Chapter 25: The only person who can be considered a close friend of Night Walker Six is ​​you...

"Dear guest, where is your invitation?"

The fox-masked disciple seemed to be smiling, and his tone was gentle but cold, which was very strange and creepy.

Ji Lingche said, "You are so blind! Do distinguished guests like us really need invitations?"

After saying this, she strode towards the door. The man didn't try to stop her. Instead, he stared at her with a piercing gaze and a faint smile, "I advise you not to force your way in."

"You distinguished guests have come from illicit backgrounds. If I report this to the master, I will send you all to the Eighteen Hells."

Ji Lingche stopped behind him and said, "Eighteen levels of hell? What kind of new attraction is that? Does it include food?"

Seeing that these people came with bad intentions and were invulnerable to swords and guns, the fox-masked man snorted coldly and raised his hand to touch his forehead. However, Qing grabbed his wrist and interrupted the spell. The powerful spiritual pressure shocked the doorman and made him unable to move.

Ji Lingche looked at Qing approvingly, then smiled faintly at the fox mask and said, "Don't rush to complain. We can talk it out. Who is your master? Is it Gu Chaoyin, the owner of this building?"

The fox mask was grabbed by the wrist, and only then did he realize that the situation was not good. He saw the man's face opposite him was completely disfigured and horrifying. He couldn't help but breathe heavier.

This man could easily strangle him to death.

This disciple was probably regretting his underestimation of the enemy. He thought, if he had known these people were so difficult to deal with, he should have called out the tiger...

Seeing that he didn't answer, Ji Lingche said, "That's fine. Anyway, we will see your master soon."

The fox-masked disciple sneered, his tone cold, "Dear guest, please don't seek death. Listen to my advice and go back to where you came from—"

The man with the fox mask was about to say something when Qing suddenly punched him in the face!

Suddenly, the disciple stopped talking. He paused, and the mask covering his face cracked with a "snap" sound, and pieces of it fell to the ground, revealing the true face behind the mask - it was an extremely young face.

His eyes were empty and lifeless, as if his soul had been taken away. He shook himself, and finally fell backwards to the ground with a thud, without a sound.

Qing walked past Ji Lingche with a cold face and went straight into the door.

Ji Lingche said in surprise: "Wow, great strength can make miracles happen!"

"...But why are you so harsh? Are you so sure that this person is useless?"

Qing said coldly: "This person's spiritual power just fluctuated. I don't know how he delivered the message. There is no time to lose, we must leave immediately!"

Linghu Jin stole a glance at the unconscious disciple, and felt a sense of sympathy for him.

The gatekeeper looked like a teenager, but when the mask fell off, it was revealed that he was so young. His unconscious face was completely different from the impression given by the strange mask. There was no trace of cunning on his face, and he even looked a bit childish.

Linghu Jin wordlessly snapped his fingers to protect his vital meridians to prevent his spirit from dissipating. Ji Lingche smiled faintly: "Have you seen this man?"

Linghu Jin was stunned, looked at Ji Lingche, and muttered, "I don't recognize him."

As they talked, they walked towards the door together. As soon as they stepped into the door, it seemed that some formation was activated, and their eyes suddenly lit up -

A huge light and shadow rushed towards them, and Linghu Jin and Qing couldn't help but gasp. They saw that the scene had changed from hell to the clouds.

I saw that there were seven or eight floors here, and the golden light and shadow were like flowing gold, as if all the wealth and fortune were within reach. The dazzling light made people excited and stimulated their fighting spirit.

Looking up, I saw people swaying on the corridor. There were countless private rooms, but few customers. Most of the people gathered on the first floor, surrounding several huge round tables. At each table, there were two people gambling, and the rest of the people were betting. It was extremely noisy and crazy.

The sound of the dice rolling was all I could hear. The winners roared and screamed, their faces flaming with fury. The losers clutched their heads and howled, wailing and wailing. They tried to kill themselves with knives, but were pinned down by people wearing all sorts of animal masks. Some cheated, some denied their crimes, and were pinned down, their hands and feet chopped off. Their mutilated bodies, dead or alive, were wrapped in straw mats by the masked men and thrown somewhere unknown...

"I'm betting on the Feiyun Sect... the entire sect's fortune for the next twenty years!"

I saw a monk in a purple robe gritting his teeth and clenching his hands tightly, as if he was betting his entire fortune.

As soon as these words were spoken, the people on the opposite side gasped, but in the hall, cheers broke out, and people started to instigate the dealer on the opposite side.

"Boss Xue, Sect Leader Lin has invested a lot of money. If you don't offer equal conditions, it won't work!"

The cultivator surnamed Xue had won several games in a row and was in a state of extreme excitement. No matter what the opponent did, he would follow without hesitation. He clenched his fists and said, "Then I will also bet the Stone Gang's fortune for twenty years!"

With a soft laugh, the dealer girl wearing a rabbit mask said, "That won't do. You must offer chips of equal value. His Feiyun Sect is a well-known sect. Even if your Stone Gang staked their luck for a thousand years, it wouldn't be enough."

Gang Leader Xue hesitated for a long time, and the people around him started to jeer: "Are you going to follow us or not? If not, get out of here!"

"Hey, what are you going to do if you don't have any chips——"

Gang Leader Xue's face flushed red. He had already won too much that night. He knew in his heart that even if he was lucky, it wouldn't last forever. This time, it was his turn to lose... How could a general always win?!

Although he thought so, he was too addicted to gambling to stop.

He suddenly clenched his fist, raised his hand to the air, and said shockingly: "I bet... on the fortune of my descendants, millions of people!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room sighed, as if they had not expected him to bet so big, and everyone applauded and cheered.

At this time, someone said, "Wait a minute, you old immortal, what if you die without an heir? How much is the luck of your descendants worth?"

Another person sneered, "You're just too ignorant. Our Gang Leader Xue is a broke bastard, but he has a wonderful son who's thriving in the Immortal Alliance! Forget about the fortune of all his descendants, he's already taking care of his son alone!"

Everyone burst into laughter when they heard this: "Come and see, this is truly a great dad!"

"His luck has been ruined by gambling, and his son's fortune has plummeted. This once-proud son of heaven will soon become a pariah. Let's wait and see whether he goes crazy or dies..."

The dealer girl wearing the rabbit head mask nodded with satisfaction and held out two gambling cups. "Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are determined by heaven, and destiny is all contained in the cups. Please, my two distinguished guests!"

The two of them took it, and the dice began to roll. Everyone held their breath in concentration.

Linghu Jin and Qing had never seen this kind of gambling before. Ordinary gambling was just gambling on money and things. No matter how big the bet was, it was just gambling on one's life and property. How come here it was a bet on cultivation and luck?

“Open, open, open!”

"Open quickly!"

The two men shook their gambling cups amid the crowd's cheers, and the outcome was about to be revealed.

Linghu Jin's eyes suddenly moved slightly, and she was shocked. She found that when the two of them were distracted, Ji Lingche had already disappeared.

Linghu Jin suddenly looked up and saw a person leaning on the railing on the top floor. He felt as if his heart had stopped and he couldn't take his eyes off it.

I saw a man looking down leisurely, with a gambler's crazy look on his face, his eyes never leaving the gambling tables, his body leaning forward slightly, his palms slightly opened with the outcome of the gambling games, as if he wanted to hold something.

He clearly looks like a nobleman, but his clothes are slightly open and he looks a bit unruly, as if he is indulging in sensual pleasures and being too self-indulgent.

The person was extremely beautiful, with a kind of beauty that was difficult to tell whether he was male or female, pure and thin, like a piece of snow drifting in the wind.

He wore a delicate monocle on his nose, which shimmered with light and slightly obscured his slender eyes. From time to time, he would push the lens with his hand, staring intently at the gambling games...

The owner of Baiyu Tower, Gu Chaoyin!

Linghu Jin thought, it must be correct.

The next moment, she saw a golden figure suddenly flash by. The person moved very quickly, grabbed the collar of the building owner, and dragged him backwards. Gu Chaoyin staggered a few steps and was dragged out of Linghu Jin's sight as if he had no power to fight back!

In an instant, several waiters wearing pure black masks appeared from nowhere, with black long swords close to their bodies. Like ghosts, they sensed something unusual and jumped up the stairs silently and quickly.

Qing whispered, "Not good! These people are from the White Jade Tower, and they are at least at the Golden Core stage!"

If they really had to fight, they would definitely not gain any benefits, but they couldn't ignore it. The two of them felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, and just as they were about to take action -

I saw the host appear in front of the railing again!

Gu Chaoyin looked normal, except that the monocle was missing and his hair was a little messy. He smoothed his hair with one hand and waved the other lazily.

Those ghostly secret guards paused.

After confirming again and again whether their building owner was under duress, Gu Chaoyin made a strange gesture, like some kind of secret signal, and the secret guards received the order and disappeared in an instant.

Gu Chaoyin gathered back the hair that was hanging in front of her eyes, and her expression was listless and decadent, as if she was floating in the air.

He glanced lazily at Linghu Jin and Qing, opened his mouth wide, but no sound came out, only his lips opened and closed exaggeratedly.

Linghu Jin and the others saw clearly that what the man said was...

"have fun."

......

Ji Lingche leaned lazily on a soft couch, moving the monocle back and forth in front of his eyes, trying to hang it in front of his eyes.

Unfortunately, the eye sockets were not deep enough, so she could not hold it up. She could only hold it up with one hand and look out through the lens.

She looked at the cabinet in front of her, but what caught her eye were the objects placed in the cabinet.

His eyes moved slightly again, and his sight swept over the spirit bird standing on a thin log and licking its feathers, but he could not see any feathers of the bird. He only saw the exquisite blood vessels all over the bird's body, with bright red blood flowing through them.

The crisscrossing blood vessels tightly wrapped around the internal organs, and Ji Lingche was secretly amazed.

Holding the lens further away, the tiny blood vessels could no longer be seen. Only a tiny heart was beating before her eyes, pumping blood throughout the body with each beat...

If you move the lens further away, you can see the peacock-blue skin. The lines on the smooth flesh are clearly visible, and the exquisiteness of life is in full view.

Ji Lingche slowly put down the lens and looked at the bird again. It was still a bird with shiny and colorful feathers. He was secretly amazed and looked at the lens again.

Just then, a person walked in slowly. She put the lens in front of her eyes and looked at the person.

But unlike looking at animals, Ji Lingche did not see any meridians or blood vessels, only a white mist. Then the hazy mist in the mirror seemed to gather into a human shape. Before Ji Lingche could figure out what was going on, the lens in her hand was snatched away.

Gu Chaoyin held the lens in his hand and reached out to brush the hair in front of his eyes. He had a somewhat morbid beauty, and his voice was cool and pleasant. But as soon as he opened his mouth, his elegant demeanor was gone, and his personal qualities were exposed: "Country bumpkin, do you understand? Why do you keep fiddling with it?"

Ji Lingche looked up at him and spat, his manners touching: "You gambler, you deserve to have your hands and feet chopped off, rolled up like a rotten mat, and thrown out to feed the dogs."

Gu Chaoyin laughed and said, "Even if you were torn to pieces, you would still be able to keep your mouth open and jump on the ground."

She leaned back on the soft couch, raised an eyebrow and looked at him: "Fifty years ago, you bet your entire family fortune on a sword bet with me, and ended up losing it all. If I didn't look down on your meager possessions, you wouldn't be a millionaire, you would have become a pauper long ago. You promised to follow my orders and die for me, but now you don't mean it?"

Gu Chaoyin pointed at her with her slender finger and cursed with a smile, "Bah, you dirty-hearted bastard! You teamed up with that Yin the charlatan to cheat me, and you still have the nerve to bring this up? Since you're cheating, it's naturally not counted!"

As he was speaking, the monocle in his hand was taken away by Ji Lingche. She pinched the lens between her fingertips and said, "Oh? Then what is this? I'm asking you, what is this?"

"You still have the nerve to accuse me of cheating?"

"It seems like you, a gambler, are no longer satisfied with simply cheating with magic. With this kind of good stuff, I'm afraid you can even see clearly what the other party is thinking——"

Gu Chaoyin was about to grab it, but Ji Lingche flashed and put the lens into his sleeve, saying with a smile: "I have confiscated it, it belongs to me."

Gu Chaoyin flicked her hair and smiled bitterly, "You're so wicked! You're trying to take advantage of me?"

Ji Lingche: "What else? I said I miss you, do you believe me?"

Gu Chaoyin said, "You guys, your temper really hasn't changed at all. You're still so evil and still behave like this. Are you planning to die and come back to life, and then die again?"

Ji Lingche suddenly slammed the table and said, "I haven't even had time to ask you, and you bumped into me first!"

"My return to the spirit world must be related to Yin Lanxin, right? Also, why are you in this ghost town? What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to make fun of me?"

"If you can't explain it today, I'll skin you alive."

Gu Chaoyin paused, then smiled and said, "To be honest, I don't know either."

"Ten years ago, Yin Lanxin asked me if I wanted you to come back."

Gu Chaoyin slowly sat down opposite Ji Lingche. Although her tone was smiling, it was mixed with a hint of bitterness.

"I thought about it for a long time and said, 'You are a bad, immoral, and perverse person, and you are very annoying. But I, Gu Chaoyin, also have a strange personality and don't have many friends. The only people who can be considered close friends are you, a rotten person, and her sickly girl.' So I told her that if I can save you, I am willing to do anything."

Ji Lingche glanced at him. He met her gaze calmly and smiled, saying, "Yin Lanxin, the master of all calculations, and Ji Guanlan, the sword that slashes mountains and rivers. Although you two ended up in such an ugly situation, I know she doesn't hate you and won't harm you."

"So I did as she said and built a tower in the city to ward off evil spirits and avoid the cold. This place is cold and gloomy, and I can't stand it. But Yin Lanxin also said that you would definitely come into this tower to find me. I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to find me, so I stayed here all the time-"

Gu Chaoyin smiled and said, "I did this for you. You must be touched, right?"

Ji Lingche looked at him speechlessly.

Gu Chaoyin then asked, "Are you satisfied with my explanation? Are you going to peel off my skin?"

Ji Lingche said after a long while, "I believe you 80%."

Gu Chaoyin smiled lazily: "Oh, that's possible."

"But--"

She leaned forward, tapping her fingers on the rosewood chopping board in front of her, neither fast nor slow.

She stared at Gu Chaoyin without blinking, her eyes burning, and after a long moment she said, "But I really can't understand why you want to sell me out."

Gu Chaoyin was not surprised and looked at her seriously.

At this moment, there was a commotion downstairs, and a murderous aura permeated the entire building!

Ji Lingche showed no fear, but just sneered: "Reminiscing about the past with me and flirting with me are just a way to buy time. In fact, I am tipping off Yan Jinchen and asking him to come and arrest me——"

"Chao Yin, ah Chao Yin, why do you want to be Yan Jinchen's dog and sell me out like this?"
