Chapter 116: Aren’t You Participating?

All the Cultivators around Lin Xun were deep in discussion.

Although the conversation between Su Ying and Sikong Wangxing was not loud, it wasn’t blocked by a Magic Formation, and they were talking openly. Furthermore, everyone present was at least a Cultivator of the Dragon Gate Realm, so hearing them was easy.

However, everyone felt confused by their conversation, not understanding the meaning of the so-called “agreement.”

Nor did they understand why Su Ying, that merciless demoness, spoke to Sikong Wangxing in a tone of negotiation.

They understood even less why Sikong Wangxing’s final words carried a woman’s unique persistence, even a lifelong resolve.

Of course, they didn’t understand.

After all, no one could have imagined that the Old City Lord of Tianji City would agree to marry his granddaughter off to the Demon Son Lin Xun of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect!

Everyone knew the Old City Lord of Tianji City doted on his granddaughter the most, so how could he possibly push her into the fire?

Furthermore, the Old City Lord of Tianji City had revealed the news that Lin Xun was still alive just before he died.

Didn’t that mean the Old City Lord wanted everyone in the world to search for Lin Xun and nip him in the bud before his equipment was fully formed?

Therefore, no one would connect Sikong Wangxing and Lin Xun.

Let alone them, even Lin Xun himself found it very strange.

Even if the Old Master was a veteran Ascension Realm Cultivator, it was impossible for him to threaten the Old City Lord of Tianji City into marrying his granddaughter to him, so it could only have been an agreement between the two of them.

But logically speaking, if the Old City Lord of Tianji City married his granddaughter to him, there was no reason to harm him right before his Immortal passing.

Could it be that the Old City Lord of Tianji City regretted it before he died?

But if he regretted it before he died, he could have told Wang Xing, “That marriage contract is void, you don’t have to marry that great Devil Head.”

An Immortal Realm Cultivator can still perform divination before death, so how could he not say a single word?

So why exactly is this?

Lin Xun always felt there was a hidden reason.

But no matter the hidden reason, this marriage still had to be canceled.

It’s already the year 1202, who talks about marriage contracts anymore?

Besides, he already had a wife. Was Sikong Wangxing going to marry him and become a Secondary Wife?

If the Old City Lord knew his most beloved granddaughter married a Devil Head and became a Secondary Wife…

Good heavens, his coffin lid probably wouldn’t stay closed.

At the very front of the Secret Realm entrance, when Sikong Wangxing said those words, the atmosphere seemed to freeze, and killing intent even emanated from Su Ying.

This was the first time! Su Ying showed killing intent for the first time.

Jiang Qingshang pulled Sikong Wangxing behind her and looked at Su Ying without the slightest fear.

The two greatest beauties of the righteous and demonic factions faced each other, their beautiful eyes locked. Cherry blossoms drifted down from unknown origins, and purple Immortal radiance filled the air.

For a moment, everyone felt slightly dazed, as if what they were witnessing was not a confrontation between the righteous and demonic factions, but a living painting of beauties.

“Ya ya ya, I didn’t expect that a confrontation between the world’s two greatest beauties would be such a magnificent scene, worthy of an Immortal painting!”

Just then, a crisp voice sounded.

Lin Xun followed the crowd’s gaze and turned his head. Young Master She of the Demon Race World, with his delicate features, had arrived again.

To be honest, if this Young Master She wasn’t a girl, then this Young Master She would definitely look great in women’s clothes!!!

Sure enough, various discussions erupted around Lin Xun.

“Is he a man or a woman?”

“I’m not sure, but why do I feel like this person looks better than a woman!”

“Must be a man. Women aren’t that flat!”

“No way! They must be a girl! If they look this good in men’s clothes, wouldn’t they soar if they wore women’s clothes!”

“But what if he really is a man?”

“Then wouldn’t that be wonderful?”

“Brother, one should at least, but shouldn’t…”

Listening to the discussions around him, Lin Xun couldn’t help but inwardly complain.

“Brother, you don’t understand. A man in women’s clothes is the real…”

Lin Xun: “…”

Lin Xun didn’t want to talk to these guys anymore. Although people’s ‘windows’ are free, they shouldn’t…

“Since everyone has arrived, let’s open the Secret Realm.”

Su Ying retracted her gaze from Sikong Wangxing. The killing intent from moments ago instantly vanished without a trace, as if it had never existed.

“No rush, Miss Su. Since the two Worlds have finally gathered, how about we play a game?” Young Master She closed his paper fan.

“Oh? What game?”

Su Ying still wore a smile, but it made people feel incredibly cold.

“The game is this: the two Worlds make a wager. We see who brings out the most valuable treasure from the Secret Realm this time. Whoever wins can ask the other side for one thing. How about that?”

“What if I refuse to give it?” Jiang Qingshang was as cold as a mountain snow lotus.

“If you refuse, then we switch to another treasure. If you still refuse, we switch again, until the other party agrees,” Young Master She said with a smile.

“That’s somewhat interesting. My Ten Thousand Demon Sect agrees.” Su Ying nodded, her gaze sweeping over Sikong Wangxing, Ruo Wangchen, and Jiang Qingshang.

“I’d like to see what tricks the Demon Race World is playing.” Jiang Qingshang didn’t seem to care about Su Ying’s playful gaze.

“Miss Sikong, are you participating?”

“I…”

“Wang Xing is not participating.” Jiang Qingshang pulled Sikong Wangxing’s small hand. Sikong Wangxing glanced at Sister Qingshang beside her.

Lin Xun felt a certain ‘yuri’ vibe.

Speaking of which, Jiang Qingshang utterly despises every man. Could it be because Jiang Qingshang likes eating oranges and lilies?

“Wang Xing is not participating.” Sikong Wangxing shook her head.

Originally, Sikong Wangxing wanted to participate with Jiang Qingshang. Whatever Qingshang did, Wang Xing would follow suit.

But since Sister Qingshang didn’t want her to participate, then she wouldn’t.

Moreover, she came to protect Sister Qingshang and prevent others from hurting her.

“What about Miss Ruo?” Young Master She turned his head and asked.

Ruo Wangchen shook her head, raised her beautiful head, and looked directly at Young Master She with her pristine eyes.

Even Young Master She couldn’t maintain eye contact with Ruo Wangchen for too long, quietly shifting his gaze, seemingly afraid that Wang Chen would discern something.

Wang Chen: “I only have one treasure, and I don’t want to give him to you.”

“Very well.” Young Master She nodded. “Hu Si.”

“Yes.” Hu Si brought out a huge scroll and displayed it in the air.

Young Master She faced the Cultivators from the various Schools:

“This Young Master’s blood is precious. Since this is just a small game, we won’t make any Blood Oaths. This scroll is a supreme treasure of my Demon Race World. Those who wish to participate only need to inject a trace of spiritual power into it.

If someone wants to renege later and refuses to give any treasure, there is no punishment, but Cultivators below the Ascension Realm will have to reveal their deepest secret.”

“Hmph, is the Sword Pavilion afraid of you?”

The Disciples and Elders of the Sword Pavilion all injected a trace of spiritual power.

“Penglai Island will also join!”

“I want to see what this neither-man-nor-woman fellow is up to!”

Many Cultivators from various Sects and Rogue Cultivators participated one after another.

Since they could renege, revealing their deepest secret was fine. As long as they were thick-skinned, if others learned about their strange ‘windows’… then so be it. It’s not like they would lose a piece of flesh.

For a time, everyone except Wang Chen, Wang Xing, and Lin Xun participated in the wager.

Just when Lin Xun thought he could slip through unnoticed, Young Master She gave a sly smile and looked in Lin Xun’s direction:

“Brother Diao Zhen Da, aren’t you participating?”
