1375 The Real Danger (1/2)
”Shit! Is my luck really that bad?!” Chen Xiaobei's heart skipped a beat.
First it was Osnur and then now suddenly, it was this Ding Xiadong?
Could it really have been his own bad luck?
No! It must be Ji Xiong's curse!
Chen Xiaobei decided that once this matter was taken care of, he needed to find a way to track down Ji Xiong.
It was simply too dangerous to have such a person skulking around, orchestrating menace in the dark.
”Why are you so quiet? Are you really that scared of me?” Ding Xiadong smiled. ”Don't worry. I can crush you like a bug. I'll make it quick, so you won't be in too much pain!”
”You want to kill me? I'm afraid that it's not going to be that easy!”
Chen Xiaobei took out his Verdant Emperor Divine Gourd.
At this point, he could only try the same method twice.
”Huh? What is that?”
Ding Xiadong did not attack immediately – he clearly was apprehensive about Chen Xiaobei's intentions.
After all, Chen Xiaobei was the person with a Divine Instrument. The gourd must be some pretty powerful weapon too since Chen Xiaobei decided to use it at this critical juncture. Ding Xiadong was an experienced, old Jianghu elite. He was sensible and prudent, and knew how to take the proper precautions.
”Ding Xiadong! I'm calling out to you. Are you brave enough to say yes?”
Chen Xiaobei pointed the mouth of the gourd to Ding Xiadong.
”What?!” Ding Xiadong stood stunned for a moment, and then he burst into laughter. ”Do you think I've never watched 'Journey to the West' before? Silver Horned King's Golden Purple Gourd! Oh, if you want to trick me, at least use a more convincing prop! Idiot! Hahaha!”
Chen Xiaobei was delighted by Ding Xiaodong's reaction.
Ding Xiadong's blatant disbelief of the Verdant Emperor Divine Gourd meant that he already had one foot in the crater that Chen Xiaobei had dug.
”If you think I'm bluffing, why don't you say yes then?” Chen Xiaobei needed to ruffle his feathers. ”Ding Xiadong! Don't you dare to say yes?”
”Why would I not say yes? I, Ding Xiadong, am here!”
”Oh, why didn't it work?” Chen Xiaobei pretended to fiddle with the gourd, deliberately looking confused and overwhelmed.
”Hahaha!” Ding Xiadong chortled. ”Chen Xiaobei! Are you a clown hired by monkeys for entertainment? Do you think I would fall for your idiotic ruse? Stop daydreaming, my boy!”
Chen Xiaobei, still appearing distraught, asked, ”Ding Xiadong! I'm calling out to you. Are you brave enough to say yes?”
”Of course! I am here!” Ding Xiadong played along, mocking Chen Xiaobei for being a fool.
”I'm calling out to you. Are you brave enough to say yes?” Chen Xiaobei continued to ask, taunting Ding Xiadong. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.
”Yes!”
”Ding Xiadong! Are you brave enough to say yes?”
”Of course! Just keep asking me. If I say no, you can write my surname 'Ding' upside down!” Ding Xiadong shouted back, his guard now lowered.
Chen Xiaobei saw his chance, and quickly changed up the question. ”Ding Xiadong! I want to keep you inside the Verdant Emperor Divine Gourd, are you brave enough to say yes?”
”Of course!” Ding Xiadong said loudly. He did not believe that the gourd in Chen Xiaobei's hand had the ability to store people.
But!
Just before he could finish his sentence, a sudden loud, thunderous voice broke him off!
