Cultivation—Stand above the Heaven Chapter 163

Duan Lengyan exchanged glances with Wu Qiujun, both looking bitterly seriously. Duan Lengyan attempted to let Tian deputize for her to inflict an insult on Wandong.

However, Wandong was unexpectedly sophisticated than she assumed. Wandong actually didn't take any notice of Tian and even roared at him till he went scared to death.

In contrast, she failed to humiliate Wandong. To add insult to injury, Tian only helped to set off Wandong's nobility and confidence to advantage.

Wandong was right about it — Tian behaved just like a contemptible clown.

Duan Lengyan waved her hand, signaling a start, "Open the raw stones!"

A total of thirty-three stonemasons, excluding Tian, got a move on.

The vibe of the showing room went increasingly tense — the result was about come out.

As a Chinese old saying went, large stores always bully their customers. The Tianbao Mansion was a perfect example of this kind. The Tiezhan guys had been riding the high horse for long, looking down upon people from other countries, including the Qingyun Empire.

All the purchasers at the scene were from the Qingyun Empire. At least two of thirds of them had suffered their sneers. Hence, each was on tenterhooks, waiting for a golden opportunity to vent their anger as if it was them who participated the bet in person.

Wu Qiujun glared at Wandong, "Damned lad, it couldn't be real if there were no blood steel contained in any of the raw stones."

Wandong sneered, "Believe it or not. You can't stop it from happening, because the horse has already bolted."

"Very well said! It just resembles your doomed life. Even God himself can't stop Death taking you away. Get the stones opened!"

With Wu Qiujun's mandate, thirty-three dabbers went up in the air, giving off strikingly sanguine rays.

What a spectacle! No one had ever borne witness to a big stonemason team opening raw stones simultaneously.

However, no one cared to appreciate the awe-inspiring scene. All cast keen eyes on the broken raw stones.

Among the audience, Wu Yang, Leng Yuecui and Zong Qi were the most nervous. Although they were not afraid of death at all, they couldn't come to terms with gratuitous death. It felt as if the thirty-three dabbers had darted into their necks instead of the raw stones of the blood steel.

The thirty-three hacks synced, letting out a simultaneous sound of a crack. All the raw stones broke into two halves.

The appearance of the blood steel always went hand in hand with reddish sparkles. However, none of the raw stones looked like that. The cross-sections of the raw stones turned out greyish awful bores. They were just similar to the regular stones scattered around on the ground.

"Hiss," all present took a deep breath — a cliff-hanger had come.

The greyish cross-sections used to be a sign of desperation for the purchasers. However, in that scenario, they cast a tinge of delightful flush on the audience's countenance.

As the thirty-three raw stones broke into two, Wu Qiujun hastened to look over them. However, he failed to see even a single gleam of a scarlet ray. He twisted his eyebrows, utterly baffled, "Not even one piece of the blood steel?"

On a normal occasion, there was supposed to be at least three pieces of blood steel. Oddly enough, there happened to be none.

Duan Lengyan clenched her fists. Once a piece of the blood steel was out, she would press Wandong to commit suicide. However, the blinding greyish broken raw stones threw cold water on her from head to toe.

While Wu Qiujun and Duan Lengyan were suffering from the unreasonable loss, Wu Yang and Zong Qi were in high spirits. They almost broke into applause in extreme ecstasy.

As anxious as Leng Yuecui had been since Wandong raised his proposal, she couldn't help but let the corners of her mouth go upward. She had changed her mind completely. Actually, she was in the dark about the super exciting mechanism Wandong employed, nor did she know the reason why Wandong could have managed such a full-proof choreography. However, she had one hundred percent faith in Wandong — he was gonna be the winner of the bet.
