Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 282 A Massive Slaughter (Seeking Subscriptions)

The voice just fell.

Xu Shaopeng's two brothers, along with more than a dozen of the gambling den's henchmen, all surrounded him.

He stared at Shen Xuan with ill intent.

As long as Xu Shaopeng gives the order.

They would fight without hesitation!
Including Xu Shaopeng.

There were seven Foundation Establishment cultivators among them.

Three of them were blood-stained cultivators.

He recruited them to the gambling den with a large sum of money, just to do dirty work.

Seven against two.

The advantage is on his side.

Besides, he was in the right.

Xu Shaopeng's gambling den has obtained a gambling license from Qingyun Immortal City and is openly operating and paying taxes.

He wasn't afraid even if things escalated.

The law enforcement team of Qingyun Immortal City will only side with him.

At this time.

Shen Xuan shook his head slightly.

"Is this how Silver Hook Casino opens for business?"

"Can't I gamble a few rounds?"

"Does Silver Hook Gambling House actually pick and choose its customers?"

As soon as these words came out.

Xu Shaopeng was stunned.

His men were all looking at him.

Shen Xuan did not mention asking for people.

Instead, he said he wanted to gamble a few rounds.

This caught them off guard.

Xu Shaopeng, with a cold face, waved his hand, dismissing his men.

"Our gambling den is open for business, and everyone who comes is a customer."

"As long as you're not here to cause trouble, you can do whatever you want, I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"

Xu Shaopeng flashed a professional smile.

Their commotion has attracted many gamblers who are simply watching the show.

Many people are talking about it privately.

After all, it's been many years since we've seen such a spectacle of two factions of the Qingyun Sect directly clashing.

Moreover, it must be said that the Wu sisters are indeed beautiful.

Her face, figure, temperament, and status are all impeccable.

It's very eye-catching.

For gamblers, spirit stones come easily and go easily.

Eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling have always been inseparable.

Shen Xuan arrived at the largest and most common gambling table.

He watched the dealer shaking the dice across from him with a smile.

My divine sense swept over the dice tower.

It's actually a decent second-tier low-grade magic weapon. I wonder what material it's made of, but it can block divine sense from detecting it.

Even the skills [Insight] and [Keen Observation] cannot determine the number of points on the dice inside.

The dice tower was tossed back and forth in the dealer's hands before finally being placed heavily on the table.

"Please place your bet!"

The game began, and some gamblers placed their bets.

Xu Shaopeng strolled over slowly.

"Junior Brother Shen, do you not have any spirit stones? If not, your senior brother can lend you some."

"Don't worry, we're all fellow disciples, I'll waive three days' interest."

Dozens of eyes in the room turned to look at Shen Xuan.

Shen Xuan remained calm and composed, his smile growing even more relaxed.

"Junior sister, how many spirit stones did you bring?"

"what!"

Wu Xueting was clearly somewhat surprised.

They came to rescue people, but ended up at a gambling table?

"how many?"

"I can still get three to five thousand spirit stones."

"Bring it all out and bet on big."

Wu Xueting hesitated for a moment, but still took out three thousand spirit stones and obediently placed them on the "big" bet.

The dealer looked at Xu Shaopeng.

"What are you looking at! After collecting the bets, open the dice tower!"

The dealer wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Make your decision and then release! Open!"

Open the dice tower, and there are three, four, and five—it's a "big"!
"Won!"

Wu Xueting jumped up excitedly.

In this one round, he won three thousand spirit stones.

A hint of suspicion flashed in Xu Shaopeng's eyes.

Shen Xuan was so certain that he bet most of the spirit stones his junior sister was carrying.

It doesn't seem like a guess.

How could he know?

Although the Dice Tower can isolate a cultivator's divine sense.

However, Shen Xuan also possesses two special skills: [Bringing in Wealth and Treasure] and [Avoiding Misfortune and Seeking Good Fortune].

By combining various strategies, it is easy to determine the direction of betting.

In reality, gamblers bet against casinos.

No matter how you calculate it, the casino's probability of winning in each round will be more than 50%.

That's why there's a saying that you're bound to lose if you gamble for a long time.

After collecting the bets, the dealer continued to roll the dice.

"Senior brother, which one should we bet on this time?"

Wu Xueting asked with great interest.

"Oshida."

Wu Xueting counted out three thousand spirit stones, about to place them on the board.

Shen Xuan's voice came to my ears.

"Bet everything!"

"what?"

Wu Xueting looked at Shen Xuan.

He nodded emphatically.

Turning back, I glanced at my younger sister, who was looking at me with anticipation.

He gritted his teeth and pushed all six thousand spirit stones out.

"big!"

Some gamblers followed suit.

The dealer opened the dice tower.

246.

It's another "big" character!
Wu Xueting happily accepted the compensation.

In such a short time, he earned nine thousand spirit stones.

Large beads of sweat dripped from the croupier's forehead.

Ouch! My stomach hurts!

His expression showed unbearable pain.

"Second brother, you go!"

Xu Shaopeng gave the instructions.

The short, stocky man next to him nodded and stepped forward to take over the croupier's position.

"If you can't beat them, switch to someone else. You can't handle losing!"

Wu Xueting screamed.

The worst thing you can do in a gambling game is to change your players at the last minute.

Xu Shaopeng's actions are suspected of deceiving customers.

"It's ok."

Shen Xuan remained expressionless.

"Senior brother, let's change tables."

"No need!"

Shen Xuan smiled slightly and said, "Time is precious, let's not keep everyone waiting. Please, fellow Daoist!"

The second son shook the dice.

This time, the shaking lasted particularly long.

When he had finished setting up the dice tower.

Shen Xuan frowned slightly.

He looked at the second brother across from him.

Wu Xueting sensed that something was wrong.

She glanced around and said in a low voice, "Senior brother, if you're not sure, you don't have to bet." The third brother said from the side, "Wouldn't a true disciple of Little Lone Peak only pick on the weak?"

His subordinate chimed in, "Of course not! If word got out, where would Little Lone Peak's reputation be?"

"Senior brother, don't fall for their provocation."

Shen Xuan sighed softly.

"Bring all the spirit stones."

"Ah! Senior brother, be careful."

Wu Xueting suggested, "How about we just bet three thousand?"

"All of them! Hurry up!"

After receiving the 12,000 spirit stones from Wu Xueting, Shen Xuan slowly placed them all on the "leopard".

The whole place was in an uproar!

"The leopard! He's betting on the leopard!"

"More than ten thousand spirit stones, just thrown into the water like that!"

"No, something's wrong!"

"Could it really be possible? That's thirty-six times the chance!"

The second brother looked at Xu Shaopeng, his face pale.

Xu Shaopeng's heart sank immediately.

He dared to open a casino because he had something to rely on.

Besides the background of Master Ziqi, the second brother's gambling skills are also a factor.

His brother, having been taught by a mysterious person, could roll out the desired number of points at will.

Rolling out a "triple" is the killer move in dice rolling.

After all, very few people would bet on "leopard".

Shen Xuan bet a full twelve thousand spirit stones.

If this happens, he'll lose over 400,000 spirit stones!
At this point, he understood perfectly well.

Shen Xuan must possess a secret technique that allows him to see through the numbers on the dice in the dice tower.

There are many shrewd gamblers.

He noticed that the second son's expression was off.

Quickly take out your spirit stones and bet on "leopard" (a winning hand in the game).

The second brother, as if waking from a dream, shouted loudly, "The bookmaker has sealed the door!"

This stopped those gamblers who wanted to follow suit.

His voice was filled with helplessness; he could no longer laugh.

His eyes were filled with bitterness.

He has another secret weapon.

You can change the numbers inside the dice tower when you open it.

However, this greatly increases the risk.

If he gets caught, not only will his reputation be ruined.

Silver Hook Casino is also closing down.

The second son was reluctant to open the dice tower.

The gamblers, slow to realize what was happening, finally understood that something was wrong.

"Open the treasure! Why won't you open it!"

Wu Xueting realized what was happening and shouted loudly.

Some people who followed suit and placed bets joined in the commotion.

Shen Xuan remained calm and indifferent.

On the contrary, Wu Xueting and the gamblers around her all showed signs of impatience.

Even Wu Yuting broke free from the gambling den's men and ran to her sister's side to cheer her on.

"Don't make any noise!"

Xu Shaopeng called out.

The noisy gambling den suddenly fell silent.

All the gamblers looked at him.

Xu Shaopeng bowed to Shen Xuan.

"Xu Shaopeng of Ziqi Peak greets Senior Brother Shen of Xiaogu Peak."

"Third brother, remove the spirit-sealing talisman from Junior Sister Wu."

The third brother politely took out a talisman to dispel the evil spirits and slapped it on Wu Yuting.

The gamblers present were all shrewd individuals.

At this moment, everyone guessed that the dice tower must contain a "leopard" (three of a kind).

Shen Xuan slowly walked to the gambling table and took back the twelve thousand spirit stones on it.

"I remember now, my master forbids me from gambling."

He stuffed all the spirit stones into Wu Xueting's hands.

"Senior Brother Xu, it's getting late, my two junior sisters and I should head back now."

"Farewell, Senior Brother Shen! Third Brother, see the guest out for me!"

After Shen Xuan and the Wu sisters left.

At Xu Shaopeng's instruction.

The second brother opened the dice tower.

111.

It really is a "leopard"!
"Second brother, the bets will still be paid out."

After saying that, Xu Shaopeng turned around and went back to his room inside the gambling den.

He picked up the teapot and drank it mouth-to-mouth.

Then, he slammed the teapot to the ground.

They completely lacked the composed and calm demeanor of a distinguished family.

The second son pushed open the door and came in.

"Brother, I'm sorry."

Xu Shaopeng waved his hand.

"Second brother, it's alright. We're brothers, why be like this!"

"But do you know how he figured it out?"

The second son shook his head.

"The dice tower is fine."

"The dice are fine too."

"Unless I communicate with him, he shouldn't be able to see the dice rolls."

Xu Shaopeng sighed.

"Forget it! In the future, I'll avoid him. Shen Xuan is a bit strange!"

“Last time, Lei Yaoyang, a thunder magic cultivator in the sect, was tricked by him and lost face.”

“Brother is right. However, Shen Xuan ultimately has no powerful backing and dares not forge a deadly feud with our Purple Qi Alliance.”

……

After leaving the Silver Hook Gambling House.

Before her sister could speak, Wu Yuting asked, "Senior brother, what's going on?"

"Can you really read the numbers on the dice in the dice tower?"

Shen Xuan smiled but did not answer.
Actually, he couldn't see through it.

However, he can easily determine which one to bet on by using the options of "bringing in wealth and treasures" and "avoiding misfortune and seeking good fortune".

There's no need to explain these things so clearly.

"Senior brother, if you have such ability, why let that scoundrel Xu Shaopeng go!"

Wu Yuting said indignantly, "Win a few million spirit stones from him, and bankrupt him!"

"and then?"

Shen Xuan glanced at Wu Yuting.

"Blocking someone's path to wealth is like killing their parents. Xu Shaopeng fought us to the death!"

"I don't know if your Wu family is afraid, but I am very afraid."

"Master Ziqi only has Xu Shaopeng as his Foundation Establishment direct grandson. I can't withstand the Master's wrath!"

If Shen Xuan were to use his superb gambling skills to sweep through the Silver Hook Gambling House, win a million spirit stones, and force the Silver Hook Gambling House to close down, he could achieve his goal.

His fate was not good.

Wherever he goes, there will be people who want to kill him.

No one who runs a gambling den wants him to live like that.

Wu Yuting understood.

She's just greedy, not stupid.

In the blink of an eye, she looked at her older sister.

"Everyone who sees this gets a share! I want half of the spirit stones!"

"Pah! I asked my senior brother to rescue you, and you haven't paid me yet!"

The two sisters were playfully bickering.

Shen Xuan shook his head as he looked at it.

"Junior sisters, don't provoke the Purple Qi Alliance again. I'm going back!"

"Wait, senior brother, I..."

Shen Xuan pretended not to hear.

Use [Conceal Breath] and [Invisibility] to disappear from the spot.

When they reappeared, they were already at the gate of the immortal city.

After registering, he summoned the Golden Clawed Divine Eagle Corpse Beast and sped towards Little Lonely Peak.
