Chapter 4808: We Are Brothers, It’s Only Right

"No! A loss is a loss! You really are strong."

Bi Botao had a serious expression as he stared into Xiao Fan's eyes.

Witnessing this scene, Dong Chengji, Tu Haohao, and Lu Cheng were almost driven mad with rage.

"You… you guys! This must be fake!" Tu Haohao gritted his teeth and spoke in a low voice.

Dong Chengji and Lu Cheng had similar reactions, harshly accusing Bi Botao of losing the match on purpose.

"I didn't… You all saw the match just now. Xiao Xuan's strength is indeed very formidable," Bi Botao shook his head. "Of course, it's also because his Cultivation Technique countered mine, which is why I ultimately lost."

Tu Haohao, Dong Chengji, and the others wanted to say more, but they were interrupted by Cheng Yushi.

"Hehe… Everyone, we all witnessed the match just now with our own eyes. Everyone saw the process. What's the matter? Your person won, and yet you're not happy?" Cheng Yushi smiled.

This sentence left Dong Chengji and the others speechless.

"Hahaha… Exactly, exactly. Xiao Xuan is one of us. He won, yet you're not even happy for him!" Sha Mushi laughed loudly.

Xiao Li remained silent on the side; Xiao Fan's victory was entirely within his expectations.

"Hehehe… I just got lucky. Really, it was just luck. If there's a next time, I might not necessarily win," Xiao Fan said with a smile as he walked over to Cheng Yushi.

"Hehe… Brother Xiao Xuan, here!" Cheng Yushi handed the three storage rings in his hand to Xiao Fan.

"Thanks, much appreciated!" Xiao Fan laughed and took the storage rings belonging to Dong Chengji, Tu Haohao, and Lu Cheng.

At this sight, Dong Chengji, Tu Haohao, and Lu Cheng went completely ballistic, each one becoming hysterical.

"Xiao Xuan! Give me back my storage ring!"

"Xiao Xuan! That storage ring is mine!"

"The match just now doesn't count! There must be something wrong with it!"

"…"

"Hehe… Yours? Don't be ridiculous." Xiao Fan shook his head and spoke indifferently, "These three storage rings were the stakes. I won them from you. What? Do you want to go back on your word?!"

Dong Chengji, Tu Haohao, and Lu Cheng naturally wanted to go back on their word. Their entire net worth was in those storage rings; how could they let Xiao Fan have them so easily?!

"Hehe… Everyone, don't forget that I am the witness. If you want to go back on your word, shouldn't you ask me first?" Cheng Yushi stepped forward, a powerful aura emanating from him.

Dong Chengji, Tu Haohao, and Lu Cheng hated him so much their back teeth were nearly crushed from grinding, but they had no way out.

They were no match for Cheng Yushi, and they were currently in the Shengtian Mansion; they didn't have the standing to turn hostile… Otherwise, if they died here, even the Ghost Lord wouldn't know.

"Damn it! Let's go!" Dong Chengji gritted his teeth and turned to leave in a rage.

Lu Cheng and Tu Haohao immediately followed Dong Chengji, and the three of them left the Great Hall.

"Hahaha… Thanks, much appreciated." Xiao Fan cupped his fists toward Cheng Yushi.

"Hehehe… You're too polite. It's only right; you won these fair and square." Cheng Yushi smiled.

After a few brief words, Xiao Fan also left the Great Hall…

Xiao Li and Sha Mushi left as well, and the banquet ended on an unpleasant note.

Of course, the only ones who were unhappy were Dong Chengji, Tu Haohao, and Lu Cheng.

For a period of time afterward, Dong Chengji, Tu Haohao, and Lu Cheng were constantly thinking of ways to get revenge.

But this wasn't the Nether Ghost Mansion; even if they had an opportunity, they had no way to act on it.

The discussions between Tu Haohao, Lu Cheng, and Dong Chengji were actually under the constant surveillance of the Shengtian Mansion.

Now that Xiao Fan was considered half a member of the Shengtian Mansion, Cheng Yushi, in order to strengthen the relationship between Xiao Fan and the mansion, told him everything about the trio's discussions.

"You're saying… they plan to make a move on me on the way out?!"

In the room, Xiao Fan looked at Cheng Yushi with a look of astonishment.

"That's right." Cheng Yushi nodded. "You need to be careful later. When you leave the Shengtian Mansion, you won't be going directly back to the Nether Ghost Mansion. Instead, you'll need to go to the Ancient Burial Holy Land first, and then leave from there… Their plan is to strike at you in the Ancient Burial Holy Land."

"Alright, I understand. Thanks." Xiao Fan nodded.

"Hehehe… You're too polite. We are brothers, it's only right." Cheng Yushi smiled and told Xiao Fan to be careful.

If necessary, he could make arrangements to find an excuse for a spar before they left, heavily injuring Dong Chengji and the others so they wouldn't pose a threat to Xiao Fan.

"No need. Don't worry, I can handle them." Xiao Fan laughed.

"That's good then…" Cheng Yushi nodded, said a few more words, and then left the room.

Xiao Fan was very clear about Cheng Yushi's intention: to pull him closer to the Shengtian Mansion.

However, Xiao Fan was still curious; after he left, how was he supposed to help the Shengtian Mansion with their affairs?!

But Xiao Fan wasn't in a hurry to find out. When the time came, the Shengtian Mansion would naturally tell him…
