Chapter 657 - Deciding Outcome

Chapter 657: Deciding Outcome

At this point, Ling Yun’s phone sounded, and he received a short message. Ling Yun took a peek at his phone, and it was actually sent by Tang Meng.

“Hehe, Big Brother Yun, let me guess… I bet you’re lying in bed now, right? Haha, how does it feel hugging girls on your left and right?”

Tang Meng was like a roundworm inside Ling Yun’s stomach. Back then, Ling Yun left with Xu Bingyan and Yanzi, so Tang Meng was naturally able to guess what was going to happen.

Ling Yun instantly sent a message back, scolding Tang Meng. “Tang Meng, is your skin getting itchy because I haven’t beaten you in so many days?”

Tang Meng pleaded for mercy jokingly before speaking in a serious tone, messaging back, “Big Brother Yun, the five people who came to win money at our Green Dragon’s casino are back again. They are currently gambling at the big casino in Qingxi. Do you want to come over and take care of them?”

Ling Yun furrowed his brows as he asked, “Those guys are back after half a month? They didn’t leave Qingshui? Courting death!”

The five gambling masters managed to win over eighty million in less than a week across all the big and small casinos owned by Green Dragon. Just when Ling Yun was about to make his move, the five of them left and never came back. Who knew that they would be back again today?

If he didn’t deal with them now, when was he going to do it? Ling Yun immediately replied to Tang Meng and informed him to wait for him at the entrance of the Ordinary People’s Clinic.

After putting down his phone, Ling Yun turned to Xu Bingyan on the bed to say, “Big Sister Xu, someone is causing trouble in Green Dragon’s territory. I have to head over now.”

When Xu Bingyan saw that Ling Yun got a message, she initially thought it was one of Ling Yun’s women looking for him. She was inwardly depressed for a while, but when she heard that it wasn’t one of them, her face lit up instantly.

“Go and do what you have to do. Don’t worry about Big Sister, I’m fine…”

Ling Yun nodded. “Big Sister Xu, I’ll arrange for Tang Meng to settle your business for you. You can do whatever you want without worrying about getting into trouble in the future.”

With the protection from the legal world and underworld in Qingshui City, who would dare mess with Xu Bingyan’s business? This was, of course, unless the offender was blind.

Ling Yun explained himself clearly before leaving Xu Bingyan’s house.

…

Very soon, Ling Yun arrived at the Ordinary People’s Clinic, where Tang Meng was already waiting. He didn’t even get out of the car as both cars, one in front of the other, headed towards a remote location.

Since it was a large-scale underground casino, it was definitely not going to be operating in the flourishing urban district. This was common logic.

In the western suburban district, there was a very quiet but large courtyard that was currently brightly lit. There were all kinds of cars, including limousines and ordinary cars, parked in front of the entrance. In fact, there were even electric-powered cars… One could imagine the variety of people inside.

This was, of course, one of Green Dragon’s large underground casinos, which was filled with a large number of gambling addicts.

When Ling Yun and Tang Meng arrived, they found parking spots for themselves. As they neared the entrance of the courtyard, they saw Tie Xiaohu and Abing waiting for them. There was also another person who looked to be in his mid-thirties with an average built and ordinary looks. He looked incredibly lackluster, and he was the kind you wouldn’t be able to recognize when thrown into a crowd of people.

This person was called Gong Hongguang, from Green Dragon’s Human Sect. He was the faction head of the Faith faction. His main business was to run nightclubs and casinos. Even though he didn’t look all that impressive, his net worth was over 300 million, and the casino before them belonged to him.

“Brother Yun!”

Tie Xiaohu and Abing hurried forward to greet Ling Yun as well as to introduce Gong Hongguang to Ling Yun.

“You can call me Ling Yun…”

Ling Yun saw how Gong Hongguang opened his mouth but had no idea how to address him, so he simply smiled faintly. He told him that he could address him by his name.

Ling Yun noticed that even though Gong Hongguang looked ordinary and lifeless, he was merely putting up such an appearance to throw people off. The fact was that people like that were always the most astute, and he even had a pair of extremely slender and flexible hands. The nails of his hands were perfectly trimmed, so he was evidently a gambling master.

“This… This doesn’t seem right…” Gong Hongguang replied worriedly.

He addressed Tie Xiaohu as Boss, so how could he address Tie Xiaohu’s boss by his actual name? Therefore, Gong Hongguang didn’t dare address him directly.

Abing commented, “You can just address Big Brother Yun as Boss. As long as Big Brother Yun is here, he will always be Green Dragon’s Boss, no one else!”

Gong Hongguang bowed respectfully thrice before saying, “Greetings, Boss!”

Ling Yun nodded helplessly, eventually agreeing to it. He got back to the topic at hand as he entered the courtyard.

“What are they playing tonight?” Ling Yun asked casually.

“Dice, chuck-a-luck…” Gong Hongguang answered.

“And they win every round?”

“Ever since they appeared in Qingshui City, they have never lost once…”

“Did you find out whether they’re cheating?”

“No… Each one of the five people has their own specialty: dice, mahjong, pai gow, poker… They take turns playing, and they manage to win with their true gambling skills. Therefore, all we can do is compete with them on the gambling table… However, our skills aren’t as good as theirs!”

“This is interesting! How much have they won tonight?” Ling Yun’s lips twitched as he smiled.

“They have only been here for a while and have won six million dollars already…” Gong Hongguang clenched his teeth, and even though he had money, he couldn’t afford losses like that. If it wasn’t for the fact that Green Dragon couldn’t find a reason to throw those people out, they would have gotten rid of them long ago. Regardless of where they came from, they were clearly here to mess things up.

Of course, Ling Yun had also greeted them and told them to win as much as they could. Ling Yun was prepared to take care of them personally.

“Don’t worry, I’ll make them spit out a hundred times what they won earlier!” Ling Yun remained calm as he spoke.

After entering the casino, Ling Yun arrived at the table the five men were at while following Gong Hongguang. He casually found an empty seat and sat down.

At this moment, four of the five men were standing, while one of them was seated and gambling. It was a youth around 26 years of age with a rather pale face and jug ears. His eyes looked extremely calm and composed. The chips he won in front of him were already stacked pretty high.

Standing behind the youth and in front of the four men was an exceptionally beautiful woman with a fiery hot figure. Her smile was filled with contempt, and she was evidently very charming.

Everyone in this casino was a frequent visitor, and those who weren’t wouldn’t even dare to set foot in here. Therefore, everyone present understood that the five people were there to create a scene. Now that the members of Green Dragon were here, all of them gathered to watch the inevitable show.

Before Ling Yun’s arrival, the youth was the only player gambling against the banker at that table. When the spectators saw that this youth was winning every single round, they wanted to put money on him to win. However, all they did was spectate because they were simply too worried about Green Dragon’s power.

After Ling Yun sat down, he scanned the five people before staring right at the youth opposite him. He smiled faintly and said, “Friend, you’ve earned a lot already, yeah? Shouldn’t you take your winnings and leave now? You don’t have to go all out and eradicate this place, right?”

The youth replied faintly, “I’m certainly not going to eradicate this place, but since you guys dare to operate a casino here, you should be willing to accept our bets. If you can’t take it, you should have closed down a long time ago…”

Evidently, the youth also knew that the real owner was here as he stared right back into Ling Yun’s eyes. He was clearly trying to see through Ling Yun, but this proved to be too difficult. What kind of person was Ling Yun?

Ling Yun laughed and said, “Since this is the case, it seems like we have to gamble, right? But I wonder if you brought enough chips to gamble… I’m afraid you can’t afford to lose it all…”

“One billion dollars! If you’re capable, feel free to win it all!” The youth let out a natural smile that showed all of his teeth.

“One billion? There are a total of five of you, so how much can you afford to lose by yourself? Two hundred million?” Ling Yun felt that this was indeed getting interesting.

“You’re very smart, but of course, I can afford to lose much more…” The youth was still smiling.

Ling Yun nodded. “Alright, we shall gamble two hundred million in one hand. Do you dare?” Ling Yun challenged him.

The smile on the youth’s face froze. Ling Yun had just arrived, and he could tell how extraordinary he was. However, he never expected Ling Yun to challenge him to just one bet.

The expressions of the four other gambling masters behind him changed drastically as well. They started discussing the matter softly.

Ling Yun turned back to look at Gong Hongguang.

“Boss Gong, can you afford to lose two hundred million?” Ling Yun asked.

“I can! If I add up everything I have, I can afford to lose at most six hundred million!” Gong Hongguang answered Ling Yun honestly.

Ling Yun turned back and smiled at the five people opposite him. “Look, we can afford to lose six hundred million, and that’s enough to play three rounds with you guys…”

“If you dare, hurry up and tell me. Otherwise, take the eighty million you won from Qingshui City and scram back to wherever you came from! However, you have to leave this place by crawling out of here fully naked!”

Ling Yun intentionally stared at the exceptionally beautiful woman in the middle of the five people.

“Tsk! Just one bet to decide the winner? Xiao Wu, go ahead and gamble with him!” Indeed, Ling Yun’s last sentence was enough to anger the woman, who glared at Ling Yun while saying that!
