That was the middle-grade heaven fire, dove purple flame!
In the bird world, there was a bird called the red-legged Falcon, which often occupied the Magpie’s nest.
There was a similar purple heavenly flame in heavenly fire world called the dove purple flame.
It was very cunning and would secretly attach itself to the body of some powerful heavenly flames, absorbing the energy of the heavenly flames to strengthen itself until the heavenly flames attached to it were extinguished.
Its most prominent feature was that its body was full of tentacles, which could tightly attach to an object.
The tentacle that Xia qingchen had accidentally touched earlier was most likely the rarely seen dove purple flame.
In terms of the true power of the heaven flame, Jiu Ziyan was at the top of the middle-grade.
Among the heaven flames of the same level, there was almost no one that could be compared to it.
The reason why this wisp of dead wood Skyfire had left the main body was probably because the dove purple flame had absorbed all of its energy, so it was very weak.
That was why it was left behind.
“Customer, do you need the heavenly Lotus flame?” Little Luo said with a smile.
She concluded in her heart that Xia qingchen didn’t have the money to purchase such an expensive Lotus heavenly fire.
“How much is the remaining Deadwood Skyfire?”
As expected, Xia qingchen didn’t even dare to ask for the price of the Lotus Skyfire. He only dared to ask for the remnant fire of the dead wood Skyfire.
Xiao Luo’s eyes flickered with contempt.
Hmph, what a waste of time!
She maintained a polite appearance. Hello, young master Xia. This is a remnant fire. It’s not of much value. You can consider medium-low-grade or low-grade high-grade heavenly fire.
The power of this remnant flame was not even as good as an ordinary low-tier low-tier heavenly fire. It was already worthless.
“I’m asking you, how much is it?” Xia qingchen frowned.
Little Luo scorned in his heart, but he smiled and said, “”The head said that the embers aren’t worth much, and whoever wants them can take them.”
The owner of the Skyfire of dead wood didn’t even bother to take it away, so what value could it have?
“Is that so? I’ll take it then.” Since he didn’t want money, Xia qingchen naturally wouldn’t be polite.
Little Luo seemed to nod readily. As he took the crystal ball to collect the last wisp of heavenly fire, he asked cutely, “”Young master Xia, do you want anything else?”
“This wisp is enough.” Xia qingchen spoke.
Little Luo was still smiling, but he was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He actually had the nerve to not buy a ball of heavenly fire!
The smile on her face was finally reduced to the minimum. After storing the embers, she stuffed them into Xia qingchen’s arms and put on a fake smile. “Then I wish young master Xia to win every bet.”
“Thanks for your kind words.” Xia qingchen smiled. He calmly put away the embers and left this place.
When he passed by the Lotus heavenly fire, he didn’t even take a look.
Compared to Jiu Ziyan, the heavenly Lotus flame was not worth mentioning.
When he arrived at a remote place with no one around, he finally took out the remaining fire.
The remnant fire was about the size of a fist, and its surface was completely grey.
The heavenly fire that he had refined rose from Xia qingchen’s palm, absorbing the withered wood heavenly fire bit by bit.
As he pulled the silk out of the cocoon, sure enough, a ball of heavenly fire that was deeply hidden inside the dead wood heavenly fire was revealed.
It was only the size of a pigeon’s egg, and its surface was covered with dense tentacles that were firmly attached to the dead wood Skyfire and refused to let go.
“It’s indeed dove purple flame, and it’s very mature,” Xia qingchen couldn’t help but smile.
Getting a middle-grade heaven flame without spending a single cent, even in the past, he had never had such good luck.
He withdrew the heavenly fire in his palm and stopped absorbing the heavenly fire of dead wood.
Jiu Ziyan once again covered his body with the dead wood heavenly fire and continued to hide in it.
Xia qingchen weighed the crystal ball in his hand and revealed a hint of amusement in his eyes. “I wonder which unlucky fellows will run into me.”
Others mistakenly thought that it was the remnant fire of the dead wood Skyfire, but in fact, it was the dove purple flame, which was several times stronger than the dead wood Skyfire.
When gambling, those who didn’t know would suffer a huge loss!
At that time.
Little Luo went back to his original place and reported to Yu guitian.
“He bought a medium grade heaven flame?” Yu guitian asked with his eyes sparkling.
He was truly a little worried that Xia qingchen might really have the ability to purchase a middle-grade heavenly fire.
“No, I didn’t,” Little Luo said honestly.
Yu guitian heaved a sigh of relief and laughed, “”I told you, he doesn’t have the capital.”
“Then how many balls of heavenly fire did you buy? Let’s make it clear, I have to set a trap for him and make him lose a big sum of money!” Yu guitian said.
Clearly, he was planning to publicize the details of the Skyfire that Xia qingchen possessed. In that case, those who knew about it would definitely be able to win everything if they gambled with him.
“Not a single one.” Little Luo’s little face was bitter.
Yu guitian was stunned,”you didn’t buy any?” Then what is he still waiting for?”
There was only one entrance and exit to the hall, and since Xia qingchen hadn’t left, it meant that he was still in the hall.
“He took away the remnant fire of the heavenly fire of dead wood.” Little Luo said in disdain.
Yu guitian laughed,”the fire that no one wants?” This guy, he can’t be thinking of winning the bet with this remnant fire, right?”
“That’s what he meant,” said little Luo.
“Hahaha!” Yu guitian couldn’t help but laugh. In the past, he was still a little afraid of Xia qingchen. He didn’t expect that Xia qingchen would act so stupidly.
If the remnant fire was really useful, it would not have been left there without anyone taking it.
“Forget it, let him play.” Yu guitian chuckled and didn’t bother to target him.
With just that trace of fire, Xia qingchen would lose no matter who he ran into.
After Xia qingchen obtained the Skyfire, he moved to the center of the Guild Hall.
This place was the core of the heavenly fire Union-the heavenly fire gamble!
The two sides would release their heavenly fire and compete with each other. The winner would win the loser’s chips.
In addition, the onlookers could also place bets on which side’s heavenly fire would win.
In the end, the Guild Hall would be the banker, winning and losing!
As far as the eye could see, there were more than a hundred gambling tables, and almost every table was packed with people.
Xia qingchen went to the nearest gambling table. On the table was a giant crystal ball of the special envoy. Two balls of heavenly fire were concealed inside, waiting to compete with each other.
The dealer at this table shouted,”Come, come, come, I’ll definitely leave!” Party A’s odds are one hundred to one hundred and five, Party B’s odds are one hundred to two hundred.”
Xia qingchen was astonished. Wasn’t the disparity between the odds of both parties too great?
If the onlookers bet on the first party winning, they would only win five Liang Yuan at most if they bet one hundred.
If the person who placed the bet won, he would win 100 Liang Yuan if he placed a bet of 100 Liang Yuan, which was double the amount.
But looking at the gambling table, almost all of them bet on the first party to win!
Xia qingchen observed the two of them and discovered the difference between them.
A sign was hung on the chest of the first party, which stated that this person had gambled 100 rounds, won 80 rounds, and lost 20 rounds.
In contrast, the sign hanging on Party B’s chest read: 50 rounds, 10 wins, 40 losses.
It turned out that the information of the people who participated in the bet would be marked in detail.
The higher the winning rate, the stronger the heavenly fire of the person, and the higher the possibility of winning.
That was why the banker lowered the odds for this person.
On the other hand, Party B had a high probability of losing, so the odds of betting on him winning were double.
Xia qingchen stared at the heavenly fire that was being covered by both sides. With a thought, he took out the remnant flames of the heavenly fire of dead wood.
Yu Huo suddenly moved slightly, and the direction of the flame moved to the other side.
Jiu Ziyan had realized that he didn’t have enough dead wood Skyfire and needed to find a new host.
As a heavenly fire, it could clearly sense the strength of other heavenly fires. The direction of the flame meant that it felt the heavenly fire in that direction was stronger.
“What a surprise,” Xia qingchen was slightly astonished.
Almost everyone thought that Fang Yuan’s heavenly flame was weaker, but in fact, his heavenly flame was stronger.
All the gamblers at this table had lost.
“Anyone else? We’ll start the bet in ten breaths!” The dealer looked around at the crowd and asked.
Xia qingchen thought for a moment and went up to ask, “”Is there a limit to the stakes?”
