Chapter 777: Lu Cong

In truth, Huang Xiaolong had a peculiar feeling when he heard that the Qi Family Ancestor wanted Liu Yun to give a bride token of twenty thousand high divine grade spirit stones before he would be willing to rescind the marriage agreement with the Zhu Family.

What he, Huang Xiaolong, didn't lack the most were high divine grade spirit stones.

“That Qi Family Ancestor really said it like that?” Huang Xiaolong laughed, laughing so much that Liu Yun was baffled.

Seeing that Huang Xiaolong wouldn’t stop laughing, Liu Yun said, “I know Junior Apprentice-brother has the Hailstone and Xuanji Treasures, but those twenty thousand high divine grade spirit stones are not a small sum.”

To Liu Yun, even the Hailstone and Xuanji Treasures combined couldn’t have twenty thousand high divine grade spirit stones even if they emptied and sold all the spirit pellets and the Divine World iron and ores. It still wasn’t enough to gather 1.2 trillion!

Then again, despite their good relationship, Liu Yun couldn’t and was too embarrassed to extend his hand asking his Junior Apprentice-brother for it. Their relationship was another matter, but that was 1.2 trillion after all, not twelve billion!

Just as Liu Yun said that, Huang Xiaolong slightly turned his wrist. The hall quivered as countless spirit stones fell from the void.

In a few short seconds, spirit stones filled the hall. In that instant, vibrant spiritual energy surged madly.

Liu Yun stared dazedly at the hill of divine grade spirit stones, unable to react for a long time. And when he finally reacted, he went from astonishment to disbelief, then to trembling as he jumped to his feet, wobbling toward the spirit stone hill. Liu Yun’s hand reached out gingerly, touching and picking up one of the spirit stones. He mumbled incoherently, “Di-divine, h-high divine grade spirit stone! This, this, this is real, it’s real!”

Huang Xiaolong’s laughed sounded, “Of course it’s real, are there any fake high divine grade spirit stones?”

Liu Yun sucked in a breath of cold air, spinning around to face Huang Xiaolong, “Junior Apprentice-brother, this…!”

Huang Xiaolong waved his hand, “Senior Apprentice-brother, I know what you want to say. Just consider these twenty thousand high divine grade spirit stones as my wedding gift to you and Third Apprentice-sister, therefore you must absolutely accept it!”

Liu Yun still hesitated, “Still…!”

Twenty thousand high divine grade spirit stones, this wedding gift was overwhelmingly expensive!

Huang Xiaolong interjected, a smile on his face, “High divine grade spirit stones are something that I don’t lack, so you need not feel embarrassed. On the day you and Third Apprentice-sister get married, I’ll send another twenty thousand as a congratulatory gift.”

Liu Yun shuddered, his eyes widened in shock staring stupidly at Huang Xiaolong.

Send another twenty thousand as congratulatory gift!

At that moment, Liu Yun felt his head spin.

It was a long time later before Liu Yun finally regained his senses, and when he did, he hugged Huang Xiaolong tightly in gratitude.

The predicament that he had been agonizing over for so long was finally resolved. Like a small child a few years of age, he was laughing one second, crying the next.

Watching his Senior Apprentice-brother’s antics, Huang Xiaolong was speechless twice over. But he could empathize with Liu Yun’s feelings.

On the other hand, Huang Xiaolong was glad that Liu Yun did not ask him how he got so many high divine grade spirit stones.

Some time later, Huang Xiaolong left Liu Yun’s courtyard, whereas Liu Yun almost ran to towards Qi Wen’s place, wearing a happy smile. No doubt, he couldn't wait to share the good news with her.

Watching his Senior Apprentice-brother Liu Yun disappearing from sight, a faint smile tugged at the corners of Huang Xiaolong’s mouth as he walked out from the courtyards, strolling around idly.

While he was strolling around, he came across quite a few disciples from the four galaxies walking around in groups of two or three. They were exploring the place with their companions, talking and laughing.

“Rumours say that several people on the Highgod Advancement List are also here, even the third-ranked Lu Cong is here!”
