Chapter 179 High-profile gambling dispute(2/2)
Shan Wenqi's face instantly turned gloomy.
He thought that Lin Shen might refuse to agree to the bet. As long as Lin Shen stayed on Jinchuan Island and opened the ban, he had nothing to do with Lin Shen, so he used an aggressive tone in the letter of challenge.
Unexpectedly, Lin Shen agreed, but asked him to bet his own training cave.
"Lin Shen is too arrogant. Not only did he snatch Jinchuan Island, but he also wanted to go to Gale Island. He really treated Wen Qi as a soft persimmon. He was bullying others too much!" Tang Ming snorted coldly.
The rest of the people also showed angry expressions.
On the contrary, Li Mengfei smiled slightly and said:
"Everyone, please be patient."
"Since Lin Shen wants Gale Island as a bet, why not agree to it? Anyway, he is not Wen Qi's opponent after all. The so-called bet is just a name!"
Everyone thought it right and said yes one after another.
Shan Wenqi's gloomy expression also eased a lot.
Although Gale Island is his cave, the family spent a lot of effort to help him capture it. Strictly speaking, it is not something he can dispose of at will.
If he loses in a gambling dispute, he will be severely punished by his family.
So when he heard that Lin Shen asked him to take out Gale Island as a bet, his first reaction was a mixture of shock and anger.
But then he heard what Li Mengfei said, and he suddenly felt relieved.
Indeed, Lin Shen could not be his opponent in any case. In this case, it didn't matter what he was betting on.
Thinking of this, Shan Wenqi felt certain in his heart, his expression gradually returned to normal, and he turned to sneer.
"Okay, I promise him!"
He turned to Sun Linmao and said, "Go and tell Lin Shen that I will fight him on Jinchuan Island in ten days!"
When Sun Linmao took the order and left, Shan Wenqi sneered again.
"If Lin Shen doesn't agree to the bet, I really can't do anything to him. I never thought that he would be dazzled by greed and miss my Gale Island. That's fine. In ten days, I will let him pay the loss to my wife again."
Break the troops!"
Li Mengfei and others looked at each other, laughed and raised their glasses.
"Then let's first congratulate Wen Qi on his return!"
"cheers!"
News of the gambling dispute between Shan Wenqi and Lin Shen quickly spread throughout the Jiuyang Sect!
This was because Lin Shen was a prominent figure in the sect and every move he made was followed by countless people.
On the other hand, it was also because the people in Baidao deliberately spread the word, hoping that Lin Shen would be defeated by Shan Wenqi in public, so as to take this opportunity to damage Lin Shen's reputation.
In just four or five days, this gambling dispute attracted a lot of attention.
This development is not surprising.
After all, both sides of the fight have considerable backgrounds.
One of them is a spiritual genius who has been in the limelight recently.
The other party is also an elite true disciple with considerable strength among the younger generation.
What's more important is that behind the two men stand the master-disciple lineage and the power of the family respectively.
From the perspective of discerning people, this is actually a collision between two major forces!
Even in the Jiuyang Sect, which encouraged its disciples to fight and compete, such gambling disputes were rare and naturally attracted much attention.
The gambling battle has not yet started, but many disciples are already looking forward to it and decide to go there that day to take a look.
Outside Jinchuan Island, a stream of light flew past and stayed over the island.
Lin Shen, who was practicing, immediately noticed this familiar aura and immediately activated the restriction.
A stream of light fell from the sky and landed in front of Lin Shen, revealing Xia Mengran's figure.
"I heard that you are going to have a gambling dispute with Shan Wenqi?"
Xia Mengran went straight to the topic as soon as they met.
"That's right." Lin Shen nodded calmly.
Hearing this, Xia Mengran frowned slightly, but she did not ask why Lin Shen agreed, but straight to the point asked:
"Are you sure?"
"have."
A simple word, but it gives people a sense of calmness and power, allowing people to clearly understand the confidence contained in it.
Xia Mengran glanced at Lin Shen in surprise.
She had heard about Shan Wenqi's strength. Originally, she thought it was unlikely that Lin Shen could win against Shan Wenqi. In her heart, she thought Lin Shen's act of agreeing to the bet was too reckless.
But now it seems that I have underestimated this junior brother?
After several contacts, Xia Mengran had already seen that Lin Shen was not a person who spoke arrogantly.
Since he said that, he must be quite confident!
Seeing this, Xia Mengran nodded and said no more. He turned around and left without hesitation, just as angry as when he came.
Watching Xia Mengran leave, Lin Shen couldn't help shaking his head and laughing. This senior sister was still as vigorous and resolute as ever.
Putting aside his distracting thoughts, Lin Shen continued to practice.
Although he said he was confident, he did not underestimate Shan Wenqi.
The reason why we made the ten-day appointment is to reserve more time to improve our strength.
With the blessing of the dual talents of heavenly talent and natural spiritual body, ten days are enough for him to break through to the second level of Yunling!
And if you practice with all your strength, you might even be able to condense a second drop of Netherworld Heavy Water.
By then, he could easily defeat Shan Wenqi with just two drops of Netherworld Heavy Water.
Not long after.
Quietness returned to the island.
Invisible to the naked eye, a large amount of spiritual energy poured into Lin Shen's body like an ocean containing hundreds of rivers, constantly turning into a part of the heavy water of darkness.
