Chapter 721 - 721 721 A Big Gamble Second Update

721: Chapter 721: A Big Gamble (Second Update) 721: Chapter 721: A Big Gamble (Second Update) Some people even felt as if their brains were not enough to process everything.

Shentu Lang, so casually spoke to Qian Qiuxue, yet, Qian Qiuxue didn’t seem angry at all.

Could it be that Qian Qiuxue really took a shine to Shentu Lang?

Xuanxiao’s mouth twitched fiercely at the corners.

Deep inside, he even felt a pang of envy towards Shentu Lang.

How come such good fortune never fell upon him?

After all, wasn’t Qian Qiuxue also the woman of his dreams?

But Qian Qiuxue had never shown any interest in him.

If he weren’t the Young Master of Xuan Yue, Qian Qiuxue probably wouldn’t even spare him a single glance.

How could there be such a huge difference between people?

“Why?

What makes Shentu Lang better than me?”

Xuanxiao was struggling within.

“Oh look, isn’t this the Young Clan Leader of the Shentu Family?

Qian Qiuxue, you sure have good taste.”

At this moment, Yue Qingcheng swayed over and positioned herself in front of Long Yan.

Secretively, she was also sizing up Long Yan.

She didn’t believe that Qian Qiuxue would fall for someone useless like Shentu Lang.

There must be something about him she hadn’t noticed yet.

However, even after observing him for a while, she found nothing.

A hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

However, her woman’s intuition told her that Shentu Lang was definitely not as simple as he seemed.

“Beauty, care to join me for a drink?”

Long Yan slightly lifted his head, his gaze falling on Yue Qingcheng.

“No problem, it would be my honor to share a drink with the Young Clan Leader.”

Yue Qingcheng’s charming voice echoed out.

She took a seat right next to Long Yan and cast a flirtatious glance at him, alluring him completely.

“This enchantress.”

Long Yan felt a sense of dread, the hairs on the back of his neck nearly standing on end.

Out of the Four Great Beauties of the Emperor Domain, Yue Qingcheng was the most difficult to handle.

If he weren’t currently under the guise of Shentu Lang, he wouldn’t dare to mess with this enchantress.

“Drink up, beauty.”

Long Yan raised his drinking cup and moved closer to Yue Qingcheng.

“Shentu Lang, you shameless…”

At this moment, Xuanxiao, unable to suppress his feelings any longer, bellowed at Long Yan.

Shentu Lang was already flirting with Qian Qiuxue, and now he was trying to take advantage of Yue Qingcheng too.

Both women were among the Four Great Beauties of the Emperor Domain.

What kind of luck was Shentu Lang carrying?

Xuanxiao’s heart was screaming out, it’s so unfair!

“Xuanxiao, what do you want?

Can’t you see I’m busy?”

Long Yan only lifted his head slightly, his gaze fell on Xuanxiao and a touch of indifference rose in his eyes.

“Shentu Lang, do you even dare to look at yourself?

Do you really think that you belong here?”

Xuanxiao said through gritted teeth, “Everyone here is an outstanding genius.

You, a useless man daring to come here, don’t you feel ashamed?

We’re all embarrassed for you.”

His words were full of bitterness.

Clearly, he was envious of Long Yan.

Others also looked disdainfully at Long Yan, their thoughts were similar to Xuanxiao’s.

Long Yan was distasteful, like a rat turd.

“Beauty, wait a moment.

Let me handle this troublemaker, then I’ll continue drinking with you.”

Long Yan gave Yue Qingcheng a faint smile, then stood up.

His gaze fell on Xuanxiao, but the smile on his face didn’t fade.

“Xuanxiao, if you can be here, I certainly have more qualifications than you.”

Long Yan spoke, his tone unaffected.

“What a joke!”

Xuanxiao laughed as if he had just heard the funniest joke in the world.

“Shentu Lang, I’ll give you a chance.

If you can defeat me, I’ll admit you’re qualified to be here.

If you can’t, then get out immediately.”

Publicly challenging Long Yan, it seemed Xuanxiao was looking to embarrass Long Yan in front of everyone.

Upon hearing this, the crowd’s faces became more animated, everyone knew that Long Yan was no match for Xuanxiao.

And Xuanxiao would definitely not show any mercy.

“Xuanxiao, you son of a stepmother, what qualification do you have to make me agree?”

Long Yan’s tone was full of mockery.

If he agreed just like that, wouldn’t that be too cheap?

“You…”

Xuanxiao was a bit panicked, “What do you want?”

His provocations clearly had no effect on Long Yan.

“Xuanxiao, let’s settle all our disputes today, once and for all.

I’ll give you one opportunity, if we play, we play big.”

Long Yan gave a barely noticeable sinister smile, and then he took out a Storage Ring.

“Inside this Storage Ring are the Spirit Stones and Spiritual Veins prepared by the Shentu Family for this auction.

I’ll use this as my bet.

If you can match this bet, then I’ll accept your challenge.”

If Xuanxiao was willing to play, he would play until Xuanxiao cried.

The words fell from Long Yan’s mouth, not only was Xuanxiao stunned but the rest also halted.

The bet Long Yan offered was massive.

Each force had arrived at the auction with substantial resources.

It seemed as if Long Yan was staking his all on this.

Had he lost his mind?

“This guy really can’t resist trying to get something for nothing, even at a time like this.”

Qian Qiuxue remembered Long Yan and gave a bitter smile.

Clearly, Long Yan was trying to trick Xuanxiao.

With Long Yan’s ability, even ten Xuanxiaos were not his match.

“Saintess, you can check it out for yourself!”

Long Yan tossed the Storage Ring to Qian Qiuxue.

“The storage ring contains one billion high-quality Spirit Stones and forty high-grade Spiritual Veins,” Qian Qiuxue said in a calm tone.

“One billion?

Forty?”

Long Yan paused for a moment then immediately understood Qian Qiuxue’s intention.

“This little girl, she sure knows how to kill without shedding any blood.”

The Storage Ring only contained five hundred million high-quality Spirit Stones and twenty-nine high-grade Spiritual Veins, yet Qian Qiuxue had claimed it held a billion high-quality Spirit Stones and forty high-grade Spiritual Veins.

Wasn’t she just trying to make Xuanxiao fall into a trap?

However, this perfectly met Long Yan’s intentions.

Even if Qian Qiuxue had said there were one hundred high-grade Spiritual Veins, he wouldn’t object.

Hearing the words, everyone was taken aback.

They didn’t expect the Shentu Family to prepare so many Spirit Stones and Spiritual Veins for the auction.

It seemed as though this auction would be fiercely competitive.

At this moment, Xuanxiao’s expression turned somewhat grim, as though he were trapped.

The Xuanyue Door had also prepared exactly one billion high-quality Spirit Stones and forty high-grade Spiritual Veins for the auction.

To put forth such a bet would severely injure the Xuanyue Door.

It was fine if he lost, but the Xuanyue Door couldn’t afford to lose.

He didn’t dare take the risk, despite having full confidence in himself.

“What’s the matter, Xuanxiao, are you afraid?”

Long Yan had a playful smile on his face.

He was clearly using provocation.

“Weren’t you awfully arrogant a moment ago?

If you can’t even muster this much courage, what right does a bastard son of a stepmother like you have to yell at me?

Nothing but garbage!”

Long Yan snorted lightly, his gaze filled with contempt.

“You…”

Xuanxiao’s chest heaved up and down, looking like he was about to explode out of anger.
