Chapter 2229

The proprietor of San Shi San Lou spoke sincerely and earnestly, and moreover had reason and evidence; the Jile Palace Elder did not notice any problem.

But, since all the money is coming out of my own pocket, no matter how I think about it, I feel really uncomfortable.

Seeing the Jile Palace Elder looking torn and hesitant, the proprietor of San Shi San Lou took out a space ring and, with a pained expression, said.

"Dao brother, there really is no money left in the building; this is my private treasure, immortal crystals—let's count them together."

Upon hearing that, the Jile Palace Elder raised his head, took a deep look at him, and then extended his divine sense into the space ring—but the next second his face darkened.

All that could be seen inside the space ring was a vast space with only a few scattered piles of treasures, immortal crystals.

No matter how he looked at it, it seemed shabby; the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily, his eyes filled with an indescribable complexity as he stared at the proprietor of San Shi San Lou.

"What do you mean by this?"

"I really have no money."

The proprietor of San Shi San Lou said, 'Sincerely,' showing utterly the expression of a dejected person.

Regarding that, the Jile Palace Elder said nothing more, remained silent for a long time, and finally spoke.

"I'll handle the stake; tomorrow I'll go with you to find that Ye Zhangqing kid, and tonight you take good care of the earth dragon."

Huh???

Go together?

This Jile Palace Elder still kept a trick up his sleeve; the previous two times, because of trust and also worrying about causing trouble, he had not gone.

Instead, he had the proprietor of San Shi San Lou go alone.

But both attempts failed, causing him to lose nearly everything he owned; even though this time victory seemed assured, to prevent any further mishaps, the Jile Palace Elder still decided to go together.

Even if Ye Zhangqing finds out that behind this it has always been the Jile Palace pulling strings, it doesn't matter; this time we must not let any problems arise.

I don't even need to kill that Ye Zhangqing kid; at least I need to plug the previous loophole.

As for the stake, that was naturally the proprietor of San Shi San Lou's suggestion, using their Jile Palace's territory in Wuji Xiancheng as the wager.

After thinking it over, this is the only way to get that Ye Zhangqing kid to take the bait.

Although the manager of San Shi San Lou was somewhat reluctant to the Elder of Extreme Bliss Palace's words, since he would be accompanying him, many things would become difficult to handle.

But looking at his attitude, if I refuse, he probably won't agree.

Translation: "But seeing the other party's attitude, if he refused, the Elder likely wouldn't agree."

In the end, the manager of the thirty-third floor could only nod, agreeing.

Translation: "In the end, the manager of San Shi San Lou could only nod, indicating his agreement."

Seeing that, the Elder of the Extreme Bliss Palace stood up and prepared to leave; the matter was settled, so he had to go back to prepare.

Translation: "Seeing that, the Elder of Extreme Bliss Palace rose to leave, having settled the matter, and needed to go back to prepare."

However, upon reaching the door, he seemed to recall something, turned back and reminded.

Translation: "However, upon reaching the door, he seemed to recall something, turned back and gave another reminder."

"Also, this matter must not be leaked beforehand, especially not let that Ye kid know, giving him time to prepare."

Translation: "\"Also, this matter must not be leaked beforehand, especially not let that Ye-surnamed kid know, to give him time to prepare. \""

"Don't worry, I know."

Translation: "\"Don't worry, I know. \""

"Then that's fine; make sure nothing goes wrong with the Earth Dragon side, it's best you personally take care of it."

Translation: "\"Then that's fine; make sure nothing goes wrong with the earth dragon, and it's best you personally look after it. \""

"Okay."

Translation: "\"Okay. \""

After saying that, the Extreme Bliss Palace Elder strode away, and the manager of the thirty-third floor also breathed a sigh of relief.

Translation: "After saying that, the Elder of Extreme Bliss Palace strode away, and the manager of San Shi San Lou also let out a sigh of relief."

The master's orders are getting harder to carry out, mainly because it's something one person has to handle, so the difficulty naturally keeps increasing.

Translation: "The master's orders are becoming harder to carry out, mainly because it's something one person has to do, so the difficulty naturally keeps increasing."

Ye Changqing hasn't heard about this yet; recently the cafeteria's business has been getting better.

Translation: "Ye Zhangqing's side still doesn't know about this; lately the canteen's business has been getting better and better."

Many loose cultivators know that treasures can be exchanged for meal money, and even ingredients from immortal beasts and demon beasts can be exchanged, so the number of people coming to exchange has grown considerably.

Translation: "Many loose cultivators know that treasures can be exchanged for meal money, and even some immortal beast or demonic beast ingredients can be used, so the number of people coming to exchange has increased considerably."

Many people risk their lives to obtain treasures in the Boundless Mountain Range, after all, having treasures means they can eat.

Translation: "Many people risk their lives to obtain treasures in the Wuji Shanmai, after all, having treasures means they can eat."

This naturally allowed Ye Changqing to make a big profit; after Qi Xiong and the others left, in just a few short days he accumulated another batch of treasures.

Translation: "This naturally allowed Ye Zhangqing to make a big profit; after Qi Xiong and the others left, in just a few short days he accumulated another batch of valuables."

However, Qi Xiong and the others are currently in closed-door cultivation trying to break through to the immortal realm, so they're temporarily unavailable; we can only talk after they emerge.

Translation: "However, Qi Xiong and the others are currently in closed-door cultivation breaking through to the immortal realm, so they're temporarily unavailable; we can only talk after they emerge."

"Just a little more and we'll reach the Sovereign Immortal realm."

Translation: "\"Just a bit more and we'll reach the Immortal Emperor Realm. \""

Before resting, Ye Changqing routinely checked the system panel and found that the goodwill points had accumulated quite a bit during this period.

Translation: "Before resting, Ye Zhangqing as usual checked the system panel and found that Good Review Points had accumulated quite a bit during this period."

The breakthrough to the Sovereign Immortal realm is not far off; at this rate, he estimates he'll succeed in another five or six days.

Translation: "The breakthrough to the Immortal Emperor Realm is already not far off; at this rate, he estimates another five or six days will suffice for a successful breakthrough."

Although I don't know what realm Tianlin and the others are currently in, the gap has definitely narrowed somewhat.

Translation: "Although I don't know what realm Tianlin and the others are at now, the gap has certainly narrowed somewhat."

Once Tianlin arrives in the Boundless Immortal City, we'll naturally find out.

Translation: "When Tianlin comes to Wuji Xiancheng, we'll naturally find out."

It was an ordinary night; the next day, Ye Changqing went to the cafeteria as usual, but as soon as he entered, he saw a group consisting of the manager of the thirty-third floor and the Elder of the Extreme Bliss Palace.

Translation: "On an ordinary night, the next day Ye Zhangqing came to the canteen as usual, but as soon as he entered, he saw a group consisting of the manager of San Shi San Lou and the Elder of Extreme Bliss Palace."

They arrived before Ye Changqing and had already been waiting in the shop early.

Translation: "They had arrived before Ye Zhangqing and were already waiting in the shop."

Upon seeing Ye Changqing appear, Hongyue hurried forward and sent a voice transmission.

Translation: "Upon seeing Ye Zhangqing appear, Hongyue hurried forward and sent a mental message."

"Young Master, they came early this morning, saying they were waiting for you, we......................"

Translation: "\"Young master, they came early this morning, saying they were waiting for you, we...................... \""

Hongyue felt a bit guilty, but there was nothing she could do; the manager of the thirty-third floor and the Extreme Bliss Palace Elder were beyond her ability to handle, and if they didn't leave, she couldn't do anything.

Translation: "Hongyue felt somewhat guilty, but there was nothing she could do; the manager of San Shi San Lou and the Elder of Extreme Bliss Palace were beyond her ability to handle, and if they wouldn't leave, she couldn't either."

Fortunately, during this time they didn't do anything outrageous; aside from the Extreme Bliss Palace Elder's murderous aura being somewhat frightening, nothing else happened—they just waited quietly for Ye Changqing to arrive.

Translation: "Fortunately, during this time they didn't do anything excessive; aside from the Elder of Extreme Bliss Palace's murderous aura being somewhat frightening, nothing else was amiss—they simply waited quietly for Ye Zhangqing to arrive."

Hearing that, Ye Changqing said with a smile.

Translation: "Hearing that, Ye Zhangqing smiled and said."

"It's fine; I'll handle it."

Translation: "\"It's fine; I'll just come. \""

After sending Hongyue away, Ye Changqing stepped forward to the crowd and spoke.

Translation: "After seeing Hongyue off, Ye Zhangqing stepped forward to face the crowd and spoke."

"Is there something you need? If you're just here to eat, please come back at mealtime."

Translation: "\"Is there something you need? If it's for a meal, please come back at mealtime. \""

Obviously they came with ill intent; as soon as Ye Changqing finished speaking, that Extreme Bliss Palace Elder gave him a grim look and said.

Translation: "Clearly they came with ill intent; as soon as Ye Zhangqing finished speaking, that Elder of Extreme Bliss Palace said with a grim face."

"Surname Ye, cut the nonsense; today we've come to challenge you—do you dare to accept?"

Translation: "\"You surnamed Ye, cut the nonsense; today we are here to challenge you—do you dare to accept? \""

"A challenge?"

Translation: "\"A challenge? \""

"Again?" Upon hearing this, Ye Changqing unconsciously glanced at the manager of the thirty-third floor; this is the third time—what's going on with them?

Translation: "\"Again? \" Upon hearing that, Ye Zhangqing unconsciously glanced at the manager of San Shi San Lou—this was the third time; what's going on with them?"

However, before Ye Changqing could respond, the Extreme Bliss Palace Elder blurted out the wager and the challenge rules, then sneered and asked.

Translation: "But before Ye Zhangqing could reply, the Elder of Extreme Bliss Palace blurted out the stake and the challenge rules all at once, then ended with a mocking question."

"How about this: if you win, my Extreme Bliss Palace will voluntarily withdraw from the Boundless Immortal City—let's see if you have the guts."

Translation: "\"How about this: if you win, Extreme Bliss Palace will voluntarily withdraw from Wuji Xiancheng—let's see if you have the guts. \""

Needless to say, the wager offered by the Extreme Bliss Palace Elder is indeed tempting.

Translation: "It must be said, the stake offered by the Elder of Extreme Bliss Palace is indeed tempting."

If you win, you can not only drive the Extreme Bliss Palace out of the Boundless Immortal City, but also annex all of their territory there in one fell swoop.

Translation: "If victorious, not only can we drive Extreme Bliss Palace out of Wuji Xiancheng, but we can also in one fell swoop annex their territory there."

Now after all lines, output

The Young Master Agreed to Him

By then, the Dao One Immortal Sect will be able to become the strongest power within Wuji Xiancheng.

This is truly a bet placed on one's heart.

But for this beast fight, I have no beast companions at all; if they dare to come, they must be prepared.

If I agree, there's obviously no chance of winning.

So, even facing this tempting bet, Ye Zhangqing still didn't agree; at a glance, it's clearly a trap.

But before Ye Zhangqing could refuse, the voice of the San Shi San Lou shopkeeper suddenly sounded in his mind; he glanced over without changing expression, and the other party's eyes twitched slightly, meeting his gaze for a moment.

The San Shi San Lou shopkeeper used a secret technique to send a mental message, while the Extreme Bliss Palace elder beside him noticed nothing amiss.

As for the content of the mental message, it was simple: just let Ye Zhangqing agree.

"Young master, my lord is Tianlin Young Master; if we accept, this battle is sure to be won."

Huh???

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhangqing also froze; the boss behind San Shi San Lou is Tianlin? I've never heard of him before—when did this kid open a tavern?
