"What do you mean?" Master Hu San looked at Hou Tong coldly and squeezed the words out of his mouth.
Hou Tong chuckled and said, "Hu San, stop pretending. Who doesn't know what happened between you and Su Xin? Now that he directly handed over the money to the gang, it's clearly a slap in your face. How can you sit still now?
"But no matter what, he is your adopted son. What's more, you are the one who did this to him first. If you use your so-called adopted father's reputation to pressure him, your reputation in the Flying-eagle Gang will be ruined."
If you give me a sum of money, I'll help you deal with that brat. I guarantee that he'll be obedient to you. I'm not afraid of others saying that I'm bullying the young. Anyway, I, Hou Tong, am shameless, but you, Old Hu, are. "
Master Hu San was silent for a while and finally said, "Fifty thousand taels of silver."
"Hehe, deal!" Hou Tong clapped his hands, looking extremely satisfied.
"What do you want to do?"
Hou Tong walked out leisurely. "Don't worry about that. Anyway, I will definitely not let that kid have it easy."
Seeing Hou Tong leave, Advisor Li said worriedly, "Will this Hou Tong mess things up? He doesn't seem like a reliable person. "
Master Hu San said in a low voice, "Don't worry. Hou Tong is just a gambler, but he is not really stupid. Since he dared to come and talk to me, he must have his own ideas.
A guy who gambles badly, is weak, and stupid would not be able to sit in the leader's position for so many years. "
Seeing that Master Hu San was so sure, Advisor Li did not say anything more. However, in his eyes, there was a hint of indecipherable meaning.
At this time, in the hall of Merry Forest, Su Xin left everything to Huang Bingcheng to handle. Then, he went home alone to cultivate in seclusion.
After the battle with Luo Zhen, he gained a lot of experience. His cultivation speed even increased a lot. In these two days, he actually broke through five chakras in one go. Now, he had already broken through 51 chakras, and the middle stage of the Acquired Realm was just around the corner.
After breaking through five chakras, Su Xin did not go into seclusion. Instead, he found Li Bo and wanted to spar with him.
"How is your Bixie Swordsmanship?" Su Xin saw that the twin daggers on Li Bo's waist had been replaced by long swords. Clearly, his Bixie Swordsmanship had reached the entry level.
After practicing the Bixie Sword Art, Li Bo was much more reserved than before. He no longer exuded an icy aura.
But because of this, it proved that Li Bo was much stronger than before.
The more hidden one's aura was, the more terrifying one would be.
"This sword technique is very simple, but it's strange and ruthless. It's the epitome of an evil sword technique. I've been learning it for the past few days, and I've only barely grasped the basics. However, I keep feeling that this sword technique is lacking something, "Li Bo said.
Hearing Li Bo's answer, Su Xin was surprised. The Bixie Sword Art was originally a remnant of the Sunflower Treasure Book. For Li Bo to be able to see this point proved that his talent in martial arts was really good.
"Your feeling is right. This sword technique was originally separated from an extremely powerful cultivation technique. Come, let's try two moves. "Regarding the Bixie Sword Art, Su Xin was very curious.
Li Bo nodded and pulled out the long sword from his waist. His figure was like a ghost, and his movements were swift. In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Su Xin!
The piercingly cold sword light made it difficult to distinguish where this sword was coming from. It was extremely strange.
However, at this moment, Su Xin flicked his finger. With a clang, Li Bo's sword was directly deflected by Su Xin.
His figure changed again, and in the blink of an eye, Li Bo was already behind Su Xin. However, Su Xin turned around again and stretched out his finger again, deflecting Li Bo's sword.
Sheathing the long sword, Li Bo shook his head and said, "My sword is still too slow, and my strength is too weak. I can't even force you to draw your sword."
Shaking his slightly numb fingers, Su Xin said, "I've already opened more than fifty chakras. My strength is much greater than yours. You don't have to worry about this. Cultivating inner force has to be done step by step. You'll reach this realm sooner or later.
And to correct one thing, your sword is not slow, but my attack is faster.
Although the Bixie Sword Art is a sword technique, its most important thing is actually that ghost-like movement technique.
As long as you're faster than your opponent, you won't even give them a chance to draw their swords. "
The reason Su Xin had been able to deflect Li Bo's sword was because his attack speed was faster than Li Bo's.
Compared to the Bixie Sword Art, Lifeless Thorn's Swift Sword focused on movement speed, while the other focused on the speed of the sword.
Seeing Li Bo practice the Bixie Sword Art, Su Xin gained a general understanding of the technique.
Born from the Sunflower Manual, the Bixie Sword Art's essence could be summed up in one word: speed.
The Bixie Sword Art focused on speed, making it so that the opponent couldn't see any openings or counterattack. Or, it was so fast that even if the opponent saw an opening in the technique, the opponent wouldn't be able to counterattack in time.
If one wanted to break the Bixie Sword Art, one's Internal Strength had to completely suppress the opponent's, or one had to be like Su Xin and attack faster than the opponent.
As Li Bo and Su Xin exchanged pointers, Huang Bingcheng suddenly came to report, "Boss, something happened. Boss Sun of the Longqing Casino is waiting outside."
"Longqing Casino?" Su Xin thought for a moment. He had some recollection of the Longqing Casino.
After he had crippled Shunde Casino's Boss Huang, Boss Sun of the Longqing Casino had taken the opportunity to become the largest casino in Merry Forest. He was also a smart man.
"Old Huang, what's going on?" Su Xin asked.
Huang Bingcheng frowned and said, "Boss Sun said that someone is causing trouble in his casino. He has lost hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, but he won't pay a single cent."
"Who's causing trouble?"
Seeing Huang Bingcheng's look, Su Xin knew that this person was definitely not someone to be trifled with. Otherwise, Huang Bingcheng could solve it himself and wouldn't bother him.
"One of the team leaders, Hou Tong."
"Hou Tong? Why would he come to Merry Forest? "Su Xin suddenly frowned.
Su Xin had asked Huang Bingcheng to investigate the top management of the Flying-eagle Gang. Hou Tong, the gambling devil, was naturally impressive to him.
However, Hou Tong was tactful. He usually caused trouble in his own territory. Why did he come to Merry Forest today?
"Let's go and have a look." Su Xin and Huang Bingcheng walked out of the hall, and Li Bo followed them silently.
Outside the hall, Boss Sun immediately cried when he saw Su Xin coming out, "Boss Su, if Hou Tong continues to play like this, my Longqing Casino will be completely bankrupt.
It's okay if he doesn't pay after losing money. I don't need the money anymore. But as long as he wins money, he gives it to his men, and when he loses money, he wants to pay on credit. Isn't it obvious that he is a rascal? "
"Alright, stop howling. Follow me and have a look." Su Xin scolded.
Boss Sun lowered his head and followed Su Xin. In fact, he didn't have much hope when he came to find Su Xin.
Hou Tong was an old member of the Flying-eagle Gang and one of the 13 team leaders. Even though Su Xin was now famous, he was only a small team leader.
Although Su Xin had promised to protect them after receiving the money, would it still be effective in the face of the team leader of the Flying-eagle Gang?
At this time, in the Longqing Casino, all the gamblers were driven away by Hou Tong and his men. In such a big casino, only he was there shaking dice with the people in the casino.
He would shake, and the people in the casino would guess. It was the simplest game, big or small. No matter how bad Hou Tong's luck was, he could win two or three times out of ten.
Every time he won, he would throw the money to his men behind him, and when he lost, he would ask the people in the casino to give him credit.
"Five, five, four! Fourteen points, big, hahaha! I won again! "
Hou Tong laughed and threw the dice cup down, "Don't waste time. Give me the money."
"Boss Hou, you have won 30,000 taels of silver. All the cash flow of our casino has been won by you. Now we really have no money! How about we deduct it from your credit? "The person in charge of the casino was about to cry. He had never seen someone bully others like this.
Hou Tong sneered, "What I owe you is one thing, and what I win is another. I'll pay you back the money I owe you another day, but if you don't pay me back the money I win, I'll tear down your shop immediately!"
"Leader Hou, you are so arrogant. Changping House can't accommodate you, and you still want to demolish my store in Merry Forest."
Seeing Hou Tong's behavior, Su Xin knew that he must have come with bad intentions.
Hou Tong's actions were completely targeted at him. Boss Sun's gambling house was just an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire.
"You have no respect for your superiors!"
Hou Tong said with a cold expression, "In terms of status, your foster father Hu San and I are of the same generation. In terms of status, I am the leader of the gang, and you are just a small leader.
You can't even bow to me when we meet. Do you still have any respect for your foster father and the Eagle Gang? "
Hou Tong's tone was overbearing, but Su Xin remained expressionless as he said, "Chief Hou, the hierarchy isn't up to you. Don't keep me guessing. What exactly do you want?"
Hou Tong was surprised to see Su Xin so calm.
According to his understanding, Su Xin was a very arrogant young man. He dared to cripple Master Hu San's confidant, Tang Taihe, just because of a disagreement.
Now that Su Xin was so calm, Hou Tong felt that something was wrong.
"I came to gamble, but the casino won't give me the money I won. This is your territory, Su Xin. Why don't you give me the money?"
"How much money?" Su Xin's expression was still calm.
"A hundred thousand taels!" Hou Tong stretched out a finger.
The person in charge of the casino immediately shouted, "How can there be a hundred thousand taels? A game of dice is only a thousand taels! "
"I said a hundred thousand taels, so it is a hundred thousand taels! Do you have the right to speak here? Slap yourself! "
Hou Tong snorted coldly. Immediately, a subordinate behind him pulled the person in charge of the casino over and slapped him a few times. Immediately, his mouth was full of blood.
"How about it? Are you going to give me the one hundred thousand taels or not?" Hou Tong sat boldly on the chair with a fearless expression.
