Lián Chángyùn felt ashamed and enraged, leaving him unable to speak. It wasn't that Shen Xiáng didn't want to compete with him, but rather, he simply couldn't reach that level; this was an immense insult to him.
Seeing this, Shen Xiáng secretly chuckled inwardly. Of course he wanted the white jade lotus seed; alas, he had already registered for the higher-level competition.
Seeing his son embarrass himself in front of Gù Dōngchén and Wǔ Kāimíng, Lián Yǐngxiāo sighed silently. He knew his son's character all too well, but he figured that some humiliation wouldn't hurt him and would only make him more mature.
“Indeed, this is the proof of a five-star alchemist. For your age, being at that level in the low ranks is quite rare. I wonder which three kinds of earth-grade inferior medicinal pills you've mastered” Lián Yǐngxiāo handed over the jade plaque and asked, smiling.
All of Gù Dōngchén's group were also very curious about which three kinds of earth-grade inferior medicinal pills Shen Xiáng could make, but he mysteriously smiled instead: "Please forgive me; I'll keep this secret for now."
Gù Dōngchén fiercely knocked on his head, "You're being mysterious; just spill it out!"
Shen Xiáng stuck his tongue out at him, "I'm not going to say anything. What can you do about it"
Seeing Shen Xiáng's disrespect towards his chief, Lián Yǐngxiāo and his son were both amazed. Because Gù Dōngchén wasn't angry either, it was obvious that Shen Xiáng was highly valued by Gù Dōngchén.
Lián Chángyùn silently gritted his teeth. He wanted to reclaim a bit of respect, feeling that he'd been underestimated by Shen Xiáng now. He said, "I came here to challenge the youngest disciple of Taiwǔ Sect at its prime. Even if I can't compete with you in alchemy, let's settle this in terms of strength. Shen Xiáng, let's have a bet!"
Shen Xiáng was already sad about not being able to obtain the white jade lotus seed, but he didn't expect this boastful fellow to offer it as a gift. Not wanting to miss out on an easy win, he of course wanted to agree enthusiastically, but still took a look at Lián Yǐngxiāo and Gù Dōngchén's faces.
Lián Yǐngxiāo nodded at Gù Dōngchén, indicating that it was okay. Shen Xiáng smiled and said, "Is Brother Lián still going to use the white jade lotus seed for the bet I'm currently quite tight on funds. My chief doesn't support me when I learn alchemy, I have to pay for all the materials myself. Sigh, I've met a miserly chief, so I have to work hard by myself."
Shen Xiáng becoming a five-star alchemist through his own hard work was something Lián Chángyùn didn't believe, but Lián Yǐngxiāo did. He knew Gù Dōngchén's character well, and he was indeed very stingy. He could also see the subtle relationship between Shen Xiáng and Gù Dōngchén.
"Of course it's the white jade lotus seed. I wonder what you'll offer as collateral. You should know its value." Lián Chángyùn said, pulling out the white jade lotus seed. This was an item unique to Lotus Island, which had great uses and a long growth period; it was said that it took around seven to eight thousand years to fully grow.
Inside the Azure Dragon Mystic Realm, Shen Xiáng had obtained a giant hell lingzhi. He brought it out and smiled, saying, "This hell lingzhi's effects are the same as yours; however, mine is much larger. At least three times bigger than yours. This is the only thing I can put up as collateral."
A hell lingzhi roughly the size of his face was indeed quite intimidating. Lián Yǐngxiāo had heard before that Shen Xiáng got it from the Azure Dragon Mystic Realm, and around that time a group of True Martial Realm cultivators surrounded him for it. That same group of True Martial cultivators was also completely defeated by Shen Xiáng then.
Lián Yǐngxiāo nodded, saying "It's roughly equivalent to four white jade lotus seeds. Chángyùn, you're underbidding now!"
Shen Xiáng respected Lián Yǐngxiāo's character and didn't favor his son, plus he was also indicating that they should treat each other fairly. He took out the same amount of collateral as Lián Chángyùn.
Lián Chángyùn gritted his teeth and took out a red lotus flower. The moment it appeared, the whole small courtyard felt much hotter. Shen Xiáng didn't recognize it but knew that it was beneficial for cultivating fire.
"It's the Fire Dragon Blood Lotus. The most valuable part is those ten seeds at the top; you can eat them raw and receive great assistance with fire. Although it's not as valuable as the white jade lotus seed or hell lingzhi, it is still very precious," Su Meiyao immediately said with surprise in her voice.
"It's said that once there was a lotus flower soaked in the blood essence of Dragon God, and then it grew on its own and produced lots of fire dragon blood lotus. Lotus Island must have planted them," Long Xiye licked her lips, showing that she was very interested in stealing from Lotus Island.
Shen Xiáng took a deep breath and said, "Fire Dragon Blood Lotus. Lotus Island must indeed be the first treasury in Celestial Martial Continent's legendary wealth. Today, I've seen this and admire you very much!"
Gù Dōngchén and Wǔ Kāimíng couldn't recognize this type of item, while Shen Xiáng did. This made them admire him even more. They had heard the name of fire dragon blood lotus, but never seen it, let alone knowing that Lotus Island contained such a precious item.
“Good eyesight!” Lotus Island's owner praised, his eyes flashing with surprise. This was the first time anyone had instantly recognized it; he usually had to speak its name himself.
Lián Yǐngxiāo felt that his son still had a huge gap compared to Shen Xiáng, whether in experience or heartiness. Shen Xiáng always called him brother while addressing Lián Chángyùn as such, whereas Lián Chángyùn only called Shen Xiáng by his name. This wasn't due to Shen Xiáng respecting Lián Chángyùn, but rather because of the negative attitude that Lián Chángyùn had towards Shen Xiáng, which Shen Xiáng didn't notice and instead still treated Lián Chángyùn friendly.
Thinking about this, Lián Chángyùn sighed silently. He knew why Shen Xiáng received respect from so many disciples in the Southern Wilderness, because he knew how to respect others. His son didn't possess this trait.
Of course, Lián Yǐngxiāo also knew that Shen Xiáng was a ruthless person; maybe if he weren't around, Shen Xiáng wouldn't have given Lián Chángyùn a good face.
“So it's settled then. Let these old guys judge the outcome. Well, kid, don't use that knife; I still don't know its level of magical treasure. Anyway, it wouldn't help you kill Chángyùn anyway.” Gù Dōngchén said, since the knife could only kill around several Lián Chángyùns.
Shen Xiáng smiled, "Of course not. Fighting with weapons cannot be done freely."
“I'm declaring this beforehand. I've stepped into True Martial Realm Sixth Stage a few days ago, so my strength is higher than yours. If I let you three strikes, at least in the first three moves, I will only block or dodge. No attack.” Lián Chángyùn proudly said, feeling very proud of himself as he was still in his hundredth year old and had already reached Sixth Stage True Martial Realm. To True Martial cultivators, he was still like a child.
When someone gives you so much face, naturally Shen Xiáng would be grateful. He smiled and said, "So Brother Lián thanks you very much! I will not be taking this too far!擊力。沈翔站在一旁，冇有動手。此時他已看出風舞的實力在風慶之上。風舞已經算準了風慶會使用神甲防禦，所以她在出手後估算出了風慶被擊飛的位置。當風慶剛落地不久，風舞的拳頭已經狠狠地砸向他的頭部。轟轟轟！風舞連續幾拳，都帶著非常狂暴的震**神力，穿透了風慶的防禦，震動他的頭部。僅僅這幾拳，就讓風慶頭昏腦脹，眼冒金星。“老混蛋，看看我是誰！”風舞卸下了易容術。在迷糊中，風慶看清了風舞的樣子，吞吐著驚恐地喊...
