Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL]-Chapter 199: Unreasonable Accusation
Chapter 199: Unreasonable Accusation
On the third floor, Zhen Yuan and Shen Xu picked twelve stones.
When Zhao Fei saw this, she couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow in question.
"Aren’t you afraid of losing spirit stones?" She asked.
After all, it was a known fact that only a few stones contained worthwhile treasures.
Even if the hall of stones had overhauled its stock, it was too much to expect that any random stone contained a valuable treasure.
"My luck has always been good. I am hoping that I will win more than I lose." Shen Xu said in a careless voice.
Zhao Fei was shocked when she heard this.
She didn’t expect the double to have such a careless attitude.
However, this was none of her business.
Although she and the couple were acquainted, they weren’t friends.
In the end, she kept quiet and soon followed the two to the fourth floor
The fourth floor had less than one thousand stones.
However, their quality was several times higher than those on the third floor.
[There is a good stone.] Zhen Yuan said and Shen Xu couldn’t help but be excited.
[Same quality as the one on the first floor?] He asked.
[No.] Zhen Yuan said and quickly continued.
[Although the quality is not that high, it’s a good thing. I don’t know what it is but I feel it’s suitable for me.]
Shen Xu was more excited when he heard this.
It was rare to encounter something that was suitable for Zhen Yuan.
Now that they had, Shen Xu was determined to get it.
[Which one is it?] He asked in an eager voice.
[The ninth stone on the second row.]
[Okay.]
After that, Shen Xu manipulated their movements and finally got the stone.
"Alchemist Yuan, the stones on the fourth floor are more than one hundred thousand and less than one million spirit stones." Zhao Fei reminded.
"Don’t worry." Shen Xu chuckled.
If he ran out of spirit stones, he would rather return the stones they collected on the other floors that miss the stone that was compatible with Zhen Yuan.
Thinking of this, Shen Xu wanted to directly pay for the stone and hide it in the Chaos Flame Space.
However, Zhen Yuan didn’t let him so they continued looking around.
On this floor, Zhao Fei picked two stones and the couple picked nine.
Soon after, the three went to the third floor.
Unexpectedly, after entering the hall of stones, most people rushed to the fifth floor.
As a result, the fifth floor had the least stones but the most people.
"It seems everyone has some expectations of the stones on the fifth floor." Shen Xu said and Zhao Fei nodded.
"Many cultivators have previously found good things on the fifth floor. It’s no wonder that most people rushed here when the hall of stones opened."
"I don’t know if we are too late..." Shen Xu muttered while looking around.
[Brother Yuan, do you see a good stone.]
[I...] Zhen Yuan started but a voice suddenly interrupted his words.
"Feifei, alchemist Yuan, formation master Xu, why are you together?" A male cultivator asked, his eyes narrowed into slits.
Seeing the person, Shen Xu sighed before speaking.
"Fourth young master Tan." He greeted and quickly continued.
"My partner and I met fellow Daoist Zhao on the third floor."
"Is that true?" Tan Cheng asked, looking at Zhao Fei.
Zhao Fei frowned when she heard the question and saw the look.
She didn’t understand why this matter needed her confirmation.
Even if she and Tan Cheng were engaged, it didn’t mean he could control her movements and interactions.
"Tan Cheng, what do you mean?" She asked in an angry voice.
"I..." Tan Cheng started but couldn’t continue.
Although Zhao Fei was his fiancée, she was not yet qualified to know the secret workings of the Tan family.
Most importantly, Yuan Shen and Xu Zhen were there.
How could he warn Zhao Fei against them without affecting the important business of the Tan family?
When Tan Cheng was at a loss, a female voice resounded.
"Zhao Fei, how can you be so ungrateful?" The voice said.
When everyone turned to look, they saw a female cultivator in yellow clothes.
’It’s her.’ Shen Xu thought.
When he and Zhen Yuan first arrived in Formation Tower City, they encountered the female cultivator at the city gate.
At that time, the woman called them bumpkins before entering the city.
"Guan Ying, what are you talking about?" Zhao Fei asked and a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes.
The Zhao and Guan families were among the four prominent families in Formation Tower city.
Originally, Zhao Fei and Guan Ying were friends.
However, their friendship ended when Zhao Fei was chosen as Tan Cheng’s fiancée.
’I didn’t even want him.’ Zhao Fei thought and couldn’t help but feel aggrieved.
"Fourth young master Tan is worried that you will be deceived." Guan Ying said and proudly raised her chin.
"Deceived? Guan Ying, can you say something that makes sense?"
"Zhao Fei, you are too naive." Guan Ying said and quickly continued.
"These two are Taoist partners but since when do men marry doubles as main wives? Isn’t it clear that this bumpkin is eyeing you?"
Zhao Fei was shocked and couldn’t believe her ears.
Simultaneously, Shen Xu looked at Guan Ying and wondered if she was in her right mind.
After all, this pot came too suddenly and too unreasonably.
’How did she arrive at such nonsense?’ He wondered and unconsciously looked at Zhen Yuan.
Zhen Yuan didn’t expect to accompany his wife to pick gambling stones only to end up with such an unreasonable charge.
"Miss, people can eat whatever they want but they can’t speak nonsense. See a healer if you are sick. Don’t come out to disgust normal people." He said, shocking several people.
However, he wasn’t done.
"This matter will not end here if you don’t explain yourself." He said and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
How could he allow an irrelevant cultivator to look down on his wife?
Other doubles may be pitiful but his Shen Xu was a proud and incomparable treasure.
