Chapter 127: The Bet

  Han Jin pushed open the door with a mixture of laughter and tears, at the same time, the candles inside the house also went out. Even though Xian Ni'er had been through countless brutal battles, she was still a girl after all, and in this situation, there was no way she would appear in front of everyone.

  However, Moshenke would not know what Xian Ni'er was thinking at this moment. Seeing only Han Jin appearing alone, he had already made preparations to escape and clearly let out a sigh of relief. If it were Han Jin who took the lead, the two of them would at most engage in a fistfight, which Moshenke was not afraid of. But Xian Ni'er was different - the arrow of a high-ranking Hunter was always an existence that inspired terror, no matter when.

  "Mo Xinkē, you're getting bolder and bolder, aren't you? You're even daring to make a bet with me and Xiāng Nièr!" Hàn Jìn glared at Mo Xinkē with an unpleasant tone. Originally, the atmosphere between him and Xiāng Nièr was very harmonious, but it was all ruined by Mo Xinkē's sudden outburst, how could he not be annoyed?

  Looking at Han Jin's cold expression, Mo Xinkai smiled awkwardly: "It was just a joke, you won't really take it to heart, will you?"

  "How could that be?" Han Jin chuckled, his expression seemingly carefree, but his words carried a deeper meaning: "Of course, I wouldn't take it to heart, but women can be quite vengeful at times."

  Moxinke's face turned slightly bitter, but he still held onto a glimmer of hope and said: "Xian Ni'er isn't an ordinary woman, she's a great and sacred spirit! She shouldn't care about such a small matter, right?"

  "Now that you're speaking nicely, don't you think it's a bit late?" Han Jin felt somewhat helpless. Mo Xinkuo's flattery was really not up to par, giving people a scalp-numbing feeling.

  "I'm telling you it's a fact!" Moskvin exclaimed, trying to calm himself down: "Rafael. Don't you think so?"

  "Never mind, I won't talk to you about these things." Han Jin said nonchalantly, as if Mo Xinkuo's attempt to catch his verbal slip-up with such a childish method was simply a pipe dream: "What did you just call me? Big sister? What's going on tonight?"

  Mo Xinkai's face changed instantly, he also knew that the last sentence he shouted earlier was a big taboo, and he wanted to just downplay it, but Han Jin actually brought it up again, his intentions were really too vicious!

  "Mo Xinkuo, don't be with me for these few days, I don't want to get mistakenly hurt." Han Jin said softly.

  "But..." Mo Xinke was about to say something, when he heard a few sounds of bowstrings being plucked coming from Xian Ni'er's room. In the quiet night, this sound seemed exceptionally cold and eerie. Even Mo Xinke's heart felt chilled.

  Sitting in the darkness, Xian Ni'er had a mischievous smile at the corner of her mouth. The bowstring in her hand was still slightly trembling. Suddenly, she discovered a very strange problem. Since when did she also start to follow Han Jin and tease others together? In the past, such things were simply unimaginable. However, this feeling was actually quite good. Xian Ni'er smiled.

  Hearing the movement coming from inside the house, Han Jin's heart also put down. A smile appeared on his lips. Since Xian Ni'er could cooperate with him to tease people, it proved that her mood had calmed down a lot.

  "What were you two betting on just now?" Han Jin saw Sasou sneaking out of the courtyard and asked.

  Hearing Han Jin's words, Sasou had to stop in his tracks. He turned around and dryly laughed: "It's nothing much. Just a small matter."

  "'Small matter?' Before Han Jin could say anything, Mo Xinkai glared at him: 'If it's a small matter, then let's just cancel the bet, how about that?'"

  "How can that be?" Sasou was anxious as soon as he heard it. He glanced at Han Jin beside him and slowed down his tone: "A real man, willing to gamble and admit defeat, how can you go back on your word?"

  "I don't regret it." Mo Xinke's smile at this moment looked extremely sinister in Sasou's eyes.

  "Everyone is here, Sasori, you can loudly announce our bet, so I think it's impossible to back down now." Moshike seemed to glance unintentionally at the house where Xanier was in, and intentionally raised his voice: "Anyway, it wasn't me who proposed it, what am I afraid of?"

  "Sas...ou" Sasou felt a bit dizzy, didn't expect Mosiko to have learned this move too. Who said this guy was brainless before?

  Looking at Sasuke's troubled expression, Maito Gai became even more confident. People are like that sometimes; no matter how miserable they've been, if they see someone else who is even more miserable than themselves, their heart will feel much better.

  Sasseur glared at Mo Xinke, who was standing there with a smug expression, as if saying "I knew you wouldn't dare". Anger welled up inside him, and he thought to himself, "You're not being reasonable, so don't blame me for being unreasonable too. At most, we'll all perish together."

  Cleared his throat, Sasuke put on a brave face and said: "At the beginning, I said that you wouldn't be able to come out within two hours. Mochizuki didn't believe me, so we made a bet."

  Hearing this, Han Jin's heart put down a bit, thinking that if it was just like this, then there was nothing to worry about. However, looking at Sasou's expression, he knew that things were far from over, so he asked: "Then what?"

  "Then two hours passed and you didn't come out. Of course, Mo Xinkuo lost, but he was not reconciled to defeat, saying that if you waited another hour, you would definitely be able to come out."

  Moxinke felt something was wrong and hastily interrupted, "Alright, Sasou, I admit defeat. Let's go back and not disturb Xianier's rest."

  Sasseur glanced at Mo Xinkou and thought, now you know to admit defeat? I'm unlucky, don't think you'll be better off!

  "I gave him another chance, betting that you still wouldn't come out in an hour. Another hour passed and you still didn't come out. This guy was already dizzy from losing, so he proposed a suggestion to continue betting with me."

  "Sasou, please don't say that, isn't doubling the bet enough?" Moshiko's expression had turned into a pleading one, and he even looked like he wanted to rush over and cover Sasou's mouth.

  Lei Zhe's figure suddenly appeared beside Mo Xingke, grasping his arm. With a look of being afraid that the world would not be chaotic enough, he said: "Mo Xingke, can't you act like a man? Didn't you let Sasou speak earlier? Why are you stopping him now?"

  Mo Xinkedu almost fainted, how come he didn't notice before that Lei Zhe was also so gossipy? Listening to him talk, it's clear that this kid has been lurking on the side listening for a long time.

  Sasou's mouth opened again, and Moshiko was powerless to stop it. He couldn't help but close his eyes in pain, thinking that this time he was done for.

  Sasuke had already made up his mind to go all out. Now, even if Xanthe walked out of the house, he couldn't stop himself from speaking: "Moshenke said that you absolutely won't spend the night in the house because Xanthe is a spirit... cough, she won't casually find a place to call her new home. You'll just be intimate for a while, then..."

  With a whooshing sound, a sharp arrow broke through the window and interrupted Sasou's words.

  It turned out that the magician also had a fairly agile reaction at times. Sasu thought he hadn't even thought about it, and then gave himself a magical shield, and rushed straight to the courtyard door.

  After the first arrow flew out of the house, there was an obvious temporary pause, as if considering who to shoot next. At this time, Sasou had already run to the gate, while Moxinke was still standing in place waiting for death.

  Very soon, the people in the house made a choice. The second arrow was heading straight for Moxinke's face, and the cold wind of the arrow made Moxinke suddenly open his eyes. His instinctive reaction made him quickly shrink his neck, and the sharp arrow flew past his head skin. Moxinke couldn't help but feel a chill on his back, it seemed that Xian Ni'er was really angry.

  At this time, Mo Xinkuo suddenly discovered that Lei Zhe, who had been holding his arm all the while, was nowhere to be seen. Upon closer inspection, he saw that Lei Zhe had already moved to a corner where he couldn't be attacked. Moreover, what made Mo Xinkuo even angrier was that Han Jin had also stood there, and both of them had an expression as if they were watching a show.

  Just as Mosinke was pondering whether to escape or what to do, the people in the house seemed to have made up their minds. Arrows flew out one after another, with angles that were extremely tricky and targets all pointing at Mosinke.

  Moxinkei let out a strange cry, and his body ignited with intense fighting spirit. He ran towards the nearest courtyard wall, as it was impossible to leave through the door under current circumstances. Becoming either crippled or a porcupine were not outcomes Moxinkei wanted to see.

  Perhaps it was because Xian Ni'er didn't use her full strength, the arrow lost its power after penetrating Mo Xinke's protective aura slightly. However, Mo Xinke didn't dare to be careless and ran to the wall of the courtyard at his fastest speed in life, jumping high into the air.

  Mo Xinkai's hands had already reached the top of the wall, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. As long as he could get over this wall, he would be safe. No matter how skilled Xian Ni'er was, her arrows wouldn't be able to make a turn in mid-air.

  But the next moment, a scene that left everyone stunned appeared. A sturdy wooden man suddenly appeared on the wall, and although he didn't make any attack, his timing was too perfect. For Mo Xing at this moment, the short courtyard wall instantly became an insurmountable mountain.

  Time seemed to have stopped at this moment, Mo Xin Ke stared foolishly at the wooden man in front of him, his heart filled with a hundred emotions. You damned Raphael, how could you do this to me?

  Moxinke was so shocked that he didn't even notice how much he looked like a giant target stuck on the wall.

  Xian Ni Er's house was still pitch black, standing outside couldn't see her at all, only the sound of bowstrings kept ringing out, those arrows shot towards Mo Xin Ke one after another like lightning.

  Although it was a shot with resentment, Xanier also knew the weight of her actions. The arrow only pierced through Mosinke's clothes and deeply into the earth wall, she didn't take aim at Mosinke's body.

  Although Moxinke was not injured, the cold arrowhead's feeling of passing close to his body still made him palpitate. Moxinke let out a loud cry and jumped up like a rabbit that had been shot, but after a few whizzing sounds, several large holes were torn in his clothes and pants, revealing the muscles underneath. However, Moxinke was no longer concerned about losing face, quickly avoiding the wooden man, changing direction and flipping over the wall.

  Sasou in the distance heard Mo Xinko's cry and couldn't help but tremble, his footsteps quickening by a lot, feeling grateful in his heart.

  Lei Zhe's mouth opened wide as he looked at the wooden man on the wall and then at the fluttering strips of cloth in the air, wanting to say something but unable to utter a word.

  Han Jin smiled and said in a low voice: "Getting angry is bad for the body, she has to find a place to vent somehow, right?"

  I made a promise to Xiaoxiao sister in the group, I would definitely update before 12 o'clock today, but... didn't make it, embarrassing! Although it was only a few minutes late, time has passed and I admit, I'm guilty...
