Chapter 17 The Gamble of One Hundred Thousand Spiritual Stones
The elders of the two sects stepped forward to receive the bracelets.
Zhang Yun was also walking among them.
"You are the famous and strange elder of Lingxian Sect, right?"
Suddenly, a sarcastic voice came to his ears, and he saw a young elder from the Nanshan Sect wearing a blue robe looking him up and down, with an expression of admiration: "Tsk, tsk, Lingxian Sect is really easy to mess around, you have cultivated in the foundation period. You can actually become an elder!”
Zhang Yun frowned slightly.
The young elder's voice was obviously louder on purpose, and everyone present heard it and looked sideways.
"The weird elder? Is he the one who cultivated himself to the point of going crazy and regressing in cultivation?"
"It turned out to be him. I just heard my friends from the Lingxian Sect talk about it a few days ago!"
"How can he still dare to bring his disciples to these two sect exchange meetings when his cultivation level has declined?"
…
People looked at Zhang Yun and started talking.
When the elders of Lingxian Sect saw this, their expressions darkened. They knew that the young elder of Nanshan Sect was deliberately looking for trouble, but they could not refute this.
For a moment, everyone looked at Zhang Yun with some dissatisfaction.
It seems to be saying, you alone have directly lowered our standards!
Zhang Yun rolled his eyes, but shook his head slightly as he listened to the discussion.
Sure enough, it’s the same in every world, gossip spreads the fastest!
He glanced at the young elder of Nanshan Sect who spoke. He was not angry and just asked lightly: "What is the name of this elder?"
"What, you want to get to know this elder?"
Hearing this, the young elder smiled disdainfully: "I am not interested..."
"It turns out that your Excellency is called Elder. This surname is quite rare!"
Before the other party had finished speaking, Zhang Yun said with an "I understand" look.
"What nonsense are you talking about, my elder... When did I say that my name is elder? I am the eighth elder of the Nanshan Sect, Qiu Lue!"
"Oh, so your name is Qiu Lue!"
Zhang Yun nodded.
"asshole!"
Qiu Lue immediately realized that his name had been deceived, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed.
"Qiu Lue, please forgive 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 more angry when he heard this.
Zhang Yun smiled: "This elder of 'Qiu Abuse', since you know me, are you interested in making a bet with me?"
"bet?"
Qiu was slightly startled, "What do you want to bet on?"
"The two exchange meetings will start soon. Let's bet on our results in these two exchange meetings!"
Zhang Yun smiled and said: "The final result of leading our respective disciples between you and me, whoever is better, wins. How about the loser giving the other party 10,000 spirit stones?"
"Ten thousand spirit stones?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place fell silent.
The onlookers all looked at Zhang Yun in astonishment. Is this strange elder crazy? A bet with a golden elixir stage elder and a bet of 10,000 spirit stones? Is it because you think there are too many spiritual stones and you want to give some away?
However, when the elders of Lingxian Sect heard this number, they looked at Zhang Yun strangely.
"you sure?"
As the person involved, Qiu Wei reacted after being stunned for a moment and looked at Zhang Yun with a surprised look on his face.
"Don't you dare to take a gamble, Elder Qiu Abuse?"
Zhang Yun shrugged.
"Why don't you dare!"
Qiu Lue snorted when he saw this, and said with a sneer: "If you want to give the spirit stone as a gift, the elder can just keep it."
As he said what he thought of, he glanced at Zhang Yun contemptuously: "It's only ten thousand spirit stones. I'm a little worried that I won't be able to get it during this foundation building period. You won't just talk about it and cheat afterwards, right?"
"Don't worry about this 'Qiu Abuse' elder. I can definitely get 10,000 spirit stones. If you don't believe me, you can ask our tenth elder!"
Zhang Yun smiled and pointed to the side.
Meng Zhong's face twitched when he was pointed out, knowing that Zhang Yun was referring to the 10,000 spiritual stones won from him.
He even used his spiritual stone as a bet with others, this bastard! !
Meng Zhong was so angry that his teeth itched.
Facing Qiu Lue's curious gaze, he just snorted and moved his head away.
This attitude made Qiu slightly strange, but he didn't care too much.
"Okay, this elder will bet with you!"
Don’t give up the 10,000 spiritual stones that were given to you for nothing!
"Wait!"
Zhang Yun suddenly spoke.
"What, you made the bet yourself, do you want to go back on it when things get worse?"
Qiu Lue sneered.
In his opinion, Zhang Yun specifically proposed 10,000 spirit stones, probably to scare him off by pretending to be 13. Seeing that I was scared to death, I wanted to regret it!
"Elder Qiu Abuse, you have such a rich imagination!"
Zhang Yun rolled his eyes and said calmly: "I just want to say that your previous words reminded me. I'm afraid that after I win, you won't be able to come up with 10,000 spiritual stones!"
"Will this elder lose?"
Qiu slightly sneered.
Zhang Yun said calmly: "Elder Qiu Abuse, it is a good thing to be confident. But I am being practical. I can ask our ten elders in Mengzhong to vouch for me. Can you find someone to vouch for you?"
"When will this elder..."
Hearing this, Meng Zhong suddenly looked over with eyes wide open.
Did he guarantee Zhang Yun?
What a joke!
"Elder Mengzhong!"
Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Yun interrupted him with a smile and glanced at the leader of the Lingxian Sect and others next to him.
Meng Zhong was startled, feeling the gazes of the Lingxian Sect leader and the elders looking at him, and the corner of his mouth suddenly twitched.
In this situation, if he said 'no', he would be undermining his parents.
It's okay to have conflicts internally, but externally, if he makes trouble when facing his old enemy Nanshan Sect, it will affect the unity of the sect. The leader of the Lingxian Sect would definitely not spare him afterward.
"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 a word.
It is equivalent to guaranteeing Zhang Yun by default.
Qiu Lue frowned when he saw this, and couldn't help turning his head to look at their Nanshan Sect elders.
"This sect can vouch for Elder Qiu!"
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded.
Everyone was startled and looked at the Nanshan Sect leader who spoke.
The head of Nanshan Sect looked at Zhang Yun with a faint smile, "Elder Zhang, do you think this sect is qualified to vouch for Elder Qiu?"
Zhang Yun glanced at the other party in surprise, but still nodded: "Since Nanshan Sect Master is willing to guarantee it, there is no problem..."
"But this sect feels that the stakes for these Ten Thousand Spiritual Stones are a bit low. Elder Zhang, are you interested in increasing the stakes?"
The leader of Nanshan Sect spoke again and said with a smile: "If you win, this sect will give you an extra hundred thousand spiritual stones. If you lose, you only need to give Elder Qiu half more, which is fifty thousand spiritual stones. How about that?"
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the venue.
One hundred thousand spiritual stones, this is already an astronomical sum for ordinary monks!
Zhang Yun's brows jumped. I didn’t expect the other party to play so big a game!
"What, Elder Zhang doesn't dare?"
Seeing that he didn't reply, the head of the Nanshan Sect raised his eyebrows.
These obviously irritating words made the other elders of Lingxian Sect frown, and they all tried to dissuade Zhang Yun, "Ninth Elder, don't be impulsive!"
They didn't care much about Zhang Yun, mainly because they were in public. Once the bet is made, if Zhang Yun loses, ten thousand plus fifty thousand, sixty thousand spiritual stones cannot be lost.
If the spiritual stone cannot be paid by then, it will be a trivial matter for Zhang Yun to lose face, but the entire Lingxian Sect will also be embarrassed!
"Since Nanshan Sect Master wants to gamble, then Zhang certainly doesn't dare to say it!"
