Chapter 1442 - Kneel and Bark
No one felt even a shred of sympathy for the Divine Alchemy Sect's trio. Cultivators from the Spirit Martial Astral Domain scrambled to cozy up to Liu Wuxie instead and even began pressuring the Divine Alchemy Sect.
Those who had already signed purchase orders with the Divine Alchemy Sect started canceling them outright, willingly forfeiting their deposits to turn and side with the Heavenly Dao Society.
Forces from the Indigo Bamboo Astral Domain quickly joined the outcry as well. They hated Feng He and his two disciples to the bone. If not for those three, the Heavenly Dao Society's pills wouldn't have become famous so quickly, and the other sects would still have managed to make at least a few sales.
Now, every customer was rushing toward the Heavenly Dao Society's booth and couldn't even be bothered to glance at anyone else's wares. Naturally, everyone vented all that frustration on the Divine Alchemy Sect.
"Kneel and bark!" the Nine Dragon Palace's disciples yelled, jeering loudly as they urged the trio to fulfill their side of the bet. They had never seen an Earth Immortal kneel and bark like a dog before and were eager for the spectacle.
"That's right! Kneel! A loss is a loss!" more people shouted, adding their voices to the chorus pressing Feng He and the two disciples to honor the wager. Thousands of cultivators took up the cry, and the pressure became so overwhelming that the Heavenly Dao Society's people didn't even need to say another word.
"Liu Wuxie, can we end this here? Our Divine Alchemy Sect is willing to acknowledge our loss. As long as you can forgo the bet, we can agree to any condition you name," Feng He said at last, bowing his head in humiliation.
"No," Liu Wuxie replied, his voice cold and decisive. He slowly raised his right hand and pointed toward the sky, ready to summon heavenly tribulation.
Once that tribulation descended, it would reduce the trio to ashes; even if they survived, inner demons would chain them for the rest of their lives, as they had sworn their oath with their souls.
The Divine Alchemy Sect would never show him mercy if he were the loser.
"Liu Wuxie, we won't kneel and bark like dogs even in death!" Zhang Li snarled. In his mind, if they knelt today, the Divine Alchemy Sect wouldn't be able to sell another pill in the Indigo Bamboo Astral Domain ever again.
Who would still trust the pills from a sect whose elder had kneeled and barked like a dog in public?
