C441 Finger Sky Vow
Zeng Jue was unable to back down immediately. He had only guessed that Nie Zhen had thousands of Manu Spirit Grass in his possession. He told the others about it and encouraged them to make a bet on him as well, so as to make Nie Zhen feel disgusted.
However, it was a bit awkward for him to suddenly ask for his opinion.
Putting aside what would happen if he found the spiritual herb, if he didn't, he would slap himself ten times in front of the crowd. As the genius of the sect, Zeng Jue was unable to tolerate this.
Besides, even if he found the Spirit Grass, Zeng Jue knew that he wouldn't get much. The three elders would at least get half of it, and then the others would have to split it evenly. In the end, Zeng Jue feared that he wouldn't get much.
Suddenly, Zeng Jue felt wronged. He was kind enough to tell this information to everyone, but it turned out that he was the one who got all the responsibility, and the benefits had to be shared equally with everyone. Why?!
However, Zeng Jue only thought about it and said that it was impossible to say it out loud. He didn't have the capital like Nie Zhen, so he dared to argue with him.
Immediately, Zeng Jue said tactfully: "Wait …" I say, gentlemen, is there something wrong with our focus? [Our target should be Nie Zhen, but why is it focused on me now?!] It's not fair to me! "
"Fair?" Nie Zhen suddenly sneered: "It's fine if other people say that, but are you even qualified to talk about fairness? When you falsely accused me of harvesting thousands of Cunninghamia, why didn't you consider the question of fairness? Now that you have to bear the consequences, you actually want to come and discuss fairness with us? "Pfft!"
Zeng Jue was flabbergasted. He did not expect Nie Zhen's counterattack to be so sharp and yet so intertwined. He could not refute it at all.
At this time, Lei Yan stood up and shouted, "Zeng Jue, do you agree or not? Hurry up and give me a straightforward answer. "You always act like you're number two and number three, why do you have to bear the consequences and become a pussy now?"
However, Lei Yan's words, even the Jiugong Sect disciples had experienced it deeply. Zeng Jue usually hid himself even within the Jiugong Sect as if he was the strongest under the heavens, and if he had to bear the consequences, he would hide himself faster than anyone else. It was truly not something he could do.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, and that there were even some people with mocking expressions in their eyes, Zeng Jue felt an unprecedented humiliation and immediately shouted in anger: "F * ck, why wouldn't I dare to do that! Nie Zhen, if I agree to your conditions, do you dare to let us search through our entire bodies?! Who knows if you have stuffed those medicinal herbs into some other place and not into the Storage Ring's body! "
Nie Zhen said with a faint smile: "Don't change the topic, just tell me if you dare to bet or not."
"Why would I not dare!" Blue veins were already popping out of Zeng Jue's forehead.
"There's no basis for words. Swear to the heavens." The cultivation of a cultivator connected to the way of the heavens and earth. If one did not abide by the oath sworn to by the heavens, it was extremely likely that they would be judged by the heavens, which was also known as' swearing '. Thus, very few cultivators would swear to the heavens, and all cultivators would pay great attention to the oath made by the heavens and earth.
When Zeng Jue saw that Nie Zhen actually wanted him to make an oath, he immediately hesitated. He had thought that if Nie Zhen really didn't have the spirit grass, he could just find an excuse and deny it. Since he didn't want to slap him, he had no other choice.
However, if he wanted to establish an oath, then he must carry it out. Otherwise, when the judgement of the heaven and earth arrives, the result will be even more terrifying than a slap to his face. Zeng Jue didn't dare to take this risk.
"F * ck!" Zeng Jue, how long are you going to be like this! Are you a sissy?! This father has long thought that you were no longer a man! Just how long are you planning to wait?! "
"That's right, don't embarrass the Jiugong Sect! You made others look down on you! "
Zeng Jue's cowardly performance made everyone around him furious. This person was too secretive when it came to doing things, and even the Jiugong Sect disciples looked down on him.
Even though Duan Peng was the same as Zeng Jue and saw Nie Zhen as an enemy, even Duan Peng felt that Zeng Jue was not a man and was ashamed to be associated with him.
Elder Qian Yuan, who was the leader of the Jiugong Sect, was getting impatient. He frowned and said to Zeng Jue: "Zeng Jue, you are not sure about this at all, so if you are sure, then swear an oath. You can't embarrass my Jiugong Sect in front of other sects just because of you."
Although Zeng Jue was a Jiugong Sect disciple, the relationship between Elder Qian Yuan and Zeng Jue's grandfather wasn't that close, so Elder Qian Yuan didn't try to protect Zeng Jue. He even felt that Zeng Jue's slow manner made him lose face for the Jiugong Sect.
Being continuously shouted at by the people around him, Zeng Jue did not even stand on his side anymore, and anxiously said: "Swear it, then swear it! "I, Zeng Jue, swear to the heavens that if Nie Zhen is searched by all of us and no spiritual herbs are found, I, Zeng Jue, will slap myself on the face ten times in public. If I break this oath, the heavens will be destroyed!"
Zeng Jue almost gritted his teeth as he swore the oath. After he gave the test, everyone turned to look at Nie Zhen.
"Pah pah pah …" Nie Zhen applauded Zeng Jue and laughed, "Deal!"
Then, Nie Zhen said to Zeng Jue and Duan Peng, "I'll have to trouble you to search him now, but I'll have to trouble you to do so first. Zeng Jue is the informer and I don't trust him, so he can't search us.
When Zeng Jue saw Nie Zhen eliminating him, he felt unhappy and pointed at Nie Zhen in dissatisfaction, "Nie Zhen, why did you drag me out alone? Could it be that you're feeling guilty?! This time, I really have my doubts about you! "
Nie Zhen looked at Zeng Jue and sneered, "What's so strange about you suspecting me? Isn't it true that most of the people here suspect me? Otherwise, there wouldn't be a situation like this. What do you think is so special about you? You're the one who testified against me, and I was even afraid that when you searched my Storage Ring, your brain would be messed with and your spirit medicine would be stuffed inside my Storage Ring! "
"Do you think I'm stupid?!" Zeng Jue was furious. If he had spiritual medicine and even stuffed it into Nie Zhen's Storage Ring, waiting for others to find it before sharing it among him, then he would really have a problem with his brain.
At this time, Elder Qian Yuan waved his hand and said to Zeng Jue, "Forget it, you don't need to search. With so many people searching, we can have one more person and one less person. This will not affect the overall situation."1
In order to search for the Storage Ring of Nie Zhen as soon as possible, Elder Qian Yuan had to eliminate Zeng Jue. The truth was as he said, with so many people participating in the search, it was indeed a small number compared to Zeng Jue.
