The Primordial Law

Chapter 198 Gamblers from all sides
Four days later.

East City, Leichizhai.

This ancient hall, which had been abandoned for a hundred years and covered an area of dozens of acres, was built on a low hill in the city covered with pine and cypress trees. Although it was dilapidated, it had a broad view. It was bought by Lu Cangsheng at a high price after he came to Qiuzhou.

The water from the sea of thunder was used to fill the three-acre pond in the studio.

A nine-story formation tower was arranged with the Thunder Pond as the center, serving as the base for the young martial artists of the Lei Xiao Sect in East City.

All forces have handed over all matters concerning the Qianlong Lantern Festival to the leaders of the younger generation, and will not interfere in arranging alliances.

Du'e Temple is looking for the hidden dragon who can help the world.

The older generation of people from all forces would also like to see the quality of the young geniuses they have cultivated.
As a genius that only appears once in a thousand years in the Lei Xiao Sect, Lu Cangsheng deeply understands a truth. When doing anything, you must first think of a way out. Before advancing, you must have the ability to protect yourself. Only when you are fully prepared can you be invincible.

Leichizhai was the place of self-protection he built to welcome the Qianlong Lantern Festival.

"Let me in, you dare to stop me..."

Lu Wensheng's cold voice came from outside, arguing with the Lei Xiao Sect disciples who were guarding the Thunder Pool.

Lu Cangsheng, who was meditating on the surface of the Thunder Pond, was in a state of unrest. He opened his eyes and sighed, "Let him in!"

Lu Wensheng came to the edge of the thunder pool and watched Lu Cangsheng walking towards the shore step by step. After sorting out his emotions, he said as calmly as possible: "Cangsheng, lend me another 200,000 Yongquan coins. I will definitely win them all back this time!"

All of Lu Cangsheng's patience had been exhausted in the past few days: "Do you still want to fight? You've already lost three games, and you still haven't seen clearly. Others' fighting power is far superior to yours, and they've been teasing you all the time."

"No! After three fights, no one knows his fighting level better than me. He is indeed very strong and I am no match for him, but I no longer have the mentality of defeating him! I am very clear-headed and I know myself..." said Lu Wensheng.

Before he could finish, Lu Cangsheng scolded him, "Brother, you can't see the mountain when you are in the mountains. In the three matches, you lost the magic weapon battle suit and the Thunder Blade. All your training resources have been mortgaged. You also borrowed 200,000 Yongquan coins from Qianli Mountain, right? You can't fight in the ring anymore. You can't win."

In the past few days, Lu Wensheng has become very sensitive. He was so angry at Lu Cangsheng's words that he trembled and roared: "I didn't think about winning! Five moves, I only need to take his five moves, and I can win back all the losses before. I am a pure immortal body of Jiuquan, with eighteen thunder formations added to my body. Can't I take his five moves at the same level?"

"There's always someone better than you. You can't win!"

Lu Cangsheng added in a positive tone, "I've watched a few fights. Although Li Weiyi's realm is still low, his martial arts attainments are many times better than yours. He has been hiding his abilities and has never shown his true abilities. Even if we are at the same realm, I may not be his opponent. I will assume that the 260,000 Yongquan coins you borrowed from me were spent on your cultivation, so you don't have to pay them back. I can also help you pay back the money you borrowed from Qianli Mountain, but you must promise me that you can't go to the ring again..."

"You don't need to pity me!"

Lu Wensheng seemed to have been greatly stimulated: "I know that you look down on me, just like everyone else in the sect. You are a genius, and I am a waste! But I am also a genius, I am just not as good as you. That's right, I can't take ten moves, but I can definitely take five moves."

"Cangsheng...brother...senior brother, please lend me the Yongquan coins. Please, let me fight one last time. I promise, this will be the last time. I swear on the spirits of my parents in heaven."

"If I don't win back what I lost, I will die. How can I live in this world with the face? Those people in the sect are all laughing at me behind my back. I must prove myself, otherwise... I can only die!"

At the end of his speech, Lu Wensheng gradually lowered his body and was about to kneel down to Lu Cangsheng.

Lu Cangsheng could be cruel to anyone, but he had the greatest tolerance for this brother. He took a deep breath, a chill flashed in his eyes, and then quickly turned into a smile, and he helped Lu Wensheng up with both hands: "The last time?"

Lu Wensheng burst into laughter and said with emotion: "My parents died early, and we brothers depended on each other. Cangsheng, I knew you would not ignore my life or death! This last time, I will definitely win five times the Yongquan coins back."

Lu Cangsheng took out a rectangular medicine box from his bag and handed it over: "This 1,600-year-old black dragon grass was picked by me at the bottom of the East China Sea. It is worth about 200,000 Yongquan coins."

"Cangsheng, you are so kind. Don't worry, I will definitely win this time!"

Lu Wensheng left quickly with the medicine box in his arms, smiling happily.

Qin Qian walked in from outside, watched Lu Wensheng leave, and then looked at Lu Cangsheng's gloomy face and murderous eyes by the thunder pool.

She said, "Brother Lu was never in this crazy and sensitive state before. He was a very calm and restrained person. It's all Li Weiyi's fault. I'm going to kill him!"

She is a pure immortal body that has cultivated the Sixth Sea, so naturally she has the confidence to kill Li Weiyi.

Lu Cangsheng stared at the thunder pool: "It's just a chess piece! What we should really think about is, what is the purpose of Zuoqiu Ting pushing this chess piece out?"

Qin Qian said: "There is news that Li Weiyi is Cangli's brother-in-law."

"Cangli's brother-in-law? Isn't he the son-in-law of Zuoqiu Menting?" Lu Cangsheng frowned.

Qin Qian said: "Some even say that he has the strength to defeat Yang Zhiyong of Sui Zong. All kinds of news are flying around, some true and some false, very confusing." Lu Cangsheng thought for a moment: "The Zuoqiumen and Jiuli tribe have avoided war for ten years, recuperating and watching the heroes of the world and the court fighting each other, consuming each other and killing each other in a bloody battle. And they have a deep foundation, and I don't know how much food and salary resources, elixirs, magic weapons, battle formations and exotic beasts they have stockpiled. Now they want to officially join the game by taking advantage of the Du'e Temple and Qianlong Lantern Festival, in order to reap the benefits.

"The imperial court has decided to make them the primary target of attack, and to teach Du'e Temple and Zuoqiu Gate a lesson."

"The confrontation between the younger generation of Qianlong Lantern Festival will inevitably be in this pattern."

“So, there is no need for the Lei Xiao Sect to take action at this time against a mere Wu Hai Realm Fourth Realm martial artist. They should restrain themselves from charging into battle.”

"How about this, you go tell Long Dian. If Long Men can kill Li Weiyi, our cooperation can continue."

"Is Longmen willing to charge into battle?" Qin Qian said.

Lu Cangsheng said: "During the turmoil in Lizhou, Longmen had already offended the Jiuli tribe, and there must be a contest at the Qianlong Lantern Festival. Moreover, this deadly ring gambling game must have caused Longmen a lot of losses."

"How many extremely shrewd martial artists have been led into this trap step by step, and have all become crazy gamblers."

"Fortunately, Li Weiyi is only at the fourth level of the Five Seas Realm. If he were to advance three levels, the Hidden Dragon Lantern Club would be ruined by him alone and would be renamed the Hidden Dragon Gambling Club. This person must not be allowed to stay."

……

The challenge money for the first day is 500 Yongquan coins.

The next day it rose to one thousand.

On the third day, the rules were changed directly. There was no upper limit on the challenge money, and the loss was ten times the compensation.

On the fourth day, the arena was deserted. There were many people watching the fight, but very few dared to go on stage.

But with the hanging of the second cloth banner with the words "Defeat all enemies in the world with five moves", the top martial artists of the fourth realm of the Five Seas Realm, who had been scared of losing in the previous four days, immediately regrouped and ran around to raise Yongquan coins.

The enthusiasm was ignited again, and everyone was confident that they could withstand the five moves.

"This time, we are not required to pay a challenge fee. The rules say that this is a chance for us to make a comeback. We are going to return all the money we won."

"One to five. As long as we can take five of his moves, he will pay us five times as much no matter how many Yongquan coins we take out."

"But he told us to exercise restraint, act within our means, and never spend too much money."

"Restraint? He's afraid he can't afford the compensation if he loses."

"No one can be sure of defeating all martial artists of the same realm within five moves, so he naturally has to be more cautious."

"I can't take ten moves! If I can't take five moves from the same realm, what's the point of practicing martial arts?"

In the Qiuzhou Attendant Hall, on the top floor of the vermilion tower in the center, Jiang Ning, wearing a governor's official robe from a thousand years ago, sat in the center of a circular formation and was practicing the Dragon Awakening Technique.

The Dragon Awakening Technique is the only way to obtain the power of the dragon soul inside the official robe.

Of the 300 official robes of governors from a thousand years ago, half are stored in the palace, and the remaining half are lost among the people and in secluded places.

Hearing the noise and heated discussions below the tower, she stopped practicing and asked Zhuang Yue: "What happened again?"

Zhuang Yue changed into a pair of scarlet eyes, with pupils like jade, and her usual cold face had a more seductive look. She had a strange expression: "It's Qin Changfeng, Lin Yi, the Fifth Young Master, and the others who are preparing to fight in the ring again, and are raising money everywhere, claiming that they are going to make a big profit."

Jiang Ning's eyes were covered with a white dragon-patterned veil. There were already three misty dragon souls flowing around him. He asked in a quiet tone, "Has my fifth brother been taken in by them as well?"

"The Fifth Young Master has lost three games in a row, lost all his magic weapons, and was also injured. That guy showed no mercy at all." Zhuang Yue snorted.

Jiang Ning asked, "You've already lost so badly, why do you still want to fight?"

"Zuoqiu Ting wrote him another calligraphy, which said to defeat all enemies in the world with five moves. It's just five moves. How could Qin Changfeng and the Fifth Young Master not take the bait?"

Zhuang Yue added: "Zuo Qiu's suspension is clearly to use him. If he continues to win like this, he will surely anger everyone and it will be very dangerous."
