Chapter 283: Chapter 284: 1 Billion Extravagant Bet (3rd Update) (Please Bookmark, Tip, and Recommend)

How much wealth could a Martial Artist at the First Realm possess?

Prudently saving, acquiring a mere ten million Nine Tripods Pills would be quite impressive, and to Master Mu, such an amount wouldn’t be considered significant.

"Is that so? Chu Fengmian’s wager is not much, merely a billion."

Chu Fengmian’s face bore a slight smile as he spoke softly.

A billion.

The moment these words were uttered, the expressions of countless people present changed drastically, and it was strangeness rather than shock that colored their faces.

"This kid must have lost his mind."

"It’s possible, anyone who dares to offend Young Master Zhao can’t possibly be thinking straight."

A billion Nine Tripods Pills, what kind of concept is that?

Forget a Martial Artist at the First Realm, even if a Saint came forth, they might not be able to produce that amount.

Now Chu Fengmian was actually suggesting to gamble a billion Nine Tripods Pills, these were words akin to those of a madman.

"How much?"

Master Mu paused, then asked again, thinking he had misheard.

"Didn’t Chu Fengmian just say? A billion Nine Tripods Pills."

Chu Fengmian scoffed and repeated himself.

"Boy, we don’t have the time to waste arguing with you. If you want to gamble, then gamble; if you’re not daring to bet, then scram!"

Zhao Duanqiao spoke out explicitly in a cold tone.

A bet of a billion Nine Tripods Pills? Was he fooling idiots here? Even him, being Zhao Wudi’s second son, didn’t possess a billion Nine Tripods Pills.

"Indeed, young man, I am willing to take your bet. If you’re unwilling, just give up directly and stop wasting our time here."

Master Mu also scoffed.

To him, Chu Fengmian’s actions were merely stalling for time, or even an act of displaying weakness, seemingly too afraid to bet.

"Do you all truly believe that Chu Fengmian can’t produce a billion Nine Tripods Pills?"

Chu Fengmian’s mouth curled up into a slight smile before he suddenly waved his hand, and a sky full of Nine Tripods Pills flew out, turning into a long river of medicinal pills.

They were densely packed with Nine Tripods Pills, instantly forming a long river, its exact quantity unclear to anyone.

But it must be said, there were certainly billions of them.

"What!"

The chatter amongst the onlookers ceased abruptly, their eyes wide as if they had seen a ghost.

Could Chu Fengmian actually bring out a billion Nine Tripods Pills?

He wasn’t just bluffing?

And now, Chu Fengmian was truly about to bet a billion Nine Tripods Pills with Master Mu?

That was a whole billion Nine Tripods Pills, not merely millions or tens of millions.

These people had never seen such a vast fortune in their lives; given a billion Nine Tripods Pills, they would willingly die for it.

Even Zhao Duanqiao and Master Mu, who had just mocked them, were now astounded.

Staring at the sky until Chu Fengmian retracted the river of pills, only then did the two slowly recover.

"What’s the matter, Master Mu can’t produce a billion Nine Tripods Pills?"

Chu Fengmian feigned surprise as he spoke.

"Wasn’t it Master Mu who said that Chu Fengmian could gamble whatever amount he wants? What’s going on, can’t manage to come up with a mere billion Nine Tripods Pills?"

Chu Fengmian spoke with utter ease, as though ten billion Nine Tripods Pills were no more than cabbages picked from the roadside to him.

"Master Mu, if you don’t have ten billion, what about nine billion, or eight billion?"

Chu Fengmian kept talking, each phrase striking Master Mu like a blow, making his face look as though he had swallowed dung.

He had just been brimming with confidence, wanting to beat Chu Fengmian, but he hadn’t expected Chu Fengmian to actually produce ten billion Nine Tripods Pills.

That was ten billion Nine Tripods Pills! Even the sum of all Master Mu’s wealth in his life was not that much.

"Who exactly is this kid, to be so bizarre!"

Master Mu looked at Chu Fengmian with intense jealousy. Ten billion Nine Tripods Pills would make anyone jealous of Chu Fengmian.

But once Master Mu, claiming to be an expert, had thrown his words out there, there was no taking them back.

If today, this treasure appraiser, dared not to bet, he would lose face not only in Nine Tripods ancient city but throughout the entire Qin Emperor’s realm.

Especially since Chu Fengmian was aggressively pushing him, backing him into a corner.

"I’ll take the bet! Do you think this old man would fear a greenhorn like you?"

Chu Fengmian looked at Master Mu and curled his lip.

"Stop the nonsense, show your ten billion Nine Tripods Pills first; otherwise, if you lose and run away, I will be the one losing big."

This statement once again internally wounded Master Mu.

Master Mu even wondered if he might die from the anger caused by Chu Fengmian today.

Ten billion Nine Tripods Pills, how could he offer that? Let alone ten billion, he couldn’t even produce a single billion Nine Tripods Pills now.

Who goes around carrying a huge load of Nine Tripods Pills every day?

"I don’t have that many Nine Tripods Pills," Master Mu said coldly, "but I have countless invaluable adventitious encounters to bet!"

Master Mu wasn’t truly afraid of betting against Chu Fengmian; being one of the top treasure appraisers in the Qin Emperor’s realm, there were hardly any who could surpass him.

Thus, he was willing to risk his entire fortune today to bet with Chu Fengmian.

"So much talking, just show what you have. You’ve all seen my Nine Tripods Pills. If you want to bet, show sufficient capital first."

Chu Fengmian watched Master Mu with great interest, laughing inwardly.

Master Mu was indeed a big fish, smoothly taking the bait. If Chu Fengmian won this bet, it would be like earning ten billion Nine Tripods Pills for free.

Ten billion Nine Tripods Pills, equivalent to the treasure wealth of the Emperor of Fertility.

"Fine, I’ll show!"

With a cold snort, Master Mu took out one item after another from his spatial ring, including materials, pills, Spiritual Medicine, and other rare natural treasures.

As a treasure appraiser, Master Mu had indeed acquired a great deal of these rare items, and the quantity he brought out now was astonishing.

"Tiger Strength Grass, not really something too precious; its effects are average, worth about one million Nine Tripods Pills."

"This is Black Xuan Jade, a piece like this, probably worth five million Nine Tripods Pills," and the Ice Lotus Pill, its grade is quite good, an antique item, valued at ten million Nine Tripods Pills, and this extra-terrestrial crystal, this is a good piece, although just the size of a finger, worth fifty million Nine Tripods Pills..."

Watching Master Mu take out each material and pill, Chu Fengmian continuously murmured the prices.

He seemed to be calculating their value.

He was betting ten billion Nine Tripods Pills; if Master Mu couldn’t produce items worth that much, what could he possibly use to bet with Chu Fengmian?

Seeing Chu Fengmian silently calculating, initially, Master Mu was extremely annoyed, but when he heard the mentioned figures, a glint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

The prices Chu Fengmian stated were exactly the values of these items; in other words, he recognized all these treasures and was even clear about their worth.

"Such a peculiar youngster, to know so much about rare items!"

Master Mu couldn’t help but marvel internally, yet he remained fully confident, possessing his own absolute trump card for victory.
