Chapter 64 Three Hundred Rivers
“Junior brother, you have already won the bet with Xiao Daoyi, but… you should not ask for too much later, or you will look too ugly when eating.”

Li Qingque whispered in Zhang Qian’s ear.

“Don’t worry, Senior Sister. I know my limits. I also know that although my mind is strong and I have comprehended the sword intent, I am not sure I can defeat Xiao Daoyi if I really fight him. Now is not the time to fight to the death with Xiao Daoyi.”

Xiao Daoyi is, after all, a powerful Jindan, and he was born with sword bones. Although Zhang Qian has never seen Xiao Daoyi show his sword intent, he is very sure that the sword intent Xiao Daoyi has comprehended must be extremely extraordinary, otherwise Xiao Daoyi would not be known as the number one of the younger generation in Xingyun State.

“As long as you know what’s appropriate.”

Zhang Qian smiled softly: “Although I can’t ask for too much, it’s good to make him feel the pain for a while.”

“You intend to …”

Without waiting for Li Qingque to ask, Zhang Qian turned around and bowed to Xiao Daoyi: “Brother Xiao, the winner is now determined, what do you think of our bet…?”

“What are your conditions? Just tell me, Junior Brother Zhang.” Xiao Daoyi seemed very generous, with a smile on his face, and said meaningfully: “This time, Junior Brother Zhang, I have really opened my eyes. I knew you were strong-minded before, but I didn’t expect you to comprehend such a terrifying sword intent. When you are free, come to my Hun Tian Island and sit down. We can learn from each other about sword intent.”

Zhang Qian nodded with a smile: “Of course, Senior Brother Xiao was born with a sword bone, and his understanding of sword intent must be extraordinary. I dare not compare with my sword intent. Now that the winner is determined, I will not be polite.”

“Haha, why are you being so polite? Now that the Supreme Master is here, just state your conditions.”

When Xiao Daoyi mentioned the Supreme Leader, he was obviously secretly reminding Zhang Qian not to go too far.

“Haha, I’m not a greedy person without measure. I heard that Senior Brother Xiao has the jurisdiction over the three hundred rivers west of Jianhu Palace. I’m not asking for too much. My condition is these three hundred rivers. Please, Senior Brother Xiao, give me the jurisdiction over these rivers.”

“you……”

Xiao Daoyi’s expression changed slightly, and a cold look appeared in his eyes.

“What a big appetite!” Guan Zhongxuan glared at him. “Don’t you think you are asking for too much? Daoyi wrested the jurisdiction of the three hundred rivers from countless divine sects and demonic sects. He went through countless battles during this period. You want to take it away just by touching your lips. Isn’t that too much? Isn’t this called greed?”

Zhang Qian chuckled: “Elder Guan, the bet between Senior Brother Xiao and I seems to have nothing to do with you, right? Senior Brother Xiao hasn’t said anything yet, why are you so anxious?”

“You…you…! You are so outrageous!”

Guan Zhongxuan paused, somewhat speechless.

“What do you think, Senior Brother Xiao? Is my offer not too much?”

Xiao Daoyi suppressed his anger and forced a smile: “It’s not too much. I agree. This is the River God Token that controls the three hundred river gods. With this token in hand, you can command the three hundred river gods.”

Whoosh!
Xiao Daoyi threw a bronze token over. When Zhang Qian caught it, Xiao Daoyi felt pain in his flesh and anger rising in his heart, but he couldn’t vent it. He could only hold it back and put on a gentle smile on his face. It was really difficult for him.

He never expected that Zhang Qian’s conditions were like this. Those 300 rivers were just as Guan Zhongxuan said, and were taken away by Xiao Daoyi from many divine sects and demonic sects with great difficulty. During this process, he experienced a lot of killing and Xiao Daoyi was even seriously injured several times. Now they were taken away by Zhang Qian.

Unfortunately, even if he didn’t want to give it, he had to. Now that the master was in front of him and there were many disciples watching, Xiao Daoyi didn’t have the face to go back on his word.

Zhang Qian scanned the token in his hand and saw three hundred light spots floating up and down in the token.

“Is this a wisp of the spirit soul of those river gods? It seems that the method used by Jianhu Palace to control the river gods is different from that of Mangcang Sword Sect.” Zhang Qian used to be the god of Lishui River. The method used by Mangcang Sword Sect to control the river gods is to insert a river god talisman deep into the soul of the river god in order to control the river god’s spirit soul.

However, the method of Jianhu Palace is different. It is to use the River God Token to capture a wisp of the River God’s soul. As long as the token is in hand, with a thought, those disobedient River Gods can be made to suffer a fate worse than death and suffer the pain of their souls exploding.

“Thank you, Senior Brother Xiao, for your generosity. I would be honored to refuse!”

Zhang Qian bowed, put away the River God token, and turned to Li Qingcheng and saluted, “Master, I have just made a breakthrough in my cultivation. Please allow me to step down and consolidate my cultivation.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was unable to say anything. They remembered that Zhang Qian had opened up all the acupuncture points in his body in one go like setting off firecrackers. Now, who would believe that he wanted to go down to consolidate his cultivation?

“Okay, remember to come to the sect’s main hall tomorrow.”

Zhang Qian was about to leave when Xiao Daoyi suddenly said, “Master, I have a lot of feelings after losing to Zhang Qian this time. Since I was called the best of the younger generation in Xingyun Province, I have become arrogant and frivolous, which has disappointed many people. Now I want to enter the Sword Gourd Cave to retreat, please allow me, Master!”

Many people were slightly stunned. They didn’t expect Xiao Daoyi to say this.

Zhang Qian’s mind raced as he began to guess what Xiao Daoyi was thinking. He didn’t believe that a man like Xiao Daoyi would be discouraged by a gambling game. He must have a deeper purpose for wanting to stay in seclusion.

“You want to retreat?”

Li Qingcheng looked at Xiao Daoyi deeply. Zhang Qian didn’t know if it was an illusion, but he actually saw a flash of fear in Li Qingcheng’s eyes!

Just as Zhang Qian was wondering curiously, Xiao Daoyi said again: “Please allow me, Master!”

After a long while, Li Qingcheng said, “Have you thought it through? It’s easy to get into the Sword Gourd Cave Heaven, but it’s not easy to get out. Many disciples on the Ascension List are in seclusion in the Sword Gourd Cave Heaven, and only a few can walk out on their own.”

“I have made up my mind! Even if there was no gambling, I have long wanted to enter the Sword Gourd Cave to comprehend the sword heart and hone the sword intent. It’s just that I have been entangled in trivial matters and burdened by fame, so I have never had the opportunity.”

Xiao Daoyi’s expression was very determined.

“Well, I’ll arrange for you to enter Jianhu Cave Heaven in a few days, so go down and prepare!”

“Thank you for your help, Master!”

Xiao Dao had an expressionless face as he glanced at everyone present. When he saw Zhang Qian, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

“Let’s go too. The headmaster wants to cast a spell to subdue the demons from the outer void. There is no magic array or prohibition here that can suppress the demons in the Shangyuan Bajing Palace. Once the demons from the outer void arrive, this place will become a demon land outside the domain.”

Li Qingque gave a reminder, but saw Zhang Qian’s eyes light up.

Zhang Qian opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopped himself. In the end, he said nothing. Li Qingque manifested a hundred-foot-long sword rainbow, which wrapped the two of them and flew straight to the top of the fairy mountain on the Demon Refining Island.

After returning to Li Qingque’s house, Zhang Qian asked impatiently, “Senior sister, the master can cast a spell to capture the demon from the sky. Can you do this?”

He was extremely concerned about this issue. If Li Qingque could also cast a spell to capture the demons, he would rather expose the Demon Pagoda to Li Qingque and let Li Qingque cast a spell to capture an endless stream of demons.

As long as there are enough Heavenly Demons, he will have enough Heavenly Demon Essence to temper his body!
