Ye Xiaoman is a famously honest person in the cultivation world. She is loyal and reliable, dedicated to her work, and always shows concern for every handsome young man.
After her undercover ...
Chapter 814: People from the Sea Also Arrive
It didn't matter to Qing Yuanhu how much money she spent. All of Xiao Chujing's money was tribute to her. If he spent it, he would be wasting her money, which was absolutely unacceptable.
"Brother Xiao, don't be angry with Qing Yuanhu. He's an internal employee of the Huantian Chamber of Commerce. He has employee discounts for participating in the rankings. Maybe he can get all the money back. The money you spent will be gone!"
Qing Yuanhu was unhappy and pulled Ye Xiaoman, "I helped you fight Shi Zaixing, and the Tianji Sect showed up, so the Chamber of Commerce temporarily suspended me. I spent my hard-earned money, how could you be so partial and only care about Xiao Chujing and not me!"
"Do whatever you want." Ye Xiaoman pushed Qing Yuanhu away and went to look at the betting list next door angrily.
Qing Yuanhu quickly paid her the inquiry fee, a low-grade spirit stone.
When Ye Xiaoman saw that her odds were 100 to 1 and the condition was that she had to win every game, she immediately lost all interest.
In the original novel, when Xiao Chujing participated in the competition as an unknown, the odds were 80 to 1, which meant that if you bet one dollar on him, you could win 80 dollars as long as he won.
With eighty times the compensation, the male protagonist can make a fortune by just betting on himself to win.
When it was her turn, she was directly put on the opposite side of the male protagonist - the classic cannon fodder that everyone thought could win, but ended up disappointing everyone and lost miserably to the male protagonist.
Ye Xiaoman was very melancholy.
Qing Yuanhu was still hovering around her like a fly, muttering, "Why don't you say thank you to Mr. Qing when I spend money on you?"
Ye Xiaoman looked at the pedestrian street and saw two such lists at the door of each store. She really didn't know how much money the Huantian Chamber of Commerce could make from this competition, both by attracting popularity and voting and by opening a gambling house.
Ye Xiaoman ruthlessly pushed Qing Yuanhu's face away.
At this time, the eldest sister came out to find Ye Xiaoman and others, and informed them to go back and gather. Everyone had rested enough and had to continue on their journey.
Ye Xiaoman turned around and left with the senior sister.
Qing Yuanhu subconsciously wanted to follow her, but he didn't notice a white cat jumped out from under his feet and almost tripped.
He stopped and felt depressed. How come even the cat beside Ye Xiaoman was dissatisfied with him?
If I gave up on him so easily, I wouldn’t be called Qing Yuanhu.
Qing Yuanhu said with a playful smile to Ye Xiaoman's back: "Play well, and I will find a way to help you deal with Shi Zaixing's problem."
This time, Ye Xiaoman finally turned around and gave him a smile, making a gesture of encouragement. Qing Yuanhu was so angry that he laughed.
He watched her back blend into the crowd of people in the inn, and she and Xiao Chujing were still the enviable couple walking side by side.
Especially when Xiao Chujing was about to turn the corner and disappear completely, she swung her high ponytail, turned her head slightly, glanced at him, and a scornful smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Qing Yuanhu touched his chin. He felt that his state had been greatly improved.
The feeling of meeting a shrewd rival in the business world made him feel wonderful. His boring life was finally pushed onto the ever-changing gambling table.
There was a crisp sound of beeping.
Qing Yuanhu's fingers moved briskly to add a bead to the golden abacus.
The man who gave it to Bai must compete with him, right?
Okay, he will kill Xiao Chujing directly next.
The monks on earth returned to the top floor of the inn with their damaged wallets.
When they were lining up to take turns boarding the flying boat, an extremely powerful pressure suddenly swept down from the sky, causing sand and rocks to fly everywhere. If the elders had not intervened in time to protect them, Ye Xiaoman and other fellow disciples would have almost fallen to the ground.
Many cultivators were affected, and no matter if they were the demon cultivator with the worst temper or the most cultured god, the first thing they wanted to do was to curse loudly.
Then, heavenly music floated from the sky, coming closer and closer. A huge shadow was cast on the ground, directly blocking the sun and turning the sunny day into a cloudy day.
First, thousands of mighty golden-armored guards drove flying divine beasts and beat drums to clear the way. Then, the luxurious and magnificent palace passed overhead, with colorful auspicious light and fairy air rising.
The gorgeous flag embroidered with the exclusive emblem of the royal family of the Divine Realm fluttered in the wind.
The grand ceremony of the God Emperor's trip is still as jaw-dropping as ever.
Those monks who wanted to curse immediately shut their mouths and didn't even dare to breathe too loudly.
Is it the God Emperor who has come? That's all right then.
There was a dense crowd of people kneeling on the ground. Except for the gods who knelt voluntarily, most of them were forced to kneel down due to pressure.
The Ji family is domineering and rampant in the six realms. Even in the demon world, they still follow the rules of their gods.
The palace is huge and it takes a while to fly over it.
All the flying magic weapons underground landed together, and even the flying boat of Tianxin Sect did not dare to take off, waiting patiently for the royal family to pass by.
Ye Xiaoman covered her hair which was blown all over the place by the strong wind, and silently raised her little finger to Ji Wenyi at the sky.
Only after the Ji family's palace flew away did the monks on the ground dare to stand up, carefully stretching their necks to look at the sky.
Before anyone could stand firm, another gust of wind swept over, and this time the wind was damp with moisture, like a rare drizzle in the desert.
Ye Xiaoman heard the sound of the waves rushing. She put one hand over her eyes and looked into the distance.
A huge tide really swept across the sky and did not land. Above it was an enormous ship with hundreds of floors. The hull was decorated with shells and pearls, and wind chimes of various shapes were hung on the side of the ship, striking each other to make pleasant music.
Although it is not as magnificent as Ji's flying magic weapon, the blue and white color combination has a unique and refreshing flavor, with the unique generosity and grandeur of the sea people.
The overall atmosphere was quite peaceful when the ship passed by. Unlike the royal family of the Divine Realm who were all-powerful and all living beings could only bow their heads and not make any noise, the monks from all walks of life who were waiting to leave on the roof of the inn whispered to each other and discussed what they had seen and heard.
Ye Xiaoman pricked up her ears and heard a lot of gossip.
"This is the ship of the young master of the sea area. There are people coming from the sea area."
"This Demon World Competition is so exciting!"
"Yes, the God Emperor is here, and I heard the Ghost Lord is coming too. The Demon King, the Demon Lord, and the Guixu Sword Pavilion Master, who has been in seclusion on earth for a long time, will also be in attendance. The last time all the important figures gathered together was when they swore a blood alliance to defeat the Demon God."
"Oh my, my blood boils just listening to it."
"In previous competitions, at most only some of you famous ancestors gathered. How could we be so fortunate this time?"
"Speaking of which, why is there so many people competing in this competition?"
"You demons are so out of touch with the news! Haven't you heard the rumors? The demon god Jing Zhui is about to be resurrected. The Qianji people predicted that the savior who can resist the demon god has been born. It's one of the geniuses participating in this competition!"
"What! Our Lord Demon is about to be resurrected, how come we don't know? Where did this news come from? Is it reliable?"
"Hehe, I even know who the savior is."
"who?!"
"Ye Xiaoman in the human world."
Ye Xiaoman straightened her back proudly, and the eyes of the monks around her fell on her.
Very good, promote me like this.
