When Zuo Ya said those words, chilling intent flashed across Yi Qiushuiâs beautiful eyes. How could she not know that Zuo Ya had malicious intent? She wanted to deliberately pour some dirty water onto the Wind Pavilion and Zhou Yuan.
Zuo Ya smiled complacently when she saw Yi Qiushuiâs icy cold eyes. âWhat? Yi Qiushui, you donât think itâs right? Who here doesnât know how strong senior brother Lu Xiao is? The Fire Pavilion dominated the four pavilions for many years. Why would the Wind Pavilion repeatedly win power after Zhou Yuan came?
âHeâs only at the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage, so how would he have that ability? What a joke! I donât believe there isnât something fishy about this!â
The surrounding young girls all wore pensive looks. The Wind Pavilionâs achievements during this period of time were indeed too amazing. Moreover, they were all achieved under the leaders.h.i.+p of an intermediate Divine Dwelling stage expert who had been a n.o.body. To some extent, this was indeed unbelievable.
Yi Dongâer flushed with anger seeing Zuo Ya smearing Zhou Yuan, and she was about to refute Zuo Yaâs words.
But Yi Qiushui stopped her and stared at Zuo Ya being overbearing. She said indifferently, âTwo grand elders were also present at the Heaven Flame Ritual. If you say Zhou Yuan cheated, are you also suggesting the two grand elders are senile?â
Zuo Yaâs expression changed abruptly. Yi Qiushuiâs counterattack was undoubtedly ruthless. She had directly tagged her with a label that not even the elders of her family could bear. After all, both Chi Jing and the sect master Xuan Kun were supreme beings in the Tianyuan Region.
The surrounding young boys and girls nodded one after another. They didnât know how Zhou Yuan was able to do it, but if he had cheated, how could he have fooled the two grand elders?
They were Law Domain experts!
Zuo Yaâs expression changed. She didnât dare to dwell on the topic anymore. âYi Qiushui, a sharp tongue doesnât change anything. The chief pavilion master battle is near, and at that time senior brother Lu Xiao will make Zhou Yuan understand what is a contemptible clown!
âWhen senior brother Lu Xiao becomes the chief pavilion master, we will take back all the advantages that your Wind Pavilion took!â
When talking about Lu Xiao, Zuo Yaâs eyes were filled with admiration, but at the mention of Zhou Yuan there was disdain and scorn again in her eyes.
In her opinion, Zhou Yuan wasnât worthy of being compared to Lu Xiao, and his previous wins were all because Lu Xiao hadnât made a move. Moreover, the Heaven Flame Ritual focused on Spirit power, which wasnât Lu Xiaoâs strong point.
Otherwise, if Lu Xiao had acted, how could Zhou Yuan have been able to take advantage of the situation and rise to fame?
Yi Qiushuiâs beautiful face was icy cold as she uttered, âThe results are not out yet; itâs too early for you to be happy.
âArenât you afraid of being embarra.s.sed by the result? Hasnât your Fire Pavilion learned enough lessons over the past few months?â
Zuo Ya refused to concede and argued, âThose previous wins are trivial. Yi Qiushui, you also know what the result of the chief pavilion master battle would be!â
Yi Qiushui clenched her hands tight inside her sleeves and gave her a cold-eyed stare.
âWhatâs the matter? You donât agree?â Zuo Ya smiled mockingly. âIf you donât agree, do you dare gamble with me? Letâs bet whether the chief pavilion master position will fall to senior brother Lu Xiao or to pavilion master Zhou Yuan?
âThe stake is simple: 3000 origin coins. Do you dare to bet?â
Many people gasped out loud. Three thousand origin coins wasnât a small amount, and even though Zuo Ya was the Fire Pavilionâs vice pavilion master, it was most likely more than half of her earnings over the years.
Facing the wager, Yi Qiushui simply snorted and pulled Yi Dongâer away, ignoring Zuo Ya.
Zuo Ya was clearly setting her up. If she lost the bet, Zuo Ya would use it as an excuse to slander the Wind Pavilion.
âIt seems that you also know that your pavilion master has no chance of winning. Compared with senior brother Lu Xiao, Zhou Yuan is just a firefly.â Zuo Ya smiled, but her words were unusually sharp.
âYi Qiushui, I advise you to persuade your pavilion master to admit defeat early. If he does, it wonât be so embarra.s.sing for him. I have heard that senior brother Lu Xiao is very unhappy with him and will most likely not hold back in the chief pavilion master battle.â
Yi Qiushuiâs footsteps halted, and her usual gentle face was covered with frost.
She couldnât accept Zuo Ya publicly insulting Zhou Yuan, even if she knew that Zuo Ya was deliberately trying to provoke her.
She was now the vice pavilion master of the Wind Pavilion and couldnât let Zuo Ya attack them in public.
She slowly turned around, coldly staring at Zuo Ya.
Zuo Ya didnât care and said mockingly, âWhat? Youâre going to bet?â
âIf you want to bet so much, I will join you, but your bet is really too small.â
Zuo Ya raised her long shapely brows with a hint of anger in her eyes, which she suppressed in the end and sneered, âThen what do you want?â
âTen thousand origin coins,â Yi Qiushui stated loud and clear as she stared directly at Zuo Ya. âSince you want to bet so much, bet more. If you donât have the guts, shut your mouth!â
Everyone was struck dumb. Ten thousand origin coins was no small amount. Even Yi Qiushui and Zuo Ya, who both had powerful backgrounds, would suffer greatly if they lost the bet.
Evidently, Yi Qiushui was enraged.
Zuo Yaâs face stiffened, and she didnât dare speak for a good while. If she were to lose 10,000 origin coins, would she still be able to continue to cultivate in the future?
Zuo Ya had only planned to provoke Yi Qiushui, but she hadnât expected her to be so crazy.
âWhat, you donât dare?â Yi Qiushui looked contemptuously at Zuo Ya.
Zuo Yaâs complexion alternated between blue and white. Looking at Yi Qiushuiâs contemptuous gaze, she was abnormally furious, but in the end she snorted, âSince you want to give me origin coins so much, how can I refuse?â
âTen thousand origin coins it is then!â
Although shocked by the large number of 10,000 origin coins, Zuo Ya felt that Yi Qiushui only said it out of anger. After all, she didnât believe Zhou Yuan, who was only at the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage, could win against Lu Xiao!
Those previous victories were undoubtedly ridiculous in the face of absolute strength.
âYi Qiushui, we all heard this bet. I hope you wonât deny it in the future. Otherwise, I will have to find elder Yi Yan to ask for it!â Zuo Ya said.
âYou have to remember it too. If you donât acknowledge the bet, Iâll also ask the elders of your Zuo family.â
Yi Qiushui pulled Yi Dongâer and turned away.
Zuo Ya snorted coldly before she left.
As they left, the young boys and girls burst into gasps of astonishment. Their bet would soon spread throughout the Tianyuan Region.
Yi Dongâer had also heard of Lu Xiaoâs reputation, so on the way home, she asked in a concerned voice, âBig sister, will brother Zhou Yuan win?â
Deep in thought, Yi Qiushui stroked Yi Dongâerâs head for a moment. Zhou Yuanâs confident face and gaze crossed her mind, so the corners of her red lips curved upwards into a beautiful smile, and she nodded.
âHe will certainly win! If he loses, your sister will have to sell herself to him and work for him to earn back the bet.â
âHehe, big sister, I think you would prefer to lose, then!â
âYou want a beating!â
