flowers, spirit grasses, and spirit trees from the Ice Soul Treasure and instructed his holy subordinates to plant them within the open areas inside the Nine Palaces Palace.

The Nameless Fire Tree from the Sumeru Divine Palace was also planted by Huang Xiaolong, not far from Nine Yang Holy Water.

This Nameless Fire Tree, which Huang Xiaolong had uncovered at the bottom of Cold Spring Valley outside the cave of the Ten Thousand Saints Venerable many years ago, had grown several tens of meters tall, its leaves and trunk glistening like fire.

By nightfall, it appeared as if the whole tree was ablaze with flames.

This Nameless Fire Tree, even Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi could not recognize it, was guessed to likely be a tree from the Divine World.

Soon, two days had passed.

During these two days, by day, Huang Xiaolong would accompany his family within the Nine Palaces Bagua Palace, offering guidance on their cultivation, and at night, he would ingest Third-Transformation Golden Pills for his cultivation.

What puzzled Huang Xiaolong was that, after two days had passed, Jiang Yu, the leader of the Dragon Group, had not come looking for trouble?

Could that guy have swallowed his pride?

On the third day, Yang Feiyue, along with several other elite disciples, came to visit Huang Xiaolong at Golden Dragon Peak.

Of course, the visit was in name, but in reality, it was to ingratiate themselves with Huang Xiaolong.

When Yang Feiyue and the six elite disciples saw the astonishing spiritual energy and the beautifully magnificent Nine Palaces Bagua Palace of Golden Dragon Peak, they were naturally shocked once again.

From the mouths of Yang Feiyue and the six elite disciples, Huang Xiaolong learned that Jiang Yu had entered the Life and Death Seclusion to cultivate the Ancient Cultivation Technique, Reincarnation Life and Death Technique.

“Reincarnation Life and Death Technique?” Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi frowned and said, “This technique is rather sinister, Youngster Huang, you should be a bit cautious.”

Huang Xiaolong was stunned, then nodded his head and took it to heart.

If it were something Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi felt the need to point out, this technique must wield considerable power.

Several hours later, Yang Feiyue and the others rose to their feet and respectfully took their leave.

Watching the backs of Yang Feiyue and the others as they departed, Huang Xiaolong’s eyes flickered.

According to the six of them, with Jiang Yu cultivating the Ancient Cultivation Technique Reincarnation Life and Death Technique, the next time he emerged, he might break through to the Seventh Stage of the Divine Domain.

If Jiang Yu did break through to the Seventh Stage of the Divine Domain, it could indeed pose some problems.

Of course, for Huang Xiaolong, it was just some trouble.

He now possessed strength comparable to the Late Stage Peak of the Divine Domain Sixth Stage and was somewhat distanced from the Seventh Stage.

But it wasn’t so easy for Jiang Yu to break through to the Seventh Stage of the Divine Domain.

The Seventh Stage of the Divine Domain was an important threshold within the realm, and out of ten thousand combatants at the Late Stage Peak of the Sixth Stage, it was very difficult for even one to break through to the Seventh Stage.

If Jiang Yu could really achieve a breakthrough to the Seventh Stage of the Divine Domain, it would still be something for a few years down the line.

In a few years’ time, Huang Xiaolong’s strength would be far beyond the Early Peak of the Fifth Stage of the Divine Domain.

“It’s also time to collect the wager.” After Yang Feiyue and the others left, Huang Xiaolong took out a bet slip, which was indeed the two hundred billion bet slip placed at the time of the pre-assessment of Inner Sect disciples at the Jiang, Wang, and Gudu families.

Two hundred billion, by his odds of more than a dozen to one, that was over three hundred billion!

“It’s been four days since the assessment of the Inner Sect disciples, Jiang Wuhuang and others must be getting anxious by now,” Huang Xiaolong sneered.

With this two hundred billion bet, high experts from the Jiang, Wang, and Gudu families were undoubtedly waiting for him to collect it.

Of course, if it were just any ordinary person, it really would have been impossible to actually collect over three hundred billion from the Jiang, Wang, and Gudu families.

However, he was Huang Xiaolong!

After telling his parents and others about it, Huang Xiaolong left Golden Dragon Peak and headed towards his master Feng Yang’s cultivation palace.

If his master went with him, would the Jiang, Wang, and Gudu families still dare to refuse?

Just as Huang Xiaolong was making his way to his master Feng Yang’s cultivation palace, within Xuanwu City, leaders like Jiang Wuhuang, Wang Dingyi, and Gudu Ye gathered in a palace, drinking Innate Spiritual Tea.

“It’s been four days already, haven’t that youngster who staked two hundred billion come to claim his bet?” Wang Dingyi placed down his tea cup and said in a deep voice.

Jiang Wuhuang laughed, “Brother Wang, you worry too much.

If that youngster really dares to come and ask for the bet, he might have the life to come here but not the life to return!”

Gudu Ye also laughed, “I think that youngster doesn’t dare to show up.

He knows well enough that life is more important than money.

Actually, I hope that youngster would appear; he actually bet two hundred billion on Huang Xiaolong winning.

Did he already know beforehand that Huang Xiaolong would win?

I want to capture him and interrogate him.”(To be continued.
