    Chapter 0441: The Dragon Blood Family

    The people of the Strange Pattern Hall were puzzled at this moment because they were very certain that no one could know the result in advance.

    Yet this fool was betting so heavily!

    Even more astonishing, Zi Qingcheng and Shui Tianzi also bet a billion!

    Qin Yun felt the pressure seeing them follow his lead. If he failed, they would lose this round.

    Zi Qingcheng and Shui Tianzi had already made nearly two billion yesterday, so even if they lost now, it wouldn’t matter much. So, they boldly followed his lead.

    The bloodline warriors were quite annoyed!

    Because these descendants of bloodline families were being outdone by a few women and a fool!

    This completely outshone them.

    Of course, they wanted to keep gambling, but they were short on Purple Crystal Coins, which were needed for lodging.

    They initially thought they could win several rounds straight, but ended up losing later.

    That’s gambling for you—always thinking you can turn things around, so you keep playing.

    After Qin Yun and the others placed their bets, they waited patiently. The results would only be revealed in an hour.

    Many others were also waiting. Though Qin Yun bet big, few followed his lead.

    As the hour neared its end, a beautiful woman in a white dress suddenly appeared. Her charming, lovely face bore a hint of coldness.

    Seeing her, Qin Yun and Hong Mengshu were both surprised. It was Xiao Yuemei! But she wasn’t in her usual twin-tail hairstyle; instead, she was in a more elegant and aloof attire.

    "I’m also betting on numbers 80 and 88, fifty million Purple Crystal Coins each!" Xiao Yuemei's tone was icy and aloof.

    As soon as she arrived, she caught wind of many things. She took out her mirror and saw someone with three martial souls, confirming Qin Yun’s presence.

    So, she was sure that Zi Qingcheng’s cousin was Qin Yun!

    Since it was Qin Yun, she boldly followed suit.

    A woman of unknown origin, betting a billion Purple Crystal Coins, further riled up those bloodline warriors!

    They hadn’t expected the women in Wuhuang to be so wealthy.

    "I’m Xiong Zixuan, from the Explosive Bear Bloodline Family! May I ask your name? With such generosity, you must be from a great family!" The bloodline warrior in a blue luxurious robe approached, smiling as he inquired about Xiao Yuemei.

    "I am Long Yuemei, from the northern region of Wuhuang, the Ancient Dragon Bloodline Family!" Xiao Yuemei's voice was cold, her face filled with pride.

    This left many bloodline warriors in awe. If King Wu Huo hadn’t seen Xiao Yuemei before, he would have been fooled too.

    Qin Yun knew that Xiao Yuemei was bluffing again!

    "Is... is this true? I've never heard of a Dragon Bloodline Family!" Xiong Zixuan was startled by Xiao Yuemei's words.

    "Believe it or not!" Xiao Yuemei coldly snorted, her eyes filled with disdain as she looked at Xiong Zixuan.

    Xiong Zixuan was a Spirit Martial realm bloodline warrior and relatively young, yet he was being looked down upon like never before.

    Shui Tianzi whispered, "The dragon's bloodline inheritance has never existed..."

    Those Bloodline warriors were also discussing the matter.

    At that moment, a powerful aura swept over.

    It was a Martial King, and a Bloodline Martial King, no less!

    Everyone saw a burly middle-aged man with a broad waist and strong back, clad in majestic armor, gliding over and landing beside Xiong Zixuan.

    "Father!" Xiong Zixuan quickly called out, "Have you ever heard of the Dragon Bloodline family?"

    This Bloodline Soul was actually Xiong Zixuan's father, indicating Xiong Zixuan's high status in the Explosive Bear Bloodline family.

    "Dragon Bloodline?" The middle-aged man frowned.

    Xiong Zixuan looked at Xiao Yuemei and whispered, "This woman, she claims to be from the Dragon Bloodline family!"

    Xiao Yuemei sneered, "A bunch of narrow-minded frogs! Don't you know there are several Dragon Bloodline families in the Spirit Wasteland? The Three Wastelands lack powerful ancient beast bloodlines because their spiritual energy is too weak, making such beasts extremely rare!"

    "In the Spirit Wasteland, dragons are quite common! The dragon from the Cloud Dragon Mountain Range came from the Spirit Wasteland, and our Dragon family was tasked with subduing it!"

    Qin Yun felt as though he didn't recognize Xiao Yuemei anymore. He almost believed her, but then he remembered how good she was at lying and immediately thought she was making it up.

    "Are your elders in North Spirit City?" The middle-aged man from the Xiong family, looking shocked, quickly asked.

    "My elders have already headed to the Cloud Dragon Mountain Range!" Xiao Yuemei said, "I also heard from them that the reason the dragon from the Spirit Wasteland was attracted to the Immortal Tomb Wasteland was because of a certain immortal treasure!"

    She paused, then added, "The Cloud Dragon Mountain Range is guarded by many Netherworld Celestial Lions to prevent the dragon from tomb raiding."

    Qin Yun was inwardly shocked, as he had just mastered the Sky Lion Summoning Technique, enabling him to summon Netherworld Celestial Lions!

    He had been curious about what Netherworld Celestial Lions were like, and now, hearing Xiao Yuemei's description, he knew they were those black lions.

    The black lion that emerged from the tomb Jian Xuanzi and the others had opened earlier was a Netherworld Celestial Lion.

    "It seems we must enter the Cloud Dragon Mountain Range as soon as possible!" The Xiong family's Martial King looked anxious, pulling out a communication jade talisman to message other Martial Kings.

    Xiong Zixuan whispered, "Father, so there really is a Dragon Bloodline family? Why have I never heard of it?"

    The Martial King from the Xiong family said, "They do exist in the Spirit Wasteland! I just didn't expect a Dragon Bloodline family in Wuhuang... I wonder when they settled here."

    Xiao Yuemei coldly smiled, "The Strange Patterns Hall is a major power in the Spirit Wasteland. Because they seized the opportunity early and developed in Wuhuang, they have a huge influence here!"

    "Our Dragon family is solely interested in the Cloud Dragon Mountain Range, which is why we sent people to Wuhuang ten thousand years ago!"

    Qin Yun was eager to approach Xiao Yuemei and ask how she knew so much.

    Martial Kings aren't easily deceived. The Xiong family's Martial King had carefully probed Xiao Yuemei's aura earlier, sensing the Dragon Soul, which convinced him.

    Xiao Yuemei's Mirror Soul could replicate numerous Souls, including her sister Xiao Yuelan's Purple Gold Dragon Soul. Now, using this Dragon Soul, she could easily deceive many.

    "Miss, what level is your Dragon Soul? It appears incredibly powerful!" The Martial King from the Xiong family curiously asked.

    His question stunned the thousands present!

    The Bloodline family disciples all turned their gaze to Xiao Yuemei! The Dragon Soul was a Heaven-bestowed Beast Soul, among the most powerful Souls!

    "No comment," Xiao Yuemei replied coldly.

    A pure Dragon Soul is exceedingly rare. Some possess dual-attribute Dragon Souls, like Lu Wudi's Earth Dragon Soul, resembling a pangolin-like dragon.

    The mustached middle-aged man said, "Get ready to unveil the results! Miss Xiao, you just bet a hundred million. If you lose, don’t hold a grudge against our Qiweng Palace!"

    "A hundred million purple crystal coins? That’s nothing to me. If I lose, I lose. I’ve got the cash to spare!" Xiao Yuemei coldly glanced at the middle-aged man and said, "I’m more concerned your Qiweng Palace might go bankrupt!"

    "How could that be! Since you’re from the Dragon Bloodline Family, you must know the foundation of our Qiweng Palace!" The middle-aged man chuckled, then activated the grand array.

    Qin Yun’s attention snapped to the array.

    At this moment, many people, like him, were somewhat nervous, their eyes glued to the massive vats.

    Qin Yun, as before, used the *Piercing Mystic Art* to let his mental energy penetrate the vat, controlling the bird to move along the transmission trajectory and stop in the eighty-eighth vat.

    The array ground to a stop. Qin Yun let out a long sigh of relief, bubbling with excitement—he’d nailed it!

    The mustached middle-aged man stroked his beard and shouted, "Reveal the results!"

    The lids of the vats were opened, and the bird flew out of the eighty-eighth vat!

    The crowd erupted in chaos.

    "Hahaha! We did it again!" Hong Mengshu couldn’t contain her joy, bursting into loud laughter.

    "That idiot actually got it right!"

    "How did he know the result?"

    "Does he have some kind of future-telling power?"

    "Probably just luck. He’s been on a losing streak!"

    The disciples of the bloodline families were seething with jealousy, because Zi Qingcheng and Shui Tianzi had just earned four hundred million purple crystal coins this round!

    Even Hong Yingwu King and the Xiong family’s Martial King were stunned. They were well-traveled and knowledgeable, yet they couldn’t fathom how Zi Qingcheng’s cousin pulled it off!

    The mustached man from Qiweng Palace looked like he’d swallowed a lemon.

    Before, one could say that they could see through the vats and know which vat the bird was in before placing a bet.

    But now, the bet was placed first, and then the transmission array of the vats was activated. It was absolutely impossible to know beforehand!

    "Finally got it right!" Qin Yun also smiled. "That’s gambling for you. Lose a few, win a few—it’s all about the luck."

    The crowd also remembered that when Hong Mengshu was placing her bet, Qin Yun had tried to dissuade her, showing that he wasn’t very confident, so they were sure it was just a lucky guess.

    Qiweng Palace could handle the loss. Though they gritted their teeth, they coughed up two and a half billion purple crystal coins to Qin Yun and the four women, including Zi Qingcheng.

    "One more round to go today!" Shui Tianzi couldn’t stop smiling, her eyes squinting.

    She and Zi Qingcheng were on cloud nine. In just a few days, they had made hundreds of millions of purple crystal coins. Another win, and they’d hit the billion mark!

    "Qiweng Palace, are you afraid to continue?" Xiao Yuemei kept a straight face, but inside she was doing cartwheels. She knew that following Qin Yun’s bets would never be wrong.

    She was also very curious about how Qin Yun had guessed it right!

    The mustached middle-aged man wiped his sweat and said, "How could that be! The sixth round is now open for bets!"

    Qiweng Palace could take the financial hit, but losing face? That was out of the question.

    At the summons of the Martial King of the Xiong family, numerous Martial Kings began to arrive, and even Mu Fengxiao came.

    As soon as Mu Fengxiao arrived, he caught wind of a woman from the Dragon Blood lineage being here.

    When he saw it was Xiao Yuemei, he understood the situation, but he did not expose her.

    Although Xiao Yuemei had not disguised herself, her current frosty demeanor and changed hairstyle made her not so easily recognizable.

    Mu Fengxiao secretly suspected that Zi Qingcheng’s cousin was most likely Qin Yun.
