"Hm?"
Perfected One Qinghua turned to look at Nagiko. He froze for several seconds before saying haltingly, "You're asking me? I quit gambling ages ago. Didn't you know?"
"I know." Perfected One Nagiko nodded. "You've quit for a whole week. It's time for a cheat day. You can't quit every single day, can you?"
Perfected One Qinghua frowned, seemingly lost in thought. She seemed to have a point...
Who said quitting had to mean quitting every day?
But could it count as quitting if he didn't quit every day?
After pondering for a while, he shook his head sharply. "Stop trying to sucker me in. I don't want to win my losses back anymore."
"We won't wager any of the things you lost to me," Perfected One Nagiko said slowly. "Let's go big this time!"
"What?" Perfected One Qinghua asked curiously.
Perfected One Nagiko said, "Let's wager the right to inherit the Yang Earth Great Dao. If Yue Wen doesn't take first place in this Dragon Gate Tournament, I'll withdraw from the competition. If he does, you withdraw. How about it?"
"What?!" Perfected One Qinghua repeated the same word, but with completely different emphasis and tone.
Although Perfected One Nagiko had said they would go big, he had never imagined she meant this big!
The right to inherit a Great Dao was what they craved most. For the past decade or so, the two of them had competed openly and in secret for this one chance to become a Dao Lord. It was the source of all their conflicts.
In a struggle for the Great Dao, there could be no reconciliation!
The two of them had actually shown considerable restraint. Without their ties to the sect holding them back, they probably would have fought to the death long ago.
