1296 I Won the Bet! (2/2)

Ye Xiao honestly shook his head and blandly said, ”I bet on it. Well, first, I have to risk something to play the game. There were a few questions in my head, which led my intention to your swords. As we both know now, the swords are the flaw of your Soul Separated Technique!”

Wu Fa's eyes flashed. ”Oh?”

Ye Xiao continued, ”When you retreated, I felt it weird. You were taking the upper position of the fight. It means when Yue Shuang and Yue Han joined the battle, you shouldn't need to give in. In fact, you could have killed me before you went back and stopped the eight figures trick. However, you did give me some time to rest. Isn't it unreasonable?”

Wu Fa coldly said, ”I wanted to play you around to death, didn't I? Isn't it the most favorite game for the stronger one to play the weaker like a cat playing a rat?”

”Maybe that's true if it was an ordinary fight. However, my purple qi was a bane to you. I don't think you dared to play the game of a stupid cat!” Ye Xiao's eyes were cold.

He said, ”I did think of the possibility, but I wasn't convinced… After that, you operated the Soul Separated Technique for the second time. It looked much more powerful than the first time. I guessed you were pushed to perform the technique the first time, and that is why it didn't look as powerful as the second time.

”When the two ladies and my disciple brothers joined the battle, you had to retreat, because your first performance could only deal with me alone. Is that correct? If you face the five of us with the seven phantoms you created in the first time, you would lose the fight.

”It is reasonable that you didn't do it well because you were forced to do it anyway.

”Am I right?” Ye Xiao asked.

Wu Fa's eyes were flickering, and he blandly said, ”Ignorant animal! How do you know the marvelousness of my great technique!”

Ye Xiao sneered, ”Stop the trash talk now. You casually operated the Soul Separated Technique because you had to do it, or you wouldn't have a chance to put me down. When you have to face the five of us, you hurriedly retreated and took a rest before you performed the technique again. That was when I was sure that you were forced to operate it for the first time!

”The second time, it was the complete Soul Separated Technique!”

Ye Xiao sounded confident.

Wu Fa stayed silent, and then humphed, ”What else?”

”There is one more question… Well, not a question. Just something weird! In either time, you always showed your swords in hands before you started to use the technique, in exactly the same posture. Aside from that, the swords didn't seem to be your real weapons… They were too thin to fight with!

”The color… They are not made from some ordinary metal.

”You are in an incomparable position in the world, who barely use weapons. If you have to use a sword, you will choose a divine weapon. The black sword you were using didn't have a beautiful shape, but it was definitely a great sword. Why did you use two gaudy yet useless swords in the end? The only explanation is that… the swords must be the key to your special technique.”

Wu Fa angrily said, ”Are you telling me you hit my swords only because of this bullsh*t theory?”

”That's right!” Ye Xiao nodded, ”To be honest, I made a bet on it. Well, I never knew I was that lucky. I won the game against the world's best cultivator!”

Wu Fa's face suddenly turned red, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

He was pissed.
