Chapter 243 Winning the Bet

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xian's face froze, "You... don't think about it again, I'm talking about 10,000 taels of gold."

Seeing that Chen Xian looked a little flustered, Tiger was sure that the other party was just bluffing, so he took off the sword at his waist without hesitation.

"This is my sword, worth at least 20,000 taels of gold."

With just one glance, Chen Xian could tell that this knife was indeed a good one. The rank 6 earth magic crystal inlaid on it was worth ten thousand taels of gold.

Just as he was about to say it was worth it, Tiger put the knife back and glanced at Lucy beside him.

"If you can't be cured, in addition to your life, I want Lucy to agree to marry me."

"No."

Before Lucy could answer, Chen Xian refused.

This immediately made Tiger furious.

"How dare you snatch a woman from this prince?"

As he spoke, Tiger drew out his broadsword, fully releasing the aura of the Level 6, and glared at Chen Xian, threatening to kill him with the sword if he didn't give a good answer.

Lucy was almost collapsed to the ground by the fierce momentum, and Chen Xian took a light step in front of her.

The huge pressure disappeared in an instant.

He gave Lucy a reassuring look, then spoke calmly to Tiger.

"My noble prince of the lion tribe, you must have evidence when you speak. When did I ever say that I want to snatch a woman from you?"

Chen Xian's words, "the noble lion prince," touched Tiger's heart. His expression softened a lot and he restrained his aura, but he still didn't put down the sword.

"You are a monkey who can talk, but why do you object to Lucy marrying me as a bet?"

"Your Excellency, Prince of the Lion Tribe, as a proud orc, how can you gamble with a woman's lifelong happiness!

Your Highness, if you insist, then we might as well not gamble."

Chen Xian spoke righteously, which made the lion men beside him excited.

But Tiger was even more certain that Chen Xian was just pretending because he saw that he was not scared away.

He was afraid that if the bet really succeeded, he would not be able to cure it and could not afford to lose.

This monkey has learned the cunningness of the foxes.

"Okay, let's follow the bet we just made. If you win, the knife is yours, and if you lose, you'll have to keep your life."

As if afraid that Chen Xian would do something else, Tiger stuck the knife into the ground, indicating that the bet was settled.

"Since Prince Tiger insists, I will agree to the bet."

Chen Xian looked helpless, which made Tiger speechless.

Wasn't it the monkey people who proposed this bet in the first place?

It feels like he is being forced by me to behave like this.

Although he was a little depressed, he felt happy at the thought that he would be able to chop off the head of this cunning monkey with his own hands in a moment.

Tiger couldn't wait any longer, "You can go treat old Fox now."

"Let me make it clear first. If you haven't cured the old man yet and he dies, you will lose the bet."

"It can't be more than three days."

I didn’t expect that this lion prince was such a thoughtful person.

"Okay, it doesn't take three days, just half a day will do."

Tiger showed a cruel smile. He wanted to let you live for three more days, but he didn't expect you to be so eager to die.

"If you can cure it in half a day, I will give you another 10,000 taels of gold."

Chen Xian didn't expect that Prince Tiger would be so generous and rush to give him money.

"That's fine, but you can't use a knife to buy off this 10,000 taels of gold."

"of course."

Tiger sneered as he said this. He was about to die, but he was still so stubborn.

Lucy walked beside Chen Xian and stuffed a palm-sized piece of animal skin into his hand.

"You can run out when they aren't paying attention. This hide is a map of this area."

"Run south. Your monkey tribe is in that direction."

Chen Xian took the map and asked, "Why don't you believe that I have cured your father?"

"Don't forget, I am the Beast God Messenger you invited back."

After hearing what he said, Lucy rolled her eyes at him helplessly.

This monkey man has no magic or fighting spirit at all, and he actually thinks of himself as the messenger of the Beast God.

If you don't leave now, you will lose your life in vain.

"Hurry up, don't dawdle." Tiger turned around and yelled at the two people who were talking quietly.

"Prince Tiger, you want to lose money to me so soon?"

This damn monkey was actually whispering with Lucy openly and didn't take me seriously at all.

I'll let you show off, and then when I chop you down, see how you cry.

It was as if he had already seen this nasty monkey crying and begging for mercy under his knife.

Tiger smiled slightly and said, "Boy, if you want to make money, you have to rely on real ability, not just talk."

"Follow up quickly."

He quickened his pace and walked into the cave, fearing that he would not be able to control himself and would chop the monkey man down right away.

Chen Xian gave Lucy a reassuring look, but the other party didn't notice it at all. She snorted and walked ahead.

Now Lucy is not wearing the large fur cloak, revealing her graceful figure.

Only then did Chen Xian notice the amazingly perky butt behind.

By the way, fox people should have a fox tail.

Could it be...

Lucy's long skirt covered it, so it was impossible to see whether she had a fox tail or not.

If there is a fox tail, would it be a direct extension of the coccyx like the monkeys he mentioned before?

Thinking of this, Chen Xian actually had the urge to lift up her skirt and take a look.

"Look at his dazed look, is he scared silly?"

The voice of an old fox woman sounded, interrupting Chen Xian's evil thoughts.

A group of old fox women followed behind, holding little foxes in their arms.

"Isn't this monkey man looking for death? Even the Great Shaman of the Lion Tribe couldn't cure him, so how can he?"

"Don't all monkey people live in the south? I don't know where Lucy found this."

"I hope Prince Tiger won't vent his anger on us."

"As long as Lucy marries the prince, our fox tribe will have hope of survival."

……

Chen Xian heard every word of the discussions of the surrounding fox people.

He now felt a little sympathetic towards Lucy. As a fox princess, she did not enjoy the rights of a princess, but had to fulfill the obligations of a princess.

Soon the group arrived at the large cave where the fox people lived.

Prince Tiger obviously knew about Old Fox's cave and went straight over to open the door.

"Wait a minute."

"Prince Tiger, the bet is about to be revealed. Please take out your chips."

Seeing that Tiger was about to get angry, Chen Xian immediately smiled.

"Dear Prince Tiger, please don't get me wrong. It's not that I don't trust you."

"It's just that this bet still needs to be taken out before the bet is made."

Upon hearing this, Prince Tiger's eyes suddenly lit up and he readily stuck the knife into the ground.

Then he took out a valuable gem and placed it on the hilt of the knife.

"My bets are all out, what about yours?"

Tiger's face was gloomy.

But it had no effect on Chen Xian at all.

"My bet is my life. It has always been here. As long as I lose the bet, you can take it."

"If the prince wants it now, he will inevitably be known as someone who can't afford to gamble."

"I'm sure the great Lion King will be unhappy if he finds out."

Seeing the other party bring out the Lion King, Tiger clenched his teeth tightly and exhaled two heavy breaths from his nostrils.

"Okay, I'll keep your head on your neck for a while."

"Go get treatment now, don't dawdle."

Chen Xian walked up to Tiger and ignored his angry look.

He pulled up the big knife from the ground and looked at the gem in front of his eyes.

The action was like that of a jeweler identifying the quality of a gem.

"Yes, these two items are indeed worth 20,000 gold coins."

"Thank you Prince for your generosity!"

As he spoke, Chen Xian put the two things into the space ring.

"You are so brave that you even dare to take my Tiger's things."

Tiger raised his arm, which was thicker than a human thigh, and angrily prepared to punch Chen Xian.

"Prince Tiger, this is my stuff. Is there anything wrong with me putting it away?"

"You kid, do you think this prince is a fool?"

Tiger's fist was blocked by Chen Xian with one hand, and without waiting for the other party to be surprised, he began to persuade him.

"We're making a bet, right?"

"Ok!"

"This is a bet, right?"

"Ok!"

"If I win the bet it's mine right?"

"Hmm! Hmm? No, when did you win?"

Chen Xian pointed to the entrance of Old Fox's cave, and the wooden door was already open.

An old fox man with a long beard was standing there.

"Father~"

Lucy rushed towards the old fox man, tears in her eyes, and cried with joy.

"Impossible, there is no antidote for that poison."

The orc next to Tiger, who was wearing an animal skin cloak and holding a strange staff, shouted when he saw Old Fox.
