Just now, Jiang Xiaobai had pinched Ao Cheng’s arm hard and kept making eye contact with him, gesturing for him to trust him.
Now that things had escalated to this point, Ao Cheng had no way out. If Jiang Xiaobai were bluffing, he would undoubtedly lose face, and that was a fact.
So Ao Cheng decided to put everything on the line.
After all, whether he lost face big or small, he’d still lose face.
But what if Jiang Xiaobai really had cultivated Qi in his body?
This thought sparked uncertainty in Ao Cheng’s heart.
In a situation with no way out, this was his last struggle.
“Ao Cheng, stop being ridiculous,” Ao Yan scolded angrily.
“Sister, stay out of this. I can’t believe this commoner is causing trouble over a mere hundred thousand spirit stones.
Worst case, I’ll just… I’ll cultivate in solitude on the back mountain for a few years!”
Ao Cheng waved his hand, declaring this in a quite domineering manner.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Ao Tianheng, who was on the side, shook his head while clapping, “What a terrific performance. Since you’re so willing to hand me money, I’ll take it gladly. ”
Ao Cheng gritted his teeth fiercely and immediately turned his head towards Jiang Xiaobai with a wild look in his eyes.
His meaning was clear: if you dare to trick me, I promise you’ll pay dearly.
“Elder Seven, let’s do this.” Jiang Xiaobai said, extending his hand with a smile.
The onlookers around had scornful smiles on their faces, prepared to witness Jiang Xiaobai being exposed.
Ao Tianheng was already planning how he would spend the hundred thousand top-quality spirit stones that were simply handed to him.
Then, Elder Seven took Jiang Xiaobai’s wrist and poured his Qi into it to inspect his dantian, the most effective way to ascertain a person’s cultivation level.
Though it’s possible for someone to temporarily boost their cultivation or fake it with the right elixir, it would be easily exposed by someone as experienced as Elder Seven.
However, in just a moment, Elder Seven suddenly opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief.
“Hahaha, what’s the matter? Got exposed, didn’t you?”
Ao Tianheng immediately burst into laughter when he saw this, but his laughter quickly ceased in the next second.
“You actually attracted Qi into your body?”
Elder Seven’s normally steady smile began to shake, as if he had seen a treasure. His shock was paramount.
Jiang Xiaobai smiled and nodded, “Of course, otherwise why would I ask you to check?”
In an instant, all the people around felt stunned. Ao Tianheng was even petrified on the spot.
Ao Yan on the side had furrowed eyebrows. She appeared next to Jiang Xiaobai in a flash and poured her Qi into him as well, discovering the truth of the situation.
Her gaze toward Jiang Xiaobai was then filled with shock.
He actually attracted Qi into his body?
“How do you feel now, Ao Tianheng, surprised?” Ao Cheng was the first to shout, “Just so you know, I knew all along that this commoner’s cultivation was real. The fact that Elder Three personally verified it leaves no room for doubt. Everything that happened just now, I was just messing with you!”
“How about that, is your mind buzzing right now?”
“Ahahahaha!”
The place was dead silent, only the sound of Ao Cheng’s wild laughter echoed.
Jiang Xiaobai grimaced, now fully understanding just how shameless Ao Cheng was. Really, he could even come up with such an excuse?
It was as if the person, who moments ago looked like he wanted to slap himself to death, was not Ao Cheng!
At this moment, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t bother rebuking Ao Cheng but looked towards Ao Tianheng with a happy smirk: “Young Master Tianheng, well, do you have any excuses now?”
“You… this… it’s impossible! Even if a god descended to the mortal world or an immortal reincarnated, they couldn’t cultivate Qi so quickly!” Ao Tianheng went into a mad rage.
He just couldn’t understand why this happening!
This made no sense at all.
“I was just going to let you off with washing some clothes to save face. But since things escalated to this, oh well, what a pity.” Jiang Xiaobai sighed as if he felt remorse about the situation.
This almost made Ao Tianheng vomit blood. He pointed at Jiang Xiaobai, unable to utter a word.
“A bet’s a bet, right? A month of washing clothes and ten slaps.” Jiang Xiaobai said, already starting to warm up and loosen his muscles.
Ao Tianheng turned ghostly white, grinding his teeth and clenched his fists.
“Or how about we forget about the slaps?” someone shouted from the side.
“Right, you dare to raise your hand against Young Master Tianheng, who do you think you are?”
“Forgive when possible. Don’t take this too far.”
Many people started to speak up for Ao Tianheng, trying to downplay the situation.
After all, Ao Tianheng was a prestigious figure in the Dragon Valley, and they couldn’t just sit by and watch.
Otherwise, if Ao Tianheng sought retaliation later, they would be in trouble too.The most uptodat𝓮 n𝒐vels are published on n0velbjn((.))com
Upon hearing those words, Jiang Xiaobai, who had been initially smiling, suddenly turned grim.
“You are really pushing your luck!”
Jiang Xiaobai shouted angrily: “Now you want me to spare some room? Are you mentally deficient? Did you consider sparing Ao Tianheng just now?”
“If I had lost today, would any of you have let Ao Tianheng let me off the hook?
Do you think I’m a pushover?”
Once he finished, Jiang Xiaobai coldly looked at Ao Tianheng: “The second most powerful person in Dragon Valley, you won’t admit defeat today?”
“You!”
Ao Tianheng was somewhat speechless. It’s not that he couldn’t accept his loss,
but the idea of losing to a commoner like this was inexpressibly infuriating and unpalatable to him!
He has to wash clothes for a commoner? And also get slapped by him? “Hurry up, forget about the washing clothes thing for now. I’m here to slap your face today.”
Ao Cheng rolled up his sleeves, turned to Jiang Xiaobai with anticipation in his eyes, implying- -could I have a few rounds of slapping too?
Given the opportunity to improve relations, Jiang Xiaobai surely wouldn’t let it go.
“I’ll give you half!” Jiang Xiaobai chuckled, also rolling up his sleeves.
Together, the two of them moved forward, rolling up their sleeves and bearing shameless smiles.
This spectacle left everyone around stunned, even the typically composed Elder Seven was momentarily puzzled.
“What are you doing, dare to touch me, are you looking for death?” Ao Tianheng roared again and again.
It was in vain, as Ao Cheng lunged forward and slapped him right on the cheek.
Slap!
The crisp slap sounded incredibly loud.
“Feels good!”
Ao Cheng shouted, ecstatic, raised his hand ready to deliver the next slap. Ao Tianheng finally reacted, immediately bursting out in a rage, his body erupting with the peak aura of a late-stage Yuan Infant cultivator.
“Ao Cheng, you dare!” Ao Tianheng roared.
Ao Cheng was really a Second Generation Ancestor, not recognizing anyone when he started to clean up, nor caring about anything.
“I’m here today to smack you!”
Ao Cheng roared, slapping him again while shouting, “Elder Seven is here, what, do you want to fight back?”
