Looking at the massive talisman falling from the sky, remembering his actions at this moment, Su Chengyu suddenly thought of a TV drama he had seen.

The main character in it had a famous line: "I bet there aren't any bullets in your gun."

The situation he faced now was quite similar.

If there was any difference, it was that Xu Zijing's gun definitely had bullets.

Su Chengyu was gambling that Xu Zijing actually didn't want to shoot.

Su Chengyu certainly understood Xu Zijing's standpoint.

Behind him was the Heavenly Son, and his master was Ji Yuguang.

From any perspective, there was no chance Xu Zijing would back down here, but Su Chengyu did it anyway.

Regarding Xu Zijing, Su Chengyu did not have a deep understanding, solely based on his knowledge of Xu Zijing, the risk of this gamble was akin to courting death.

Yet even so, Su Chengyu found a reason that made him try; often, one reason was enough for Su Chengyu.

Buzz!

The gigantic roar halted before Su Chengyu, wind pressure blew his hair back, the huge talisman stopped right in front of him without advancing a single step further.

Seeing this situation, Su Chengyu knew he had won the bet.

"Do you want to die?"

Advancing step by step but never sensing any intention of resistance, Xu Zijing finally stopped.

He didn't understand while looking at Su Chengyu, as he really couldn't comprehend why Su Chengyu was not resisting.

Su Chengyu smiled, made a gesture, and pointed in a direction.

Xu Zijing's eyes instantly dimmed, as he watched this action: "Just because of this, you dared to stake your life on a gamble."

Su Zengyu smiled and nodded.

Indeed, he did not know Xu Zijing well, and certainly not familiar, but someone was too familiar with Xu Zijing.

Lin An.

Lin An's reliance on Xu Zijing was akin to sibling or father.

Since the Xu Zijing before him was someone trusted by Lin An, then Su Chengyu was willing to gamble on him.

"You guessed correctly, I really don't want to kill you, I even hope you win. Only then, that girl Lin An would feel happy, but unfortunately..."

Xu Zijing shook his head helplessly.

Doing tasks for the Heavenly Son, it wasn't that easy, given Xu Zijing took on this task, he had no choice in his own stance.

Nevertheless, Su Chengyu shook his head when he saw this, then directly walked up to Xu Zijing until he stood right in front of him before stopping.

Under Xu Zijing's perplexed gaze, Su Chengyu extended his hand, revealing himself completely and unreservedly before Xu Zijing.

In an instant, countless streams of information flowed into Xu Zijing's body like a craze of rushing clouds, presenting in front of Xu Zijing was a magnificent and complete landscape, an entirely new world taking shape...

"What are they doing?"

Not just Xu Nanzhi, everyone present watching the odd actions of the two furrowed their brows.

Beside them, Feng Jie Yu spotted some clues, only her brows were tightly knitted, seemingly a bit nervous.

"Aunt Feng?"

Seeing Feng Jie Yu unmoving, Xu Nanzhi couldn't help but ask.

And in the next second, Feng Jie Yu suddenly relaxed her brows, looking at the Martial Arts Field, she let out a breath.

"It's over."

As Feng Jie Yu's words fell, Xu Zijing inside the Martial Arts Field also opened his eyes, looking at Su Chengyu with some disbelief.

Su Chengyu smiled, still waiting for him to slowly digest everything he saw.

Several seconds later, Xu Zijing seemed to come back to his senses and nodded: "I lost, thank you."

The first sentence was Xu Zijing acknowledging his defeat, while the latter seemed to be thanking Su Chengyu for resolving his current and inner conflicts, but the more important reason was tacitly understood by the two.

When Xu Zijing walked off the Martial Arts Stage, Le Niushang frowned at the peculiar scene: "Why did you get off? Is it over between you two already?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I lost."

"Are you kidding? Are you putting on a show for me? You just stopped suddenly, there was no sign of battle."

Xu Zijing smiled and said: "Your Majesty misunderstood, this Martial Arts display was always me attacking and him defending. In the first half, my momentum looked startling, but if Su Chengyu wanted, he could reverse the situation instantly. At that time, I had no chance of winning."

What Xu Zijing said was the truth, but what he didn't say was that this victory wasn't determined by Su Chengyu himself, but by the power of the Heaven-Mending Stone.

"In the latter half, we changed our battle strategy, no longer contesting external objects, but purely discussing Dao. Unfortunately, I still lost."

"Discussing Dao?"

Le Niushang was a bit bewildered, with her insight naturally unable to understand this level of dialogue.

Xu Zijing knew that Le Niushang was still somewhat skeptical but didn't mind, after all, the person he needed to report to was never Le Niushang.

Turning his head to the crowd present, Xu Zijing spoke: "Everyone, it was Zijing who disappointed you all. I will take the lead in jointly requesting a petition, then I hope everyone will cooperate."

The people below exchanged glances, even though they didn't express their dissatisfaction like Le Niushang, evidently, they were quite displeased with this encounter.

Knowing this, Xu Zijing continued: "Since I have already lost, I won't linger here further. I need to inform my master of today's results. Apologies."

After saying this, Xu Zijing turned and headed toward the direction of departure, without caring about the reactions of others.

After all, they may distrust him or suspect him of deliberately losing to Su Chengyu, but since this matter directly connected with Ji Yuguang.

Then the authenticity of victory or defeat itself isn't important, as long as Ji Yuguang accepts this victory, there's no room for them to question.

Feng Jie Yu watched the direction in which Xu Zijing left and whispered: "This guy is about to become an Earth Immortal."

"Huh?"

Xu Nanzhi was surprised to hear this, raising her head in disbelief to look at Feng Jie Yu.

"This guy's realm was already at the Peak of Hollow Void, breakthrough only needed a catalyst. And just now, Cheng Yu's unreserved discussion of Dao to him provided this guy a miracle. Unexpectedly, he didn't just see Cheng Yu's Road of Creation, he even clearly sensed every path Cheng Yu pursued. A risky move, luckily it was without danger."

Su Chengyu at this moment couldn't exert his power externally, to discuss Dao with Xu Zijing, he could only bring this outsider into his own body.

Not to mention the inherent risk of this action itself, for Xu Zijing as the person involved, at that time had even a slight thought, he could directly destroy Su Chengyu's Sea of Consciousness from within, which was also the reason for Feng Jie Yu's previous concern.

However, now it seemed Su Chengyu had won the gamble, and won thoroughly.

On the Martial Arts Stage, Su Chengyu, who had not walked down for a long time, had his mind already wandering far away.

This Seeking Dao, Xu Zijing's long-unbroken bottleneck had been opened, and for Su Chengyu, also a brand new Mana circuit began to appear within his body.
