Gu Long's World: Starting with the Legend of Chu Liuxiang

The town was brightly lit and bustling with people; its liveliness even surpassed that of temple fairs in Beijing.

Some people come here to gamble all night, while others simply come to join in the fun, because the casino is operating at a loss.

If someone goes there to gamble, the house pays them off as usual if they win, and if they lose, they can simply kowtow a few times and leave.

Let alone gambling addicts, even ordinary people would think this is a windfall.

The closer the four got to the casino, the more they noticed the people on the street were all beaming with joy, but nine out of ten of them didn't seem to be behaving properly.

This gambling method, which requires no initial investment, attracted local thugs and ruffians from within a hundred miles. The sound of kowtowing could be heard constantly inside the casino, while people outside discussed how much silver they had earned that day.

Little Fish could only think of one person in the world who was so fond of gambling and unafraid of losing money.

Just then, three beautiful women suddenly stepped out from among a group of thugs.

Pedestrians on the street stopped in their tracks, and those who had been talking loudly just moments before fell silent.

Everyone was staring at the three women, because they were so dazzling and beautiful that it was almost impossible to breathe.

The three women all had oval faces, cherry lips, and their eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar, making them look like sisters.

Hundreds of people were staring at them from inside and outside the town. Not to mention in a small town like this, even in the capital, such women are not common.

Ladies from respectable families rarely go out, and even when they do, they always conceal themselves. Even if a thug only catches a glimpse of such a stunning beauty, he feels that the money he has won at the casino is missing something.

Although the pedestrians on the street were watching, none of them dared to approach rashly, because behind them were several burly men carrying several large boxes.

Behind these burly men were more people; four of them were carrying a large sedan chair, and it was unclear who was inside.

Would such a stunning woman really come to a casino to gamble?

Although the gamblers forgot about gambling and stared intently at the three women, Xiaoyuer dared not look directly at them. Normally, if he encountered a beautiful woman on the street, Xiaoyuer would not only dare to stare at her, but also dare to go up and get to know her.

The reason why Xiaoyuer was acting so strangely was because he had frightened the younger sister of these three women into becoming mentally impaired.

"Check-in!"

"Signing in to Murong Liu successfully, you have received one thousand taels of silver, which has been deposited into the system space and can be withdrawn at any time."

"Signing in to Murong Qi successfully, you have received one thousand taels of silver, which has been deposited into the system space and can be withdrawn at any time."

"Signing in to Murong Ba successfully, you have received one thousand taels of silver, which has been deposited into the system space and can be withdrawn at any time."

Jiang Fengyue looked at Xiaoyuer, who was trying to hide, and sighed. These three people did look very similar to Murong Jiu. If you recognized one of the Murong sisters, you would easily recognize the other two.

Xiao Yu'er dared not step forward, but Jiang Fengyue did, simply because he was Murong Jiu's savior.

Jiang Fengyue slowly walked up to the three Murong sisters. This time, hundreds of eyes stopped looking at the three sisters and instead focused on Jiang Fengyue.

The gamblers were amazed by Jiang Fengyue's audacity; she was willing to risk her life just to catch a glimpse of her beauty up close.

Jiang Fengyue smiled slightly and said, "Hello, has Murong Jiu's condition improved?"

The three Murong sisters stared wide-eyed as they looked the person in front of them up and down.

If Jiang Fengyue had only mentioned Murong Jiu, they wouldn't have thought much of it, as there were many people in the martial arts world who knew the Murong family. But now that Jiang Fengyue mentioned Murong Jiu's illness, they had to take it seriously.

Murong Liu stared intently at Jiang Fengyue and asked, "May I ask who this young master is?"

Jiang Fengyue replied, "My name is Jiang Fengyue."

Upon hearing this name, the three Murong sisters relaxed their tense expressions and smiled sweetly.

Murong Qi smiled and said, "So it's Young Master Jiang. My younger sister has mentioned you before. If it weren't for your help back then, I don't know who would be in her hands now."

Murong Ba said, "Our Murong family will never forget your kindness, young master. If you need any help, you can always ask any of us sisters for assistance."

Jiang Fengyue asked in surprise, "So you're saying Murong Jiu's illness is cured?"

He wondered to himself if it was because he had channeled his inner energy into Murong Jiu that her madness had healed so quickly.

Murong Liu smiled and said, "My younger sister is in the sedan chair behind us right now. If it weren't for something urgent, she would definitely come out to thank you in person."

Hearing Murong Liu say this, Jiang Fengyue knew that Murong Jiu's condition had indeed improved, and that he had even retained his memories from his period of madness.

Jiang Fengyue sighed, "So you've made such a big fuss to come to this casino just to find Black Spider."

Upon hearing this name, Murong Liu looked somewhat troubled and said, "Ninth Sister has already decided that she will marry no one but him in this life. If we don't come, she might come on her own."

Jiang Fengyue said, "I know it must have been Black Spider who sent Murong Jiu back to you, but why did Black Spider send her there and then leave himself?"

Murong Qi said, "Because when Ninth Sister was sent back, although her condition had improved, she still looked dazed and confused, and we were worried..."

Jiang Fengyue said, "You were worried that Murong Jiu would be tricked by Black Spider, and you also looked down on Black Spider, thinking that he was not worthy to be your Murong family's son-in-law, so you gave Black Spider some silver to send him away."

The three Murong sisters seemed to have been hit where it hurt by Jiang Fengyue, and they were all speechless.

After a long pause, Murong Qi finally spoke weakly, "We gave him five thousand taels of gold, but he didn't accept it..."

Jiang Fengyue said, "Black Spider risked his life to save Murong Jiu time and time again, was it for your worthless junk?"

Murong Qi said, "We just don't know what Ninth Sister's wishes are. After all, she's a simple-minded person; she'll say whatever others teach her. Who knew..."

Murong Ba sighed, "Who knew that after Black Spider left, Ninth Sister's condition suddenly worsened. She wouldn't say a word all day long, and if she did, it would always be to ask, 'Has he left?'"

Murong Liu also sighed and said helplessly, "Later on, Ninth Sister stopped saying those words altogether and just sat there crying every day."

Murong Ba's expression was complicated. He continued, "Only now do we truly understand her feelings. We also know that everything in this world can be forced, but the word 'love' cannot be forced."

Murong Liu said, "Then one day, Ninth Sister suddenly woke up as if she had suddenly become enlightened. As soon as she woke up, she rushed out of the house like a madwoman to find Black Spider."

Murong Qi said, "We used many connections and searched for many people in the martial arts world before we finally found out that Black Spider was here."

Jiang Fengyue laughed and said, "So you brought enough gambling money just to take Black Spider back to marry Murong Jiu."

Murong Qi smiled and nodded, "Not bad."
