Chapter - 556 Waiting for the Big Fish to Take the Bai

With hands holding the Dragon Void, Liu Chunyi eagerly wanted Chen Xiaobei to take it. Bewildered, the crowd could not believe the scene that they were witnessing. The Dragon Void was the most prized treasure of the Liu Family and everyone knew that! It was actually easier for the crowd to believe that Liu Chunyi offered his private part to Chen Xiaobei rather than the sword.

Immediately, the way the crowd looked at Chen Xiaobei changed once again – it changed from admiration and idolatry to reverence and doubt! Fear crept out of nowhere and invaded the crowd. Everyone was trying to guess Chen Xiaobei's real identity but none of them had an answer for it. The only thing that they knew was that Chen Xiaobei was an alchemist that deserved Liu Chunyi's massive respect!

As expected, Chen Xiaobei's reputation soared again. Even Li Xiang was surprised by the turn of events, after transforming back to human form. At that moment, he was certain that working with Chen Xiaobei was definitely a wise move!

Everyone was witnessing that moment with their eyes wide open, as Chen Xiaobei took the sword with one hand. With a smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei said calmly, "Hehe… I did not expect you to willingly surrender most prized possession! I shall give you the pill to save your sister's life!"

Promptly, Chen Xiaobei reached into his pocket and tapped on his cellphone blindly. He retrieved his last Taiyi Life Enhancement Pill and handed it to Liu Chunyi.

"Thank you, Master Chen! Thank you so much…"

With an excited look, Liu Chunyi showed his gratitude to Chen Xiaobei.

"Alright, saving your sister's life should be your priority now! Go now."

Chen Xiaobei waved his hand. Seemingly, a corner of his mouth was raised to the extent that it looked like he was smiling.

"Let's go!"

With his hand waving at his followers, Liu Chunyi used his signature movement skill and left Bei Xuan Faction like a phantom. Immediately, nine elders followed closely behind him. The rest of the three hundred people took their leave as well. In the end, only Feng Qingyang, Li Xiang, and Li Yunlin remained at Bei Xuan Faction.

"Sifu, are you going to rest here or return home tonight?"

"There's no need to rush. I just threw a bait and I want to know who is going to take it."

All the Jianghu folk around Chen Xiaoei were extremely experienced in matters like these. Clearly, they had already figured out his motive.

"Earlier, I noticed that you tried to drive a wedge between the nine elders and Liu Chunyi. Are you trying to test the nine elders' loyalty towards the Liu Family?" Li Xiang asked.

"That's right."

"I don't think their loyalty can be shaken that easily… Even if your words managed to drive the nine elders apart from the Liu Family, I don't think they will show it that early!" Feng Qingyang said with a frown. Li Yunlin nodded to indicated that he agreed with Feng Qingyang's point of view.

"I'm not too sure about it as well. I just want to try my luck as I believe that I'm quite a lucky guy."

Having to have a great boost to his luck not too long ago, this was the best time for Chen Xiaobei to use his luck. Around ten minutes later, the Puzzle Flag in Feng Qingyang's hand vibrated lightly.

"Sifu, someone one is standing outside the Puzzle Formation. That should be the 'fish' that you are waiting for!" said Feng Qingyang, visibly stunned.

"Bring him here since you know he is the fish that I'm waiting for."

"This is just like magic!"

Li Xiang and Li Yunlin were surprised. They even started to doubt that Chen Xiaobei was a deity that possessed the ability to predict the future! Soon, Feng Qingyang came back with an old man in his sixties following behind him. With a sword in his hand, the old man looked really energetic and a dominant aura surrounded him.

Ding!

[Cultivation: Pinnacle phase of Qi refining stage. Health: 20,000. Combat power: 20,000 (+8000)]

A glance at his Netherspirit Battlescouter, Chen Xiaobei knew that this old man was an elite with Half Step True Nirvana Stage. He should be in the center of the elite hierarchy in the Liu Family.

"Master Chen! My name is Qi Yuehuo, an elder of Xuanjian Faction. I am here to ask for a favor. I hope you can help me…" In a polite manner, the elder strode towards Chen Xiaobei, bowing.

"You should know that my relationship with Xuanjian Faction is bad. Why should I help you?"

"Yes. I do know that. That is why I took the risk to return here! I'm willing to quit Xuanjian Faction if Master Chen can do me a favor. I will promise you that I will stay loyal to Bei Xuan Faction until the end of my life!"

"Hehe… Everyone can say something like this… What I need is a reason that can convince me to help you. I don't need you to promise me anything."

Feeling shocked, Qi Yuehuo now knew that even though the kid that stood in front of him was only in his twenties, his state of mind and wisdom were better than some of the experienced Jianghu elites! It was simply not possible to fool him!

"I'm willing to tell you a secret! Liu Chunyi would kill me if Master Chen goes and confronts him about it!"

"Secret? Okay. I'm all ears."

Chen Xiaobei nodded his head, knowing that he could use the secret as leverage as long as the secret was highly valuable and he would not need to worry that Qi Yuehuo might betray him.

"The Dragon Void Sword in your hand is just a replica!"

"What?!"

Upon listening to Qi Yuehuo's claim, Li Xiang, Li Yunlin, and Feng Qingyang were left in bewilderment. Immediately, all three of them took a closer look at the sword.

"Clouds are engraved on the sheath and dragons are engraved on the handle of the sword! Judging from the material that made this sword and the size of it, this sword definitely looked like the real deal to me! How is it possible that it is just a replicated item?"

Considering that Feng Qingyang was an experienced Jianghu elite, he knew quite a lot about the Dragon Void Sword. He just could not find anything wrong with this sword.

"Moreover, I don't think Liu Chunyi is bold enough to hand you a fake Dragon Void Sword in front of everyone, right?"

Li Yunlin expressed his doubt as well.

"A fake Dragon Void Sword in exchange for a valuable pill! Liu Family's face would be destroyed if this is real!"

Li Xiang nodded his head and said.

"Judging on how all of you view the Liu Family, that proves that all of you don't know Liu Family well enough! Liu Xiyuan and Liu Chunyi might look high and mighty on the surface, but the truth is they always have their dirty deeds done in the dark!"

Upon hearing that, Chen Xiaobei put on a smile on his face. Others might not know the true colors of Liu Chunyi but Chen Xiaobei had already known that he was a hypocrite the first time he saw him. He was not surprised that Liu Chunyi gave him a fake Dragon Void Sword in exchange for his pill. That was why Chen Xiaobei could remain calm while others were still left in shock.

"Master Chen, just pass me the sword if you don't believe in me! I can break it easily with my twenty thousand combat power!"

"That is not necessary. Actually, I knew there was something wrong when Liu Chunyi handed me the sword without hesitation. I'm willing to believe in you. Tell me, what can I do for you?"
