"Sister, I want to bet something." Si Yu came in front of the betting counters and said, "What is it, sir?" the female at the counter replied with a smile. "I would like to bet my life." "What?! Are you serious?" The counter female was shocked, not just her, but her fellow companions who were also registering bets, and the people standing next to her were also shocked after hearing Si Yu. They were all stunned for a reason: after all, Si Yu wanted to bet his life that not even the old people who were close to dying could do so. And he was still young at that. "Is he really serious?! " "He is just a kid! How can he put his life on the line by putting his hope on complete strangers?""I wonder what made him do this? Is he doing it for his loved ones?" The people standing next to the counter were all shocked to see this. "Sir, please tell us what you want in return and on whom do you want to place your bet?" The female who was recording bets on paper hurriedly asked. "I want twe
"Very well, let's begin the fight. Are you two ready?" Zing Ghe asked Yang Zhai and Yen Hu. "Hmm," Both of them nodded. "Okay, begin the fight." Zing Ghe announced the start of their fight and jumped down from the stage. He had no purpose of staying on the stage. After all, everything was allowed, even killing. So, he just had to announce the beginning and the end of a fight. Yen Hu released twenty small bees into the air. After this, he activated a treasure and his clothes changed colors to gray. Then, he pulled out a sword from the scabbard that hung by his waist. Yang Zhai looked at Yen Hu quietly. "Are you ready?" This time it was Yang Zhai who asked Yen Hu whether he was ready. Yen Hu did not say anything and looked at Yang Zhai with complete focus. He knew that Yang Zhai was definitely not an easy opponent: thus, he first wanted to see what Yang Zhai would do before he attacked Yang Zhai. Yang Zhai moved forward. His hands started to turn brown slowly. "Attack him!" Whe
"He is really strong!""He did not even give Yen Hu any chance to fight back, it was totally a one-sided fight.""He used his full strength from the very start. Maybe he knew that Yen Hu was strong and needed to end this fight as quickly as possible.""Yeah, I think he shouldn't have used his full strength and could have just fought with just half of his strength. At least, in this way, we could have gotten a good fight to watch.""Who told you that he used his full strength, I think he only used around eighty percent of his strength.""Sigh, I should have just bet my life on him when that kid bid his life on Yang Zhai. I should have known that the kid must have some kind of confidence to bet his life."Many people in the crowd thought that Yang Zhai used his full strength and wanted him to use only half of his strength. Little did they know that if Yang Zhai had used half of his strength, the battle would have ended just as it had started. But, this was what Yang Zhai wanted as well
"Yang Zhai,"Yang Zhai was about to unseal the sealing jade when he heard a voice from outside the tent."Yes, elder," Yang Zhai knew to whom this voice belonged, so he went and greeted the third elder. He stored the sealing jade in the pouch hanging on his waist."How are you doing?" "Fine, I am really happy that you are worried about me.""Who is he?" Zihao De looked at Si Yu who was standing by Yang Zhai's side and asked."He is a good friend of mine. I met him in the forest when I was going to the Ma clan. He was being attacked by a beast." Yang Zhai said politely and did not reject the third elder from answering his questions."Oh, I can see that you trust him highly. Anyway, why did he ask for the rewards from the Ma clan instead of the Bai clan: after all, if he lost, you might have been able to save him from the Bai clan." Elder Zihao De was a great strategist, how could he not know about the events that took place at the betting counter today? He also knew the emotional eff
Yang Zhai returned to his tent. It was already past midnight. He saw that Si Yu was already sleeping on one side of the tent. Yang Zhai was also tired from today's journey. He had to travel tomorrow again: so, he went back to sleep. He was not worried about him being attacked. The Bai clan knew that Yang Zhai was their strongest participant and Ai Hao was a healing cultivator: so, they couldn't lose him. He was sure that there were definitely one or two people outside the tent, protecting him. Especially after today's event. And the third elder also needed him for his plan, therefore, his safety was certain. ….. The next day, Four elders including Yu Ene, Yu Ane, Zihao De, and Ren Fang stood together. With them were five disciples of the Bai clan. Si Yu was also with them. They were getting ready to travel back to the Bai clan. "So, is he coming with us as well?" Si Kim asked Yang Zhai whilst looking at Si Yu. "Yes," "But, he is not from the Bai clan." "So what?" "Accordin
A change, was there anything that did not change? Fate, was there anything that was not fated? Freedom, was there anything that was free? If one thing could affect many different things and could cause unexpected situations, then, was change a freedom? If the result was going to happen unexpectedly, then, was fate permanent? If something could be affected by the reaction of someone else, then was this through change or fate? Everything changes, a seed grows into a tree one day. But, the tree is the fate of a seed if it remains in a safe environment. The same was for a living being. A living being grows from being a child into youth and then old, then, it dies. Is this growth considered a change, or is the result considered fate? Or, could it be that these two were interlinked? If true, then what was more dominant? A man came running with blood all over his body. The man had long black hair and looked quite handsome. However, he had a knife pierced into his body. He was missing one
Everyone had returned back to the Ma clan. Si Yu went back to the rented house and Yang Zhai went back to his house. On the other hand, the third elder was investigating the man caught by elder Yu Ene. "Tell me already, and you can be free from the torture." The third elder was torturing the man to reveal the reason for attacking them. He was hoping that the man would say the name of the Ma clan. "I told…you already. Someone from the Bai clan hired me. That man hid his face. Also, my target was Feng Qi, not someone else." The man was being tortured by the third elder again and again. The third elder would heal the man and torture him again."If Feng Qi was targeted, then what's the reason? Tell me, or, you will not die easily.""I, I don't don't…know the…reason. I was just hired and that's all. Otherwise, why would I… value the life of someone…over myself?"He is not saying anything else besides this, there can only be two reasons: first, he is telling the truth and second is that
Ci An jumped at Yang Zhai with a poisoned knife from a very close distance. From this distance, it was impossible for Yang Zhai to dodge. He hurriedly moved his right arm forward. While his right arm was moving forward to defend, his hands were also turning brown. He had also activated the Wooden-Fists Ka. To him, defending himself came first right now. His right hand had barely arrived in front of himself when the poisoned knife landed on his right hand. The Wooden Fists Ka was still activating, but it was not completely activated when the knife landed on his right hand. Yang Zhai felt pain. However, this was not what worried him, but that he felt a sensation come into his right hand. "Poison," Yang Zhai's eyes narrowed. "This is bad." He hurriedly kicked Ci An away from himself and jumped back. He did not know what kind of poison it was, but he could feel that the sensation was slowly traveling from his hand toward his arm. "You are done for, this poison will kill you,
