Chapter 312 - Digging A Trap

"Liu Wuxie, you\'re finished. How dare you call us garbage? Today, I\'ll let you know who\'s the garbage!" Su Ji took a step forward, releasing his aura in the seventh level, causing the bookshelves on both sides to tremble.

Everyone\'s gazes were filled with anger when they looked at Liu Wuxie.

"You\'re planning to make a move now?" Liu Wuxie narrowed his eyes. This place was the Book Collection Hall, and anyone wanting to act here would be courting death.

Right at that moment, Deacon Kou entered. It was time for rotation, and his shift would resume the following week.

"What\'s going on?" Deacon Kou\'s face sank when he saw Liu Wuxie. He didn\'t expect Liu Wuxie to cause trouble again in just half a day.

"Deacon Kou, this brat is causing disruption in the Book Collection Hall, flipping through the books rapidly since he came in. In just one day, he flipped through thirty-seven thousand books." Someone following Liu Wuxie provided an accurate number, perhaps even more precise than Liu Wuxie himself could recall.

Deacon Kou stumbled, as this was the first time he had heard of someone reading over thirty thousand books in a single day during his decades-long tenure.

"Is that true?" Deacon Kou was furious. He had been wondering how to find an opportunity to trouble Liu Wuxie, but he didn\'t expect it to present itself so quickly.

"Absolutely! I\'ve been following behind him since he came in, and he has been flipping through books randomly instead of reading quietly." Another person stepped forward to join the condemnation of Liu Wuxie.

Everyone in the surroundings nodded in agreement because Liu Wuxie had only been flipping through books rapidly since he came in.

"Liu Wuxie, what do you have to say now?!" Deacon Kou looked at Liu Wuxie. This was an excellent opportunity for him to teach Liu Wuxie a lesson. He could forcibly punish Liu Wuxie for affecting everyone else.

"How are they so sure that I\'m not seriously reading?" Liu Wuxie wore a mocking smile, sweeping his gaze through the crowd. They were just a bunch of frogs in a well, so how could they know the vastness of the world?

After a day of reading, Liu Wuxie had a rough understanding of the True Martial Continent. However, the cultivation environment was important, and he had yet to have the opportunity to come in contact with it.

The other regions were more prosperous than the Southern Province. From one book, Liu Wuxie had even learned about the existence of the Quasi-Immortal Realm, which was infinitely close to immortality.

This meant immortals could be born in the True Martial Continent. The world was more significant than many could imagine, and the True Martial Continent was just one of them.

If it were impossible to reach the Immortal Realm, Liu Wuxie wouldn\'t be able to return to the Celestial Realm even if he reached the pinnacle.

"Liu Wuxie, you\'re still trying to argue? You flipped through thirty-seven thousand books, and I have a record of each one. Do you dare to say you remember every book by heart?" A person stepped forward with a thick book that recorded all the books Liu Wuxie had flipped through.

"What are you going to do if I remember them all?" Liu Wuxie suddenly smiled. His smile was mysterious as he swept his gaze over this person. This person had been jumping around, collaborating with Su Ji to suppress him. He naturally would only let it go with teaching this person a proper lesson.

"I\'ll kneel and kowtow to you if you remember half of them!" The man pointed his hand to the sky. He refused to believe Liu Wuxie remembered all the contents of the books he had scanned.

"You\'re not my grandson, so why should you kneel to me? Why don\'t we make a bet instead?" Liu Wuxie smiled and glanced around. He urgently needed spirit stones as he had just joined the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, and this was a great opportunity.

"Alright. How do you want to bet?" Su Ji took a step forward as he was the mastermind.

To everyone\'s surprise, Deacon Kou did not intervene and let the situation develop. He was a deacon and couldn\'t explain to the sect if a fight occurred here. But a private gamble was acceptable since it wouldn\'t damage anything.

"Since you all know that I\'ve read through thirty-seven thousand books, how about this: one spirit stone for each question I can answer. If I lose, I\'ll pay one spirit stone. Fair deal, isn\'t it?" Liu Wuxie proposed this, keeping his terms reasonable. After all, these people only had about nine to ten thousand mid-grade spirit stones at best, and only a few might be willing to participate in the gamble.

Liu Wuxie\'s demands were fair. Since these people wanted his mid-grade spirit stones, he also wanted their spirit stones. But only the last one standing would get the last laugh.

"Alright, I\'ll bet!" Su Ji said without any hesitation.

"It\'s boring, just the two of us. I have many spirit stones on me, and everyone here can participate in the bet." Liu Wuxie purposely released a hint of his spirit stones\' aura. He had obtained an astronomical sum of low-grade spirit stones during the Battle of the Hundred Nations, which would give everyone an illusion that he had tens of thousands of mid-grade spirit stones on him.

Everyone pounded their chests upon hearing the bet because Su Ji had seized such a good opportunity. But when they listened to what Liu Wuxie said, they all became eager to participate.

"Count me in!" Lin Mingxu and Gongsun Zhen stepped forward, willing to gamble with Liu Wuxie.

Nobody believed that Liu Wuxie could remember the contents of over thirty thousand books in just one day.

These books were inaccessible to the outside world, and no one would bet with him if he were an old-timer in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion. But he had just joined the sect the previous day, and this was his first time in the Book Collection Hall. So it was natural that they wouldn\'t believe what Liu Wuxie said when even a deity might be unable to remember it all.

"Count me in!"

"Count me in!"

In just a few minutes, a few hundred people joined in because this was an excellent opportunity to get rich, and no one wanted to miss it. Even if they only won one spirit stone, they would gain.

Two white-clothed youths stood in the depth of the second floor, but they didn\'t approach.

"This is interesting. I\'m starting to like this kid!" The youth on the right held onto his chin with a devilish smile.

"Brother Yun Lan, you also want to try it?" The youth on the left glanced at the one on the right with a hint of curiosity.

The two stood in a corner, and few people paid attention to them as Liu Wuxie drew everyone\'s attention away.

The two were no ordinary people because they were among the top ten outer disciples of the Heavenly Trigram Peak. The one on the right was Yun Lan, and the one on the left was Fan Xi. They were just one step away from the Heavenly Dipper Realm, and it was just a matter of time for them.

Some time ago, they had even defeated inner disciples as outer disciples, and this practice had long spread among the outer disciples.

An hour later, over six hundred people joined to gamble with Liu Wuxie.

"Deacon Kou, aren\'t you going to join in?" Liu Wuxie smiled. The outer disciples\' resources were limited, and Deacon Kou must be filthy rich. Deacon Kou was his primary target because the outer disciples were not fun.

"Hmph, how can I, a deacon, stoop to your level?" Deacon Kou was tempted because he lacked mid-grade spirit stones as someone in the Heavenly Phase Realm. But he just felt too embarrassed to speak out.

"It\'s just a small gamble for fun. Feel free to join in!" Liu Wuxie was determined to pull Deacon Kou in to avenge the trouble he had caused in the morning.

Liu Wuxie didn\'t consider himself virtuous, so he wouldn\'t let Deacon Kou off so easily.

"Deacon Kou, come and join in. This brat is a priority disciple and must have many spirit stones on him. Are you afraid of him? How can he possibly remember information from so many books?" The other disciples instigated, stirring Deacon Kou\'s heart.

After all, the sect didn\'t have many channels to obtain resources, and plundering from others was undoubtedly the best way.

"Alright, I\'ll join in!" Deacon Kou took out a spirit stone to join the gamble.

A smile rose on Liu Wuxie\'s lips because this was his true objective.

"Words alone aren\'t enough, and we need a witness. After all, what happens if you all renege on the bet? I suggest we put the spirit stones aside and entrust them to one person for safekeeping." Liu Wuxie had already seen through these people\'s ugly faces, and they would resort to desperate means. Thus, it was best to find a witness for the bet.

Everyone looked at each other because they hadn\'t considered that before. The thought of Liu Wuxie winning the bet had never crossed their minds.

"Where are we going to find a witness? With Deacon Kou here, are you saying you don\'t trust him?" Su Ji was getting impatient, thinking that Liu Wuxie was trying to delay on purpose. After all, someone had already gathered and piled the books Liu Wuxie had scanned.

"Why don\'t we act as witnesses and safe-keep all the spirit stones?" a voice sounded as two figures approached. They gave off a faint ripple that synchronized with heaven and earth whenever they took a step.

Liu Wuxie narrowed his eyes and could tell that these two were experts. Their eyes were clear, unlike the others in the surroundings. Having observed countless people, Liu Wuxie could tell these two were open-hearted.

"So, it\'s Senior Brother Yun Lan and Senior Brother Fan Xi. Having you two as witnesses is appropriate, and we feel assured to let you two keep the spirit stones." The moment the two appeared, a chorus of flattery came from the surroundings.

"Young friend, what do you think of my suggestion?" Yun Lan smiled.

"Sure. I\'ll have to trouble you two!" Liu Wuxie nodded without hesitation, entrusting the two of them with all the spirit stones from Su Ji and others. Over six hundred spirit stones were piled up together.

"Let\'s begin!" Deacon Kou waved his hand with displeasure on his face. He was already dragged in, and there was no way he could withdraw now. If news of this spread, he\'d be ridiculed for gambling with an outer disciple while holding the position of a deacon.

However, recalling how Liu Wuxie had disregarded him in the morning, Deacon Kou gritted his teeth in hatred.

"Liu Wuxie, where is the Fengshui Slope recorded in this Miscellaneous Record?" Su Ji casually picked up a book and flipped it to the middle.
