556 Waiting for the Big Fish to Take the Bai (1/2)
With hands holding the Dragon Void, Liu Chunyi eagerly wanted Chen Xiaobei to take it. Bewildered, the crowd could not believe the scene that they were witnessing. The Dragon Void was the most prized treasure of the Liu Family and everyone knew that! It was actually easier for the crowd to believe that Liu Chunyi offered his private part to Chen Xiaobei rather than the sword.
Immediately, the way the crowd looked at Chen Xiaobei changed once again – it changed from admiration and idolatry to reverence and doubt! Fear crept out of nowhere and invaded the crowd. Everyone was trying to guess Chen Xiaobei's real identity but none of them had an answer for it. The only thing that they knew was that Chen Xiaobei was an alchemist that deserved Liu Chunyi's massive respect!
As expected, Chen Xiaobei's reputation soared again. Even Li Xiang was surprised by the turn of events, after transforming back to human form. At that moment, he was certain that working with Chen Xiaobei was definitely a wise move!
Everyone was witnessing that moment with their eyes wide open, as Chen Xiaobei took the sword with one hand. With a smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei said calmly, ”Hehe… I did not expect you to willingly surrender most prized possession! I shall give you the pill to save your sister's life!”
Promptly, Chen Xiaobei reached into his pocket and tapped on his cellphone blindly. He retrieved his last Taiyi Life Enhancement Pill and handed it to Liu Chunyi.
”Thank you, Master Chen! Thank you so much…”
With an excited look, Liu Chunyi showed his gratitude to Chen Xiaobei.
”Alright, saving your sister's life should be your priority now! Go now.”
Chen Xiaobei waved his hand. Seemingly, a corner of his mouth was raised to the extent that it looked like he was smiling.
”Let's go!”
With his hand waving at his followers, Liu Chunyi used his signature movement skill and left Bei Xuan Faction like a phantom. Immediately, nine elders followed closely behind him. The rest of the three hundred people took their leave as well. In the end, only Feng Qingyang, Li Xiang, and Li Yunlin remained at Bei Xuan Faction.
”Sifu, are you going to rest here or return home tonight?”
”There's no need to rush. I just threw a bait and I want to know who is going to take it.”
All the Jianghu folk around Chen Xiaoei were extremely experienced in matters like these. Clearly, they had already figured out his motive.
”Earlier, I noticed that you tried to drive a wedge between the nine elders and Liu Chunyi. Are you trying to test the nine elders' loyalty towards the Liu Family?” Li Xiang asked.
”That's right.”
”I don't think their loyalty can be shaken that easily… Even if your words managed to drive the nine elders apart from the Liu Family, I don't think they will show it that early!” Feng Qingyang said with a frown. Li Yunlin nodded to indicated that he agreed with Feng Qingyang's point of view.
”I'm not too sure about it as well. I just want to try my luck as I believe that I'm quite a lucky guy.”
Having to have a great boost to his luck not too long ago, this was the best time for Chen Xiaobei to use his luck. Around ten minutes later, the Puzzle Flag in Feng Qingyang's hand vibrated lightly.
”Sifu, someone one is standing outside the Puzzle Formation. That should be the 'fish' that you are waiting for!” said Feng Qingyang, visibly stunned.
”Bring him here since you know he is the fish that I'm waiting for.”
”This is just like magic!”
Li Xiang and Li Yunlin were surprised. They even started to doubt that Chen Xiaobei was a deity that possessed the ability to predict the future! Soon, Feng Qingyang came back with an old man in his sixties following behind him. With a sword in his hand, the old man looked really energetic and a dominant aura surrounded him.
Ding!
