Translator: 549690339
Yang Zhen’s words resonated loudly, yet evoked the feeling of hasty defeat in anyone who heard them. This impulsive behavior led the vast majority of those present to shake their heads secretly.
“The youngster is said to have impressive talent, he has even comprehended the Sky Crossing Void of Changyue Tower, but his temperant is simply too poor. How regrettable that he fell so easily for such an obvious provocation!” the Great Clan Elder shook his head, looking at Yang Zhen with a sense of regret.
The Three Clan Elders snorted coldly, shooting a glance at Yang Zhen, saying,”There are countless geniuses in Nether State. It’s the first ti I’ve seen one who is so reckless and does not value himself just because he has a little talent.”
Princess Changfeng and others were also sowhat surprised looking at Yang Zhen. They couldn’t understand why he acted so impulsively, an expression of slight contempt inevitably appearing on their faces.
In the entire eting hall, nearly everyone was disappointed with Yang Zhen’s actions. Only Hua Youyue and dicine Elder looked at each other and saw the oddity in each other’s eyes.
“Here it cos, this expression, this kind of montum. Even though I can’t figure out why Yang Zhen would propose such an absurd bet; I have a feeling that Xiao Ji is in for so bad luck.”
dicine Elder murmured to himself, full of doubt in his eyes.
Hua Youyue was of the sa mind, she was about to speak out, when suddenly Xiao Ji broke into a hearty laugh. He looked at Yang Zhen with an air of arrogance, and said,”I didn’t expect Brother Yang to be so passionate. It would seem sowhat pretentious if I don’t accept your bet, fine!”
Xiao Ji abruptly said,”As Brother Yang wishes, the loser will leave all his possessions behind and must call the other person ‘Grandpa’!”
Yang Zhen nodded and extended his hand, saying, “Please.”
Xiao Ji snorted coldly, opened a box in front of him, took out a jade vial, and declared loudly,”The bottle contains Heaven Spring Dew, one drop is enough to consolidate essence and cultivate vitality. Using five drops when breaking through the cultivation barrier can achieve twice the result with half the effort. Moreover, for won its consumption can result in maintaining youthful beauty!”
Buzz!
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the eting hall was astounded, especially the Three Clan Elders. Their bodies trembled violently and they exclaid excitedly,”Heaven Spring Dew, I didn’t expect Xiao Ji could actually find it! And it’s such a small bottle. It’s truly worth a fortune!” “Heaven Spring Dew, Xiao Ji really put all his money into this. This…a single drop can be sold for over ten thousand crystals. Besides the legendary Colorful Cloud Dew, nothing could possibly compare to Heaven Spring Dew.” “Unexpectedly, Xiao Ji imdiately pulled out such a treasure. Even Princess Changfeng is tempted by the Heaven Spring Dew. Yang Zhen is practically dood!”
“Yang Zhen never stood a chance in the first place!”
Everyone was engaged in discussion, covetously eyeing the thumb-sized bottle of Heaven Spring Dew in Xiao Ji’s hand.
At this mont, Xiao Ji was full of arrogance. He suddenly put away the Heaven Spring Dew, faced Yang Zhen and said, “Your turn, Brother Yang.” Whoosh!
Everyone’s mocking gaze fell on Yang Zhen. This small bottle of Heaven Spring Dew alone was already worth a fortune. There was no chance that Yang Zhen, a disciple from a minor sect with a bit of luck, could match that; he probably wouldn’t be able co up with sothing of equal value in his entire lifeti.
Hua Youyue’s face darkened, dicine Elder furrowed his eyebrows and murmured,”This brat is cruel, already using Heaven Spring Dew from the get-go. We only have five drops left in all of Changyue Tower, and we paid a huge price for them. Young Yang Zhen is in danger.”
Yang Zhen’s eyes widened in surprise, he exclaid,”Heaven Spring Dew! Despite my limited abilities, I have heard of such a precious treasure. I cannot match that.”
A aningful smile appeared on Xiao Ji’s face, he said,”You can skip the flattery, please present your contribution, Brother Yang!”
Yang Zhen voiced his surprise, “When did you hear flattering you?”
“Hmm?” Xiao Ji’s look of confusion flashed past.
Yang Zhen showed a disdainful look, casually pulled out a ratty pot the size of his head from his storage ring. It seed very old, like an antique, yet gave off a srizing seven-colored glow.
After taking it out, Yang Zhen scoffed, “You seem to have misunderstood . I ant that I cannot present such a piece of junk. Such shaless things also dare to show up. Can’t you, Dajiang Country, offer anything better? A straight person does not speak in riddles, I couldn’t even be bothered to use this Heaven Spring Dew as mouthwash usually!”
Saying this, Yang Zhen took a swig from the broken pot filled with the seven-colored liquid, tilted his head back and made a ‘gurgling’ sound as if gargling. Then under everyone’s stare, he spit out a stream of water into the air. The water emitted an enchanting, seven-colored glow, similar to a rainbow after the rain.
Seeing Yang Zhen behaving this rudely, the Three Clan Elders slapped the table and scolded, “Yang Zhen, stop your wild….”
The Three Clan Elder’s words were cut off by a startled howl echoing in the council chamber. A figure darted out, holding a jade bottle, diving towards the stream of seven-colored water spat out from Yang Zhen, catching it accurately without wasting a single drop.
Thud!
The figure finally fell to the ground, making a dull noise. Yet there was no sign of pain on his face as he clutched the jade bottle and giggled inanely, even caressing it against his face repeatedly, as if he were gently touching his dear wife’s face.
“dic…dicine Elder?”
A group of people stared blankly at dicine Elder, not understanding what on earth this outburst was all about.
Hua Youyue stared in disbelief at the sudden spectacle, opening her mouth in shock and surprise.
Yang Zhen was taken aback, swiftly dodged away. He looked at dicine Elder with a peculiar gaze and said,”I say, old man, are you acting like a hillbilly?” Hillbilly?
Hearing this nickna, everyone was shocked, many people’s faces turned furious, fixing their gaze on Yang Zhen.
Although dicine Elder was just a guest of Changyue Tower, he was one of the most renowned alchemists in Fla City, and enjoyed a high status. Even Hua Jingshan had to call him ‘dicine Elder’.
Now that dicine Elder was called a ‘hillbilly’ by Yang Zhen, many people were outraged. If it weren’t for the lack of decorum, they’d have already reprimanded him.
However, at this mont, dicine Elder sprung up from the ground and pointed at Yang Zhen’s nose, swearing loudly, “You little rascal, do you want to infuriate to death? Once Colorful Cloud Dew hits the ground, it loses all of its effects. Do you have any idea of its value?”
Before Yang Zhen could respond, dicine Elder pointed furiously at the Heaven Spring Dew in Xiao Ji’s hands, and yelled,”Compared to that petty stuff, your mouthful could be exchanged for fifty of his bottles and he would still be at a significant advantage!”
Boom!
It exploded, the whole eting hall exploded!
Everyone scread out in shock, looking at dicine Elder with disbelief.
“Colorful Cloud Dew, dicine Elder…you…you said, that is Colorful Cloud Dew?” Hua Jingshan incredulously asked dicine Elder.
“Is there any doubt?” dicine Elder glanced at Hua Jingshan dismissively.
Hua Youyue instantly covered her mouth, her eyes shining with shock.
“Is it really Colorful Cloud Dew?”
“Nonsense, would dicine Elder lie?”
“He…he…Yang Zhen…he actually used Colorful Cloud Dew to gargle?”
“This son of a bitch, that’s a complete waste. No, he…my God, using Colorful Cloud Dew to gargle, this…”
Xiao Ji turned pale, staggered backward three steps, and muttered in disbelief, “No, how is this possible? I have Heaven Spring Dew, you just happened to have Colorful Cloud Dew? It’s coincidence, it must be your good luck.. Again!”
