Seeing Yang Lujia agreeing to the man’s request to have a bet, Cai Hong was delighted. Moreover, he wanted to test his power at the moment, especially now that he had improved his control of the rules of the gale. From the appearance of the man, it seemed like he did not belong to any power.
He belonged neither to the outside powers other than those he knew in the Autonomous Region nor to those in the Autonomous Region.
However, Yang Lujia, on the other hand, was certain that this man was on par with Cai Hong. Thus, he decided to let Cai Hong experience some stretching. Then, he decided to hide in the corner, even leading to the other party’s astonishment.
“Where did that young friend go, young friend?”
He was asking Cai Hong, who was also stunned by the sudden disappearance of Yang Lujia.
However, he felt very displeased for some reason when the other party called His Highness a “young friend,” which was very unsuitable for Yang Lujia’s prestige. Cai Hong only felt endless respect for Yang Lujia for no reason. As for what reason it was, it was simply because it was his instincts that were telling him to follow this young man and serve him with all of his loyalty.
However, this wasn’t the issue at the moment. The issue was with the man he was currently facing.
“Hey, don’t you dare His Highness like that!”
The man was a bit taken aback. If it was before, he would have disregarded Cai Hong’s remark about this “His Highness.”
He only felt like Cai Hong only wanted to find an excuse not to fight him. However, it was actually true. Moreover, it was that other young man who suddenly disappeared without even noticing any distortion in the space.
Normally, it would be Yang Lujia’s comprehension of the rules of space was simply above everyone else, including the Saint Emperors of this realm. Even in this higher realm, Yang Lujia could not find a match for his own strength.
“His Highness? That young friend who just disappeared?” The man revealed a surprised look, pretending he did not get the gist of what Cai Hong was implying. “Anyhow, I have here a treasure that no one else would have. However, since it was useless to me, I wanted to exchange it with all the treasures you acquired from the Void Ground.”
“Alright!” Cai Hong surprisingly agreed without hesitating. Of course, that was because he heard from Yang Lujia just at that moment that he needed not to worry about anything. He only wanted Cai Hong to get used to his own power, lest he fails to control it—ending up killing everyone when he’d explode due to surging emotions.
The man was elated after hearing Cai Hong’s response to his offer to make a bet. He then pulled a dark brown box from his storage ring. “This box contained the aura of the void. I coincidentally found this when I ventured into the Void Ground. It was extremely precious, and what was inside could be said to have the power to revive someone at the Saint King Level and below. You also don’t need to verify it if it was true as opening this box would be akin to watching the treasure’s effects.”
Yang Lujia’s eyes actually shone after hearing the man’s description. It was because he still remembered the old lady who sold barbecue to him—rather, it was her son that made him feel really guilty. Nonetheless, alas, it had already been a long time since that son of the old lady was killed by him—although not intentionally, he still felt he had wronged his mother.
Despite that, Yang Lujia still urged Cai Hong to accept the bet. After all, even if he was proficient with the rules of time and space, even with the rules of life, he could not be certain that he could still be able to revive the dead by using these rules. After all, the restrictions imposed by Da Shikong were making him unable to do so. Da Sishen’s restrictions were much weaker and Da Shikong’s multiplied by a hundred times.
It would still be of use to him if there came a time when he needed to use it to revive someone. Only, he did not immediately hear the man’s words. However, since they had already agreed to it and such an upcoming fight was only to make Cai Hong experience his own strength and fight someone on par with him, he waived his excitement and just proceeded to anticipate the battle.
After all, even though he was strong, he still did not witness a fight between Saint Emperors.
“What? Isn’t that Lord Tong He? Why is he here? Why did he suddenly say that he found that treasure he was holding from the Void Ground? How did he manage to enter that place?”
“Then, that would mean he was once a younger generation genius and someone who was native to the Third Region.”
GASP.
“Lord Tong He actually came from this remote area?!”
They knew who this Lord Tong He was. After Lord Tong He’s name resounded not only in the four regions but in the entire Da Shikong. He was ruthless to his opponents and what he always loved to do was find an opponent that was capable of suppressing him or an opponent he could call his heart out without restraint.
With that being said, Lord Tong He was also someone who loved to collect treasures. That was one of his habits, apart from his drive and wanting to fight other cultivators on the same level as him.
“I got this treasure three years ago. I personally entered the Void Ground. Moreover, I am only a hundred and three years old,” Lord Tong He said as he revealed a smile—extremely confident in his talent.
“This child is actually such a talent,” Yang Lujia said as he looked at Lord Tong He in a different light now.
“What? Lord Tong He is actually only a little bit older than a hundred years old? God! Then, wouldn’t that mean that his cultivation level would be higher than any younger generation ranked in the top 10 in the four regions?!”
“You’re absolutely correct. Besides, look at his appearance. Old men liked to maintain their old appearance in order to appear like experts—but he did not have that air on him!”
“Precisely!”
The crowd watching the upcoming fight boiled with excitement. It was not only because Lord Tong He was going to fight, but also because Lord Tong He was going to fight an extremely young youngster who dared to bet with Lord Tong He.
Moreover, that youngster did not even know that Lord Tong He was very specialized in the sword. “Look! It’s that legendary sword! The Heaven-Extinguishing Sword!”
The moment the large sword with a slight small hilt appeared before everyone’s eyes, they became even more excited.
HEH.
However, Cai Hong was not to be outdone either. He also pulled a sword from his own storage ring and faced the other party with a mocking smile on his face. “What a grand name for a sword. If that sword of yours is called the Heaven-Extinguishing Sword, then mine is the World-Wrecker Sword!”
“So, you’re also proficient in the sword. Very well, then. Let this one experience your sword techniques!”
HEH.
As Lord Tong He said those words, he disappeared from everyone’s sight almost instantly. Others also noticed that so did Cai Hong.

“Please grant me entry. I have something to report to His Majesty Ruler Chaos!” said a man with an ugly appearance from head to toe who appeared before the gates of the Chaos Hall. “Quickly open the doors. It is concerned with the Fate-Tracer Compass!”
“Yes, milord!”
It seemed like the one who requested such a command was someone of status in the tribe of chaotic beings.
When the two ugly guards, emitting black smoke from their bodies, opened the door, they were shocked to see that His Majesty Ruler Chaos was teary-eyed and was looking at the man who was about to report something to him regarding the Fate-Tracer Compass.
The man, who had an excellent background in the Chaos Tribe, was so shocked that he knelt on the ground without hesitation. Especially when His Majesty Ruler Chaos was also kneeling on the ground.
“Tell me exactly what happened! Be quick! I am not that patient when it comes to finding my master!” As His Majesty Ruler Chaos said these words, his body and mouth were actually trembling nonstop, as though he was exhilarated to the highest degree.
“Your Majesty, it’s not that this subordinate is incompetent, but the Fate-Tracer Compass, a treasure capable of seeing through someone’s location and fate, broke the moment we tried to do what you instructed us!” The man in front of the Chaos Tribe continued to kneel with clasped hands. The expression on his face was of helplessness.
“What? The Fate-Tracer Compass actually broke? But it was the only thing that could find my master!” His Majesty Ruler Chaos abruptly revealed a dejected look as he went back inside his Chaos Hall.
