In the Stone City, inside a majestic building, a smart big guy ran with quick steps into the side hall.
An old man who looked to be in his 50s sat up straight in the hall with an enchanting woman in his arms. He lowered his head and caressed the woman's bosom when the big sized man ran in. His face immediately filled with anger as he shouted, "Huang San, if you cannot give me a reason for disturbing me at this time, then prepare to go and receive your punishment!"
"Third Master, we just found a betting slip. It's a betting slip of thirty-three thousand cultivation coins."
Huang San panickily said to the old man, but intentionally or unintentionally, he glanced at the enchanting sensual woman in the old man's embrace and his eyes burned with fire. But under the old man's reproach, his entire body shivered, and he quickly retracted his gaze.
"What's wrong with a betting slip of thirty-three thousand cultivation coins? How big is it?" The old man said gloomily.
"Third Master, that betting slip was bought Bai Mei of Bai Family. Thirty-three thousand cultivation coins. All the profits we made this time aren't enough to compensate."
Huang San's face immediately became dejected. Who would have thought that Bai Mei from Bai Family would actually enter the top four? Yet they accepted a betting slip of tens of thousands of cultivation coins. Thinking about the betting rate for Bai Mei from Bai Family, his head couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Hearing Huang San's words, the old man's face also changed greatly. He stood up straight and almost threw the enchanting woman who was sitting on his legs onto the ground, and said anxiously, "Did you find out who bet? Quickly find out!"
?I've got it. I took the list myself. Because it's a betting slip that bought Mai Mei from Bai Family, I remember it very clearly. He was a person wearing a cloak and his appearance could not be seen clearly. But from the sound of him, that person should be young, probably very young. " Huang San said with certainty.
"A very young voice; wearing a cloak. Is he here to convert?"
The old man asked with a gloomy expression. A cold light flashed across his eyes. It was unknown what he was thinking.
"He hasn't come to convert yet. We just found a betting slip like that." Huang San replied.
"Since he hasn?t converted yet, he shouldn't be someone from our Stone City. Then don't blame us for being impolite."
The old man raised his head, his eyes gleaming with a cold light. He looked at Huang San, made a throat slitting gesture and said, "You should know how to arrange. When that person comes to convert, you must?."
"Third Master, I know what to do. I will definitely take care of it cleanly and not leave any future troubles."
It seemed not to be the first time that Huang San had done such a thing. After nodding, and sweeping a glance at the enchanting woman again, he reluctantly left the side hall.
The next morning, the first rays of the morning sun had awakened the vitality of the earth.
"Hu!"
Du Shaofu spat out a mouthful of impure Qi and his sat cross-legged as he stretched his body. His joints crackled as though they contained an endless amount of energy.
"I'll be going to cultivate in the lightning pool in Ye Family tomorrow. I'll have to go and collect my debt today."
Du Shaofu stood up with a smile on his face. After washing his face and brushing his mouth, he left the Du Family.
Within the Stone City, Treasure Coming Firm could be considered a rather well-known merchant. It was also one of the betting shops for the competition among the younger generation of the five families.
The morning glow rose from the middle of the sky in Stone City. A person wearing a purple robe and a cape that covered his face appeared outside of the store. Raising his head, he looked at the signboard of the store, and then, he strode towards the interior of Treasure Coming Firm.
As this person entered Treasure Coming Firm, the eyes of many in the firm began to twinkle.
"Convert betting slip." The purple-robed figure placed a betting slip on the counter and looked at a shrewd middle-aged man standing behind the counter as he spoke.
Receiving the betting slip from the counter, Huang San's eyes flashed without leaving a trace. He then received the betting slip and said, "Congratulations, the odds on this betting slip are extremely high. Please follow me to the inner courtyard to convert."
"Alright."
The purple-robed figure nodded and followed Huang San to the inner courtyard.
"Quick, close the door."
As the purple-robed figure entered the inner courtyard, several figures rushed out from Treasure Coming Firm and closed the door. Every one of their eyes revealed an ominous glint.
"You aren't from Stone City, are you?"
In the inner courtyard, which was not a narrow courtyard, Huang San suddenly turned his head, looking at the cloaked man dressed in purple, smiled and asked.
?Do this have anything to do with converting the betting slip? I made a total of thirty-three thousand cultivation coins and Bai Mei from Bai Family finally entered the top four. According to the odds, it should be one hundred and sixty times. So, there is a total of five million two hundred eighty thousand cultivation coins. Hurry up and convert it for me. I still have things to do.? The purple-robed figure's expression could not be seen because of the cloak but his voice sounded very young.
Hearing the gigantic sum, Huang San's face could not help but twitch.
Who would have thought that with the cultivation level of Bai Mei from Bai Family, she would actually be able to make herself into the top four? This was simply an inconceivable thing. And it was said that Bai Mei seemed to have a deep relationship with Du Shaofu, who was in the Du Family. Under Du Shaofu's protection, Bai Mei was able to enter the top four.
Thinking about that, Huang San wanted to exterminate Du Shaofu from Du Family. If not for Du Shaofu, how could Treasure Coming Firm have suffered such heavy losses?
However, Huang San knew very well about his own strength. Let alone how weak he was to Du Shaofu, Du Shaofu was also a person in Du Family so the Treasure Coming Firm could not afford to offend him. Even the Heavenly Spirit Demon Hunting Squad behind the Treasure Coming Firm could not.
"What betting slip? I don't understand your words at all."
After his face back to normal, Huang San's eyes revealed a cold smile. He had nothing to do with Du Shaofu, but he was not afraid of the person in front of him. And this was not the first time that he had done this. Back then, when he was in the Heavenly Spirit Demon Hunting Squad, many lives of humans and Demon Beasts ended at his hands.
The purple-robed figure under the cloak raised his head. Huang San could feel two sharp and terrifying gazes under the cloak.
"You mean you don't want to convert? I'll give you one last chance. Don't regret it." The voice behind the cloak had also become a lot colder.
"Haha, ?regret?. Aside from the Five Great Families, who else would we be afraid of in this Stone City?"
Huang San laughed out loud. Other than the Five Great Families, who else would they be afraid of within the Stone City? Moreover, they even had a backer in the Five Great Families. Otherwise how could Treasure Coming Firm stand firmly in Stone City, which was controlled by the Five Great Families.
The laughter disappeared and Huang San's eyes flashed with a cold light. With a wave of his hand, he shouted, "Do it!"
"Swoosh swoosh!"
As Huang San's words fell, no less than twenty figures immediately leapt out from every corner of the courtyard. With murderous intent in their eyes, they instantly formed a fan-shape to trap the purple-robed figure inside.
