King Of Seven Realms - Volume 4 Chapter 97 Bet.
“I will!” Yizhou said with gritted teeth.
No matter what he thought, he could not find a way out of this situation, more so when everyone has heard him accepting to bet.
If he had a great backing, then it might be possible, but what backing would allow him to against the Realm King? He knew that even if Wang Lei has not completed the disciple ceremony, he was already considered as the direct disciple of Realm King.
It would not be strange for her to kill him for Wang Lei. Everyone made way for Yizhou with his head hung down, he left the field.
Wang Lei did not bother looking in his direction. He was looking at the woman standing at the roof of the palace. She was looking towards him with astonishment, which increased when he gazed at her.
She seems to be surprised that Wang Lei found her out. Wang Lei looked at this woman from head to toe without hiding his gaze. He knew who this woman was. It was Mu Bingyun, also the woman who defended him during the direct disciple ceremony.
Bingyun’s displeasure showed on her face when she felt Wang Lei checking on her.
“Master!” Xiaolan said in excitement.
Bingyun, hearing her nodded. She looked towards Wang Lei and said, “Realm King is asking for you. Since you are healed, go meet her.” She said before vanishing.
‘Realm King, huh.’ Wang Lei rubbed his chin in thought.
‘If I remember correctly, then Realm King should be Mu Xuanyin.’ Wang Lei thought.
He was really interested in her since he could feel that she had more than one entity in her. He was thinking if her soul was made of more than one soul, or was she being controlled by someone?
Wang Lei thought of meeting her and checking it himself to see the secrets of her soul.
He looked towards Xiaolan and said, “Little lanlan, can you take me to Realm King?”
Xiaolan nodded. “But you should not anger Realm King, junior brother.”
“Oh, why?” Wang Lei asked with interest.
Xiaolan looked towards him with a strick expression and said, “I have heard that Realm King is a very fierce woman. She does not tolerate if someone goes against her, and would definitely punish them!”
Wang Lei become more interested in Xuanying. Soon, both of them reached the center of the Divine Ice Phoenix Sect.
“If you go there, you will reach Sacred Hall, Junior Brother. Normal disciples are not allowed to enter it, so I can only lead you up to here.” Xiaolan said while pointing her finger towards the Sacred Hall.
Wang Lei nodded and rubbed her head, “Thank you, Little Lanlan. You were of great help.”
Xiaolan enjoyed his petting but then, suddenly, slapped his hand away, “I am not Little Lanlan! Call me senior sister Xiaolan!”
Wang Lei was amused but did not reply and started to walk towards the Sacred Hall.
Xiaolan stomped her foot on the icy floor in anger. “I hope you get beaten by Realm King!”
Wang Lei almost slipped, hearing her. Shaking his head, he kept walking in the direction of the Sacred Hall in a carefree manner.
He saw many disciples along the way, who were pointing their fingers at him and were whispering to each other, but he ignored them and kept walking.
A moment later, he reached the Sacred Hall; without any civility, he opened the door and started to take a stroll inside. He did not give a shit about asking for permission.
Normally, he should have waited outside the Sacred Hall and announced his arrival. But he was too lazy to do that. He thought of enjoying the scenery.
Sacred Hall was quite different from the outside architecture. The whole hall was built with ice, yet it felt like he was in a gigantic crystal.
The whole structure was built with solid ice as clear as crystal. It was really a sight that would make one mesmerized.
Soon, he reached the center of the Sacred Hall. It was practically a world of ice.
There was a pond in the central area of this icy world that was only a bit over thirty square meters in area. The water of the pond was clear as a mirror and at its center was a snow lotus which was blooming proudly at this very moment.
This snow lotus was several times bigger than an ordinary one, and every one of its overlapped petals was the size of a palm.
It not only looked exceptionally pure, beautiful, and flawless, it was also shining with a faint, blue, and translucent light.
Its rootstalk, as well as the snow lotus itself, seemed to have been made of ice crystals formed by the condensation of purified water. They were truly dazzling to the eye.
At first glance, no one would think of it as something that had naturally grown and instead consider it an ice-crystal that had been carved in such away.
Wang Lei astonishingly looked at the icy lotus.
A surprise exclamation left his mouth, “Buddha Heart Lotus of Nine Resurrections!”
“You know of it?”
He did not look back from where the sound came from but kept looking at the lotus and using his to completely understand its structure so he could make one for himself.
Nodding, Wang Lei said, “Buddha Heart Lotus of Nine Resurrections is not only a thing that was left behind by the ancient gods, but it is also impossible for the second one of it to appear again in the world. It can be used to temper one’s meridians and also helpful in future cultivation I am surprised that one exits here. Really surprising.”
Wang Lei, after done the lotus, looked behind.
He saw Mu Xuanyin standing there with cold and emotionless eyes, looking at him as if to penetrate his very soul.
She had long hair that stretches all the way to her waist, and it has a special kind of icy color. It isn’t pure white but a l.u.s.trous white that is freckled with icy crystals and gleaming with a bit of light blue. Her hair is dazzlingly beautiful beneath the sunlight.
Her beautiful face, slightly slanted crescent brows, misty eyes, and gentle light pink colored lips could bewitch the soul and contained an indescribable charm.
Her figure was alluring to the extreme. A snow colored ribbon was tied around her willow-thin waist, and the snow robes covering her chest looks so round and full it is as if something would burst out of its trappings at any moment.
The buttocks beneath her slim waist were also rounder and firmer. Her entire body was dripping with a kind of allure and charm that ate away at both bones and souls.
Wang Lei enjoyed her figure without hiding his intentions whatsoever.
The surrounding temperature decreased at a fast pace as her eyes become colder and chiller.
Parting her cherry red lips, she said, “Close those disgusting eyes of yours before this king pluck them out!”
Her voice was devoid of any emotions, enough to make one heart palpitate.
Wang Lei did not look away; instead, he said, “Interesting. It really is interesting that your soul has not mutated yet as normally it should.”
Xuanyin, seeing him completely ignoring her, raised her hand. Formless energy left her body and went towards Wang Lei, but just as it was three meters away from him, is divided into two segments.
One to his left while the other to his right.
Mu Xuanyin narrowed her eyes. The energy that she released was enough to injure the Divine Origin Realm – mortally.
She did not think that Wang Lei would die, since she knew that he was a dragon having exceptionally strong bodies and she also observed his fight with Yizhou.
So she knew that he would not die, but she was sure that he would be injured. However, she never thought that he would somehow deflect or dodge it.
She looked towards Wang Lei, but her eyes widen as Wang Lei was no longer in front of her.
She felt an arm around her shoulder as a deep voice enters her ear, “Mah~, what a sort tempered woman. You should learn to control your temper more, you know. Violence is never an answer.”
Xuanyin energy surged out like a volcano, destroying her surroundings.
But Wang Lei was no longer present there. He stood at his original position, looking at her with interest.
Xuanyin looked towards him with hostility but did not attack him. Not that she was afraid of him, but because he stood in front of the lotus and she did not want to damage it.
“Who are you?”
Wang Lei raised his brow, “Do you not know?”
Xuanyin frowned.
Wang Lei smiled and placed his palm on his face, “It is I, Wang Lei!”
“”
“Ahem* You can call me Wang Lei, Lei’er, or Young Noble.” Wang Lei said.
Xuanyin quietly keeps looking at him with impassive eyes. “Are you from Dragon Realm?” she asked.
Since she knew that Wang Lei was a dragon, she thought he was from the Dragon Realm as it is the only place where dragons live.
“Dragon Realm?” Wang Lei asked, confused.
Seeing his expression, she knew that he was not from the Dragon Realm. But it confused her. If he was not from the Dragon Realm, then was there another place where dragons live, or is he an illegitimate child of someone from the Dragon Realm?
“Do you know why this kind has called you here?… this king has chosen you as her disciple. This king wants you to complete the master-disciple ceremony.” Xuanyin said.
Even if she did not know him, for some reason, she thought she should make him her disciple.
Wang Lei smiled and shook his head, “I cannot do that.”
Xuanyin’s frown deepened as she said in a harsh voice, “Are you saying this king’s not worthy enough to be your master?”
Wang Lei looked into her eyes, “Not only you, but no one in Primal Chaos is worthy to be called master by me!”
Xuanyin sneered, “What are you? Creation God or something? Being this arrogant, only destruction awaits for you.”
Wang Lei just smile, but it seems to annoy Xuanyin, who thought he was making fun of her.
“How about this then? If you can land on a solid hit on me, I will consider you as my master. And if not” Wang Lei smiled.
Xuanyin became interested and asked, “And if not?”
“It is simple, you will become my maid!” Wang Lei said.
He was really interested in her and thought of making her his maid.
Xuanyin snorted, hearing him. Maid? Her? The Realm King of Snow Song Realm? It was the biggest joke she has ever heard.
She looked towards him and said, “Very well!” She was sure of hitting him once.
There were many reasons like he was in Divine Origin Realm, and that he has internal injuries which will hinder him. The thought of her losing never crossed her mind.
Wang Lei grinned. He could tell what she was thinking, but he just smiled silently at that. So what if he was injured? As stated before, he still has his Physiques. It was virtually impossible to defeat him in terms of speed if the other person has not learned Soaring Immortal Physique like him.
“Then, should we change our position? You would not want to harm the lotus, right?” Wang Lei said as he pointed towards the lotus.
Xuanyin nodded and started to walk towards the outer layer of the Sacred Hall with Wang Lei behind.
Looking at her behind, Wang Lei has to say that she has a great body. It was enough to enchant anyone with her body alone.
‘Pervert!’
Wang Lei ignored Evil and kept following her while enjoying the view of her back.
Xuanying could feel his gaze. Her aura becomes even more chiller than before. She swore to break one or two bones in his body.
Soon, both reached the outer layer of the Sacred Hall. Xuanyin stopped and looked towards Wang Lei with a soul-piercing glare.
She swore she felt n.a.k.e.d in front of Wang Lei. Not only it made her uncomfortable and embarrassed, but also resentful of him. She wanted nothing but to let him taste her strength.
“Let’s start!” Xuanyin did not wast any words.
Wang Lei also did not say anything and nodded. Both silently looked at each other. While Wang Lei was smirking the whole time, Xuanyin was thinking of methods to torture him.
Suddenly, Xuanyin flipped her hand as a chilling wind blew towards Wang Lei, freezing everything in its way. It froze Wang Lei in it. Xuanyin could see his detestable smirking face inside the ice.
She sneered and said, “All bark but no bite. To think, you were foolish enough to challenge this king in Divine Origin.”
But she froze when she heard a voice in her ear as warm wind blew in it, “Of course, I know, whether I can win this bet or not. Why do you think I started the bet in the first place?”
Xuanyin spun and punched him. Her creamy white arm made contact with Wang Lei, but it passes through him.
Xuanyin was astonished. She knew that she has hit him, but at the last moment, she felt as if everything turns into slow motion.
She could see him standing at one position at one second and another at the other. She looked towards Wang Lei, who was standing at some distance from her, smirking.
Xuanyin grits her teeth, “How are you faster than me?”
She could not understand. She was Divine Master while Wang Lei was only at Origin Realm. It was virtually impossible to fill up the gap of speed that should have been like heaven and earth.
But here she was, looking at Wang Lei, who could easily fill up that gap.
Wang Lei shrugged his shoulder, “It is because I run a lot.”
Xuanyin’s temple twitched. Because he runs a lot? Then does that mean every mortal should be faster than cultivators? But still, she did not want to lose.
Her reputation was on the line. She again used her profound strength, but this time, she used her all. She shot towards Wang Lei, but no matter what she did, she could not catch his clothes, let alone landing a solid hit.
They continued fighting each other, or was it chasing each other? Xuanyin kept attacking him, but Wang Lei dodged her attack every time, maddening her to the extreme.
With that, hours passed, but Xuanyin still could not land a single hit. She was breathing heavily as she looked towards Wang Lei, who had the same smirk on his face since the start of the match.
“Damn it! Stop dodging and fight like a real man! You coward!” She gnashed her teeth and said.
Wang Lei chuckled and said, “If I do that, then there would be no point in this match. It is obvious that I am weaker than you; of course, I would choose something in which I am confident.”
Xuanyin, hearing him, tighters her fist. She was fuming with frustration and anger, both directed towards Wang Lei. She thought she should not have accepted the bet.
She called him arrogant, and now she was facing the same result. “This is cheating! You have never told me that you had such weird profound art that lets you move this fast!”
Seeing as she cannot win the bet, she chose her trump card, calling Wang Lei a cheater.
“Ara~, Is the prestigious Realm King of Snow Song Realm going to back off from the bet?”
“What bet?” Xuanyin said with a blank face.
Wang Lei smiled and snapped his fingers as a screen forms in the air. Xuanyin could see a recording being played there the recording of her accepting his bet.
“This recording, my little master.”
Wang Lei said, smirking. Xuanyin, who looked at the recording, knew that she has to follow the bet, but she still could not bring herself to become the maid of Wang Lei.
Her name represented the whole Snow Song Realm. If she became his maid, then that would be the same as saying that the whole realm has become his servant. Not only would it damage their reputation, but it would also cause civil unrest among the people of the Snow Song Realm.
“I know what you are thinking, Little Yin’er. You do not have to worry about that, as being my maid is more prestigious than being a Realm King. But for you, I will make a little exception. I will not call you my maid in front of the people till I get at the same level as you. How about that?”
Wang Lei knew what she was thinking, and he did not mind her hiding the fact that she has lost to an Origin Realm and become his maid.
The only reason he has made her his maid was because he was interested in finding more about her soul and the souls residing inside her, totally not because he thought that she was immensely beautiful.
‘Stop it, master, you are embarrassing yourself.’
‘You are getting more and more talkative these days, little Evil. I think it is time that you complete your promise and let me see your n.a.k.e.d figure.’ Wang Lei said to Evil.
Evil became shy. She remembered the day when she caught his dragon, and her blush deepened to an extreme level.
Since he did not receive any reply from Evil, he looked towards Xuanyin and waited for her reply. In the end, Xuanyin sighed.
Since Wang Lei has the footage of their bet, she could not go back on her words. She thought since Wang Lei will not tell anyone that she has become his maid it was alright.
And to be honest, she was kind of interested in him. She wanted to find how he was faster than her, which should be impossible.
Xuanyin nodded but said, “Can I have a request then?”
Wang Lei raised a brow and nodded.
“I want you to call me master when we are in front of the other people.”
Wang Lei instantly shook his head, “Did
I did not make myself clear before? I will not call anyone my master as there is no one worthy.”
Hearing it, Xuanyin sighed. “If that is your wish, Young Noble.”
Wang Lei smiled and said, “You do not have to call me Young Noble,” He could tell that she was quite stiff when she called him, “You can call me Lei’er if you want, Little Yin’er.”
Though her face was cold and emotionless, Wang Lei could see different turbulent emotions in her eyes. In the end, Xuanyin nodded.
