"This brat, I didn't expect him to be so eloquent. He even got me excited while he was talking."

Amidst the thunderous cheers of the crowd, an old man wiped away tears from the corners of his eyes and said softly.

This old man was none other than the Taoist Qinghe.

Although he had read the speech beforehand, he was still moved by Xingchen Daoren at this moment.

He also understood that they had succeeded; their plan had finally succeeded.

Every decision Shen Rugo made was absolutely correct.

Shen Rugo was secretly delighted. At this crucial moment, Xingchen Daoren, who bore a heavy responsibility, truly lived up to her expectations, delivering a gambling game as if it were a national war, so sacred and so inspiring.

Shen Rugo couldn't help but think more highly of Xingchen Daoren; he was a man capable of shouldering heavy responsibilities and had a promising future.

"Place your bets! Everyone come quick, we have betting odds here!"

"We have some too, everyone take your time, everyone has a chance!"

"Don't worry, our sect leader said that everyone has one hour to place their bets. As long as you all have enough spirit stones prepared, it will be fine!"

"Who we choose, is that even a question?"

"That Shen Rugo is indeed exceptionally talented, it's just a pity she's only at the second level of Qi Refining. If she were at the fourth or even third level of Qi Refining, I'd bet I'd win!"

"Even if I admire that little girl, my own spirit stones are ultimately more important!"

As Xingchen Daoren finished his speech, the mountainside and surrounding areas quickly became noisy, with crowds rushing to various betting stations to place bets.

The Star Palace had made preparations in advance, setting up more than two hundred betting platforms.

Xingchen Daoist watched the crowd surge towards the betting pool, overjoyed. He glanced smugly at Shen Rugo beside him, then stomped hard on the bag of spirit stones under his feet.

This girl is truly a lucky star of the Star Palace; she's incredibly good at making money.

Putting everything else aside, the 580,000 low-grade spirit stones lying at his feet made him almost unable to walk.

"That old bastard stepped on my spirit stones again; he's definitely up to no good."

Shen Rugo became very anxious upon seeing Xingchen Daoren's subtle actions.

However, she couldn't collect all those spirit stones at once.

Just as she was getting anxious, an old face, as beautiful as a blooming chrysanthemum, appeared before her.

"Hehe, Ruge, you are such an outstanding child. I am so happy that our Star Palace has such an excellent disciple as you."

"But it's too unsafe to pile up all these spirit stones you've won here. Why don't you give them to me, and I'll keep them safe for you, so they won't be stolen by anyone with bad intentions."

While everyone was making a ruckus and placing bets, Daoist Xingchen set his sights on Shen Rugo's spirit stones.

'Sure enough, this old guy is after my spirit stones.'

"If I give him so many spirit stones, will he really return every single piece of land to me?"

'joke!

Trying to play the wolf in sheep's clothing in front of me? Dream on.

Shen Rugo sneered inwardly, but then her eyes darted around and she smiled, "Sect Leader Uncle, I know you're a very good person, and you have the best relationship with Uncle Qinghe. Of course I believe in your character."

I entrust these spirit stones to you with complete peace of mind.

However, there is a difficulty in this..."

Shen Rugo suddenly stopped speaking at this point.

"What's wrong? Tell me, my good child, and I'll definitely help you solve it!"

Master Xingchen was overjoyed and quickly said...

Once these spirit stones are in his hands, he can decide how to use them.

Chen Tianba has swindled countless spirit stones from him in this way.

Who told him to be poor!

Besides, by swindling Shen Rugo out of these spirit stones, he can then reinvest them in Shen Rugo and make a fortune.

"The difficulty is, as you can see from the sect leader, I don't have any other skills, all I know is how to make money. I don't know how many more spirit stones I'll have to earn in the future."

"Sect Leader, you can't always stay by my side to collect spirit stones for me. Why don't you just give me a storage bag? That way, it won't bother you, and it'll be convenient for me too."

Shen Rugo said with a smile, her face full of flattery.

"what?"

Xingchen Daoist was taken aback.

This little thing actually outmaneuvered him.

But he was indeed poor, with only a storage bag and a Qiankun ring, both of which were full to the brim, and he absolutely could not give them to this little thing.

Given this little thing's nature, once it's given to her, it's like throwing a meat bun to a dog—gone and never to return.

"What do you mean, you old bastard? You're trying to swindle my junior sister's spirit stones again!"

With your character, get out of here!

Get out, get out!

Suddenly a voice rang out, pushing Xingchen Daoist away from Shen Rugo.

It was none other than Chen Tianba, dressed in all black.

Before he could finish speaking, he took out a small, palm-sized, golden embroidered bag and handed it to Shen Rugo.

"You bastard, you don't even give your master any face! Do you know that this is betraying your master and ancestors? I'm extending your confinement for another ten days!"

Xingchen Daoist was immediately enraged and cursed in a deep voice.

He ruined his own plans. If there weren't so many people around and he wasn't afraid of being laughed at, he would have already started cursing at Chen Tianba.

"Alright, old man, we'll settle our score later. Don't worry about your junior sister's affairs, just go do what you need to do!"

Chen Tianba, however, said with a disdainful expression.

Shen Rugo was completely dumbfounded. Her fourth senior brother was so powerful that he even dared to curse back at the sect leader.

She took the bag from Chen Tianba, momentarily stunned.

"Junior sister, what are you looking at? Quickly put these spirit stones into the bag, lest someone steal them."

Chen Tianba patted Shen Rugo's head and said gently.

"Well, thank you so much, Fourth Senior Brother!"

Shen Rugo was overjoyed; this was indeed the legendary storage bag of the cultivation world.

It looks small, but it has a lot of surprises inside and can hold a lot of things.

She hurriedly opened the bag, picked up a bag of spirit stones, but hesitated for a moment.

"Just throw it in!"

Chen Tian is domineering.

"Is this okay?"

Shen Rugo actually threw it over, and the spirit stone bag shrank instantly at the opening of the storage bag, becoming as small as a soybean, and flew into the storage bag.

"Haha, that's great, thank you Fourth Senior Brother!"

Shen Rugo was even happier, throwing one spirit stone bag after another into her storage bag.

The dozens of spirit stone bags disappeared quickly.

During this process, two pairs of eyes were fixed on Shen Rugo's movements, feeling waves of heartache.

One of them was Xingchen Daoren on the stage, who kept staring at the bags, hoping that Shen Rugo would drop one so he could pick it up.

The other one is Zhang Zhihao, who is not far away. Those were all his spirit stones, but now they all belong to Shen Rugo.

Even if his son could defeat Shen Rugo, he would only win back the glazed dress worth 200,000 spirit stones. In the end, he would still lose nearly 400,000 low-grade spirit stones, which was a huge loss.

Even if he were rich, these hundreds of thousands of low-grade spirit stones still caused him a huge financial loss, reducing his assets by a third.

"Sect Leader Uncle, why haven't you left yet?"

After Shen Rugo finished tidying up, she turned around and was greatly surprised.

Chen Tianba rushed around for a long time, but Xingchen Daoist hadn't left and was still watching her from behind.

"I like you, kid, so I don't want to leave!"

Xingchen Daoist forced a smile through his facial muscles.

"Thank you so much, Sect Leader Uncle. Just for those words, I really want to thank you properly. Here are these two low-grade spirit stones as a token of my gratitude!"

As Shen Rugo spoke, she took out two low-grade spirit stones and handed them to Daoist Xingchen.

'This little thing, I looked at it for ages and all it gave me were two low-grade spirit stones! I'm so angry!'

The Star Daoist's face turned ugly, and he turned and left.

Shen Rugo thought that as the sect leader, Xingchen Daoren would not want these two low-grade spirit stones.

To his surprise, his hand suddenly went empty as the two low-grade spirit stones flew into the Star Daoist's hand.

"He really accepted it?"

Shen Rugo's eyes widened immediately.
