The atmosphere in Gao Sheng Gambling House wasn't ruined by the princess's arrival. On the contrary, the people there were whispering gossip about the princess and Xie Chuanjie.
Xie Chuanjie, who was sitting on the gambling table, stood up respectfully and cupped his hands to salute the princess. After receiving a nod from the other party, Xie Chuanjie calmly sat down and took out a banknote worth a thousand taels. This would be the only chip he could use on the gambling table tonight.
After seeing the boss nod, the dice player began to shake the dice cup. To everyone's surprise, Xie Chuanjie sat there and didn't look at the dice player's movements at all.
When the dice cup stopped spinning and was placed on the gambling table, Xie Chuanjie paused for a moment before casually placing the banknotes on the small characters. The dice hand lifted the lid of the cup and everyone saw the numbers of two, two, three, and three on the dice in front of everyone. After a burst of noise, Xie Chuanjie signaled the dice player to quickly shake the dice.
For the next five rounds, Xie Chuanjie was like a god. He didn't even need three breaths of time to place his bets and was able to guess correctly every time. The people watching the game felt a burst of joy and seemed to have forgotten their original purpose. This was the first time they had seen such a scene in Gao Sheng Gambling House.
The gambling house's boss was already sweating profusely. If Xie Chuanjie won another round, he would really go bankrupt. Today, except for the princess and Xie Chuanjie's bets, everyone had lost their bets. However, even if Gao Sheng Gambling House won all the money before, it wouldn't be enough to compensate for the last round.
The dice player at the gambling table had already fainted. The person standing on the table was the boss of Gao Sheng Gambling House. At this time, no one could shake the dice for him.
On the other hand, Xie Chuanjie was sitting there calmly, as if the previous six rounds were just to test the waters. He picked up the teacup on the table and gently took a sip. Then, he said in a neither fast nor slow tone, "Let's start the last round quickly. It's getting late and I have to go back to sleep. "After saying that, he turned his head and looked at the princess sitting in the VIP seat.
The latter nodded slightly at him and then urged the owner of Gao Sheng Casino to start the game quickly.
Under the pressure, the boss had no choice but to pick up the dice cup and shake it. After a dozen shakes, he put down the dice cup. The sweat on his face flowed even faster. Xie Chuanjie was waiting for Yi Tian's signal, but this time, there was no sound transmission. He turned to look at Yi Tian and saw that his right hand was on the table, but his eyes were looking around as if he was looking for someone.
Just now, Xie Chuanjie had only used his Spiritual Light Eyes to see through the dice cup. Then, he directly transmitted his voice to Xie Chuanjie to tell him the number of points. When the last round was about to end, an extremely thin Spiritual Qi came from the audience and slowly extended into the dice cup, causing the dice to fluctuate slightly.
This kind of spiritual qi that was released through spiritual awareness naturally could not be hidden from Yi Tian, and then a trace of red spiritual qi was extended into the dice cup through the same method of releasing spiritual awareness. Now, the two spiritual qis were fighting with each other in the dice cup, causing the inside of the dice cup to buzz.
The casino owner's hands had already left the dice cup, but the dice cup was still shaking even though no one was touching it. After the surrounding people saw this, they all stood up to witness this miraculous moment.
Xie Chuanjie saw Yi Tian's serious face and knew that things had changed. He was not in a hurry to place a bet, but the casino owner saw the clues and kept urging him to place a bet. He also joked that if he did not place a bet, he would lose. Xie Chuanjie anxiously turned his head and stared at Yi Tian.
Suddenly, he heard a voice say, "Small." Out of trust for Yi Tian, Xie Chuanjie placed all of his thirty-two thousand taels of silver on small. With a bang, the lid of the dice cup automatically flew off. When everyone saw that the three dice had turned into a pile of powder, Xie Chuanjie laughed loudly and said, "If the dice turned into powder, then it means that there's nothing left. If there's nothing left, then it's small. I won the last round."
The casino owner was about to refute, but suddenly he saw the princess stand up and say, "No points is small, Xie Chuanjie won this round." After saying that, she did not look back and left with her subordinates.
After hearing these words, the casino owner suddenly sat down and could not help but cry, his mouth kept saying, "It's all over."
Xie Chuanjie, who was excited, suddenly received Yi Tian's sound transmission, "Take the things and leave quickly." Then he hurriedly closed the lid of the box, picked it up with both hands, and followed Yi Tian out of the casino.
After returning to the Xie family, Xie Chuanjie first thanked Yi Tian again and again for his generosity, but Yi Tian said, "If you want peace, give me that pair of jade pendants."
An hour later, Xie Chuanjie took back the brocade box. When he saw that the jade pendants were still inside, he looked at Yi Tian in confusion. After receiving Yi Tian's sound transmission, Xie Chuanjie calmed down.
A quarter of an hour later, Yi Tian walked out of the Xie family's back door, turned around, and blended into the crowd of the night market.
Four hours later, Yi Tian, who had left Jade Dragon City, was stopped in mid-air by a cultivator on a flying sword. When they were half a li apart, they recognized each other as soon as their divine senses clashed. They had already fought on the gambling table earlier, but this was the first time they had officially met.
On the flying wheel, Yi Tian sized up the other party. Although it was night time, to a cultivator, their vision was no different from daytime. Coupled with some detection spells, their appearances and mannerisms could be seen clearly. The other party was a cultivator in his thirties who was dressed like a scholar. He wore a storage bracelet and stood on a flying sword.
What surprised Yi Tian the most was that the other party was wearing the robes of a Wise Ruler disciple and was an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator just like him. He heard the other party say in a low voice, "Do you think you can get away with giving the Xie family a pair of fake jade pendants?"
Yi Tian replied disapprovingly, "That's to fool mortals, but to a Wise Ruler cultivator like you, it's indeed not enough."
He clearly saw the other party's body pause for a moment. It seemed that the other party had some misgivings after he revealed the other party's identity. This was still Xuan Ling Sect's territory. If they were to fight here, it would take less than two hours for someone to find them.
Yi Tian wanted to get information from the other party, so he lied and said that he was a loose cultivator from an aristocratic family and that he was on a mission to Jade Dragon City. As for the pair of jade pendants, it was also unintentional. He wondered what price the other party was willing to pay in exchange for the jade pendants.
The other party thought for a moment and offered a price of five hundred spirit stones. Yi Tian's interest was piqued when he heard this, and he became even more curious about the secret of the two jade pendants.
Seeing that Yi Tian was unmoved by the price, the other party increased the price. After hearing Yi Tian's reply, the other party took out a storage pouch and threw it over. Yi Tian also took out a jade pendant and threw it over. After both parties received the items, the other party held the jade pendant in his hand and the flying sword under his feet shot towards Yi Tian.
With a flash of fire, the flying wheel was engulfed in flames and caught the flying sword. The two of them snorted coldly in the air and began to fight. Yi Tian felt aggrieved when he fought with the mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator from Wise King Road previously, but this time, he could finally fight without holding back.
As soon as the two of them began to fight, Yi Tian realized that his spells were actually able to suppress the other party. He no longer used his hands to test the other party's strength and directly controlled the flaming flying wheel to attack the other party. He took out a bunch of Repeating Fireball Talismans from his storage pouch and activated them in an instant. With a fire escape technique, he flashed fifty to sixty feet away and threw the talismans at the other party.
Shocked, the other party hurriedly opened his defensive barrier. After suffering a fierce attack, the barrier flickered and the flying sword he was controlling was entangled by the flying wheel. Panicking, the other party quickly bit the tip of his finger and flicked a drop of blood at the flying sword.
Yi Tian saw the flying sword flash with a blood-red light. Then, it actually managed to shake off the flying wheel and continued to stab towards him. He extended a wooden vine from his hand and firmly held the flying sword in place. Using a portion of his divine sense, he directed the flying wheel to smash into the other party's defensive barrier. With a crack, the barrier broke. The flying wheel left a foot-long burn mark on the other party's chest. The pain caused the other party to stagger and fall down.
Seeing that the Flying Sword had lost control and was falling to the ground, Yi Tian hurriedly flew over and caught it with one hand. The vines in his hand shot out like a whip and tied up the person who had fallen to the ground.
In the cultivation world, it was not uncommon for people to kill others for their treasures. After reaching Foundation Establishment, Yi Tian had encountered it several times. However, the strange thing was that he was always involved with people from Wise King Road. Furthermore, he was always robbed in Xuan Ling Sect's territory.
Looking at his clothes, Yi Tian suddenly realized that these people were really picking on disciples from influential clans or rogue cultivators. If he had changed into the clothes of a Chiyang School disciple, it would have been better. At the very least, they would have been more cautious.
Two hours later, Yi Tian's face was extremely ugly. The Wise King Road disciple he caught just now refused to speak, so Yi Tian had no choice but to torture him. However, he only managed to find out that he was the contact person sent by the Wise King Road to Dong Ao. As for the jade pendant, it was just a random decision. The wood spiritual energy within it was very dense, so there should be something good inside. Thus, he targeted Yi Tian.
By the time Yi Tian wanted to continue asking, the person had already fainted from excessive blood loss. Although the Divine Sense Clone technique also contained a technique to extract souls and refine marrows, Yi Tian did not dare to use it unless he had no other choice. It would only be effective when his own Divine Sense was stronger than the other party's. Otherwise, it would not be a joke if there was no backlash.
After understanding the person's situation, Yi Tian took off his storage bracelet and wiped away the imprint. Then, he slowly extended his Divine Sense into it to check. When he took a look, he was shocked. This person's storage bracelet contained more than three thousand spirit stones. One-sixth of them were actually mid-grade spirit stones. This solved Yi Tian's urgent need. The things in the bracelet were enough to last him for a while.
Other than the spirit stones, there were also two maps of Dong Ao. Yi Tian looked at the map. One of them was the map of the three sects in the south of Dong Ao. The drawing was very detailed. The other map was a little strange. It was also a map of the south of Dong Ao, but only the Profound Sun Gate was marked on it. Moreover, it was located in the current Xuan Ling Sect. The Scarlet Flame Hill was marked as the Profound Sun Gate's Branch Hall. The Skyscraper Cliff was even more exaggerated. It was actually the Profound Sun Gate's Cultivation Hall.
After looking at the two maps, Yi Tian knew that a thousand years ago, the Dong Ao Continent should have been the territory of the Profound Sun Gate. Unfortunately, the Profound Sun Gate was divided into the Profound Sun Gate and the Scarlet Sun Gate. It seemed that the Xuan Ling Sect was still entrenched in the Ancestral Hall, while the Scarlet Sun Gate was chased to the Branch Hall. But what was up with the Iron Sword Gate? Could it be that it was also a branch of the Profound Sun Gate? How could it occupy the Cultivation Hall?
This Wisdom King Path disciple actually had these maps. This meant that he had a very detailed understanding of the Profound Sun Gate. Yi Tian felt that it would be difficult for him to find out the truth from the Chiyang School. In that case, he might as well find out from the Wisdom King Path disciple.
Unfortunately, other than that, there was no other valuable information. Yi Tian looked at the jade tablet of the Wisdom King Path in the bracelet. There was actually a message on it. The message said, "Lu Jin is ordered to investigate the Xuan Ling Sect's territory. Within ten years, he must find out the exact location of the Profound Sun Lightning Fire Cave." The person who sent the message was actually Zhong Yue.
Yi Tian finally remembered that the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivator he fought with last time should be this Zhong Yue. What a coincidence. He should find an opportunity to settle the score from last time.
