Volume 19: Legend of Lu Xiaofeng Chapter 547 The Last Bet
Bai Yujing stared at the secret passage for a long time, then asked, "You have been guarding here for nine days. The old man hasn't come out yet?"
Liu Changjie said: "That's right."
Bai Yujing asked: "What's in the secret passage?"
Liu Changjie said: "There is a door."
Bai Yujing asked, "What's behind the door?"
Liu Changjie shook his head and said, "I don't know."
He looked at Su Weiyun and said, "No one knows either."
Su Weiyun was still meditating. He had been meditating most of the past nine days, his mind wandering away from the world and comprehending the mysteries.
No one could guess how powerful his skills had become.
Even Liu Changjie could only feel that Su Weiyun's aura was sometimes strong and sometimes weak. Sometimes it was like an overwhelming tidal wave, a landslide; sometimes, it was empty and invisible, as if it was in the sky; and sometimes, it was just ordinary and indescribable.
It's hard to believe if you tell them this, but this is the same martial art, showing different changes on the same person.
Bai Yujing also followed Liu Changjie's gaze and looked at Su Weiyun, and asked again: "Su Weiyun doesn't know either?"
Liu Changjie replied: "Su Weiyun doesn't know either."
At this time, Su Weiyun's body was surrounded by white steam and clouds and mist, as if she was in a fairyland, with an indescribable wonderful feeling.
This strange phenomenon began to appear on the third day - everyone knew that when masters with profound internal strength practiced their skills, white smoke rose above their heads, like burning incense, but no one had ever seen a mist as vast as Su Weiyun's.
Bai Yujing's eyes were filled with surprise, and he asked slowly, "His martial arts skills have improved again?"
Liu Changjie said with a smile: "The realm of gods and immortals can be called immortals on land; but from the way I see him, he is no longer on land, he is almost ascending to heaven!"
Indeed, if ordinary people saw this fairyland scene, they would definitely think that Su Weiyun was a god who had descended to earth.
Bai Yujing said: "He really should come and fight the old man. His breakthrough is really fast!"
Liu Changjie said: "The barrier of life and death is a sudden enlightenment. Some people practice for twenty years without making any progress, while others may make great progress overnight."
Bai Yujing said: "You are right. Perhaps I should also go and experience the life and death experience for a while."
He has lived in the imperial palace for a long time. It is not easy for him to maintain his martial arts skills for more than ten years. It is even more difficult for him to be promoted to a god.
Before Liu Changjie could answer, a calm voice came from outside the door.
"Then you may soon be able to experience it."
A group of people suddenly walked outside the gate of the famous hall.
The leaders were Gong Jiu and the old man. There was another person beside the old man who had been subdued. Although the years had passed, his appearance had not changed. This person was Long Wu.
…
Long Wu did gain some weight.
But looking at the muscles in his body and the glow on his face, you can tell that although he is fat, his martial arts skills are by no means inferior.
But now he had been captured by the old man, and his movements were hindered everywhere.
The old man was not in the secret passage, but appeared in the famous hall with Gong Jiu!
Liu Changjie was moved and said: "Wu Ming, you..."
The old man sighed and said, "I just left some tricks in reserve. You should know me. I am a very cautious person."
Liu Changjie said: "Are there other passages in the secret passage? Have you been out for a long time?"
The old man said, "That's right. After I went out, I found Gong Jiu."
Liu Changjie said helplessly: "It seems that we have waited for another nine days in vain."
"It wasn't a wasted wait. At least it helped me to stabilize my realm."
These words came from Su Weiyun's mouth.
After he said that, he stood up and stood between the old man and the crowd.
The clouds and mist suddenly cleared up and the white mist dissipated.
The previous wonders disappeared like a dream.
The old man stared at Su Weiyun, and seemed to have sensed his change, and said slowly: "I should have bet on you at the beginning!"
He first took a fancy to Su Weiyun and wanted to include Su Weiyun in the group of disciples he would train, but was rejected by Su Weiyun.
Su Weiyun smiled and said, "My martial arts talent is not as good as Gong Jiu's, and even worse than Di Qinglin's. At that time, who could have predicted what would happen today?"
The old man nodded slowly: "Talent in martial arts does not determine future achievements. This is a principle that every martial artist should remember."
Everyone was from the martial arts world, and after hearing this, they all seemed to be thinking about something.
Bai Yujing looked at the old man and asked, "You left and came back, and Long Wu fell into your hands again. I believe you have something to tell me."
The old man said, "Yes. I just want to gamble again!"
Bai Yujing asked, "Bet with me?"
The old man said: "No, bet with Su Weiyun!"
He was going to gamble with Su Weiyun again, and this might be his last bet - what would he bet on this time?
Liu Changjie laughed and said, "Hasn't your loss been enough?"
The old man was neither sad nor angry, but said: "I still have something to lose. Losing something is also a good thing."
Su Weiyun asked: "What else can you lose?"
The old man said, "Lose all my power."
"If you win, I am willing to die, and I will make all my overseas forces submit to the Great Xing Dynasty, and give you all the gold, silver and jewelry."
"What if I lose?"
"If you lose, you will withdraw from Wuming Island. We will not have any further dealings, and I will not interfere in Zhongyuan again."
The old man continued, "It's still the same old rule. You won't suffer any loss in this bet."
——He is the most fair person, and his opponents never suffer any loss in every bet he makes.
To achieve this is by no means an easy task.
Bai Yujing suddenly asked: "Why did Su Weiyun bet with you?"
The old man said calmly: "Because you guys can't kill me and Gong Jiu. Although we are here, we can leave at any time, and you can't stop us."
"What's more, Long Wu is still in our hands."
Bai Yujing's face looked a little cold. They left Long Wu on the island to let him rest and recuperate, but unexpectedly the old man and Gong Jiu came back and captured Long Wu.
Long Wu's acupuncture points were sealed and he could not speak, but his eyes revealed his unwillingness.
The old man said, "As long as you bet with me, whether you win or lose, I will ensure that Lord Long Wu returns safely to the Central Plains."
He showed his sincerity again.
Su Weiyun said slowly: "How do you want to bet?"
The old man said: "You and I will fight fairly, no one else will interfere, and we will both live our lives in peace!"
Su Weiyun asked: "Right here?"
The old man shook his head and said, "In the secret passage, in the secret room behind the door."
Ding Xi suddenly said: "Don't bet with him, he..."
The old man seemed to know what Ding Xi was going to say, and added: "If I lose, I will accept the death without any regrets; if I win, I will try my best not to hurt Hero Su."
He said "try his best" because when they reach that level, every move they make is so powerful that even gods and Buddhas cannot stop them, and no one can hold back!
In the battle between Su Weiyun and the old man, life and death, victory or defeat, are likely to be linked together.
So everyone looked at Su Weiyun.
Su Weiyun said slowly: "Okay, I'll bet with you again!"
"Brother Su, think about it again! This old man said this, but what if he changes his mind..."
Pony shouted anxiously.
The old man's eyes lit up, and he said happily, "Come down with me!"
He flew up, passed the crowd, and entered the secret passage first!
