Chapter 3453 Winning
After they swore, a purple light entered their foreheads, which meant that they had taken the oath. If they went back on their word, they would be retaliated.
After the oath was taken, everyone went their separate ways.
After they walked away, Cheng Zicai said worriedly, "Brother Lu, there are only four of us. I'm afraid we don't have any chance of winning!"
Although he didn't say anything about Leng Xiaoyao, he did blame Leng Xiaoyao in his heart for insisting on making a bet with such harsh conditions.
He was beginning to suspect that Leng Xiaoyao was someone sent by Ji Yang to embarrass them.
Lu Chengfeng didn't have any doubts, but he was really worried.
"Don't worry! I generally don't do things that I'm not sure of." Leng Xiaoyao comforted.
"How can we be at ease! We are all cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and so are they. Moreover, they have the advantage in numbers." Chengzi finally couldn't help but speak, and his tone was naturally filled with blame.
"Who said I was a foundation-building cultivator?" Leng Xiaoyao said, revealing the cultivation level of a Jindan Zhenren: "I was just hiding it."
Although they, the foundation-building cultivators, could not see the Golden Core cultivation level, but when Leng Xiaoyao was exposed like that, they did feel the powerful energy, which was much higher than theirs.
Although Chengzi is in the middle stage of foundation building, Lu Chengfeng is at the peak of foundation building. So if he feels that Leng Xiaoyao is stronger than him, then he must be above the Golden Core stage.
"I didn't know you were the senior. I am Lu Chengfeng meeting you. Thank you for your help." Lu Chengfeng immediately said respectfully.
"I didn't know you were my senior. I'm sorry for offending you. Please forgive me." Chengzi also apologized immediately.
"It's okay, but don't reveal my cultivation level, otherwise Ji Yang and the others won't be convinced." Leng Xiaoyao warned.
"Yes." Lu Chengfeng and Chengzi responded. Even if Leng Xiaoyao didn't say it, they wouldn't say it.
Generally, cultivators at the foundation-building stage only dare to stay at the outskirts of the forest. Even at the outskirts, it doesn’t mean it’s safe, it’s just not as dangerous as deep in the mountains.
However, there are fewer spiritual beasts in the periphery because all the spiritual beasts in the periphery have been hunted by people.
So they could only go deeper.
Knowing that Leng Xiaoyao was a Jindan Zhenren, Lu Chengfeng and Chengzi were not as worried as before.
Soon, they encountered two spirit beasts.
Because they were all low-level spirit beasts, Leng Xiaoyao did not take any action and let them gain experience.
Even though they were low-level spirit beasts, they were still not easy to defeat. It took quite a while, but fortunately no one was injured.
It is not easy to encounter spiritual beasts, so Leng Xiaoyao released his spiritual sense and went wherever there were spiritual beasts.
As a result, they encountered spiritual beasts very frequently. In just two hours, they had hunted more than ten spiritual beasts.
As for Ji Yang, it took him two hours to hunt five spirit stones, and he even made himself look very embarrassed.
Time passes by slowly.
Leng Xiaoyao and his companions went deeper and deeper, and encountered more and more spiritual beasts, and their levels became higher, so Leng Xiaoyao stopped standing by and watching.
Because of his high level of cultivation, he killed these spiritual beasts easily.
The sun gradually set, and Leng Xiaoyao and his companions returned home. Lu Chengfeng and his companions looked a little embarrassed, but Leng Xiaoyao remained calm and composed.
Lu Chengfeng and Chengzi were very fortunate that they did not object to Leng Xiaoyao's bet at the beginning.
They hunted quite a few spiritual beasts. No matter how powerful Ji Yang and his men were, they could not hunt more than them, so they were sure to win this time.
Even before the results were announced, Lu Chengfeng and Chengzi already felt proud.
When they returned to the forest entrance, Ji Yang and the others had not returned yet, but it was not dark yet, so they were not in a hurry.
"Let's get some spirit beast meat to eat first!" Leng Xiaoyao suggested.
"Okay." Everyone agreed and started to make a fire and grill the meat.
Lu Chengfeng asked Leng Xiaoyao and Nan Weiyue to sit down and rest, and they would do the grilling.
Leng Xiaoyao didn't say anything polite and just sat aside to rest.
The meat was roasted and when we were halfway through eating it, Ji Yang and the others came back.
Although they were all in a very miserable state, they looked proud when they saw Lu Chengfeng and his companions, because they had killed quite a few spirit beasts this time, so they were sure that they would win this time.
When they saw Lu Chengfeng and the others eating spirit beast meat, they wanted to eat it, but they had quite a few spirit beasts, so they didn't want to eat Lu Chengfeng's.
"Hey! You are killing the spirit beasts and eating their meat. It seems that you have hunted quite a few!" Ji Yang said, but his words were full of sarcasm. He didn't think that they could hunt many spirit beasts, at least not as many as they did.
"We hunted quite a few. Now that you are back, let's reveal the results!" Lu Chengfeng said as he took out the spirit beasts he had hunted, a total of fifteen.
Seeing this, Ji Yang and the others thought that they had only hunted fifteen of them. Lu Chengfeng and the others were doomed to lose.
"Wow! Fifteen! Sorry! We hunted twenty-two." Ji Yang said, undisguisedly proud, and directly released the twenty-two spirit beasts they had hunted with their hunting knives.
"Only twenty-two! That's half, only eleven." Lu Chengfeng frowned, looking disgusted.
Hearing this, Ji Yang and the others changed their expressions. Ji Yang asked, "What do you mean?"
Could it be that Lu Chengfeng and others hunted more than fifteen?
Suddenly, Ji Yang and his friends had a bad feeling.
"These fifteen were hunted by me alone, not including theirs!" Lu Chengfeng said with an innocent look, but he was actually very happy in his heart.
Ji Yang and others felt sick after hearing this.
"I only hunted ten." Chengzi took out the spirit beasts he had hunted and scratched his head embarrassedly, because he had hunted the least among them.
"I hunted seventeen." Nan Weiyue also took out the spirit beasts she had hunted.
"No, it's impossible, you are cheating..." Ji Yang really couldn't accept that they could hunt so many spirit beasts by themselves.
They had already lost even without Leng Xiaoyao taking out the spiritual beast she hunted.
"Cheating? Ha! We have sworn an oath. If we cheat, we will be punished." Leng Xiaoyao said sarcastically.
Ji Yang and the others were stunned. Yes! They had sworn an oath. Even if they were unwilling, they would not break their oath.
If he had known that Lu Chengfeng and the others would win, he would not have agreed to the bet.
But he didn't think about it. If Leng Xiaoyao didn't have the confidence that he could win, why would he make this bet?
Therefore, Ji Yang and others had no choice but to fulfill their oath.
Seeing Ji Yang and the others' unwilling looks, Lu Chengfeng and Chengzi felt so relieved.
Li Yao regretted not following Lu Chengfeng. He followed Ji Yang, but was seriously injured!
