Impossible, impossible, impossible! How could the little lady have completed this yellow-rank immobilization talisman with such extraordinary speed?
Her gaze landed on Qiao Mu’s hand, and she screeched, “Her pen! Her talisman pen! There’s something fishy with her talisman pen! This talisman pen must be able to increase her speed and success rate!!”
Qiao Mu had already put the talisman pen away in her inner world. She looked up and said nonchalantly, “How laughable. You didn’t say before the compet.i.tion to bar personal equipment.”
Jiang Hong felt her brain buzz, like she was about to faint.
“Y-You cheated, you cheated with your talisman pen!”
!!
“Are you dumb!” Qiao Mu glanced at her and said, “Good equipment equates cheating? Don’t be pestering me with your nonsense and bring over the wager. You can scram now.”
After all this babbling, Qiao Mu was already very annoyed.
She grunted and looked at the shopkeeper.
The latter immediately took the hint and picked up the brocade box with the jade talisman matrix. He walked quickly over to Qiao Mu.
Just as Qiao Mu reached for it, Jiang Hong flew over in a frenzy and shouted, “No, no! You cannot take away my jade talisman matrix! I’m not wagering this jade talisman matrix…”
“Scram!” Qiao Mu was infuriated, and promptly kicked away the pouncing Jiang Hong.
Jiang Hong tumbled on the ground twice and crashed into a nearby cabinet. She pounded the ground angrily while lying there pitifully. “B*tch, how dare you s.n.a.t.c.h away my jade talisman matrix! My Jiang Clan won’t let you off. I will also file a report with the Talisman Pract.i.tioner a.s.sociation and inform the president of all your wrongdoing… ah!”
Before she could finish talking, a streak of fire had already swept her out the door.
Jiang Hong crashed outside heavily. Her innards shook, and she even vomited blood. However, it was unknown whether this was because of Mo Lian’s attack or because of her anger.
Mo Lian shook his head as he swept a look of contempt at the woman whom he had swept out the door with the fire spirit. “You’re already so old, yet you still don’t understand what it means to accept a loss graciously.”
She was simply stupid and petty!
“She had thought that she would win as a matter of course. Yet who knew that she would lose so easily. She’s just unconvinced. Don’t bother with her.”
No one had the nerve to go back on their words after losing to her!
Qiao Mu pursed her lips and carried that brocade box over to the smiling fire spirit specialty mentor from Jiaqing Academy.
“Here.”
“Thank you.” The fire spirit specialty mentor then handed over the two dragon fang souls, the nameless jade, and the myraid glaze stone to Qiao Mu.
Qiao Mu nodded and had Mo Lian put them away. She then turned around and prepared to leave with Mo Lian.
Old Talisman Pract.i.tioner Song called out to her and asked with a smile, “This young great master, please wait.”
“Has the young great master joined the Talisman Pract.i.tioner a.s.sociation?”
“Anyi Prefecture’s Talisman Pract.i.tioner a.s.sociation may just be a small branch, but, but after joining, you can learn talisman techniques systematically. This is a valuable opportunity. Additionally, joining will give you discounts when purchasing blank talisman paper in talisman shops! If the young great master is interested…”
Qiao Mu waved her hand. “I do not need to at the moment. Thank you for your kindness.”
A crowd of people surged forth and surronded the young couple, talking all at once.
