Chapter 1780 Living Domain Core
Zhou Wen was not unfamiliar with the woman in front of him. An Tianzuo's sister An Jing was, in a sense, also his sister.
Of course, neither An Jing nor Zhou Wen had ever acknowledged this relationship.
"What do you mean?" Zhou Wen turned his gaze to the little flower and asked coldly.
"Don't you want the core area of Qizi Mountain? The core area of Qizi Mountain is in her. She is the living core of the area." Lord Di said jokingly.
"What do you mean by that on her?" Zhou Wen's face darkened.
"She was trained by me. Naturally, the only domain core that can match her is Qizishan's domain core. Now she has used Qizishan's domain core to advance to the disaster level. What do you think I mean?" Lord Di said with a smile.
"You didn't hand over the domain core to me. Is this a violation of the contract?" Zhou Wen said coldly.
"How could I violate the contract? If you need me to give it to you personally, I can peel the Domain Core from her body and hand it to you right now." Lord Di smiled even more happily. "But without the Domain Core, she naturally can no longer be a natural disaster level, and she will never be promoted to a natural disaster level again in the future. Apart from this Domain Core, there is no other Domain Core in the world that matches hers."
"Do you think this will make me regret it?" Zhou Wen said expressionlessly.
"Whether you regret it now has nothing to do with the contract. I just want you to understand one thing: there's no such thing as a free lunch. You're not willing to pay the price, yet you still want something so precious. Such a good thing doesn't exist in this world." Lord Di said with a smile, "Young man, remember this: the world doesn't revolve around you. You can't have your way with your will. You have to pay a price for what you want. Benefits that don't require a price may cause you to lose more."
"What choice do you want to make now? Do you want me to personally take out the domain core and give it to you?" Lord Di smiled happily.
How could Zhou Wen not know the truth of what Lord Di said? Since he wanted to get the skin of a tiger, he was ready to pay the price. He just didn't expect the situation to be like this now.
But even so, Zhou Wen did not regret coming here, nor did he regret making a bet with Lord Di.
His gaze turned to An Jing, who was floating in the air and unable to move. In fact, before today, Zhou Wen had never looked at An Jing carefully because he had never cared about this person.
An Jing looked at Zhou Wen with a complicated expression. From the conversation between Zhou Wen and Lord Di, she already understood what was going on.
An Jing originally thought that she had obtained a great opportunity, but she didn't expect it to turn out like this in the end. She couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.
She worked hard to prove that she was no worse than Zhou Wen, but the distance between them was getting bigger and bigger.
After meeting Lord Di, she thought she finally had a chance to catch up with or even surpass Zhou Wen, but she didn't expect that she was just a bargaining chip in the game between Lord Di and Zhou Wen.
Perhaps it wasn't even a bargaining chip, because chips still had a chance of winning, but she didn't have any chance at all. With just one word from Zhou Wen, all the achievements she had cultivated so hard to achieve would be taken away from her.
An Jing now deeply understands what Lord Di said just now.
"That thing doesn't belong to me, you can take it." An Jing looked at Zhou Wen and suddenly said.
She didn't need Zhou Wen's pity, let alone Zhou Wen's request. She would rather start over. Otherwise, even if she succeeded, it would be meaningless. If she accepted Zhou Wen's pity, she would not be qualified to talk about surpassing Zhou Wen.
"Hehe, did you hear that? She is willing to sacrifice herself for you. What a good sister. What are you going to choose? Do you want me to take out her domain core and give it to you right now?" When Zhou Wen heard Lord Di's voice, he felt an indescribable disgust.
"Of course I'll take the domain core." Zhou Wen said calmly, "But do you dare to make a bet with me?"
"Oh, you want to make a bet with me?" The little flower bud turned to Zhou Wen, looking at him with interest.
"Yes, do you dare?" Zhou Wen asked.
"There's no need to use your clumsy provocation. I can tell you clearly right now that I accept any kind of bet, even if it's unfair. Just tell me how you want to bet." Lord Di said with a smile.
"My betting method is very fair. I want to bet my luck with you." Although Lord Di made it very clear that she would accept an unfair bet, Zhou Wen did not intend to propose such a bet.
Because Zhou Wen knew very well that his knowledge was not on the same level as Lord Di's. Even if he thought he was sure to win by gambling, he might not actually win, and he might even lose more miserably.
"Are you sure you want to gamble your luck with me? You probably forgot that for me, even if the probability is one in a billion, as long as I am willing, it is a hundred percent. I suggest you gamble on something with a higher chance of winning, such as you can bet that you are a man, or bet that I will not die today, this way your chance of winning will be greater." Lord Di persuaded earnestly.
"No need. Since it's a bet, it must be absolutely fair. I'll bet on luck with you. If you don't win, her domain core won't count, and you'll give me another one. If I lose, her domain core will still be yours, and the previous bet will still be valid, and it will be as you wish. I will help you out of trouble now." Zhou Wen shook his head.
"Then as you wish, how do you want to gamble on your luck?" Lady Di was really interested at this time. She wanted to know how Zhou Wen was going to gamble.
"I want to make a bet with you, who will live longer between you and me." Zhou Wen had no reason to hesitate and directly told him the bet he had thought of.
After hearing Zhou Wen's bet, Lord Di immediately understood his intention and said with some contempt, "You want to bet that I live longer than you, right?"
"No, I bet I can live longer than you." Zhou Wen said.
Lord Di couldn't help but be slightly stunned, because it was impossible for Zhou Wen to win the bet with such a gambling method.
If Lord Di wanted, she could kill Zhou Wen, and then she would naturally win the bet, so this was basically a gamble that would lead to her own death.
Lord Di was a man of great character. After a moment's hesitation, he immediately understood Zhou Wen's intentions. His voice turned icy cold. "Do you really think I won't kill you? You'd better not test my patience. My endurance is very limited."
"You can kill me, but even if you kill me, you still can't win and will still lose the bet." Zhou Wen said lightly.
"Why can't I win even if I kill you?" Lady Di was also a little curious. She couldn't understand why she would still lose after killing Zhou Wen.
It has started to rain, and it's a bit heavy. It shouldn't be dangerous. I'm just worried about the power outage. If I don't update tomorrow, it may be because of the power outage. My friends, don't worry about me.
