Elder Liao felt that he had been insulted like never before, and he was about to explode with anger.
He touched Xiaoyue with his finger and said with his beard trembling: "You actually look down on me! Well, how about we make a bet?"
"What to bet on?"
Lu Xiaoyue raised her eyebrows and her face became a little unhappy.
Elder Liao pointed his finger at her forehead. This behavior constituted a serious provocation. If it were normal times, she might have gone crazy.
She could still hold back at this time only because of what the other party said.
If you want to make a bet, let’s make a big one!
"Bet...what to bet on?"
Speaking of bets, Elder Liao's momentum suddenly weakened, and he didn't even know what bets he should take.
If it's too light, he can't say it, for fear of being laughed at by Lu Xiaoyue; if it's too serious, he can't say it... He doesn't have the right to say it!
"hehe……"
Lu Xiaoyue didn't say a word, just smiled coldly, and looked at Elder Liao until the elder's face turned red and he couldn't get off the tiger.
"Bet... bet, just bet on our Yuanxian Sect's world-destroying formation!"
Elder Liao suddenly thought of a good idea and said loudly: "The World-Destroying Formation is the secret of our Yuanxian Sect. Only the elders in the sect know it. I take it as a bet, okay?"
"Okay! Very good!" Lu Xiaoyue nodded and said with a smile on her face: "It seems that Elder Liao is very confident. He dares to use such things as bets. Aren't he afraid of being discovered by the master of your Yuanxian Sect?
"
"Humph! You don't have to worry about this!" Elder Liao tilted his head and said with a trace of disdain on his face: "Since it's a bet, you should come up with something, right?"
"Of course!"
Without saying a word, Lu Xiaoyue took out something from her arms, handed it to Elder Liao, and then said: "Elder Liao, what do you think of this?"
Elder Liao turned his head and took a closer look, and found that it was a drop-shaped bead.
At first glance, it looked unremarkable, but when he focused on it carefully, he immediately discovered what was different about the water droplets.
"Hiss, hiss..."
Elder Liao suddenly took a breath of cold air, pointed at the water drop with his right hand, and suddenly swallowed his saliva and said: "What's in here...is all spiritual energy?"
Although the water droplets were small, only as big as Lu Xiaoyue's fist, they were transparent and the contents inside could be seen.
What is inside is not a liquid, but a thick cloud that looks like a white cloud.
But when Elder Liao slowly approached, he suddenly felt a fresh feeling coming from above, which was the unique quality of spiritual energy.
No need to think about it, the thing in the water drop must be spiritual energy!
"That's right!" Lu Xiaoyue nodded, and then said with a smile: "This is a treasure I got. Not only can it hold a large amount of spiritual energy, but it can also naturally produce spiritual energy, which is equivalent to a portable spiritual energy source! This way
This treasure is worthy of your Yuanxian Sect’s world-destroying formation, right?”
"Of course! Of course!"
Elder Liao nodded repeatedly, looking at the water droplets with green eyes, and his saliva almost flowed out.
Such a good treasure is simply what he dreams of. As long as he can have one, his cultivation speed will increase exponentially. He may soon be able to break through this realm and become the third person in Yuanxian Sect besides the sect leader.
Two people!
There is even a chance to surpass the sect leader...
Thinking of this, Elder Liao trembled all over, and his whole body trembled with excitement.
Lu Xiaoyue looked at the other party's reaction and sneered in her heart, and quickly took the opportunity to say: "Well, since Elder Liao agrees with this treasure, let's make an oath!"
"Okay, okay! I'll make an oath!" Elder Liao agreed without hesitation.
Soon, both parties made their own oaths.
The content of the oath is the content of the bet just now: within half a month, Lu Xiaoyue needs to use a world-destroying formation alone, whether it is from the Soul-Destroying Sect or from other sects, as long as it is a world-destroying formation!
If it can be used, Lu Xiaoyue will win, and Elder Liao will lose to her Yuanxian Sect's World-Destroying Formation.
If he has to come out, Elder Liao will win and Lu Xiaoyue will lose a "water drop" to him!
After the oath was fulfilled, Elder Liao smiled and left quickly.
In his opinion, without the help of Yuanxian Sect, Lu Xiaoyue would definitely lose!
After watching Elder Liao leave, Lu Xiaoyue no longer had the interest to go shopping anymore, but went straight back to the yard.
In Lingjing City, she did not live in the previous city lord's mansion, but lived alone in a remote courtyard.
This place is usually only known to shopkeeper Hong and the disciples of Moon Martial Arts School. Other people in the city do not know that Lu Xiaoyue lives here, nor do they know Lu Xiaoyue's identity.
Now the army of the Western Shang Kingdom has surrounded Lingjing City, and the battle between the two sides is about to begin. The atmosphere in the city is extremely heavy, and the people have no time to worry about anything else.
Most of the young and middle-aged people, under the call of shopkeeper Hong, joined the ranks of defending the city, leaving only the old, weak, women and children at home.
However, everyone was confident about this war and there must have been no panic.
They believe that with the support of the entire Hanling Kingdom, they will definitely win.
All the troops that came to support were also stationed outside the city, with specialized personnel responsible for management and command.
For this power, Lu Xiaoyue completely delegated it to experienced generals, and did not take it for granted and give random orders.
After all, she knows nothing about fighting, so if she gives directions blindly, she might end up being self-defeating.
Back in the yard, someone soon came to report what happened yesterday and asked her what to do today.
Lu Xiaoyue's answer is simple - as usual!
The enemy cannot move, I cannot move...
Before the army of the Western Shang Kingdom launched an attack, all the troops defending the city maintained a defensive posture, waiting for the other side to make the first move.
After spending nearly two hours, Lu Xiaoyue finally finished handling the chores, large and small, and was very tired.
In fact, she doesn't need to handle many of these chores. She has basically delegated power to others, but those people are still willing to listen to her. They always have people show her the things to be handled first. After Lu Xiaoyue's guidance,
, those people started to deal with it.
In this way, although Lu Xiaoyue has a better understanding of what is happening in Lingjing City, she is still very tired.
After solving all these messy things, Lu Xiaoyue finally had some time of her own.
She sat in the study and thought for a while, then suddenly said: "Mu Guan, should we go to the Soul-killing Sect now?"
"There's no rush..." Jianzhen looked at the information in the study, shook his head and said, "The armies of the Western Shang Kingdom are coming to provoke more and more times. This shows that they are already prepared and will be there at any time.
We may launch an attack. If we are not here at this time, I am afraid no one can command the coalition forces outside the city... Then Lingjing City will be in vain..."
"Okay, then just wait!" Lu Xiaoyue nodded helplessly.
