When he passed by the Bao Lai Enterprise, he disguised himself and walked in to prevent anyone from seeing the only contestant from the Du Family betting. If word got out, it would cause a lot of unnecessary commotion.
Du Shaofu originally wanted to bet on himself, but found that he was the hot favorite this time. The odds were very low. Even if he placed all his bets on himself, even if he won the championship, the odds would only be three times.
Three times, a total of more than ninety thousand cultivation coins. After deducting his capital, he would only win sixty-six thousand cultivation coins.
The odds for the less popular bets were extremely high, some even reaching a hundred times.
This gave Du Shaofu an idea. Thirty-three thousand cultivation coins. In the end, he gritted his teeth and bet on Bai Mei from the Bai Family.
Bai Mei was at the eighth level of the Houtian realm. If he entered the top ten, the odds would be thirty times. If he entered the top five, the odds would be one hundred and twenty times. If he entered the top four, the odds would be one hundred and sixty times.
This gave Du Shaofu enough reason to grit his teeth and take the risk. Then, there was the scene in the contest that puzzled the members of the major families.
After winning the betting slip, the amount was huge. Du Shaofu was not stupid. He naturally did not trust the Bao Lai Enterprise too much, so he called the King Scaled Demon Tiger to wait outside.
After entering the Bao Lai Enterprise, Du Shaofu felt that something was wrong. If he did not have a card up his sleeve, why would he enter the tiger's den and risk his life?
"Bang bang bang!"
In a short time, the rumbling sounds of the door being kicked could be heard from outside the Bao Lai Enterprise. There was a lot of noise, as if many people were rushing over.
Looking at Huang San, who was being held captive by him, Du Shaofu's brows twitched slightly. Then, a faint smile appeared on his face as he said softly, "You're in trouble. You're in big trouble."
"Whoosh whoosh."
Just as Du Shaofu's voice fell, many figures had already arrived in a hurry. Waves of vigorous aura descended.
As the figures moved, the entire Bao Lai Enterprise was completely surrounded.
Ye Clan's Ye Baolin, Ji Clan's Yan Qingsong, Qin Clan's Qin Zongqiong, Bai Clan's Bai Jiru, Du Clan's Du Zhenwu, Du Zhixiong, and other experts from various clans had arrived. Without a doubt, it was that shocking tiger roar that had drawn out all the Patriarchs of the five great clans.
"What happened? What happened just now?"
Looking at the messy scene, everyone's expression changed in confusion.
"Du Shaofu."
The expressions of many people changed once again when they saw Du Shaofu's figure in the wreckage. This was especially the case for Feng Qingsong from the Ran clan. His expression was the ugliest when he looked at his surroundings.
"Shaofu, why are you here? Are you alright?" Du Zhixiong saw Du Shaofu and immediately rushed to Du Shaofu's side.
"Second Uncle, I'm fine."
A smile appeared on Du Shaofu's face. Then, he roughly explained the situation of the trouble caused by the betting slip.
As for the appearance of the King Scaled Demonic Tiger, Du Shaofu only said that he didn't know about it. The King Scaled Demonic Tiger had suddenly appeared and killed the Third Master before suddenly leaving.
After hearing Du Shaofu's summary of the situation, Du Zhixiong couldn't hold back anymore. He immediately shouted angrily, "Bastard, how dare you renege on my Du Clan's debt and attack my Du Clan's people. Men, tie up all the people from the Bao Lai Enterprise. Seal up the Bao Lai Enterprise for me first."
As soon as Du Zhixiong's voice fell, the angry Du Clan disciples immediately rushed out. They punched and kicked the remaining people from the Bao Lai Enterprise and tied them up on the ground.
Unfortunately, the people from the Bao Lai Enterprise didn't dare to fight back. In Stone City, who dared to fight against the five great clans?
At this moment, if they still fought back, the Du Clan's people would probably annihilate them on the spot.
The expressions of the people from the various great clans changed. After listening to Du Shaofu's summary of the situation, many people finally understood why Du Shaofu had been protecting the Bai Clan's Bai Mei during yesterday's contest.
It seemed that Du Shaofu had long planned for the Bao Lai Enterprise. A single betting slip was enough to bankrupt the Bao Lai Enterprise.
5.2 million cultivation coins, this was a huge sum even for the five great clans.
"Du Shaofu, this brat, is too evil and ruthless!"
The experts from the various great clans sighed in their hearts. Their gazes were fixed on the seemingly upright, kind-looking, and harmless youth. In fact, this fellow was evil, ruthless, and extremely cunning.
"Ran Qingsong, you have to give me an explanation for this matter. Otherwise, my Du Clan will definitely not let this matter rest!"
Du Zhenwu suddenly glared at Ran Qingsong. The expression on his face showed that he wasn't joking.
"Du Zhenwu, what do you mean? This matter has nothing to do with me!" Ran Qingsong said in a deep voice.
Du Zhenwu shook his long sleeves and looked straight at Ran Qingsong. "Stop pretending. Since you want to deal with my nephew, don't blame me for being impolite. The Bao Lai Enterprise is backed by the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group, which is also related to your Ran Clan!"
The gazes of the other clans immediately fell on Ran Qingsong. How could the people from the various great clans not know about this matter? The various great clans all had some vassal forces behind them. The Bao Lai Enterprise and the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group were in fact together.
The Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group was a vassal force of the Ran Clan. This was no longer an open secret among the various great clans.
"The Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group has nothing to do with my Ran Clan. This matter has nothing to do with me either."
Ran Qingsong gritted his teeth and said coldly. At this moment, he was itching to tear apart the people from the Bao Lai Enterprise. These bastards actually dared to deal with Du Shaofu so openly. Were they not courting death? Even if his Ran Clan wanted to make a move, they couldn't do it so openly.
If he admitted that the Bao Lai Enterprise was related to him now, it would undoubtedly be admitting that the Bao Lai Enterprise's attempt to kill Du Shaofu was somehow related to the Ran Clan.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the Du Clan would definitely not let the Ran Clan off, whether it was for the sake of face or revenge.
Ran Qingsong wasn't afraid of the Du Clan, but he didn't want to fight with the Du Clan right now. They couldn't fight during this special period. Moreover, if he admitted it now, the Du Clan would undoubtedly be in the right while the Ran Clan would be in a passive position.
Therefore, no matter what, Ran Qingsong knew that he couldn't admit it. He could only abandon the Bao Lai Enterprise and the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group at this time.
However, Ran Qingsong didn't know that the Bao Lai Enterprise was also sullen. Before the big clans came in, none of them knew that the person wearing the cloak was Du Shaofu from the Du Clan. Otherwise, they wouldn't have dared to touch Du Shaofu.
"Ran Qingsong, it's good that you have nothing to do with this. If it has something to do with your Ran Clan, then don't blame me for being ruthless. I'll kill every descendant of your Ran Clan I see in the future!" Du Zhenwu glared fiercely at Ran Qingsong. This time, he was really angry.
Du Zhixiong kicked away a person from the Bao Lai Enterprise who was tied up at his feet. However, he still couldn't vent his anger. He said to the Deputy Commander of the Du Clan, Du Qi, behind him, "Du Qi, inform the experts in the clan to prepare to head to the Barbaric Beast Mountain Range. Our Du Clan will annihilate the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group if they dare to touch the people of my Du Clan!"
"Second Master, I'll make the arrangements right away." Du Qi nodded and immediately retreated to make the arrangements.
The big clans' faces darkened. Du Shaofu was the most talented descendant of the Du Clan. The people from the Bao Lai Enterprise wanted to kill Du Shaofu, which undoubtedly touched the bottom line of the Du Clan. If the Du Clan didn't make any big moves, then they wouldn't be the Du Clan. This was also the Du Clan's declaration to the other clans.
However, the people from the big clans, including Ye Baolin, were puzzled. Were the people from the Bao Lai Enterprise stupid? They dared to touch the people of the Du Clan. Weren't they courting death?
"Humph, my Du Clan hasn't killed anyone for a long time. I'm afraid that many people have forgotten about my Du Clan and think that my Du Clan is easy to bully!"
Du Zhixiong kicked the chest of a man from the Bao Lai Enterprise again and again, breaking his ribs and causing blood to spurt out from his mouth.
"It's good that Shaofu is fine. Some people who don't have eyes should be dealt with."
Ye Baolin spoke. His words implied that he agreed with the actions of the Du Clan. He even stood on the side of the Du Clan and supported the annihilation of the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group.
Bai Jiru of the Bai Clan and Qin Zongqiong of the Qin Clan didn't say anything. They all knew that the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group was related to the Si Clan. They were happy to watch the show.
The Du Clan wanted to annihilate the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group, which was equivalent to weakening the power of the Si Clan. However, the Si Clan had to suffer in silence this time.
"It's just that a King Scaled Demonic Tiger suddenly appeared in the stone city. It could disappear under our noses and even kill the Third Leader of the Heavenly Spirit Hunting Group. Its cultivation level must not be low." Ye Baolin continued. He was more concerned about why a King Scaled Demonic Tiger suddenly appeared in the stone city.
"We must investigate this thoroughly. Could it be that those evil creatures in the Savage Beast Mountain Range are planning to invade the stone city?"
The experts of the various clans also fell into deep thought. A King Scaled Demonic Tiger with an extremely high cultivation level had appeared in the stone city. This was indeed unusual. If a large number of demonic beasts were planning to invade the stone city, the consequences would be terrifying.
However, after pondering for a long time, the people of the various clans couldn't find anything.
Then, the people of the various clans could only discuss how to strictly investigate and be on guard against a large number of demonic beasts invading the stone city.
Du Shaofu didn't say anything. He simply stood quietly behind his second uncle. He couldn't tell everyone that the King Scaled Demonic Tiger was his.
From the words of Du Zhenwu and Du Zhixiong, it wasn't difficult for Du Shaofu to know that the stone city was in troubled times. The situation could change at any time. The King Scaled Demonic Tiger was his protective talisman and trump card. It was even a trump card of the Du Clan, so Du Shaofu didn't want to reveal it yet.
In the end, the various clans left the Bao Lai Enterprise, and the Bao Lai Enterprise owed a large debt to Du Shaofu. Naturally, the Bao Lai Enterprise was taken over by the Du Clan.
In the entire stone city, the Bao Lai Enterprise was one of the most famous enterprises under the five great clans. Its value wasn't low.
