150: Chapter 150 Lin Yaodong's Challenge

Three days and three nights!

The two of them dressed properly.

On Liu Ruyan's pretty face, a lingering flush remained, her hair was disheveled, and her entire being exuded a charming allure after being nourished.

"Baili Yunche, what should we do now? They have been guarding outside all this time," Liu Ruyan asked.

Baili Yunche stretched lazily, looking leisurely and carefree as he smiled, "Then just let them guard. We're not in a rush anyway. Once they are tired of searching, they will naturally leave."

Outside.

"Damn it, damn it! Where did that damned bastard go?!"

The Seventh Prince frantically bombarded the surrounding rocks, golden lightning darting about everywhere and blasting the valley into a pocked mess.

Their dozen or so people had searched here for several days, their Divine Sense covering every inch of land, yet they didn't find any trace of Baili Yunche at all!

Elder Jin said, "Your Highness, could it be that they have already left long ago?"

The Seventh Prince pondered for a moment, his expression as gloomy as water, his eyes filled with unwillingness!

He had finally managed to gather information on the jiuyou cold flame and paid a huge price in manpower and resources for it, only for it to be snatched away by some punk who popped out of nowhere!

How infuriating!

Elder Jin said again, "Your Highness, the Cangxuan Assembly is fast approaching, and we cannot waste too much time here. If we miss the Cangxuan Assembly, the losses will outweigh the gains!"

In the end, the Seventh Prince sighed; although filled with reluctance, he knew the gravity of the situation.

He fiercely punched the rock wall and gritted his teeth, "Let's go! Head back first to prepare for the Cangxuan Assembly! This matter isn't over. Once the assembly ends, I will definitely find out this person's identity and make him wish he were dead!"

Afterward, he led a group of Cultivators and left the Burial Heaven Abyss.

Liu Ruyan said, "Baili Yunche, they have left as well. Let's hurry and leave too!"

Baili Yunche shook his head, a flash of craftiness crossing his eyes, "Not yet for now."

He sneered, "The Seventh Prince is a man of deep cunning; how could he easily give up? They haven't gone far and are hiding in the black mist waiting for us to take the bait! Going out right now would be walking right into a trap."

Then, several more days passed.

Indeed, the Seventh Prince completely lost his patience and truly left with the group of Cultivators!

Afterward, Baili Yunche also took Liu Ruyan and left the Burial Heaven Abyss, transforming into two streaks of light that sped away in the direction of the Xuanyang Sect.

...

Three days later.

Baili Yunche and Liu Ruyan finally returned to the Xuanyang Sect.

After turning in the mission, the two directly left the Mission Hall.

As soon as they came out, they saw a figure blocking their path.

It was precisely Lin Yaodong!

"Stop right there! Baili Yunche, I want to challenge you!"

Lin Yaodong puffed out his chest, his nostrils pointed to the sky, and spoke with an arrogant expression.

He had just reached the Nascent Soul Stage recently, and his aura wasn't completely stable yet, but he was already impatient to find someone to establish his prestige.

"I heard you defeated a Split-Toothed Black Bear, not bad strength, huh? How about it, interested in having a spar with me?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding passersby immediately gathered to watch a good show!

"What? Saint Lin actually initiated a challenge against Baili Yunche?!"

"Oh my god! Now there's a good show to watch! Saint Lin recently broke through to the Nascent Soul Stage! He's a strong contender for the top ten of this Cangxuan Assembly!"

"What are they fighting for?"

"Rumor has it that it's to compete for Saintess Liu Ruyan!"

"I'm so envious of Saintess Ruyan. If I could also have such a pursuer, I would never abandon him for the rest of my life!"

A burly young girl said this with a face full of infatuation.

"Tsk! Li Cuihua, give it a rest! Which man would dare to marry you? You must still be dreaming!"

A scrawny man nearby sneered.

"Li Ergou, what did you say?!"

That burly young girl immediately put her hands on her hips and roared fiercely, making a motion as if she wanted to pounce and brawl.

...

Baili Yunche looked at Lin Yaodong, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly to reveal a mocking smile:

"You have some strength, but unfortunately, that's all. Do you think that breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage gives you the ability to fight me?"

"Arrogant!" Lin Yaodong's face darkened as he sneered,

"I can suppress my cultivation to the Ninth Layer of Golden Core and have a fair duel with you! Whoever loses will leave Junior Sister Liu! From now on, you are not allowed to pester her again!"

He looked at Liu Ruyan, his gaze filled with infatuation and possessiveness, "Junior Sister Liu, I am sincere toward you. As long as I win against Baili Yunche, you will be mine!"

Liu Ruyan's pretty face turned cold, and without hesitation, she hooked her arm around Baili Yunche's, asserting her sovereignty:

"Who is yours? In this lifetime, I can only belong to Baili Yunche. What kind of thing do you think you are?"

Her expression was haughty and indifferent, not taking Lin Yaodong's passion to heart.

Baili Yunche gave a playful smile, reached out to pull Liu Ruyan's slender waist into his embrace, and lightly kissed her cheek, "Did you see that? Ruyan is mine, you'd better give up on that idea!"

"Impossible! Junior Sister Liu can only be mine!" Lin Yaodong raged with a distorted face,

"Baili Yunche, could it be that you don't dare to accept my challenge? Perhaps that Split-Toothed Black Bear wasn't defeated by you at all; you just happened to encounter an injured Split-Toothed Black Bear and picked up a cheap bargain! Taking stolen credit as a battle achievement is truly despicable!"

"In that case, I accept your challenge, except——"

Baili Yunche raised an eyebrow.

"Except what?" Lin Yaodong asked with a frown.

"Challenging me once takes too much time and effort, affecting my Cultivation. You must give me an appearance fee."

Baili Yunche extended three fingers and shook them,

"Thirty thousand Spirit Stones per time! Any Disciple who has the idea of challenging me can do it this way. Clearly priced, no cheating of old or young!"

"Why don't you just go rob someone?!" Lin Yaodong cursed loudly!

Thirty thousand Spirit Stones was already a considerable fortune for him, equivalent to his stipend for a whole year!

Yet Baili Yunche spoke of thirty thousand Spirit Stones in every other sentence; he was simply too detestable!

"No Spirit Stones? Then there's nothing to talk about!" Baili Yunche shrugged, making a motion to leave.

"Wait!" Lin Yaodong gritted his teeth, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes, "I'll give these Spirit Stones! But I also have a condition!"

"What condition?" Baili Yunche asked.

"Let's bet on the win or loss!" A glint of success flashed in Lin Yaodong's eyes as he sneered,

"If I win, you have to give me fifty thousand Spirit Stones! If you win, I'll give you fifty thousand Spirit Stones! How about it? Do you dare to bet?"

He calculated inwardly that although he suppressed his cultivation to the Ninth Layer of Golden Core, his Nascent Soul Stage Physical Body and Divine Sense foundation were still there. Fighting a genuine Ninth Layer of Golden Core Cultivator was practically a dimensional-reduction strike.

These fifty thousand Spirit Stones were a guaranteed profit without any loss!

Baili Yunche was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed inside.

There's such a good thing?

This Lin Yaodong was simply a wealth-delivering boy!

Inwardly pleased with himself, he remained outwardly calm as he calmly said, "No problem, I agree to this wager."
