Chapter 1449: Is Something the Matter? (2/2)

Fu Feiyu stiffened unnoticeably as he too hadn’t expected Huang Xiaolong to respond in this manner after introducing himself. Huang Xiaolong had actually asked him if there was something of matter...?

Liu Qin erupted in laughter as he came to Fu Feiyu’s side. “I say, Brother Fu, you’re sticking your face to another person’s cold butt. He doesn’t seem to appreciate your kindness ah.”

Fu Feiyu’s face darkened with sullenness.

He didn’t have a good impression about the girly guy Liu Qin, but now, he regarded Huang Xiaolong even below Liu Qin.

Huang Xiaolong, a mere peak early Tenth Order Ancestor God Realm disciple, had the guts to disregard him in public? This was equivalent to slapping his face!

But Fu Feiyu’s expression recovered swiftly. He said to Liu Qin, “Liu Qin, let’s make a bet. How about it?”

Liu Qin followed up with a smile, “Bet what? What are the takes?”

Fu Feiyu pointed at Huang Xiaolong. “Bet who’s luck is better; let’s see who could find this kid during the rankings competition and defeat him.”

Liu Qin giggled with a hand over his mouth. “Compete our luck? My luck has always been good. Alright then, I’ll bet with you... How many spirit stones?”

“Hmm, how about one million low grade-seven spirit stones?” Fu Feiyu suggested generously.

One million low grade-seven spirit stones was not a small amount.

Lu Qin chuckled coquettishly. “Deal! One million low grade-seven spirit stones it is.”

With that, Huang Xiaolong became the target of their bet.

Huang Xiaolong sneered inwardly.

Due to Liu Qin and Fu Feiyu’s obvious dislike towards Huang Xiaolong, the other disciples within close proximity to Huang Xiaolong hurried away, putting a distance between them, as they were clearly afraid of getting implicated if they lingered around him unnecessarily.

Liu Qin and Fu Feiyu subsequently chose the center of the square as their meditation spots, surrounded by a group of disciples like stars embracing the moon as they waited for the next day to arrive.

…

The night was quiet with the occasional soft breeze blowing through the square.

Soon, dawn crept up from the horizon.

At the first ray of light, a group of Fortune Emperor Palace’s disciples flew out from the Supreme Harmony Hall, and the leader was none other than Luo Yun. And following right behind Luo Yun was the purple-haired female disciple, Peng Xiao!

All of the other disciples waiting in the courtyard were surprised to see Peng Xiao fly out together with the Fortune Emperor Palace’s inner sect disciples group, but they all soon understood the reason. As a supreme godhead genius, Peng Xiao’s status was naturally different from them.

Almost all of the male disciples’ eyes were stuck on Peng Xiao, from awe to worship. Liu Qin and Fu Feiyu were no exception to this.

From the distance, Peng Xiao suddenly looked at Huang Xiaolong and nodded lightly.

Could that be considered as a greeting?

Many disciples noticed this little gesture and were astonished by it.

Liu Qin and Fu Feiyu also glanced in Huang Xiaolong’s direction, jealousy flickering across their eyes.

Moments later, Peng Xiao, Luo Yun, and other inner sect disciples descended on the square.

Luo Yun looked around the square and began with a smile, “Everyone is here. My name is Luo Yun, Junior Brothers, you can call me Senior Brother Luo Yun. I will be soon activating the transmission array to send everyone to the rankings competition venue today. Before that, I will announce the rankings competition’s rules.”

“In truth, the rankings competition’s rules are very simple. This is a spiritual fruit cultivated through a secret method of our Fortune Emperor Palace. It’s called Fortune Divine Fruit.” As Luo Yun said that, he took out a fruit and showed it to everyone as he went on, “Consuming this Fortune Divine Fruit not only can help raise one’s strength, but it also brings many other benefits. I will be giving each of you one Fortune Divine Fruit, and when all of you arrive at the competition venue, you can start snatching the fruit from other disciples. The more Fortune Divine Fruit you snatch, the higher will be your rank. On top of that, all the Fortune Divine Fruits that you would have managed to snatch will be rewarded to you.”
