Chapter 979: Let’s Make a Bet

Luo Dajiang continued to ride the wave of his triumph. “Just one word; are you fighting or not?”

“I surrender!”

Ping Xiaoyi sheathed his sword in absolute chagrin, murmuring to himself, “Just you two wait, see if I’ll drug you fellows on the night of your marriage for trapping me with so much effort…”

Jiang Luoluo blushed. “Ping Xiaoyi, I’m not afraid of you. I’ll dare drink it if you dare to drug us! Your threat has intimidated me. From now on, I shall sabotage all I can, as long as it’s a lady you like - I’ll talk ill about you in front of all the future sisters-in-law of the Residence of Nine Supremes - you can remain single your whole life! Even if there were a girl so blind, I’ll stick around her to speak badly of you, all day long. We’re staying in the Residence of Nine Supremes anyway, I know about all your dark history. I wouldn’t be Jiang Luoluo if I didn’t jeopardize your reputation - do you think I dare not or can’t do it?!”

Stupefied, Ping Xiaoyi cried out, somewhat offended, “Have mercy, big sister! I’m only saying it for nothing…”

“I assume it to be true anyway!” Jiang Luoluo tipped her chin up high.

Ping Xiaoyi was still moaning in agony, “Where’s the justice in this? This - this… Luo Dajiang, how can you let your wife be?? Both husband and wife are bullying me together!”

Luo Dajiang was calm and collected. “We aren’t married yet. She’ll only be my wife after we get married. We’re only very good friends now. How can I check her? Besides, who do you think you are asking me to do what you say?”

Poor Ping Xiaoyi was utterly speechless and incredibly aggrieved.

‘You two are husband and wife, a pair of spouses when you work together to deceive people. When people come to hold you accountable, you’re separate entities, good friends you say, unrelated…’

“I really learn something new today…”

Bowing deeply with a palm cupped over his fist, Ping Xiaoyi begged for mercy incessantly. Jiang Luoluo ignored his effort, causing the former to be drenched in panicked sweat and fright.

As the first spouse member of the Residence of Nine Supremes, the chain reaction Jiang Luoluo could create was not one to be taken lightly. If she were determined to sabotage Ping Xiaoyi, it would truly be quite a challenge if the latter intended to find his other half…

“Boss…” Ping Xiaoyi turned to Yun Yang pleadingly. “Help me! They can’t string me around like this! My lifelong affair, my marriage, my ancestral heritage are all involved…”

Yun Yang held back his laughter and said with a straight face, “Ping Xiaoyi, what ulterior motive do you have? You want me to offend a woman? Have you not heard that one would rather offend the most skilled man in the world than to anger a woman? You actually wanted to trap me as well - how mean you are, how deceitful…”

Ping Xiaoyi was at a loss. “Then what should I do? Tell me what do I do…”

“Go beg for mercy… Whenever your sister-in-law forgives you, that’s when you look for a wife. Don’t even think about it for now. If your broken reputation were to spread out there… you’re a goner.”

Yun Yang spoke solemnly while the rest of the group were reveling in the poor man’s misery.

Ping Xiaoyi chased after Jiang Luoluo to apologize, but the latter ignored him, causing the man to bow and kneel; until later, Jiang Luoluo seemed to have relented with some sort of terms made.

When Ping Xiaoyi came back in relief, the first match of the Nine Supremes placing’s second bout was already completed - Shi Wuchen went against Wu Menghuan and had gained an overwhelming victory.

Although Shi Wuchen, Ren Qingkuang, and Wu Menghuan were all swordsmen, there was a difference in their achievement; Shi Wuchen was better versed in the art than Wu Menghuan, so it was not exactly a surprise that he had won.

As the battles progressed, it had finally come to the final match - Shi Wuchen versus Luo Dajiang!

In all honesty, Yun Yang was not too surprised that Shi Wuchen could last to the end but he was astonished that Luo Dajiang had managed to persevere to this stage as well.

Among the five men who won, their actual cultivation base and capability were similar. Perhaps Shi Wuchen was the most skillful but he was only a hair’s breadth better; it was not a staggering advantage. As the matches went on, the strategies and forms he used became key to his victories. It was not by luck that Shi Wuchen had won consecutively.

Nevertheless, Luo Dajiang seemed to have an unusual sense of resilience in comparison to Shi Wuchen. He rose up to the challenge when the going got tougher, never once showing signs of quitting. His courage grew as he battled, too, partially contributing to his wins. Consequentially, he advanced staget6%55 after stage, bagging victories and ultimately made it to the final battle!

Currently, the two of them were standing opposite each other. Even Dong Qitian was looking unprecedentedly serious, fully focusing his attention on the ring.

One was a master in wielding the sword while another was an expert in brandishing the saber. None of them was akin to the average practitioner of their art and weapon. Hence, it was definite that the battle that was bound to happen would be earth-shattering!

The reality was as expected.

Shi Wuchen was determined to secure his position as the Second Supreme of the Residence of Nine Supremes while Luo Dajiang was a dark horse who looked confident that he was going to clinch the placing.

Therefore, the aura that the pair exuded since the start of the match was already formidable and baffling.

Nervousness filled Jiang Luoluo who stood behind Yun Yang. Her pretty eyes were trained on the ring, her delicate fists were clenched, and she kept mumbling, “You must win! You must win!”

It tickled Yun Yang as he asked her, amused, “Shi Wuchen’s cultivation base is the best among the Demiurge-Flawed Ten. Luo Dajiang most probably can’t win. I’m afraid that you’ll have to be disappointed, Lady Jiang.”

Jiang Luoluo glared at him with a pout. “I thought that you’re the good one. I didn’t expect you to be this mean! Do you want to make a bet with me?”

“Bet? What’s the wager?” asked Yun Yang.

“If Luo Dajiang wins, you’ll give me a piece of Ethereal Amethyst. What do you think?”

“And if Shi Wuchen wins?”

Jiang Luoluo’s eyes darted around as she thought about it and answered, “You can punish me to marry your brother. You’re not losing anyway - I’m betting my entire self against a piece of your Ethereal Amethyst. You’re having the advantage here no matter how we see it!”

Yun Yang rubbed his nose chuckling humorlessly.

What a cunning lady - a card sharp would have to at least deal his card but she did not even have to put out anything!

“No way!” Yun Yang shook his head and replied, “That’s not how a bet works.”

“Why not this then - I won’t talk ill about you when you have a wife in the future. Otherwise, when you find a wife, I’ll tell her that you’re always teasing your brothers’ wives and I’m one of the victims - only one of them…”

Yun Yang was shocked, completely defeated.

It was then that he thoroughly understood the lady’s savageness and was beaten, surrendering with a bitter smile. “Alright, alright. As you wish, let’s make a bet!”

Jiang Luoluo cheered.
