Chapter 1125: Qiu Yuxuan’s Rank
Regarding everyone’s complaints, Brother Cheng did not argue back.
Because even he, the instigator, felt that such conditions were too excessive.
"It’s okay if you don’t want to agree."
He spread his hands regretfully.
"It’s not that I don’t dare to bet, but that you dare not accept."
"Don’t blame me for that!"
"This childish bet, I think should end here."
After saying this, he waved his hand, leaving Qiu Yuxuan with a carefree silhouette.
Initially hearing the ’insidious’ conditions he set out, Qiu Yuxuan felt suspicious.
Could it be that he really has confidence in winning, just pretending to be weak to eventually trap her?
But now seeing him give up the bet so straightforwardly, as if throwing off a burden, she immediately realized.
Based on her understanding of Jiang Cheng, if this guy had even a slight chance of winning, he would definitely pursue it relentlessly.
He wouldn’t mercifully give up so easily.
He would say things like ’even such simple terms you dare not accept’ to provoke her, rather than ’forget it if you don’t want to bet’.
So...
This guy really has no confidence; he doesn’t want to bet, nor dares to bet!
Setting such excessive terms was just to scare her away, making her dare not accept.
She is going to win undoubtedly; even his conditions raised to heaven are mere empty talk.
They won’t truly come to fruition, so what is there to fear?
Thinking of this, she felt at ease.
"If I say your terms are too excessive and need modification, you definitely wouldn’t agree."
Once again, she looked into Jiang Cheng’s eyes, her gaze firm, as if she could see through his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys.
Brother Cheng nodded.
"Of course, if you don’t dare to accept, then so be it, there’s no room for negotiation."
Qiu Yuxuan’s charming lips slightly curled up, "Who says I don’t dare to accept?"
Jiang Cheng furrowed his brow, Qiu Yuxuan’s words seemed unexpected to him.
He even asked incredulously.
"You would accept even such conditions?"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yuxuan was entirely convinced he didn’t dare to bet, just trying to scare her.
"Why wouldn’t I dare to accept?"
She put away her smile, her demeanor becoming serious.
"I accept your earlier terms, the bet is established from now!"
Wow!
The crowd erupted in astonishment.
Including Three-Eyed Tiger and Yan Yi, all were shocked by the bet.
It seemed like just a small bet between two people.
But if either side lost, it would almost be irrecoverable.
Too ruthless.
Jiang Cheng seemed somewhat anxious, losing his usual composure.
"Are you crazy?"
He waved his arm, loudly roaring at Qiu Yuxuan.
"If you lose, it’s over. Aren’t you the one who dismisses such bets as childish?"
"Have you considered what to do if you lose?"
"I’m making an exception to give you a chance to regret, if you wish, this bet can be considered non-existent..."
"No need."
Qiu Yuxuan coldly interrupted him.
"It’s too late now for anything you say."
"No matter how you struggle, it won’t change the outcome of your defeat."
Her deep eyes shot out a cold mockery.
"Everything you imposed on me before, I will return double."
"Get ready!"
She even deliberately patted Brother Cheng’s shoulder with a sympathetic expression, clicking her tongue with a shake of her head.
"No need to despair too much, rest assured, I’ll keep you around to bully slowly, there’s a long road ahead..."
Three-Eyed Tiger couldn’t help but give Brother Cheng a sympathetic look.
"Bro, this time you’ve pushed too hard and finally are about to flip over!"
"This chick wasn’t scared by you, now what?"
"I thought you had really become a master in chasing chicks, was about to learn from you, but your demonstration is just pathetic..."
Brother Cheng rolled his eyes speechlessly.
"The outcome of this bet isn’t decided yet; you’ve known me for so long, haven’t you realized I’m forever undefeated?"
Three-Eyed Tiger sighed: "You’ve won so much you’re refusing to face reality..."
"Time to reveal your Identity Jade Talisman, please!"
The bet has been made, Qiu Yuxuan’s heart settled.
She now only wants to reveal the result soon, and put Jiang Cheng on the ’gallows’.
Sect Leader Jiang seemed truly hesitant.
He actually stepped back.
"Maybe, you go first."
"Tut tut tut..."
Qiu Yuxuan showed sympathy again.
"Weren’t you very arrogant before? Now you’re actually backing down?"
Brother Cheng said flatly: "I’m just allowing ladies first, displaying manners."
"Heh..."
Qiu Yuxuan sneered at this.
If this guy understood ’ladies first’, he wouldn’t have turned her into a maid back then.
"Then let me show you what despair means."
With that, she didn’t hesitate, stepped forward, and handed over her Identity Jade Talisman.
This bet unfolded right under everyone’s eyes.
The Immortal Official from the Reception Department felt inexplicably excited upon receiving that Identity Jade Talisman.
Because the upcoming results determined the fate of two people.
And what the outcome would be, they still didn’t know.
Everyone unknowingly held their breath, focused intensely on the Jade Talisman floating in mid-air, slowly sinking into the formation.
The only one not focused was Sect Leader Jiang.
He actually pulled out a cigarette, lit it up, and took a deep breath.
With gentle, content eyes, he watched Sister Qiu’s performance.
In everyone’s view, this was denial, an attempt to avoid reality.
Soon after, a lively cheer erupted throughout the venue.
"Fifth-Grade Immortal Official!"
"Wow!"
"Starting with a Fifth Grade!"
"Incredible, Fairy Yu Xuan is currently still Emperor Realm Eighth Layer, yet already a Fifth-Grade Immortal Official?"
"Many Supremes are still only Sixth or Seventh Grades, too strong!"
"And her Immortal Official Rank isn’t determined by the Division of Personnel, but a higher authority!"
"No wonder she’s a genius who unlocked the Heaven-Ascending Secret Realm!"
"This truly is the favor of the Celestial Palace, a true daughter of heaven..."
Seeing herself as a Fifth-Grade Immortal Official, Qiu Yuxuan finally felt completely at ease.
Great!
Even higher than her expectation by one grade.
The bet is certainly won!
"Hahahaha..."
Yaolang Daoist Venerable laughed heartily, thick with schadenfreude in the laughter.
"Wonderful!"
She slowly turned her head, her fierce eyes shooting like lightning towards Sect Leader Jiang.
"This bet, witnessed personally by myself, some shouldn’t try to evade or regret!"
"Otherwise, even if it goes to the Celestial Emperor, I will seek justice!"
Previously she lost, all her treasures and resources gone, never had she been so clean in her life.
Now she can’t wait to see Jiang Cheng suffer some misfortune.
"Qiu Yuxuan is quite right, the days ahead are still long."
"You cannot die, but we won’t kill you; instead, we’ll make you wish for it!"
At this moment, she even started considering how to use Qiu Yuxuan’s name to deal with Jiang Cheng.
