In this moment of silence, someone at one of the tables shouted frantically, "No, no, no, how could I lose? I won't lose! I... I..."
He turned around and was about to run outside, but the masked men in black who were usually almost silent and had no sense of presence and were standing against the wall all around him suddenly stepped forward and the man was caught before he could run a few steps.
"I...I don't want to die...I don't want to die..."
The man struggled desperately, but it was in vain.
The people around him looked at him without any extra emotion.
It's like looking at a fool.
Baili Feiyue and Mu Qing saw that there was nothing they didn't understand. This person most likely used his own life as gambling stake, and then regretted it after losing.
Seeing those men in black pressing the man's head on the gambling table and about to chop it off, the other gamblers in the hall were not only not frightened or scared, but were excited instead.
“Cut, cut, cut!”
Amid the man's ghostly howling, and as he watched the sword about to chop him down, Mu Qing could not help but shout, "Wait!"
"I'm willing to accept the loss, but this is simply disregarding human life!"
The people around her looked at her as if she were a monster.
Mu Qing frowned slightly, "I know the rules of this underground dark city, but may I ask the city lord, are you going too far?"
The people around her now looked at her not only as a monster, but also as a fool.
What they didn't expect was that the person behind the curtain laughed softly.
Are you laughing?
Even for those of them who often come to the other world underground, today is the first time they have seen this so-called city lord!
Although it was the first time, in recent years, the city lord's style has become even more terrifying than before.
Now, he actually smiled!
Baili Feiyue frowned slightly and smiled a little, with murderous intent!
All that was heard was the city lord's smiling voice coming from behind the scenes, "Since this guest knows the rules, he should understand that this place is hell on earth."
The voice was full of smiles, a very pleasant and slightly low voice, "Hell on earth is not the earth - it's hell."
As he said this, with a "puff", the man who was struggling and howling not to die was instantly beheaded by the man in black beside him!
The smell of blood instantly spread and Mu Qing's face turned pale.
Suddenly, there was another burst of carnival in the hall.
The body of the man whose head had been chopped off was carried out like garbage.
The person behind the curtain spoke again, "So, after burning down the auction house, what do you plan to use in exchange?"
Mu Qing was really a little scared at this moment, and it was completely different from the confident mentality he had before.
After all, they are now on someone else's territory.
Far water cannot put out a nearby fire.
He stepped forward and said, "I was the one who burned down the auction house. City Lord, if you want anything, come to me."
This time it was Baili Feiyue who smiled and gently pulled her behind him.
"Are you stupid? What if they have bad intentions and include you in the crime just because of what you said? Wouldn't that be unfair to you?"
Mu Qing’s eyes widened.
It would be fine if she just admitted it, why did Ling Jing come out here!
She really wanted to crush her to death!
Baili Feiyue completely ignored Mu Qing's gaze and looked at the figure behind the curtain, "City Lord, in fact, I was the one who set the fire. I believe you have also found out clearly."
He looked around again, "Since the city lord is meeting us in the casino, he must have followed the casino's rules."
She was very direct, "Tell me, how do you bet?"
