Ouchi Taming the Cat, starting with the Ten Tiger Forms!

Chapter 779 Bet
"The cold wave is extremely dangerous. Even if you have mastered the methods of the Heavenly Dao Realm, you may not be able to protect yourself."

"Don't be reckless!"

The hermits in the West Pavilion were so anxious that they did not forget to go and see Emperor Yongyuan, Nirubail and others.

They hope that others can also persuade Li Xuan to give up this dangerous idea.

But they found that except themselves, everyone else was indifferent.

"What do you mean?"

"Just the six of us going with you?"

The hermits in the West Pavilion were trembling in their hearts.

They looked at the indifferent expressions of others and thought that it was none of their business and they just ignored it.

Little did they know that their trust in Li Xuan had already exceeded the imagination of the hermits in Xige.

Even if they have to go through fire and water, as long as Li Xuan is there, it can be done.

"you……"

The hermits in the West Pavilion gradually became speechless and just looked at others, not knowing how to react.

Why does it seem like they are making a fuss out of nothing?
At this time, Li Xuan said calmly:

"If you don't want to go, hand over the Yin-Yang technique."

"I gave you a choice."

"The Holy Fire Cult has surrendered, and so has the Great Desert."

"Why can't you, the West Pavilion, hand it over?"

"Is it because you don't trust me, or..."

Li Xuan's eyes turned dangerous as he looked at the hermits in the West Pavilion.

Emperor Yongyuan and Nirubail also looked unhappy.

They all had reasons to assist Li Xuan.

Emperor Yongyuan naturally wanted to see Li Xuan become more and more powerful.

Like all disciples of the Holy Fire Cult, Nirubel is willing to pay any price to implement the will of the Holy Fire.

Li Xuan will only give the hermits of Xige two choices.

Either go into the cold wave with him, or hand over the Yin-Yang technique and let him practice it on his own.

There is no third way.

Now the hermit of Xige neither wants to hand over his skills nor does he want to enter the cold wave, and Li Xuan’s patience is almost at its limit.

The hermits of the West Pavilion now want to go back on what they had agreed upon before the Sandbag Valley experiment.

Is Li Xuan just in a good mood?

"This……"

Seeing Li Xuan's tough attitude, the hermits in the West Pavilion were speechless for a moment.

Only they themselves know why they are so conflicted.

Xige's Heavenly Dao Realm method is the power of runes based on the Lunas Sutra.

But in fact, not all of these runes are mastered by the six Xige hermits themselves.

Among them, an extremely important core part is inherited.

It is an external force.

If they handed over the inheritance to Li Xuan, they would lose these important core runes, which would greatly reduce the value of their Heavenly Dao Realm methods, or even make them unable to use them at all.

This is the fundamental reason why the hermits of Xige have been delaying and are unwilling to hand over the Yin-Yang skills of Xige to Li Xuan.

They have no relationship with Li Xuan, so how could they be willing to hand over their power?

The same situation occurred to all six hermits of Xige.

Therefore, even if it is not said explicitly, there is a tacit understanding in the hearts.

Li Xuan and others didn't know the key.

I just thought that the hermits in the West Pavilion were being too proud of what they had and that was why they were unwilling to hand over their Yin-Yang skills.

"God's will, we..."

"Please give us some more time to think about it."

The old hermit from Xige pleaded.

Li Xuan looked at their unhappy expressions and couldn't help asking:

"What's the problem?"

The hermits in the West Pavilion did not answer.

These six guys were hesitant and dithering. Li Xuan was almost getting annoyed with talking to them.

Isn't it the same when others see it?

"Forget it, you guys take your time to think about it."

“But there are only these two ways!”

Li Xuan finally emphasized.

The hermits in the West Pavilion took their leave immediately as if they had been pardoned.

As soon as the hermits of the West Pavilion left, Emperor Yongyuan said:

"We have to keep an eye on them."

"Don't worry, leave it to us, the Holy Fire Sect."

Nirubel took on the task directly.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. The Ministry of Internal Affairs will also keep an eye on it."

Zhao Feng also expressed his opinion.

Emperor Yongyuan nodded, then turned to Li Xuan and said:
"Ah Xuan, when the time comes, make the decision. Hesitation is not a solution."

Li Xuan understood what Emperor Yongyuan meant.

But Li Xuan didn't want to use force unless it was absolutely necessary.

If a real fight breaks out, we have to kill them.

Xige also possesses the means of the Heavenly Dao Realm. If they escape, the chances of dispelling the cold wave will become even slimmer.

“I hope they can come to terms with it.”

Li Xuan said sincerely.

That night.

The hermits in the West Pavilion sat together, feeling depressed.

"Tell me everything."

They habitually communicated using runes.

"I can't give it to you. How can I let an outsider have the rune..."

"Not even a cat!"

"They won't let us go easily."

"Just like what the Fateful One said, either you enter the cold wave or you hand in your skills."

"Why not just give me the technique and not the core rune?"

“If he is truly a man of destiny, he will naturally be able to practice like Venerable Tiye.”

“But once they see the Lunas Scripture, the Chosen One will definitely know that we have the core rune that has been passed down.”

The hermits of the West Pavilion are all very clear that in addition to the Lunas Scripture, this inherited core rune is also an important part of the West Pavilion's heritage.

These core runes are not simply passed down and quoted, but have been nurtured by generations of Xige hermits, making them extremely powerful.

It is because the core rune is so precious that they are so conflicted right now.

Now that this thing has been handed over, there is no reason to take it back.

Although the Chosen One is also a cat, he seems to have greed as well.

If you put yourself in their shoes, even if you put yourself in their shoes, you will probably not be willing to give up such a good thing.

"This won't work, and that won't work either. Do we really have to fight our way out?"

"Does it really mean that those who are destined by heaven are vegetarians?"

"Don't forget, the Chosen One still has the help of Daxing and the Holy Fire Cult!"

The old hermit in Xige looked at his companions arguing and sighed helplessly.

But he quickly looked up and continued to read the content of the rune communication, as if he was expecting something.

"Hey, there has to be a limit to how much you can underestimate a cat!"

The sudden appearance of the rune font made the hermits of the West Pavilion hold their breath.

Li Xuan walked leisurely into the tent of the hermits of the West Pavilion, and glanced at the old man among them vaguely when he came in.

"I don't need the core rune, you can just give me the technique."

"Not yet, follow me into the cold wave."

"As for fighting your way out, forget it. I'm sure you won't be able to get out of this camp."

Li Xuan, who had peeked at Rune's chat content, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Only then did he understand why the hermits in the West Pavilion were so worried.

But after understanding the cause and effect, Li Xuan could understand them.

It is true that Xige’s inheritance is somewhat special. It can make the core runes stronger through the accumulation of time.

But Li Xuan was confident that he was gifted.

As long as Xige's Yin-Yang skills are practiced to the highest level of perfection, the help of these core runes will not be a problem.

Compared to the power of others, Li Xuan certainly believes in himself more.

Rather than letting the hermits of the West Pavilion go deep into the cold wave with him, Li Xuan would rather they hand over their skills.

Otherwise, in an environment like a cold wave, Li Xuan would have to be on guard against them, which would be too tiring.

Li Xuan was really considering going deeper into the cold wave.

He hopes that the companions he travels with are people he can trust and can entrust his support to.

The hermits in Xige were immediately attracted by Li Xuan's proposal.

They were procrastinating because they were stuck on the core runes.

Now that Li Xuan took the initiative to say he didn't want it, they were naturally happy.

The Xige hermits exchanged glances with each other, and finally focused their attention on the old man in the Xige hermit's image.

As hermits of the West Pavilion, they had long since given up their names and identities. But this man was the oldest among them, and his companions affectionately called him "Old Man."

The old man had previously suggested using runes to communicate, and not everyone had raised objections.

After all, Li Xuan had used runes to break into the chat room before, which left a deep impression on all of them.

But the old man still insisted.

It was not until now that they sensed something fishy.

"Old man, you decide."

"We listen to you."

The other five Xige hermits expressed their opinions one after another.

Only then did the old man slowly raise his head and look at Li Xuan.

"God of destiny, why don't we make a bet?"

"explain."

Li Xuan uttered a word.

"If you can really perfect the Holy Fire Sect's Yin-Yang technique within two months."

"We in the West Pavilion also offer the Yin-Yang technique."

"With the core runes we control."

The old man's words were shocking, causing the other hermits in the West Pavilion to change color.

But they did not interrupt and let the old man continue speaking.

"If we can't, we will accompany you deep into the cold wave."

"But the destiny master must promise us one thing, and must save our lives."

"If you fail to do so, then the Destiny One will owe Xige a favor."

When Li Xuan heard the bet, he couldn't help but look at the old man in surprise.

"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you in the cold wave and then occupy the entire West Pavilion?"

The old man smiled slightly, stretched out a skinny finger and pointed above his head.

"Heaven will bear witness for us."

"Do you need me to swear by the law of heaven?"

Li Xuan tilted his head.

"No need." The old man shook his head and continued, "Tomorrow is the deadline, which will be two months."

"When the time comes, we will fulfill the bet with the result."

"The cold wave is about to stop. We should still have two months."

"What do you think, Destiny?"

Li Xuan thought about it carefully and did not feel that there was any trap in this bet.

Although two months is a short time, it is not impossible for Li Xuan.

[Holy Fire Immortal Body: 30%]

The progress of this technique is not slow.

Especially today when we were dispelling the cold wave in Sandbag Valley, the progress increased rapidly by a few points.

There was no reason for Li Xuan to refuse this bet.

Li Xuan can accept it whether he wins or loses.

"Okay, I accept this bet!"

Seeing that Li Xuan agreed immediately, the old man walked up to him, squatted, and slowly stretched out his hand.

Li Xuan smiled slightly, raised a cat paw and pressed it.

"God's will, the bet is done."

"We are waiting for your good news."

Li Xuan looked at the old man deeply, then turned and left.

Before leaving, he just left a few words.

"Let me tell you one thing. Until now, none of my enemies have had a good ending."

The hermits in the West Pavilion were startled.

They naturally also knew the consequences of going against the Chosen One.

After all, going against the destiny is, to some extent, going against the way of heaven.

Li Xuan came here suddenly not to monitor the hermits in the West Pavilion.

Instead, he just suddenly caught a hint of the subtle fluctuation of rune power.

When he arrived, the hermits of the West Pavilion were communicating using runes.

Li Xuan hid in the dark and peeked at the screen.

It was not until the bet was signed that Li Xuan was sure that it was the old man who led him here.

But Li Xuan couldn’t figure out why the old man did this.

The bet was clearly in his favor.

If the hermits in the West Pavilion had any plans, they would only have those two months.

Li Xuan thought of this, but didn't think they could pose any threat in these two months.

With the new Yin-Yang skills, Li Xuan's strength will only get stronger.

Even if the hermits in Xige had any plans, they were just empty calculations.

Seeing Li Xuan's back disappearing into the night, the hermits in the West Pavilion began to whisper again.

"Is he really gone?"

"We don't know whether he left or not."

Someone complained.

Li Xuan had obviously been lurking in the dark just now.

But all of them were unaware of anything, obviously they had special concealment abilities.

"Ugh--"

The person asking the question sighed, feeling extremely helpless.

The other five people looked at the old man silently.

They had noticed something was wrong earlier, and only now did they want to find out what was going on.

"Old man, you..."

"If we drag it out, the conflict will only get worse. If something bad happens in the future, we may have to bear all the responsibility."

"Rather than that, let's leave it to God."

"It all depends on God's will."

Others cannot fully understand the old man's wisdom.

"Then you make the Chosen One owe Xige a favor..."

"Have you noticed the little princess who has been holding the man of destiny?" the old man asked.

"You mean Princess Ankang?"

The old man nodded and continued:

"I found that the Chosen One always stayed with the little princess, but was not so close to the Emperor of Daxing."

"You also said that the princess' name is Ankang, not Yanzhao."

After hearing the old man's words, the other five hermits in Xige were thoughtful.

At this time, the old man continued to mutter to himself:
"Perhaps, this is why Heaven chose a cat to be the Chosen One."

"Cats are always simpler than humans."

The old man said this with a faint smile on his face.

……

On the second day, Li Xuan began to bombard the cold wave.

He had already told Emperor Yongyuan and Nirubail about the bet.

Others also gradually found out.

After knowing the bet, Nirubel and Sharon fully assisted Li Xuan in his practice.

Li Xuan had previously discovered that using the power of holy fire to dispel the cold wave could quickly accumulate progress.

As he analyzed Sharon's Tao, he was able to emulate it.

Li Xuan's way of reincarnation, coupled with the evolutionary ability of the Yin-Yang Zhenji Jue, makes it possible for him to do such a thing.

But this will take quite some time.

And Nilubaier tried her best to help Li Xuan recover the power of the holy fire.

Now, Li Xuan has completely mastered the Holy Fire Immortal Body and can ignite the Holy Fire on his own.

Therefore, Nilubaiel does not need to return to the Holy Fire Cult's headquarters to charge the Fire Gem.

Li Xuan blasted cold waves during the day and replenished the fire gems at night, allowing the Holy Fire Immortal Body to operate uninterruptedly.

Unless he was extremely tired, he would take a nap in the little girl's arms.

Others were not idle either.

Daxing and the Holy Fire Sect sent people to look for the remnants of Beiliang.

At the very least, I'd like to find someone who is familiar with the terrain there.

They all guessed that the core of the cold wave was in Beiliang.

If you really want to go into a cold wave, you must have a guide.

Although everything inside the cold wave is white, they now have the means to temporarily dispel the cold wave in an area.

In this way, they are able to distinguish directions.

And now they lack a suitable guide.

They are actively carrying out preparatory work like this, regardless of whether it is useful or not.

Time flies by so fast.

And on this day, they received good news.

Qianren Sword Pavilion and Fuyun Temple sent people to the scene.
