Chapter 91 – Gambling with the devil
The girl Wu Tong and the middle-aged miner were extrely cautious of Su Yun, but Su Yun didn't realize that he was the mastermind behind the scenes. He had to pretend to be an inspector, and if it weren't for Master Tu Ming's coercion, he wouldn't have co to investigate the case at the coal plant at night.
- He didn't even know what case he was investigating!
He never thought that he would et the demon girl Wu Tong and the real inspector here.
All of this was planned by Wu Tong and the miner, and it was purely coincidental for Su Yun.
He was just a rural teenager who had just entered the city for the first ti. At most, he was a little more cunning. How could he have such a deep understanding of the city?
"Of the four of us, I'm the weakest, but it seems like they all think I'm the strongest, the most sinister, the worst, and the most feared."
He had a headache. "I just want to establish myself in Shuofang and send my younger brother and sister to school..."
Su Yun settled down and still felt a little nervous, but he kept his composure and asked in a mysterious tone, "So, have you found anything during this investigation?"
The middle-aged miner glanced at Wu Tong and Jiao Shu'Ao, and Su Yun boldly said, "There are no outsiders here, even if there are, they can't escape my grasp. Just tell ."
Wu Tong gave him a coquettish glance, blushing and giggling, "Can't I escape from your grasp?"
Su Yun remained calm.
The middle-aged miner said, "The Tong family is trying to find the king of gods sealed in the coal dust in this underground coal plant. They have calculated that the king of gods is in the coal plant mountain, but they unexpectedly found a building from the current era inside the mountain!"
Su Yun still had a mysterious expression, while Wu Tong looked confused. The coal dust was the ashes of the previous world. How could a building from the current era be found in it?
And how could a building from the current era appear in the coal dust?
Jiao Shu'Ao, who was beside them, glared at Su Yun with a black face. His new dragon tooth sword, forged with venomous teeth, trembled in his blood and qi, seemingly uninterested in anything else, but only interested in Su Yun.
"That's a very strange building."
The middle-aged miner walked towards the coal plant mountain along the central avenue and said, "I have never seen such a building. Since the Tong family dug there, dozens of spirit masters have died, including so great masters in the Yuan Dong and Li Yuan realms, but they still couldn't open the building!"
Su Yun still had a mysterious and inscrutable expression, but he was confused in his heart. "I know what the Yuan Dong realm is, but what is the Li Yuan realm? And what about the Tian Xiang realm that he ntioned earlier?"
He had just entered the official school, and he had studied under the guidance of the wild fox teacher since childhood. No one had ever told him how the realms were divided.
He was completely puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask too much.
After all, he was a scholar from the Heavenly Dao Academy, and he was also the emperor's envoy. How could he not even know how the realms were arranged?"The Tong family was unable to open even the Thirty-Six Palaces, but this ti, during the official school holidays, they invited a professor from the Western Academy of Architecture who was able to unlock the Thirty-Six Palaces and break their seals! This professor is rumored to be a disciple of Lou Ban Lou Tian Shi, and his skills are extrely high. He is currently opening the central hall of the Jiéhuī Mountain for the Tong family, where there is likely a sealed Jiéhuī God King. It is there that the contemporary building was discovered.
At the end of the central avenue is the towering Jiéhuī Mountain.
The miners of the Jiéhuī Factory have already excavated deep into the mountain and, after walking a few steps through the rocky area, they found the ground becoming flat. They had dug a road outside the central palace of the city.
And the further inside they went, the flatter it beca.
Suddenly, it opened up into a vast expanse of land, about a hundred acres wide, where many miners were carving the Jiéhuī with their axes and chisels. They knocked down piece by piece of the Jiéhuī, gradually carving out the huge black stones like black coffins.
Here, there were thousands of sealed Jiéhuī monsters, standing like a thousand black stone coffins in the square!
Even Su Yun was a little frightened by this scene!
"What does the Tong family want to do with these Jiéhuī monsters? Why did they dig them out? And where are they taking them?" Su Yun couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know where the Tong family is transporting the black coffins containing the Jiéhuī monsters," the middle-aged miner shook his head.
Su Yun looked at the towering Jiéhuī monsters and couldn't help but feel afraid. If these Jiéhuī monsters were released, the entire Jiéhuī Factory would be wiped out in an instant!
If the Jiéhuī monsters rushed into the city, it would cause great destruction!
He shuddered and whispered, "What does the Tong family want to do? Did Master Tu Ming, who lived near the Jiéhuī Factory, also notice sothing?"
Beside him, the girl Wu Tong secretly looked at the sealed Jiéhuī monsters, her eyes flashing, and a small smile forming on her lips, creating a charming smile. However, in the eyes of others, she was still a short, fat, and muscular male miner, and there was no indication that she was a cute little girl in a red dress.
Su Yun caught a glimpse of her smile and his heart tightened. He whispered, "If you dare to act recklessly, don't bla for not showing you any rcy as a fellow student!"
Wu Tong chuckled, "Act recklessly? Su Yun, do you think I need to act recklessly? What is the purpose of soone digging out these Jiéhuī monsters? Is it just for display?"She sneered, "I ca here to release these calamity gray monsters, create chaos and turmoil, absorb the resentnt and power of countless living beings dying, and I will quickly grow stronger! But now it seems that I don't need to do anything."
Su Yun was stunned, looking at the black coffins in front of him.
The voice of the girl Wu Tong sounded in his ear, "You imagine demons to be too evil. People just like to bla demons for bad things, but in fact, demons have not done many bad things. Those killings are actually created by people's ambitions. While demons enjoy the benefits, they also bear the infamy."
Su Yun looked at her deeply, "I will not be swayed by you."
Wu Tong sneered, "Then Su Shizi, I want to make a bet with you."
Su Yun frowned, "What bet?"
"I bet with you that I will not do anything, not influence anyone, and within half a year, there will be a great turmoil and catastrophe in Shuofang, and soone will do worse than as a demon!"
Wu Tong's voice was full of a chilly chill, different from the warmth and enthusiasm brought by her red clothes. She said coldly, "Soone will take advantage of this opportunity, borrow the bones of countless people, make a na for themselves, gain supre reputation and power, and march into the capital to seize the throne! Su Shizi, do you want to bet on the good and evil of human nature with , a heinous demon?"
Su Yun clenched his fists and whispered, "What is the stake?"
Wu Tong's eyes flickered and she said, "The stake is, if I win, you owe a life, and if I fall into your hands, you cannot kill ."
Su Yun was puzzled, what kind of request was this?
This stake clearly ant that Wu Tong thought there was a possibility of falling into Su Yun's hands, and even the possibility of dying in his hands, so she used this stake to beg for rcy!
But last ti, Su Yun had fought with Wu Tong once in the Ten Splendid Picture, which left a deep shadow on him. The feeling of powerlessness at that ti still made him shudder.
Now, listening to Wu Tong's words, it seed that she also had a psychological shadow!
It seed that this demon woman was sowhat afraid of him and did not dare to confront him head-on.
"This woman has caused great psychological trauma, forcing to practice diligently and try to refine the Great Unity Technique. Unexpectedly, I was scared by her, and she was also scared by ."
Su Yun had a feeling of extre absurdity, and his confidence, which had been hit by Wu Tong, quickly recovered. He thought to himself, "It turns out that I am so powerful in my heart."
"Okay, I'll bet with you."
Su Yun's eyes were shining, even if his face was covered in gray, he couldn't hide his excitent. He said, "But this stake is mutual. If I win, you cannot kill if I fall into your hands in the future."The girl Wu Tong was also slightly stunned: "Why did he take this opportunity to beg for rcy? Does he think that I am his equal in this ga, and he doesn't have full confidence in defeating ?"
She felt a little happy in her heart: "The outco of this bet will take half a year, and he won't co after during that ti. By then, my spiritual realm will probably have reached the fifth or even sixth level, and with the turmoil in Shuofang, my strength will only grow stronger! Even if he has that terrifying swordsmanship, it would be easy for to kill him! But..."
Her mind beca a little panicked: "But, why did he give up half a year of ti so generously? Does he have enough confidence that I won't catch up to him in this half year? Is he really that powerful?"
She couldn't help but recall Su Yun's sword, that terrifying sword that woke her up from a nightmare!
Her real goal was actually to delay this half year of ti.
The pressure Su Yun gave her was too great, and even if Su Yun promised her half a year, she didn't have enough confidence to decipher Su Yun's sword.
Su Yun didn't know that she was thinking so much. He just wanted half a year of peace.
"Su Shizi, since we are not enemies within half a year, maybe we can be friends."
Wu Tong carefully worded her statent, so as not to anger him or leave a bad impression on him, and said: "As a friend, I want to warn you about one thing: no matter how you gamble, never gamble with human nature. Otherwise, you will lose miserably!"
Su Yun was slightly stunned and looked deeply at her.
Jiao Shu'Ao, who was eating with the whole village, was confused throughout the whole process, thinking to himself: "Why is Senior Wu Tong so polite to this kid? He broke my sword several tis. There's no need to be polite to him. Just stab him and be done with it!"
In his heart, Wu Tong was a true dragon, and no one could change his mind.
Because Wu Tong had taught him the real and true "Sixteen Chapters of the True Dragon," there was absolutely no falsehood!
Just then, soone shouted loudly: "Hurry up and work! Load these black coffins onto the trucks and transport them away tonight! Be careful!"
Su Yun's heart trembled.
Wu Tong said lightly: "Maybe we don't even need to wait half a year, we can already determine the outco of this bet."
Su Yun murmured: "Human nature, is it really so fragile..."
Wu Tong sneered and walked forward: "When has human nature ever been strong? I knew this since the last life. Only a kid like you still believes in human nature. These people commit slaughter and bla it on , claiming that I am the one who ordered the Gray Monster massacre and took my head to worship their flag!"
Jiao Shu'Ao quickly followed her.The middle-aged miner whispered, "I can only send you here. Further in is the interior of the Grey Robbery Mountain, and I cannot control anyone who enters. I am going to investigate where the Grey Robbery Monsters were taken. Be cautious and do not implicate !"
Su Yun silently nodded.
The miner suddenly changed his expression, scratching his head in confusion and looking around, unaware of how he ended up there.
The Northern Frontier City uses a spell of ntal control to manipulate his every move and word. Once the control is lifted, the miner will awaken.
.
Su Yun followed Wu Tong and Jiao Shu'Ao, looking back at the huge black coffin being loaded onto the cart in the square. He silently thought, "Can humanity withstand the test?"
