At this moment, Li Long's expression was extremely unpleasant, his face dark as iron.
He had suddenly lost four thousand middle-grade cosmic crystals, along with two top-tier materials, making this a significant loss for him.
"Cough, cough, Young Master Li, I concede," Qin Chen said weakly, clutching his chest as if he might collapse at any moment. "Young Master Li is too strong; I was just a hair's breadth away from falling. Sigh, it truly was just that little bit."
Qin Chen sighed, seeming to lament for Li Long, which made Li Long want to spit blood in frustration.
Clearly, he was the one who lost; why did it seem like Qin Chen was the victim?
"You brat, if you have the guts, take another move from me," Li Long screamed in a frenzy, his eyes bloodshot and his expression frenzied.
He couldn't believe it. How could he not defeat this brat?
"Again? No, I can't do it," Qin Chen waved his hands repeatedly, his expression filled with pain as though he were about to choke.
"No way, winning and then wanting to run? That's not how this works," Li Long stepped forward step by step, his expression mad. "This time, I'll gamble my family's transcendence secret technique with you."
Li Long shouted crazily, looking like a gambler who had lost everything and desperately wanted to turn things around.
The transcendence secret technique? Suddenly, gasps echoed around, and everyone looked at Li Long in disbelief.
Had Li Long gone mad?
The transcendence secret technique was the most powerful legacy of a transcendent family, passed down through generations and incredibly precious. Major forces treasured it; how could it be gambled so easily?
If the Exhausted Dragon Deity found out that Li Long was gambling away their family's transcendence secret technique, he would surely break both his legs.
But at this moment, Li Long was like a drowning man clutching at a straw, unwilling to let go.
He knew that only such a treasure could entice Qin Chen to take action.
"The transcendence secret technique?" Qin Chen showed hesitation, as if tempted by the secret technique yet afraid he couldn't withstand it.
"I'll add three thousand middle-grade cosmic crystals; you several, lend me some," seeing Qin Chen hesitating, Li Long spoke frantically to those nearby. At this moment, he was already blinded by greed.
Beside him, the Exquisite Goddess stared in disbelief at Li Long.
Is this the level of the rich kids in Abyssal Manor?
This idiot, can't he see that Qin Chen has been luring him, making him gamble even more?
With Qin Chen's strength, even a blow from a transcendent master might not seriously injure him, yet after two attacks from Li Long, Qin Chen looked as though he was about to be knocked out. This was clearly a strategy to provoke Li Long, as if saying that just a little more effort would send him crashing.
So cunning, truly too cunning.
"How about it? The transcendence secret technique plus three thousand middle-grade cosmic crystals; do you dare?" Li Long shouted madly.
"I..." Qin Chen was about to speak when suddenly, the Young Master of the Four Directions, who had remained silent, stepped forward and blocked Li Long.
"Li Long, back off," the Young Master of the Four Directions said in a deep voice.
"Who’s blocking me? Get out of the way!" Li Long didn't even look at who was speaking and shouted hysterically.
His eyes were red, and his expression had already gone a bit insane.
Slap! Suddenly, a palm struck Li Long's face, sending him flying and crashing to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"Enough, Li Long, are you not ashamed enough?" the Young Master of the Four Directions shouted, his eyes flashing with cold light.
"You are the Young Master of the Four Directions?" Li Long finally snapped out of his madness and, drenched in sweat, said, "Young Master of the Four Directions, believe me, this time, I can definitely blow that brat apart."
Li Long hurriedly insisted.
Clearly, he thought the Young Master of the Four Directions was disappointed in him and wanted to prove himself.
