Invincible Over the World
Chapter 780 - 780 777 Lu Cong

780: Chapter 777: Lu Cong 780: Chapter 777: Lu Cong However, when Huang Xiaolong heard that the Qi Family Ancestor demanded twenty thousand Divine-grade High-level Divine Stones as a betrothal gift from Brother Liu Yun before agreeing to break off the engagement, his face took on a bizarre expression.

You should know, what he now least lacked was Divine-grade high-level Divine Stones.

“Did the Qi Family Ancestor really say that?” Huang Xiaolong laughed, his laughter causing Liu Yun to be somewhat baffled.

Seeing Huang Xiaolong’s smile, Liu Yun couldn’t help but say, “I know you’ve obtained the Ice Soul Treasure and the Treasure of Mystical Secrets, but, twenty thousand Divine-grade high-level Divine Stones is not a small amount.”

In Liu Yun’s mind, even the Ice Soul Treasure and the Treasure of Mystical Secrets couldn’t possibly contain twenty thousand Divine-grade high-level Divine Stones.

He feared that even if he sold all the Spiritual Medicine, Divine Pills, and Divine Iron from the Ice Soul Treasure and the Treasure of Mystical Secrets, it would be difficult to amass two trillion two hundred billion!

Of course, Liu Yun couldn’t bring himself to ask, nor did he think it polite to ask Huang Xiaolong, his junior brother, even though they were close—after all, that was two trillion two hundred billion!

Not merely one hundred billion two hundred million.

Just as Liu Yun’s voice fell, Huang Xiaolong waved both hands backward, and the Great Hall shook, as countless Divine Stones rolled out from the void.

Soon, the entire Great Hall in front of them was filled.

For a moment, the Spiritual Energy in the entire hall surged astonishingly.

Liu Yun stared blankly at the mountain of Divine Stones in front of him for a long time without reacting; once he did, his eyes gleamed with surprise and disbelief, and he stood up excitedly and tremblingly.

He walked up to the mountain of Divine Stones, touched it, then picked up one, muttering tremblingly, “Divine, Divine-grade high-level Divine Stones, this, this is real, really!”

Huang Xiaolong laughed and said, “Of course it’s real, could there possibly be fake Divine-grade high-level Divine Stones?”

Liu Yun took a deep breath, turned his head to look at Huang Xiaolong, and said, “Junior brother, this!”

Huang Xiaolong shook his hand and said, “Brother, I know what you want to say.

Consider these twenty thousand Divine-grade high-level Divine Stones a gift from me for your and Third Sister’s engagement, so you must accept them!”

Liu Yun hesitated, “This!”

Twenty thousand Divine-grade high-level Divine Stones, such a gift was indeed too precious!

Huang Xiaolong laughed and said, “What I now least lack is Divine-grade high-level Divine Stones, so you don’t need to feel embarrassed.

On the day of your and Third Sister’s wedding, I will send another twenty thousand Divine-grade high-level Divine Stones as a gift.”

Liu Yun’s expression shook again, shocked as he looked at Huang Xiaolong.

Another twenty thousand Divine-grade high-level Divine Stones!

For a time, his mind was somewhat dizzy.

After a long while, Liu Yun finally came back to his senses; once he did, he naturally hugged Huang Xiaolong, overflowing with gratitude.

The troubling issue of the twenty thousand Divine-grade high-level Divine Stones had finally been resolved, and Liu Yun, like a few-year-old child, both shouted for joy and cried.

Huang Xiaolong was speechless.

However, he could understand his brother’s mood.

What relieved Huang Xiaolong was that Brother Liu Yun did not ask him how he had so many Divine-grade high-level Divine Stones.

After a while, Huang Xiaolong left Brother Liu Yun’s palace, while Liu Yun ran excitedly and unusually happy toward Third Sister Qi Wen’s palace, seemingly eager to share the good news.

Huang Xiaolong watched Brother Liu Yun’s figure, smiled, and then strolled out of the palace, wandering around.

While wandering, he indeed encountered many disciples from major families who had traveled from the Four Great Star Rivers.

These Family Disciples formed groups of two or three, walking together, talking and laughing.

“I heard that among the disciples on the Ascending God List this time, there were over a dozen, even Lu Cong, ranked third on the list, has arrived!”

“What?!

Lu Cong is here too?!

These top ten disciples of the Ascending God List, although not at the Divine Level, each is a monstrous talent comparable to the Divine Level.

If they are here, then we definitely have no chance.”

“It’s said that during the competition, even if one cannot claim first place, all participating disciples will receive a Purple Crystal Water Nourishing God Pill bestowed by the Jade Pool Saint Mother!

Moreover, depending on the strength, the number of Purple Crystal Heart Quenching Divine Pills awarded will vary.”

“Just why isn’t Wan Long, who is first on the Ascending God List, here this time!

Also, I heard that Huang Xiaolong has come too!”

“Huang Xiaolong?

With his Divine Domain Eighth Stage strength, what excitement can he bring?

His talent might be monstrous, but I heard that the first criterion for Jade Pool Saint Mother’s disciple selection is at least being a Late Stage Divine Domain Tenth Stage powerhouse.”

As several disciples passed by Huang Xiaolong, they clearly didn’t recognize him and went on their way.

Huang Xiaolong listened to their discussion and was intrigued.

Ascending God List third-ranking, Lu Cong?

He couldn’t help but remember the tall and thin youth from Azure Dragon Academy who had used the Ten Thousand Words True Mantra to break the prohibition of the Ice Soul Treasure deep in the Ice Soul Continent years ago.

He recalled that the tall and thin youth was also named Lu Cong.

It seemed that the tall and thin youth he had encountered on the Ice Soul Continent indeed was the same Lu Cong from the Ascending God List.

Huang Xiaolong listened to these discussions but didn’t take them to heart.

Just as Huang Xiaolong was about to turn back to his residence, suddenly, five disciples in Azure Dragon Academy brocade robes approached from the front.

The person at the front was none other than the tall and thin youth, Lu Cong!

Lu Cong, seeing Huang Xiaolong, expressed surprise and blurted out, “Huang Xiaolong!” clearly not expecting to encounter Huang Xiaolong here.

The other four Azure Dragon Academy disciples, hearing the name Huang Xiaolong, glared at him with animosity, almost reflexively surrounding him.

However, Lu Cong reprimanded, “What are you trying to do?

This is Jade Pool Mountain!”

The four Azure Dragon Academy disciples then sullenly retreated behind Lu Cong.

Lu Cong eyed Huang Xiaolong and scoffed coldly, “Huang Xiaolong, I didn’t expect you to come and participate in the Jade Pool Saint Mother’s centenary celebration.

But with your current strength, to compete for the position of Jade Pool Saint Mother’s Cloth Bowl Disciple, aren’t you being overambitious?”

Back then, he and his companions had gone through hardships to break the outer prohibition of the Ice Soul Treasure, but unexpectedly, it ended up in vain, and Huang Xiaolong managed to obtain the Ice Soul Treasure instead.

Because of this, he harbored significant resentment towards Huang Xiaolong.

Huang Xiaolong, upon hearing this, simply responded with a calm expression, “Do you think you can win first place on the centenary platform?”

Lu Cong laughed heartily, “He Feifan has made a breakthrough to Divine Level and didn’t come, and neither did Wan Long.

This first place, I am determined to win.

Of course, you can also challenge me then, but that will depend on whether you have the strength.” Having said that, he led the four disciples from the Azure Dragon Academy and left.

“Brother Lu, are we just letting this kid off?” one of them asked unwillingly.

Lu Cong laughed, “Don’t worry, on the day of the platform, even if this kid doesn’t dare to challenge me, I will personally make him come up to the platform to fight me.

I will defeat him in front of all powerhouse attendees, and then make him roll off the platform!”

Lu Cong and his group didn’t keep their voices down intentionally, so every word clearly reached Huang Xiaolong’s ears.

Huang Xiaolong watched their retreating figures, sneered coldly, and thought to himself, overambitious?

Since that’s the case, then on the centenary platform in a few days, he would let Lu Cong see who was truly overambitious, who would defeat whom.

However, Lu Cong naturally wouldn’t have a chance to roll down from the platform.

Because he would die on the platform!
