Chapter: 5349
Leaf Chen spoke coldly: "What's going on? Are you afraid now? You're not that formidable, are you? After all, you claim to be a heavenly master, so why would you back down from such a trivial matter?"
Hong Changqing scowled: "Kid, I'm Hong Changqing. There's no way I'd back down!"
He then changed his tone and laughed haughtily: "Old man, I almost got taken in by your little tricks! Yesterday, Shi Tianzi volunteered to compete with me, and he had already agreed to bet against himself. According to the rules, I should be the one to take over this temple! But now he's hiding like a turtle and doesn't dare show his face, and you're here boasting about it, trying to seek revenge? And what's more, I've already won this temple, so why would I bet again? What do you have to bet with me?"
Leaf Chen laughed: "Old codger, we both know someone who wants to take control. But I'm not going to bother with that. Just now, I secretly recorded the entire process using a camera. You're not willing to fight back now, are you? Don't worry, I'll upload these videos to the internet immediately, and I'll make sure they get posted on foreign networks too! This temple is just worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, so what do you gain if you take it?"
Leaf Chen then asked Chen Xiaoshuang: "Xiaoshuang, did you record everything for me?"
Chen Xiaoshuang nodded hastily: "Yes, Master Leaf. I recorded everything!"
As he spoke, she removed the black leather bag from her side and opened it, pulling out several motion cameras. She looked at the bag and found that there were four or five circular holes on it, which seemed to be dug out for the camera lenses.
Only the camera bag and the leather bag were black, so Hong Changqing didn't pay attention to Chen Xiaoshuang's body at all. It was only now that he realized that this young one had set up a trap for him!
If I agree to give in again, these dozen women will definitely expose me, and their ages are all uncertain, which will indirectly prove that I made false claims yesterday and will lead to my downfall; or if I don't agree, this young one will send the footage online, and I'll be equally ruined.
But I can't kill someone off without a trace in front of so many people. If I do, I'll probably be wanted nationwide, and if I escape from Huaxia, I'll probably be wanted globally, with the same outcome.
It was only then that Hong Changqing realized just how malicious this young one's intentions were!
He thought carefully: "If I confront this young one head-on, we'll both end up in a state of ruin. Rather than that, I should try to make friends with him, and it will be like getting my hands on the Ji Sect's treasures without any loss for myself..."
Thinking this through, Hong Changqing took a deep breath, pretending to be magnanimous, and said: "Alright, alright, I see you're putting so much thought into this, which is just trying to help that Shi Tianshi leave me the Ji Sect, and I won't bother with it!"
As he spoke, he stroked his beard with one hand and pulled up his long robes with the other, walking out with a haughty stride.
Leaf Chen couldn't let him get away with this; he directly blocked his path and ridiculed: "Old thing, you're panicking, yesterday you plotted to harm Shi Shengyi, which has already affected Shi Shengyi's reputation in Jinling. Now you're willing to just walk away, what kind of cheap trick is this?"
He panicked and questioned him: "What do you mean by that!"
At this moment, Hong Changqing was already regretting his actions and had fixed his gaze on Shi Tianzhi's Ji Sect!
Earlier, he hadn't thought it would get to this point where he would be in such a helpless situation.
As a result, he now wanted to surrender, but the other party refused to let him.
Leaf Chen looked at Hong Changqing and said with a smile: "I heard Shi Shengyi say that yesterday you bet with Shi Shengyi on an elixir, and the wager was one cauldron. I see that pouch on your belt is full, and it must be filled with it!"
Hong Changqing took a step back in shock, covering his pouch, and blurted out: "Do you want my elixir?"
Leaf Chen chuckled: "You're saying it's because I want it? That doesn't make sense! Yesterday, you bet on the elixir, but then you cheated by taking it. According to reason, if you cheat, you should lose and admit defeat, at which point you'd have to give back the wager. What I'm saying is reasonable, isn't it?"
Hong Changqing was furious, gritting his teeth: "Don't try to deceive me here! When has my old self ever lost? Yesterday, I won, but today I'm letting it slide. But you're still trying to get something from me, which is simply outrageous!"
Having said that, Hong Changqing's veins bulged with anger, shouting at Leaf Chen: "Young one! My old self has tolerated you for a long time. Be wise and clear the road ahead. If you continue to harass me, don't blame me if I take drastic measures!"
Leaf Chen hummed and said with a smile: "There's nothing going on here that concerns you people. You can leave." JrNovels.com
