Chapter 179 High-profile gambling dispute
Sun Linmao?
Lin Shen recalled, and he didn't seem to know such a person.
After thinking for a while, he opened the island's restriction and let the outsiders in.
Not long after, a young man came to Lin Shen.
"Is there a problem?"
Lin Shen looked the opponent up and down, and with a sweep of his spiritual sense, he immediately saw that the opponent was not a monk, but only at the ninth level of Mingqiao, and he hadn't started to gather spiritual veins yet.
Sun Linmao looked a little tense.
I didn’t feel comfortable talking about Lin Shen in private, but when I actually stood in front of Lin Shen and felt the powerful aura of Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi on him, I couldn’t restrain my nervousness immediately.
This is the subconscious reaction of the weak to the strong.
What's more, Sun Linmao's purpose for coming here is not pure, and he is even more guilty.
After a while, Sun Linmao swallowed, cupped his hands and said:
"Senior Brother Lin, I came here under the order of Senior Brother Shan. As early as two months ago, Senior Brother Shan had reserved Jinchuan Island. You intervened halfway to **** it, which is really against the rules. Please return Jinchuan Island!"
It turned out to be sent by Shan Wenqi.
Lin Shen smiled, and said with a faint smile: "There is no need to talk about the superfluous scenes. You and I know the real situation. If we really want to talk about it, it is Shan Wenqi who violated the sect's rules first."
"Jinchuan Island is now my cultivation cave. Once it is in my hands, it is my personal property. Shan Wenqi wants me to give up Jinchuan Island with just a few words. It is too wishful thinking. You just say that he is going to How to **** Jinchuan Island from me!"
There are many open and secret fights among the same sect, but no matter how fierce the fight is, at least there will be some face in the open. How can someone be as straightforward as Lin Shen? Sun Linmao suddenly felt extremely embarrassed.
Hesitated for a while, thinking that he had to fulfill Senior Brother Shan’s orders, he still took out the gauntlet and handed it to Lin Shen.
"Senior Brother Lin, this is written by Brother Shan himself. He has spoken beforehand. If Senior Brother Lin refuses to give up Jinchuan Island, let me hand over this letter to you."
"Oh?" Lin Shen took a look, and a sneer appeared on his face.
Not surprisingly, this letter is a letter of war.
The content is nothing more than asking Lin Shen to choose a place to fight, and the outcome of Jinchuan Island will be determined by the outcome. If Lin Shen doesn't agree, it's fine. He can hide on the island and be a turtle, so as not to be ridiculed by others in the future.
"After all, it's not going to be a battle in the end. If you say so earlier, it will be over, and you will make so many hypocritical people."
I don't know if it was infected by Xia Mengran, Lin Shen felt that his speech had also become rough.
Laughed in his heart, but he didn't show anything on his face. He put the gauntlet aside and sneered.
"However, Shan Wenqi has a good plan. Jinchuan Island is my personal property. He used my things as a bet. It is too good to think. If you want to gamble, then show your sincerity."
Sun Linmao hesitated and said, "I don't know what advice Senior Brother Lin has?"
He can't make decisions about this kind of thing, he can only listen to Lin Shen's request, and then go back and report to Shan Wenqi, who will make up his mind.
"Which spiritual peak and spiritual island is Shan Wenqi's cultivation cave?"
"It's Liefeng Island!" Sun Linmao replied without thinking.
"Then bet on Liefeng Island." Lin Shen smiled slightly, "Both sides are betting on the cultivation of the cave, it's fair."
Sun Linmao didn't realize it until now, and his complexion suddenly changed.
He opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by Lin Shen raising his hand.
"You can't decide this kind of thing. Go back and tell Shan Wenqi my request. If he is willing to accept, then ten days later Jinchuan Island will decide the outcome."
After finishing this sentence, Lin Shen didn't give Sun Linmao any more chance to talk nonsense, so he directly waved his hand to see off the guests.
"I've finished talking, I'm going to practice, please go back."
Sun Linmao waited to say more, but when he saw Lin Shen waved his hand, a powerful force rushed towards his face, and he was pushed backward involuntarily.
When he came back to his senses, Sun Linmao found that he had come outside the island, and the restriction on Jinchuan Island had also been opened.
In desperation, he had no choice but to leave dejectedly, ready to go back to Shan Wenqi on business.
When Sun Linmao returned, Shan Wenqi had already arrived on Feiyan Island.
Looking around, the courtyards and high-rise buildings on the island are one after another, row upon row.
The most striking thing is the magnificent palace standing in the center of the island.
The blue tiles reflect the sky, the gold is painted in silver, and the Ruodan Pavilion is seen from a distance with greenery and rainbow embroidered Xia weaving, which is extremely luxurious.
At this moment, the palace was full of people, and countless maids and warriors were walking around, constantly serving all kinds of delicious food and wine.
"Meng Fei still enjoys it so much!"
Shan Wenqi laughed and landed in front of the palace, striding into it.
There were more than ten people waiting in the main hall, all of them were between 25 and 30 years old, dressed in decent and luxurious clothes, obviously they were all descendants of aristocratic families.
The three people headed by them are even more energetic, and they are obviously monks like Shan Wenqi.
Hearing the voice, Li Mengfei turned his head and smiled, and greeted him warmly.
"Wen Qi is counting, we have been waiting for you for more than half an hour, and you will have to punish yourself for three cups later!"
The monks Tang Ming and Duan Ziping on the side also booed one after another, wanting Shan Wenqi to drink as a fine.
The rest of the aristocratic children of Mingqiao Realm stood aside with a smile on their faces, not daring to interrupt at will.
The descendants of the aristocratic families present were closely related to the families behind them, so the clan members also had a lot of communication on weekdays, and they gathered together from time to time to deepen their relationship with each other.
Because their respective cultivation caves are not far apart, they come and go frequently, and communicate with each other. Over time, a considerable force has formed in the sect, which is called Hundred Islands.
Among the hundred islands, the Shan family is the head, followed by the Li, Tang, and Duan families.
Therefore, Shan Wenqi has the highest status among all the people.
As soon as he came, he immediately became a presence like the stars and the moon in the hall.
After some pleasantries, the banquet began soon.
After drinking for three rounds, Shan Wenqicai talked about Lin Shen, and said that he sent Sun Linmao to the afternoon.
After listening, Li Mengfei pondered slightly, nodded and said:
"Jinchuan Island must be taken back. Leaving aside the preciousness of this cave, Lin Shen's identity alone will never allow him to get his wish!"
Tang Ming and Duan Ziping both showed deep approval.
Lin Shen was originally famous, but now he has become the direct disciple of Yuanzhu Yu. He can almost be said to be the benchmark of the younger generation of master and apprentice, and his every move will attract the attention of countless people.
If Shan Wenqi was intercepted by Lin Shen to take Jinchuan Island, but he didn't do anything, wouldn't it be thought that the Shan family was afraid of Lin Shen?
Even the prestige of Hundred Islands will be damaged!
"Do you think Lin Shen will agree to give up Jinchuan Island?" Tang Ming touched his chin and said.
"If that's the case, then we'll save a lot of trouble." Li Mengfei laughed, then shook his head again, "But it's unlikely, if Lin Shen really admits cowardice so easily, he won't be accepted by Courtyard Master Yu." I am an apprentice."
"Exactly!"
Duan Ziping agreed with Li Mengfei's words.
"I investigated Lin Shen, and he had conflicts with many aristocratic families when he was in Jiuyang Daoyuan, first Yan family, Peng family, and now a Kuang family!"
"Back when he had no background, he dared to fight against the power of the aristocratic family. Now that he has Yuanzhu Yu as his backer, it will only get worse!"
"In my opinion, he probably won't hand over Jinchuan Island so easily!"
Shan Wenqi picked up his wine glass and took a sip, then said calmly, "Then just fight!"
Li Mengfei glanced at him, and said with a smile: "Wen Qi looks very confident, don't underestimate Lin Shen, after all, he is a first-grade spirit vein!"
"So what?" Shan Wenqi snorted coldly, "No matter how outstanding the talent is, it will take time to transform into strength. Unless Lin Shen is given one or two more years of practice, he will not be my opponent at all!"
Everyone present felt that Shan Wenqi's arrogant words were quite normal.
Shan Wenqi himself has a fourth-level Yunling cultivation base, and his skills are not bad, even against ordinary Yunling fifth-level monks, he has the power to fight.
Against Lin Shen who has just been promoted not long ago, it is hard to lose!
Relaxed, everyone was drinking and having fun again.
After a while, Shan Wenqi's expression changed, and he looked out the door with a smile.
"Junior Brother Sun is back."
Everyone turned their heads to look outside, and it didn't take long to see Sun Linmao walking in quickly.
Seeing that Sun Linmao's face didn't seem very good-looking, Shan Wenqi frowned slightly and asked:
"Junior Brother Sun, what's going on?"
Sun Linmao bit the bullet and told the story.
After hearing this, everyone's eyelids twitched and they looked at each other in blank dismay.
Shan Wenqi's face became gloomy instantly.
He thought that Lin Shen might refuse to agree to the bet. As long as Lin Shen stays on Jinchuan Island and activates the ban, he can't do anything about Lin Shen, so he used an aggressive tone in the letter of war.
Unexpectedly, Lin Shen agreed, but asked him to gamble with his own cultivation cave.
"Lin Shen is too rampant. Not to mention taking away Jinchuan Island, he actually misses Gaefeng Island. He really treats Wen Qi like a soft persimmon, and he is too bullying!" Tang Ming snorted coldly.
The rest of the people also showed expressions of resentment.
On the contrary, Li Mengfei smiled slightly and said:
"Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient."
"Since Lin Shen wants Liefeng Island to bet, why not agree to him? Anyway, he is not Wen Qi's opponent after all. The so-called bet is just a name!"
Everyone was right after thinking about it, and said yes one after another.
Shan Wenqi's gloomy expression also eased a lot.
Although Liefeng Island is his cave, the family spent a lot of effort to help him win it. Strictly speaking, it is not something he can dispose of at will.
If he loses in the gambling competition, he is bound to be severely punished by the family.
So when Lin Shen asked him to take out Gale Island as a bet, his first reaction was to be surprised and angry.
But after hearing what Li Mengfei said, he immediately felt relieved.
Indeed, Lin Shen was unlikely to be his opponent anyway. In this case, it doesn't matter what the bet is.
Thinking of this, Shan Wenqi felt certain, his expression gradually returned to normal, and he sneered.
"Okay, I promise him!"
He turned to Sun Linmao and said, "Go and tell Lin Shen that I will fight him on Jinchuan Island in ten days' time!"
Wait for Sun Linmao to lead away, Shan Wenqi sneered again.
"If Lin Shen doesn't agree to the bet, I really can't do anything about him. I never thought about him but was dazzled by greed and missed my Liefeng Island. That's fine. I'll let him pay for his wife in ten days. Break the soldiers!"
Li Mengfei and the others looked at each other, laughed and raised their glasses.
"Then let's congratulate Wen Qiqi on his return!"
"cheers!"
The news of the gambling battle between Shan Wenqi and Lin Shen quickly spread throughout the Nine Suns Sect!
Among them, Lin Shen is a famous figure in the sect, and countless people pay attention to his every move.
On the other hand, it is also because the people in Hundred Islands deliberately spread the word, wanting to let Lin Shen lose to Shan Wenqi in full view, so as to take this opportunity to damage Lin Shen's reputation.
In just four or five days, this gambling battle has attracted countless attention.
This development is not surprising.
After all, both sides in the fight have a lot of background.
One party is a practicing genius who has been in the limelight recently.
The other party is also an elite true disciple with good strength among the younger generation.
More importantly, behind the two stood the line of master and apprentice and the power of the family.
In the eyes of discerning people, this is actually a collision between two major forces!
Even in the Nine Suns Sect, which encourages disciples to fight and compete, such gambling fights are rare, and naturally attract much attention.
Before the gambling competition started, many disciples were already looking forward to it, and decided to come and watch it on the same day.
Outside Jinchuan Island, a beam of light flew over and stayed over the island.
Lin Shen, who was practicing, immediately sensed this familiar aura, and immediately activated the restriction.
Liuguang descended from the sky and landed in front of Lin Shen, revealing Xia Mengran's figure.
"I heard that you want to gamble with Shan Wenqi?"
Xia Mengran went straight to the point as soon as they met.
"That's right." Lin Shen calmly nodded.
Hearing this, Xia Mengran frowned slightly, but did not ask why Lin Shen agreed, but asked straight to the point:
"Are you sure?"
"have."
It is a simple word, but it gives people a sense of calmness and strength, allowing people to clearly appreciate the confidence contained in it.
Xia Mengran gave Lin Shen a surprised look.
She had heard about Shan Wenqi's strength. Originally, she thought it was unlikely that Lin Shen would win against Shan Wenqi. In her heart, she thought that Lin Shen's action in agreeing to the bet was too reckless.
But now, it seems that I have underestimated this little junior brother?
After a few times of contact, Xia Mengran had already seen that Lin Shen was not the one who uttered wild words.
Since he said that, he must have a lot of confidence!
Seeing this, Xia Mengran nodded and said no more, turned around and left without hesitation, just as busy as when she came.
Watching Xia Mengran leave, Lin Shen couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, this senior sister was still as vigorous and resolute as ever.
Restraining distracting thoughts, Lin Shen continued to practice.
Although he said he was confident, he did not despise Shan Wenqi.
The reason why the ten-day agreement was made was to allow more time to improve strength.
With the blessing of the talent of the sky and the dual talents of the natural spirit body, ten days is enough for him to break through to the second level of Yunling!
Besides, after practicing with all his strength, he might be able to condense a second drop of Yin Yin Heavy Water.
At that time, he can easily defeat Shan Wenqi with just two drops of Yin and heavy water.
not long.
The island returned to tranquility.
In a place invisible to the naked eye, a large amount of spiritual energy poured into Lin Shen's body like a sea of rivers, constantly turning into a part of the dark and heavy water.
