Chapter 237 Practice Makes Perfect



This time, Xinniang didn't use any of those fancy tricks.

After placing six dice in the bowl, gently shake it while pressing down on the bowl.

After dawdling for a while, he suddenly stopped.

Well, the whole thing lacked any real presence.

Unlike Qin Zhaoyue, who immediately started repeating the action the moment she stopped.

She was as dashing as ever, hesitating a few times before immediately detaining it.

At that moment, her body froze for a split second.

Not only Qin Zhaoyue, but also Sui Mo on the left suddenly became dazed.

Dou Zhan sensed something amiss, but his body had already been exposed to far too many poisons, making it far more resistant than ordinary people.

The slight dizziness I felt was immediately suppressed, and the impact was negligible.

As for the hibernating creatures, they simply don't react at all.

Just as Qin Zhaoyue's hand froze and the dice were about to leave the container, she suddenly snapped back to reality at the most crucial moment.

The dice cup was pressed down forcefully, but the dice did not escape control.

She squinted, her first thought being the sweet, cloying fragrance she had smelled in the bamboo grove when she entered Chengyuan Garden.

It might be a complex toxin; a single smell won't have much of an effect, but you need to use a second one to wash it all out.

The opponent was known for his gambling skills, and we were on guard against his cheating methods, but we never expected him to use an off-the-board trick.

It's possible that I held my breath as soon as I caught a whiff of the smell, which caused the stiffness to last only a very short time.

But if it's a gamble involving life and death, a momentary "mistake" at the crucial moment can change the outcome.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and a complete falling out was imminent.

Xinniang remained calm.

Given the dice were almost out of control just now, even if you managed to press down the dice cup at the last moment, there would be absolutely no way to manipulate the dice.

Even if one uses cheating techniques, the hasty reaction would make it impossible to accurately control the points.

So, this game is a sure win!

She subconsciously licked the corner of her mouth; she was already getting excited.

"What are you waiting for, Goddess of Gamblers' sister? Time to open the pot!"

Sui Mo's expression was not good, and his eyes were filled with turmoil.

From the middle and later stages of the disaster relief efforts, the Mo Group was only able to provide some functional assistance, and its ability to provide protection was already insufficient.

This includes herself.

Now, Suimo feels the same sense of powerlessness again.

He clenched his fist quietly; breaking through his cultivation level was imminent!

Iron-Scaled Buddha kept a close eye on the opposite side.

The reactions of the "God of Gamblers" and the person on the right were as expected; although brief, both showed signs of physical stiffness.

However, the other two were completely unaffected!

Xinniang had given him a hint beforehand, so his attention was mainly focused on the two people's eyes.

What most people don't know is that, in addition to her gambling skills, Xin Niang is also highly skilled in using poison.

All the new bamboo shoots in Chengyuan have been trained by her, and they never cause any trouble.

Even if the poison she used this time could control her body, one could still tell from her eyes whether it had affected her.

Even if you don't inhale the scent of the purple bamboo forest, it will seep into your body through your skin, making it impossible to avoid.

Therefore, Iron Scale Buddha focused more than 80% of his attention on the eyes of the two people opposite him.

But from beginning to end, neither of their eyes showed the slightest tremor!

If they knew in advance how Xinniang poisoned the two people, how could they explain that two people were poisoned? So they survived by relying on their own strength.

The Iron-Scaled Buddha remained unmoved.

A rhinoceros horn thumb ring was worn on the thick knuckle of his right index finger, which he quietly clenched.

The thumb gently rubbed the surface of the ring, making a "shh...shh..." sound.

The movement was very slight, but the dice-wielding girl in front would definitely be able to detect it.

"Um……"

Just then, a muffled groan came from the corner; it was the fifth leader of the Four Seas Gang.

Zhao Tai knew how terrifying the Nine Gates were, let alone Cheng Yuan, who was the head of the headquarters. He was on his guard from the moment he entered.

The moment they smelled the strange odor, they immediately held their breath, but the path through the purple bamboo forest was very long, and the servant was leading the way slowly.

Limited by his sixth-grade cultivation level, he couldn't keep using his internal energy to withstand the attack, and he secretly changed his breathing twice in between.

So he was the most affected by the whole event, being an "outsider," and it took him a while to come to his senses.

When she regained consciousness, she unconsciously murmured something, which startled Zhao Tai.

Suddenly jolted awake, he quickly covered his mouth.

Fortunately, both groups were focused on each other, and it seemed no one noticed his lapse in composure.

Xinniang stared intently at the person opposite her, "What is the God of Gamblers waiting for?"

The next moment, Qin Zhaoyue revealed a dazzling smile.

She was waiting for the Fifth Master to regain his senses, and she had no idea what the old lady was raving about.

"Enough talk, open the pot!"

This time, she was the first to lift the lid of the container, revealing six dice squeezed together, all showing six points.

How could that be!

The fingers of the Iron-Scaled Buddha, which were rubbing the face of the ring, suddenly stopped.

Those deep-set eyes held a chilling coldness, as if they could pierce to the bone.

Although he wasn't skilled in cheating, he was quite knowledgeable about the Nine Gates.

Given that the dice were almost out of his hands, it was fortunate that they didn't fall out; there was simply no possibility of controlling the numbers.

In other words, it definitely wasn't that "God of Gamblers" who made the move, yet Iron Scale Buddha still couldn't sense any fluctuations in true energy.

He himself possessed a cultivation level of the upper fourth rank, close to its peak, and was able to do this without revealing any trace of it in front of him...

Thud! Thud! Thud!
