Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1624: Chapter 1620: A High-Stakes Gamble (Part 1)

The middle-aged man gave Xue An a deep, scrutinizing look, then personally began to spin the roulette wheel.

There was undoubtedly something fishy about this wheel!

In fact, nearly all the gambling instruments in the casino had hidden mechanisms.

At least, Xue An could tell at a glance.

But he made no move, still standing quietly by the table watching.

The roulette spun rapidly, pulling at the hearts of everyone in the room.

After all, this was a huge sum of money at stake!

Finally.

The wheel gradually slowed down, and everyone watched tensely, except for Xue An, who remained calm and composed.

It was as if none of this had anything to do with him.

The middle-aged man couldn’t help but sneer secretly upon seeing this.

This guy is either an inexperienced rookie or an exceptionally deep strategist.

But judging by now, the former seems more likely.

After all, no one could remain so calm under such circumstances, not even taking a single glance.

This doesn’t make sense at all. It only proves he’s pretending.

But whether he watches or not, he’s bound to lose this time.

Because the middle-aged man had already used the hidden mechanism, ensuring whoever it was would lose their shirt.

Just as he was filled with confidence, the roulette began to slow down.

The atmosphere in the room grew more intense.

Hearing the escalating shouts from the crowd, the middle-aged man couldn’t help but look down, only for the smug expression on his face to suddenly freeze.

As the wheel stopped, the pointer slowly approached the number Xue An had bet on.

How could this happen?

This is absolutely impossible!

The middle-aged man’s eyes nearly popped out.

He knew that at the moment he started the wheel, he had secretly used the backdoor mechanism, so this situation shouldn’t have occurred at all.

Yet, the facts were ruthless.

As the pointer trembled and stopped right before Xue An’s chosen number, there was a violent commotion in the room.

"Oh my god, he won again!"

"It’s impossible! From start to now, he’s already won four times in a row, statistically speaking, it’s completely impossible!"

"Ten thousand Light Crystal Stones... how great would it be if it were mine!"

For a moment, the discussions were so loud it almost lifted the roof.

Xue An remained serene, merely lifting his gaze to the pale-faced, cold-sweat-covered middle-aged man, and then smiled faintly.

"Sorry, it seems I’ve won again!"

The middle-aged man’s lips moved, wanting to say something, but he couldn’t utter a single word.

Because he truly couldn’t understand what method Xue An used to win.

He had clearly used the backdoor!

Why did he still lose?

Just as he gazed dumbfoundedly at Xue An, puzzled beyond belief.

A crisp applause sounded from afar, followed by a cool female voice saying, "Good! What excellent gambling skills!"

With those words, the crowd immediately parted, forming a path, and a woman gracefully walked through, her beautiful face filled with an icy smile.

Upon seeing this woman, the middle-aged man couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief, then bowed deeply.

"Second Miss, this... "

The newcomer was Sally, the second daughter of the Light Divine King.

Her face was full of coldness, not even sparing the middle-aged man a glance, she said coldly, "Enough, I’ve seen it all! You’re useless, stand down!"

The middle-aged man, as if granted a huge reprieve, bowed, "Yes!"

Then he respectfully retreated behind Sally.

With Sally’s arrival, the room fell into utter silence.

No one dared speak, some of the timid ones even moved far to the back, not daring to lift their heads.

Sally ignored the surrounding gazes and walked directly to the gambling table.

The person previously in charge of the roulette immediately stepped aside.

Sally then stood opposite Xue An, smiling slightly.

"Honored guest, having traveled so far, we are sorry that the Light Casino couldn’t welcome you from afar!"

Xue An slightly raised his eyes, looked at Sally, then indifferently said, "What? A change of personnel?"

Sally’s smile remained unchanged, "Your wager is too large, beyond what these servants can manage, so naturally, I must take over!"

Xue An nodded, "So, you can manage next?"

With these words, many behind Sally subtly changed their expressions, some giving Xue An exceedingly sharp looks.

It should be known that Sally was the second daughter of the Light Divine King; such a noble background meant she was no ordinary person.

In fact, there had been no one who dared speak to her like this before, Xue An was the first.

These guards were naturally full of anger, ready to erupt.

Sally waved dismissively, restraining her eager subordinates behind her, then her smile cooled as she looked at Xue An.

"Of course, I’ll cover all the upcoming bets myself!"

"Oh, really?" Xue An raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Certainly!"

"It’s a pity, I’m afraid you can’t afford it!" Xue An shook his head.

Sally’s expression subtly changed, her tone growing colder, "How will you know if you don’t try?"

Xue An gave a faint smile, "You seem rather unconvinced?"

Sally snorted coldly, then said meaningfully, "Honored guest, although I do not know where you hail from, I must tell you, in this land, no one can defeat the Clan of Light!"

"What I mean is, no one!"

There was an underlying threat in Sally’s words.

Xue An seemed oblivious, smiling faintly, "Sounds impressive, but I refuse to be intimidated, so this time... I’m still going all in!"

Saying this, Xue An pushed forward with both hands, ten thousand Spirit Crystals being shoved into a numbered area.

Upon seeing this number, the crowd couldn’t help but gasp in unison.

Because the number was 1!

Note that in roulette, the end numbers are the least likely to appear.

Especially the very first number, 1!

It’s said to occur once in a blue moon.

Typically, no one bets on this number.

Therefore, the odds for this number are the highest, reaching fifty times.

Yet even so, nobody bets on this number due to its slim chances.

Now Xue An had placed a full ten thousand Crystal Stones on 1!

This meant if he won, he’d gain fifty thousand Crystal Stones.

And if he lost, he’d not only be out of his capital but might also lose his life.

So after a brief commotion, the room gradually fell into silence.

Sally was also taken aback, then looked deeply at Xue An across the table, trying to glean some hint from his expression.

But she failed.

On Xue An’s face, aside from a slight, enigmatic smile, there wasn’t any surplus expression, as if the ten thousand Spirit Crystals wagered didn’t belong to him, not even a blink of his eye.
