The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 503 The First Challenge

"This place, The Big Dipper, it's magical. Within these walls reside many remarkable individuals. The Divine Star, the master of The Big Dipper, doesn't give a hoot about the eight families because he's got the might to back it up!" Lily explained.

"I know The Divine Star is powerful, but what I want to see today is whether you, country boy, have the chops. Can you get me an audience with The Divine Star?" she challenged.

As she spoke, Lily pulled out her Louis Vuitton wallet from her matching bag and handed Danny a crisp hundred-dollar bill. His expression a mix of confusion and surprise, Danny stared at her, asking, "Lily, what's this about?"

"This is your starting stake for getting through The Big Dipper today," she declared.

"My stake? Just a hundred bucks?" he asked incredulously.

"Exactly!" Lily nodded, looking dead serious. "If you're as capable as you think, you should be able to use that hundred to get me a meeting with The Divine Star. If not, even a hundred billion wouldn't get you through the door."

"You're testing my abilities with a hundred bucks? No matter how capable I am, that price is just too low for me to do anything," Danny said, feigning indignation.

"Country boy, what the heck are you blabbering about?" Lily asked, pressing for clarity.

"What nonsense are you spouting, Lily? I’m just riffing off what you're saying," Danny countered with a smirk.

"Stop being inappropriate!" Lily scolded.

"Inappropriate? Pretty sure it’s you who's being improper, asking if I can 'perform.' Why don’t we find a night to test that out, huh?" he teased.

"Beat it!" Lily snapped, giving him a stern look. "Idiot, if you keep this up, I swear I'll tell Jessica. If she finds out how you're flirting with me, she'll tear you apart!"

"So your solution is to snitch to Jessica? Can't you handle this yourself?" Danny shot back.

"Fine! I'll handle it," Lily retorted.
