"H-how's that possible!"
Ye Ming's face, which was flushed from excitement, instantly turned pale as he looked at the ace card in front of Qin Fang. His eyes were filled with disbelief. He could not believe the truth before him as he mumbled to himself.
The ace card appeared too suddenly, causing Ye Ming to almost lose his breath instantly. His entire body was trembling slightly, and his face was even paler.
He could not understand, nor could he figure out how Qin Fang won this round.
He was the one who shuffled the cards. Qin Fang did not even touch the cards. He clearly remembered that the ace card should not have appeared in this position, but it did.
'Did I remember wrongly?
Could it be that he's really too lucky? '
Unfortunately, this was destined to be an unsolved mystery. Unless Qin Fang took the initiative to reveal the secret, Ye Ming would never know the real reason.
…
In reality, Ye Ming was not the only one who was puzzled. The casino was also quite puzzled, such as the casino's surveillance room.
"How is it?
Did you find anything? "
A young man who was about the same age as Li Yang stood in front of the surveillance camera and asked the tester.
Although he wasn't at the scene, he had been watching the entire process through the monitor. And because of the camera, his perspective was even clearer than the audience at the scene.
At the same time, he was also a gambling expert. In the face of such a rule, it was already quite restrictive to cheat to a certain extent. Unless one was a powerful expert, one could only rely on luck.
The young man had low expectations of Ye Ming's skills. He was at the beginner level of the Thousand Illusions, which was much stronger than ordinary people. However, he was much weaker than a real expert. At the very least, the young man thought that he could definitely defeat Ye Ming. At most, it would take a little more effort.
However, Qin Fang …
He had no confidence at all.
He admitted that Qin Fang had the Thousand Illusions. He vaguely caught a glimpse of Qin Fang's Thousand Illusions, but it was not too powerful. It seemed to be just a beginner.
It was the same for the first four rounds. It seemed like both of them were on par, and it gave people the feeling that both of them were on par. However, in the last round, Ye Ming had almost won, but he still lost in the end. Moreover, he had suffered a crushing defeat.
'Could it be that this Qin Fang was pretending to be weak?'
Such a thought appeared in the young man's mind, and it shocked him.
If that was the case, it would be quite terrifying. At the very least, he did not think that he had the ability to use two narrow victories as bait. Such a scheme was profound.
"Young Master, we've checked it. There's no sign of cheating …"
Soon, the casino personnel who were in charge of monitoring the situation reported the news.
What was the most important thing for a casino to do business?
The police?
Of course not!
For a place like this, the police would not care at all. Even the son of a provincial boss would often play a few rounds here and leave after winning hundreds of thousands.
The casino was most afraid of cheaters. A real cheater, and it had to be a very powerful expert.
A Thousand Illusions expert was like a disaster to the casino. Even the international casinos in Macau and Las Vegas were no exception. They welcomed gamblers from all over the world, but the only thing they hated was cheaters.
Those who were caught cheating were not considered cheaters at all. Such people who were caught would have a very tragic ending. There were many who had their hands and feet chopped off. Some of them were once called "Gambling Kings" and "Thousand Illusions Kings".
However, a Thousand Illusions expert was different. Although the casino knew that he cheated, they could not find any evidence.
In the end, they had no choice but to spend a sum of money and respectfully ask him to leave. Then, they would blacklist him. At the same time, it would be announced in the international casino alliance. Such a person would become a person who was not welcomed by the entire alliance.
The Jin City Guild Hall naturally did not reach that level, but the method used was still similar.
Qin Fang's A card appeared very suddenly. Almost as soon as it appeared, the young man immediately felt that Qin Fang had cheated. That was why he hoped to find evidence through the surveillance just now.
Unfortunately, just like those Thousand Illusions experts, there was no evidence. Either Qin Fang did not cheat at all, or Qin Fang's Thousand Illusions was too powerful and deceived everyone's eyes, including this advanced surveillance equipment.
"I understand …"
The young man nodded lightly. This was not a good sign. He was a little worried in his heart. He was worried that Qin Fang would make a move at the Jin City Guild Hall. Then, they would have to pay a huge price.
"I hope the situation isn't too bad …"
Regarding this, he could only sigh.
…
"Jiang Li, come here …"
Qin Fang did not have the mood to pay attention to Ye Ming's reaction. After winning this round, he immediately waved at Jiang Li. Since he had already won, it was time for him to fulfill the bet.
Qin Fang naturally accepted the money without hesitation.
However, at the same time, Qin Fang also won something else, something that he should have received long ago — an apology to Jiang Li.
Looking at Jiang Li who was walking over leisurely, Ye Ming's face turned from pale to blood red and gradually turned purple. He understood what Qin Fang was going to do. Not only did he win his money, but he also wanted to embarrass him.
It was impossible for them to go back on their word. When the two of them made the bet just now, they had already transferred one million US dollars each to the special account of the Jin City Guild Hall. If one of them won, the money would belong to that person. Moreover, this was done under the joint supervision of so many people at the scene. No one could control the result.
Moreover, the bet earlier had caused quite a commotion. Many people had rushed over after hearing the news. Among them, there was no lack of top young masters from the Western Shu Province. They had all witnessed the entire process with their own eyes.
Ye Ming had connections. Moreover, there were quite a number of impressive people in the circle of young masters in the Western Shu Province. For example, his cousin was one of the top young masters. However, the problem was that his cousin was not here, so he could not say anything at all.
Even if they were here, it would be useless. These young masters also had their own factions, just like their fathers. It was impossible for them to be of one mind. When there was an opportunity to beat a drowning dog, they would never be polite.
Therefore, Ye Ming had lost this sum of money. There was no way for him to go back on his word. He could only swallow his pride and suffer this loss for nothing.
"I-I'm sorry!"
Ye Ming, who was still a little uneasy in front of Jiang Li, was no longer as frivolous as before. Instead, it was replaced by a thick sense of humiliation and unwillingness.
He had definitely lost the money, and this bet was definitely indispensable. In the end, Ye Ming still shook his head and apologized to Jiang Li, even though anyone could hear that Ye Ming was not sincere at all.
"I-I want to bet with you again!"
Ye Ming, who had lost almost all his money, suddenly rushed in front of Qin Fang. He clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes were bloodshot. He seemed to be trying his best to suppress his emotions as he roared at Qin Fang.
"Do you have the money?"
But Qin Fang glanced at him gently, saying this with incomparable calmness.
Since …
Ye Ming was instantly stunned. He was extremely angry just now. The loss just now had completely caused him to lose his usual composure. He only wanted to win back the money he had lost.
However, when Qin Fang said this, he came to his senses. He had lost all his savings to Qin Fang. Right now, he did not have much money in his account that he could use. He estimated that he only had two to three hundred thousand yuan.
He might be able to play a few rounds in the casino with such a sum of money. However, the problem was that if he wanted to win back the one million yuan he had lost by betting with Qin Fang, there would be a gap.
"I-I'll bet my life with you!"
Perhaps he was so angry that Ye Ming blurted out that sentence.
Almost as soon as he said that, everyone present was stunned. All of them looked at Ye Ming in disbelief. They then looked at Qin Fang who was equally shocked.
Bet his life!
Perhaps there were many crazy bets like that in ancient times, but it was different in modern times. It was a society ruled by law now. Killing was a crime, even if the person had committed a heinous crime.
However, Ye Ming actually made such a bet at that moment. The first reaction everyone had was that this guy was a sore loser and had gone crazy!
Even Qin Fang thought so too. He did not expect Ye Ming to have such a weak mentality.
"You can't reject me. I know you know my technique. You know where I come from. It's the same for you. This is an old rule that has been around for thousands of years. You know that!"
Ye Ming's insanity had far exceeded Qin Fang's expectations. He could not believe that he had said that.
Qin Fang's expression was a little terrible. Ye Ming was using his trump card to force him to agree to Ye Ming's condition.
Just as Ye Ming said, Qin Fang knew that Ye Ming came from the Qian Sect, and Qin Fang was also a member of the Qian Sect. As soon as he entered the Qian Sect, he had to follow the Qian Sect's rules, especially some old rules that had been passed down for hundreds and thousands of years.
Although the Qian Sect had been around for a long time, there were many internal branches. They were incompatible with each other, so there were often internal conflicts. There were even many cases of life and death battles.
The most famous martial artists in history were Su Qin and Zhang Yi. Although they came from the same sect and both studied under Guigu 'zi, the way they fought was completely contradictory.
Even the sect was like that, let alone the different branches.
Therefore, there were some very ancient rules left behind in the Qian Sect. Some of them were suitable for the current situation, which was what Ye Ming said — a bet of life, a challenge that could not be rejected.
