Chapter 158

Wandong waved his hand and cut off Wu Qiujun in midsentence, "Enough is enough! Stop flattering yourself! You guys are already notorious in the Qingyun Empire! We may as well take a bet on the raw stones. Let's see whether there is one valid stone out of ten."

"Are you kidding? You want me to chop open all the raw stones here just for that bet?"

Wandong smiled, "I'll save you the trouble. Let's take ten random stones out as samples and see whether there is a valid one or not. If so, you win. If not, you lose."

Wu Qiujun deemed it a viable approach. In so doing, the odds would be for him according to his abundant experience in this regard.

Nevertheless, Duan Lengyan was against it, "I beg to differ. We'll suffer losses if you have a bad luck."

Wangdong cast a glimpse at her, "I won't be as hapless as you are. Do you remember you lost to me each time we fought?"

"You"

Taking no notice of Duan Lengyan's fit, Wandong raised the pitch of his tone, "Now that you seem pretty concerned about it. Then, let's add more stakes to it. I'll expand the number of samples to one hundred. I'm gonna say there won't be any valid stone among them. Even if there is only one, I shall behead myself."

Leng Yuecui hastened to strike in, "Yaoting! Are you out of your mind?"

Fairly speaking, there would be at least ten stones containing the blood steel. Wandong's bet was technically a suicide.

Wu Qiujun and Duan Lengyan stared at one another, astonished. "How come Xu Yaoting has his heart set on a suicide?"

Wandong smiled at Leng Yuecui, "I just want to take a bet like that! In so doing, our Qingyun people will see what an unscrupulous company the Tianbao Mansion is! You'll only end up broke if you purchase a raw stone here. And the Tianbao Mansion gets your money for nothing!"

Wu Qiujun said in a grim tone, "Good lord, you're asking for death!"

Wandong sneered, "Don speak too soon. Just tell me whether you're in or not."

Zong Qi struck in with fury, "Wu Qiujun! You don't have balls!"

Wandong looked back at Zong Qi, somewhat bewildered, "Brother Zong, you know, the odds are terribly against us in this case. If I lose, you'll have to die with me. Aren't you afraid?"

"Of course not! I trust Childe Xu."

Cheered up by Zong Qi's support, Wandong laughed, "Fantastic! I'll do it without fear based on your word alone! And please drop the formality! Call me by my name as a friend!"
