Chapter 1229 Raising the Bet
As soon as Li Zhihuo finished speaking, there was an uproar in the surrounding area. Many members of the Five Guards were salivating because they were attracted by Li Zhihuo’s bet of up to 40,000 dragon essences.
Forty thousand dragon spirits, this is by no means a small number among the five guards.
After all, even for the position of commander, the annual salary is only about 10,000 dragon spirits. Although the salary is only a part of the source of dragon spirits, it is difficult for the twenty commanders of the five guards to earn this amount even if they travel for more than half a year. .
Other Qianwei and ordinary members are even less likely.
So the bet that Li Zhihuo is making now is really exciting.
Li Fuluo frowned slightly, stared at Li Zhihuo coldly, and said, “I asked you why you showed up at Tianlong Treasure House. It turns out you were waiting here.”
I’m afraid Li Zhihuo’s original purpose was to try to seduce him with a heavy bet. Li Luo and the two then invited them into this bet to solve the hidden danger of Li Hongyou.
Li Zhihuo was noncommittal and said with a smile: “One Li Hongyou can fight forty thousand dragon essences, which is actually not a loss.”
Li Fuluo sneered, turned to Li Luo and said, “What do you think?”
Li Luo shook his head with a smile and said: ” No gambling.”
There was a low uproar around him. Li Luo refused too simply. The 40,000 dragon spirits seemed not to be taken seriously by him at all, but now that he is a new member of the Dragon Tooth Guard, he should be the one who needs the dragon most. When you’re cumming, right?
“Commander Li Luo is really impressive, but as far as I know, the feudal technique you are changing now is still on credit, right?” Li Zhihuo said, seemingly a little surprised.
Li Luo laughed and said: “Not to mention these 40,000 dragon spirits, even if the payment is 400,000, I will not accept your bet.”
“I promised Senior Hongyou that I would take her with me . Come to Longya Guard to fulfill her wish. Now that I have agreed to your bet, doesn’t it mean that I have sold her?”
“Does Lord Li Zhihuo think that my promise, Li Luo, is worth these 40,000 dragon spirits?”
As soon as these words came out, everyone around them looked surprised, and then their eyes towards Li Luo changed slightly. The latter’s words really showed that he was a kind and righteous person.
“This Li Luo is a trustworthy person.” Wen Xuan, the commander-in-chief of Dragon Scale Vein, nodded in admiration and whispered to Lu Qingmei.
Lu Qingmei also nodded slightly and said softly: “Li Luo has indeed a good character and is a partner worthy of making friends and trusting. In the spiritual cave, when we cooperated with him, he never treated us poorly because of his power. “
Li Fuluo couldn’t help but glance at Li Luo. He didn’t expect that Li Luo would refuse so simply. After all, Li Hongyou came to Longya Guard and was almost helpless. Li Luo was her only supporter, so Li Luo No matter what Luo decides, I’m afraid Li Hongyou won’t have any room to object.
But Li Luo didn’t do that.
Even if the other party tempted him with a heavy bet, he remained indifferent.
This character is really good.
Moreover, Li Zhihuo lured Li Zhihuo with a lot of money in public. This move may not be a trap. If Li Luo is really attracted by it, it will give other people the impression of being greedy and ruthless. How can such a person win the hearts of the Five Guards?
After all, no one wants to follow a leader who will sell his subordinates at any time.
And Li Hongyou knows this, even if she doesn’t say anything, she will definitely be disappointed in her heart. No matter whether Li Luo wins or loses this bet, it will be difficult for her to stay in Longya Guard for a long time.
So Li Zhihuo’s bet was a trap from beginning to end.
In the low uproar, Li Zhihuo narrowed his eyes slightly. It seemed that he still underestimated Li Luo’s determination, and even 40,000 dragon spirits could not impress him.
“Wish? What wish can Li Hongyou have after entering the Dragon Tooth Guard?” At this moment, Li Hongque suddenly gritted his teeth and his face became very gloomy.
Because she knows best what she did to Li Hongyou and her daughter back then, and now that Li Hongyou has entered the Dragon Tooth Guard, there is no need to think about it, it must be for her.
How dare this wretched maid even think of taking revenge on her? !
“Li Hongque, you should know best what I wish for, right?” Just when Li Hongque’s voice just fell, a calm and indifferent voice suddenly sounded in the field.
Everyone was startled and turned around to see a beautiful figure with long red hair, a cold face, and a faint fragrance standing there.
It was Li Hongyou.
“Senior Hongyou?” Li Luo was a little surprised when he saw her.
Li Fuluo said lightly: “I saw Li Hongque and the others came to the Tianlong Treasure House before, and they asked someone to find her.”
Li Luo’s mouth twitched, wouldn’t it mean that if he accepted the bet before, wouldn’t he also be attracted by Li Hongyou? Did you hear it on the spot? Well, you thick-browed and big-eyed Li Fuluo didn’t even remind him in advance.
“Li Hongyou, how dare you, a cheap maid, appear in front of me?!” Li Hongque looked at the vaguely familiar face. He was in a daze for a few breaths, and then a look of anger emerged in his eyes, and he said sternly.
“Li Hongque, I haven’t seen you for many years, but you are still so mean and uneducated. It seems that Li Yuanzhen really didn’t teach you much.” Li Hongyou said lightly, and his eyes were filled with something that Li Luo had never seen before. Hatred and frost.
“You dare to arrange for your father? You are a cheap maid, you are really looking for death!” Li Hongque’s eyes were full of disgust and coldness, and the majestic force in her body suddenly burst out. As soon as her figure moved, she rushed towards Li Hongyou. .
At the same time, his palms were raised, making a sharp sound of breaking wind, and he slapped Li Hongyou hard on the face.
However, this slap did not fall, because a sword edge flowing with light power first stopped at Li Hongque’s fair neck.
The sharp edge on it caused goosebumps to appear all over Li Hongque’s body.
She looked at Jiang Qing’e who was holding the sword with anger and coldness, and said in a cold voice: “What does it have to do with you if I teach my family members a lesson?”
Li Luo heard this and said calmly: “This is the Qianwei of our Dragon Tooth Guard. You don’t have the slightest connection. If you hurt people for no reason, then it’s no wonder that we, the Dragon Tooth Guard, are so rude.”
Facing Li Luo’s protection, Li Hongque was so angry that his chest hurt.
“Hongque, come back.” Li Zhihuo said. At this time, Li Hongyou held the position of Dragon Tooth Guard Qianwei. It was indeed not in line with the rules for Li Hongque to take action against him.
Hearing this, Li Hongque could only retreat slowly and hatefully, and at the same time, his eyes were like knives as he slashed Li Hongyou fiercely.
Li Zhihuo looked at Li Luo and said calmly: “Commander Li Luo, Li Hongyou is a person of dragon blood. Whether you admit it or not, this is a fact. Your actions are indeed breaking the rules.”
Li Luo sneered and said It also became sharper: “Senior Hongyou and her daughter were driven out of the Dragon Bloodline by Li Hongque since they were young. They have been homeless for many years and have lived a miserable life. During this time, they have not used even half of the resources of the Dragon Bloodline. Now others rely on themselves. After a small achievement, you came out and said that she is from your dragon bloodline, Li Zhihuo Wei Zun, are you too thick-skinned?” There were
also some whispers around. Originally, they were onlookers, and they were not too thick-skinned. He was very clear about the exact relationship between Li Hongyou and Li Hongque. Now that he heard what Li Luo said, he realized that there was such a story in it, and his eyes towards Li Hongque immediately became a little strange.
What is Li Hongque’s personality like among the Five Heavenly Dragon Guards? As we all know, this is indeed something she can do despite being arrogant and mean.
As a result, others naturally felt a little pity for Li Hongyou and felt that Li Hongque was really overbearing.
Li Zhihuo said expressionlessly: “We will inform cousin Li Yuanzhen about this matter. When the time comes, he will report it to the pulse leader, and the pulse leader will communicate the matter with Li Jingzhe pulse leader.”
“Then wait for communication. Let’s talk about it after the results come,” Li Luo said calmly.
Li Zhihuo knew that talking more would be useless, so he planned to turn around and leave.
But at this moment, Li Hongyou’s voice suddenly sounded.
“Li Zhihuo, Wei Zun, if you want to bet so much, why don’t you bet bigger? A mere 40,000 dragon spirits is a bit of an insult to your status as Wei Zun.”
Li Zhihuo’s footsteps suddenly stopped, and he turned his head and looked into his eyes. Li Hongyou turned over and said quietly: “What do you mean?”
“It’s not impossible if you want to bet.”
Li Hongyou’s voice sounded coldly.
“But the bet will be doubled. If you lose, you will give 40,000 dragon spirits to Jiang Longya Envoy and Li Luo Commander each. If you win, I will leave the Dragon Tooth Guard.”
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
Li Luo also quickly said: “Senior Hongyou, there is no need to use yourself as a bet!”
Li Hongyou smiled playfully and whispered: “There are so many dragon spirits, aren’t you excited? This is an excellent opportunity. “
Li Luo smiled bitterly, “Eighty thousand dragon spirits, it’s too false to be unmoved. With such a number, even for a Wei Zun like Li Zhihuo, I’m afraid it’s a year’s effort.
However, these 80,000 dragon essences are not so easy to obtain.
“I believe you.” Li Hongyou said softly.
Li Luo rubbed the center of his brows. Each of these people knew how to put pressure on him.
Have you forgotten that I am still just a person in the Great Heaven Realm? !
