Chapter 2203 - 2204: What Makes a True Euro Emperor (Second Update)
Chapter 2203: Chapter 2204: What Makes a True Euro Emperor (Second Update)
Indeed!
As soon as Lu Yushi finished listening to Xue An’s words, he immediately turned around and looked fiercely at Cheng Lixuan.
"What do you have to say now?"
Cheng Lixuan was so frightened that cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and he trembled, "Captain Lu... This matter is really suspicious! This guy must be up to some tricks among it!"
"Enough with the nonsense. Since you’ve entered The Drunken Life Pavilion, you must be prepared to gamble and accept defeat. Now that you’ve lost, kneel and apologize to him!" Lu Yushi said coldly.
Cheng Lixuan never dreamed that things would take such a huge turn.
But before he could react, Lu Yushi raised his hand.
Immediately, two subordinates rushed up from behind him, came behind Cheng Lixuan, and held his shoulders.
"Kneel!"
Cheng Lixuan didn’t even let out a grunt, and immediately fell to his knees.
This didn’t mean the two subordinates were stronger than Cheng Lixuan.
Everything was because of the Token held in their hands.
This Token was imbued with the power of The Drunken Life Pavilion’s luck. When the Token is revealed, it means they act on behalf of The Drunken Life Pavilion, naturally carrying the awe-inspiring power that makes even gods and ghosts shy away.
Helpless, Cheng Lixuan bowed his head to Xue An with shame and resentment.
"I was wrong! Please spare me!"
Xue An smiled faintly, then waved his hand, "Go away!"
Cheng Lixuan trembled all over, then scrambled to stand up, gave Xue An a deep look, and turned to leave.
Although it was not explicitly stated, everyone understood what Cheng Lixuan’s last glance meant.
At this moment, Lu Yushi also gave Xue An a meaningful look, then chuckled.
"Everyone, carry on!"
With that, he led his people and left.
The commotion finally settled down.
But the people present no longer felt like gambling.
Many were looking at Xue An with surprised expressions, as if they had just met the white-clothed youth who was only a Half-step Immortal Venerate for the first time.
Not just them, even Yue Qinghuan looked at Xue An with a shocked face.
Because she suddenly found that Xue An’s tactics just now, coupled with his sharp words that kill without shedding blood, were just like those she once saw.
Those were people who could stir up the world with eloquent tongues.
As her brother would say, they are the ancestors of killing without blood.
A single rage can make princes tremble, a calm ruler can bring peace to the world, maneuvering and diplomacy, nothing more!
At this moment, Xue An glanced down at her and smiled, "What’s that look for?"
Yue Qinghuan blushed, then shifted her gaze elsewhere, "What look? I just found your way of speaking interesting, don’t overthink it..."
But before she could finish her explanation, Xue An had already turned around and walked to the table, saying lightly, "Alright, while your luck is good, hurry over and win some money!"
Yue Qinghuan looked at Xue An’s back, suddenly feeling a bit disappointed, then stomped her foot fiercely.
"What a jerk!"
With that, she stormed ahead and took a handful from the pile of chips compensated to her, casually tossing them onto the betting area.
"Open!"
A moment later, the ball landed precisely on the number she bet on.
Now, many people’s looks at Yue Qinghuan were a bit off.
To hit a number with single press twice in a row, how small is that probability?
Even Yue Qinghuan herself was startled.
When did her luck become so good?
Beside her, Xue An chuckled softly, "No need to doubt, keep betting, use actions to show them what a true Euros is!"
Indeed.
Next, with seemingly divine help, Yue Qinghuan won regardless of which number she bet on.
Thus, a spectacle quickly unfolded at the gambling table. Everyone awaited Yue Qinghuan’s bet, then flocked to follow her bet, seeking hefty returns.
Soon, the croupier in charge of the roulette was as pale as paper, and despair showed in her eyes.
She had never seen such a bizarre streak before, so she repeatedly glanced at the Talisman Seal in the corner.
That was the Water Mirror Talisman, functioning like a surveillance camera.
The croupier knew that the situation here was certainly being transmitted to the Investigation Hall through the Water Mirror Talisman.
But oddly, why hasn’t anyone come to resolve it yet?
While the croupier pondered in bewilderment.
In the Investigation Hall at the very bottom of the first floor of The Drunken Life Pavilion, the atmosphere was equally tense.
Almost everyone gathered around the image of the roulette on the second floor.
Watching Yue Qinghuan, who was winning every bet on screen, the Chief Accountant could not help but squint slightly.
And standing nearby, Lu Yushi couldn’t help but rub his shiny bald head, "Damn, today is really bizarre, how can someone win every single time?"
With that, he grabbed one of the Investigation Hall staff and, filled with menacing Sha, asked, "Are you sure these two aren’t cheating?"
Facing the notorious Lu Yanwang, the staff turned pale with fright and stuttered, "At... At least from the current video evidence we have, we... we haven’t found any anomalies!"
"Damn, a bunch of useless people, can’t even see through a young lady, what good are you!" Lu Yushi glared, reaching out to twist the neck of this person.
Just then, the Chief Accountant said calmly, "Alright, if nothing has shown, then nothing has shown, it’s not their fault."
The Chief Accountant’s words evidently held weight, at least upon hearing them, Lu Yushi released the staff member.
"Get lost! If it wasn’t for the Chief Accountant speaking for you, I’d tear you apart piece by piece today!"
The staff member fled as if granted amnesty.
Then Lu Yushi turned to the Chief Accountant, "Chief Accountant, what do we do now? Just let this young lady keep winning wildly?"
The Chief Accountant shook his head, "You’re mistaken. The person we should be focusing on isn’t this Bing Family girl, but the white-clothed young man beside her."
"Hmm? You mean he’s behind this? Damn, I thought this kid seemed off when confronting Cheng Lixuan just now. My guess was right, I’ll go grab him now!"
Lu Yushi stormed out in a fit of anger.
"Come back!"
"What now?"
"Do you have evidence to go capture him now?"
"He’s just a Half-step Immortal Venerate, why would I need evidence? I’ll drag him back and interrogate him later!"
"You have such a simple head!" The Chief Accountant retracted his gaze, saying calmly, "Capturing him isn’t difficult, but if this matter spreads, what will people think?"
"This... ."
"People would definitely think The Drunken Life Pavilion can’t handle losing, so it captured the winning guest. In such a case, who would dare come to our pavilion in the future?"
