Jiang Hengchuan was stunned. He wanted to stop them, but after a moment of hesitation, he sighed and stepped forward to stand beside Mengqi, guarding against a sneak attack from the two masters.
"Ghost Shadow" Ding Xiaofeng and the other swordsman were both shocked and angry. They couldn't believe that "Killing Blade" Su Meng would dare to attack Owner You! Wasn't he afraid of the incorruptible anger?
Similarly, they couldn't believe that Mengqi's saber could be so fast that they couldn't react in time. It was almost on par with the "Aurora Electric Sword". Wasn't he known for his fierceness?
After years of living as a superior, You Shaohui managed to maintain his Maoling's heroic bearing after the shock and panic. He ignored the long saber on his neck and looked coldly at Mengqi. "Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to walk out of this door?"
"If Brother Jiang and I join forces, who can stop us in the Skyfirst No.1 Casino?" Mengqi said with a smile.
Experts of the Exterior, no matter where they were, were considered to be lords of a region. It was no longer a problem for them to pass down their families and establish their own sects. Even You Shaohui's brother-in-law, the 'impartial' Ye Taoguang, only had a few trusted Exterior subordinates. They were more like partners than subordinates. How could he recruit experts of the Exterior to help him manage his casino?
Unless he gave up more than half of his properties in Maoling. With his brother-in-law's deterrence, why would he do that?
As for the Half-step Exterior Scenery, as long as they didn't meet one or two outstanding experts, Meng Qi and Jiang Hengchuan could escape even if they couldn't beat them.
You Shaohui didn't give in. He snorted. "You might be able to get through today, but aren't you worried about tomorrow?"
"If Owner You can let bygones be bygones and tell us about the person Qiu Fei saw, I believe that such a small matter wouldn't attract the attention of the incorruptible Senior. As for revenge, Owner You, feel free to come at me. We'll take it." Meng Qi smiled and changed the topic. "If Owner You doesn't cherish his life, I'm all alone and have nothing to fear. What's there to be afraid of?"
You Shaohui's pupils contracted slightly. He saw that Mengqi's face was full of smiles. His face was clean and clear, but the words that came out of his mouth sent chills down one's spine. "Needless to say, those who come to the gambling house are incompetent. Those who have the strength to threaten Owner You are mostly from families and businesses. They don't want to offend Senior Ye. As for the heterodox experts, they don't want to get into trouble unless it's absolutely necessary. After all, everyone wants to beat them up. I believe that's why Owner You looks down on the heroes of the world."
"The world is so big. How many places can the Dajiang Gang control? In River East, it was only on par with the Wang family and the Ruan family! I'm not talented, but I'm confident that I can escape before the Dajiang Gang's Exterior and Half-step Exterior Scenery masters arrive. I'll be able to escape to the ends of the world. North Zhou Dynasty, the grassland, the East Sea, the Southern Wasteland, the West Regions — where can't I go? "
"Besides, with the potential that I've shown, there are plenty of big powers who are willing to take me in. Even if they don't openly offend the Dajiang Gang, they can still protect me in secret. After changing my name, I'll have a twenty to thirty percent chance of staying alive and making a comeback. "
"As for you, Owner You, with one slash of your saber, your home of wealth and gentleness will all be gone. It wasn't easy for you to hold up the Skyfirst No.1 Casino. Are you willing to let your children marry you?"
You Shaohui looked embarrassed. He tried to speak a few times, but was interrupted by Mengqi. Listening to the considerate analysis and looking at the gentle smile on his face, he suddenly felt that the other party could really bear to do it.
"The world is big, but martial arts are the most important. So, Owner You, do you really want to test the sharpness of my saber with your own neck?" Mengqi looked into You Shaohui's eyes with a faint smile. He pressed the Heaven Inflicted Pain against You Shaohui's neck even tighter.
You Shaohui's expression changed a few times. He gritted his teeth and finally decided that a wise man knew better than to fight when the odds were against him. He had plenty of money, women, and subordinates. His life was beautiful and his life was precious. Why should he fight with a brat who had yet to taste the beauty of life?
"Qiu Fei has been seeing Sun Ke, the leader of the Money Sect, 'Money Can Move God'. He must have asked him for information. As for why he's so secretive, it's not something that outsiders can know." You Shaohui explained everything in one breath. He then looked at Mengqi, waiting for him to move his saber.
"Money Can Move God"? Mengqi and Jiang Hengchuan secretly looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. This Half-step Exterior Scenery expert had always been tactful. Qiu Fei had colluded with the Nine Evil Paths and lost his reputation. As long as they could afford it, he would not keep it a secret for them.
Sun Ke was a Rogue Cultivator and a native of Maoling. He had single-handedly created the Money Sect and was one of the local tyrants. He was well-informed and had outstanding intelligence. As long as you paid him, he would help you find information.
You Shaohui snorted again. "You can move your saber now."
"We still have to ask Owner You to send us out. Your subordinates don't seem very friendly," Mengqi said leisurely as he looked at Ghost Shadow and the others, who were about to devour him.
Jiang Hengchuan shook his head helplessly. He used Secret Voice-sending to say, "Master Su, your methods are good and effective, but the consequences are not small."
"Brother Jiang, are you afraid of the revenge of a casino?" Mengqi replied with a smile.
Jiang Hengchuan pursed his lips slightly, revealing his chiseled jaw. His tone was filled with the pride of a top ten on the Ranking List of Young Masters. "What's there to be afraid of?"
As long as the Dajiang Gang was not involved, how strong a master could the Skyfirst No.1 Casino hire for revenge? Framing and framing? It wasn't like they didn't have connections!
Even if You Shaohui hired an assassin from the Unrelenting Tower, it would not be easy to kill the two of them. Would You Shaohui be willing to spend a huge sum of money to hire an Exterior-level Red-stair Assassin to vent his anger when there was no conflict of interest?
As for the Gold-level who had enlightened the Apertures, while dangerous, the two of them still had a chance to kill them. What was there to be afraid of?
You Shaohui was furious, but he suppressed it. He slowly got up and sent Mengqi and Jiang Hengchuan to the door with a saber at his neck.
On the way, You Shaohui suddenly heard Mengqi's laughing voice in his mind. "Owner You, please forgive me for offending you."
Secret Voice-sending? You Shaohui was a Nine Acupores Master. Even if he wasn't good at fighting, he could still use Secret Voice-sending. He said bitterly, "It's too late to apologize now."
"It's not too late, because I believe that Owner You has a deeper meaning." There was a hint of playfulness in Mengqi's tone.
You Shaohui was stunned, his voice rising and falling. "What are you talking about?"
Mengqi's expression didn't change as he continued to use Secret Voice-sending. "I only know one thing. If you walk too much by the river, your shoes will get wet. The Skyfirst No.1 Casino has been around for 20 years. If Owner You had always been like this, why would you have waited until today to be threatened by someone like me who's not afraid of death?"
"This only shows that you're foolishly bold." The anger in You Shaohui's tone magically disappeared.
Mengqi said with a smile, "Outsiders think that Owner You can achieve what you have today purely because you have a beautiful sister and a powerful husband. However, the headquarters of the Dajiang Gang is in Hechuan, which is quite a distance from Maoling. Owner You didn't open a casino in Hechuan, an important town in River East, a strategic location of the Dajiang River and a prosperous place in the world. Instead of being under the care of the 'impartial' senior, you built your own business in Maoling. How can you only rely on your family?"
You Shaohui snorted. "You have a good eye."
Who wouldn't like to hear praise?
"Even with the support of the Dajiang Gang, how can you make the Skyfirst No.1 Casino famous all over the world and the number one in River East? You're narrow-minded, careless, contemptuous of experts, hateful of the younger generation, and viewing martial artists as mere circus monkeys. I'm not the only one who can't stand it, I believe that many experts can't stand it either. It's not easy for Owner You to live to this day, "Mengqi said with a smile." I believe that no one who can achieve great things is easy to deal with. "
You Shaohui's chubby face twitched. "Is that so?"
Meng Qi said half-jokingly, "Owner You's behavior just now was as if you were saying to me, 'Come and hit me, come and hit me, hurry up and hit me.' Your posture was so good that I couldn't help but hit you. I wanted to test you."
You Shaohui sighed. "I'm getting old. I've gone a little overboard. I'm not as discreet as I used to be."
That was a tacit admission.
"I didn't expect 'Killing Blade' Su Meng to be such a reckless person." He sighed again.
Mengqi said with a smile, "I've always made my move only when I'm confident. What's the deeper meaning behind it, Owner You?"
"Master Wang asked me for a small favor. How could I not help?" You Shaohui said frankly.
Mengqi wasn't surprised. "It's really him."
Intelligence obtained through painstaking efforts was definitely more reliable and convincing than easily obtained news.
"You guessed it?" You Shaohui was surprised.
Mengqi chuckled and said vaguely, "Both sides are playing chess. The other has already made a few moves. Master Wang should at least respond, right?"
At this moment, the three of them had retreated to the door. Mengqi planned to let go of "Heaven Inflicted Pain" and push You Shaohui to the opposite side.
"Your guess is only slightly more likely. If you test me and find out that I'm indeed the person I've shown earlier, how will you respond?" You Shaohui suddenly asked.
Mengqi said with a faint smile, "What I said earlier wasn't false either."
You Shaohui was speechless and shocked. He was pushed by Mengqi and threw himself to the opposite side.
"Hey, I lied to you. If I'm not confident, I might as well find a chance to use Supernatural Power of Shaking Heaven and Hitting Earth …" Mengqi successfully created an image in You Shaohui's mind. With the force of the push, he circled like a giant bird and flew to the roof of the private room with Jiang Hengchuan. They dodged the Sword Gang and "Ghost Shadow" and disappeared from the Skyfirst No.1 Casino in a few moves.
…
"Since it's related to the Nine Evil Paths, I won't charge you." Sun Ke, the "Money Talks God", looked righteous.
Actually, he was afraid of getting involved in the Life-changing Sect's affairs and being hated by everyone … Mengqi didn't buy it at all.
He and Jiang Hengchuan were sitting in the main hall of the Money Sect's headquarters. Behind Sun Ke was a piece of calligraphy with the word "money" written nine times in a row to show that money opened the way and everything went smoothly.
Sun Ke was a middle-aged man with a square face, thick eyebrows, and big eyes. He had an extraordinary bearing, but he wore ten rings on his ten fingers. Some of them were jasper and some were emerald, all of which were rare top-grade. Some of them were even good materials for refining weapons. Around his neck hung five chains. There were also brooches and buckles. His clothes were made of gold thread. In short, he looked resplendent, like a moving treasury.
Jiang Hengchuan ignored the strange attire of this Half-step Exterior Scenery master and politely cupped one hand in the other before his chest. "Please tell me, Gang Leader Sun."
"On the first day, Qiu Fei asked us to investigate the whereabouts of a group of people. On the second day, we found them in a yard in the north of the city. After reporting to Qiu Fei, he asked us to investigate further and confirm who was inside. On the third day, by delivering food and disguising ourselves as arresters, we confirmed that there were Eight-armed Flying Dragon, Three Eagles of Cloud Ridge, and so on." Sun Ke answered clearly.
"Eight-armed Flying Dragon, Three Eagles of Cloud Ridge …" Jiang Hengchuan's expression changed slightly.
"What's wrong?" Mengqi asked through Secret Voice-sending.
Jiang Hengchuan's expression changed. "At that time, the other Lucky Chance was in their hands."
