Chapter 62 60. The old drunkard's interest is not in the wine.
The moonlight was dim and profound, illuminating people deeply.
It landed on the young woman's brows and black hair, adding a fragile beauty to her like that of Liuli.
"What... what do you want to do?"
Liu Ruoxue's usually cold voice also had a rare tremor that she herself hadn't noticed.
She didn't even know why, upon seeing the bell, she had started trembling subconsciously, and she could also feel that her Obscene Clothing had become slightly damp.
She took a deep breath, seemingly staring at him with a fierce gaze.
"Do not worry, fairy."
Xu Yuan played with the Golden Bell in his hand and smiled, "I didn't want to do anything."
"Heh."
Liu Ruoxue responded with a forced calm cold chuckle.
"I don't believe that."
"What? Is the fairy scared?"
Xu Yuan deliberately provoked.
"Scared? Who said I'm scared? I didn't say I wouldn't bet."
Liu Ruoxue held her head high, her expression cold, "Speak then, what do you want to do?"
"Fairy has been wearing it for so long, you must be tired, right?"
Xu Yuan said with a smile, "How about I help you wear this instead?"
"Shameless!"
Liu Ruoxue instantly understood his idea, her white jade cheeks quickly flushed a deep red, and her body trembled uncontrollably in shame.
"What do you take me for?"
"I naturally see the fairy as a righteous Sword Immortal."
Xu Yuan said seriously, "That's why I think the fairy wouldn't misunderstand me."
"Misunderstand?"
Liu Ruoxue took a deep breath to calm herself down, "Fine! Since you said I misunderstood you, then tell me, what special benefit does this object have for cultivation? It's clearly..."
Just wearing that thing made her feel humiliated.
Usually, she either feared accidentally touching it and revealing something was amiss, or was afraid it wouldn't stay put and would fall off.
Now, he actually wanted her to wear this thing herself?
This was clearly an act of teasing her.
"Of course it does."
Xu Yuan said calmly, "Our bet is simple, I will defeat the fairy openly without using the Illusory Realm, and the fairy has to defeat me without the bell ringing. If I use the Illusory Realm, then I lose, similarly, if the fairy's bell rings, then the fairy also loses."
"..."
"What restriction?"
Liu Ruoxue frowned and asked.
She already had a bad feeling about this.
"This Golden Bell was made using the same technique, but what's different is that if it rings three times, it will directly explode."
"You!"
Liu Ruoxue was startled and then flew into a rage, abruptly striding out with her still unaccustomed legs.
Ding!
At the same time, a crisp bell sound resonated clearly under the eaves.
Both of them appeared stunned.
Xu Yuan looked at her innocently.
As if to say, the person who moved was her, and he had nothing to do with it.
"Fairy, take it easy. I gave you three chances so you could get used to it."
Not only that, he even seemingly spoke in a frivolous tone.
"I will definitely kill you, and when the time comes, I'll hang one on you too."
Liu Ruoxue took a deep breath, her chest heaving dramatically, like the waves on a snowy plain.
This Golden Bell seemed a bit bigger than the previous one, making it slightly uncomfortable for her to adjust to.
"If the fairy wishes to hang one, you can do it now, but you will have to do it by hand..."
Responding to Xu Yuan, was an exceptionally brilliant flash of Bright Sword Light.
"Stop! Didn't you say you wouldn't use the Illusory Realm?"
"I said during the grand competition, not here."
...
The next day, the room was filled with serene light.
Xu Yuan pushed open the partially closed door, starting to sigh regretfully.
Liu Ruoxue, in her fury the night before, had almost demolished his house.
Fortunately, the patrolling senior sister arrived in time, which prevented him from being without a place to sleep.
However, as long as he had achieved his goal, it was fine.
As for sleep, for a cultivator, that was optional.
Xu Yuan's lips curved slightly into a smile; the reason he had proposed that condition the previous night was because he didn't want to waste too much energy on Liu Ruoxue, or to be precise, he didn't want to expose too much of himself when facing her.
After all, if he wanted to seize the first place, there was still a Zhen Dan from Yang Peak waiting for him.
Now, that was a genuine Core Formation Stage Cultivator.
So, he had no choice but to resort to some cunning tactics.
He hoped she would not blame him by then.
