Chapter 2492: Trial of Blood! (1/2)
Huang Xiaolong merely chuckled softly in response, “You don’t have to worry about me. Why don’t you prepare to take out the two holy pills you put on the line?” As soon as he spoke, he turned around and entered the chamber of commerce.
Dou Rui could only chuckle in amusement when he saw Huang Xiaolong’s reaction.
Instead of entering, he returned to the Devil Palace’s branch with Xiao Lengxue. As soon as they returned, they looked for the main palace master to acknowledge their bet.
As for Zhang Yihui, he returned happily to look for someone to sign on his blood contract.
When Zhang Yihui saw Duan Xuan and reported to him about his bet with Huang Xiaolong, Duan Xuan roared with laughter. “Good job! You did well this time. Yihui, since you managed to earn two Star Transferring Holy Pills for the holy gate, I’ll reward you with a hundred thousand contribution points!”
A hundred thousand contribution points was a reward no one had ever seen in the Ancient Emperor Holy Gate.
Duan Xuan clapped Zhang Yihui’s shoulders happily and caused Zhang Yihui’s bone to turn soft.
In an instant, Duan Xuan signed his name on the blood contract. He didn’t keep it low-key at all as his name was stamped heavily in the middle of the contract.
Like Zhang Yihui, those who returned to their factions with the contract were rewarded heavily by their patriarchs.
Without exception, everyone signed their names on the blood contract.
When Li Chen and the other received news about the bet, they quickly reported to Tyrant Chu.
As soon as he heard the report, Tyrant Chu felt the world spinning around him.
That was a hundred holy pills they were talking about! Was his disciple going to lose a hundred holy pills just like that?! The blow was comparable to someone stabbing him a hundred times through the heart.
“Where’s that little b*stard?!” Tyrant Chu raged and this was the first time had ever lost his cool in front of the members of the Holy Heavens.
Li Chen quickly reported, “Junior Brother Huang is currently at the Knowledge Singularity Chamber of Commerce. They are selling a piece of Blood Devil Holy Spiritual Stone that they managed to obtain from the Furtive Lands in the Ghost Devil City. With Junior Brother Huang’s interest in the item, he will probably bring it back.”
Tyrant Chu’s anger smashed through the roof when he heard what Li Chen said. “How is he still in the mood to buy a damn rock?!” He turned to Shi Feng and ordered, “Bring that brat back right now!”
Upon feeling the ‘murderous’ aura around Tyrant Chu’s body, Shi Feng didn’t dare to hesitate as he left immediately.
Li Chen couldn’t help but rejoice in his heart when he saw the Primal Ancestor’s reaction.
By the time Shi Feng arrived at the Knowledge Singularity Chamber of Commerce, Huang Xiaolong was standing before the Blood Devil Holy Spiritual Stone. Complicated emotions filled his mind when he saw Huang Xiaolong.
As they saw Shi Feng, Chen Yi and the others greeted him respectfully.
“Your Highness!” Shi Feng rushed over to Huang Xiaolong and called out hastily.
“Hall Master Shi Feng, you’re here!” Even though he greeted Shi Feng, his gaze never left the stone.
With anxiety eating at his heart, Shi Feng stuttered, “Your Highness, Lord Tyrant Chu has requested for you to return immediately.”
“Return immediately?” Huang Xiaolong didn’t seem to be the least bit worried.
“That’s right! Lord Chu has ordered for you to return right now!” After thinking for a second, he continued, “His Highness Li Chen has already reported your bet to Lord Chu. The lord is fuming right now….”
