After Yan Zu proposed the bet, the demons did not respond immediately.
"Hmph, humans are cunning and love to play tricks. The wolf demons are not weak. Perhaps they want to take this opportunity to eliminate the wolf demons. We must not fall for their tricks."
A demon spoke up, refusing to accept the bet.
They had worked so hard to win this battle, but if they lost the bet, retreating three thousand miles would greatly reduce their operational space.
They wanted to monopolize the Qingyuan Realm, not destroy it. The battle between the two sides was destined to harm innocent people, so they agreed on the boundaries early on.
Their retreat is tantamount to giving more territory to the human race.
Absolutely not.
"What Master Yang said makes sense, but what if we win? If those three don't make a move, we can launch a counterattack in less than a day, and then victory will be ours."
"This is an opportunity; perhaps we can give it a try."
"Master Yang is right. I think that human girl is just a tiny little bean. I could crush her with one finger. She's nothing to be afraid of."
These demons spoke without any attempt to hide their true intentions, and Lu Wu cursed inwardly.
You can discuss things, but what's with the personal attacks?
Lu Wu, fuming, angrily bit into an ice cream to cool down.
When gods fight, mortals suffer.
"That's not right. You all saw the rat demon make a move before. That little girl is strange; ordinary methods can't hurt her."
"I think the human race is too confident and might have already set a trap for us."
The demons were locked in a fierce battle.
The fact that there are roughly two conflicting opinions shows how much the demons fear the existence of the Azure Emperor and his two companions.
"Hey, have you guys figured it out yet? If it doesn't work, just fight."
"So slow and indecisive, a bunch of old women raising these things."
Dao Di and the others grew impatient, biting into their ice cream and exhaling a puff of white breath.
"Ouch, it's so cold."
Taking a deep breath of cool air, the Sword Emperor took another bite.
The already small ice cream was emptied in no time.
After licking the stick clean, the Sword Emperor tossed a few spirit stones behind the stall and began the ice cream buffet.
The mung bean dessert is delicious, and the pudding is good too...
Give me some of everything.
With an ice cream in each hand, Dao Di was eating it with a mix of bites from the left and right, his expression one of pure satisfaction.
"Awesome!"
The coolness penetrated to the core, clearing my mind.
After realizing the benefits of ice cream, Dao Di looked up.
"Since you don't have the guts to accept this bet, let's just cancel it. It's a waste to give this good stuff to you bunch of animals."
Both the Azure Emperor and the Flame Ancestor agreed with this statement.
But the demons were in a panic.
"Shut up, listen to me, this time, we'll bet."
"But the three of you must swear an oath to Heaven that if we win, you three will not interfere in the battle today by any means."
A demon with sharp horns on its head stepped forward.
"Haha, okay, let's both sides take an oath."
Dao Di slurped up his ice cream, slowly finished it, and then stood up.
Once a vow is made in accordance with the Heavenly Dao, it must be kept; otherwise, one's Dao heart will be impaired, and the path to immortality will be severed.
When the demons saw the three make their vows, their eyes lit up with joy, and they immediately followed suit and made their own vows.
Their thinking was very simple.
The success or failure of this bet is determined by the taste of the food, but the actual taste still depends on individual will.
They have eaten human food before.
They prefer raw flesh and blood to things that have lost their vitality after cooking.
Tearing and chewing with your teeth, the smell of blood is the best seasoning.
They have a very good chance of winning this bet.
"Wolf demon, go."
The demons gestured for the wolf demon to leave.
Despite their calm demeanor, they were actually frantically sending telepathic messages to the wolf demon.
"Although the Mirror of Mind can detect lies, it only works if what you say is a lie. If there is even the slightest thing about that ice cream that doesn't suit your taste, you can say you don't like it."
"Therefore, the Mirror of Clear Mind cannot reveal it."
After all, they are inanimate objects. No matter how intelligent they are, they are not as adaptable as living things.
Besides, they didn't lie.
Their tastes are peculiar; they never compromise themselves, and if anything is not to their liking, it's considered unpalatable.
"I've written it down."
With a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, the wolf demon approached the stall with a tense expression.
Looking at the ice cream, the wolf demon carefully assessed the situation, but his appetite remained un whetted.
It's safe!
He simply couldn't believe that something so bland and unappetizing could taste that good.
He was determined that if there was even the slightest thing that disappointed him, he would say it wasn't tasty.
Thinking it over, the wolf demon reached out and grabbed the strawberry white chocolate.
Lu Wu naturally noticed it. She had to admit that the other party had good taste, choosing the most expensive item right away.
But Lu Wu still reached out to stop the other person.
"What do you want to do? Or is your human race trying to go back on its word?"
The wolf demon stared fiercely at Lu Wu. Although he looked no different from anyone else, the ferocity and malevolence of the demon spoke volumes about their difference from humans.
"Of course not, it's just that you can make bets, but I'm just setting up a stall here to sell things."
"Small businesses do not accept bargaining, do not offer credit, and absolutely do not accept dine-and-dash orders."
Lu Wu gestured for the wolf demon to look at the signboard.
The price is listed above.
Want to eat? Sure, pay up.
As a street vendor, Lu Wu refused to be taken advantage of.
"you!"
The wolf demon was enraged. How dare a mere human ask him for money? He was courting death.
The wolf demon felt a surge of killing intent, but when the seemingly calm yet sharp gazes of the Azure Emperor and the others fell upon him, he abandoned his attempt to force the issue.
