Having been given a second chance at life, I choose to join the Demonic Sect!

Chapter 83 Betting! A jade coffin as the bet!
With Cao Meng's assurance, the onlookers were relieved.

“Fellow Daoist Cao Meng, since we are all on the demonic path, I will naturally bet on you to lose. I will bet 10,000 low-grade spirit stones on Fellow Daoist Cao Meng to lose!”

A disciple from a demonic sect was the first to place a bet, betting ten thousand low-grade spirit stones.

He was just waiting for those ten thousand low-grade spirit stones to turn into one million low-grade spirit stones.

As someone took the lead in placing bets, others followed suit. Of course, these people were all disciples of top sects, so they weren't afraid that Cao Meng would renege on his bets!
"Senior sister, hurry up and collect the spirit stones to issue warrants to the fellow cultivators!"

Seeing that a group of innocent people had taken the bait, Cao Meng signaled to An Yingji to hurry up and get to work.

"Oh!"

An Yingji responded and began to work.

"Fellow Daoist Cao Meng, for the sake of the friendship between our sect and yours, we disciples of the Beast Soul Sect will not place any bets!"

Because the Beast Soul Sect and the Joyful Union Sect had a good relationship, the disciples of the Beast Soul Sect gave up placing their bets.

The unintentional actions of the Beast Soul Sect disciples allowed them to escape unscathed.

"Junior sister, you should also bet on Cao Meng to lose!"

"Then, we'll crush him!"

Seeing that everyone was betting on Cao Meng to lose, Miao Wang gestured for Hua Xian'er to place a bet as well.

I won't bet!

Although Hua Xian'er also thought Cao Meng would lose, she didn't want to win Cao Meng's spirit stones, and she didn't want to leave a bad impression on him.

"Junior sister, if you won't place a bet, I will!"

"Three thousand low-grade spirit stones are enough to win against his three hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

Seeing that Hua Xian'er was unwilling to place a bet, Miao Wang took out three thousand low-grade spirit stones that he had saved for a long time, intending to bet and win three hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones.

Once he had 300,000 low-grade spirit stones, he could buy cultivation supplies for Flower Fairy and make her happy.

When Hua Xian'er saw Miao Wang about to place a bet, she stopped him directly:

"Miao Wang, you're not allowed to place a bet either!"

She felt that she had already lost face because she couldn't stop the other party from competing with Cao Meng.

Now that the other party wants to bet on winning Cao Meng's spirit stones, she naturally cannot agree.

"why?"

Miao Wang looked puzzled. He knew that if he bet these three thousand low-grade spirit stones, he could turn them into three hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones!

"We cultivators should be devoted to the Dao; how can we become addicted to gambling?"

"Moreover, you have already wagered all your resources against Senior Brother Cao Meng, so those three thousand low-grade spirit stones are naturally included in the wager."

If you place a bet, you're breaking the agreement and making a fool of yourself!

Standing on the moral high ground, Hua Xian'er sternly rebuked Miao Wang, beating him mercilessly.

"Junior sister's criticism is quite right; it was all my fault for being confused for a moment!"

Despite being thoroughly scolded by Hua Xian'er, Miao Wang was still somewhat pleased.

My junior sister really cares about me. She scolded me because she was afraid that I would lose face and ruin my reputation.

!!!

The onlookers were all speechless at Miao Wang's appearance.

They wanted to know how Miao Wang, with his limited intelligence, had managed to survive so long in the cultivation world.
Mi Xinran, a cultivator from the Beast Soul Sect, could no longer stand it and cursed:

"Miao Wang, you're such an idiot!"

"Your junior sister isn't placing bets, do you really think it's because she's aloof?"
If she bets on you to win, Fellow Daoist Cao Meng will lose spirit stones. She can't bear to see Fellow Daoist Cao Meng lose spirit stones!
If she bets on Fellow Daoist Cao Meng to win, she will pay out spirit stones.

Therefore, her not placing a bet is the best choice, and the same applies to preventing you from placing a bet!

As the saying goes, those involved see things more clearly than bystanders. Mi Xinran, as a bystander, was not Miao Wang's sycophant, and thus immediately saw through Hua Xian'er's thoughts. In fact, many bystanders had also seen through Hua Xian'er's true intentions, but no one pointed it out.

"Don't you dare slander my junior sister!"

Miao Wang, a devoted follower of Boiling Sheep, immediately stepped forward to protect his master, determined not to allow anyone to defile his junior sister, Flower Fairy.

One of the cultivators who had bet on Cao Meng losing pointed at Mi Xinran and said:

"You shameless bastard from the Beast Soul Sect!"
You actually used this method to provoke Miao Wang, helping Cao Meng achieve victory!

Although many people saw through Hua Xian'er's intentions, why didn't they expose her?
Because they placed a bet that Miao Wang would win, they were afraid that revealing this would affect Miao Wang.

After An Yingji finished collecting the spirit stones and preparing the betting tickets, she discovered that no one had bet on Cao Meng to win. So she addressed Cao Meng:
"Junior brother, they don't support you, but I, your senior sister, do!"

"Senior sister, I bet you 100,000 low-grade spirit stones to defeat Miao Wang in one move!"

An Yingji had been pinned to the ground by Cao Meng before, so she knew Cao Meng's strength.

Miao Wang, at the fourth level of the Golden Core stage, had no chance of withstanding a single move from Cao Meng.

An Yingji decisively placed a bet of 100,000 low-grade spirit stones on herself. With a payout of 100 to 100 low-grade spirit stones, that's 10 million low-grade spirit stones!

The thought of suddenly becoming rich made An Yingji excited.

"Look how deep the bond is between those two senior and junior siblings! And look at this brother and sister!"

"Hahaha!"

After comparing Cao Meng and his fellow students with Miao Wang and his fellow students, onlookers started mocking Miao Wang again.

Seeing that no one had placed any bets, Cao Meng was about to start his fight with Miao Wang when a voice came from somewhere:

"I'll bet ten million low-grade spirit stones that you can defeat me in one move!"

The voice was enhanced with spiritual power, making it impossible to tell whether the speaker was male or female.

"???"

Cao Meng looked around but couldn't find anyone to speak. Just as he was wondering about this, a jade coffin appeared out of thin air.

"This jade coffin must be worth quite a few spirit stones, right?"

Cao Meng carefully examined the jade coffin. The jade coffin was colorful, indicating that the jade used was extraordinary. Moreover, it was engraved with many talismans and inscriptions.

Cao Meng felt that even with his millions of low-grade spirit stones, he might not be able to afford this jade coffin!
"I wonder if you are a senior from the Corpse Yin Sect, willing to wager ten million low-grade spirit stones?"

After Cao Meng's greed subsided, he came to his senses. Looking at the jade coffin in front of him, he roughly guessed that the other party was from the Corpse Yin Sect, and probably a high-ranking member.

The Corpse Yin Sect is also a top sect in the demonic path, but it has some connections with both the righteous and demonic top sects.

Because whether they are righteous cultivators or demonic cultivators, after killing and robbing, they can sell valuable corpses to the Corpse Yin Sect in exchange for resources.

Because the Corpse Yin Sect does a good job of protecting the confidentiality of its clients' information, it has always had a good reputation among both the righteous and demonic paths!
In his previous life, Cao Meng overheard Su Qingyue say that the Corpse Yin Sect had an extremely long history, longer than any of the top sects.

The Corpse Yin Sect's foundation is terrifying, far surpassing that of other top sects. Almost no top sect is willing to be an enemy of the Corpse Yin Sect!
"That's right, it's me!"

"I'll use this jade coffin as collateral for ten million low-grade spirit stones, betting that you'll defeat this ant at the fourth level of the Golden Core realm in one move!"

In response to Cao Meng's question, a voice came from the jade coffin.

"Senior, isn't this inappropriate?"

Cao Meng was reluctant to take the bet. Although the jade coffin was valuable, he felt it was better not to be greedy.

"My coffin is only worth ten million low-grade spirit stones. You've made a killing!"

"Since you've chosen to open the market and act as the dealer, you have to be able to afford to play the game!"

The voice emanating from the jade coffin left Cao Meng no room for refusal.

She had been secretly observing the situation, but now that she's shown herself, even if Cao Meng doesn't want to play anymore, she has no choice but to let him continue!

The Corpse Yin Sect has arrived, isn't that exciting?
