Primordial Era: When a Good Guy Awakens a Morally Unethical System

Although the idea came from Hongyun, he was also worried. If he lost, he wasn't sure he could give the Earth Book to Tongtian to play with. Although the Earth Book was bound to its owner and wouldn't be lost, Zhen Yuanzi might not agree to it.

But the moral depravity was like a piece of meat dangling in front of Hongyun, driving her to keep chasing after it. So much so that even though her conscience wouldn't allow it, Hongyun still did it.

The stakes weren't high, and even if he lost, he wouldn't lose anything. However, Hongyun knew Tongtian's status among the Three Pure Ones. Regardless of winning or losing, if Yuanshi knew that Tongtian had used his magic weapon to gamble, he would get a beating.

"Would Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi agree?" Tongtian was intrigued upon hearing about the Earth Book, but he was also somewhat skeptical.

Hongyun blinked, knowing that the matter was mostly settled: "It's not like I lost it, I'm just showing it to you, what's the big deal!"

Hongyun's nonchalant attitude gave Tongtian confidence, and Tongtian was no longer worried about being blamed. He said, "My eldest brother has the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda, and my second brother has the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi."

Hongyun was overjoyed, but on the surface she pretended to be deep in thought.

After a moment, Hongyun spoke: "It's a bit unfair to you that I only wagered the Earth Book. I also have a companion spirit treasure, the Nameless Pearl. If you win, you can choose one of the two treasures to play with; otherwise, I can have the same."

Tongtian nodded as well: "Good!"

Neither of them believed they would lose, so they found an open space in Wuzhuang Temple, set up a barrier, and began their magical duel.

Without using any magical artifacts, relying solely on their magical power, the two fought for over a hundred years. Only after exchanging a glance and simultaneously ceasing their attacks did they secretly breathe a sigh of relief. This was already the result of giving their all; whether in terms of endurance or explosive power, the two were evenly matched, making it difficult to determine a winner.

But this is better than losing.

"We call it a draw," Hongyun said after the game ended.

"Alright, then the bet doesn't need to be honored." Tongtian breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then let's settle it together. I'll go steal Zhen Yuanzi's Earth Book for you to play with." Hongyun was really eager to see Tongtian get beaten up.

"Steal what?"

An angry voice rang out behind Hongyun.

Hongyun stiffened, feeling inexplicably guilty, and didn't even dare to turn around to look.

But Hongyun didn't turn around, and the people behind him weren't going to let him off so easily. Instead, they walked directly to Hongyun's side and asked again, "What are you stealing?"

Hongyun turned to look at Zhen Yuanzi, smiling ingratiatingly: "I lost the bet, and you gave your Earth Book to Fellow Daoist Tongtian to play with. But don't worry, it's just playing with; it's still yours!"

Zhen Yuanzi suppressed the urge to slap Hongyun and looked at Tongtian.

Tongtian was in a rather awkward position. If Zhen Yuanzi was unwilling, he would have been willing to drop the bet. He had been full of confidence during the match and hadn't even considered the possibility of losing. Only now that he had lost did he begin to feel fear.

"If Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi is unwilling, then we will cancel the bet," Tongtian quickly said.

Zhen Yuanzi had just heard what Hongyun said. They had fought to a draw, and he was going to give one of the following to the other to play with: the Earth Book, the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda, or the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi.

The Earth Book is so important that Hongyun was willing to gamble with it. If Hongyun isn't taught a lesson, he might be sent away directly next time.

However, Hongyun was just like that, and he didn't know how to teach Hongyun a lesson. Now that Tongtian was here, and Tongtian had also lost his brother's magic weapon as a prize, it would be a good opportunity for Hongyun to see what fate awaited Tongtian.
