Chapter 58: You don't know, this young lady has a feud with lions?

  Nangong Xue disdainfully smoothed out the hair on her left shoulder, sneering: "Don't play with your tongue and make a mystery of it anymore. This princess wants to see what kind of treasure a useless person like you would choose - a useless stone."

  This woman still wants to cheat her, she didn't fall for it, now look at her hugging a useless rock, how is she going to get out of this!

  Nangong Xue's face was full of triumphant smiles, she adjusted her magnificent clothes and hat, glanced at her beautiful fingernails with a slight smile, and stood aside, ready to watch Ling Wushuang make a fool of himself.

  "Yes, cut it open and see what treasure it is!" The people around also followed suit, secretly thinking that Ling Wusuo was up to something, insisting that a piece of scrap iron ore was a treasure.

  "Could it be that Young Master Jiang is so certain? The thing in my hand is just a worthless rock, why don't we make a bet on it?" Ling Wusuo held the muddy grey stone in her hand, her clear eyes slightly raised, filled with harmless smiling intent.

  "What do you want to bet?" Nan Gong Xue's eyebrows furrowed, this detestable woman, what was she up to again.

  "Want to gamble again?" Yun Qingchen's whole body turned cold as soon as he heard the word "gamble", his hairs stood on end, and he quickly made a secret signal to Nan Gongxue, telling him not to act rashly. His imperial brother had already lost two hundred million taels of gold on this woman, and was still scrambling to raise funds these past few days. That's a mountain of glittering gold! He even staked his entire family fortune on it!

  He almost lost everything he had, this woman is a ruthless and merciless person!

  “Cloud Qīn Chén...” Ling Wu's eyes glanced lightly to the side, looking at Cloud Qīn Chén who was raising an eyebrow and winking, a layer of absolutely beautiful smile appeared on his elegant face, speaking in a soft and gentle tone, with a hint of inexplicable flavor, but it made Cloud Qīn Chén's scalp feel numb instantly, "Could it be that you also want to get involved?"

  "No, no, no, I'd better not get involved," Yun Qingci's whole body tensed up, and he quickly waved his hand. Who knew what kind of evil plan this woman was cooking up now? He didn't want to be a scapegoat.

  "Good!" Without noticing anything unusual about Yun Qingchen and the others, Jiang Yi readily agreed and asked in a deep voice, "What do you want to bet?"

  There are actually people who don't know life or death, and they dare to gamble with Jiang Yi. They didn't even investigate where he grew up since childhood. He had already lost 500,000 taels of silver, and this debt was stuck in his throat. This Ling Wushuang is simply looking for death!

  Ling Wushuang gazed at Jiang Yi, cradling the black mudstone in his hand, weighing it thoughtfully, and smiled with an air of harmless innocence, "Five hundred thousand taels of silver, we'll bet on this stone - is it a worthless rock or a treasure?"

  "Is this still worth betting on?"

  The people around burst into laughter. This is obviously a discarded piece of mudstone! Ling Wu Shuang, have you gone mad?!

  Ling Wu's smile was faint as he grasped the grey stone in his hand, and seemingly casually said, "I bet this is a treasure even more precious than Tian Jing copper ore."

  Jiang Yi secretly smiled to himself, but having been tricked once before, he became cautious. What was this Ling Wu Suo thinking of doing? He lowered his head and thought for a long time, then carefully observed the mudstone in her hand again, looking at it back and forth several times before finally being certain.

  Jiang Yi's eyes sank, and he said affirmatively: "Alright, 500,000 taels of silver, I'll bet with you. This is a worthless stone!"

  This woman must be holding a useless tile, making a big show in front of so many people, trying to make him back down and lose face! In the casino, with a bad hand, there are not many chances of winning, just some petty tricks. Being set up by this woman once is enough, Jiang Yi won't fall for it again.

  Nangong Xue stroked her hair with a pleased expression, placed a few fingers in front of her lips, and smiled coyly: "Actually, we'll invite a few of the best instrument masters from Donglin to confirm it, so that you won't accuse us of cheating you later and try to renege on the deal, which wouldn't be good."

  So many people watching Ling Wu Su lose, thinking about it makes Nan Gong Xue feel refreshed all over.

  "No need" Ling Wu Xiang tossed his hand lightly and then grasped it back into his palm with a slapping sound, "It can be confirmed now".

  "How arrogant!" Jiang Yi coldly snorted, "Now that things have come to this point, I'd like to see how you can still put on a strong front"

  This woman swindled him out of 500,000 taels of silver, and now she's paying it all back in full!

  Ling Wushuang's clear eyes sparkled with a hint of a smile, but suddenly her face darkened, and she grasped the muddy stone hand, clenching her fist tightly.

  "Crack!"

  A crisp sound, the hard surface of the mud-gray stone, rapidly cracked into spider web-like fissures, and the mud-gray dropped off with a plop.

  "So, open your dog eyes wide and take a good look!" Ling Wu Shuang's cold voice fell, and with a flick of his hand, the surface of the mud-covered stone began to shed its skin-like layers, revealing a dazzling purple light that flowed out, momentarily blinding everyone!

  "What thing" everyone's heart was greatly shocked, their eyes wide with fear, straining to see clearly what Ling Wu Shuang held in his hand.

  "What" Jiang Yi's head was slightly tilted back, and he couldn't help but shiver, a bad premonition rising in his heart.

  After a while, the purple light slowly dissipated, and everyone looked intently. At this time, what was in Ling Wu's hand was no longer that broken and abandoned mud-gray stone. Instead, they saw a palm-sized stone, its surface wrapped in a layer of transparent thin film. Inside, a faint purple light mixed with golden sand-like particles seemed to be flowing and shining like purple gold.

  "Amethystine sand! It's actually amethystine sand!"

  One person let out a loud shriek, their eyes wide as cow's, staring fixedly at the thing in Ling Wusuo's hand, their eyeballs almost popping out.

  "What is Zi Jin Sha?"

  Many people around were experts in the field of artifacts and some even loved various precious stones as if their lives depended on it. As soon as they heard "Purple Gold Sand", their eyes turned red with excitement, and they exclaimed loudly. If the person in front wasn't Ling Wu Xuan, this small jinx star, this thing would have been snatched up by the royal nobles!

  What is Zi Jin Sand?

  A rare and precious ore, the only soft gold in existence today, with a degree of flexibility that can be pulled as thin as spider silk or cow hair, but with a sharpness that can easily cut through Xuan Tie.

  The town's treasure of Xilan, the Ziwei soft sword, was only mixed with a piece the size of an egg when it was cast, but in Ling Wushuang's hand, there was actually a piece as big as his palm, several times larger!

  Waste rock? Who the hell said this was waste rock?! This is a treasure worth at least 500,000 taels of gold and 5,000,000 taels of silver, it's priceless! Until now, no one has ever heard of it, except for that small piece found in Xiluo Country, who else could have it?!

  What a pity! They've been walking around this shop for so long and yet they still couldn't get their hands on such a treasure.

  "Amethyst gold sand!" The shopkeeper, after clearly seeing what was in Ling Wu's hand, regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. He suddenly pounded his chest and stamped his feet, with tears welling up in his eyes. Such a large piece of amethyst gold sand, he had actually sold it for just 100 taels of silver!

  Unexpectedly, a piece of fine iron ore and corner stone would give birth to such a treasure, took the fine iron but didn't discover this real treasure, picked up sesame seeds but lost the watermelon.

  "You——you——" Yun Qingchen's face was even more attractive, his words were incoherent, and the hand holding the folding fan was trembling with anger. His veins bulged out, and he glared at the shopkeeper, saying word by word, gritting his teeth: "It's all your doing."

  He said, how could Ling Wushuang be a master of acknowledging pitfalls?

  At this time, Yun Qingchen had the urge to hit the wall. Such a large piece of purple gold sand was placed in his shop for several years without being discovered. Today, it was bought by Ling Wushuang for 100 taels of silver. To say nothing of taking the entire ore from this shop, even if he used ten shops like this one, he wouldn't exchange them for this piece of purple gold sand!

  But something that has already fallen into Ling Wu's hands, you want her to spit it out, what's the difference between this and seeking death?

  From now on, I must stay far away from Ling Wu Shuang, the farther the better, avoid her as much as possible. Every time I see her, I'll be unlucky once!

  "Ling Wushuang, you, you did it on purpose!" Nan Gongxue didn't know what Zijinsha was, but judging from everyone's expression, she knew it must be a good treasure. Suddenly, she got angry and jumped up, hateful, hateful, this woman had deliberately deceived her!

  "That's right, I did it on purpose" Ling Wushuang raised an eyebrow and smiled, admitting it quite frankly. He then shrugged his shoulders and chuckled: "However, I didn't force you"

  Ling Wusong's spiritual power had grown to an abnormal degree, and through the stone skin, although he couldn't determine what was inside, he could sense that the aura in this muddy gray stone was not ordinary, and it must contain a treasure.

  "You!" Nangong Xue didn't expect Ling Wusuo to actually admit it, and was left speechless with a red face, not knowing how to refute.

  The Ling family disciples around, suddenly delighted, the Miss Wú Shuāng was really too sinister, using Yun Cai Shi Keng Nan Gong Xue fifty million two, and cheated Qi Shi Pu a piece of value linked city's Zi Jin Sha, this is not enough, also gambled on Jiang Yi fifty million two, however, more absolutely is, you just can't find any fault.

  "It's like that, no one forced the eight princesses to do so, they themselves insisted on seeing what Ling Wushuang held in his hand, the so-called 'waste stone', now it's really a treasure, who can blame?"

  "Heavens! I never thought that this abandoned mudstone would have such a treasure!"

  "It's hard to imagine how Ling Wu Shuang knew this, does she have X-ray vision or something?"

  Everyone was chattering excitedly, and many people were rubbing their palms together in anticipation. What a treasure trove this is! If they could just touch it once, they would have no regrets for the rest of their lives.

  Ling Wushuang's red lips curled up, and she put away the purple sandstone in her hand, saying with a smile: "Jiang Yi, if you lose, don't forget to send 500,000 taels of silver to the Ling family. If I have to come personally, it won't be too good."

  At this time, everyone suddenly realized that Jiang Yi's gaze was fixed on the thing in Ling Wusong's hand, his eyes were greedy, and he didn't say a word from start to finish. It wasn't until Ling Wusong wanted to put away the Zi Jin Sha that Jiang Yi came back to his senses.

  "Five hundred thousand taels of silver? Ling Wusuo, being a person shouldn't be greedy to the extreme." Jiang Yi's face floated with an eerie smile, his sleeve gently swept, and he spoke lightly: "Put down the purple gold sand in your hand, you can leave, this young master will spare your life today."

  Amethyst sand! Who would have thought that under the muddy grey stone skin, it actually wraps around amethyst sand!

  He has always wanted to forge a soft sword. With this thing, he can forge a better weapon than Xiling's Town Treasure, the Ziwei Soft Sword!

  Under the huge temptation of such a rare treasure as Zijinsha, Jiang Yi couldn't even pretend to be decent on the surface. For a moment, he didn't care about his reputation and directly exposed his fox tail.

  "What does this mean?" As soon as the crowd heard these words, they were amused by Jiang Yi's words. Isn't this too shameless? The meaning of these words is that not only does Jiang Yi want to welch on the debt, but also with this tone, if Ling Wushuang doesn't give it to him today, he will kill someone and seize the treasure!

  "Oh?" Ling Wu's eyebrows slightly raised, seemingly surprised, but his tone was exceptionally cold, "You want to rob me?"

  "How shameless can you be? I never thought that the young master of the Jiang family would have such a character."

  "You just don't understand the principle of admitting defeat when you lose a gamble"

  "Cut the nonsense!" Jiang Yi heard the mocking voices around him, his face turned somewhat dark. However, for the treasure in Ling Wushuang's hand, he couldn't care about that much at this moment. He gritted his teeth and said: "Ling Wushuang, you're a useless person, having this piece of precious ore is also useless to you. Moreover, you've deceived me multiple times, I didn't kill you, it's already leniency. Now, I'll give you 100,000 taels of silver, hand over the purple gold sand to me, and you'd better know when to stop, don't be ungrateful!"

  He's just a worthless person, he wants to rob her and it would be fine, being able to give her 100,000 taels of silver is already giving face to the Ling family, for this piece of purple gold sand, he can't care about that much, so he had to use extreme measures.

  Upon hearing Jiang Yi's condescending tone, the Ling family disciples were furious and angrily exclaimed: "Jiang Yi, I've seen many shameless people before, but none as shameless as you. You have disgraced not only our Ling family, but also the other three major families."

  This guy is even more shameless than Li Tianyi!

  Yun Qingchen couldn't help but cover his forehead with his hand, secretly wiping away a cold sweat for Jiang Yi. No one would understand the emotions he was feeling right now, having narrowly escaped being taken advantage of by Ling Wushuang once again.

  "Is that so? Then I should thank your ancestors for eight generations, all of them are so noble and generous." Ling Wushuang's words, neither light nor heavy, made the people around her burst into laughter. This thank you was said with too much sarcasm.

  Jiang Yi's face suddenly sank, and before he could respond, in the blink of an eye, the Zi Jin Sha had vanished into thin air. He heard her faintly laugh, "What if I don't give it to you?"

  "Don't blame me for being impolite then!" Seeing the Zi Jin Sha fly away, Jiang Yi's tone suddenly turned harsh and he took a step forward, shouting: "Ling Wu Shuang, you don't know how to behave, it's you who forced me to take action"

  At the words, the people around immediately dispersed in a hurry. Ling Wu Shuang, this little ancestor, was about to take action, and even Sword Saint dared not to rush forward. If they didn't hide far away, they would be blown up without leaving any residue!

  "Hey, slow down!" Yun Qingchen hastily stepped forward, but with a stiff upper lip, walked to Ling Wushuang's front, beaming with smiles, and suggested, "If you want to fight, this place isn't spacious enough, why don't you go outside?"

  He had heard that Ling Wushuang, this violent guy, could even blast the entire gate of the Tianjing Copper Mine in the Protectorate with one hand, so how could this small shop withstand such a toss?

  "It depends on what you're capable of." Ling Wusuo said coldly, and suddenly a surge of mysterious energy burst out from his body. His figure flashed, and he vanished into thin air.

  Jiang Yi was stunned, somewhat surprised by the pressure of High-Grade Tian Xuan! Ling Wu Shuang's entire aura was actually that of an eighth-grade High-Grade Tian Xuan. Wasn't it said that she was a waste? Or was there something else he didn't know about?

  "Eight Heavenly Xuan, my heavens, it's only been a few days and she's already advanced again!" The people around her couldn't help but stare, this speed was so violently distorted.

  "Still want to run?" However, at this point, Jiang Yi couldn't afford to think much. With a sudden burst of speed, he followed the figure and chased out of the gate.

  Yun Qingchen finally let out a slight sigh of relief, not knowing whether to cry or laugh. Although he had lost a piece of purple gold sand, he had at least managed to get rid of this little ancestor.

  The stone pavement outside was originally a bustling street, but at this time, an area of several meters wide had been cleared out.

  Jiang Yi stood in front of Ling Wu Shuang, a cold laugh escaping his lips as he spoke with some malice: "I didn't know that the trash of the Ling family had gained such strength. However, even if you have, you still must die, and what's more, I won't even need to personally take action!"

  Who would have thought that Ling Wushuang had such a terrifying talent, it must be strangled! Today, he is also just right for the Jiang family to get rid of this great calamity!

  "Ah——"

  Jiang Yi's head shook violently as he let out a loud roar, his entire body bursting forth with a turbulent surge of dark energy!

  "Roar!"

  A thunderous roar accompanied the massive body, like a raging fire, stepping on clouds and coming forth. The huge golden claws tore through the deep yellow mysterious energy, from beside Jiang Yi's side, sweeping out and revealing its shape.

  Three meters tall, eyes as big as a basin, strong like an ox, limbs agile, sharp red long claws on the ground, whole body covered with flame-like color long hair, neck mane hanging down to the ground, huge skull, looking up at the sky and letting out a loud roar, shocking people around, unable to hold back, whole body trembling.

  "The Ninth-Order Fire Cloud Evil Lion!"

  The people around him let out a sudden cry of surprise. Jiang Yi's strength, even if he was only a mid-tier Tian Xuan, with his cunning methods, should be able to barely hold his own against Ling Wu Shuang. However, adding in the nine-stage peak Fire Cloud Evil Lion, comparable to the strongest attacking system Xuan beast, the Golden Lion, the situation immediately took a turn for the worse.

  Unless it's a Sacred Domain Mystic Beast or a Saint Realm expert, who can be the opponent of Huoyun Evil Lion? Ling Wusuo is probably really done for today!

  "The strong meet the stronger, this is going to be a good show"

  "Look at Ling Wu Shuang still being so arrogant, unless she has already reached the level of a Saint, otherwise, she can only be swallowed by Huo Yun Xie Shi in one mouth."

  Around, there are those who fear Ling Wushuang, those who are dissatisfied, and even more who are jealous. Seeing Jiang Yi's advantageous situation, they immediately turn around and mock him. Nan Gongxue is even more pleased, loudly saying: "Jiang Yi gege, severely teach this woman a lesson for me!"

  "Ling Wushuang, didn't think so, huh? Without me having to lift a finger, you're going to die today!" Jiang Yi laughed maniacally towards the sky. "If you don't drink the toast, you'll be forced to drink the penalty wine! Now, even if you hand over the Zi Jin Sha, it's too late!"

  Kill Ling Wushuang, and this purple gold sand will be his?

  Who would have thought that Ling Wushuang's red lips would curve slightly, standing calmly and mysteriously saying, "Don't you know, I, this lady, have a grudge against the lion?"

  Others may not understand the meaning of this sentence, but Yun Qingcheng beside him was crystal clear!

  Suddenly, I thought of it in the royal arena. This lady, she actually plucked a golden lion with her bare hands and turned it into a wild mountain chicken. Although now, it's just a sixth-order golden lion, but he looked at Jiang Yi's ninth-order peak fire cloud evil lion, how is it so mysterious?

  Digression

  I was wrong, I regret it, too tired, slept until now, looked at the time, rolled out of bed and updated, waaah, my mistake, two updates today, start writing immediately! The word count will definitely satisfy everyone ~o (>_<)
