Ye Wushuang, unperturbed and unruffled, offered a faint smile and said, “Master Shen, are you afraid?”
Afraid?
Shen Yunrui burst into laughter immediately, “Young man, perhaps it is the Blue Cloud Pavilion, unwilling to admit their inferiority in alchemy to my Holy Dan Pavilion, that has brought you out here merely to amuse everyone?”
Ye Wushuang smiled again and replied, “Discussing alchemy is not about comparing our abilities in pill refining. If Master Shen is afraid of losing to a young man like me, I can understand.”
As these words left his lips, a cold expression flickered across Shen Yunrui’s face.
“Ye Wushuang…”
Shen Yunrui said coldly, “If you truly wish to compete with me, then let us set some rules!”
Provoked by Ye Wushuang, Shen Yunrui’s anger began to rise.
“If you are to replace Cheng Yuanbai in this discussion, and if you lose, you shall sever your own arm. If I lose, I shall do the same. Do you dare to accept?”
Upon hearing this, Mu Qiqi’s face changed dramatically. She hurried forward and snorted, “Shen Yunrui, have you come to my Blue Cloud Pavilion to cause trouble? Do you truly think we are so easy to bully?”
Mu Qiqi was indeed confident in Ye Wushuang’s extraordinary alchemical skills, but could he truly match up to Shen Yunrui?
She had been driven by anger when she pulled Ye Wushuang out, but if it came to a real alchemical competition with such a high stake as severing an arm, that was absolutely unacceptable.
“There is nothing to be afraid of!”
However, as soon as Ye Wushuang spoke, Mu Qiqi’s face changed even more drastically, and she looked at the young man beside her in disbelief.
Was this guy… out of his mind?
Ye Wushuang smiled again and said, “Severing an arm is so boring. If we are to compete, it should be more meaningful, with a greater stake.”
“How about this…”
Ye Wushuang said with a calm smile, “Whoever loses shall commit suicide on the spot!”
As these words echoed through the hall, an eerie silence fell over the entire venue.
Mu Qiqi’s eyes widened in astonishment as she stared at Ye Wushuang.
This guy… was even more arrogant than she was.
At this moment, Ye Wushuang’s eyes were fixed on Shen Yunrui.
Mu Qiqi was right.
In the past, the Qin clan, the Chu clan, and the Holy Dan Pavilion had all been the main forces in the pursuit and annihilation of the Ye clan.
Now, he had returned.
It was time to settle the score!
Since he had encountered someone from the Holy Dan Pavilion today, he would start settling the accounts right now!
Shen Yunrui, too, was shocked as he looked at the young man before him.
Was this boy mad or foolish?
Did he really dare to gamble with him?
But then, Shen Yunrui smiled faintly.
This young man was probably just putting on a brave face, terrified inside, trying to intimidate him, Shen Yunrui, with such a drastic bet as committing suicide if he lost?
“Deal!”
Shen Yunrui immediately laughed and said, “Let’s put it in writing, then!”
With a wave of his hand, Ye Wushuang prepared to proceed.
Mu Qiqi was now genuinely afraid. Ye Wushuang was not joking around.
Was he really going to compete with Shen Yunrui?
Seeing Mu Qiqi’s stunned expression, Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but smile and said, “You were the one who pulled me out. Why are you afraid now?”
“I…”
“Don’t worry,” Ye Wushuang said calmly with a smile, “No one would gamble their own life away.”
“However…” Ye Wushuang glanced at Shen Yunrui and continued, “If he doesn’t keep his word after the agreement is made…”
Mu Qiqi immediately said, “The Blue Cloud Pavilion is not a place where one can come and go as they please.”
“Alright.”
Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “Then let’s put it in writing!”
At that moment, the entire Blue Cloud Pavilion was in an uproar.
It was clear that Cheng Yuanbai was about to lose to Shen Yunrui in their competition.
But now, the Blue Cloud Pavilion had brought out a sixteen- or seventeen-year-old young man to compete with Master Shen Yunrui!
If they lost, the Blue Cloud Pavilion’s reputation would be in even greater jeopardy, and Ye Wushuang would lose his life.
Who on earth had given this young man, barely sixteen or seventeen years old, the courage to gamble in such a way?
