Chen Zanhu heard him speak softly and immediately laughed. He felt extremely carefree. He walked to Ye Kong's side and patted Ye Kong's shoulder and said, "Scholar Ye is so tactful, I am so happy!"
Chen Zanhu did this on purpose. Firstly, he wanted to embarrass Ye Kong and secondly, he wanted to test Ye Kong's strength.
As expected, Ye Kong staggered after being patted by him and almost burrowed under the table. Everyone roared with laughter.
In a room at the side of the hall on the second floor, a woman said angrily, "Huang Guangqiong, how are you guys running a casino? You let a mere foundation establishment master humiliate your esteemed guest?"
Huang Guangqiong quickly said carefully, "Sect Leader Huang, I'll immediately find someone to beat up that brat called Chen Zanhu."
The angry woman was the newly appointed sect leader of the Painting Sound Devil Sect, Huang Shishi. She was also here to bet today. Because of Li Chenwan's ascension, the Iron Arm Devil Sect was the only sect leader. Jade Arm Divine Lord Zi Yan Long wanted to use this martial arts competition to strengthen the Iron Arm Devil Sect's reputation.
Thus, the scale of the Iron Arm Devil Sect's martial arts competition was especially large, and the publicity was also very good. It could be said that everyone in the Iron Painting Sect knew about it. In the past few days, other than talking about Li Chenwan and Ye Kong's scandal, everyone was talking about the Iron Arm Devil Sect's recruitment.
Everyone paid attention to it, and Huang Shishi was no exception. She also came to the gambling house to take a look. Who knew that she would find Ye Kong's name at the betting point, so she paid more attention to the martial arts competition. When she came today, she just happened to see the scene of Chen Zanhu humiliating Ye Kong. How could she not be angry?
"Are you guys afraid of the Iron Arm Devil Sect? Aren't you afraid of our Painting Sound Devil Sect? Could it be that once our sect leader Li Chenwan leaves, the tea will turn cold? It's fine if you guys are afraid, I'll get someone to teach that reckless guy a lesson! "Huang Shishi was still angry.
"Don't worry, we will definitely take care of this small matter." Huang Guangqiong quickly promised. He didn't dare to let this matter blow up. Their City Well Devil Sect still had to do business here, so of course they didn't want to offend any of them. If they really let Huang Shishi make a move and things escalated, the City Well Gambling House wouldn't be able to escape responsibility.
Huang Guangqiong quickly walked out and arranged for people to warn Chen Zanhu. He was clear that this Chen Zanhu was just an ordinary disciple of the Iron Arm Devil Sect. Warning him or making him suffer a small loss would indirectly indicate that this was Huang Shishi's intention. This way, Chen Zanhu could only suffer a loss from Mute.
"I can't offend either side. It's hard to do business." Huang Guangqiong shook her head and said.
However, he soon entered the room excitedly and reported, "Sect Leader Huang, there's been a change."
Huang Shishi raised an eyebrow. "What changes?"
Huang Guangqiong smiled and said, "Sect Master Huang, I met Scholar Ye just now. He told me to forget about this matter. It's just a little disciple of the Iron Arm Devil Sect. There's no need to fuss about it. Moreover …"
"This coward!" Huang Shishi scolded. She thought to herself, 'Where's your courage from that day? I stood up for you, but you said not to fuss about it. Damn it!' She said angrily, "Moreover, what? Hurry up and say it!"
Huang Guangqiong frowned and said, "Moreover, Scholar Ye said that not only should we not fuss about it with Chen Zanhu, we should also spread the news that Chen Zanhu humiliated him."
"Ah?" Huang Shishi was stunned.
Huang Guangqiong said, "I'm guessing that he wants to show weakness and catch us off guard!"
"Oh." Huang Shishi nodded. However, she seemed to have thought of something and her frown relaxed. She scolded with a smile, "This stinking brat is really a miser."
After Huang Shishi finished speaking, she threw a small black bag to Huang Guangqiong and said, "I'll be leaving first. There's 100,000 spirit stones here. Bet it all on Ye Kong. I hope this brat won't disappoint me."
Another few days passed.
The day of the Iron Arm Demonic Sect's martial arts competition was getting closer. Standing on the main city's city tower, one could see the Iron Arm Demonic Sect's high stage. Zi Yan Long really wanted to make a big deal this time. Not only did he send the invitations to all the big and small businesses in the city, he also invited friends from other realms. He also waived the entry fee for the participants. There were an unprecedented number of participants who came to sign up. There were as many as carps crossing the river. Without money, which mortal didn't want to try? If they could enter the Iron Arm Demonic Sect, they would become cultivators. As the saying goes, one cultivator brings glory to the whole family.
In the restaurant of Iron Painting, at the dining table, and even in the toilets at the back street, those old women were holding up their pants and discussing this matter.
At the same time, there was also the rumor that Great Scholar Ye was humiliated in the City Well Demonic Sect. The rumor was that Great Scholar Ye was humiliated to the point that his face turned red and he even took the initiative to apologize. There was even a rumor that Great Scholar Ye was beaten up by Chen Zanhu of the Iron Arm Demonic Sect.
Hearing this kind of rumor, everyone cast a disdainful look at a certain Ye. Some people even said that such a bearman actually wanted to participate in the Iron Arm Demonic Sect's martial arts competition!
Most importantly, the City Well Demonic Sect kept releasing news that a super rich woman placed a large amount of spirit stones on Ye.
Instantly, everyone became excited. Damn, isn't this giving money for free? Free spirit stones, it's a waste not to take it! Let's go bet too!
The City Well Demonic Sect's business became popular. There were many people who came to bet every day. Huang Guangqiong and the rest were so busy that they couldn't help but laugh. No matter who won or lost, they would definitely receive 20% of the commission.
The big bosses behind Lin Jiexing and Ceng Tianshun were also in high spirits. They placed large amounts of spirit stones, and the number of spirit stones behind these two people reached new highs every day. The number of spirit stones behind Ye Kong's name didn't show any weakness and kept rising.
There were still five days until the martial arts competition in the Iron Arm Demonic Sect.
Ye Kong once again came to the City Well Demonic Sect. In the betting area, the number of spirit stones behind his name had already reached a huge amount of a million. Of course, 400,000 of them were placed by him.
Previously, when Ye Kong saw that there were people who supported him and thought highly of him, he was very happy. But now, he couldn't be happy. Because even if he won, he would only earn 40%. The other 60% would be taken away by some big boss.
"This big boss is really despicable. Why does he think highly of me? That damn brat Huang Guangqiong isn't willing to reveal the other party's name. Damn, let's go all out! "Ye Kong bet the remaining 400,000 spirit stones.
Instantly, he bet 800,000 spirit stones, and the big boss only had 600,000 spirit stones left.
Hehe, the one who earns the most is still me!
Unexpectedly, just as he placed his bet, Lin Jiexing's side also increased, and the bet also increased to 1,400,000 spirit stones. Then, the number of spirit stones behind Ceng Tianshun actually shot up to 1,800,000! It seemed that the bookmakers on both sides were also paying close attention to the board.
"Bet, bet, bet as much as you can. This young master is waiting to receive the money!"
Ye Kong wasn't happy for long. He saw the number of spirit stones behind his name suddenly jump up to a shocking number.
