Chapter 455 I Am Such a Person
You Daxiao cleared his throat and was thinking about how to induce the cultivators of demon clan to bet. After all, what Li Ye was facing now was a cultivator in the Sky Immortal Realm. If he still started a gambling ga, in others’ minds, it was not reasonable and he was courting death.
But before he could co up with a solution, the demon python spoke. He looked at You Daxiao and said coldly, “You started a gambling before. Why didn’t you start one this ti? You won so many magic treasures from us. Do you want to hide them and not take them out? Prince An is a noble grand prince. Is he such a an person? Or does Prince An think that he would not win?”
“Nonsense! I didn’t an to do that! I am a grand prince of the royal family. How can I be a an person?” Li Ye was angry and said in a hurry. But his montum didn’t last for three seconds. He then beca weak and said in a low voice, “How, how could I lose?”
The demon python didn’t speak, and just squinted at You Daxiao.
You Daxiao sighed and said, “Okay, let’s start a gambling...”
“I bet a magic treasure with low class-ranking on Wu Liuqi!”
“I bet two magic treasures with low class-ranking on Wu Liuqi!”
“I support Wu Liuqi. I bet a magic treasure of middle class-ranking!”
“Alas, could you lend a magic treasure? I want to bet, so that I can win back my lost magic treasure!”
“May I not lend you?”
“We’ve been brothers for many years, but you said no to at this ti?”
“Well, here you are!”
Looking at the magic treasures piled up in front of him again, You Daxiao showed an expressionless face, but smiled in his mind.
There were more bets than that they bet on Li Ye and Childe Python before. It seed that all demons thought that Li Ye, a cultivator in the Ground Immortal Realm, would lose to Wu Liuqi, a cultivator in the Sky Immortal Realm. In addition to those demons who had lost their magic treasures and wanted to get them back, many demons who felt that they could take advantage of the opportunity and make a profit also bet.
In front of interests, no one could really be unmoved. It was just a matter of whether the inco was large enough and the risk was small enough.
You Daxiao looked at these active cultivators of demon clan and sympathized with them. “Brother Li said clearly that he didn’t use all his strength. Why don’t you believe it? Why do you still challenge him? Do you think he’s doing sothing beyond his ans? But in fact, he is not!”
You Daxiao looked at the blushed Li Ye, who was fighting against Wu Liuqi in the wrist wrestling ga, and sighed in his mind. “Brother Li’s acting skill is really good. Why didn’t I find that he has such a talent?”
If Li Ye knew his idea, he would say, “Life was like a play, and all depended on acting.”
“On our planet, everybody can act. Do students need to act when they cheat in exams? Does the wife need to act when she says she’s going to do her hair, but actually to have a love affair stealthily? Do the employees need to pretend to greet kindly when they et their boss?”
“People can’t live without acting.”
“For the mont, without acting, how can we get so many magic treasures?”
Steward Little Bear didn’t participate in the gambling. As a smart steward, he clearly knew that money couldn’t be spent indiscriminately. In addition to that, he also sent people to tell the demon bear what was happening here. As a competent steward, he must always report to the master all things that might beco serious.
In fact, the demon bear didn’t leave the City Lord’s Mansion. He was in the cave of the big mountain in the mansion, but he didn’t cultivate there, because he was not in the mood. He was eating at and drinking wine. When one was in a bad mood, eating and drinking were good ways to adjust no matter he was a man or a demon.
When the demon bear saw the little demon sent by the Steward Little Bear and knew what was happening in Li Ye’s courtyard, the wine bottle in his hand fell to the ground.
He suddenly stood up and stared at the little demon standing in the cave, saying, “Do you an that Wu Liuqi is in the wrist wrestling ga with Prince An, and other demons have bet more than 100 magic treasures on them?”
“Yes!” The little demon was confused about the response of the demon bear. “Is the City Lord angry about missing such a good chance to win back the magic treasures?”
They all heard that the demon bear had been swindled out of all his magic treasures by Li Ye.
The little demon hurriedly continued, “It is indeed so. Although Prince An won the demon sheep and Childe Python before, he did it with great difficulty. This ti, it is Wu Liuqi who is going to fight with Prince An. He will win and we will get back all the magic treasures... Would you like to take part in the gambling, City Lord?”
“Do you think I’m a fool?” The demon bear sneered and asked.
The little demon didn’t know what the demon bear ant, face full of puzzlent.
“This is a great chance to win back the magic treasures. How could it be stupid?”
The demon bear sat back on the throne and his mood was mixed. Finally, he sighed and said, “Prince An... is really cunning!”
He had seen Li Ye fight with the demon tiger of Star Pavilion, so he knew Li Ye’s real strength. He could defeat the cultivator in the Real Immortal Realm. Wu Liuqi was good, but he was only in the Sky Immortal Realm after all. How could he defeat Li Ye?
He knew about it, but the demons in the City Lord’s Mansion didn’t know.
Li Ye had been shining with exploits in the mortal world and often killed people whose level was higher than his. But those only happened in the mortal world. In the demon clan, only seven sages were concerned about and knew these things. These little demons had neither the ans nor the ti to know these situations.
Before the demon bear colluded with the demon tiger to assassinate Li Ye, all he knew was that Li Ye’s combat power exceeded his cultivation realm a lot. He didn’t know exactly how strong Li Ye was. That was what the Macaque King told him. In fact, the Macaque King also had not ever seen Li Ye, nor had he seen Li Ye fight in the mortal world, nor could he know the specific combat power of Li Ye.
The demon bear couldn’t tell the demons in the City Lord’s Mansion that Li Ye could defeat the cultivators in the Real Immortal Realm. If he told them, didn’t it an to admit that he was there when Li Ye was fighting with the demon tiger?
But if he didn’t say, he was afraid that most of the magic treasures of those cultivators governed by him would be swindled out of by Li Ye... maybe even all of them would!
This was very sad!
At that ti, the strength of the City Lord’s Mansion would be greatly reduced. Then many demons who had been coveting the position of the City Lord would act with their forces...
The demon bear thought that hiding from Li Ye could avoid being frad by Li Ye and dying of anger caused by Li Ye, but the facts showed that he had made a mistake...
He was very angry and wanted to hit the wall now!
But what could he do?
To forbid the demons from eting Prince An? Or to forbid all demons from wrestling Prince An? Or to forbid gambling in the mansion?
He had no reason to do those things!
Even if he forbade them from doing those things, would those demons who had lost a lot of magic treasures be willing to obey? Would they hate the demon bear? Would they doubt the demon bear’s motive?
The demon bear was too deep for tears.
He looked up to the sky, although he could not see the sky in the cave, and felt that it was really going to collapse
“Why did I get into trouble with such a devil as Prince An?”
“The Macaque King wants to kill !”
...
In the yard, all the demons were surprised and gasped.
Just now, Li Ye had experienced a dangerous situation where his wrist was only ten centiters away from the table. After a bitter battle with Wu Liuqi which had lasted fifteen minutes, Li Ye, the weak, finally turned the tables and defeated the strong with the endurance unimaginable to the demons!
When his wrist was heavily pressed on the table, Wu Liuqi was completely stunned.
At this mont, looking at Li Ye, who had used up all strength and was lying on the ground, Wu Liuqi still felt untrue. As a cultivator in the Sky Immortal Realm, he was actually defeated by a cultivator in the Ground Immortal Realm in the wrist wrestling ga!
Even though Wu Liuqi was free and uninhibited and didn’t care about other demons’ eyes, he still blushed at the mont. It was not because of tiredness, but because of guilt and sha.
“Ha ha, I won again. Thank you, thank you!” Li Ye got up with a smile on his face and proudly made a bow with hands folded in front towards Wu Liuqi. Then he ca to the magic treasures. This ti, he didn’t throw magic treasures into the sky. Instead, he just lay on them and laughed happily.
After two gambling gas, he won nearly 200 magic treasures. How could he not be happy?
The demon python’s face darkened. He stared at Wu Liuqi with an unhappy face. He suspected that this guy had cheated!
In the face of the demon python’s eyes, Wu Liuqi turned very angry. He wanted to jump up and shout, “You could be dissatisfied with my failure, but you can’t suspect and insult !”
Childe Python was relaxed now. At last, he could feel the mood the sheep demon had when he saw him lose. That was a kind of happiness one would have when he saw soone else stand up to take the bla so that he looked less miserable!
“Prince An is mighty!”
“Prince An is so powerful!”
“Prince An is a God!”
So female demons scread one by one. They had been completely conquered by Li Ye and even cheered for him, regardless of their position and the eyes of the demons.
Wu You, the innkeepers and others, who were leisurely eating lon seeds beside, looked at these female demons with contempt in their eyes. “You ignorant female demons are so naive. Elder Brother Ye (Prince An) has not made any effort at all, which already made you excited. Will you faint directly later?”
Li Ye lay down for a while and got up from the small hill of magic treasures. Then, in the murderous eyes of the demon python, he put all the magic treasures into his storage bag with a smile on his face.
The demon python thought he had to do sothing.
After all, Childe Python and Wu Liuqi were his people. Now many demons had lost so many magic treasures because of him and they all looked at him with different eyes.
As the deputy chief of the City-protecting Army, if he lost the support of the demons, he wouldn’t lead the team and his position would be in danger.
“Prince An, why on earth could you win? Do you have any secrets? Did you... use so ans unknown to us? If not, how could you win?” the demon python asked in a cold voice.
Li Ye took away the magic treasures. Hearing the critical words, he was very angry and displeased. He snorted, swung his sleeves, and said, “I told you that I didn’t use all my strength and reminded you to be careful. But you didn’t believe it! I also reminded you not to regret. Are you regretful now? What a sha!”
All demons were speechless.
“If we knew that it’s true that you didn’t do your best, would we still take out our magic treasures obediently?”
“But you, a cultivator in the Ground Immortal Realm, said you had hidden your strength. Who believes?”
Seeing the expressions of the demons, Li Ye threw up his hands. “Am I the one to bla?”
The demons only thought that today’s experience really made them feel worse than eating shit.
The demon python refused to give up. He said in a gloomy voice, “You said you didn’t use any ans. I am the first one not to be convinced! Are you a rare genius or hero who cos around every ten thousand years?”
Li Ye raised his head and said, “When everyone thinks you can’t do it, you believe in yourself and do it. This is the way to beco a hero! I, Li Ye, Prince An of the Tang Empire, am such a person!”
