C37 Betting Again?!

As the manager of Treasure Pavilion, Liu Qianqian had an extraordinary eyesight, so she naturally could tell that this was indeed a Qi Gathering Pill. After she received the pill with a smile, Liu Qianqian looked at Wu Hui. Her eyes suddenly focused, as though she had noticed something different about Bai Wuya. Looking carefully, she inwardly shook her head, but she thought that she had a dim eyesight. She then turned to look at Wang Chuan with a look of schadenfreude, and said, "Elder Wang, what else do you want to say? According to the gambling contract, you must give them the Medium Storage Ring."

Wang Chuan was now depressed. His old face had turned even paler as he looked at Huang Ziwei. He felt that he couldn't even cry in his heart.

"Master Huang, you have troubled Wang Family."

"Manager Liu, this pill of his is a primary Qi Gathering Pill, so he doesn’t win." Huang Ziwei's face had already turned sallow as he screamed loudly.

"What, isn't a primary pill a pill? Or did we mention that the primary pills didn’t count in the gambling contract?" Wu Hui revealed a look of ridicule, pointed at the gambling contract on the table and laughed coldly.

"Primary pills doesn’t count. You said that you were able to concoct superior pills." Huang Ziwei acted shamelessly.

Liu Qianqian's face darkened as she picked up the paper on the table, and her voice became ice cold, saying, “Huang Ziwei, no one in Xin Si City dares to act shamelessly in Treasure Pavilion. Since I, Liu Qianqian, am a witness, not abiding by the gambling contract means challenging my Treasure Pavilion."

"You…" In the face of Liu Qianqian's power, Huang Ziwei's Qi and blood surged, his face flushed red, and he was unable to speak for a moment.

"Huang Ziwei, no matter what, you are still a Pill Master, yet you are actually so shameless. I think your Wang Family shouldn't be called Wang Family, rather, you should be called a cowardly family. Do you abide by the gambling contract?” Wu Hui felt the medicinal effect in his body quickly dissipating, and the disguise pill's effects were almost over. Although he was anxious, he kept his calm on the surface. At such a critical moment, he could not afford to be careless.

Huang Ziwei's face turned red, but just as he was about to say something, Wang Chuan said, "Alright! Our Wang Family admits defeat." Each word was spoken through gritted teeth.

“That’s great! I believe that Wang Family still has some credibility. I can give you guys another chance and bet once again whether or not I can concoct a superior pill. What do you think?" Seeing Huang Ziwei's unconvinced face, the corner of Wu Hui's mouth curled as he said again in a mocking tone.

"Let's bet once more time." Hearing Wu Hui's words, Huang Ziwei's face moved slightly. Just a moment ago, he saw the black-faced man’s process of concocting pills, and he knew that the black-faced man’s cultivation realm was around his level. Even the black-faced man was superior to himself, it would not be that much. He really did not believe that could concoct a Superior pill.

Hearing Wu Hui's words, Hai Qinglan's face was full of respect, and inwardly shouted in her heart, “Wu Hui, what's going on? The effects of the disguise pill could disappear at any time, and you still want to bet with them.” Hai Qinglan looked at Wu Hui again and again, but Wu Hui pretended not to see it, and only ridiculed Huang Ziwei.

"You're going too far in bullying us! I'll bet with you!" Huang Ziwei cried out and was provoked by the black-faced man's undisguised contempt. However, before he could finish speaking, he was stopped by Wang Chuan, who shouted loudly, "Master Huang! Uncle Huang! Wang Family couldn’t afford to let us be so corrupt. I have already called you uncle, can you stop gambling?"

Wu Hui trembled because of Wang Chuan's words, but he never thought that even the word, Uncle, would be called out. Wu Hui naturally would not bet with Huang Ziwei anymore, and the effects of the disguise pill could disappear the next moment. What Wu Hui had said was to humiliate Huang Ziwei. He didn't expect Huang Ziwei to agree to his request. It was all thanks to Wang Chuan's "Uncle".

Upon hearing Wang Chuan's dissuasion, Huang Ziwei was now clear-headed. Recalling the scene of him concocting pills, Huang Ziwei felt that the black-faced man was not ordinary at all. If not for the fact that the black-faced man had collected the pills forcefully, he might have concocted an advanced pill, yet he intentionally concocted a primary pill in order to gamble with him again, and to trick him again. Thinking of this, Huang Ziwei's body became drenched in cold sweat. Huang Ziwei turned to Wang Chuan and bowed, "Thank you for your reminder, Elder Wang."

"How boring! We have just won a Storage Ring. Xiaoxian, let’s go. Uncle is hungry. Let's find a place to eat. With Treasure Pavilion as a guarantor, there is no need to worry about them breaking the promise." Wu Hui patted his stomach, his expression was unsatisfied, and said with waning interest.

Hai Qinglan really wished to leave quickly, and every breath he took felt a chill down his spine. He pulled Wu Hui's arm and walked towards the door.

...

Hai Qinglan and Wu Hui walked out of the room. When the two of them looked at each other, the original image of a village girl and a boor had already disappeared. The two of them had already returned to their original appearances. Hai Qinglan patted her chest and exhaled softly, thinking that it was really dangerous. She looked at Wu Hui reproachfully, but she knew that they shouldn't stay in this place for too long, so she quickly took out two veils from the Storage Ring and passed one to Wu Hui, covering his face. The two of them quickly went downstairs and out of Treasure Pavilion.

...

On the fourth floor of Treasure Pavilion, Huang Ziwei watched with resentment as Bai Wuya and Bai Xiaoxian left. He never thought that he would lose here, betting with someone, and lose a Medium Storage Ring. Although a Medium Storage Ring was precious, Huang Ziwei was more concerned with his own dignity. He had already been in Xin Si City for ten years, and his reputation was limitless in the past ten years. Everyone in Xin Si City respected him, but today he was so disgraceful. If today's matter were to spread out, he would definitely become another big joke within Xin Si City.

"Elder Wang, send someone to investigate who they are. I, Huang, will definitely avenge for today's humiliation." Huang Ziwei said out loud.

"Ok. Master Huang, don't worry. There are our people downstairs. I have already secretly informed them to follow these two people. At least, we will know their stopover." At the side, Wang Chuan was also extremely angry, his gaze filled with ruthlessness.

However, Liu Qianqian, who was in the room, had a face full of schadenfreude. It would be a loss of at least five million silvers.

...

"Elder Wang, I, Liu Qianqian, declare one more thing. If Wang Family is unable to fulfill this bet, Treasure Pavilion, will not agree."

Liu Qianqian's words made Wang Chuan and Huang Ziwei's face turn even more angry. The two of them harrumphed and did not stay any longer, turning and leaving the room.

...

Wu Hui and Hai Qinglan left the Treasure Pavilion with their faces covered, and after a few turns, they entered a small alley. Not long later, the two of them came out of the alley once again, and their clothes had already changed. There were two people in black lying on the ground of alley now.

"They’re Wang Family's Earth Grade guards. It seems that Wang Family does not want to suffer such a huge loss for nothing." Hai Qinglan and Wu Hui's footsteps were light and slow, and their expressions were casual as they walked along the streets of Xin Si City. When they were almost to the Wu Family, Hai Qinglan spoke out.

...

"Little niece, so what if they don't want to suffer a loss? We should at least get that Medium Storage Ring in our hands first." Wu Hui had a smile on his face as he felt refreshed. Today, being able to teach that Huang Ziwei a lesson, was truly too satisfying. With Treasure Pavilion as a witness, if Wang Family wanted to renege on his debt, they had to consider carefully.

"You little kid! It seems that you're addicted to being an uncle. You've taken advantage of me for a day." Hai Qinglan laughed and scolded, but she did not look angry.

The two of them had unknowingly returned to Wu Family.

...

Initially, Wu Hui wanted to go to Treasure Pavilion to sell some pills and to buy treasures on the auction. Only after going to Treasure Pavilion did he realize that the truly good things required more than just a little bit of money. It didn't work by selling pills, and in fact, it took a family a long time to accumulate wealth. Wu Hui understood this point, and decided to not think about selling the pill, but rather, to use the pill to increase his own cultivation.

The night was dark, and the stars were dim. After experiencing the hustle and bustle of the day, the Xin Si City became somewhat quiet.

Inside Wu Family, Wu Hui was sitting cross-legged on the bed, a white pill in his hand. Wu Hui's current state had already been adjusted to its best, and without hesitation, he threw the Qi Gathering Pill into his mouth.

The pill dissolved in Wu Hui's mouth as he felt a warm current rise from his Dantian's whirlpool. It flowed through his meridians and throughout his entire body. The Five Elements Arts revolved, and many Martial qi of wood attribute and fire attribute came over from the air, and were all absorbed into Wu Hui's body. The number of wood Fire Martial Qi in Wu Hui's body continued to increase.

"The superior Qi Gathering Pill is indeed extraordinary." Wu Hui was very satisfied with the superior Qi Gathering Pill that he had concocted. He felt that his cultivation speed had increased by almost three times compared to normal. To put it bluntly, Qi Gathering Pill could increase the cultivation speed for a period of time. The time would vary depending on the quality of the Qi Gathering Pill, a normal primary Qi Gathering Pill could sustain for around three days or so, and only raise the cultivation speed by half or so. As for a superior Qi Gathering Pill, it could sustain for ten days, and increase one’s cultivation speed by three times, which was a huge difference.

Wu Hui tasted the sweetness and simply ate another Qi Gathering Pill. He didn’t care since it was concocted by himself. However, after taking this pill, there were no changes. It was only then that Wu Hui knew that he would only be able to take one pill at most, and only when the effect of the first pill had passed, could he consume another pill.

Wu Hui took out the second type of pills, the superior Bone Tempering Pill. I have already taken two Qi Gathering Pills before, and I wonder if this Bone Tempering Pill will work." He did not hesitate and took another Bone Tempering Pill. As the pill entered his mouth, Wu Hui felt the bones in his body become slightly itchy, and in an instant, it had turned into a huge pain. The veins on Wu Hui's forehead were exposed and they were covered with sweat, but he clenched his teeth tightly, and the Five Elements Arts in his body was circulating frantically. He knew that this was an inevitable phenomenon when he took the Bone Tempering Pill. As long as he could withstand this wave of pain, the bones in his body would be greatly improved. Tempering one's bones would allow one's body to withstand an even greater pressure. When using some high-grade martial skills, one would not suffer backlash.

As time passed minute after minute, the pain in Wu Hui's body dissipated. He closed his eyes slightly and focused his mind, causing waves of wood Fire Martial Qi that were hard to be seen by the naked eye to gather in his body.

Now there was white light outside the window, and Wu Hui had cultivated for an entire night. Wu Hui could feel that Martial qi in his body had improved by a lot, and he could even feel that there was a membrane of the two-star of Profound Grade.
