Chapter 524 Bet
When they returned to Taolin Town, just after noon, Venerable Qianhe had already completed the shaman dance.
At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on top of the altar to rest, while several of his attendants were setting up an array around the haunted house.
After the formation was completed, Venerable Qianhe stood up again, holding a compass in one hand and a sword in the other, and stabbed here and slashed there in the haunted house.
Faint ghost cries could be heard from the haunted house from time to time, and black gas would emerge from above the house from time to time.
Although Venerable Qianhe's attendant was always keeping an eye on Venerable Qianhe, ready to provide help at any time, he also diverted some of his attention in case Lu Lingyou and others suddenly appeared to steal his skills, so as soon as Lu Lingyou appeared, he rushed over.
"Oh, you slept for most of the day and came here just after you woke up." It is difficult for you to achieve great things if you are so lazy while trying to steal skills.
Lu Lingyou was equally rude, "Hey, you guys are playing hide-and-seek. Half a day has passed, and you are still playing hide-and-seek with the evil spirit."
Even though the black air was sizzling above the house, the true body of the red-clothed evil spirit had not yet appeared. When the true body was forced out for a face-to-face battle, it was estimated that there would be another fight, which would last until tomorrow.
"You, you know nothing." Attendant No. 1 said angrily, "You little brat who has never seen the world. The venerable is now dealing with a nearly fifth-level evil spirit. You are a yellow-haired girl who has not even dealt with a first-level evil spirit. Do you know how difficult it is to deal with these evil spirits in this world?"
Lu Lingyou said nonchalantly, "I know, they're easy to deal with." They're similar to the water ghosts in the dark river, one can kill them with one sword.
However, her words were simply ignored by the other party.
Attendant No. 2 immediately said, "She is just talking without any hesitation. Just wait and see. When she goes to deal with that Level 1 evil spirit, it may take her half a month or ten days to solve it. When that happens, I will see how you still have the nerve to speak so arrogantly."
Lu Lingyou suspected that there was something wrong with the two men's ears. She pointed at herself and said seriously, "I told you, it was easy. I killed a mere first-level evil spirit."
The two attendants immediately sneered, "Ha. Just keep bragging."
"If you can really kill that evil spirit in half a day, I will take your surname."
The little fat man was listening on the side and wanted to say something but stopped himself. Although he didn't want to, his mind couldn't help but imagine what the other person's expression would be if he knew that this girl had really gotten rid of the evil spirit.
He subconsciously wanted to remind him, but when he saw the young man looking at him as if he were trash, the words that were about to come out of his mouth were stuck for some reason.
"Han Ze, don't be rude." Venerable Qianhe, holding a long sword and a compass, appeared at the door.
"What do I usually tell you? Don't judge people by their appearance, and don't bully young people because they are poor." Venerable Qianhe's voice was kind and tolerant, but Su Jiu frowned, thinking that this guy definitely had no good intentions.
Sure enough, the next second, he continued, "Since you were able to go to Black Wind Valley and get rid of the evil spirit in less than half a day, you must be quite capable. If you think I'm too slow, why not ask you to do it, so that the people of Taolin Town can get rid of the evil spirit sooner."
At this moment, even Zhao Yin frowned. He knew that the junior sister had some trump cards up her sleeve. However, no matter in the Dark River or in the Black Wind Valley, it was the junior sister who fought against the evil spirits alone. He could not accurately judge the level and ability of the evil spirits. He didn't know whether the junior sister's ghost fire and black sword could still deal with the fourth-level evil spirit in front of him.
And although this venerable one was being polite, he actually did not believe what the junior sister said and deliberately wanted to embarrass her in public.
"No." The girl's clear voice came.
Venerable Qianhe smiled as if to predict it, and was about to say a few more words to show that he would not bother with a young girl who had just started out.
Then the girl in blue said, "This is your mission. You want me to work for you for free? That's a dream."
"..."
Venerable Qianhe couldn't help but stiffen the corners of his mouth.
His attendant was so angry that he was fuming.
"You little bastard, you really think you are someone important. The Venerable said this because he thinks highly of you, but you are so shameless."
"Not only that, I'm afraid he doesn't dare at all. He felt great bragging before, but now he's scared and is just looking for an excuse." Another attendant said sarcastically.
"You really don't understand what people are saying." Su Xian didn't tolerate them at all. "My junior sister said that the work is not in vain. Are you deaf or brain damaged?"
"Come on, I bet you can't solve this level 4 evil spirit in a month. But I still say that if you can really solve it, I will take your surname."
"I don't plan to adopt a godson for the time being. Let me change the bet." Lu Lingyou said lazily.
"..."
Not to mention Han Ze was shocked, even Venerable Qianhe narrowed his eyes, "Little girl, do you want to make a bet with me?"
At this time, the head of the pavilion also stepped forward and said, "Young lady, you'd better not make trouble here. If you delay the exorcism of the Venerable, all the people in Taolin Town will not let you go."
Lu Lingyou directly skipped over him and said to Venerable Qianhe, "Venerable Qianhe, do you dare to bet with me?"
Venerable Qianhe really laughed this time.
But the smile did not reach his eyes. "Little girl, I have already given you face and opportunity. Since you insist on doing this, I can only accompany you. How about this, as long as you can kill this fourth-level evil spirit before me, I will agree to one of your requests."
Lu Lingyou's eyes lit up, "You should have a very high status in your family or sect, so if I win, how about giving me all the spiritual veins, businesses, and natural treasures of your sect?"
"......" Venerable Qianhe was almost laughing out of anger.
Han Ze's eyes widened, and there was a cold knife in his eyes.
"presumptuous."
“It’s just outrageous.”
It’s not that he thinks this girl can surpass the Venerable, but daring to make such a request to the Venerable is simply stepping on the Venerable’s face.
Besides, she was just an unknown person who came out of nowhere. Why did she ask the Venerable to make such a bet with her?
Lu Lingyou curled her lips and said, "Or, you can give me ten or eight god-level magic weapons."
"You are simply stubborn." Huo Xun, the second attendant, clenched his fists. "If you want to die, just tell me. I don't mind giving you a ride."
"This won't work, and that won't work. What exactly do you want?" Lu Lingyou spread his hands.
"So what Venerable Qianhe said is like fart." Su Xian unconsciously added fuel to the fire.
Venerable Qianhe smiled coldly. Before he could say anything, Lu Lingyou waved his hand generously, "Forget it. I won't bully an old man. If I win, you can give me 100,000 high-grade spirit stones."
Han Ze and Huo Xun couldn't help but gasp. One hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones was not a small amount even in Tianwai Tian. How could this little girl who came from some remote mountain village dare to do that?
Still using this understated tone.
Venerable Qianhe's eyes were a little cold, "Okay, but what if you lose?"
"I'll give you 100,000 too." Isn't that fair?
"Heh." Han Ze sneered.
"Or should I add a little more? Spirit stones, magic tools, and those rare treasures I have stored, I'll give you some of them, okay?" By the way, I gave a few of them a look that said I was very generous.
Respect the old and love the young. She doesn't mind suffering a little loss.
