Chapter 156 Blessing in Disguise

"Welcome to the Dragon Essence Temple, esteemed guests. How may I help all of you today?" Long Yujin spoke with a friendly smile on his face, acting like he didn’t know why they were there.

"You don’t have to play dumb, Sect Master Long. You know exactly why we are here. Spare the ignorance and let us get straight to the point." One of the experts there suddenly said in an arrogant voice.

"..."

The friendly smile on Long Yijun’s face immediately disappeared, and he responded in a cold voice, "Then I will be as straight as a sword— You lot coming here was a waste of time. I won’t tell you anything, so you can all return to your sects now. Thank you."

"Don’t be like that, Sect Master Long. We are only here because we are concerned about the phenomenon that happened in the Dragon Essence Temple not long ago," said a different individual.

"Concerned? About what? Why does whatever happens in the Dragon Essence Temple concern the Golden Hand Mountain or any of you for that matter?" Long Yijun said with a puzzled look on his face.

"Cut the crap, Sect Master Long. We didn’t waste transportation treasures to come here just to go back empty-handed. Which disciple cleared all 100 floors in the Carp Leaping Over Dragon’s Gate Tower? We all saw it on our way here— a golden tower with all 100 floors emitting a golden light!"

"And who told you to use those transportation treasures? I don’t recall inviting any of you to the Dragon Essence Temple. Perhaps I am truly getting old..." Long Yijun cleaned his ears with his pinky.

"You damn old fart..."

The experts there gritted their teeth in irritation. They knew that it was going to be incredibly hard to get Long Yijun to open his mouth, especially when this is related to someone talented enough to make history, but they didn’t expect it to be this difficult.

"Don’t worry, you’ll get to meet with this genius at the Mystic Realm in a month. Hahaha!" Long Yijun laughed out loud, and the sect elders standing beside him couldn’t help but lose their composure and giggle like little kids in a serious classroom.

"Hmph! So what if he’s slightly talented? That’s not saying much since he’s from this place! I doubt he’ll be able to affect the Dragon Essence Temple’s ranking in the Mystic Realm even if he can clear all 100 floors in the Carp Leaping Over Dragon’s Gate! In fact, I bet my disciples will be able to do the same!" One of the Sect Masters there suddenly exclaimed.

"Oh? Is that so? Are you willing to bet on that?" Long Yijun’s eyes suddenly flickered with profoundness.

When the Sect Master saw Long Yijun’s confident grin, he said, "Good! What do you want to bet on?!"

Long Yijun suddenly retrieved his spatial ring before taking out a beautiful golden sword from within, and he said afterward, "I will bet this Dragon Slaying Saber that none of your disciples will beat 100 floors."

"The Dragon Slaying Saber?! You’re really going to bet that?!" The people there were greatly shocked by Long Yijun’s offer, and they all swallowed nervously when they felt the overbearing aura emitting from the golden saber.

The Dragon Slaying Saber is a Divine-grade treasure that has been passed down from Sect Masters to Sect Masters in the Dragon Essence Temple, and it was unthinkable to them that Long Yijun would be bold enough to gamble such a precious treasure.

"Hahaha! Good! Since you’re so confident, I shall also be confident!" The other Sect Master also retrieved his spatial ring before taking out a long green spear.

"That’s the Divine Bamboo Spear! Sect Master Wang is also going to gamble his Divine-grade treasure!"

"Hey! Let me join! I also want my disciples to participate in this fun!" Another Sect Master suddenly said.

"What are you talking about, Sect Master Chang! How are we going to split the Dragon Slaying Saber if you join?"

"We can worry about the share later!" Sect Master Chang laughed.

Long Yijun laughed inwardly when he saw these Sect Masters acting so confident that they would win.

If clearing all 100 floors of the Carp Leaping Over Dragon’s Gate Tower was so simple, he wouldn’t dare to gamble with the Dragon Slaying Saber!

’Hahaha! These fucking idiots! If the Founder who was widely known as the number one genius in his era couldn’t clear the tower, what makes these idiots think their disciple can?!’ Long Yijun tried his best to not burst out laughing, as this was an incredible chance for him to earn two Divine-grade treasures at once!

"Since it’s like this, I also want in!" Another person there suddenly stepped forward.

"Me too!"

"Fuck it! Since you’re all going in, I’ll also put my foot forward!"

In just a few minutes, all of the guests there have decided to send their disciple to the Dragon Essence Temple to challenge the Carp Leaping Over Dragon’s Gate Tower.

Meanwhile, the sect elders from the Dragon Essence Temple looked at each other with disbelief in their gaze. Are they really going to earn this much treasure from this event? Perhaps this event is actually a blessing in disguise!

"What about it, Sect Master Long? Are you willing to let our disciples challenge the Carp Leaping Over Dragon’s Gate Tower? If you win this bet, you’ll get to obtain many Divine-grade treasures and other priceless artifacts! If you lose, you’ll only be losing one Divine-grade treasure!"

"How do I know that you’ll keep your words if I actually win? I want a blood oath from everyone participating in this!" Long Yijun suddenly exclaimed.

"What? You want our blood oath?" The other Sect Masters there looked at each other with a surprised expression on their face.

"If you can’t do it then you can forget about participating in the event," Long Yijun spoke with a firm look on his face, causing the others to frown.
