The smaller factions that were already preparing to leave immediately understood Chen Fan's intentions.
If you want me to accept your bet, you can.
Pay double.
This immediately gave the various small factions a headache.
Small factions rarely had so many treasures.
However, to avoid the retribution of this killing star, all factions gritted their teeth and came forward to apologize, emptying their coffers to make Chen Fan accept.
In the end, almost all the small factions paid double the bet.
As for those who didn't pay, they were indeed too poor.
Chen Fan didn't make things too difficult for them.
Small factions, surviving in the cracks, needed only to pay some price.
Finally, only four factions remained who had not paid their bets.
The Illuminati had already left and did not see this scene at all.
"Give it to him."
Tian Ku Lou ordered.
The crystal skull was handed over to Chen Fan, along with an iron shard emanating an ancient aura.
This fragment was of indeterminate age, but it was covered in the aura of time.
"Brother Chen, let's spar when we have the chance." Tian Ku Lou transmitted as he left.
The first Dark Bishop Karl also handed over the demonic blade, which excited Old Mo.
As for paying double, sorry, the Church of Darkness did not.
Chen Fan said nothing, only glancing at the other party a few more times.
Karl didn't mind and directly led his people down the mountain.
Aside from the already departed Illuminati, only the Angelic Holy See remained.
"Whoosh."
The Enlightenment Stone, radiating Dao charm, flew over.
Chen Fan caught it, waved at the red-robed Archbishop, and turned to leave.
...
No one dared to block his way.
Chen Fan had become the biggest winner of this grand assembly.
He not only won all the bets but also received double.
Of course, excluding the Illuminati.
He went down the mountain and got his car.
The convoy immediately turned back, heading towards Wenlan City.
In the largest off-road vehicle at the front, Chen Fan sat in the back, eyes closed, resting.
Lan Kuang was driving, with Old Mo in the passenger seat.
Old Mo kept looking in the rearview mirror, constantly monitoring Chen Fan's movements.
"Why isn't he awake yet?" Old Mo was anxious.
That demonic blade was now in Chen Fan's ring, but he dared not ask for it.
Lan Kuang occasionally glanced at Old Mo, and the latter's anxious look made him want to laugh.
He wanted to laugh but couldn't.
He couldn't disturb the senior's rest.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Fan finally opened his eyes. Da Feng Novel Network
He was awake, but Old Mo still didn't dare to ask for it.
He scratched his ears and cheeks in frustration.
"Alright."
Chen Fan had long sensed Old Mo's eagerness.
It was good that he had managed to hold back until now.
The demonic blade flew out of the ring and floated automatically: "I can give you the demonic blade, but what will you give me in return?"
There were never any good things that fell from the sky.
The demonic blade was Chen Fan's spoils of war, and Old Mo had not yet earned his trust.
Even if it was perfectly suited for Old Mo, he couldn't just give it away.
After all, it was a true treasure blade.
"Uh..."
Old Mo was stunned for a moment, feeling a bit helpless: "I don't know what I can give. How about you name it?"
"I name it?"
This stumped him.
Old Mo still owed him three favors and was too poor to make ends meet.
"Forget it, I'll give it to you."
He couldn't use it anyway, so it was better to increase Old Mo's combat power: "Tell me when you think of something. You are too weak now and are incapable of helping me with anything."
Old Mo: "..."
It was so humiliating.
With the demonic blade in hand, the powerful demonic energy was like a weapon tailor-made for Old Mo.
Humiliation was long forgotten.
Chen Fan took out the crystal-clear skull again and said to Lan Kuang, "This skull likely belonged to a true Supreme in its lifetime. Lan Kuang, I'll give you an opportunity. Are you willing to merge this skull into your body?"
"Senior..."
Lan Kuang was very tempted.
At the same time, he heard that Chen Fan had more to say.
"It's like this."
Chen Fan explained, "If you merge with this skull, the highest limit of your cultivation path will be that of a Supreme. You will not be able to reach the end of the cultivation path. Consider it yourself."
"I won't consider it. I am willing to merge."
"..."
Lan Kuang's decisiveness surprised Chen Fan.
"Senior, are you thinking that by giving up the future, I am focusing on the trivial over the essential?" Lan Kuang saw the surprise in Chen Fan's eyes.
Chen Fan nodded: "If it were me, I wouldn't choose to merge."
"That is because Senior possesses the talent to govern the heavens and the earth."
Speaking of Chen Fan, Lan Kuang was very envious: "Senior's future is not something a Supreme can restrict. But what about me? Although I, Lan Kuang, consider myself extraordinary, I am just an ordinary person."
"Let alone a Supreme, even if I could become a god, I would merge without hesitation."
"Senior, your realm is high, your talent is high, so you naturally see further. I am just an ordinary person. If I don't merge this skull, perhaps the highest achievement in my life will stop at the god level."
"The opportunity to step into the Supreme realm is something I wouldn't even dare to imagine."
Lan Kuang's words made Chen Fan realize.
Yes, he had forgotten that this was a world where ordinary people were the mainstream.
Talented cultivators were rare, perhaps not even one in a million.
Alright, he had overthought it.
"Find a place, and I will help you merge the skull." After saying that, Chen Fan closed his eyes again.
At this moment, he was holding the iron shard given by the Skull Society.
Rather than saying it was an iron shard, it was more like a fragment of some weapon.
Chen Fan didn't even touch the Enlightenment Stone, but instead immediately examined this iron shard.
The moment he received the iron shard, he felt its unusual nature.
Injecting energy from within his body had no effect.
However, when the power of the Tian Cong Yun Sword inadvertently touched the iron shard, the shard suddenly showed signs of movement.
