Reaching this conclusion, Su Luo descended into a dilemma.
Suddenly, Su Luo noticed Yan Xiao’s figure sneakingly making his retreat. But since everyone had their focus on her, no one in the field had noticed that Yan Xiao was running away.
His actions made Su Luo presumed that Yan Xiao had a crush on her! How could he be so cute? It was as if he was preparing the bed for her to sleep whenever she felt tired.
Since he was watching Su Luo’s expression as he was trying to run away, she pretended to be brimming with confidence as she started to inlay the gem; the flame was becoming bigger and wilder, more alive than ever…
After Yan Xiao had fled away and left no trace behind, Su Luo knew that her chance had arrived.
When the gem was about to be embedded into the Cheng Ying sword; suddenly, Su Luo’s forehead started to sweat, and there was white smoke coming out from the back of her head…
“Su Luo is running out of energy! Her last energy is spent!”
“Hang in there! This is the last moment already, don’t give it up!”
“Hey hey hey, please don’t let your flame get extinguished!”
Under everyone’s loud shouts of encouragement, the flame still continued to gradually, but surely die out … yet again, the purple gem fell into Su Luo’s hand.
Su Luo gasped for air and waved: “I can’t continue anymore. I can’t continue anymore, that pressure’s too strong, my flame’s energy capacity can’t be compressed any further… ”
Seeing the state Su Luo was in, everyone didn’t doubt her words at all.
“I told you so, she definitely can’t successfully inlay the 7th gem.”
“That’s right, no matter how strong it is, the Spiritual Fire she possesses is still an ordinary fire. If it was any kind of Exotic Fire, she definitely wouldn’t encounter any problem at all.”
“What a shame, she only missed it by just a bit.”
“Oh, does that mean that Su Luo had lost this bet???”
Su Luo nodded: “That’s right, I’ve really lost this bet. Where is Yan Xiao? I should apologize to him.” In any case, when they were setting the bet, Yan Xiao was proud of himself, resulting in him allowing Su Luo to not place any prize for losing the bet at all.
Right, where is Yan Xiao?
Everyone started to search for him.
Only at that very moment did they realize that Yan Xiao was gone!
Everyone was looking to their left and right, with all of them being stunned. Wasn’t this the moment when he could show off his overbearing side? Where did he go?
Then, someone made a weak gesture: “When Su Luo was inlaying the 7th gem and was just about to succeed, Yan Xiao suddenly… ran away in the blink of an eye …”
The audience thought back to Yan Xiao and Su Luo’s bet, looked at the 76 targets, before looking over to Fairy Wu You… They instantly burst out into roaring laughter!!
They were laughing so much that they kneeled forward, their stomachs in knots as they tittered on the edge of collapse.
At this moment, Fairy Wu You’s face turned so dark it appeared as though someone had infused black ink into her face, to the point that one would be able to squeeze black ink out of her.
How embarrassing! This was utterly humiliating!!!
Fairy Wu You had never been this humiliated before!
Yan Xiao was one of her people. If he had run away because he feared losing a bet, he was outright embarrassing her!
If he had lost, Yan Xiao’s escape could barely be explained. However, he had clearly won the bet, but then he wasn’t here anymore… Not only was he not able to enjoy his victory, but he had also embarrassed himself by a large mile. In fact, Fairy Wu You wanted to kill Yan Xiao with a slap!
Su Luo then put up an act of being confused and innocent.
“Where’s Yan Xiao? Why don’t I see Yan Xiao anymore? If he isn’t here, who can I apologize to? If he wanted to leave, he should at least say something, right? Would anyone run away halfway through a bet?” Su Luo turned over to look at Fairy Wu You, “Senior Sister Wu You, didn’t Yan Xiao win? Why did he run away?”
