Chapter 1596: Chapter 1593: As Long as You Dare to Bet, I’ll Bet with You! (5 more)Qi Xuan smiled, "Junior Brother Dongfang, don’t listen to those martial artists’ nonsense. As the Junior Sword Master of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, I naturally wouldn’t interfere lightly in a martial arts competition."
"It’s a great taboo of the sect. I wouldn’t dare to commit it."
"If Junior Brother Dongfang doesn’t believe me, you can ask Elder Chen."
"Elder Chen is the guardian elder of Martial God Mountain, presiding over the martial arts competition here. He is the certifier, and you should believe his words, should you not, Junior Brother Dongfang?"
Qi Xuan spoke with a faint smile.
Upon hearing this, Elder Chen immediately stood up and said, "That’s right, Dongfang Bai..."
"Enough, I don’t want to hear that much nonsense." Lin Bai interrupted Elder Chen before he could finish speaking.
This displeased Elder Chen inside. After all, he was a Feng Yue Elder of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect. Even if you are the Junior Sword Master, you should show some respect. But Lin Bai casually cut off Elder Chen’s words, further infuriating him.
Since this Elder Chen, the guardian elder in charge of the rules here, required fairness and justice but had already privately protected Qi Xuan, he had lost his duty as an impartial elder of this place.
Why should Lin Bai show respect to someone who could not maintain their duty?
Moreover, Elder Chen was merely a practitioner with strength at the Second Level of the Yangshen Realm, probably much weaker than Ye Fenghuo.
Lin Bai had already killed Ye Fenghuo, so he had no fear of this Elder Chen!
Lin Bai spoke lightly, "Senior Brother Qi Xuan, you also said just now that if Nie Xiong is capable, he can come down and win back Li Chou’s sword. Does Senior Brother Qi Xuan’s word still stand?"
Qi Xuan said with a laugh, "Of course, it stands. Betting is common during competitions on Martial God Mountain. If Nie Xiong truly has the strength to defeat Meng Chunrui, then what’s the issue with returning Li Chou’s sword?"
Lin Bai said with a smile, "That’s good."
"Nie Xiong, go down to the arena and meet with Meng Chunrui from Qimen. Let’s see if the martial artists of Qimen are as extraordinary as the legends suggest."
Lin Bai said with an indifferent smile.
Nie Xiong was overjoyed and said, "Rest assured, Senior Brother Dongfang. When I go down to the arena, I’ll beat Meng Chunrui until he’s
"You!" Qi Xuan, provoked by Lin Bai’s words, suddenly displayed a fierce glint in his eyes and his gaze turned sharp. A sly smile crept onto his lips: "Fine, since Senior Brother Dongfang wants to see Nie Xiong and Meng Chunrui fight, why don’t we raise the stakes a bit?"
"What stakes?" Lin Bai asked curiously.
Qi Xuan replied with a cold smirk: "As long as Junior Brother Dongfang is willing to put up the Demonic Sword as stakes, then I will consent to let Meng Chunrui fight Nie Xiong."
"What do you say? Does Junior Brother Dongfang have the courage?"
Qi Xuan watched Lin Bai with amusement, turning the tables to put Lin Bai in a tight spot.
The Demonic Sword is a treasure covetously desired by all sword cultivators on the Lingnan Continent. Qi Xuan suggested this, fully expecting that Lin Bai wouldn’t stake the Demonic Sword.
If Lin Bai is unwilling to put up the Demonic Sword as stakes, then the fight would not proceed!
"Senior Brother Dongfang, don’t, don’t, don’t do it..." Li Chou, hearing this, immediately rushed to Lin Bai’s side, urging him. He didn’t want Lin Bai to gamble the Demonic Sword for his own weapon!
"Senior Brother Dongfang, think twice!" Over twenty sword cultivators of Fairy Cave Mountain hastened to dissuade him.
"Senior Brother Dongfang, don’t fall for someone else’s scheme." Luo Xuan also spoke up anxiously.
All of the over two hundred thousand spectator martial artists present were dumbfounded, their eyes wide: "Oh my, Qi Xuan and Dongfang Bai are upping the ante so much? Demanding the Demonic Sword as stakes just like that?"
Seeing the tension among the Seventy-two Sword Cultivators of Fairy Cave Mountain, Qi Xuan was even more convinced that Lin Bai would not comply, so he taunted with a sneering laugh: "What’s the matter? Doesn’t Junior Brother Dongfang dare? In that case, let’s forget about this fight."
"Heh." Lin Bai sneered contemptuously, and with a pat on his storage bag, an exceedingly sharp Treasure Sword, exuding a sword might that seemed to dominate all beings, resounded thunderously in the Martial Arts Competition Arena.
Shoo—
The Demonic Sword flew out of the storage bag and fiercely embedded itself in the ground.
"The Demonic Sword is here! Senior Brother Qi Xuan, I’ll take your bet!" Lin Bai said with a light laugh.
Qi Xuan’s face turned pale with shock, as he stared blankly at Lin Bai, completely stunned!
Qi Xuan had never dreamed that Lin Bai would truly put up the Demonic Sword as stakes!
Following that, Lin Bai said with a light chuckle: "Now that I’ve put up the Demonic Sword as stakes, shouldn’t Senior Brother Qi Xuan also put something up as well?"
Qi Xuan’s gaze was tyrannically fixed on the Demonic Sword, his heart pounding rapidly, with pure greed in his eyes.
Even Elder Chen, at this moment, wore an incredibly surprised expression, his gaze towards the Demonic Sword also filled with greed!
Qi Xuan’s mind raced, thinking that if he won, then the Demonic Sword would be his.
Qi Xuan then produced an object from his storage bag, it was a finely crafted Treasure Sword, and he announced: "This sword, known as ’Extremely Dazzling’, is my personal Sword, forged with..."
Before Qi Xuan could finish, Lin Bai interrupted him coldly: "I have no interest in your worthless junk."
To have his personal Sword dismissed as worthless junk by Lin Bai incensed Qi Xuan beyond belief, his expression chilling as he ground his teeth and said: "Then what do you want?"
Lin Bai’s gaze flashed sharply as he replied in a cold voice: "I want all Qimen martial artists who just now insulted the Seventy-two Sword Cultivators of Fairy Cave Mountain to each break off an arm!"
"And I also want both of Senior Brother Qi Xuan’s arms!"
"Qi Xuan, if you dare to wager, then let’s bet!"
