Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 91: Betting with the devil

Views:

The girl Wutong and the middle-aged miner were extremely wary of Su Yun, but Su Yun had no idea that he was the mastermind behind the scenes. He just had to pretend to be an envoy. If it weren't for the "coercion" of Monk Tu Ming, he would not have visited the robbery factory at night to "investigate the case."

—He doesn’t even know what case he is investigating!

He never thought that he would meet the human demon Wutong and the real envoy here.

All this was premeditated by the girl Wutong and the miner, but it was pure coincidence for Su Yun.

He was just a country boy who came to the city for the first time. At most, he was a little cunning. How could he be so cunning

"I am the weakest among the four, but they all seem to think I am the strongest, the most sinister, the worst, and the one they fear the most."

He had a headache: "I just want to gain a foothold in Shuofang and let my second brother and younger brothers and sisters go to school..."

Su Yun calmed himself down, still feeling a little guilty, and tried to hold on to his mentality, not letting it collapse. He asked in an unfathomable manner, "So what else has the envoy found out during this period of time?"

The middle-aged miner glanced at the girl Wutong and Jiao Shuao, and Su Yun said with a stiff face: "There are no outsiders here, and even if there are, they can't escape from my grasp, just tell me."

The girl Wutong glanced at him charmingly, feeling shy, and said with a smile: "I can't escape from your palm?"

Su Yun was as steady as Mr. Gou and turned a deaf ear to everything.

The middle-aged miner said, "The Tong family tried to find the God King sealed in the ash in this underground ash city. They calculated the ash mountain where the God King was. Unexpectedly, the miners dug up a building from the modern era in the ash mountain!"

Su Yun still had an unfathomable look on his face, while the girl Wutong looked bewildered. The ashes were the ashes of the previous world, so how could there be buildings from the current era among the ashes

How could the buildings of today's era appear in the ashes

Jiao Shuao on the side stared at Su Yun with a dark face. The new dragon tooth sword forged by the poisonous fangs in his mouth stammered in the blood and energy. It seemed that he had no interest in anything else but Su Yun.

“It’s a very odd building.”

The middle-aged miner walked along the central avenue towards Jiehui Mountain and said, "I have never seen a building like this. Since the Tong family dug there, dozens of spiritualists have died, and even some great masters at the Yuandong and Liyuan realms have not been able to open this building!"

Su Yun still had an unfathomable look, but he was wondering in his heart: "I know the Yuandong realm, but what is the Liyuan realm? And what is the Tianxiang realm he just mentioned?"

He had just entered the official school and studied with Mr. Yehu in his childhood. No one had ever told him how the realms were divided.

He was confused, but didn't dare to ask more questions.

After all, he is a scholar of Tiandao Academy and an imperial envoy of the Great Emperor. How could he not even know how the realms are arranged

"Originally, the Tong family couldn't even open the Thirty-Six Palaces, but this time the official school was on holiday, so they invited a teacher who teaches architecture from the Imperial College in the Western Capital!"

The middle-aged miner said in a deep voice: "It is rumored that the teacher is the disciple of Tianshi Loubanlou. He has a very high level of attainment. After coming here, he cracked the thirty-six halls and opened the seals of the thirty-six halls! Now, this person is opening the central hall in Jiehui Mountain for the Tong family. There is a high possibility that there is a sealed Jiehui God King in the central hall! It was there that the contemporary building was discovered."

At the end of the Central Avenue is the towering Jiehui Mountain.

The miners from the Jie Hui Factory had already mined into the interior of the mountain. After walking a few steps through the rocky area, they saw that the ground had become flat. It turned out to be a road that the miners had dug out outside the palace in the center of the city.

And the further you go inside, the smoother it becomes.

Suddenly, the front opened up and was extremely vast, covering an area of about a hundred acres. Many miners were carving the ash here with axes and chisels. They knocked off pieces of the ash and gradually carved giant pieces of black stone into neat pieces, like black coffins.

Here, there are actually thousands of robbery ash monsters, sealed in the robbery ashes, just like thousands of black sarcophagi standing in the square!

Even Su Yun felt a little horrified by this scene!

"These calamity monsters... What on earth do the Tong family want to do by digging these calamity monsters?"

Su Yun couldn't help but ask, "Since the Jiehui monsters are so dangerous, why did the Tong family clear them out? Where did they transport them to?"

The middle-aged miner shook his head and said, "The Tong family has only recently started transporting the black coffins of the Gray Robbery Monster. I don't know where they are transporting them to."

Su Yun looked at the tall and majestic Jiehui monsters and couldn't help feeling a little scared. If these Jiehui monsters were released, the entire Jiehui factory would be wiped out in an instant!

If the gray monster rushes into the city, it will cause a huge disaster!

He shuddered and whispered, "What exactly do the Tong family want to do? Master Tu Ming lived near the Jiehui Factory before. Could it be that he also noticed something?"

Beside him, the girl Wutong quietly looked at these sealed gray monsters, her eyes flashing, and the corners of her mouth curved slightly, forming a charming smile.

However, in the eyes of others, she was still a short, fat, dark and strong male miner, and she didn't look like a delicate girl in red at all.

Su Yun caught a glimpse of her smile, and his heart tightened. He whispered, "If you dare to be so presumptuous, don't blame me for not considering the sympathy of my classmates!"

The young girl Wutong chuckled, "How dare you? Scholar Su Yun, do you think I need to be so? What is the purpose of someone digging out these robbery ash monsters? Is it just to display them for beauty?"

She sneered and said, "I came here this time to really release these calamity monsters to kill people and create chaos. By absorbing the resentment and power of countless dead lives, I will grow rapidly! But now it seems that I don't need to do it."

Su Yun was stunned, looking at the black coffins.

The voice of the girl Wutong rang in his ears: "You think the human demon is too evil. People just like to pile bad things on the human demon, but in fact, the human demon has not done many bad things. Those killings are actually just caused by people's ambitions. The human demon enjoys the results while bearing the infamy."

Su Yun looked at her deeply and said, "I won't be bewitched by you."

The girl Wutong sneered: "Then Mr. Su, I want to make a bet with you."

Su Yun frowned and asked, "What are you betting on?"

"I'm betting with you. If I don't do anything and don't deceive anyone, within half a year, there will be a great turmoil and catastrophe in Shuofang. Someone will do something worse than me, the human demon!"

The girl Wutong's voice was filled with chill, completely different from the warmth and enthusiasm brought by her red dress. She said coldly, "Someone will take advantage of this opportunity, borrow the bones of countless people, make himself famous, gain supreme prestige, and march into the Eastern Capital to seize the throne! Mr. Su, do you want to gamble with me, a heinous demon, on the good and evil of human nature?"

Su Yun clenched his fists and whispered, "What's the bet?"

The girl Wutong's eyes flickered as she said, "The bet is, if I win, you owe me a life. If I fall into your hands, you can't kill me."

Su Yun wondered, what was this requirement

This bet clearly shows that the girl Wutong believes that there is a possibility that she will fall into Su Yun's hands, or even die in Su Yun's hands, so she uses this bet to beg him for mercy!

But last time in the Ten Brocade Embroidered Painting, Su Yun had fought with the girl Wutong. That battle left a huge shadow on him, and the feeling of powerlessness at that time still made him shudder.

Now listening to what the young girl Wutong said, it seems that she has a considerable psychological trauma!

It seemed as if this human demon was somewhat timid towards him and did not dare to confront him head on.

"This woman caused me a great psychological trauma, forcing me to practice diligently and try to cultivate a unified martial arts method. Unexpectedly, I was frightened by her and she was also frightened by me."

Su Yun had an extremely absurd feeling. His confidence, which had been hit by the girl Wutong, recovered rapidly. He thought to himself, "It turns out that in my heart, I am so powerful."

"Okay, I'll bet with you."

Su Yun was in high spirits, even though his face was covered with ashes, he could not hide it, and said: "But this bet is mutual. If I win, you can't kill me if I fall into your hands in the future."

The young girl Wutong was also slightly startled: "Why would he take this opportunity to beg me for mercy? Does he think that I am his equal and he is not sure he can beat me?"

She was somewhat happy in her heart: "We have half a year to decide the outcome of this bet. He will not attack me again within half a year. After half a year, I am afraid that my Soul Condensation Realm will have been cultivated to the fifth or even sixth level. In addition, there will be unrest in Shuofang, which will further enhance my strength! Even if he has that terrible sword technique, it will be easy for me to kill him! But..."

She was a little flustered again. "However, he was so generous to give up half a year. Could it be that he was confident enough that I couldn't catch up with him in the next six months? Is he really that powerful?"

She couldn't help but recall Su Yun's sword, that terrifying sword, the sword that woke her up from her nightmare!

Her real purpose was to delay for half a year.

The pressure Su Yun put on her was too great, but even if Su Yun agreed to give her half a year, she did not have enough confidence to break Su Yun's sword.

Su Yun didn't know that she had thought so much. He just wanted to ensure safety for half a year.

"Master Su, since we are not enemies for half a year, maybe we can be friends."

The girl Wutong chose her words carefully, so as not to anger him and leave him with a bad impression. She chose her words carefully and said, "As a friend, I want to warn you one thing: no matter how you gamble, never gamble on human nature. Otherwise, you will lose miserably!"

Su Yun was slightly startled and looked at her deeply.

Jiao Shuao was puzzled the whole time while the whole village was having dinner, thinking: "Why is Senior Wutong so polite to this kid? This kid has cut off my sword many times, why should I be polite to him? I can just stab him straight in the heart!"

In his heart, the girl Wutong is a real dragon, and no one can change his opinion.

Because what Wutong taught him was the genuine "Sixteen Chapters of True Dragon", there was absolutely no falsehood!

At this moment, someone shouted, "Hurry up and get these black coffins loaded onto trucks and shipped away overnight! Be careful!"

Su Yun was shocked.

The girl Wutong said calmly: "Maybe we don't have to wait half a year, you and I can decide the winner of the bet."

Su Yun murmured: "Human nature, is it really so vulnerable..."

The girl Wutong sneered and walked forward: "When has human nature ever been strong? I already knew this in my previous life. Only a young man like you still believes in human nature. These people will kill people and put the blame on me, claiming to outsiders that I allowed the Grey Robbery Monster to massacre the people and use my head as a sacrifice!"

Jiao Shuao hurried to catch up with her.

The middle-aged miner whispered, "I can only take you here. We are deep inside the Jiehui Mountain ahead and I cannot control this person from entering. I will go and investigate where the Jiehui monster was sent. You should be careful and don't get me into trouble!"

Su Yun nodded silently.

The miner suddenly changed his spirit. He scratched his head in confusion and looked around, not knowing why he was here.

The master in Shuofang City used a mind control spell to control his every move and every word. When the master no longer controlled him, the miner would wake up.

Su Yun followed Wutong and Jiao Shuao, looked back at the huge black coffins being loaded onto trucks in the square, and said silently in his heart: "Humanity, can it stand the test..."
