Chapter 66: Continue Acting
Upon seeing this, Chi Chi stepped forward and grabbed his other leg. The two of them dragged him into the Third Elder’s study as if he was a dead pig.
In the study, the Third Elder looked at the bet Jun Mohuang handed over with a dark expression.
Jun Mohuang savored the Third Elder’s expression. “Why, don’t you want to acknowledge it?”
The Third Elder’s expression darkened upon hearing this. He’d painstakingly accumulated a thousand Spirit Stones for more than a decade, but he didn’t expect his prodigal grandson to squander them all today.
And the way he lost it was so weird and childish.
He really did not want to acknowledge it.
But Jun Mohuang had a written bet and two bodyguards were now looking at him covetously. How could he refuse!
The Third Elder had no choice but to give Jun Mohuang a thousand Spirit Stones.
“Idiot brother left home for half a year and gave you such a big present as soon as he returned. Remember to come to Mohuang Pavilion more often in the future.”
Jun Mohuang was finally satisfied with the Spirit Stones and left with a wave of her hand.
Third Elder almost couldn’t swallow his anger at the sight of her acting like she’d just received a bargain.
“Look at what you’ve done!”
The Third Elder’s face was ashen and his heart was bleeding from the loss of a thousand Spirit Stones.
He had thought that his grandson was reliable and sensible. He did not expect him to be such an embarrassment as soon as he returned to the Jun Family.
It would be a joke if word got out that he had lost Spirit Stones and even got injured.
“I thought that the rumor about Jun Mohuang having a powerful man backing her was false.”
Jun Jianren lowered his head in shame. As he recalled the humiliation of being defeated in one move, he clenched his fists tightly in his sleeves.
“Sigh, Jianren, the thousand Spirit Stones were prepared by Grandfather for you to break through the Ninth Stage of the spiritual realm and to forge the spiritual platform when you reach the Spirit Casting realm. Now look what happened…”
The Third Elder sighed incessantly. Spirit Stones were a scarce resource. One couldn’t have a thousand Spirit Stones with 10 million gold coins.
The Jun Family had declined over the years. For an elder like him, it was difficult to obtain a large number of Spirit Stones.
“What, Grandfather? Although I’m talented, I’m not confident I can break through the ninth stage and reach the Spirit Casting realm.”
Jun Jianren snapped out of his hatred and was shocked.
As the name suggested, the spiritual realm was the most basic realm for a cultivator.
Above the spiritual realm was the Spirit Casting realm and the Spiritual Dimension.
But in Huan Yun, where the spiritual energy was lacking, very few people could reach the Spirit Casting realm.
Even a super-genius with mystical abilities could not guarantee that he could reach the Spirit Casting realm.
Upon hearing the Third Elder’s words, Jun Jianren’s first reaction was disbelief.
“Jianren, I’ll tell you today. Back then, I obtained a Spirit Casting Pill from an expert. As long as you cultivate to the ninth stage, you’ll definitely be able to break through.”
It was a pity that without the Spirit Stones, he would not be able to forge the spitirual platform even if he were to reach the Spirit Casting realm. There was no way he could cultivate further without Spirit Stones in his vital energy.
“Grandfather, don’t worry. I’ll think of a way to get the Spirit Stones.”
Jun Jianren was overjoyed to hear this. Wouldn’t he be more powerful than Huan Yun’s number one genius, Feng Yunyi, if he had a 100% chance of breaking through to the Spirit Casting realm?
At this point, his thoughts started to run wild again.
“Jun Mohuang has hurt me badly this time. I must teach her a lesson!”
“Haven’t you suffered enough today? What are you thinking of doing again!”
Upon hearing his words, the Third Elder’s heart hung in suspense.
