Chapter 243: Li Ruoxi’s Bet (4)
“No, I just can’t bear to see you lose a high-grade magic item to me.”
Su Mo had a look of pity on his face, as if he had completely accepted this as reality.
When Li Ruoxi heard this, she almost laughed out loud.
“If it’s something else, such as a battle, it’s possible that I can’t beat you.
However, as a level 5 beastmaster, I can control thousands of beasts. Any movement can’t escape my eyes and ears.
If it was to solve this case, I don’t believe that anyone could catch the murderer faster than me.
If you’re worried that you’ll lose, afraid that you’ll lose the lightless sword, just say it. I’ve never forced others.
However, if you use the excuse that you will definitely win, please forgive me for not accepting it!”
Li Ruoxi looked like an enraged cat.
Su Mo remained silent and did not respond.
When Li Jun saw this scene, he quickly stood up to smooth things over and said,
“Why don’t we forget about it? Everyone was here to investigate the case. They should work together and help each other to find the murderer as soon as possible, not cause any internal conflicts here.”
“My stupid brother, you are wrong.”
As soon as Li Jun finished speaking, Li Ruoxi immediately added,
“It’s precisely because of internal competition that the speed of solving cases is faster.
You also want to catch the murderer as soon as possible, right?
Then you shouldn’t have stopped me.
It has been a long time since I was so full of fighting spirit.”
Li Ruoxi’s eyes seemed to be burn with fire.
Then, she seemed to think of something, and her eyes turned slightly as she asked Su Mo with a hint of craftiness,”
“I remember that you said that you came here to trade for the Bewitching Spirit Crystal. You must be preparing for the second advancement ritual of the sword saint, right?”
This was not something shameful.
Su Mo nodded in agreement.
As Li Ruoxi listened, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. She continued,
” I can tell that you have a great view of the big picture and are far-sighted. You know that you should start preparing for the subsequent advancement from now on.
Many people actually neglected the difficulty of the advancement ritual. Just collecting the materials would take a lot of time.
If he waited until he reached level 6 to look for it, not only would it delay his cultivation progress, but it would also consume more energy.”
She turned to look at Su Mo and continued,”
“If I’m not wrong, this agent named Gu Qing is dead now. It should be very difficult for you to find a second Bewitching Spirit Crystal in a short period of time.
If you enter the border next month and are in a sealed area, it will be even more difficult to obtain the Bewitching Spirit Crystal from the outside world.
You should have thought of all this, right?”
Su Mo nodded and silently agreed.
This was the problem that he felt was more troublesome.
Then, he heard Li Ruoxi say,
“I can change the contents of the bet. As long as you can catch the murderer before me, I will give you a Confusion Spirit Crystal.
However, if I win, I won’t force you to trade with me lightless sword. You just have to admit that you’re inferior to me.
Now, do you still intend to reject this bet?”
When Su Mo heard this, his eyes lit up and he said,”
“I have seriously reminded you that you will definitely lose if you bet with me. Do you really want to bet with this condition?”
Li Ruoxi smiled confidently.
“I’ve never lost a bet since I was young!”
When Su Mo heard this, he sighed and said,”
“In that case, I’ll accept your bet.
However, for the sake of fairness, to prevent others from saying that I’m bullying others.
If I win this bet, I don’t need you to give me the Bewitching Spirit Crystal for free.
Instead, he would use a high-grade magic item to trade with you.
If you don’t agree to this condition, there’s no need to mention the bet anymore.”
Looking at Su Mo’s serious expression, Li Ruoxi felt a little aggrieved.
As the eldest daughter of a Transcendent family, when had she ever suffered such grievances?
When others heard that she had set such a generous bet, they were overjoyed.
Only this fellow was making all sorts of excuses.
However, she had no choice but to agree.
“Alright, as you wish. The conditions of the bet are set. Everyone present will be our witnesses.”
Zhang Zhenyu and the others listened with complicated expressions.
This was the first time they had seen a bet that was made for fear of losing their opponent.
“In that case, I’ll take my leave first.”
As he spoke, Su Mo did not hesitate and walked out.
When Zhang Zhenyu and Qian Tao saw this, they quickly rushed over. At the same time, they ordered people to take good care of the crime scene and Gu Qing’s body, and make backup records and investigation reports.
Li Ruoxi looked at Su Mo’s back and gritted her teeth.”
“You actually dare to underestimate me?
Are you looking down on me, a genius animal tamer?”
She raised her hand and released two beetles with golden spots on their backs.
“Fragrance Seeking Bug, go! Find the two murderers! Let that arrogant fellow see how powerful you are!”
The two Fragrance Seeking Bugs circled around the room and quickly flapped their transparent wings. They turned into two fine golden lights and quickly flew out.
The Li siblings quickly followed.
