Chapter 1278: Not Knowing the Highness of Heaven and the Thickness of Earth
The girl's face instantly became stiff, and her smile became very unnatural, but she silently withdrew her hand.
After all, the ice covering her arms was not fake. If she took another step forward, she would probably be frozen into snowflakes.
Yun Guiyue glanced at all the shops on the street. Not just the brothels, but all the shops were frantically trying to attract customers.
Feng Rong took a deep breath. "If you didn't know better, you'd think you'd walked into some goblin's cave. The people of the Ninth Continent are just too enthusiastic and crazy."
"I'm afraid it's not enthusiasm, but like the innkeeper, he has other motives."
Yun Guiyue knew that the owner of the inn was sent by someone from the palace, but there were several busy streets in the imperial capital, and the shops on each street looked the same.
These people... they can't all be sent by that strange person in the palace. Otherwise, wouldn't it be too strange with so many people coming and going in the palace every day?
So she speculated that only the innkeepers would be called into the palace by him, and these people must have their own purposes.
Yun Guiyue frowned and said, "Or... we can just go into any of them and see what they want to do."
"That can't be done casually..." Feng Rong said as he looked towards a gambling house.
"Just here, sister. I believe you."
There was a gleam in his eyes. His sister always won every time she gambled, and she would never lose money in a gambling house.
Yun Guiyue looked at the gambling house and nodded, "Okay."
"Very good!"
Feng Rong clapped his hands and entered the gambling house first. When the shopkeeper saw an outsider coming in, his eyes lit up instantly.
"Hey, come in quickly, our store has a wide variety of games, you can try any kind of gambling you want."
Feng Rong looked back at his sister's expression and asked in a low voice, "Sister, which one do you want to play?"
Yun Guiyue said, "You can choose whatever you want."
Feng Rong immediately ran to a table where they were comparing sizes, pointed at the shopkeeper and said, "I'll bet you one million high-grade spirit stones per round. You have to put your spirit stones on the table before you play. How about that?"
This arrogant tone immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the room, and everyone looked at Feng Rong with contempt.
It’s nothing, he’s just too frivolous.
Everyone here knows that the owner of this gambling house has the strongest gambling power, and no one dares to be so arrogant as to say that he wants to gamble with the owner.
Even if they wanted to gamble, no one would dare to say they wanted to bet so big.
But Feng Rong became more and more at ease under such suspicious gazes.
He knew that his sister would never allow him to lose.
When Yun Guiyue heard Feng Rong's voice, everything in front of her eyes went dark.
This damn boy really didn't give her any room to retreat.
But... since we have stolen so many spirit stones from the palace, we can afford to lose.
When the shopkeeper heard Feng Rong's words, a sarcastic smile flashed across his eyes.
He is indeed an outsider who has no idea of his own limitations.
He pretended to be embarrassed, "This... Young Master, my gambling skills are really too high. You... bet with me, and my victory is unfair."
Although he said this, the shopkeeper knew very well in his heart that this young master could not stand to hear such words. Although he was humble, he could not accept the fact that he would definitely lose.
