Gambling City Turbulence: Ten Thousand Updates

  Inside the heavenly gambling house, everyone's gaze was cast upon that high platform where the gambling stones were placed. Those unassuming stones might possibly contain treasures of the ages, making their eyes gleam with desire.

  It's a pity that I don't have enough purple gold coins in my hand to buy back a large number of gambling stones and cut them quickly.

  "I've bought this jade!"

  A gentle voice suddenly fell, and then a magnificent face appeared before everyone's eyes.

  Only to see, Nan Gong Qi Ju's eyes locked onto the gambler as he walked up to the betting stone platform, a stack of purple gold coins in his hand slapping heavily onto the table. Even though several of the purple gold coins mischievously rolled off and fell to the ground, he seemed completely unaware, giving people a feeling of being wealthy and arrogant.

  He bought this gambling stone at a high price of 90 purple gold coins, but he didn't even frown.

  Of course, in Feng Mianxue's eyes, Nan Gong Qi Yue's actions were no different from those of a nouveau riche.

  In modern times, she had never seen a truly wealthy person behave like this, except for the nouveau riche.

  "I want the smallest piece of jade!"

  Feng Mei Xue walked up with that enchanting smile, but the purple gold coin in her hand was taken out and put back repeatedly before it was finally brought out with great difficulty.

  It seems that she took out such a large sum of money, it was quite painful, so she hesitated several times before gritting her teeth and taking it out. The person in charge of receiving the purple gold coins at the front desk was also very entangled, thinking that if she took it out again and put it back, she might make him constipated.

  But thinking back, it's true that one purple gold coin represents hundreds of millions of purple stone coins, which is not something ordinary people can afford. Even if they can afford it, there aren't many people willing to spend it!

  "Oh, it's you! No money and still coming out to gamble, I think you're probably going to lose until you're penniless!"

  When Nangong Qi heard that voice that made him grit his teeth, he immediately turned his head around. When he saw Feng Mianxue take out those few purple gold coins, count them a few times before taking them out to buy that small and pitiful gambling stone, he immediately let out a disdainful cold laugh.

  At this moment, he thought Feng Muxue was just a poor devil, but also liked to show off!

  "Hmph, a poor devil like you dares to cross me? Just wait and see how I'll deal with you later!"

  Nangong Qiqi was secretly seething with anger, but a triumphant smile appeared on his face. He could even imagine the scene of Feng Muxue crying loudly in front of him after losing to him.

  "Whether I lose or not is none of your business! Stop meddling in other people's affairs!"

  Feng Mei Xue raised an eyebrow and swept a glance at Nan Gong Qi Yue, her voice also laced with disdain, not taking him seriously at all.

  "Hah! - Blondie, you've got quite an attitude! Got the guts to bet with me?"

  Nan Gong couldn't see Feng Mian Xue's face clearly, but he could recognize that she was the yellow-haired girl who had a grudge against him that day. Now, as enemies met, their eyes were especially red.

  "If you want to gamble, then gamble; who's afraid of whom?"

  Phoenix Snow's heel lifted slightly, making her petite figure appear even taller, intentionally displaying a weak yet strong posture.

  However, she was still easily seen through by Mo Yanhua, thinking that Nan Gong Qi would probably have a hard time later.

  "Haha, she's also here to join in on the fun!"

  Nalan Fengyin was drawn over by the commotion of the opposing forces, and when he saw Feng Mianxue, a gentle smile spread across his lips, and his mood suddenly became elevated.

  Originally called back by his ancestors, his somewhat dissatisfied emotions also disappeared in an instant.

  He is a carefree person, rarely worrying about anyone, let alone being affected by someone's emotions.

  But now, there is someone who just appears in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth reveal a genuine smile, his mood is exceptionally pleasant and relaxed, as if basking in the spring sunshine, birdsong and fragrance, warm breeze on his face.

  "Master! Master! The teacher has arrived!"

  Nalan Bog heard Feng Meixue's voice and immediately regained his spirit, with a fervent light flashing in his eyes.

  "I saw it!"

  Nalan Fengyin nodded slightly, with a calm and serene expression, giving off an otherworldly feeling. However, his eyes remained fixed on the direction of Feng Meixue, his gaze shallow but unusually focused.

  "That Nan Gong Qi Yue actually wants to bet with Master, truly doesn't know the height of heaven and the thickness of earth!"

  Nalanbo muttered to himself, full of confidence in his master Feng Mianxue. He had originally thought that his master wasn't coming, but she really did come, and he was so excited that he couldn't help it.

  "This time's God of Gamblers competition, I will definitely lose!"

  "Oh? Aren't you confident in your own gambling skills? Rarely hear you say something so defeatist!"

  Nalan Fengyin sat in a chair to the side, his gaze fixed on the center of the Yi Tian Casino, his deep voice laced with a hint of surprise.

  "You're wrong, Master! I didn't say anything depressing! With my master here, the winner will definitely be her!"

  Nalanbo's face showed no signs of disappointment, but instead revealed a proud expression, and he patted his chest saying.

  "You really have faith in her!"

  Nalan Fengyin smiled lightly and said, with her arm propped on the long chair, her long hair flowing down. That leisurely appearance made countless women infatuated with her.

  "That's natural!"

  Nalanbog's face burst into a big smile, his eyes fixed on Nan Gong Zui and Feng Mian Xue.

  "We'll each buy a gambling stone, and if what's inside is worth more than the other person's, that's considered a win. At that time, the thing cut out by the other party will be the winning party's, and the money for buying the gambling stone will also be paid by the losing party. Do you dare to gamble?"

  Nangong Qiqi said provocatively, and with a casual grab of her large hand, she had a big handful of purple gold coins.

  "Since you're willing to pay for the jade stone on my behalf and also willing to give me the cut-out piece, how can I possibly refuse?"

  Feng Mei Xue's tone was very calm, without any provocative sparks flying out, but it gave people a sense of being in control and having the upper hand.

  And those seven absolute music of Nan Gong were even more arrogant and domineering!

  Who would have dared to say such a thing to Nan Gong Seven Kills back then? Whenever he said he wanted to gamble, his opponent would have already run away with their tail between their legs. Even if they hadn't, they would definitely lose everything!

  "Go ahead and bet, I've got your back."

  Mo Yanhua stood beside Feng Muxue, a bright smile playing on her lips.

  He has always supported her decisions without reservation. Whether she wins or loses, as long as she has fun and enjoys herself, it's more valuable to him than winning any precious treasure.

  "Since you're not afraid of losing, let's begin! I invite the young master of Yi Tian Casino to witness our wager!"

  Nan Gong Qi Yue couldn't wait to say, especially wanting to see Feng Mei Xue's pitiful appearance crying miserably after losing.

  "Alright, I'll be your witness!"

  Nalan Fengyin had no opinion, nodded slightly, and wanted to see what kind of skills Feng Muxue had that made Nalan Bo praise her so much.

  "The South Palace's Seventh Absolute is far more impressive than that girl's choice! The victory margin is obviously much larger!"

  "I think this girl is definitely going to lose!"

  "Isn't that right? Playing with gambling stones also requires financial resources! This little girl is going head-to-head with Nan Gong Qi, isn't that like hitting a stone with an egg?"

  "The wealth of the Nangong clan is indeed extremely substantial!"

  “……”

  Everyone began to discuss it, looking at the smallest gambling stone picked by Feng Mianxue, which was only the size of a fist, and compared with Nan Gong Qi's half-person-sized gambling stone, the difference was huge.

  Moreover, everyone saw that they were both casual and didn't resemble those jade gambling masters who carefully selected with caution.

  So in this way, the bigger the gamble, the more likely it is to cut out good things!

  Let's take a very simple example. If both sides cut out the same thing, wouldn't it be that the bigger gambler occupies all the advantages?

  "We can start cutting and polishing the jade now!"

  The two of them each paid their own money for the gambling stone and then asked the master in charge of cutting the gambling stone to start opening it.

  They started by cutting the small gambling stone of Feng Yuxue. The master's hand rose with a thin knife blade, carefully cutting open a layer of stone skin. In order not to destroy what might exist inside, they would slowly cut it layer by layer.

  It was only a layer of stone skin that was cut, and immediately a green light radiated from the jade, making everyone's eyes narrow as if they couldn't bear such a dazzling light.

  "Wow! A fist-sized Rainbow Stone! This one's worth at least a hundred Purple Gold Coins!"

  People with discerning eyes immediately exclaimed in surprise.

  Everyone present was shocked to see Feng Miao Xue, who unexpectedly managed to strike it rich with three purple gold coins and cut out a colorful radiant stone worth over a hundred.

  This colorful stone has a magical power of avoiding evil spirits and can be said to be something that people dream of, which can sell for a good price.

  "What good luck she has!"

  For a moment, all eyes fell on Feng Mi Xue's body, with envy, disdain, and admiration.

  But this envy is not because of Feng Meixue's abilities, but rather because she thinks it's just a matter of luck.

  Especially Nan Gong Qi Yue, who thinks that Feng Mi Xue has had a stroke of bad luck today. Otherwise, such a small and insignificant piece of jade would not even be able to cut off a single hair, let alone the valuable evil-warding jade worth over a hundred purple gold coins!

  However, among them, there were always a few people who consistently believed that Feng Mianxue's success was not solely due to luck.

  Mo Yanhua is one, Nalan Rongruo is also one!

  As for Nalan Fengyin, he was half-believing and half-doubting. After all, he didn't know much about Feng Muxue's gambling skills either. He just inferred from Nalan Bo's various expressions that his heart leaned more towards Feng Muxue.

  "I also don't know what can be cut out from that half-person-head-sized gambling stone?"

  As soon as Feng Mie Xue cut out a fist-sized colored jade, everyone's eyes quickly turned to the large gamble stone selected by Nan Gong Qi Yue, thinking that such a large gamble stone would definitely cut out something even more valuable.

  Even Nan Gong Qi Yue's heart was set aflame when he saw the small, fist-sized jade that Feng Mian Xue had carved into such a fine piece.

  As long as the gambling stone he bought can be cut into a value higher than Feng Mian Xue's, it means that Feng Mian Xue's evil-warding treasure is his pocket money, and at the same time, Feng Mian Xue also has to pay for the purchase of the gambling stone.

  "When the time comes, even the ninety purple gold coins that Master Ben spent on buying the gambling stone will have to be paid back by this girl! Looking at her poor appearance, she must not be able to afford it! Humph, when the time comes, losing face is not a problem, she may even be left in the Yi Tian Gambling House as a laborer until she repays this debt and gains freedom..."

  Thinking of this, Nan Gong Seven suddenly felt even more joyful, and he couldn't wait to see the treasure cut out by his gambling stone in the next instant.

  "Alright, let's get started!"

  The master of cutting jade, under everyone's expectation, raised the sharp blade in his hand.

  "Heaven bless, must cut out good stuff!"

  Nan Gong's throat suddenly rose with the voice of Da Shi, his eyes staring straight at the big gambling stone, and secretly he had already worshipped all the gods.

  Only saw the master's knife edge carefully cutting through the stone skin, layer by layer, but only a pile of stone dust came down.

  Seeing this situation, everyone couldn't help but feel a wave of disappointment, but they still opened their eyes wide and looked to see if there were any other treasures in the deeper layers.

  "Hiss! Hsssss!"

  It's still nothing after several more cuts.

  Suddenly, the casino was filled with whispers, and as they watched the shrinking gambling stone, their thick anticipation gradually dissipated.

  Finally, the master's knife stopped abruptly, and the original half-head-sized gambling stone was suddenly left with only a few grains of snow-white jade the size of peanuts, causing the entire scene to erupt in a commotion.

  "Hmm, sometimes having a big head doesn't necessarily mean you're worth much!"

  "It is! This is called 'the strength of troops lies in quality, not quantity'!"

  "It seems that little girl's vision is indeed not bad, even the young master of Nangong lost."

  A burst of whispers and discussions floated away, causing Nan Gong Seven's rather handsome face to turn pale one moment and red the next, looking quite dramatic.

  "Haha, this round's outcome is already settled!"

  Mo Yanhua couldn't help but burst into three loud laughs, her bright and charming voice captivating the hearts of many beautiful girls present, who couldn't help but flutter their eyelashes repeatedly.

  Feng Xue's face turned white on the spot, and she whispered angrily in his ear, "Don't you dare show off your voice like that? You're quite proud of attracting so many admirers, aren't you?"

  "My dear daughter, I'm delighted for you!"

  Mo Yanhua pretended to shiver and tremble, her pitiful appearance softened Feng Miao Xue's heart, who refrained from scolding him further.

  Although it was just a joking remark, she knew that between two people in love, everything is taken seriously. If she continued to joke around, An Yixuan would definitely become depressed because of it.

  She loves him deeply, down to her bones and soul. She doesn't want to see even a hint of unhappiness on his face, or else she'll feel heartache too.

  "How is it possible? How can there be jade but no stone?"

  Nangong Qiqi's eyes widened in utter disbelief, staring at the few snow-white jade stones that were only as big as peanuts, her fists clenched so tightly she wished to crush them into powder.

  However, when he realized that these few snow-white jade stones had all been lost to Feng Mianxue, he endured this urge again, otherwise, if he was caught and made to pay a hundred times more, wouldn't it be a loss on top of a loss?

  "These condensed white jade are quite valuable, but because they're too small, they're worth at most fifty purple gold coins, slightly inferior to this young lady's colorful radiant stone, so in this round, this young lady wins!"

  The master's experience was rich, and with a glance, he identified the value of these condensed white jade. These condensed white jade were too small, only enough to make a woman's earrings, compared to that fist-sized colorful stone, the value was much lower.

  "Oh dear, three purple gold coins! With the wealth and arrogance of the Southern Palace Young Master, he definitely won't default on his debt! And these few pieces of condensed dew white jade, I'll take them without hesitation!"

  Feng Mei Xue laughed with a sweet and lovely face, her small white hands unceremoniously took away the Cai Yao stone and Ning Lu Bai Yu, making Nan Gong Qi's heart ache.

  Of course, what was painful wasn't the three pieces of purple gold coins he had to pay for Feng Mianxue's gambling stones, but rather the few pieces of Congealed White Jade that cost him ninety purple gold coins to cut out!

  It's a pity that this Condensed Frost White Jade can't compare to Feng Mie Xue's Colorful Radiance Stone, but it's still worth 50 Purple Gold Coins! If he could give it to himself, it would be a good consolation after losing, but having it snatched away by Feng Mie Xue for nothing would naturally make him unhappy.

  "This round, I was careless, dare you play another round with me?"

  Nangong Qi took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to strangle Feng Mianxue to death, and instead spoke in a warm yet simmering tone that sent shivers down her spine.

  "What's there to dare or not dare?"

  Feng Mei Xue burst out laughing, her smile radiant. But in the eyes of Mo Yan Hua, it seemed incredibly cunning.

  "Since Prince Nangong wants to gamble, I'll definitely accompany him! What I'm afraid of is that Prince Nangong won't be able to afford to lose!"

  "Come on! This young master will accompany you to the end!"

  Nangong Qi was confident that he could turn the tables, so he enthusiastically started betting with Feng Mianxue.

  This time, he was very cautious and serious in selecting the gambling stone.

  Moreover, having learned from past experiences, he didn't dare to choose those that were too big, but if they were too small, he was afraid that nothing good would come out of them. After weighing his options, he finally chose a piece of jade the size of a plate.

  This piece of jade is permeated with an ancient aura all over its body, and it must be hiding a treasure inside.

  "Nangong young master, have you really thought this through? This gambling stone seems to be priced at 300 purple gold coins, can we afford it?"

  Feng Mei Xue laughed lightly, and in an instant, through the wheel of reincarnation, she discovered that inside the gambling stone chosen by Nan Gong Qi Yue, there was a gemstone that emitted extremely strong energy fluctuations, which was undoubtedly the Jiuxing Jade!

  What is called a nine-star jade, is not actually printed with nine stars on it, but refers to the shape of this nine-star jade, which is three-dimensional and has nine sides, somewhat similar to the shape of a star.

  This jade is extremely rare and precious, but if there is any, it has absorbed a lot of day and month essence, which is very beneficial for cultivating soul power. A piece of nine-star jade the size of a chicken egg is usually worth at least 400 purple gold coins.

  And this piece of Nan Gong Qi Yue's is about the size of a fist, probably worth six hundred purple gold coins!

  It can be seen from this that Nan Gong's seven absolute ones are not ordinary people, and their eyesight is not weak.

  "Of course I've chosen well, this one!"

  Nangong Qiqi smiled confidently and said: "As for the Purple Gold Coin, you don't have to worry about it on behalf of Young Master, Young Master can afford it!"

  "The young master of Nangong thought so, then he was greatly mistaken."

  Feng Mei Xue smiled and said: "Apart from paying for the gambling stone you bought with your own purple gold coins, you also have to pay for me! And judging from the gambling stone you chose, I must also choose one of similar value to win against you. So, have you thought about the total price after adding them up?"

  “……”

  As the confident and sweet words fell, there was another commotion among the people present, and many felt that Feng Mianxue was indeed a bit too confident.

  Even Nalan Bo and Nalan Fengyin, at this moment, looking at the gambling stones chosen by Nan Gong Zui, couldn't help but feel uncertain whether Feng Mian Xue could win or not.

  Because they all saw that the gambling stone selected by Nan Gong Qi was absolutely not comparable to those inferior goods just now, so if you want to win over Nan Gong Qi, it's very difficult without extremely strong observational power and luck.

  Only the stranger's smile, with a hint of that mesmerizing beauty at the corner of his mouth, still had that enigmatic half-smile, and he still believed Feng Xue would win, so it was still those words without any new meaning but with an unshakeable determination: "Lady, go ahead and bet, even if I lose everything, I will support you to the end!"

  "How can I bear to let you bankrupt! If anyone is going to go bankrupt, it should be him!"

  Feng Mei Xue lightly smiled and said, with a smile on her face, then walked lightly to the northeast corner under everyone's gaze, pointing with her hand: "That one, same size as a plate, but the price is only thirty percent of that."

  "Hmmph!"

  As soon as this was said, many people in the audience were almost shocked, and they all felt that Feng Mianxue was definitely using an egg to crack a rock!

  Think about it, how clever is the chess player in the gambling house?

  Even if this piece of corner material jade that Feng Mi Xue has chosen is good, it's impossible to cut out a piece of jade that can surpass the price of 300 purple gold coins, right?

  "What's going on? Did Master miscalculate?"

  Nalan Bo looked at Nalan Fengyin with concern, seemingly wanting to see some clues from his face.

  "Maybe they're not confident, so they don't want to lose too badly."

  Nalan Feng let out a sigh, and for some reason, he felt an inexplicable sense of loss in his heart, as if seeing her lose had also affected his mood.

  "Haha, thirty is just thirty! You've lost for sure!"

  Nangong Qiqi suddenly burst out laughing, her body shaking with mirth, and she looked particularly pleased with herself.

  "In any case, after you lose, you'll still have to pay me the 300 purple gold coins I spent on this gambling stone!"

  "Has it been decided? We're going to start carving the stone next!"

  The master in charge of cutting the gambling stone looked at Feng Mianxue and Nan Gong Qiuyue with great politeness and caution.

  "Cut it!"

  Feng Mei Xue nodded slightly, with a calm and composed expression on her face. Her domineering voice sent shivers down people's spines, making their blood boil with excitement.

  Nangong Qi was extremely impatient: "Cut! Cut mine first!"

  "Pffft! Duke Nan Gong is so anxious, what does he want Master to cut off for him?"

  Feng Mei Xue's words with a few ambiguous meanings made everyone burst into loud laughter.

  "You sharp-tongued little scamp!"

  Nangong Qiqi's face turned bright red with embarrassment and anger, her voice trembling with rage.

  "Good! Since both of you have no more objections, let's start deciphering the stele next."

  The master lightly hooked his hand, and a small servant was responsible for moving the two gambling stones to the case board in front of him. He glanced at it briefly before taking the lead in cutting the surface of the gambling stone selected by Nan Gong Qi with his knife.

  "Crack!"

  "Crack!"

  As the stone skin fell off layer by layer, Nan Gong's gambling stone gradually revealed a faint red color, and then suddenly appeared a fist-sized crimson jade.

  "Wow! That's a Nine-Star Jade!"

  "Awesome! The young master of the South Palace has an eye for good things, truly venomous! He actually cut out a very rare nine-star jade! That's a high-end existence worth 400 purple gold coins!"

  "It seems that Nangong Shao has turned the tables!"

  A burst of congratulatory and admiring voices fell, causing Nan Gong Seven's face to be filled with smiles, as if he had just announced his victory in the stone gambling game.

  So he urged hastily: "Cut it quickly! Cut off her edge material!"

  "Yes!"

  The master in charge of cutting nodded slightly and took a deep breath before starting to cut.

  "Hiss!"

  "Hiss!"

  Before long, the gambler's stone that Feng Mianxue had gradually revealed a brown color, but it was not only unattractive, but also made the master who cut the gambler's stone feel like he didn't dare to make another move.

  "Ladies and gentlemen, I have yet to perfect my cutting technique."

  The master furrowed his brow and smiled somewhat apologetically, "To cut further... would probably damage the treasure inside the gambling stone, so I'd like to ask my senior brother to take action."

  Due to the outbreak of a great war between the demon world and the mortal world in the past, many powerful warriors fell, and countless precious treasures were lost along with them, buried deep within the Fantasy Sea.

  After years of erosion and burial by wind and sand, the gambling stones excavated from the Demon Slaying Sea are prone to producing some precious spiritual medicines or classics, which can be easily damaged during cutting if not careful.

  Therefore, in order to benefit the buyer of the gambling stone, this master felt that with his cutting skills, if he continued to cut, it might damage the treasure inside, and he did not dare to make another cut.

  "What? Just a piece of scrap and I have to ask Brother Shifu for help? Is this a joke?"

  Nangong Qijue jumped up and pointed at the gambling stone, saying in disbelief

  "It's just scrap material anyway, even if it gets damaged, it's worthless. It belongs to the Young Master of Nangong's household after all."

  "Not bad, this round is definitely won by Nangong Young Master's Nine-Star Jade. I think it's better to concede directly, I believe Nangong Young Master won't mind."

  “……”

  Hearing this hubbub of discussion, Feng Xue only smiled faintly, but didn't say anything.

  Instead, some of the sharp-eyed masters present were now looking at each other with unusual expressions, thinking that there might be something even more terrifying than the Nine-Star Jade hidden here, otherwise why would the master cutter not dare to make a move?

  No matter what, the master who cut the jade finally asked his senior brother to take over.

  "Whoosh!"

  "Whoosh!"

  Under the flying debris of this thin stone skin, a connected lingzhi dry was cut out, causing the crowd in the field to burst into laughter.

  Nangong Qiqi burst into even more maniacal laughter: "What a treasure I thought I was, but it turns out to be just two stalks of dried lingzhi mushrooms. Comparing them, I'm sure everyone knows which one is stronger and which one is weaker!"

  After finishing, he glanced at Feng Muxue with a triumphant look, took two steps forward, stretched out his hand to grab the connected Lingzhi dry, indicating that he had won Feng Muxue, so he wanted to take away what was cut out from Feng Muxue's gambling stone.

  Slow!

  The master's senior brother, who was in charge of cutting the gambling stone, suddenly swung his knife to stop Nan Gong Qi and made him withdraw his hand before carefully examining the connected lingzhi dry goods and saying: "This round, this girl wins!"

  "What? Are your eyes blind?"

  Nangong Qijue suddenly glared, his killing intent thick and heavy as he said, "This is just an ordinary dried lingzhi mushroom, how can it compare to the Young Master's Nine-Star Jade?"

  "Wrong! This is not ordinary dried reishi mushroom! But a rare and precious Lingzhi that's hard to come by even after thousands of years!"

  The senior brother of the master said with great certainty: "One lingzhi resembles two, just like a man and woman entwined together, hence the elegant name 'entwined lingzhi'! Moreover, what's most important is that this entwined lingzhi has an extremely strong medicinal effect, with the divine efficacy of reviving dead wood. If refined and ingested, it can grant the soul master a hundred years of achievement. It's absolutely a precious treasure among treasures, worth over a thousand purple gold coins, or even priceless! Therefore, this round is won by that young lady!"

  “……”

  As soon as the words fell, the whole room suddenly plunged into a dead silence, and you could hear a pin drop!

  It was almost unbelievable to everyone, and they stared at Feng Mian Xue in shock, unable to comprehend how she had managed to pick out a priceless Cordyceps sinensis from a pile of ordinary scraps.

  "Master is indeed master, and it's incredibly awesome!"

  Nalanbo clenched his fists excitedly, wishing he could proclaim to the whole world that his master's gambling skills were incredible!

  "Haha, I've gained some experience this time."

  Nalan Fengyin was also extremely excited, but unlike Nalan Bog, he didn't show it on the outside. His lips only slightly curled up and a shallow smile appeared in his eyes.

  "It's impossible, it can't be, I must be dreaming!"

  Nangong Qiqi pinched her thigh hard, until the moment she felt excruciating pain, did she realize that the current situation was not a dream. A handsome face turned pale as paper on the spot, and her whole body was already trembling.

  "Enchanting mushroom! She actually cut out an enchanting mushroom!"

  Nangong Qiqi stared blankly for a moment, then suddenly felt that even if he lost the Jiuxing Jade, it wouldn't hurt him much.

  Because Feng Mi Xue's cut-out entwining zither is the one he thinks is the most painful existence, he hates himself for not being able to surpass and win the entwining zither.

  "I knew it, my wife will definitely win."

  Mo Yan's warm and gentle voice slowly floated into Feng Mianxue's ears, making her feel like she was basking in the warmth of spring.

  "I also know that my husband will definitely flatter."

  Feng Mei Xue chuckled lightly, like a hundred flowers blooming, then took two light steps forward, waving her hand to sweep away the Jiuxing Jade and Chanmian Zhi on the table: "Sorry about that, Young Master Nangong, this time your Jiuxing Jade lost, so the 330 purple gold coins we bet on the gambling stone will have to be borne by you alone!"

  Mo Yanhua was overjoyed when she called him "husband" and would definitely flatter her if it meant hearing that sweet, charming voice call him "husband" a few more times.

  "You..."

  Nangong Qiqi was so angry that he almost spat blood, and he really had the urge to go crazy. So, after taking a deep breath, he suddenly slammed his hand on the table and shouted loudly: "We'll bet again! This time, choose at least 500 purple gold coins or more, dare you?"

  "Master! Master, don't be impulsive!"

  The elder of the Du Sect, upon hearing Nan Gong's betting method, immediately went limp and hastily leaned in close to Nan Gong's ear, his face twisted with a few strands of malice as he whispered: "That little girl must have some skill at gambling on stones, if you continue to gamble like this, I'm afraid you'll lose the entire Nan Gong clan! Why don't we wait for them to leave the Yi Tian Gambling House and then make our move? By that time, what's a Nine-Star Jade or a Lingering Fern? She'll spit out whatever she eats!"

  "Yes, the elder is right!"

  Nangong Qijue was also afraid of losing, feeling that the loss of several hundred purple gold coins was really painful to the extreme.

  So he could only choose to secretly rob the road, in order to earn back today's losses. Then, he clenched his fists, and his eyes suddenly turned cold: "It's dark, Boss Ben suddenly doesn't want to gamble anymore, let's find another opportunity next time!"

  "Since Prince Nangong is penniless, I'll take my leave!"

  Feng Mei Xue said faintly, her smile still sweet and harmless.

  However, after seeing her win repeatedly and finally being able to cut out a piece of wrapped jade from the corner material of the gambled stone, no one present would think that she was bragging and relying on luck anymore.

  If it's from the same price range as Nan Gong Qi Yue's gambled stone, the wrapped Chi Shi cut out might still have a few doubts about being lucky. But if it's cut from the edge material, that would require extremely strong eyesight.

  Even the most astute gamblers seem to have made a mistake in this matter, otherwise they wouldn't put this jade stone with lingering fragrance in the pile of leftover materials!

  "Hmph, how could I possibly be out of money?! Tomorrow's God of Gamblers Championship, you'll see my prowess then!"

  Nangong Qijue's face was burning with anger as he listened to Feng Mianxue's calm tone, and he had a belly full of fire that couldn't be vented.

  "Then see you at the God of Gamblers' showdown!"

  Feng Mei Xue swept away Nan Gong's seven absolute defenses, and his appearance of violently jumping like thunder became even more radiant with a smile at the corner of his lips.

  "Let's go back, husband!"

  She took Hua's hand and walked out of the casino, with a hint of expectation on her face.

  "Master, she... actually left without even saying goodbye?"

  Nalan Rong gazed wistfully at Feng Meixue and Mo Yanhua's departing figures, his voice filled with resentment.

  "She has her own things to attend to, can't you see her again tomorrow? What's the rush?"

  Nalan Fengyin's rich and mellow voice spoke slowly, as he stood up slowly, his long robe without a single wrinkle.

  But in his heart, there was a hint of faint desolation.

  He didn't ask for much, just hoping to be as close to her as she was with Mo Yanhua, but he really hoped to see her every day.

  "You're watching the casino here!"

  "Master, didn't you say I could see her tomorrow? You told me not to rush, so why are you running out now?"

  Nalan Bo's face revealed a speechless expression as he watched Nalan Fengyin disappear into the distance like a gentle breeze, and he helplessly rubbed his forehead.

  What kind of master is he? What kind of teacher?

  ……

  The sky gradually darkened, and the big red lanterns on the street were hung high. The stalls on both sides were booming with business, including many places selling snacks, making it exceptionally lively.

  "Xuě ér yě è le ba? Wǒmen jiù zài zhè lǐ chī diǎn dōng xī rú hé?"

  Translation: "Is Xuě also hungry? How about we eat something here?"

  Moyan Hua pulled Fengmi Xue's white jade-like tender hands, walking towards a nearby stall, with a hint of pampering and happiness on her handsome face.

  Every time he holds her hand, he feels as if he's holding the most precious treasure in the world, and his lips curve up involuntarily.

  He would even feel that holding hands was not enough, and he needed to hug her tightly every moment, feeling her body temperature, breathing in the enticing fragrance she emitted.

  "Alright, then let's have two bowls of beef noodles!"

  Feng Mei Xue nodded, sitting on the long bench, her crisp voice fell melodiously. The dim yellow oil lamp on the table shone on her delicate face, casting a soft glow that made her features even more exquisite.

  "Alright, wait a moment, gentlemen!"

  The vendor was a woman who deftly put the noodles into the pot, boiling hot water, and a burst of steam rose up.

  Two bowls of beef noodles with green onions and thin slices of beef floating on top were soon placed on the table.

  "It smells so good!"

  Feng Mei Xue slightly lowered her head, smelling the fragrant and hot aroma of beef noodles that wafted up to her nose, and couldn't help but move her chopsticks eagerly.

  "There's also freshly steamed buns over here, you try some too!"

  Moyan Hua ordered two white and fluffy meat buns, paired with spicy beef noodles, the puffy texture was extremely delicious.

  After eating and drinking enough, the two paid the bill and strolled leisurely on the bustling streets.

  A few of Nangong Qiujue's followers secretly followed them, their eyes were sore and their mouths were watering. The two finally walked to a place where there were fewer people.

  "Here comes the chance! Let's go for it!"

  The elders of the Du Sect rushed up eagerly, determined to settle the previous score. If it weren't for the young master being afraid that others would say he couldn't take a loss and not wanting to make a scene in the bustling streets, they wouldn't have waited until their legs were numb.

  Now that they have caught the opportunity, how can they let it go?

  "Be more discreet, don't let others find out!"

  Nangong Qijue said with a gloomy tone, unable to wait any longer.

  "Does Duke Nangong want to gamble again?"

  Feng Mei Xue saw them flying out with a fierce momentum, their faces red with excitement, and couldn't help but ask.

  "Hum! I'll bet you're dead this time!"

  Nangong Qi's black whip lashed out, churning up a toxic mist that surged towards Feng Miao Xue and Mo Yan Hua like a thunderclap or a shooting star.

  "Oh no, I think you're going to lose again this time!"

  Feng Mei Xue's hand waved the peach blossom fan, and a powerful aura burst out from her body, making it hard to imagine how such a delicate and slender figure could contain such immense power.

  "Once you're here, don't think about leaving!"

  The cold and cruel voice of Mo Yan Hua had barely fallen when he swung his long sleeve, and the silver light arc in his hand instantly enveloped the Poison Sect elder who was charging towards him.

  "Boom!"

  Waves of air rolled in, smoke and dust filled the air, figures flew about, and fresh blood splattered everywhere.

  It was just one move, and the Poison Sect elders who rushed up were flying and falling to their deaths.

  Instant kill! An instant kill without any suspense! As easy as chopping vegetables or cutting a watermelon!

  "Soul - Soul of Honor!"

  Nangong Qiqi's heart shattered the moment she saw Mo Yanhua release her silver soul power, and she was so frightened that her gallbladder almost burst.

  He never expected that this man following Feng Yuxue would have such terrifying strength!

  Soul, respect!

  I knew it would be like this, he wouldn't dare to come and find fault even if you killed him! However, now that the sheep is lost, mending the pen is too late, whatever you say, it's all too late!

  "I've told you before, this time you will definitely lose, but you just won't believe me!"

  Phoenix Snow's hands danced with golden wheat, her absolutely beautiful face appeared completely unguarded in front of Nan Gong Qi Yue for the first time, leaving him both astonished and terrified.

  Stunningly beautiful, of course, was her peerless looks. And terrifying, was her formidable power.

  She looked like she was only in her teens, but her strength was far superior to his, how could he not be frightened?

  "Nine Poison Cauldrons! Begone!"

  Nan Gong Qi Yue knew that this time, to save his life, he had to rely on the Nine Poison Cauldrons. So, gritting his teeth, he directly summoned the Nine Poison Cauldrons and sent them flying towards Feng Mei Xue.

  "You're giving me a gift again? You're so enthusiastic, how can I possibly refuse?"

  Phoenix Snow saw the nine-toxic tripod suddenly appear, and she immediately smiled with joy. She had waited for so long, wasn't it all just for this thing?

  However, what she did not expect was that when she was about to reach out and take the nine poisonous cauldrons, a pair of slender hands had already beaten her to it.

  A tall figure, stretched out in the moonlight, looks somewhat cold and desolate. With just a faint glance, he can attract millions of people.

  His body was shrouded in a thick, eerie mist, his appearance vague and indistinct, giving off an exceptionally ethereal aura. It was as if even if one were to stretch out their hand, they still wouldn't be able to touch his body.

  He stood there, grasping the nine poisonous cauldrons, proudly standing in front of Nan Gong's Seven Extremes, causing everyone to widen their eyes in unison, clearly not expecting someone to intervene.
