Chapter 3735: Cashing in on the Bet

Cold Sword Immortal Sect?

Ye Bufan's mouth twitched.

Li Miaozhen was clearly in cahoots with Baili Xingkong, and she definitely wouldn't be willing to let him take Leng Qingqiu away.

It would be good enough if the two of them didn't gang up on him; going to the Cold Sword Immortal Sect at this moment was no different from walking into a trap.

Ye Bufan held Leng Qingqiu's hand and smiled slightly, "No need, you don't have to worry, I can protect myself."

"Really? It's so hard to find you, I don't want to be separated again.

How about I go with you?" Leng Qingqiu's eyes were filled with unconcealed worry.

In the Major Thousand Worlds, the only person she cared about so much was the man in front of her.

"Really no need," Ye Bufan said meaningfully, "You just need to keep your Grand Elder company."

"I understand, please be careful." Leng Qingqiu was also a smart woman and immediately understood the meaning of his words.

At this moment, what she needed to do was prevent the Cold Sword Immortal Sect from getting involved.

After speaking, she turned and left, and Ye Bufan also led everyone back to the inn.

After leaving, Ximen Feng immediately rushed over, "Ye Yixian, you must be very careful.

I estimate that Baili Xingkong, that Old thing, might try to harm you."

"I know." Ye Bufan nodded, but there was nothing he could do about such matters; some troubles couldn't be avoided just by hiding.

"Then, how about I stay at your inn tonight? I can help a little if something happens." Ximen Feng was still a very grateful person, and at the critical moment, she stood without hesitation on Ye Bufan's side.

"Grand Elder, I appreciate your kindness, but there's really no need.

I can handle it myself." Ye Bufan understood Ximen Feng's good intentions, but he didn't want the other party to get too involved.

Firstly, it would bring unnecessary trouble to the Nine Heavens Immortal Palace, which he didn't want.

Secondly, he had some methods that he couldn't easily display in front of others.

"Alright then, I'll go back tonight.

For now, I'll take you all back!" Seeing Ximen Feng's persistence, Ye Bufan didn't refuse, and everyone returned to the inn together.

As soon as they entered, Xuanyuan Zhantian shouted, "I, this Old Man, am hungry, kid, quickly bring out good wine and food."

Ye Bufan glanced at him, "Old Man, you can't always eat and drink for free here, can you?

What about the Cultivation Technique you owe me?

Isn't it time to give it to me?"

Xuanyuan Zhantian rolled his small eyes, "What's the hurry, kid?

Will I, this Old Man, renege on a debt?"

"You won't renege, but you should give it to me!" Ye Bufan looked at him and suddenly had an idea, "Old Man, you don't actually have the second half, do you?"

"Uh…" Xuanyuan Zhantian's divine sense paused, and he said awkwardly, "How could I not have it? It's just that I, this Old Man, haven't gotten my hands on it yet."

"Haven't gotten your hands on it yet?

So that means you don't have it?" Ye Bufan then realized that he had been tricked by this rotten Old Man; the other party only had half of the One Qi Transforming into Three Pure Ones.

Xuanyuan Zhantian's small eyes blinked, and he quickly resolved the awkwardness.

"Don't worry, since I, this Old Man, have already promised you, I will get the second half and give it to you sooner or later."

Ye Bufan said irritably, "Sooner or later is when?"

"Sooner or later is sooner or later, what's the rush?

Do you think that place is easy to go to?

One must have ample preparation, I, this Old Man, don't want to be Sealed again…" Saying this, Xuanyuan Zhantian suddenly realized he had said too much and immediately fell silent.

Ye Bufan then realized that the One Qi Transforming into Three Pure Ones was obtained by this Old Man from that place last time.

This made him full of curiosity about that unknown Domain.

What kind of place possessed such strange energy and such an Advanced Cultivation Technique?

It's just that this Old Man wasn't talking now, and he had no choice but to wait for an opportunity.

Xuanyuan Zhantian sat there, slapping the table, looking displeased.

"Kid, what are you still doing?

Quickly bring out the delicious food, I, this Old Man, will definitely repay the favor I owe you."

Jiang Fangzhou couldn't stand it anymore, "I say, Old Man, can you not be so shameless?

Are you addicted to freeloading?

Why should my big brother provide you with food and drink?

Do you believe I'll kick you out?"

"You want to kick me out?

Are you going to watch an Old Man like me go out and freeze or starve to death?

You're so heartless, how am I supposed to live…" As the Old Man spoke, he actually started weeping, snot and tears flowing, looking incredibly pitiful.

Caught off guard, Jiang Fangzhou looked bewildered; the Old Man's change of face was too quick.

"Alright, stop making trouble, I won't kick you out." Ye Bufan said, taking out a pile of food and placing it in front of him.

Xuanyuan Zhantian immediately stopped crying, grabbed a bottle of beer, and drank it all in one gulp.

Finally, he wiped his mouth with his dirty sleeve, "Kid, that braised pork hock you had last time was good, give me two more!

I have to say, the things here are really delicious, so much so that I, this Old Man, don't want to leave!"

Ye Bufan no longer paid attention to the Old Man and said to Xiao Qing, "Let's go, we're going to get money!"

Ximen Feng quickly said, "Ye Yixian, are you going to the Holy Dragon Gambling House?"

Ye Bufan nodded, "Yes, I've won a total of 2.4 billion High-Grade Spirit Stones these past few days, and today it's time to settle up with them."

"What, 2.4 billion?" Although Ximen Feng was well-traveled and knowledgeable, she was still startled by the number.

That was a full 2.4 billion.

"Yes, that's how much it is." Ye Bufan was also very satisfied with this number.

With so many High-Grade Spirit Stones, it would be enough even to purchase Top-Grade Spirit Stones.

Ximen Feng swallowed her saliva, calming her excited emotions, "So much money, do you think Baili Xingkong, that Old thing, will give it to you?"

"He definitely will," Ye Bufan said, "Those who run gambling houses value their reputation the most, and credibility is their lifeline.

If he defaults this time, his gambling house will probably have no customers in the future.

If I were him, the best way would be to first cash out the money, take the opportunity to make a profit, and then secretly send out experts to kill the person and snatch the money back.

So I guess he won't act on the road, but instead secretly send people to launch a night attack tonight.

After all, I took so much money, even if some people robbed it, it's only human nature and can't be blamed on the gambling house.

At that time, he can both take the money back and kill me to get revenge, which is a perfect win-win solution."

Although she felt what he said made sense, Ximen Feng was still a little uneasy, "Let me go with you!"

"Alright!" Knowing there wouldn't be any surprises, Ye Bufan didn't refuse and left with Xiao Qing and Ximen Feng.

Arriving at the entrance of the gambling house, the waiter's expression became incredibly strange after seeing him.

Winning a full 2.4 billion High-Grade Spirit Stones here, he had never seen or even heard of such a thing.

"Young Master, you've arrived." After the shock, he greeted him with a smiling face, and casually handed him a yellow paper with tomorrow's gambling odds written on it.

Ye Bufan took it and looked at it, "Now that the Holy Dragon Gambling House has set these odds, it has completely returned to rationality, with no significant disparity.

Whether it's him against Leng Qingqiu or Wangchen against Hua Ruyu, the odds offered are 1:1.8.

After all, the strength of both sides is not much different, and it's impossible to tell who will win.

In such a situation, the best approach for the gambling house is to steadily collect its commission."

The waiter asked, "Young Master, which match are you betting on, or are you still betting on this person named Ye?"

In his opinion, this person in front of him would definitely bet as usual, but Ye Bufan shook his head.

"I'm not playing today; cash out all this money for me."

"Ah?" The waiter was immediately stunned, completely dumbfounded.
