Semua Bab Oops, I've Been Exposed: Bab 491 - Bab 500

This was odd. Last time, the mercenaries killed all the priests and pretended to be the head of Starlight Avenue in order to kidnap Logan.Next to Woody, Alexia frowned. She looked displeased. "The air around this place irritates me."A thousand years ago, she was defeated by a priest. Even after such a long time, she still remembered the grudge. "Would you like to go back, then?" Woody asked.Rolling her eyes at him, Alexia replied in a huff, "I'm just irritated, but I'm not afraid of them. They're just a few stinking priests. I'm not going to take it personally. Since I already made it here, I'm not going back no matter what."Then, she started walking in together with Woody.Soon after they stepped in, someone exclaimed in surprise, "Is that you, Woody?"Woody turned to the source of the voice and saw a familiar face. "Stella?" She was a beautiful and elegant woman around 30 years old. It was Stella O'Neil, Woody's senior in college who was very helpful to him back then.

Excitement pumped through Anthony after hearing that. "Are you serious?""There's no problem as long as you're sharp and have accurate judgment." Dominic looked confident as he added, "I've attended the Dragonhead Conference a few times and know the details of the contestants like the back of my hand. I guarantee you won't lose if you follow my bet."Dominic went to great lengths to show off in the presence of a beautiful woman. Unbeknownst to him, Alexia didn't hear a single word he said and was observing the scenery with interest instead."We'll let you take the lead today, Dom!" Anthony couldn't wait for the event to start. "When will the Dragonhead Conference begin? How are we getting in?"Stella was looking forward to it, too, but she wasn't interested in winning money. Instead, today was a real treat for her because she didn't have the opportunity before this to have any contact with ancient martial artists. Dominic was highly satisfied with their reactions and couldn't h

Back then, Helen had asked Woody why he didn't ask the priest for his name. In reply, Woody said that they'd meet again if they were fated to, so there was no need to ask.Unexpectedly, they met again so soon. However, it was odd to Woody that the priest was now the high priest of Starlight Avenue.The priests at the entrance went forward and explained what was happening. After hearing them, the high priest said with a frown, "Everyone, are you here to watch the Dragonhead Conference?""Yes, we came a long way from the city. After making it all the way up the mountain, we were not allowed into the inner court. Why is there such a regulation? If you aren't going to let us in, you should've made an announcement beforehand and saved us the trip.""This place is so secluded. If not for the conference, we wouldn't be here late in the evening. We'd have gone ahead with other plans."Seeing how disgruntled everyone was, the high priest couldn't help but frown. Then, he caught sight of Wo

Making an embarrassing mistake, Dominic said awkwardly, "I hear the duels happening ahead. Come on, let's go quickly, or we'll miss the interesting parts."Anthony took the chance to flatter him again. "You're great, Dom! How could you hear that when we're so far away? That's what I'd expect of a highly skilled ancient martial artist. Regular people like us can't hear anything at all!""It's just a basic skill that's not worth mentioning," Dominic answered pretentiously.Soon, they arrived at the fighting arenas. The place, which spanned across an area of 2.5 acres, was now packed with people.In the middle stood a round arena with a diameter of about a hundred feet. Built out of a huge bluestone cut into shape, the arena rose five feet in height and looked rather magnificent with four relic statues on four sides.The raucous sound from the people suggested that there were at least 3000 people in the place. It explained why Gen instructed the entrance to be blocked; there were sim

"That's generous of you, Dom! Unlike some guy who has no consideration for others. He should just admit that he's skipping the game because he's poor."Clearly, Anthony had it out with Woody. Never mind his shameless attempt to butter up Dominic, but he put Woody down while praising Dominic, which was a despicable act."The odds are so low that it's pointless." Even Alexia couldn't tolerate them and sneered, "Ignorant people are the only ones who will make a big deal out of it."Again, Anthony turned red with embarrassment. Although Dominic was slightly embarrassed, he pretended not to care and said, "To each of their own. I'm not going to push you, Ms. Popp. Since you don't like this, let's watch the duel first. Whenever you feel like placing a bet later, just say the word." He believed that there was no woman in this world who could say no to money. Once he made a few wins and proved himself right, he was sure that would change Alexia's opinion of him.Then, he could use this o
