"Betting treasure?"
"It's been a long time since there was gambling in Longcheng."
People of all tribes in the exhibition hall became interested, especially the aquatic creatures, who were eager to try it out, as if they wanted to participate too.
Gambling for treasures is a custom of the dragon race during their conquest of the worlds.
In order to encourage each other and to publicize the strength of themselves and their tribe, dragons occasionally gamble.
The initial gambling was very simple, for example, some dragons started to conquer or explore a place, and after the end, the dragons would take out the treasures they had obtained in the previous battle and compete. The better the treasures obtained, the more extra military merits they would get, which would also affect their future promotions and even rewards from their elders.
However, as the dragon clan became the master of all worlds, gambling on treasures changed from a positive meaning to a luxurious trend, and finally to a way to show off or even attack opponents.
Later gambling for treasures was simply a competition between two or more parties for treasures, and often had nothing to do with conquest and exploration.
Everyone just takes out their own treasure, and whoever has the best treasure will be the winner.
In the beginning, if you lose in gambling, you lose, and you won’t suffer much loss, at most your reputation will be damaged. But in later gambling, the loser has to pay a certain amount of holy blood or other treasures to the winner, the total value of which is about one tenth of his own treasure.
However, when the dragon race reached its peak, the rules of the treasure bet changed again. After the bet was completed, the winner would get the loser's treasure.
This results in gambling becoming a battlefield where the winner gains everything and the loser loses everything.
This kind of gambling is very exciting, but it causes huge conflicts and often intensifies the conflicts between the two sides.
The biggest gamble in history was between the dragons and the ancient monsters.
However, the dragon clan was defeated that year.
Although there is no conclusion until now, the most widely circulated saying is that the three treasures of the dragon clan were leaked in advance by a traitor, and the ancient demon defeated the upper treasure with the lower treasure, defeated the middle treasure with the upper treasure, and defeated the lower treasure with the middle treasure. In the end, he won with two wins and one loss, and obtained a supreme treasure left by the dragon clan's ancestor dragon and an ancestral treasure.
That treasure gambling incident dealt a heavy blow to the dragon clan. The dragon saints never participated in public treasure gambling again, so that later treasure gambling was only carried out among small groups.
So many years have passed since the incident, and the dragon clan no longer has the shadow of the past, but this custom has also been forgotten with the passage of time.
Lei Konghe's sudden mention aroused great interest among all the tribes present.
Ao Shan, the emperor who was in charge of assisting Fang Yun in this trade fair, coughed lightly and said, "Your Majesty Yue Longjue, the saints once said that gambling with treasures is a waste of time. If the dragon race wants to revive, they should not gamble with treasures."
"Oh? Is there any explicit decree in Longcheng prohibiting gambling?" Lei Konghe asked.
"No." Ao Shan answered helplessly.
"In that case, I have the right to propose a bet." Lei Konghe said.
Ao Shan had no choice but to keep silent.
Lei Konghe smiled and said, "To be honest, the reason why I proposed the bet is that Fang Yun and I have some family feuds and I have long disliked him. As for the second reason, I am not convinced. How can he, a mere fifth-level scholar, hold a trade fair here independently?"
Ao Shan immediately said: "The number of treasures in this trade fair is not as many as in normal trade fairs, but the quality is far superior. The worst ones are items such as longevity fruit and life-giving fruit, and the best ones are even semi-saint treasures."
Lei Konghe suddenly showed a surprised smile and said, "Since when has the Dragon City's trade fair been allowed to only have semi-saint treasures? I don't mind semi-saint treasures participating in the trade fair, but for one person to hold a trade fair alone and only bring out semi-saint treasures is too much of a disdain for us traders this time. Let me ask, which incarnation of His Majesty present here doesn't have a semi-saint treasure?"
A wolf barbarian semi-saint incarnation immediately said, "I don't have it! Because I am only the weakest of the three semi-saint incarnations that descended this time. My other two incarnations each hold a semi-saint treasure."
Everyone present laughed.
The aquatic creatures in charge of this trade fair suddenly became panicked. Ao Shan did not dare to offend Lei Konghe, the newly conferred Moon Dragon Duke, so he could only look towards the depths of the exhibition hall, towards where Fang Yun was, and cast a look for help.
Fang Yun walked out slowly.
"It's not that Fang doesn't allow gambling on treasures." Fang Yun appeared in front of everyone with a smile on his face.
The human race is the smallest in size among all races, but none of the races, big or small, present look down on Fang Yun.
These days, legends about Fang Yun began to spread, and there were even rumors that Fang Yun defeated the emperor Baili Jellyfish and Wei Ming, but both the ancient demon and the dragon clan seemed unwilling to reveal this matter, and no details were disclosed.
However, the fact that Fang Yun has been hunted by the entire demon world and yet remains at ease, and even held a trade fair in the Arctic Sky City, shows that he is extremely powerful.
Lei Konghe also laughed and said, "What are the conditions of Fang Xusheng?"
Fang Yun said: "Of course, since you said that you are betting with me because of a family feud, then you and I must swear an oath. Once the bet begins, no matter who wins or loses, you must not take the initiative to cause trouble for the other party, you must not provoke, and you must not secretly collude with the demon barbarians or ancient demons to harm me... No, to harm the other party."
When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized that it seemed that Lei Konghe proposed the bet not just for himself, but also for the ancient monster or the monster.
Lei Konghe nodded and said, "I agree with Fang Xusheng's conditions, but I am betting on the treasure myself, and I can only control myself. If I lose, I will never take the initiative to harm you."
"Yes, if I hurt your Lei family, you can harm me passively." Fang Yun said.
"But I can't let you hurt me. I can't fight back. There is no such thing in the world." Lei Konghe said.
Fang Yun said: "Okay, you agreed to the first one. Then, there is the second one. Since you are not satisfied with the semi-saint treasure, then the bet must be more valuable. However, no one wants to spread the news that they are carrying a treasure, so why don't we make a rule that everyone present must swear not to spread the bet process. If it is leaked, the heaven and earth will punish, including the incarnation and the original body."
The whole audience was in an uproar, but everyone immediately understood that someone was using Lei Konghe to explore Fang Yun's treasure. It was very likely that Fang Yun had a treasure that they needed or that had an impact on them.
Many semi-saint incarnations quickly figured out the whole story.
At this time, the Void Devourer used a harsh divine thought to transmit a voice: "Fang Yun, you are too young to know that the oaths taken by the semi-saint incarnations have nothing to do with the original body. Even if this incarnation of the saint takes a great oath, it will not affect the original body."
Fang Yun gave the Void Devourer a thankful look and said, "Is that so? That's a shame. It's not a loss to sacrifice only a semi-saint incarnation to deliver important information."
Fang Yun had already made his words clear, and even the dumbest person present understood the key. However, Lei Konghe and many incarnations of the demonic semi-saints pretended not to understand.
"We don't care about anything else. We only ask you whether you dare to bet on the treasure!" The arrogant incarnation of the Savage Wolf said loudly.
His words resonated with the public, as most people present didn't care about any information leaking out, they just wanted to see the lively gambling.
