Chapter 40 Gambling
"Wait a minute, Senior Sister. We are now alone on the Demon Refining Island. Why should we reject others' kindness? In my opinion, it is better to accept it."

When Xiao Daoyi heard this, his heart moved. He didn't know what Zhang Qian was planning, but he didn't think about it too much. As long as Li Qingque could accept the Qingming Xuanwu clan, he would naturally have follow-up measures.

"Junior brother, you... well, you decide. I don't care."

Seeing that Zhang Qian secretly gave him a look, Li Qingque let him do as he pleased.

Zhang Qian smiled slightly, turned to Xiao Dao and said, "Brother Xiao, I didn't expect you to be so generous. I really misjudged you before. I'm new to Jianhu Palace and I'm not familiar with many sect rules. I hope you will forgive me if I've offended you before. In addition, I'm new here, so I'll need Brother Xiao's support in the future!"

Seeing Zhang Qian talking now, he had completely lost the wildness he had in the sect hall, and instead became polite. Xiao Daoyi's mind turned quickly, and he said with a fake smile: "This is natural. As the saying goes, ignorance is not a crime. My previous actions were also a bit inappropriate, but everything I did was for the sect, you have to understand. I know that you were an abandoned child of the Mangcang Sword Sect before, and you were also a river god. I don't think you have seen any elixirs. This bottle of Blood Yuan Pill has a miraculous effect on improving the physical body. You keep it and treat it as my gift. By the way, I heard from Junior Brother Ye Lingxiao that the spiritual power you manifested in the Mangcang Sword Sect was just a small loach, but now your spiritual power is clearly at the level of an ancient beast. What's going on? I wonder if you can help me solve this puzzle?"

Hearing the sarcasm in Xiao Dao's words, Zhang Qian's face showed no joy or anger, and no expression could be seen. He just reached out to take the jade bottle and nodded with a smile.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Qian knew why Xiao Daoyi knew it so clearly. Ye Lingxiao was the grandson of Ye Tianjing, and he must have been able to get detailed information about himself from Ye Tianjing. Zhang Qian used a knife to kill Qiao Jinning and severely offended Ye Tianjing. Now, he is in the Jianhu Palace with Ye Lingxiao, the peerless genius. Although he has not met Ye Lingxiao yet, Zhang Qian is still a little wary of him.

"Senior Brother Xiao is really well-informed. Actually, there is nothing to hide. My spiritual power was indeed poor in Mangcang Sword Sect before, but later I went to Lishui River and accidentally got a Xianfu Dan pomegranate. It can be said that this person's luck is unstoppable. It happened that this Xianfu Dan pomegranate was ripe, so I picked it and ate it. Then my spiritual power inexplicably became the innate level. It's that simple."

Xiao Daoyi's eyes flashed with gloom: "Interesting, you are lucky, congratulations."

Xiao Daoyi didn't believe a word of what Zhang Qian said. Nonsense! If there really was a spiritual root like the Immortal Palace Pomegranate, it wouldn't have waited until Zhang Qian went to pick it. It would have been discovered by those powerful people long ago.

"By the way, you are going to break into Shangyuan Bajing Palace in three days. Are you sure?"

Seeing Xiao Daoyi showing a look of concern, Zhang Qian wanted to slap him in the face. He felt that Xiao Daoyi was simply perfect and there was not a single flaw to be found in him. In terms of this shrewd character, he could not compare to him.

He suppressed his nausea and continued to test the waters with a smile, "Speaking of this, I was also thinking about it. I heard that Senior Brother Xiao lost in the Sixth Palace. If I clear it in one go, I hope Senior Brother Xiao won't be angry!"

"you……!"

A hint of coldness appeared on Xiao Daoyi's face. His eyes turned inexplicably. He glanced at Li Qingque and said softly, "Uncle Li should know how powerful Shangyuan Bajing Palace is. Although I was born with sword bones and possessed the spiritual power of the sun, I am not so arrogant as to say that I can get through it in one breath. You just came to my Jianhu Palace, so it is normal that you don't know how powerful it is. Since you have temporarily joined Jianhu Palace, remember to be careful in what you say and do, and don't say anything that will cause trouble, otherwise you will fail early in Shangyuan Bajing Palace and lose face."

Zhang Qian narrowed his eyes, knowing that Xiao Daoyi, who had been so perfect and flawless before, had become a little angry. He remained calm and provoked him, "Misfortune comes from the mouth? How did you get this from? Although Shangyuan Bajing Palace is very famous, I have enough confidence. Brother Xiao, do you want to make a bet with me?"

There was a flash of cold light in Xiao Daoyi's eyes. He didn't answer for a long time. No one knew what he was thinking about. Zhang Qian stared at his eyes.

At this moment, Xiao Daoyi suddenly smiled inexplicably: "Bet? Okay, what do you want to bet with me?"

"How about we bet on whether I can get through Shangyuan Bajing Palace in three days?"

Xiao Daoyi smiled lightly: "If you bet with me, you must be prepared to lose. Well, for Uncle Li's sake, I will bet with you. If you fail to pass Shangyuan Bajing Palace, then I win. How about you destroy your spiritual power and leave Jianhu Palace? Do you dare to agree?"

Zhang Qian's face hardened: "Why not? What if you lose?"

Xiao Daoyi said calmly: "I'm already bullying you by betting with you. Well, if I lose, you can make any conditions you want. How about that?"

Zhang Qian narrowed his eyes and said, "You said this, Senior Sister, please testify for us!"

Li Qingque looked at Zhang Qian worriedly and sighed. Knowing that he couldn't persuade his junior brother, he could only nod.

"Don't forget, no matter what the conditions are, Senior Brother Xiao, don't go back on your word!"

"It's natural!"

Xiao Daoyi's voice became cold, but without any anger, making Zhang Qian unable to see through the other party's plan.

At this moment, Xiao Daoyi handed the small bowl in his hand to Li Qingque.

"Uncle-master, the Qingming Xuanwu clan is in the bowl. I leave it to you." Li Qingque waved his hand and took the small bowl. Zhang Qian glanced at it and found it interesting.

It seemed like there was a lake in the bowl, and in the lake there were more than a thousand Qingming Xuanwu the size of rice grains. It was obvious that this small bowl was a space magic weapon, and the small bowl of water was actually a small lake.

brush!
Li Qingque turned the small bowl upside down, and more than a thousand Qingming Xuanwu appeared in it, returning to their original size. They did not occupy the space of the pavilion and were caught by a white cloud summoned by Li Qingque.

"Ninja Turtles!"

When Zhang Qian saw the appearance of these Black Tortoises, he was dumbfounded. Each of these Qingming Black Tortoises stood upright, with their chest and abdomen wrapped in a round tortoise shell, exactly like the Ninja Turtles in Zhang Qian's memory.

The leader of these Qingming Xuanwu is an old turtle with a long beard under his chin. His cultivation level is roughly at the Zhenyuan realm, and he has not yet formed a demon pill.

The cultivation of the remaining Xuanwu is not very good either, most of them are at the Qi Refining stage, which cannot be compared with the mermaid clan of the Demon Refining Island.

"I am Fan Dongliu, and I am here to meet the island master!"

The leading old turtle bowed down in a comical manner. His pair of dim yellow eyes looked quite clever as he secretly glanced at Xiao Daoyi.

"Fan Dongliu? Well, since you have come to the Demon Refining Island, you must abide by the rules of the Demon Refining Island. From now on, your clan will be under the leadership of my junior brother. Are you willing?"

Fan Dongliu looked at Li Qingque with some embarrassment, not knowing how to answer. Before coming here, he had heard Xiao Daoyi's instructions. Xiao Daoyi asked him to obey Li Qingque, but now Li Qingque was not playing by the rules.

Zhang Qian was not polite to others. He smiled slightly, glanced at Xiao Daoyi secretly, reached out and patted the tortoise shell on Fan Dongliu's back and said with a smile: "Patriarch Fan, you don't have to worry. Since Senior Brother Xiao has handed over your Qingming Xuanwu clan to my Demon Refining Island, you can stay here with peace of mind. I will definitely not let your clan suffer any loss. By the way, Senior Sister, let me use that small bowl."

Li Qingque didn't know what Zhang Qian wanted to do, so he handed the small bowl to Zhang Qian.

Zhang Qian scanned the area and secretly laughed. This small bowl looked inconspicuous, but he didn't expect it to be a top-level magic weapon containing twelve prohibitions. It was also a precious magic weapon containing a space array. This kind of magic weapon was rare.

Holding the small bowl, Zhang Qian weighed it in his hand.

"Brother Xiao, you are the peerless genius of Jianhu Palace, and you are valued by the head master. I think you should have all kinds of treasures. I have just started my cultivation and I am penniless. How about you lend me this small bowl?"

After saying this, Zhang Qian showed a half-smile on his face, wanting to see how the other party would answer.

Xiao Daoyi glanced at Zhang Qian gloomily, then looked at Li Qingque beside him, and after a moment's thought, he smiled and said, "This inverted sea bowl is nothing special. If you want it, I'll give it to you."

Without waiting for Zhang Qian to answer, Li Qingque stopped him and said, "No, this Sea-covering Bowl contains twelve prohibitions. It is already a top-level magical weapon. Junior Brother, you..."

"Uncle Li, I know you have no shortage of treasures on the Demon Refining Island, but since Junior Brother Zhang Qian wants it, just give it to him. Uncle Li has been very good to me over the years, so it's only right that I give something back."

Xiao Daoyi interrupted Li Qingque and spoke frankly.

"This……"

Just when Li Qingque was hesitating, Zhang Qian didn't care whether Xiao Daoyi was pretending or really did it. He thanked Xiao Daoyi and with an extremely powerful mind, he directly dispersed the imprint of Xiao Daoyi's consciousness in the Fu Hai Bowl.

He did this on purpose, wanting to show off his strong mind and make Xiao Daoyi cautious.

Xiao Daoyi suddenly felt a headache, and then he could no longer sense the connection between himself and Xiaowan. It was obvious that the imprint of his spiritual consciousness had been dispersed by Zhang Qian.

"you……"
