"A big shot? How big of a shot? Isn't she the chairman of the gambling city's supervisory council? "
"My lord, isn't the chairman of the gambling city's supervisory council important enough? Besides, Bai Susu isn't just the chairman, she's also the vice city lord of this gambling city and the head of the bank. She's also an elder in charge of the Resource Management Council, the Auction House, and more. She's also the elder in charge of the Wind and Moon minor realm. She's so powerful that she controls almost half of the minor realm. "
"She's that powerful?"
"That's right. Bai Susu is also an immortal of the nine heavens conferred by the immortal dao. Not only does she control half of the minor realm, but she's also an important figure in the vast Bipolar Domain. Whether it's the grotto-heavens or the Profound Sky secret realms, everyone has to give her some face. Don't you think she's a big shot?"
"She can be considered a big shot, but … why does the name Bai Susu sound so familiar?"
Gu Qingfeng faintly recalled that Qian Ling had taken out a token to scare off Li Fengyan on the way here. The owner of that token seemed to be Bai Susu.
"Familiar? My lord, her name should be like thunder to your ears. Go ask around, who in Bipolar Domain doesn't know of Bai Susu's name? She's very powerful, "Ma Wang said.
Lord Ma advised, "So, when you see Bai Susu later, you must be polite. Don't mess around. Bai Susu is not someone that Li Fengyan can compare to. If you anger her, you might not even be able to leave the Wind Moon Microcosm alive, let alone survive in the Bipolar Sky Domain."
"Isn't that too exaggerated?"
"My lord, I'm not exaggerating at all. Bai Susu is definitely a Demon Immortal with unfathomable strength. I don't know how strong she is, but I heard that when someone caused trouble in the Wind Moon Small World, Bai Susu waved her hand and those Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals were turned into ashes on the spot. I heard that even some Spirit Immortals of the Great Wilderness were seriously injured."
"Now that you mention it, I won't see her, alright?"
"That's not right. You must see her. How can you not see her? She's someone we can't afford to offend. "
Although Ma Wang guessed that Gu Qingfeng might've been a great lord in the past, that was only a guess. Even if Gu Qingfeng was a great lord in the past, that was all in the past. In the great wilderness, where the strong reigned supreme, even if you were a great lord in the past, you'd be nothing but a grandson if you lost your cultivation. "
"That's true. He's such a big shot. I have to pay him a visit."
"Alright, First Master, please go ahead. We'll wait outside."
"You're not?"
"I'm not."
"Why wouldn't I dare?"
"Old Master, please spare me. I'm a coward. I'm afraid that I'll wet my pants if I see someone as important as Bai Susu."
Lord Ma really didn't dare to go.
. Ma's, Ma Wang.........................
"Alright, you wait here. When I come out, I'll take you to have some drinks with girls."
Gu Qingfeng was about to follow Xiao Ya to meet the legendary Bai Susu when Xiao Ya, who was walking in front of him, suddenly stopped. She glanced at Ma Wang and said, "Hey, blockhead, what are you waiting for? Do you want me to find someone to carry you there?"
"Me?"
Ma Wang pointed at himself in disbelief.
"President Bai wants to see you too. And Manager Li, you can come with us."
Hearing that Bai Susu wanted to see not only Gu Qingfeng but also himself, both Ma Wang and Manager Li were shocked. Then, they began to panic. Ma Wang, in particular, was so scared that his face turned pale. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say a word.
He glanced at Manager Li, and Manager Li also glanced at him. Both of them seemed to have the same question in their minds.
Did Bai Susu, the president of the Supervisory Committee, find something wrong in the Dark Light Mirror?
Or else …
Why did the president of the Supervisory Committee want to see the three of them?
Was she going to interrogate them?
Good heavens!
What should they do?
Ma Wang had heard a lot about how some gamblers colluded with people from the gambling house. They played tricks, deceived the Supervisory Committee, and swindled the gambling money. It was said that after these people were caught, they were all locked up in the black dungeon. They could neither live nor die.
At the thought of this …
Ma Wang's heart pounded. He was so scared that his legs turned to jelly.
He glanced at Manager Li and then at Gu Qingfeng, as if he was wondering if the two of them had colluded in secret.
But on second thought, it was unlikely.
Manager Li was very prestigious in the gambling city. He was also famous for being fair and impartial. He had never bent the law for favoritism.
Besides, Gu Qingfeng didn't look like a person who cheated. If he really cheated and won so much money, he would have kept a low profile. How could he be so high-profile and even dare to bet tens of millions of yuan?
But if the two of them hadn't colluded in secret, why did Bai Susu want to see the three of them?
Not only did he not know, but even Head Manager Li had a worried look on his face. He also did not know why the Supervisory Board's chairman wanted to see the three of them.
Ma Wang was scared. He was scared too.
Even though he was an open and upright person who had never colluded with outsiders, he was still scared when he heard that Bai Susu wanted to see him.
"This … Manager Li, do you know why President Bai wants to see us?"
Perhaps because he was too scared, Ma Wang's forehead kept breaking out in cold sweat. Even his voice was a little shaky and stuttering.
Manager Li shook his head. He didn't know either.
"Then what do you think it's about?"
Manager Li shook his head again.
"Could it be that President Bai suspects something and wants to interrogate us?"
Manager Li glanced at him and shook his head silently.
Good heavens!
Ma Wang swallowed his saliva and caught up with Gu Qingfeng. He asked telepathically, "Master, for the sake of the one thousand chips we gave you, can you tell us the truth?"
"What are you going to tell me?"
"You … won 1.8 billion in one go. Did you … cheat?"
Gu Qingfeng stopped and glanced at him. He smiled and said, "Take a guess."
"First Master! We're already at this juncture. Don't make us guess. "Ma Wang was so scared that he was about to cry." I'm a coward. Don't scare me, okay? "
"What if I cheat?"
"Pull out tendons, skin, bones, cook the internal organs, refine the immortal spirit, burn the soul … Legend has it that the Dark Dungeon will give us a taste of all its methods."
"So ruthless?"
"That's why!" Lord Ma choked and said, "If you're really lying, then we're done for!"
"If I cheat, I'll be done for. It's none of your business."
"That's easy for you to say. I gave you one thousand chips back then! They'll definitely suspect that we're in cahoots! "
"Just say that we're not in cahoots."
"They'll have to believe it first!"
"Don't worry. If the sky falls, I'll hold it up for you."
"You make it sound so nice. If the sky falls, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold it up!" Ma Wang pulled a long face and asked, "Master, did you cheat or not?"
Gu Qingfeng shushed him and pointed at Xiao Ya in front of them. "Be careful of ears."
