Chapter 2361
From the moment Chen Xuan stepped onto the stage and the isolation array was activated, Xuan Yi, Xuan Ye, Xia Jiuyou, Huang Quan, Chen Xi, and the others stopped their previous wailing and frolicking and stood quietly to the side.
Because the stakes in the final bet were so enormous, no one noticed the change in their expressions.
Lu Xueqi accepted the ring, her eyes sparkling, a faint blush rising on her cheeks, her voice soft yet firm: "Yes, my husband."
With a slight movement of her fingertips, she carefully put the ring away, mentally calculating their respective hundredfold share. During this time, she couldn't hide the joy in her eyes at this enormous fortune, as well as her complete trust in Chen Xuan.
"We've struck it rich! Hahaha! We've really struck it rich!" Upon hearing that Chen Xuan would give him a hundredfold return on his principal, Xuan Yi jumped for joy, clenching his fists and waving them vigorously. His blood and qi surged slightly with excitement, and his face was filled with undisguised ecstasy.
"Senior Brother Chen Xuan, I'll keep my principal as my dowry, and I don't want any dividends!" Saintess Huang Quan held Chen Xi's hand, stood on tiptoe, and shouted loudly. Her voice was clear and bright, deliberately letting many powerful figures inside and outside the arena hear her clearly. Her eyes were full of cunning and shyness.
Chen Xi nodded in agreement, her cheeks flushed, and she looked intently at Chen Xuan.
Upon hearing this, Lu Xueqi and Xia Jiuyou rolled their eyes in unison, their expressions showing a hint of helpless reproach. However, their hands moved quickly, precisely according to the proportion of their respective principal, stuffing the storage containers containing Chaos Unit treasures into everyone's hands.
"Wow—so many treasures!" Zixia held the small storage bracelet, her big eyes sparkling with gold, her little face full of excitement. She had already made up her mind: she would buy two skewers of candied hawthorn made of ten-thousand-year-old vermilion fruit, eat one, and throw the other away, indulging in this wealth to the fullest.
Chen Xuan and his group of eight all received a large share of the spoils, their joy evident in their expressions.
The weight of the 100-fold bonus far exceeds imagination—even the 8 Chaos Units that Xia Jiuyou initially offered would become 800 Chaos Units after a 100-fold increase. This value is comparable to that of first-class True Immortals who have been fighting bloody battles on the border of the Imperial Pass for many years.
You must know that they had only been at the border of the capital for a few days, yet they had already amassed such a fortune. How could this not make others envious?
Chen Xuan originally wanted to receive a 300-fold bonus, but then he thought that while he had enough power to deal with those who coveted it, his friends might not.
To prevent them from being taken advantage of by others due to their windfall, a compromise was reached by distributing the wealth a hundredfold. This amount of wealth is not worth the attention of the Immortal King. Although those at the Void Reversal Realm and Celestial Immortals are envious, they may not necessarily have the strength to easily kill Xia Jiuyou and his group.
"In that case, this life-or-death duel is over!" As the True Immortal Puppet finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved it. The isolation array that enveloped the arena slowly dissipated, and the flowing light gradually faded away.
Those big spenders who lost their bets got up listlessly, dejected, wanting nothing more than to leave as soon as possible and escape this place that had bankrupted them.
Just then, whoosh—
A dazzling white streak of light shot through the air and landed directly in the center of the arena.
The newcomer was dressed in a white feathered divine robe, the sleeves fluttering and radiating a faint divine glow. His face was as handsome as jade, and his brows exuded a gentle yet sharp heroic spirit.
The moment he appeared, the terrifying aura of the Celestial God Realm erupted, sweeping across the entire area like Mount Tai pressing down, freezing the surrounding air.
The sudden turn of events caused all the cultivators who were about to leave to stop and focus their attention on the white-feathered youth, their eyes filled with astonishment and curiosity.
This is the personal disciple of Daoist Liuyue, making his first appearance in Wujiang City. Although many powerful figures did not recognize him, his flawless foundation in the Heavenly God Realm was enough to startle people – reaching the peak of the Heavenly God Realm at such a young age was something that no ordinary force could cultivate.
Feeling the sharp, sword-like gaze locked onto him, Chen Xuan slowly raised his eyes, calmly confronting the white-feathered youth, his aura remaining still.
"Who goes there?" Upon seeing this, the True Immortal Puppet stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "If you wish to challenge me, you must state your identity and abide by the rules of Boundless City."
