Chapter 172.1: Laugh Until the End (2/2)

It smashed into the rock wall behind it.

“Grrrr!” The wolf was infuriated and began to attack even more fiercely. It was a wolf that had gone through countless battles in the course of its life after all, so a little lady who had never fought before like Tang Doudou had no way of beating it once it got serious.

After a couple trading of blows, Tang Doudou was wounded all over and looked very wretched.

If things kept on going like this, defeat was inevitable.

Far away, the mysterious person retrieved his gaze and laughed ‘jeje’ as he asked the immobilized Mu Ye, “Who do you think will win?”

Mu Ye kept his eyes fixated worriedly on the situation over there. When the mysterious person asked this question, the wolf over there had started attacking again. Its sharp claws swept across Tang Doudou’s shoulder, almost ripping it off.

When he didn’t speak, the mysterious person spoke again. “Why don’t we make a bet? If you win, I’ll let you two go. If you lose… Jeje, then why don’t you both go feed the wolves?”

Mu Ye still didn’t speak.

However, the mysterious person didn’t get angry and simply continued, “Could it be that you want to watch her die?”

Mu Ye turned around. “What bet?”

“Bet on whether she’ll win or the wolf will win!” The mysterious person’s smile was strange. Mu Ye immediately turned his head away again. Wasn’t this not much different from wanting Tang Doudou to die?

The mysterious person knew what he was thinking and said, “Heehee, we’re only betting on who wins, not who dies.”

Mu Ye looked at Tang Doudou who was struggling to dodge the wolf’s swipes. “I bet on her winning.”

“Looks like you’re quite confident in her!”

“Does what you said count?”

“Of course, a nobleman’s word is his bond. As long as she wins, I promise to peacefully let you two go.” Though the mysterious person said this straightforwardly, Mu Ye still sensed that there was a hidden plot.

“Swear it!” He looked coldly toward the mysterious person.

The mysterious person’s facial color darkened. “You don’t trust me?”

“Is there a single person amongst your group that’s trustworthy?”

“Fine, fine, fine!” The mysterious person lifted his left hand and pointed four fingers towards the sky as he swore, “I, Shen Moru, swears to the Heavens that if a single of the earlier words is false, let the five elements turn against me and condemn me to eternal damnation!”

Mu Ye only dropped the subject after hearing this serious vow. He knew a bit about these people and knew that they feared vows quite a lot. Now that this problem had been addressed, he turned to continue watching Tang Doudou fight with that wolf.
