Of course, apart from the Three Pure Ones, when the surrounding creatures came to watch the fun, Kunpeng, Minghe, and the others who cared about their reputation also obviously felt a little more pressure.
Perhaps this was the idol halo and celebrity effect of the Primordial World. While being famous, one had to be careful with their words and actions and accept the supervision of the public.
Therefore, the atmosphere under the gourd vine was a little strange.
These mighty figures all wanted the Xiantian Gourd, but due to various reasons, none of them took the initiative to ask for it.
"Since this opportunity is limited, I'll voluntarily withdraw so that your opportunities can be higher.”
On the other side, Ye Xiao saw that the situation had entered a stalemate. He smiled slightly and stood up, looking carefree and indifferent.
Instantly, all the mighty figures and surrounding living beings present were surprised.
The Innate Gourd formed by the Innate Spiritual Roots was an extraordinary treasure no matter how one looked at it. Ye Xiao actually said that he wanted to quit?
Was he stupid?
Ye Xiao was the first to arrive, and he was also the favorite of Dao Ancestor. Whether it was by chance or status, he had the right to choose first.
Even the Three Pure Ones wouldn't go past Ye Xiao to snatch it.
Especially in a situation where there were many living beings watching, even the Three Pure Ones had to keep their face.
Moreover, for these mighty figures, besides considering the way they ate, they also had to consider karma.
In their eyes, going past Ye Xiao to snatch the opportunity was karma.
Therefore, even though Ye Xiao said so, the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and Fuxi did not move at all.
Donghuang Taiyi was impatient and wanted to make a move, but he was held back by his brother, Dijun.
Dijun, who was deep in thought, felt that things would not be so simple. He did not believe that Ye Xiao would give up a fruit with Innate Spiritual Roots so easily.
Moreover, even if Ye Xiao was sincere in giving in, the two brothers couldn't make the first move. After all, apart from karma, Emperor Jun understood the principle of shooting the bird that took the lead.
Therefore, after looking at each other for a while and no one made a move, it was Tai Qing Lao Zi who spoke,"Junior Brother Ye Xiao, first come, first served.
Since you're the first to arrive, you can choose first.
I'll wait for you to choose before distributing them.”
Since Tai Qing had spoken, Heavenly Lord Yuanshi and Tongtian naturally agreed. Goddess Nvywa, Fuxi, Hongyun Zhenyuanzi, and the others also nodded in agreement.
Especially after Taiqing Laozi called Ye Xiao his junior brother, Taiyi, Emperor Jun, and Kunpeng nodded in agreement.
Apparently, the Three Pure Ones had taken Ye Xiao, who was personally bestowed by the Dao Ancestor, as the seventh direct disciple of the Dao Ancestor, their junior brother.
Under such circumstances, no one would stand out.
Although Ye Xiao didn't admit that he was Hongjun's disciple, he didn't object to Tai Qing's words.
After all, it would be easier for Ye Xiao to cause trouble if the situation developed.
"In that case, I'll choose the seventh gourd that hasn't matured yet.
After all, there are only seven of these innate gourds. It is already a symbol of glory to be able to get one. This poor priest's luck is shallow, so I dare not ask for more.”
Ye Xiao sighed as if he couldn't argue with Tai Qing and the others.
When they heard that Ye Xiao had chosen the seventh uncooked calabash, some of the mighty figures present were stunned, while others secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
As for the surrounding living beings, they were all dumbfounded!
Was this Ye Xiao really stupid or was he just pretending?
Obviously, no one expected Ye Xiao to choose an immature gourd when he had the freedom to choose!
One had to know that the growth of the gourd vine was nearing its end. The seventh gourd did not have enough nutrients and was destined to not have a chance to mature.
It could even be said that he might become a useless gourd.
Yet, Ye Xiao had chosen such a congenitally deficient gourd. How could they not be shocked?
Not to mention Emperor Jun and Kunpeng, even Hongyun and Goddess Nvywa almost couldn't react.
At the next moment, Hongyun nodded and praised,""Fellow Daoist Ye Xiao's courtesy and humility are really admirable!”
Nuwa, the Three Pure Ones, and the others nodded in agreement.
Hongyun, Nvywa, and the Three Pure Ones thought that Ye Xiao was being modest, but they didn't know that Ye Xiao was laughing in his heart.
They didn't know that the seventh immature gourd was the Chaos Gourd. Compared to the six mature gourds, it had a much deeper foundation!
Even if it was not ripe, it was still one of the seven gourds with extraordinary effects.
Moreover, the original intention of being immature was that there were still endless possibilities!
Ye Xiao chose the immature Chaos Gourd, which was a huge gain!
On the one hand, it made all the mighty figures feel that they were noble and humble, and on the other hand, they obtained the Chaos Gourd with great potential!
Moreover, Ye Xiao, who had the system, was confident that he could make the Chaos Gourd reach true maturity!
After choosing the gourd, Ye Xiao quickly retreated to the side, looking calm and collected.
But his peripheral vision was fixed on the Three Pure Ones and the others.
Although his words seemed humble, he had actually dug a hole.
Ye Xiao had just said that there were only seven Xiantian gourds, and whoever got one would be a symbol of glory.
Ye Xiao didn't think it was glorious, but he knew that extraordinary existences like the Three Pure Ones valued their reputation very much.
They would definitely treat the gourd as a symbol of their pride.
There were only a few things in the world. Whoever obtained them would have face!
Obviously, the Three Pure Ones thought so!
Ye Xiao smiled to himself, hiding his achievements and fame.
When it comes to picking fights, I, Ye Xiao, am a professional!
