Chapter 1587 - 368, teach him a lesson (first update)_2
With the previous incident where he contended with Su Tianrui for a position, everyone’s curiosity about this gentleman’s identity grew even stronger.
But now, they didn’t have the luxury to ponder over his identity, for all their attention was focused on the sign he was holding in his hand.
Is he supporting Dong Tian? Or is he supporting Drunken Immortal Tower?
If he supports Drunken Immortal Tower, the competition would end in a tie, with both parties merely putting on a show on stage.
However, if he supports Dong Tian, then this one sign not only affects the reputation of both houses, but also decides the fate of many gambling houses in the Capital city.
The odds have already risen from one-to-a-hundred to one-to-two-hundred, and numerous small gambling houses could go bankrupt paying out the Silver!
Moreover, somehow a rumor started among the gambling houses that someone paid a high price to bet on Dong Tian’s victory.
If Dong Tian really wins today’s competition, the Silver owed to this person could crush no less than ten small gambling houses in the Capital city!
"Hey, make your choice! Hurry up, don’t you see everyone is watching you?"
Seeing all eyes were on him and He Lienuo by his side, Su Tianrui felt somewhat uneasy. He was worried about the competition results and was truly concerned; what if He Lienuo, because of the invitation incident, deliberately opposed them, leading to a major loss over a minor issue?
At this moment, Xia Zheng also felt some regret. Had he known today’s situation would evolve like this, he wouldn’t have antagonized this high-status individual over a mere three thousand taels of Silver!
Not just Xia Zheng, even Lin Yuan felt somewhat anxious; based on the various rumors about He Lienuo heard previously, the Crown Prince of Xiliang was a cunning little fox.
