Chapter 708 This bet, I, Huangquan Hirazaka, accept!
[Detected player Qiao Yu killing the God-tier NPC Lü Guzheng, experience +810 million]
[Congratulations to player Qiao Yu for a successful level up, current experience value: 130 million/730 million, reward 1000 free attribute points.]
Listening to the system prompts, the smile on Qiao Yu's face became brighter.
That humanoid creature was naturally the Purgatory Corpse King he had sent out.
Having advanced to the Pseudo-God tier, the Purgatory Corpse King facing Lü Guzheng, who only had his divine consciousness remaining, was a one-sided slaughter.
At this time, the people of Huangquan Hirasaka still didn't know that the just-escaped Lü Guzheng had been secretly killed by Qiao Yu.
They were still immersed in shock and unable to extricate themselves.
A Demi-God tier one, actually defeated a Pseudo-God tier one, beheaded him, and forced his divine consciousness to flee. This was simply unbelievable.
Compared to Qiao Yu's combat power, they were even more afraid of Qiao Yu's terrifying calculation ability.
Several elders at the Pseudo-God tier one level put themselves in Lü Guzheng's position and wondered if they could have defended against that sudden, terrifying strike.
Thinking about it, cold sweat ran down their foreheads.
Because the answer was no!
If they were in Lü Guzheng's place, and believed they had already won, none of them could have defended against that strike. They would have all been beheaded.
Who could have imagined that a Demi-God tier one could suddenly unleash such a terrifying blow?
It was like telling the boxing champion Mike Tyson that an elementary school student could punch him and send him flying. Tyson would never believe it.
After the shock, they immediately remembered an extremely serious matter!
That was, if Lü Guzheng lost, wouldn't that mean the Huangquan Staff would be taken away by Qiao Yu?
How could Huangquan Hirasaka accept this?
The eyes of many elders fell on Rui Wei, wanting this Grand Elder to stand up and say something.
Rui Wei's face was very unsightly. She didn't expect the outcome of this battle to be like this. This young man was too terrifying!
In another ten years, once this young man also grew to the Pseudo-God tier, who else in this Ninth Universe could stop him?
"All done, Grandpa, let's go!"
Qiao Yu glanced at Rui Wei and the others, a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, and then pretended to be nonchalant as he pulled Bai Xinweng to leave.
"Wait!"
Rui Wei finally couldn't help but stop Qiao Yu.
"What's wrong? Grand Elder Rui Wei wouldn't want to go back on her word, would she?" Qiao Yu asked with a smile.
Rui Wei opened her mouth, her face turning a little red from embarrassment.
She took a deep breath and then forced herself to calm down.
"Qiao Yu, there's something I don't know if I should say..."
"Don't say it! Please don't say it. Goodbye, farewell!" Qiao Yu refused her outright.
Rui Wei was choked speechless, and then she simply threw caution to the wind and said firmly.
"You can't take away the Huangquan Staff!"
"Oh?! What, is the Huangquan Staff bet just a fart? We agreed that if I beat Lü Guzheng, I could take the Huangquan Staff. Could it be that Huangquan Hirasaka wants to go back on its word in front of everyone?" Qiao Yu said with a half-smile.
"No matter what you say, you can't take away the Huangquan Staff!"
Rui Wei simply tore off her mask.
"The Huangquan Staff is too important to my Huangquan Hirasaka. We must not let outsiders take it away. I can exchange it with you for other things, such as the Underworld Spring Yin Thunder Formation Plate! Or other things will also work!"
"Is that so?" Qiao Yu rubbed his chin and looked at Rui Wei. "Does that mean that if I'm not an outsider, I can take the Huangquan Staff?"
Rui Wei didn't know what she thought of, her face suddenly turned red, and then she said with a straight face.
"If you are willing to join my Huangquan Hirasaka and become my seventeenth gigolo, then you are indeed not an outsider."
"What nonsense are you talking about, you old woman?" Bai Xinweng couldn't sit still when he heard this, and immediately became furious. "You're old enough to be my grandson's grandmother, and you still want to take him as a gigolo? If you have something to say, come at me!"
Qiao Yu's expression became a little strange when he heard this.
Grandpa, are you sure that 'come at me' is what you mean?
Qiao Yu shook his head, then looked at Rui Wei and explained.
"Grand Elder, I think you misunderstood. What I meant by not being an outsider... is that I want to be the Lord of Huangquan Hirasaka!"
Silence.
Everyone present instantly fell silent.
Dead silence spread among everyone like a plague.
Qiao Yu's words couldn't be more arrogant. Even Bai Xinweng couldn't help but stare at Qiao Yu with wide eyes.
Then, a stone stirred up a thousand waves.
"Impudent! Just because you're given a little color, you want to open a dyeing workshop? You overestimating kid!"
"You're just a Demi-God tier one. An old man like me can kill you with a fart. You actually want to be the Lord of Huangquan Hirasaka? I think you've lost your mind!"
"Too arrogant! You don't think that being able to beat Lü Guzheng, that trash, is a big deal, do you? That trash's strength isn't even in the top twenty in Huangquan Hirasaka!"
The elders of Huangquan Hirasaka were filled with righteous indignation, and none of them could calm down.
Qiao Yu's words were too lawless. It was like a 985 university Ph.D. student running to Tencent and telling Tencent that he wanted to sit in Ma Huateng's position.
Undeniably, a 985 university Ph.D. is indeed awesome, but there is still some gap to become the boss of Tencent.
Even Rui Wei's face darkened, and she said in a cold voice.
"Qiao Yu, that joke of yours isn't funny at all."
"I'm not joking. I'm serious." Facing the indignant crowd, Qiao Yu was not flustered, and even had a smile on his face.
The atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point.
At this time, Qiao Yu suddenly spoke.
"Grand Elder, and all the elders of Huangquan Hirasaka, how about we make another bet?"
"Oh? What are we betting on?" Rui Wei's face was as cold as ice.
Qiao Yu turned a blind eye and directly raised three fingers.
"Three years."
"Give me three years, and in three years, I guarantee that I can have the combat power of the Pseudo-God tier peak. If I don't reach it, then I will sell myself to Huangquan Hirasaka and be a slave for life."
"If I succeed, then the long-vacant position of Lord of Huangquan Hirasaka will belong to me, how about it?"
Qiao Yu spoke, looking at everyone quietly, with a calm expression.
Rui Wei couldn't help but narrow her eyes. Qiao Yu's bet was not small. He was betting his future.
But according to all the probabilities in the history of the Ninth Universe, the fastest record from Demi-God tier one to Pseudo-God tier one was created by the Starry Sky Sword Saint of the Xuantian Sword Tomb.
The Starry Sky Sword Saint took a full six years to go from Demi-God tier one to Pseudo-God tier one.
On the other hand, Qiao Yu only had three years.
Even if he really succeeded in advancing to Pseudo-God tier one in three years, would he really be able to possess the combat power of the Pseudo-God tier peak?
You must know that the gap between each realm of the Pseudo-God tier is extremely large.
To use Pseudo-God tier one to rival the Pseudo-God tier peak, the difficulty is far greater than Demi-God tier one challenging Pseudo-God tier one.
Rui Wei just calculated in her heart, and she was sure that Qiao Yu's words were completely nonsense, just a rhetoric to take away the Huangquan Staff.
Rui Wei subconsciously wanted to refuse, but at this moment, from the depths of Huangquan Hirasaka, a very old and simple voice suddenly sounded.
That voice was extremely majestic, like a heavy muffled thunder ringing in everyone's ears.
"Huangquan Hirasaka accepts this bet!"
