Asura Mad Emperor

Chapter 10 The Thing in the Bag



"Greetings, City Lord."

After Zhao Wujie and others entered the City Lord's Mansion, they were led by the mansion's guards to the reception hall. Upon seeing the Lord of Great Wilderness City, they bowed in respect.

Standing next to the City Lord was the head of the Zhao Family, Zhao Tianheng, who had arrived earlier and had been waiting in the mansion for some time.

Zhao Tianheng wasn't the least bit surprised that Qinchuan would come.

Even if the Qin Residence was unwilling to sign the bet contract, his Zhao Family would force them into compliance.

So in his view, the Qin Family had no room to refuse.

He wore a smile on his face, casting a casual glance at Qinchuan, thinking, so what if you, Qinchuan, are impressive in your own right?

Under the authority of my Zhao Family, don't you still have to submit obediently and act according to the rules set by my Zhao Family?

However, when Zhao Tianheng's gaze fell upon the clear palm imprint on Zhao Wujie's swollen cheek, his expression involuntarily stiffened. Immediately his eyes narrowed, and he asked in a deep voice, "Wu Ji, what happened to your face?"

"Who did this? Who dares to lay a hand on the Young Family Master of my Zhao Family?!"

Zhao Tianheng commanded with authority.

Although Zhao Wujie harbored deep resentment towards Qinchuan for slapping him, he knew that the urgent matter at hand was to have the heads of both the Zhao and Qin families sign the bet contract.

To finalize this matter thoroughly, lest Qinchuan suddenly came to his senses and regretted, which would only cause more trouble.

So for the time being, Zhao Wujie suppressed the incident of being slapped by Qinchuan, and said, "Father, let's set aside this matter for now. We should first bring out the bet contract and ask the City Lord to publicly certify it. It is of utmost importance to sign this contract in the presence of the City Lord."

Hearing this, Zhao Tianheng frowned, knowing that Zhao Wujie wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible.

However, looking at Qinchuan, he sneered inwardly.

Did Qinchuan really think he had room to back out?

But since his son had spoken, Zhao Tianheng didn't insist on pursuing the matter at this time, "Very well, since that is the case, then let's bring out the contract and sign it in front of the City Lord."

With that, Zhao Tianheng was the first to take out a contract identical to the one that Qinchuan was holding and handed it to the Lord of Great Wilderness City, "I ask the City Lord to make the public certification."

The Lord of Great Wilderness City was already well-informed about the feud between the Qin and Zhao families.

He didn't wish for the two families to engage in a large-scale bloody conflict, which would inevitably affect the order in Great Wilderness City.

Resolving their grudge through a relatively more peaceful bet seemed not too bad.

However, after glancing over the information on the bet contract, the Lord of Great Wilderness City couldn't help but frown.

This contract was extremely unfriendly towards the Qin Family, essentially an utterly predictable contest!

He frowned and looked at Qinchuan, saying in a serious tone, "Qinchuan, do you really intend to represent the Qin Residence and sign this contract with the Zhao Family?"

"Do you realize that once this contract is signed, it cannot be changed, and if your Qin Family loses to the Zhao Family, it will be too late to regret it then."

"Moreover, as the certifier of this bet, should the Qin Family lose and refuse to comply with the terms of the contract, the City Lord's Mansion will personally intervene and take coercive measures. You should consider this carefully."

The Lord of Great Wilderness City seemed to have some admiration for Qinchuan, but at this moment, he did not immediately stamp the official Great Seal, instead seriously advising Qinchuan.

Qinchuan was slightly surprised that the Lord of Great Wilderness City would consider the Qin Family's interests and take the time to warn him. He smiled and nodded, "Thank you for the reminder, City Lord. I am aware of the stakes involved. Please proceed with the public certification."

The Lord of Great Wilderness City fixed his gaze on Qinchuan, again advising solemnly, "Qinchuan, this is no trivial matter. You are staking the entire Qin Family on this bet, and it's not a time for rashness driven by pride."

He truly admired Qinchuan, and did not want him to personally bury the Qin Family, leading them into an abyss from which they would never recover—a generation's prodigy thus falling into decline.

"My mind is made up, please bear witness, City Lord."

Qinchuan said as he bowed with his hands clasped together.

"You..."

"Alas! Enough, since you will not heed advice and are determined to do this, then I, as the City Lord, will say no more. Just hope that you won't regret this when the time comes!"

The City Lord of Great Wilderness City shook his head upon seeing Qinchuan's refusal to listen to advice, sticking to his own stubborn views, and the admiration he had for Qinchuan turned into disappointment.

He had thought Qinchuan was a talent, but now it seemed that he ultimately submitted to the Zhao Family's overwhelming authority and had become a betrayer to his own family!

In his view, Qinchuan agreeing to sign such an unequal bet agreement with the Zhao Family was clearly submitting to their authority, handing over the Qin Family's assets on a silver platter!

This made him very disappointed in the young generation's number one prodigy of Great Wilderness City.

"If that is so, both of you sign and leave your marks."

The City Lord of Great Wilderness City was dispirited.

A junior he had once greatly admired turned out to be such a person, making him feel as if he had misjudged someone.

Did everyone think he submitted to the Zhao Family's authority, agreeing to sign such an unequal gambling agreement and willingly handing over the Qin Family's assets to the Zhao Family just to save his own skin?

Qinchuan simply smiled lightly at this.

Had he not stood at the peak of the Divine Path for nine lifetimes, witnessed countless events, seen the rise of many legends, and personally cultivated numerous epoch-shattering powerhouses and supreme forces?

Immortal Diviner Dynasty.

Ancient Immortal Dynasty.

Asura Hall, Netherworld Sect, Heavenly Demon Palace...

Enumerating the terrifying forces that once shone brightly over epochs within the nearly one million years of history.

Who knew that behind these peak forces that suppressed the ages, it was actually he who was pulling the strings?

In his last life, the super forces he had secretly established were like vast networks, spreading across thirty thousand minor worlds, three thousand major worlds!

Even half of the Divine Realm was nearly in his grasp!

Thus, was it difficult with his methods to cultivate a Qin Family that could, within three months, rival or even overwhelm a mere Zhao Family of this mundane world?

Shaking his head, Qinchuan signed his name on both gambling agreements, one held by Zhao Tianheng and the other in his own hand.

The people of the Zhao Family all watched Qinchuan, seeing him sign his name on both gambling agreements, their faces blossoming with smiles.

After Qinchuan signed his name, Zhao Family's head, Zhao Tianheng also swiftly signed both gambling agreements, then requested the City Lord of Great Wilderness City to also place the Great Seal on both agreements.

Thus,

This gambling agreement that was extremely unfavorable to the Qin Family was thoroughly finalized.

"Hahaha, excellent, excellent! With this agreement signed, the assets of the Qin Family are now within the grasp of our Zhao Family!"

"Thank you, City Lord, for witnessing this for us."

Seeing the City Lord place his seal, Zhao Tianheng couldn't help but burst into laughter, then carefully stored away his copy of the agreement as if it were a precious treasure.

In his eyes, this agreement was equivalent to all the assets of the Qin Family!
