Immortal quest system

Chapter 170 The Gamble Begins

"Hehe, it's so vulgar to bet on money. Why don't you bet on your demon species...?"

"you……!"

In the depths of the Xianling Market in the southern suburb of Wengcheng, in a small shop, Chen Yao and his party were dumbfounded by a word from the shop owner.

"thump!"

"Yaoyaoyao, demon species!!!"

The monster who didn't know the truth was so frightened that he fell to the ground, pale with fright, staring at Chen Yao with a pair of eyes, with an inconceivable expression, and backed away with both hands and feet.

"I'm afraid of your size!"

Chen Yao gave Hu Yi an angry look, frowned and said, "If I wanted to eat you, I would have done it long ago! You are so fat, I don't want to eat it!"

Jiang Bo, who already knew the truth, was also very surprised. While comforting Hu Yi, he briefly told him the ins and outs of Chen Yao's acquisition of the demon species, while looking at the shop owner warily.

"How do you know that I have a demon species...?"

Chen Yao was also shocked. Ever since he came to Wengcheng, he has been hiding the fact that he owns a demon species.Whether it's an underground fighting arena, a gambling house, or a Tianyuan fighting arena, Chen Yao has always suppressed the demon species, not letting it be depressed, because he is afraid that people will know that he has amazing abilities. Immortal Dao, who also has a demon species, will be regarded as a different kind, and people will respect him at a distance.

"Ha ha……"

However, for some reason, the unattractive small shop owner in front of him immediately saw that Chen Yao was possessed by the demon species, and wanted Chen Yao to bet on the demon species, completely ignorant of his purpose.

"Finger Chen Yao, the boy from the Southern Region who has been famous in the Tianyuan Arena recently, is actually a demon." The owner of the small shop smiled charmingly, tapped a finger on the counter, and said: "If this If the truth is known by others, what a terrible uproar it will cause... Hehehehe..."

"What is your background...?!"

Chen Yao could see that the behavior of this person flicking the counter was obviously implying that he not only knew that Chen Yao had a demon species, but also knew how Chen Yao made thousands of winnings in Yongcai Gambling Shop before.With such a detailed understanding, could it be that this person has been following Chen Yao and his party since they came to Wengcheng? ?

"Do you think that no one will know your true identity because you are hiding in the world of monks?"

The owner of the small shop did not answer Chen Yao's question directly, but continued to smile evilly and said softly, "The underground demon king of the Cangyue Mountains?"

"you……!"

Now, Chen Yao was completely shocked.

The appearance of the person in front of him is not surprising, but every word he utters points directly to Chen Yao's deepest secrets. It can be said that he knows Chen Yao's past like the back of his hand!

It is possible to draw conclusions through tracking, analysis, testing and other methods of information such as demon species, winning money in gambling houses, and coming from the southern region of Dongzhou.

But even Jiang Bo didn't know the name "Underground Demon King of Cangyue Mountain Range". of!
But the person in front of him knows these unknown details clearly, as if he has a pair of eyes that can see through people's mind, and can read all of Chen Yao's secrets.

"You... have been to the Cangyue Mountains...!"

Chen Yao came to his senses all of a sudden, took a step forward, his eyes suddenly radiated boundless anger, and gritted his teeth: "Where is Yueer?! Where is Yueer? Did you kidnap Yueer?!!! Tell me! !"

"Hehehe, don't be impatient, young man..."

The shop owner still had an unfathomable smile, shook his head and said, "I can only tell you that I know 'some' information, not all of it."

"First of all, we didn't take your Qi Guan Yue'er away, but I have some clues related to Yue'er."

"Secondly, we know all the movements and things of you guys. We can't say everything is clear, but we know a general idea. Your whereabouts and experiences can't escape our eyes."

When the owner of the store said the word "we" several times, he deliberately emphasized the tone, as if to remind Chen Yao intentionally or unintentionally that he is not alone, and behind him, there is a huge group that is watching Chen Yao their every move.

"Tell me quickly! What are the clues related to Yue'er?!"

As soon as Yue'er was mentioned, Chen Yao's mood became uncontrollably agitated, anger rose in his eyes, and he wished to beat the person in front of him to find out the truth.

"If you want to know Yue'er's information, you can, but...!"

The owner of the shop suddenly sat up straight, opened his eyes, and a powerful and incomparable demon energy spurted out, instantly shocking all the people present.

"You have to gamble with me first!"

"What a powerful demonic aura...!"

The uneasiness in Chen Yao's heart became more and more intense. He knew that the person in front of him was extremely powerful, and he was not inferior to the great monster under the Cangyue Mountains.Judging from the boundless demonic aura it exudes, its strength may be close to Xu's level, which is very terrifying.

Although after that, Chen Yao has also achieved a great improvement, and his demon power is terrifying.But if he faced Xu again, Chen Yao still believed that he couldn't resist more than ten rounds.

"Don't be afraid, hehehe..."

Seeing that his deterrent had worked, the owner of the store immediately put away his evil spirit, squinted his eyes and smiled: "I am very addicted to gambling, so my request is very simple, as long as you bet with me, if you win, I will give you money." I will tell you everything I know, and you can use the spiritual herbs in the store."

"Then what if we lose?" Jiang Bo asked tentatively.

"If you lose..." The owner of the shop flashed that evil color in his eyes again, and said with a smile, "I will take your bet...!"

"Okay, that's fair."

Chen Yao calmed down, dragged a stool, sat in front of the boss, and asked, "What are you betting on?"

"You can bet on anything."

The owner of the shop lazily glanced back outside the shop door, and pointed out: "For example, the person at the door, which elixir do you think he will choose to buy in the end?"

Chen Yao and others heard the words and looked around, only to see a young man with the appearance of a monk picking out elixir at a stall on the street opposite the small shop.

In his left and right hands, he held a kind of elixir respectively, and seemed to be hesitating, not knowing which one to choose.

"Which one will I buy in the end..."

Chen Yao pondered for a while, and carefully observed the man's actions. He was obviously very hesitant, and the probability of choosing any one was around 50.00%.

After thinking about it again and again, Chen Yao just wanted to open his mouth to make a choice, but was preempted by the impatient Hu Yi.

"Isn't this just gambling?"

Hu Yigang recovered from the shock of the fact that Chen Yao owned a demon species. Obviously, he was not used to the strong demonic aura in this small shop. He just wanted to end the gambling game and leave here as soon as possible, and then grabbed Chen Yao and had a good time. Ask what is going on.Then he glanced at it casually, stretched out his hand and pointed blindly and said, "I bet he will choose the elixir on his left hand!"

"Oh……?"

Hu Yi stepped in suddenly, which made the owner of the store stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes, and said with an evil smile: "Very good, very good, refreshing enough."

"Then, I'll choose another one. I bet he will buy the elixir held in his right hand." The store owner glanced back at Hu Yi, turned around his chubby body, and said with a light smile: "You are the first to bet with me, and the bet is your heart."

"Crazy, whatever you want!" Hu Yi cursed angrily, looking at the choice of the person at the door.

"Very well, the bet...begins!"

The boss's words fell to the ground, and the nerves of the four people present tensed up instantly.

"Left hand, left hand, left hand, left hand!"

Hu Yi couldn't help shouting in a low voice, clenched his fists and waved slightly in the air, as if this could affect the buyer's choice.

"Hu Yi made the right choice."

Chen Yao was also inexplicably nervous at the back. After carefully looking at the two elixir plants, he nodded slightly and thought to himself: "The elixir held in the left hand is obviously fuller than the other plant, and its vitality and celestial energy reserve are a bit higher. Cut. If you read correctly, the prices of the two elixirs are the same, as long as you know a little bit about the basics of elixirs, you will choose the one on the left!"

Looking back at Jiang Bo, the latter also had a serious face and nodded slightly, apparently agreeing with Chen Yao.

"call."

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, the man finally let out a sigh of relief, bent down, and put his hands on the booth.

"Left hand, left hand, left hand, choose the left hand!!"

Hu Yi yelled loudly, almost being heard by the people at the door, but the shop owner didn't seem to care, still chuckled and shook his head, with an expression of everything under control.

"Boss, I want this plant."

To everyone's surprise, the young man threw down the elixir in his left hand, and then paid for the elixir in his right hand quickly.

"This... you are stupid!"

Hu Yi looked distressed, stomped his fat feet on the ground several times, and cursed angrily.

"It's okay, it's okay, there will always be people who don't know the goods, this is a gamble on the probability, there will always be winners and losers."

Jiang Bo persuaded Hu Yi from the side, but the latter was still annoyed and cursed loudly.

"Hehehe, you lost."

The store owner smiled slightly, pointed at Hu Yi and said, "He bought the elixir on his right hand, and I am the winner."

"So what!" Hu Yi glared at the boss angrily, and responded loudly.

"It's nothing, hehehe..." The boss sat up slightly, a demonic aura suddenly appeared in one hand, and said with a wicked smile: "I won, so naturally I will take away your bet...!"

"call!"

In an instant, before Chen Yao and Jiang Bo could even react, an unbelievably powerful demonic aura burst out, blasting out from the boss's fingertips, and went straight for Hu Yi.

"What are you doing...ahhh!!!"

Under the impact of the demonic energy, Hu Yi's whole body was entangled in the demonic energy, flying high, and then with a cruel sound of "噗嗤", the demonic energy rushed into Hu Yi's chest, tearing his heart out come out!

"Well……"

"thump"

Hu Yi's eyes lost their vitality in an instant, and his whole body softened, and he collapsed to the ground as the evil spirit left.

"Hu Yi!"

Both Chen Yao and Jiang Bo yelled and hurried forward to check.

"Hehehe..."

And behind them, the evil spirit returned to the finger of the owner of the store. With a soft sound, Hu Yi's bloody heart was put into an old clay pot, and the pot was sealed with a "bang". Gai, nowhere to be seen.
