Chapter 497: The Gambling Battle Began

Chapter 497 The Gambling Battle Began

In front of the warehouse of the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce, many administrators gathered around a corpse. Looking at the dried-up corpse on the ground gloomily, Yin Yutian vaguely identified the body judging from its lineament.

Qing Shi’er.

It was really unbelievable that someone dare to kill a person in Huangxing Chamber of Commerce. Besides, the victim was the administrator there!

“The murder is so audacious!”

Yin Yutian was shocked and outraged. His father, who was busy with the Guling Gambling Battle, ordered him to manage the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce, while he never expected to make such a big mistake.

“Get out of the way, everyone! The distinguished guest severed by Shi’er is here!”

At this moment, a manservant in indigo clothes out of the crowd shouted. Hearing that, Yin Yutian turned his head at once. When he saw Su Li, his face changed instantly. Then he trotted in front of Su Li to salute. The people were all surprised by his action.

What was this woman? Why the Young Lord was so respectful to her?

Su Li frowned slightly and stretched out her hand, making the universe ring next to the corpse fly into her hand. She casted an eye on it, finding it was empty. All the celestial stones had been removed.

With a flick of her fingertips, the ring flew into Yin Yutian’s hands. Then she said coolly, “Young Lord of Yin Family, how do you explain this?”

Yin Yutian had known the situation in the ring before. But now facing the query of Su Li, he was a little nervous. Then he held fists on hips and said, “We will look into it and find the truth. I promise that you will not suffer any losses!”

Su Li was relaxed a little, “Good. I believe that Huangxing Hall can handle it with the divination skill.”

“Certainly!”

Yin Yutian breathed a sigh of relief and answered calmly, “Within one month, our Huangxing Chamber of Commerce will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation. We would like to provide the spiritual jades that you needed this time for free as a compensation. What do you think?”

As he said, he handed over the ring with the spiritual jades and that empty ring.

Su Li took them and casted an eye at the gorgeous spiritual jades in it. The quantities of spiritual jades were all enough. She was satisfied and nodded, “Your Chamber of Commerce really deserves the first place in the Qingshui Circle. Then, I will wait and see.”

“Take care, Senior.”

After Yin Yutian saw Su Li out of the gate of the Chamber of Commerce, his face suddenly became gloomy. He called for the jittery servant besides him and asked by suppressing his anger, “Look for the Elder of divination for me. I want to kill someone!”

The servant nodded in fear, and immediately went to find the Elder.

Yin Yutian was still angry. But he didn’t know that what he had done was heard by his father, Yin Jue, who was the First Elder of the Chamber of Commerce.

“Hahaha, your noble son is decisive and indeed has the way of great generals. He must be somebody in the future!”

In the hall of the top floor of the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce, the furnishings were not as gorgeous as imagined. In addition to the elegant draperies, the emerald green embellishment was simpler compared with that of lower floors.

On a crystal and jade table in the hall, two cups of streaming tea gave off aroma.

At the table, two elegant middle-aged men dressed in white and purple robes respectively sat opposite each other, with striking similar temperaments. Elegance was explicitly shown in their gestures and behaviors, without any murderous look that the practitioners should have.

With a soft expression, the middle-aged man in the white robe looked gentle and kind. He was the First Elder of the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce in Tianyi City, Yin Jue.

Hearing the words of the purple-robed practitioner on the other side, he immediately smiled and said, “My son is not so talented. He couldn’t deserve your praise. Ha-ha…”

Even though he said so, he was happy in his heart. Because he needed to go out to search poisonous insect practitioners, he had to hand over the Chamber of Commerce to his son to manage. To his surprise, his son was not foppish as before and ran it well.

“First Elder, you are too humble.”

The purple-robed practitioner picked up the teacup and sipped at the tea. There was a light flashing away in his eyes. He said, “It’s a pity that we came back late. Otherwise, we can prevent it from happening on the spot.”

Hearing this, Yin Jue still smiled and waved his hand quite carelessly, “There must be some troubles facing us since we do business in cultivation circle. Since it has taken place, we just handle it later. You don’t need to care about it. The priority now is Guling Gambling Battle…”

The purple-robed practitioner agreed with a nod, “I admire your good attitude! I am here for Guling Gambling Battle, and I will not disappoint you. I hope you could keep your promise and give me the immortal poisonous insect later.”

Yin Jue immediately smiled and nodded, “Please rest assured. Huangxing Chamber of Commerce will not ruin the reputation for merely immortal poisonous insect.”

“Well, I am relieved.”

The purple-robed practitioner raised his teacup, “First Elder, I’d like to toast you with tea.”

He could see that Yin Jue didn’t tell a lie. How could the Huangxing Hall, one of the four great holy sects, break its promise for an auxiliary immortal poisonous insect? All holy sects were all sensitive to their faces except in face of sufficient benefits.

Although he didn’t know why Huangxing Hall asked him, a casual practitioner, to participate in the Guling Gambling Battle, it did not stop him from getting the benefits from it. Even if the immortal poisonous insect was auxiliary, it was a great fortune to him. And even if it could not be used by him, he could also buy a large amount of cultivation resources with it.

In addition, even if he failed, the benefits he got from Yin Jue would never need to be returned. Therefore, he would not suffer any losses at all.

Yin Jue also raised his teacup with a smile on his face.

As the owner of the Chamber of Commerce, he believed harmony brought wealth. However, it was the order of Huangxing Hall to find a casual practitioner to participate in the Battle. It really took him a lot of efforts to find Kang Chang.

No matter what the result might be, he didn’t disobey the order of the Huangxing Hall. Even if Kang Chang failed, the head sect would not find something wrong.

Although the two persons had their own thoughts, the atmosphere should be harmonious and pleasurable.

However, the harmonious atmosphere was quickly disrupted by others.

“First Elder, you are finally back!”

When the door of the hall suddenly opened, a pale old man with white beard and hair broke in. And his mouth bloodied.

Yin Jue frowned slightly at once. Before Yin Jue scolded him, the old man directly said, “The Young Lord asked me to find the murderer with divination, while the divination came to the Guling Gambling Battle, and I was also suffered…”

“What?”

With a gloomy face, Yin Jue stopped swaying his teacup. He, who was also good at the divination, had a presentiment in his heart.

The Guling Gambling Battle would definitely not be as simple as it seemed to be!

…

In a blink of an eye, another month passed away.

With five years passing, Guling Gambling Battle was about to kick off. Then all the forces participating in the Battle would gather at the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce quickly.

Five years ago, when all forces were arguing about the location of the Guling Gambling Battle, Huangxing Hall intervened and peremptorily decided the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce as the venue. For the Battle, it closed the third floor of the Chamber of Commerce and consolidated the matrix for protecting the spirits, which were enough to prevent the battling wave of practitioners, who were in peak of nature’s rest, from leaking.

With the support of great holy sects, the Tianyin Tribe and other forces certainly did not dare to say no, and agreed immediately.

As early morning as the sun didn’t came out, the place in front of the gate of Huangxing Chamber of Commerce was crowded with practitioners who came to watch the Battle. Those who entered the venue were required not only to reach higher than the Jindan Realm, but also to pay one thousand high-grade spiritual jades.

Even so, the third floor of the venue was still packed with people. In addition to the practitioners waiting to enter the venue, almost eighty percent of the practitioners came here merely for entertainment. After all, there were rare chances to see the practitioners of top sects in Jiuli Region in daily life.

“Get out of the way! The people from the Jiguang Sect are here!”

“They come so early!”

A crying sounded. Then the crowd immediately got out the way. With a cold face, Xuan Jingzhou walked in with the elders of the sect in a threatening manner quickly. A lot of casual practitioners casted admiring eyes on them.

“So imposing! If I could also join the great sect, how nice it would be.”

“Stop dreaming. Go to work quickly!”

“…”

When Xuan Jingzhou entered the venue on the third floor, Yin Jue greeted to him with a smile, “It’s been a long time since I saw you last time. Hope you are well!”

Xuan Jingzhou laughed and said in a calm voice without perceptible attitude, “Elder Yin is still as good as before in making money.”

“Lord Xuan overpraised me.”

Yin Jue held fists on hips and just considered it as a compliment. Then he saw Xuan An behind Xuan Jingzhou and said in astonishment, “It must be the Young Lord Xuan An, right? He has reached the Yuanying realm already at such a young age. So extraordinary! Maybe the Young Lord will get a good ranking in the following Tiaojiao List.”

Hearing this, Xuan Jingzhou was very happy and didn’t speak with sarcasm. He looked gentle and said with a smile, “He is very lazy in daily life. Fortunately, he has become more sensible and thoughtful recently. We parents are really worried about him.”

“Exactly. My son has also learned to share my burdens and cares recently. I really feel relieved.”

When Yin Jue talked about his son, a gentle expression appeared on his face. At this moment, Xuan Jingzhou should produce an illusion of finding a bosom friend. He pulled Xuan An and said, “He is your Uncle Yin, the First Elder of the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce. Give a salute quickly.”

However, Xuan An didn’t answer him. Xuan Jingzhou frowned, and saw that his son’s mind was wandering.

“Xuan An!”

Xuan Jingzhou just complimented Xuan An, while Xuan An’s behavior now made him lose face. When he was about to get angry, Yin Jue hurried to stop him with a smile, “It doesn’t matter. They are all trivialities.”

Then Xuan An suddenly came to himself and hurried to salute, “Uncle Yin, forgive me, please. I was not intended. I am too impolite.”

Yin Jue nodded at him and was still amiable. He held fists on hips and said to Xuan Jingzhou, “Guling Gambling Battle will kick off today. There are many things to be handled, and I have to leave now. Please take a seat, Lord Xuan.”

Xuan Jingzhou nodded, “Well, First Elder, I will help myself.”

Yin Jue saluted with joined hands and left.

Xuan Jingzhou took his people to sit on the largest seats in the west. In the venue, whose seats were larger than Jiguang Sect was only Tianyin Tribe. However, the seats of Tianyin Tribe and other sects were all empty. Other forces had not arrived yet except them.

Seeing his father didn’t blame him after he sitting down, Xuan An breathed a sigh of relief, while an expression of upset appeared in his eyes again.

In the past month, the people in Jiguang Sect had tried their best, while they didn’t find any suitable poisonous insect practitioner to participate in the Battle.

He sneaked a look at his father who closed his eyes for rest, and gripped the carrier rune in his hand with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

“Senior Sister Apprentice, will you come?
