Chapter 968 Going Upstairs
"Simple, the casino bets on big and small, we bet on odd and even!"
Xu Zhou chuckled as he spoke, then pointed at a peach tree at the end of the street.
"Liang Qi Envoy might as well take a guess, are the peach blossoms on that peach tree an odd number or an even number?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present frowned slightly. After cultivating to their level, they only need to release their spiritual consciousness. They know the entire Langya City like the palm of their hand, let alone a peach tree. How could they not know that peach tree? How many peach blossoms are there on the tree?
When Xu Zhou proposed this betting method, it was obviously not a bet, but a fighting skill.
Liang Yan smiled slightly, his consciousness had quietly reached out, and the scenery on the peach tree came directly into his mind. There were thirteen peach blossoms in full bloom, sixty-three peach blossoms in bud, and the remaining flowers that had been eaten by birds and insects. Seven flowers.
"Since Fellow Daoist Xu is so elegant, Liang will accompany you."
Liang Yan smiled and asked casually: "Are you coming first or me?"
"It's up to you as you please. This Langya City is the territory of Liang Qishi, so naturally you come first." Xu Zhou said with a kind smile.
"In that case, let Liang guess an odd number."
"Okay, then I'll have an even number."
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, their right hands shrouded in their sleeves made seals at the same time, and two almost transparent rays of light burst out, running towards the peach tree at the end of the street at the same time.
Among the people present in the Chamber of Commerce, those monks in the Juyuan Realm knew that the two men were secretly cheating, but due to the difference in realms, they could not see their methods at all. They could only hear a slight sound of wind, but otherwise There is no clue at all outside.
But those few monks above the Golden Core Realm could see it clearly.
What Xu Zhou used was a set of flying needle magic weapons, with a total of one hundred and sixty-eight. Not only were they as thin as a hair, they could cut through the air silently, but they could also hide the breath. Monks below the Golden Core realm would not be able to detect the magic weapon at all. Spiritual power fluctuates.
Anyone who is familiar with him knows that this is the "Xing Luo Needle", which was made based on the movement of the stars in the Nine Heavens. It is very powerful and can be said to be Xu Zhou's method of suppressing the situation.
Xu Zhou's use of this magic weapon is enough to show that he attaches great importance to Liang Yan.
As for the silver light emitted by Liang Yan, although everyone could not see its specific appearance, the sword energy around it was condensed. They knew without guessing that it must be a flying sword!
The two of them each controlled their magic weapons. The "Star Luo Needle" and "Dingguang Sword" were both incredibly fast, and they reached the top of the peach tree in just an instant.
At this time, Xu Zhou's right hand secret secretly changed in his sleeve. Half of the one hundred and sixty-eight flying needles flew out to block Liang Yan's flying sword, while the other half flew straight towards the peach blossoms on the tree.
Liang Yan sneered and launched the "Mirror Flower, Water Moon" move. The fixed light sword just flicked and disappeared without a trace.
Xu Zhou was startled and quickly looked around, only to see the light-fixing sword appearing quietly above the peach tree. It arrived first and stopped the flying needle that he was flying towards the peach blossom.
when! when! when!
A series of sounds of gold and iron clashing sounded, and the Dingguang Sword, wrapped in sword energy, fought with the Xingluo Needles who wanted to cut off the peach blossoms.
The originally peaceful peach tree was filled with sword energy and flying needles. For a moment, a whirlwind rolled up on the ground, making the leaves rustle.
While the two were fighting each other, they also had to control their spiritual power to prevent the aftermath of the fight from cutting off the entire peach tree. The use of their own magic weapons could be said to be extremely wonderful.
After fighting like this for half a stick of incense, Xu Zhou suddenly heard a muffled groan, and Xu Zhou stepped back three steps in a row. Then he raised his hand and waved, and all one hundred and sixty-eight star needles on the peach tree flew upside down. Come back, everything disappeared into his sleeves.
But he himself was pale, with a heavy sigh in his chest, and he actually opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"What a set of shadowless swordsmanship! I can't see through what is real or what is fake!"
Xu Zhou was secretly frightened. His "Xing Luo Needle" was made by referring to the movement of stars in the Nine Heavens, and combined with his own acupuncture magical power, its power cannot be underestimated.
However, the opponent's flying sword was even weirder, almost without a trace, allowing him to find no flaws. Moreover, the sword moves were either false or real, cutting off the connection between the flying needles from time to time, making it impossible for him to follow the trajectory of the stars in the sky.
The more Xu Zhou fought, the more anxious he became. As time passed, he was forced to let out a sigh of relief in his chest. He knew that if he did not take back the magic weapon, he would probably suffer a big loss.
Seeing that he had withdrawn all the Xingluo Needles, Liang Yan also made a gesture to withdraw his sword. The street corner where the wind had blown the sand gradually returned to calm.
The peach blossoms on the peach tree had all withered at this moment, leaving only a solitary one hanging on the highest branch.
"Odd number, it seems that I have won, give in!" Liang Yan said calmly.
At this moment, Xu Zhou had calmed down. After hearing this, he smiled bitterly, waved his hands to the people behind him, and then respectfully said: "Please come upstairs, Commander Liang Qi!"
"Please ask Ambassador Liang to come upstairs!" The other monks present also said respectfully at the same time.
Liang Yan nodded slightly and without saying anything else, he led Luo Wu and Lin Yue directly into Mingyue Tower.
Mingyue Tower is unique and elegant. Because it has been reserved by people from the three major branches, the first floor is empty and there are no other monks here.
Going up the stairs, I smelled a strong aroma before I had even walked a few steps.
Liang Yan frowned slightly, but his steps were neither fast nor slow. After a while, he climbed to the second floor of Mingyue Tower.
I saw that the windows on this floor had been closed, and the hall was slightly dim. Eighteen beautiful, enchanting women in red skirts were dancing in the middle with graceful and fascinating postures.
Not only are these women beautiful in appearance, but what is even more rare is that they all have cultivation levels in the Juyuan Realm.
At the back of the hall, there is a mahogany chair, covered with snow-white spirit animal skin, and a tall female revisionist is lazily leaning on the recliner.
This girl is wearing colorful clothes and a phoenix crown on her head. Her graceful and delicate body is hidden in the dress as thin as cicada wings. Although her pretty face is not painted with makeup, she still has a graceful and luxurious temperament.
"It turns out that the flag bearer has arrived, and I am polite."
The woman said and bowed lightly, but she didn't seem to have any intention of getting down from the recliner.
Liang Yan didn't need to ask any more questions. Luo Wu had already sent a message from behind: "She is Bei Yanfu, the worshiper of the Qishui City branch. It is said that she practices magic arts such as Hehuan. She is good at bewitching the mind and making people..."
Before Luo Wu finished speaking, Bei Yanfu suddenly sat up from the recliner and put a plain hand to his ear, as if eavesdropping.
"Let me hear it, is there anyone speaking ill of the slave family in Liang Qi Shi's ears?"
Luo Wu was shocked. Although he knew that she could not hear his voice transmission, he still subconsciously shut up and did not continue talking.
At this time, I heard Bei Yanfu chuckle and say: "Master Flag Bearer, you are late. I have prepared some small gifts for you, please accept it."
