The sun was shining brightly in the blue sky.
When the sun rose, the poles, ropes, and the banner in the market disappeared. Yang Yihe fell to the ground awkwardly and was carried back by the people of Wuyi Sect. However, no one cared about his ending now. Everyone's eyes were attracted to the Dragon Gate Rock outside the Dragon Gate.
The Dragon Gate Rock was located three miles away from the Dragon Gate Town Centralization. It faced the Great Dragon River and the terrain was quite steep. There was a big rock by the river facing the river, which was the Dragon Gate Rock. The Dragon Gate Rock was quite famous in the Dragon Gate area, but it was not well-known in the outside world. The Dragon Gate Rock looked very spectacular, but there was no matching scenery around it. Therefore, it could not attract the interest of others. Early in the morning, someone found a figure in white with a sword on the Dragon Gate Rock, as if waiting for something.
The White Blademaster, Lu Shaoyou!!!
When Lu Shaoyou challenged Wang She to a duel, he only said that the duel would take place at the Dragon Gate. He had never confirmed the location of the duel. Therefore, although the Dragon Gate was full of martial arts practitioners, no one knew where the duel would take place. Now that traces of Lu Shaoyou were found at the Dragon Gate Rock, there was no doubt that the duel would take place there. Under such circumstances, who would care about the Young Master of Wuyi Sect? They all rushed to the Dragon Gate Rock.
Therefore, in a very short time, the entire Dragon Gate Rock was surrounded by three layers of people inside and three layers of people outside.
However, no one could get within 300 feet of the Dragon Gate Rock, despite the large number of people.
It was as if there was an invisible line separating them from each other, isolating them at a distance of a hundred feet.
"This is the strength of a Level Nine expert!" The crowd sighed.
An invisible pressure was released and no one was able to get within a hundred feet of him. Furthermore, under the pressure of Lu Shaoyou's sharp aura, the originally noisy scene became incomparably quiet. Everyone stared fixedly at Lu Shaoyou, their eyes filled with a fanatical atmosphere.
"It's on, it's on. Place your bets, place your bets!"
In the midst of this solemn atmosphere, a strange voice suddenly rang out from the crowd. Everyone turned to look at the source of the voice, and all of them were dumbfounded. They saw that in the crowd, there was a young man in green robes. This young man had delicate features and a pair of bright eyes that were filled with intelligence. In front of him was a table, and he was sitting behind it. He was beaming with joy as he shouted. He had actually opened a gambling stall in the crowd.
Speaking of which, it was strange. Originally, under the pressure of Lu Shaoyou's imposing manner, the atmosphere was somewhat oppressive. However, after this youth's ruckus, the tense atmosphere disappeared without a trace. Although everyone was still unable to enter within a hundred feet of him, the volume of their discussions became louder. Some of the bolder ones ran up to the green-clothed youth and tried to buy a few hands, which the green-clothed youth accepted with a smile.
The White Blademaster Lu Shaoyou seemed to feel that something was wrong and looked at the young man in cyan clothes. The young man in cyan clothes seemed to notice his gaze. He raised his head slightly and met Lu Shaoyou's eyes. He smiled, turned his head, and continued to shout, "Place your bets, place your bets, place your bets, place your bets, place your bets, place your bets!" He did not care about Lu Shaoyou's gaze at all.
After Lu Shaoyou saw the face of the young man in cyan clothes clearly, his eyes flashed slightly, and he turned to the side as if he did not see him. This action did not go unnoticed by the crowd. Even a fool would know that the young man in cyan clothes had an extraordinary background. Otherwise, with Lu Shaoyou's arrogance, he would never allow someone to do such a thing when he was fighting with others. Now, more people came to the gambling stall of the young man in cyan clothes. Some placed their bets on Wang She, and some placed their bets on Lu Shaoyou. For a moment, the young man was very busy.
"Wang She wins, ten thousand taels!" A rough voice sounded in the crowd. Then, a tall figure pushed through the crowd and came to the front of the young man's gambling stall. He put a small cloth bag on the table. The crowd suddenly opened their eyes wide, because they could easily judge from the flashing light of the bag that this inconspicuous cloth bag was filled with gold.
Unexpectedly, the young man did not even raise his eyes, and took the cloth bag back. "Bet on Wang She wins, ten to one!"
"Ten to one? Are you serious?!" The big man was stunned for a moment, and then immediately shouted.
The young man in cyan clothes looked up at him, and then lowered his eyelids. "Twenty to one!"
"Uh!!" The big man's anger was stifled by the young man's words. He glared at him fiercely. "Fine, twenty to one it is!" After he finished speaking, he pushed through the crowd, turned around, and left. It was as if he wanted to vent his anger from the young man on the crowd beside him.
The group of people around him were pushed to the side by him. One of the hot-tempered people was about to curse, but his mouth was tightly covered by someone behind him. It wasn't until the burly man left that the hand covering his mouth loosened.
"Damn it, Wang Mazi, are you looking for a beating?!"
"I'm looking for a beating, you're looking for death. Do you know who that person is?!"
"Who? Is it Wang She?! "
"No, it's almost the same!" Wang Mazi looked at the majestic back with lingering fear. "That's Lei Xu, one of the three Chiefs of Tian Long Taoism. You can try to curse him!"
"Hiss!!" The crowd around him gasped, and secretly rejoiced that they did not speak nonsense.
Lei Xu of Tian Long Taoism. Compared to Wang She, Lei Xu, one of the three Chiefs, did not often show up in Jianghu. However, everyone knew that his reputation and status were above Wang She's. He was the only candidate for the next leader of Tian Long Taoism. His cultivation was as unfathomable as Wang She's. Unexpectedly, this burly man turned out to be Lei Xu. If this burly man was Lei Xu, then who was the youth in cyan who completely ignored this burly man and made him suffer?
Suddenly, the crowd looked at the young man in cyan clothes differently, as if they were looking at a rare treasure.
"What are you looking at? If you want to bet, then bet. If not, then go and watch the fun!" Being stared at by a large group of people, the young man in cyan clothes was obviously unhappy and shouted. Before his voice died away, a white money bag embroidered with gorgeous patterns fell in front of him. "Bet on Wang She, one hundred thousand taels, one to one!!"
As the voice died away, a cold and elegant figure floated away.
"No way, no matter how much we do business, we will always lose money!" The young man in cyan clothes looked at the white bag and shouted strangely. He mumbled and put the bag away.
"It's Nian Wushuang, Nian Wushuang of Tian Long Taoism!"
"It's really Nian Wushuang. Now two of the three Chiefs of Tian Long Taoism have come. If Wang She comes, it will be a rare event in Jianghu!"
"That's right, that's right!!" The crowd chimed in.
Both Lei Xu and Nian Wushuang's cultivation was extremely strong. For others, the range of a thousand feet did not affect them much. One after the other, they directly walked to the vicinity of the Dragon Gate Rock. They each found a good place and stopped. They both looked at Lu Shaoyou with a cold look. It was not until this moment that someone remembered that Lei Xu and Lu Shaoyou seemed to have some grievances, and it was about stealing his wife!
At that time, Lu Shaoyou was engaged to the daughter of Yunzhou Governor Ma Tianchang, but the bride was snatched by Wang She. In the beginning, everyone thought that Ma Linglong had an affair with Wang She. Who knew that the final result was shocking. The one who had an affair with Ma Linglong was not Wang She, but another Chief of Tian Long Taoism, Lei Xu. In this way, the resentment between Lu Shaoyou and Lei Xu was no less than the resentment between Lu Shaoyou and Wang She. The so-called hatred of killing one's father and stealing one's wife, Lu Shaoyou and Wang She did not kill his father, but Lei Xu stole his wife!
In an instant, the scene became strange. Everyone looked at the two of them with fiery gazes, as if they were waiting for the two of them to fight.
As everyone had expected, upon seeing Lei Xu's appearance, Lu Shaoyou's expressionless face finally changed and his gaze turned sharp.
"Your opponent today is Wang She, not me. After today, you can settle the grudges between us whenever you want!" Lei Xu also realized that there was something wrong with Wang She's eyes. He slightly waved his hand and said very generously, "Today, I won't take advantage of you!"
"Hehehehe!" His words silenced all the people around him, except for the young man in cyan who had set up the gambling stall, who started laughing. In this quiet environment where even a pin drop could be heard, his laughter was really ear-piercing. However, no one cared about him, because no one could tell his background. But no matter from Lu Shaoyou's behavior, or Lei Xu's and Nian Wushuang's behavior, this young man's background was obviously not ordinary. Since the person involved did not express any dissatisfaction, the Jianghu people present naturally would not be so stupid to stand up for others.
"Lu Shaoyou wins, 100,000 taels!" Just when the crowd was surprised, another voice sounded. They saw a middle-aged man with a kind face appear in front of the indigo-robed youth's gambling stall. On the table, there was a golden purse.
"Okay, Lu Shaoyou wins, 1: 30!" The indigo-robed youth took the purse and shouted.
The moment he said that, the middle-aged man almost fell to the ground. "How can you change the odds so randomly?!"
"You know too much inside information. If I don't change the odds, won't I lose a lot?!" The indigo-robed youth said without raising his head. He waved his hand at the middle-aged man, "Go, go, don't hinder my business!"
The middle-aged man looked very helpless. He pushed through the crowd and also walked to within 1,000 feet.
At this time, the surrounding people finally understood. Those who couldn't get within a thousand feet were all ordinary Jianghu people. However, those who could get within a thousand feet were all experts with powerful backgrounds. These powerful people were also very interesting. The first thing they did when they came here was to buy a bet in front of the youth's gambling stall. The minimum bet was ten thousand taels of silver. Among these people, some bet on Wang She and some bet on Lu Shaoyou. In the blink of an eye, the youth had collected nearly a million taels of silver, which made the surrounding Jianghu people speechless.
