Gambling City’s Barrier

The die had been cast, except, this time, the gamblers were gambling with their lives.

Mu Yu turned to Wanwan. “You think you can win?”

Wanwan answered, “Depends.”

A gust suddenly blew, petals raining. Ximen Buxing hooked his arm around Wanwan’s hip and, in a carefree tone, teased, “I thought you’d handle it yourself, Wanwan. How disappointing. Your hips are more curvaceous.”

“Even so, you’re not allowed to touch.” Wanwan gently whacked Ximen Buxing’s hand off.

“Oops. Oh, Mu Yu and Tian Ran, look at you two.” Ximen Buxing held his hands together and made a thumb gesture. “Look at them, Wanwan. They’re seniors and juniors just like us. You should learn from them.”

While Tian Ran found Ximen Buxing annoying, Mu Yu was more used to the antics than he would have liked, therefore remained indifferent and joked, “Took you forever to get here, huh?”

“Can’t just sit idly by when Gambling City is involved, can I? Besides, I have a favour to repay.” Ximen Buxing casually twirled his hair by his shoulder then wiped his smirk off his face.

“Ximen Buxing, you’re feeling as generous as Mu Yu, are you? I won’t reject the offer,” scoffed Palace Guardian.

“Third Heaven Palace was behind the ‘favour’ at Twenty-Five Kilometres South Garden?” Ximen Buxing questioned.

“I was hoping to get rid of you two nuisances there. Well, they can be the bonus now that you two have shown yourselves.”

“Accosting somebody in public can be regrettable.” Ximen Buxing opened his fan to fan himself.

“Indeed, accosting me when this barrier is up is the epitome of idiocy.”

“How sad you forgot to upgrade your brain and lines while upgrading your cultivation. Mu Yu, I prefer your work better.”

“Must be your first time meeting them or something. I’m used to it,” Mu Yu replied.

Palace Guardian’s lips curved down as Ximen Buxing’s curved up. “I’ll make sure both of you never open your potty mouths again!”

Mu Yu abruptly stomped the ground, emanating red energy with him as the epicentre.

“Xie Bulay’s evil spirit?” exclaimed Palace Guardian, watching the red energy convert everything, including the barrier he erected, and grant them red eyes. “Impossible, he’s…”

“What sort of idiot thinks they’re the only one who knows how to adapt?” Mu Yu berated. “Try saying what you said again.”

“Wow, nice formation, Mu Yu,” Wanwan brightly complimented.

When Mu Yu first arrived at Gambling City, he immediately detected the sinister formation hidden in the city, and he later picked up its origin was Wanwan’s weapon – Evil Bell. He pieced it together, concluding Xie Bulao arranged everything to protect his disciples. Wanwan, on her own, could not stop an Apotheosis Realm cultivator with it for she had not reached Apotheosis Realm. Mu Yu, on the other hand, could harness the two’s full power as he had formation knowledge.

“Since you’re so eager to throw hands, let’s maximise the fun,” Mu Yu provoked.

“Fine by me. I’ll destroy your formation and force you to cry for mercy,” responded Palace Guardian. “Soul Style Luo Sound – Mad Darkness Seven Ends!”

The pair of eyes overhead stared straight back at the seven snakes that attacked the barrier, unshaken.

“Clown, thinking you can outdo Elder Xie Bulao.”

“Haha… Hahaha, one victory and you let it get to your head. Who’s the idiot here?” Palace Guardian fired back, suppressing his rage.

“Your race is incapable of learning, I see,” Mu Yu insulted.

“Why should we care for insects?”

Mu Yu smirked and then cast a green formation in his hand, lacing all of the denizens in his formation.

“I won!”

“I won!”

“I won!”

The illusion Mu Yu conjured ecstatic images in the targets’ minds, lifting up their moods. As a result, Palace Guardian’s soul energy receded, revealing his true appearance.

“Let the celebration officially commence.”

Mu Yu and Tian Ran raised their swords up, calling down two red beams from the red eyes in the firmament!
