Chapter 52 – Fight! (1/2)

It was none other than Bao’er that spoke these words. For the sake of pleasing the little fellow, she’d searched throughout Talisman Peak. The heavens didn’t let Bao’er down, and she finally found her grandfather’s treasures.

Now, as soon as she obtained these treasures, she’d rushed over impatiently to look for Yang Ye.

However, she’d never expected that Yang Ye was partic.i.p.ating in the Outer Court Exam. This caused Bao’er who was unable to see the little fellow at the first possible moment feel slightly displeased. For the sake of being able to see the little fellow as soon as possible, she’d casually grabbed an outer court disciple and asked that disciple to lead her to the Sword Servant PaG.o.da.

Right when she arrived here, she’d heard Cao Huo’s words, and this caused her to feel even more displayed. Because she could look down upon the little laborer, but no one else could! Moreover, the little laborer was her junior brother, and as the little laborer’s senior sister, how could she allow others to look down upon her junior brother?

So, at this moment, Bao’er gazed at Cao Huo with an extremely hostile gaze.

All the other youths in the surroundings were slightly shocked when they saw that a little girl actually dared to address an outer court elder as a geezer. Because an outer court elder was an expert at the King Realm! If it wasn’t because the little girl was young and extremely cute, a few of these youths had almost been unable to restrain themselves from scolding her.

In the next moment, those few youths felt extremely fortunate that they hadn’t acted in that way. Because when those outer court elders that were supreme in their opinions saw the little girl, their originally solemn expressions instantly became slightly strange. First, they revealed extreme surprise, and then it transformed into extremely bitter expressions. In the end, they had extremely forced smiled on their faces.

“Bao, Bao’er. What’re you doing here?” Cao Huo squeezed out a smile, and it was extremely forced.

Bao’er grunted coldly and said, “Geezer, didn’t you say that you want to make a bet? Bao’er will bet with you!”

When they saw the little she-devil was looking for trouble with Cao Huo, all the other outer court elders at the side hurriedly moved aside and maintained a certain amount of distance from Cao Huo. What a joke! Would anyone dare to offend this little she-devil?

Cao Huo cursed in his heart when he noticed their actions, and then he said with a smile, “I was joking. I was just joking earlier. There’s utterly no bet at all!”

How could he dare to make a bet with Bao’er? Because no matter if he won or lost, it still wouldn’t be good for him.

Bao’er obviously didn’t intend to let Cao Huo off, and her eyes narrowed as she said, “Geezer, are you looking down on Bao’er?”

When he noticed the little she-devil seemed to be on the verge of getting angry, Cao Huo’s eyes narrowed, and he groaned bitterly in his heart. If I knew this would happen, then I wouldn’t have mentioned that bet no matter what!

Meanwhile, Elder Qian seemed to take pleasure in Cao Huo’s misfortune and said, “Exactly, Cao Huo, are you looking down on Bao’er?”

The other elders at the side hurriedly chimed on, and they simultaneously stood on Bao’er’s side.

Cao Huo’s eyes could almost shoot flames as he gazed at these outer court elders. They’re pus.h.i.+ng me into the frying pan!

Meanwhile, Bao’er said, “Geezer, don’t act like that, Bao’er won’t make it unfavorable for you. How about this? If Bao’er loses, then Bao’er will ask Grandpa to inscribe another sword formation on that sword chest of yours, and if you lose, then you just have to give me that sword chest. What do you think?”

“For real?” Cao Huo’s eyes lit up, and he spoke in a slightly excited manner. His sword chest already had a sword formation on it, and if another sword formation was inscribed, then its might and value would at least double! Most importantly, Bao’er had mentioned her grandfather, and everyone knew her grandfather! He was a Heaven Talisman Master! The inscription of a Heaven Talisman Master could truly only be chanced upon by luck!

It wasn’t just Cao Huo, even the other elders at the side were moved by this. If the Dark Treasure in their possession was inscribed by a Heaven Talisman Master, then their combat strength would absolutely be able to improve greatly! However, all of them still didn’t take the initiative to make a bet with Bao’er because Bao’er asking them for a bet and them asking Bao’er for a bet was too entirely different concepts.

If Bao’er’s grandfather misunderstood and thought that the few of them had tricked Bao’er, then they would truly be in deep s.h.i.+t.

Bao’er glanced at Cao Huo with displeasure and said, “Would Bao’er deceive you? Not to mention that it’s only a sword formation, and Grandpa can finish it with ease!”

“Alright, I’ll make the bet!” This time, there wasn’t a trace of a troubled expression on Cao Huo’s face. Conversely, he smiled extremely brilliantly.

Meanwhile, the gazes of the other elders towards Cao Huo carried slight envy. If Cao Huo won, then he would benefit greatly; and if Cao Huo lost… could Cao Huo even lose? It wasn’t that they looked down upon Yang Ye, and it was instead because they knew how difficult the 19th level was. Could a Profounder at the eighth rank of the Mortal Realm ascend to the 19th level? Not to mention them, even Elder Qian who was close to Yang Ye didn’t really believe it was possible.
