Chapter 145 The sons of the Great Xia Dynasty have their own traditions!
"Oh? Young friend, do you truly mean this?"
"really!"
In fact, Li Jie discovered that the Celestial Venerable was performing divination, but since he had already lied, he could only continue to pretend.
Therefore, he answered almost without hesitation, relying solely on his intuition.
After a short while, the Celestial Venerable lowered his left hand, which had been used for divination, and spoke with a mocking expression.
"It's not a secret. So what if you admit it, young friend? Do you really think this old Taoist priest can't figure it out?"
You know what, the Celestial Venerable's words already contained an element of seduction.
If Xian'er hadn't helped him calm down, he might have actually blurted it out!
"What is it? Celestial Venerable, please speak frankly. I truly do not understand what you mean."
Damn!
He almost fell into their trap. If this were his first time interacting with the Celestial Venerable, he probably wouldn't have been so wary.
But during this period, he had appeared in the Celestial Venerable's sight more than once.
And they even made a bet with him.
Based on his understanding of this old man in plain clothes.
This guy is a real old rascal; he doesn't have any bad intentions, but he always knows how to cause trouble...
If he fell for his trick, Li Jie was afraid that he would directly assign him a mission to hunt down some extraterrestrial god.
After all, obtaining that Wind God Pearl wasn't so easy...
Indeed, Li Jie's concerns were entirely correct.
He said that purely to make this white-haired boy who wields the Zhuxian and Juexian swords owe him a favor.
After all, the Heavenly Court has not yet been fully repaired, and they cannot possibly escape into the mist to hunt down their enemies.
Therefore, Li Jie, who wields a celestial sword with the power to slay gods, became his target for recruitment.
But it's a pity...
Because he was enveloped by the sword intent of the Zhuxian Sword, Li Jie revealed that Yang Jin was actually Yang Jian.
The time was too long ago; even someone as powerful as a Celestial Venerable could not go back in time and penetrate the envelopment of the Immortal Execution Sword Intent to understand the truth of these facts.
I said those things just now purely to provoke him.
But Li Jie's reaction was something he hadn't expected; he was incredibly unyielding...
"It's alright, but... it seems you've won this bet, young friend..."
"In that case, the old Taoist will also fulfill his promise."
After the Heavenly Venerable finished speaking, the Great Emperor of Fengdu was also curious about this so-called 'bet'.
"May I ask, Heavenly Venerable, what exactly was the bet you made with this brat? Why would he resort to such unscrupulous means to sever the protective barrier of Fengdu's laws and forcefully invade my divine kingdom..."
"That one..."
At this point, a hint of embarrassment appeared on the Celestial Venerable's face.
“I made a bet with this kid: whoever catches and eliminates the little rat hiding in the North first.”
"And what is the stake?"
In fact, the Emperor of Fengdu had already guessed that their bet was related to Yama, who was hiding in Fengdu.
But he really couldn't think of any bet that would make this kid so reckless as to fly here on his sword.
After saying this, Yuanshi Tianzun's expression became even more unpleasant.
He coughed awkwardly twice and said quietly.
"Haha... never mind, never mind..."
Actually, he was very annoyed at this moment. Wasn't this just shooting himself in the foot?
Should we tell them that he wagered two immortal swords?
Then, regardless of whether he wins or loses, he can't take these two swords with him.
He can't afford to lose this person!
So, he could only offer vague laughs, hoping that this reincarnation of the Fengdu Emperor had a bit more emotional intelligence and wouldn't bring up these embarrassing matters again...
"Heavenly Venerable One, which little mouse are you referring to?..."
Hearing this, Lin Qiye asked with some confusion.
"The little mouse is naturally the projection avatar of the extraterrestrial god hidden in Fengdu."
"And as you just saw, young friend Li Jie destroyed that clone with a single sword strike."
"So, he won the bet."
quiet.....
A deathly silence...
After the Celestial Venerable finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became strange.
really!
The black guy who just fought Uncle Li was a god!
That Brother Li... really killed a god!!
Although Lin Qiye had expected this, after all, back in Cangnan, Brother Li had once killed Loki's clone.
But now, according to the Celestial Venerable, this extraterrestrial deity was merely the subject of a bet between the two of them.
This left him unable to calm his thoughts for a long time...
"That's really...unique..."
He murmured to himself.
Just then, Xian'er and Xiao Jue walked out from behind Li Jie, hand in hand.
The former looked at the Celestial Venerable's calm and collected demeanor and couldn't help but purse his lips and speak.
"Old man, if you have something to say, then hurry up and leave!"
"This Feng needs time to recover its energy. If you keep nagging, believe me, I'll give you a sword strike too, so you can experience that feeling from the very beginning."
Old man?
How about a sword strike?
My sister-in-law, the female ghost... is she really that brave?
That's Yuanshi Tianzun!
Hearing Xian'er's words, the Heavenly Venerable was not annoyed. He stroked his beard and spoke.
"Of course I must leave, but I have one more thing to say to my young friend Li Jie."
Ok?
Upon hearing the Celestial Venerable call his name, Li Jie turned his head and looked into the Celestial Venerable's eyes.
"Although the Immortal Sword is powerful, it is not your own power. Sinking into this state will not do you any good."
"in addition......"
"I have one more question."
Seeing Li Jie nod, the Celestial Venerable continued speaking.
"If one day the Great Xia Dynasty is on the verge of collapse, would you, young friend Li Jie, be willing to step forward?"
At this point, his gaze turned to the five little ones standing to the side.
"This question is also directed at you."
After speaking, apart from Jialan, who didn't quite understand the Heavenly Venerable's meaning and had a puzzled expression on his face.
The other five teenagers seemed to have a concrete answer in their hearts.
This answer has never changed since the moment they joined the Night's Watch.
Li Jie smiled.
After understanding his meaning, Lin Qiye and the other three teenagers smiled knowingly in unison.
“Heavenly Venerable One, I think we all have the same answer.”
"Oh?" Upon hearing Li Jie's words, the Celestial Venerable glanced at them with interest.
Sensing the Celestial Venerable's gaze, Li Jie spoke first.
"If the darkest night ever comes..."
Immediately afterwards, Lin Qiye and the others all placed their right fists on their chests and said in unison.
"I will stand before ten million people..."
"Sword drawn, facing the abyss..."
"Blood stains the sky!..."
The youthful spirit bursts forth at this moment...
Seeing this, the Celestial Venerable laughed heartily and walked into the void...and was never heard from again.
The Emperor of Fengdu looked at the group of young men standing in front of him.
He nodded secretly.
These are the sons of the Great Xia Dynasty, these are...
inherited!
