Chapter Seventeen: Making a Fortune, Losing Everything!
ging clothes and washing up. After Yun Hao finished dressing and left the room, Xia Xuan also hurriedly tidied herself up and immediately seized the time to cultivate.She stood before Yun Hao, putting...Xu Li's guard Tie Shan was a cultivator at the first level of Zhenyuan Realm. He practiced an open and straightforward style, with powerful and domineering strength.
He rushed toward Yun Hao, throwing a punch straight at his face.
The air was struck by his power, exploding with a boom.
Everyone present seemed to foresee Yun Hao's fate. In their eyes, Yun Hao was about to be beaten to a pulp and left lying on the ground like a dead dog!
You lose and refuse to admit it, you deserve it!
As the powerful fist was about to land on Yun Hao's face,
Yun Hao's body, slightly shifted to one side.
That fist, which held explosive power,
It was almost as if they brushed past his cheek.
Next.
"Whoosh!"
A chill sword light, in an instant from Yun Hao's scabbard, poured forth, landing between the Iron Mountain's chest.
"Ah!"
Tieshan let out a scream, flew backward and crashed to the ground. His chest was ripped open, ribs shattered. He struggled twice before passing out.
The whole venue fell silent in an instant.
Yun Hao was so casual, he defeated a warrior of the True Yuan Realm first level!
This...Liu Yun City's notorious trash, just recently news came out that he could cultivate martial arts, and he's actually this strong
Xu Li, who was beside him, came to his senses and gritted his teeth.
His face was contorted with rage, and he bellowed, "Yun Hao, you have guts! You refuse to honor your debts after losing at the gambling den, and even dared to injure my guards. Today, I will make sure you pay for this!"
As they were speaking.
Xu Li's body was instantly filled with energy, his robe billowing in the wind, and the folding fan in his hand snapped open with a sound. The edge of the fan emitted sharp, pointed spikes, one after another, creaking ominously.
"Yunhao, this is what you provoked! I'm a True Yuan Triple Heaven cultivator. Dealing with you is no different from crushing an ant!"
Xu Li's voice sounded extremely sharp.
In conclusion, today, we must suppress Yun Hao and take his thousand-year Lei Mu.
He... can't accept defeat!
Faced with Xu Li's threat, Yun Hao's face flashed a disdain.
Even though his initial cultivation was only equivalent to the Qi Refining Realm, a genuine Yuan Gathering Realm third-tier cultivator couldn't even raise a ripple in front of him.
"If you dare to make a move, your guard's fate will be your example!" Yun Hao said coldly.
Everyone around, faces were extremely strange.
After Yun Hao learned martial arts… he floated away!
Xu Li is truly formidable, having reached the third level of the True Yuan Realm. Furthermore, the folding fan in Xu Li's hand clearly isn't an ordinary item!
"Ignorant and arrogant fool, Yun Hao, you will soon regret every word and action of yours!" Xu Li roared, his figure flashing as he charged straight towards Yun Hao.
Just then.
A terrifying aura suddenly descended.
"Boom!"
A surge of furious energy exploded between Yun Hao and Xu Li.
Xu Li's body, suddenly like a kite with a broken string, flew backwards.
While Yun Hao's body, his essence imbued with a sharp edge, tore apart the raging energy before him. Then, he moved his feet, his figure ethereal, flickering to the outside of the range where the raging energy was striking.
"Dare to cause trouble in the casino, I see you're tired of living!"
A loud shout rang out.
Next, a middle-aged man with graying temples walked over.
This person's eyes are sharp as an eagle, and their whole body exudes a strong aura of killing intent. They are clearly a ruthless character!
"Tuesday Grandpa…"
Xu Li, who had been flung to the ground and spat blood, got up trembling and bowed respectfully.
The casino belongs to the Zhou family.
This Tuesday Ye, whose full name is Zhou Xiao, is in charge of the business at the Zhou family casino. He is known for his ruthless methods and swift actions, making him a notorious figure in Liuyun City.
"Grandpa, here's the thing..."
Xu Li hurriedly thought about explaining the situation.
Zhou Xiao let out a cold snort. "Did I ask you anything"
Under Zhou Xiao's gaze, Xu Li only felt a chill rising from his feet, surging through his entire body.
Zhou Xiao looked at Yun Hao in astonishment.
The prodigal son of the Kuangjian Martial Arts Hall, he also knew it, but... Yunhao just now, unharmed, dodged his attack.
To others, this might seem like Yun Hao's good luck.
Although Zhou Xiao seemed unassuming, he was very aware that Yun Hao, who had always been called a waste, ...was anything but ordinary!
Yunhao's expression was calm as he said, "Casinos have their own rules. Moving your hands in Zhou's casino is indeed breaking the rules, but those who break the rules are them, and I am upholding my own interests, and at the same time, maintaining the rules of Zhou's casino."
Looking at Yun Hao's Zhou Xiao, I have even higher regard for him in my heart.
All the young people present were the sons of wealthy families in Liúyún City. They were used to showing off their power and prestige outside, but before him, they all shrank back, afraid to utter a word aloud, let alone meet his gaze.
However.
Under Yun Hao's imposing presence, yet he remained calm and composed, his expression serene...
"What's going on" Zhou Xiao shifted his gaze to a worker at the casino.
The staff member, knowing he couldn't lie before Zhou Xiao, recounted everything that had happened in detail.
That's it.
Zhou Xiao looked at Yun Hao and said, "If you really did come up with a thousand-year thunderwood, then this bet would naturally be yours. However, thousand-year thunderwood is difficult to identify. Please take it out so I can have a look."
Zhou's Casino's Second Master was known for his ruthlessness, but he had one advantage: he was notorious for keeping to the rules.
Yun Hao was not worried about him cheating. He raised his hand and flicked it, the millennium thunderwood shooting towards Zhou Xiao.
After receiving the thousand-year Thunderwood, energy surged within Zhou Xiao's palm.
The next moment.
A blazing arc of electricity, emanated from the charred piece of wood.
The light shone on every face!
Everyone was dumbfounded.
It's actually true!
Yunhao's luck exploded today! He got two treasures from two stones in a row.
And Xu Li, his face was as white as a sheet.
Matters have come to this, he couldn't accept the reality, but he had to!
Zhou Xiao's energy dissipated from his palm, and the millennium thunderwood returned to its charred block-like state.
"A thousand-year-old thunderwood of the Xuanjie intermediate grade, with a market value of 150,000 taels of silver. Yunhao, the Zhou family is offering you 150,000 taels of silver to buy it from you. Are you willing"
Zhou Xiao's eyes were blazing, as he looked at Yun Hao and said.
Yun Hao nodded and said, "Since Zhou Er Ye has a need, I am naturally willing to sell this thousand-year thunderwood."
Now.
What's missing is silver!
The Crazy Sword Martial Arts Academy needs a lot of money.
Moreover, Zhou Xiao's price is also reasonable.
Zhou Xiao saw Yun Hao agree, and immediately had someone fetch 150,000 taels of silver notes to complete the transaction with Yun Hao.
Then.
Under Zhou Xiao's pressure, the rest of them also readily fulfilled their bets.
Even if some of them didn't have enough silver notes, the gambling house would directly open up IOUs to help them cover the costs!
Among. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Xu Li suffered the worst loss.
Then comes Zhang Feng.
The two of them, they were all gambling debts, owed to the loan sharks... the interest rates were terrifying… Whether it was Xu's armory or Zhang's textile mill, both would be severely damaged!
On the other hand, Yun Hao is swimming in money.
Xu Li lost ten thousand taels of silver to him. Zhang Feng's group's outside bets,
He lost 220,000 taels of silver to Yun Hao. The casino helped with the exchange and charged a commission fee. Yun Hao received 200,000 taels!
Xu Li's Qingxin Lingye was also given to Yun Hao, who directly sold it to Zhou Xiao for 30,000 taels!
In addition, the 150,000 taels of silver from the sale of the millennium thunderwood were added.
So, Yun Hao returned ten thousand taels to Zhang Feng, leaving him with thirty-seven thousand taels.
Besides, there is also a piece of fire marrow jade on his body. This is a congenital spiritual material that can be used to cultivate the Tai Chu Creation Technique!
Aside.
Zhang Feng looked at the thick stack of silver bills in Yun Hao's hand, his eyes reddened.
He wanted to kill Yun Hao today.
As a result, it ended up benefiting Yun Hao instead!
...and he himself...lost everything!
He gritted his teeth, a flash of cruel cold light passing from his bloodshot eyes!o, he truly deserves it!Yun Hao came to Qu Feng's back.Standing at the very front, Xiao Ye also turned around. He looked at Yun Hao, raised his hand and waved it, a black bead flew out from his storag...
