Chapter 17: A 100,000 Spirit Stone Gamble
The elders of the two sects came forward to receive the bracelets.
Zhang Yun also walked among them.
"You are the famous weird elder of Lingxian Sect, right?"
A mocking voice suddenly came from his ear. A young elder in a blue robe from Nanshan Sect was looking him up and down with an expression of appreciation for the strange: "Tsk tsk, Lingxian Sect is really easy to get into. Even those with foundation building stage cultivation can become elders!"
Zhang Yun frowned slightly.
The young elder's voice was obviously intentionally louder. Everyone present heard it and looked sideways.
"Weird elder? Is he the one who cultivated himself to the point of going astray and his cultivation level regressed?"
"It turned out to be him. I heard my friend from Lingxian Sect talking about him a few days ago!"
"How dare he bring his disciples to the exchange meeting between the two sects when his cultivation level has fallen?"
...
One after another looked at Zhang Yun and talked about it.
Seeing this, the elders of Lingxian Sect all looked gloomy, knowing that the young elder of Nanshan Sect was deliberately looking for trouble, but they could not refute this.
For a moment, they all looked at Zhang Yun with some dissatisfaction.
As if to say, you alone have directly lowered our level!
Zhang Yun rolled his eyes, but shook his head slightly when listening to the discussion in the field.
Sure enough, it is the same in every world, gossip spreads the fastest!
Glancing at the young elder of Nanshan Sect who spoke, he was not angry, but just asked lightly: "What is the name of this elder?"
"Why, do you want to meet this elder?"
The young elder heard this and sneered: "This elder is not interested..."
"So you call me elder, this surname is rare!"
Before the other party finished speaking, Zhang Yun said with a look of "I understand".
"What nonsense are you talking about, this elder... When did I say I was called this elder? I am the eighth elder of Nanshan Sect, Qiu Lue!"
"Oh, so your name is Qiu Lue!"
Zhang Yun nodded.
"Asshole!"
Qiu Lue immediately realized that he had been tricked into revealing his name, and he was furious.
"Qiu Lue, please torture me... Tsk tsk, this name is even more unique than this elder!"
Zhang Yun smacked his lips.
"You..."
Qiu Lue, who was already angry, became even angrier after hearing this.
Zhang Yun smiled: "This elder who wants to be abused, since you know me, I wonder if you are interested in making a bet with me?"
"Bet?"
Qiu Lue was stunned, "What do you want to bet?"
"The exchange meeting between the two sects will start soon, let's bet on our performance in the exchange meeting between the two sects!"
Zhang Yun smiled and said: "The final performance of your and my disciples will be better, and whoever has better performance will win. The loser will give the other party 10,000 spirit stones, how about it?"
"10,000 spirit stones?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was silent.
The onlookers looked at Zhang Yun in astonishment. Is this weird elder crazy? Betting with a Jindan-stage elder, and betting 10,000 spirit stones? Is he going to give some spirit stones because he thinks it's too much?
However, when the elders of Lingxian Sect heard this number, they looked at Zhang Yun strangely.
"Are you sure?"
Qiu Lue, the person involved, was stunned for a while before reacting, and looked at Zhang Yun in surprise.
"Elder 'Seeking Abuse' doesn't dare to take a gamble?"
Zhang Yun shrugged.
"Why not!"
Qiu Lue snorted and sneered, "You want to give me spirit stones, then I will take them."
As he said that, he thought of something and glanced at Zhang Yun with contempt, "It's just 10,000 spirit stones. I am a little worried that I can't take them out during the foundation building period. You are not just talking nonsense and cheating afterwards, right?"
"Don't worry about this 'Seeking Abuse' elder. I can definitely take out 10,000 spirit stones. If you don't believe me, you can ask our ten elders!"
Zhang Yun smiled and pointed to the side.
Meng Zhong, who was pointed at, twitched his face and knew that Zhang Yun was referring to the 10,000 spirit stones he won from him.
He actually used his spirit stones as a bet with others, this bastard! !
Meng Zhong was so angry that his teeth itched.
Facing Qiu Lue's curious eyes, he just snorted and turned his head away.
This attitude made Qiu Lue a little strange, but he didn't care too much.
"Okay, this elder will bet with you!"
Ten thousand spirit stones are sent to your door for free, why not refuse them for nothing!
"Wait a minute!"
Zhang Yun suddenly spoke.
"Why, you proposed the bet yourself, and now you want to regret it?"
Qiu Lue sneered.
In his opinion, Zhang Yun deliberately proposed ten thousand spirit stones, probably to scare him off. Seeing that he couldn't scare him off, he wanted to regret it!
"Elder 'Seeking Abuse', you have a rich imagination!"
Zhang Yun rolled his eyes and said lightly: "I just want to say that your previous words reminded me. I'm afraid that after I win, you can't come up with ten thousand spirit stones!"
"Will this elder lose?"
Qiu Lue sneered.
Zhang Yun said lightly: "Elder 'Seeking Abuse', it's good to be confident. But what I'm talking about is practical. I can find our tenth elder Mengzhong to guarantee me, can you find someone to guarantee you?"
"When will this elder..."
Hearing this, Mengzhong on the side suddenly stared at him.
He guaranteed Zhang Yun?
What a joke!
"Elder Meng Zhong!"
Before he could finish, Zhang Yun interrupted him with a smile and glanced at the leader of Lingxian Sect and others beside him.
Meng Zhong was startled, and felt the eyes of the leader of Lingxian Sect and the elders looking at him at this time, and the corner of his mouth twitched immediately.
In this situation, if he said "no", it would be to undermine the elders of his own family.
It's okay to have conflicts within the family, but if he makes trouble outside, facing the old rival Nanshan Sect, it will affect the unity of the sect. The leader of Lingxian Sect will definitely be the first one to not forgive him afterwards.
"Shameless bastard!"
Looking at the smiling Zhang Yun, Meng Zhong was so angry that his back teeth were broken, but he still didn't say anything.
It was equivalent to tacitly guaranteeing Zhang Yun.
Qiu Lue frowned when he saw this, and couldn't help turning his head to look at their elders of Nanshan Sect.
"Our sect can guarantee Elder Qiu!"
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded.
Everyone was startled, and all looked at the Nanshan Sect Master who spoke.
The Nanshan Sect Master smiled faintly at Zhang Yun, "Elder Zhang, do you think our sect is qualified to guarantee Elder Qiu?"
Zhang Yun looked at him with some surprise, but still nodded: "Since the Nanshan Sect Master is willing to guarantee, then there is naturally no problem..."
"But our sect feels that the bet of 10,000 spirit stones is a little too little. Elder Zhang, are you interested in increasing the bet?"
The Nanshan Sect Master spoke again, smiling: "If you win, our sect will give you an extra 100,000 spirit stones. If you lose, you only need to give Elder Qiu half more, that is, 50,000 spirit stones, how about it?"
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the field.
100,000 spirit stones, this is already an astronomical figure for ordinary cultivators!
Zhang Yun's eyebrows jumped. I didn't expect the other party to play so big!
"Why, Elder Zhang doesn't dare?"
Seeing that he didn't reply, the Nanshan Sect Master raised his eyebrows.
This obviously provocative statement made the other elders of Lingxian Sect frown and persuade Zhang Yun, "Ninth Elder, don't be impulsive!"
They didn't care much about Zhang Yun, but this was in public. Once the bet was made, if Zhang Yun lost, he would have to pay 10,000 plus 50,000, 60,000 spirit stones.
If he couldn't pay the spirit stones, it would be a small matter for Zhang Yun to lose face, but the whole Lingxian Sect would be embarrassed!
"Since the leader of Nanshan Sect wants to bet, then Zhang has no right to say it!"
...
