Chapter 1667 Promise
"Calculate?"
Xu Yi stared at Jiuhuang Dao playfully, "Listening to Lord Jiuhuang's meaning, it seems that he is unwilling to give up and has other intentions."
Jiuhuang sneered and said, "You know exactly what is going on, Master Long. I have long heard that you love the dramas of the human race, but I didn't expect that your acting skills are also so superb."
At this point, Jiuhuang's thoughts gradually coincided with Tu Min's.
He also determined that Master Long was behind this scene.
This topic must have been thought up by Long Jingxiu a long time ago, and Xu Yi's so-called poem was naturally prepared early.
Otherwise, how could anyone in the world be so talented and write such a shocking poem in such a short period of time.
After Jiuhuang questioned him, Long Jingxiu showed no response and his beautiful eyes were out of focus.
Xu Yi said loudly, "It turns out that Master Jiuhuang was planning to start a verbal lawsuit again, but unfortunately I lost interest. However, Master Jiuhuang finally gave up. Just admit defeat."
Jiuhuang snorted coldly and stopped answering, secretly hating that he had calculated everything but failed to calculate that Long Jingxiu would do such a cruel thing.
Tu Min laughed loudly and clapped his hands lightly, "I didn't expect, I really didn't expect that there would be talents like you in my Wuwei Mansion. Ping Ding, with talents like you, why didn't you report it earlier? The crime of oversight will be forgotten for now. Next. But since such an outstanding person is buried in my Wuwei Demon Mansion, it will really be my fault as the master of the palace, haha..."
If Xu Yi only caused such a situation out of righteous indignation, he could still endure it.
The scene in front of him made it clear that Xu Yi and Long Jingxiu were colluding with each other and had planned it for a long time. In Xu's eyes, there was no intention of killing him, the master of the palace.
However, no matter what Xu thought, he was actually a legitimate Shangguan named Xu. It would not be easy to mess with him.
Even if Xu clings to Long Jingxiu's thigh, as long as he kills someone and doesn't let go, he can kill him in Wuwei Mansion.
After all, if the Monster Clan's "Law of Peace" is really carried out, it will be as majestic as the sky.
Xu Yi smiled slightly, passed Tu Min, and said to Jiuhuang, "Since Master Jiuhuang has lost, you should remember that Master Jiuhuang made a promise to me before the bet."
As if Jiuhuang was struck by lightning, he has completely forgotten the matter.
At that time, he thought Xu Yi was just bluffing. In order to get rid of Xu Yi's endless verbal entanglement, and thinking that there was no way he would lose, he hastily agreed to the promise without even studying the specifics of that promise.
Now, on the other hand, if Xu Yi really asked him to commit suicide, what would he do?
Could it be that, in full view of everyone, he, the dignified master of the Seven-Star Demon Mansion, was going to go back on his word?
Tu Min's eyebrows twitched and he sneered, "Lost? What nonsense are you boasting about? When did you say that a poem will determine the outcome of this competition?"
Only Tu Min realized that the conditions Xu Yi wanted to raise were probably not to do anything to Jiuhuang, but to escape from the control of his mighty demon mansion.
Because if you think about it from his perspective, Jiuhuang has no impact on Xu Yi's interests at all, and it is in Xu Yi's best interest to use Jiuhuang to escape from the control of his master, Tu Da Palace.
This was something Tu Min couldn't allow.
And he also couldn't refuse Jiuhuang.
The reason is very simple. Once Xu Yi asks Jiuhuang to help him choose to escape from the Wuwei Demon Mansion or commit suicide, Jiuhuang will definitely choose the former without hesitation.
At that time, Tu Min would not be able to refuse Jiuhuang, otherwise he would have forced Jiuhuang to death.
In fact, Tu Min didn't care whether Jiuhuang died or not, but he couldn't bear the reputation of forcing Jiuhuang to death. After all, Fengjiu was still standing by.
The only way is to drag out the so-called competition.
Although this method seems a bit shabby and loses dignity.
But now that the matter has come to this, there is no time to worry about that much.
Just as Tu Min finished speaking, Jiuhuang hurriedly said, "That's right. I only talked about the competition just now, and I gave up. How could I have said that I lost this competition?"
Even though he was in a hurry, he couldn't help but feel a fever on his face when he said these words.
After all, he is the head of a dignified house. How has he ever been forced to be so verbally dishonest?
But he was in the middle of the game, unlike Tu Min who was on the outside. He saw through Xu Yi's purpose and thought Xu Yi was going to force him to death with this so-called promise.
In this case, if he can use his words to argue and save his life, he is absolutely willing to do so.
What's more, in his opinion, Xu Yi was basically a puppet in Long Jingxiu's hands.
As long as Long Jingxiu is not allowed to continue asking questions and cut off the connection between the two, he, the majestic Lord Jiuhuang, will definitely win.
"Sure enough, sure enough..."
Xu Yi shouted in his heart as expected.
Everything that happened before him confirmed a guess in his mind.
Even the simple and strong demon clan, who have practiced to the level of Tu Min and Jiuhuang, have long been self-taught and have a taste of cunning.
He didn't take it seriously. Jiuhuang and Tu Min's reactions were what he had expected.
Otherwise, with the size of his city and the countless gambling battles he has experienced, how could he have left such a flaw for Jiuhuang to exploit.
"The dignified Lord Jiuhuang, the master of the Seven-Star Demon Palace, uses such means to escape failure. It's really eye-opening for me."
Xu Yi said loudly.
Jiuhuang's face jumped wildly, and he said in a cold voice, "You and Master Long have done a good job, who can't understand, do you need some explanation? If someone else asks the question, if I lose to you, then..."
"Brother Ninth, why do you need to get angry with this kid?"
Fengjiu stopped immediately.
After all, she had a relationship with Long Jingxiu, and Feng Jiu knew Long Jingxiu's character well. This woman was bohemian, lively, yet arty, and concerned about face. She didn't seem to be in cahoots with Xu Yi to concoct this incident. The place was lively.
But he absolutely didn't believe that Xu Yi had the ability to write such a shocking poem on his own.
But no matter what, before he figured out the truth, he thought it was unwise for Jiuhuang to boast so much based on his whim.
"Change someone to give the question? As far as I know, Mr. Long was also chosen by Mr. Jiuhuang to set the question. Isn't it too unfair to Xu to change it now? Since it is a competition, it doesn't make sense. Everything is up to you, Master Jiuhuang."
After Xu Yi said that, he couldn't help but move a few steps and change his position.
He really couldn't stand Long Jingxiu's burning gaze.
"You really cheated. In that case, this competition is over."
Xu Yi's reaction was as expected by Jiuhuang, and directly confirmed his self-righteous guess.
Xu Yi said, "It's such a far-fetched reason. If Lord Jiuhuang doesn't dare to compete, just say so and just admit defeat."
"you!"
Jiuhuang was furious, but there was nothing he could do.
Feng Jiu said coldly, "I think what Brother Jiuhuang said is reasonable. Since Mr. Long has already proposed the question, someone else should do it. Do you think that Huang is not qualified to propose the question?"
Xu Yi said, "I was shocked to hear that Young Master Fengjiu didn't even know Senior Yujizi's "Autumn River Snow Night" some time ago. We were talking about poetry and lyrics, but I don't know how Young Master Fengjiu got the confidence to get involved."
To put it bluntly, this sentence is to ask Young Master Fengjiu, what does it have to do with you to discuss some literary issues among us intellectuals?
