Chapter 852: Long Cangsheng

Qin Yun had also found the situation extremely perilous just now, for if he lost, that precious dragon soul would be gone.

"Don't go, I still want to gamble! This time, I will win back the dragon soul, the imperial origin stone, and the royal qi elixir!" Xian Rujing, whose injured hand had already healed, hurriedly stepped in front of Qin Yun to block his path, shouting.

Qin Yun glanced at Long Chuanwu, then looked at Xian Rujing and smiled, "To win all those things at once? You need to put up something of equal value. What else do you have to bet?"

Long Chuanwu had nothing left; otherwise, he wouldn't look so dejected, his face as if he had been castrated.

Everyone was also curious about what Xian Rujing could offer to bet.

Winning the dragon soul, the imperial origin stone, and the royal qi elixir all at once would require something even more valuable.

"I'll bet this immortal sword!" Xian Rujing took out her immortal sword.

"I don't need an immortal sword, so let's not bother!" Qin Yun said.

Seeing Xian Rujing bet her immortal sword, everyone gasped in surprise.

Long Chuanwu had previously possessed an immortal artifact, but after using it, he returned it to his elders, so he had none to offer, or he would have already put it on the line.

"My immortal sword is worth as much as the dragon soul!" Xian Rujing declared, "Why don't you want it? As a minor Martial King, owning an immortal artifact is something many envy!"

"I don't need it; I believe my items are more valuable than your immortal sword!" Even without the Nether Soul Holy Blade and the Nine Yang Divine Hammer, Qin Yun would never covet that immortal sword.

Xian Rujing was very anxious and gritted her teeth, "Then... I will bet my body with you. If you win, I am yours!"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned!

Many here are young masters who have frequented gambling dens and seen countless people pawn themselves into slavery for the sake of gambling; it's a common occurrence.

But Xian Rujing is a woman, a very young and stunning Martial Empress from the Immortal Wasteland, a daughter of heaven, and she actually pawned herself!

What’s more, Xian Rujing did this right in front of her fiancé, Long Chuanwu!

"Rujing, let's just give up and go back to our elders!" Long Chuanwu called out.

"I won’t go. I’m sure I can win him next time!" Xian Rujing said with great confidence.

Long Chuanwu became even more anxious because obtaining Xian Rujing’s body was something he had longed for.

He had sacrificed so much before, all to win Xian Rujing’s favor and gain her body.

Because once he obtained Xian Rujing’s body, his soul could transform into an Immortal Pulse, which made it worth it for Long Chuanwu to bet such a precious item as the Dragon Soul.

Qin Yun smiled and said, "I have no interest in your body! Besides, your body isn’t as valuable as the Dragon Soul or the Imperial Origin Stone!"

This made Xian Rujing so angry that she stomped her feet, shouting, "My body is priceless... Do you know that in the Immortal Wasteland, there are many people who want my body? They would even trade ten Dragon Souls and a hundred Imperial Origin Stones for it, you blind fool!"

Qin Yun, of course, knew about the special nature of Xian Rujing’s body, but he was not the least bit interested.

"Then tell us, what makes your body so valuable?" Long Yucang asked with a smile.

"Whoever possesses my body can cultivate an Immortal Pulse through me!"

"You must understand that in the Immortal Wasteland, many powerful immortals still only have Spirit Pulses! They absorb Nine Yang Immortal Qi through their Spirit Pulses, but it’s a very slow process. If... if someone can obtain my body, they can cultivate an Immortal Pulse, at the very least a Seven Yang Immortal Pulse!"

Xian Rujing spoke loudly, her voice carrying the weight of these somewhat embarrassing words.

Qin Yun possessed the Nine Yang Divine Spirit, equivalent to having the Nine Yang Spirit Veins. In the future, even if he went to the Immortal Wasteland, he could quickly absorb the Nine Yang Immortal Qi. Therefore, he was not particularly eager for the Nine Yang Immortal Veins.

Everyone looked at Long Chuanwu with strange expressions! Because Long Chuanwu had not taken Xian Rujing, which was truly amusing and made it clear why Long Chuanwu was willing to go to great lengths to please Xian Rujing.

At this moment, everyone could see that Long Chuanwu was not genuinely in love with Xian Rujing; he only coveted her special constitution.

"Immortal veins are only useful for immortals. I don't know when I will become an immortal, so I'll pass! I'm not interested!" Qin Yun smiled.

"You're not interested in the immortal veins, but aren't you interested in a beauty like Xian Rujing? Are you even a man!" A young man laughed loudly.

"Exactly! If you win, you can have both the beauty and the immortal veins. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

"Hurry up and agree to the bet! If you win, you'll make a huge profit!"

Many men tried to incite him, but seeing Long Chuanwu's sullen face, they all quickly shut up.

Qin Yun said, "If you lose, Long Chuanwu won't let you leave with me. So forget it! He has a group of elders from the Heavenly Dragon Gate behind him, and I can't compete with you! Besides, I really have no interest in you at all!"

Xian Rujing stomped her foot and said, "Idiot, you may not be interested in me, but many people are. If you win, you can use me to exchange for many good things, can't you?"

Qin Yun shook his head and smiled, "I don't trust you, and I don't have the ability to take you away! You offer no guarantee, just saying you'll come with me and sleep with me if you lose. What if you run away after losing and take my things if you win? That would be like getting something for nothing."

Qin Yun was far from stupid; he knew very well that Xian Rujing was now extremely cunning.

Actually, Xian Rujing wasn't always foolish. She had just become much less intelligent after falling in love, but now that she had regained her senses, she was quite shrewd.

Long Chuanwu seemed to have also seen through Xian Rujing's thoughts, which was why he did not stop her.

Hearing Qin Yun's words, everyone also felt that Xian Rujing was playing tricks.

"Hmph, if you don’t want to bet, then fine! Just wait and see how I’ll deal with you in the martial arts competition!" Xian Rujing said with a huff.

From the very beginning, Qin Yun had seen through Xian Rujing’s scheme. She had been with her fiancé, Long Chuanwu, for so long without even allowing him a kiss, which showed how chaste she was. There was no way she would casually pledge her chastity.

Long Yucang suddenly laughed, "I finally understand why Brother Chuanwu frequents brothels. It must be frustrating to have such a beauty by your side but not be able to touch her, hahaha..."

"Long Yucang, if you keep spouting nonsense, I’ll make you eat shit!" Long Chuanwu’s eyes seemed to be about to shoot out angry lightning as he roared.

Suddenly, several powerful auras approached!

They were the auras of Half-Immortals and Martial Emperors!

The group of young people quickly moved to the center, watching as their elders descended.

"Is there a private fight going on here?" an elder asked.

"We’re not fighting privately; we’re just having a wrist-wrestling match and betting on some small trinkets!" Long Yucang laughed.

What small trinkets? They were precious items like the Dragon Soul, the King’s Aura Pill, and the Imperial Origin Stone. Xian Rujing had even pledged herself.

At this moment, someone explained the situation to the elders.

An elder from the Heavenly Dragon Gate, upon learning that the Dragon Soul had been lost, immediately flew into a rage. In a flash, he appeared before Long Chuanwu and slapped him, furious, "Chuanwu, that Dragon Soul was lent to you so you could comprehend the Heavenly Dragon Technique from it, and it was supposed to be returned to the Heavenly Dragon Gate... It is the soul of a Celestial Dragon, incredibly precious, and you gambled it away! You good-for-nothing wastrel!"

It was actually the soul of a Celestial Dragon!

A wave of shock swept through the crowd!

Qin Yun hadn’t realized it at first, but now he understood why Xian Rujing had been so eager to obtain it.

"Elder, it's all my fault! If not for me... Chuanwu wouldn't have lost!" Xian Rujing looked deeply remorseful, her eyes moist with tears as she sobbed, "To win back that Dragon Soul, I even agreed to bet my chastity, but that guy refused to gamble with me!"

Qin Yun cursed Xian Rujing in his heart; she was becoming more and more cunning.

Just now, everyone could see that Xian Rujing wanted to keep the Dragon Soul for herself.

Qin Yun even suspected that Xian Rujing had deliberately let Long Chuanwu hand over the Dragon Soul.

Because when Long Chuanwu lost earlier, he didn't want to give it up. But Xian Rujing said she could win it back, so Long Chuanwu handed over the Dragon Soul.

Xian Rujing incited Long Chuanwu to hand over the Dragon Soul, planning to win it back for herself!

"What a treacherous woman, she's going to ruin Long Chuanwu!" Ling Yun'er whispered with a smirk.

The elders of the Heavenly Dragon Gate, seeing the usually cold and proud Xian Rujing crying with tearful eyes, couldn't say much.

They had also learned from others just now that Xian Rujing had offered herself as a bet, revealing the secret of her body, saying that whoever won her could cultivate the Immortal Meridian...

It was indeed a great sacrifice!

Slap!

One of the elders slapped Long Chuanwu again!

Long Chuanwu being publicly scolded and slapped by the elder indicated that the matter was very serious.

An elder from the Long family walked over to Qin Yun and said, "Are you Long Yutian? Quickly return the Dragon Soul, the Imperial Origin Stone, and the Royal Qi Pill! Don't hurt the harmony! It was just a bit of fun!"

"Yes, hurry up and take them out!" Another elder from the Long family shouted, "It was wrong of you to begin with, luring others into gambling. Quickly return everything!"

Qin Yun said, "I won it with my own skills, why should I give it back? If they can't afford to lose, they shouldn't play. I was ready to stop several times, but they insisted on continuing. What does that have to do with me?"

"You bastard, how dare you speak to your elders like that? Not growing up in Dragon King Village has made you so disrespectful? Watch me teach you a lesson!" An elder from the Long family slapped at Qin Yun's face.

Qin Yun quickly dodged!

"Defiant brat, you actually dared to dodge! I'll tear your face apart!" As the elder from the Long family charged forward, Long Yucang stepped in front to block him.

The people of Heavenly Dragon Gate felt much more relieved, knowing that the group of elders from the Long family would definitely help them reclaim the Dragon Soul.

"Long Yucang, Long Yutian, both your fathers are dead, so let me discipline you!" The elder sneered coldly. He was a half-immortal, and dealing with two Martial Kings was effortless for him.

The half-immortal from the Long family used his power to immobilize Long Yucang and struck with a slap...

Suddenly, a flash of cold light appeared, and the elder's hand fell to the ground, severed at the shoulder, blood gushing out!

Qin Yun was utterly shocked. He had been preparing to flee with Long Yucang, but someone unexpectedly intervened!

"I, Long Cangsheng, am not dead yet, and it’s not time for others to discipline my grandson!" As he spoke, a handsome middle-aged man in gray clothing appeared before Long Yucang.

This was none other than Long Yucang's grandfather, who had been in seclusion for many years, yet still looked like a middle-aged man!
