Chapter 14: Betting (Seeking Collection)

  It would take two more hours, which made Lin Tianyang feel a bit surprised. After all, neither of them had much to prepare for. As for handing over things, it could be done in an instant, but soon he discovered why they had to wait.

  Only to see the disciple who had just recorded the identity and origin of the two, handed over the record to another Lei Yan Sect disciple. The person looked at it and wrote the content on two paper talismans, then together they were thrown into a law array. As he activated the law array, in an instant, two rows of light shadow text appeared on the square, roughly introducing the situation of the two who would soon be fighting to the death on the life and death stage.

  Lin Tianyang was initially puzzled as to why the people of Lei Yan Sect were doing this, but soon discovered that they were actually using the life and death struggle between the two as a bet.

  Lin Tianyang was also helpless about this, and he found that the odds of the two were quickly pulled apart soon after. An hour later, the odds of the man named Yun Tianfeng stabilized at 1:1.2, while Lin Tianyang's odds were 1:9, which made him somewhat laugh and cry, was the gap between himself and him really so big?

  "I bet a thousand spirit stones that Yun Tianfeng will win!" Just then, a familiar voice rang out. Lin Tianyang looked at the person who had bet on Yun Tianfeng's victory and sneered inwardly.

  Fang Jin saw him and sneered: "Lin brother, your Lin family actually produced such a thing. At this time, instead of cheering for his own people, he went to bet on the opponent's win. What a treacherous and ruthless person!"

  Lin Tianyang looked at Lin Tianyao, who was wearing the uniform of a Lei Yan Sect disciple and looking smug in front of him, and sneered: "Fang brother, don't insult wolves and dogs!"

  Lin Tianyao arrived at the Lei Yan Sect a few days ago and was accepted as an inner sect disciple due to his quota, today one of his senior brothers came here, Lin Tianyao curiously came to take a look, unexpectedly he encountered Lin Tianyang fighting a life-and-death duel on the arena.

  Ever since that day in Fang City when Lin Tianyang easily defeated him, Lin Tianyao had been harboring a deep-seated hatred for his own cousin. Even though he later gave up his spot to himself, he still didn't have any good feelings towards him. That's why he deliberately went to bet on the disciple of Lei Yan Zong who was closest to Lin Tianyang, just to let him know.

  Lin Tianyao had been paying attention to this side after finishing his vote, and as soon as Lin Tianyang spoke with shame, he coldly snorted: "Lin Tianyang, I also learned from you. In the past, in Sanxian Town's market, didn't you teach me not to be impulsive? Now that I've learned my lesson, of course, I'll cast my Spiritual Stone for the winning side!"

  "Lin brother, I believe you will definitely win!" Fang Jin couldn't help but say a sentence, then walked to the front of Lei Yan Zong's disciples and directly bet 300 spiritual stones on Lin Tianyang winning. Of course, it was also because he had personally seen how formidable Lin Tianyang was at San Xian Town that he dared to make such a heavy bet.

  Leng Qingfeng saw him doing this and didn't hesitate at all, also going up to bet 300 Ling Stones that Lin Tianyang would win.

  After he came back, he walked to Lin Tianyang's side and whispered: "Lin Tianyang, although Yun Tianfeng is a member of the Yun family, my aunt now has an unyielding position in the Leiyan Sect. I just sent her a transmission talisman, so when the time comes, you must not shrink back!"

  "Your aunt? Could it be the one who won the Three Families' Duel twenty years ago at the age of thirteen and was then sent to the Lei Yan Sect, Leng Yue?" Lin Tianyang suddenly remembered someone upon hearing this and asked in surprise.

  Leng Qingfeng nodded and said, "Not bad, I saw her just two days ago. Aunt is now at the mid-stage of building foundation, while her master is a golden elixir cultivator in the later stage. It's said that she will soon try to condense her yuan fetus! Although the Yun family has an old ancestor who is a golden elixir cultivator of the Lei Yan Sect, Aunt will definitely speak up for them because of their connection with San Xian Town!"

  When Lin Tianyang heard Leng Qingfeng's words, he felt a lot more at ease in his heart. Although he wasn't afraid of Yun Tianfeng, it was indeed a headache to deal with the old ancestor from his family. Now that they had connections on their side within the Lei Yan Sect as well, Lin Tianyang smiled and said: "In that case, Brother Leng, I think you're short on spirit stones!" After finishing speaking, Lin Tianyang directly walked up to the Lei Yan Sect disciples and threw out 3,000 spirit stones, saying: "I'm betting on myself to win!"

  Even a cultivator of the First Refining Stage, even if they were quite wealthy, would be impressive to take out several hundred spirit stones. Lin Tianyang taking out three thousand spirit stones at once was enough to surprise the disciples of Lei Yan Sect.

  That bearded big man saw it afterwards, his eyes narrowed and looked at Lin Tianyang a few times, and then he actually took out 1,000 spirit stones to bet on Lin Tianyang's win.

  Lin Tianyang was somewhat surprised after seeing him and said, "Senior actually bet on me to win, aren't you afraid of losing money? You should know that I'm only at the tenth level of Qi Refining, while Yun Tianfeng has a cultivation base of twelve levels!"

  The bearded big Han chuckled and said, "You're only at the 10th level of cultivation, yet you dare to step onto the Life and Death Stage. It's clear that you must have some backing. Why shouldn't I take a gamble? Alright, time is almost up, you should go up too!"

  Lin Tianyang smiled slightly and didn't say a word, but instead followed the bearded man's words and went up to the life-and-death stage. The bearded man looked at Lin Tianyang, his eyes somewhat complex, and thought to himself: "This kid gives me a feeling that is extremely similar to that person, if he can come out alive, maybe he'll be another ruthless character."

  Among the onlookers below, Song Anping, a senior fellow apprentice whom Lin Tianyao had just met, looked at the two people on stage and asked Lin Tianyao, "Tianyao, you and your cousin seem to have a very bad relationship?"

  Lin Tianyang knew that Song Anping was still a Qi Refining stage cultivator, but his master was a genuine Golden Dan stage senior. He said respectfully: "My cousin is selfish and treacherous, in order to obtain the family's quota for the Lei Yan Sect, he even used a real treasure to win during the family's martial arts competition. Fortunately, the elder of the family was wise and took away his quota for the Lei Yan Sect, and instead gave it to me."

  "By what you said, your cousin is really a narrow-minded person!" Song An said calmly.

  Lin Tianyao just didn't mention that Lin Tianyang voluntarily gave up his quota, and now he continued to pour dirty water on Lin Tianyang: "Isn't it? After he lost the quota, relying on his slightly higher cultivation than me, he deliberately humiliated me in front of everyone. That's why I made a great vendetta with him. Otherwise, coming from the same clan, I would have stood together with him!"

  Song Anping and Lin Tianyao had just met, but thinking that the Lin family was willing to send Lin Tianyao to Lei Yan Zong, it seemed that his words were mostly true. So he didn't have a very good impression of Lin Tianyang either, with a hint of sarcasm: "However, this time your older cousin really ran into a brick wall, that Yun Tianfeng is the great-grandson of one of my master's uncles!"

  "Really?" Upon hearing this, Lin Tianyao's heart was even more ecstatic, and he laughed, saying: "Wait for me to win this bet, I'll give you half of it, Master!"

  Song Anping was overjoyed when he heard that there were spiritual stones available, and said, "Younger brother, how can this be?"

  Lin Tianyao smiled and said, "Junior brother has no backing in the sect, but if there's a senior brother like you to support me, junior brother won't have to worry about some unexpected things!"

  Song Anping heard that Lin Tianyao would behave himself, and with a pleased expression guaranteed: "You can rest assured of this, as long as you don't stir up trouble, I'll ensure that you can cultivate safely!"
