Seeing that the aide was still standing rooted to the ground, the Bookmaker kicked him and shouted, “Get lost!”

His aide turned and fled the place.

When he reached the door and was about to disappear, the Bookmaker suddenly said, “Stop right there.”

“How much is he collecting?”

“Five million taels,” the aide said.

Ka-Crash!

The teacup that the Bookmaker had just picked up dropped on the floor and shattered.

“What did you say? I didn’t catch that.
Say again.”

“He bet 500,000 taels on the Dragon Lake Institute winning.”

“How many of them? And who’s leading them?” The Bookmaker pressed him for details.

“It’s just him alone.
The manager has confirmed that his martial arts evolution is at the Connate Realm.”

The three Bookmakers looked at each other and sneered.
Their eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Did he think that the Jade Manor was a cash-withdrawal machine?

Any Tom, Dick, or Harry was simply going to come here and have a go?

A deputy Bookmaker said, “It’s not appropriate to take action here.
Give him the money first, then get someone to keep an eye on him.
Thereafter find a deserted place to finish him off.”

The other deputy nodded in agreement.
“That’s what I thought too.”

The Bookmaker narrowed his eyes and drummed his fingers on the table.
After going over it in his mind, he thought this idea might work.

He immediately instructed, “Get someone to give him the money and then tell Blood Tiger to do a clean job.”

His aide turned and left.

Inside a room,

the manager returned and placed 5,500,000 taels of silver banknotes in front of Xiao Ran.
“The capital plus the winnings are all here.”

Holding the banknotes in his hand, Xiao Ran counted them.

The largest value banknote was a hundred thousand taels each.
There were a total of 55 pieces.

“Perfect.”

“Yes,” the manager replied impassively.

He watched him leave and then sneered.
“It’s not so easy to take money from our Jade Manor.”

After leaving the Jade Manor,

Xiao Ran needed to pee urgently.
He had drunk too much alcohol in the Drunken Immortals Court just now.

He popped into a side alley and pulled up his pants…

At this moment,

a tall stocky figure dashed out of the Jade Manor.
He was the Blood Tiger.
He looked at the empty street and used his senses to search, but did not sense Xiao Ran’s remaining aura.

His brows knitted together.
“Where is he?”

After a moment’s hesitation, he wondered whether he should go left or right?

“I’ll check the left side first.
If that doesn’t work, I can come back.”

He activated his technique at its maximum strength and rushed into the night.

After the Blood Tiger left, Xiao Ran walked out of the alley feeling carefree and relaxed.
He then headed home.

He was still puzzled.
Knowing what kind of character these people were, after losing so much money, why didn’t they take any action when he was all alone? Had they turned over a new leaf?

He walked all the way home safe and sound.

“Looks like I’m thinking too much,” Xiao Ran remarked to himself.

At the Predestiny Bridge,

the Blood Tiger came to a stop.
After running around for so long, he still hadn’t found his quarry.
Thinking that this did not bode well, he thought he might be going in the wrong direction.

He was just about to turn around,

when a figure came around the corner.

A terrifying evil aura emanated from this character.
It was wrapped around him thickly without dispersing.
Wherever he went, the surrounding temperature dropped drastically.

The mystery guy came to a stop when he saw Blood Tiger blocking his way.

“Were you expecting me?” Yin Jijie asked.

“You’re quite fast! You got here so quickly,” Blood Tiger gave a sinister sneer.

Yin Jijie felt that something was wrong.
He had barely stepped into the capital city, yet his presence had already been discovered by others so fast?

This force was indeed terrifying.
No wonder the Snow Consort had died at their hands.

His eyes turned icy cold, and a terrifying murderous intent erupted.
“Besides you, who else is there?”

“The dead don’t need to know so much.” Blood Tiger instantly charged at him.

The martial arts evolution of a Level 1 Grand Master erupted explosively, whipping up a huge whirlwind of force.
Blood-red light flashed around his body as he roared, “Blood Demon Heaven Shattering Punch!”

As his bloodthirsty aura condensed, it transformed into a hundred-foot-long fist imprint that blasted over with overpowering might.

“That’s it?” Yin Jijie asked disdainfully.

He waved his right hand and a beam of green light shot down.

The ferocious fist imprint was shattered straightaway.
Then pointing into the air with one finger, Yin Jijie broke through his defense and attacked him until he was severely injured.
He then slammed him to the ground.

He walked up to the fallen demon.

“Are you going to tell me now?”

“You… you’re not at the level of the Connate Realm?” Blood Tiger realized belatedly with a shock.

“I’m the one asking the questions, not you,” Yin Jijie gave a scornful snort.

He stomped down and crushed the injured demon’s left leg.
The excruciating pain nearly made him faint.

“It won’t end well for you to make us your enemy.”

“I’m going to ask you one last time.
Are you going to tell me or not?”

“Not on your life!” Blood Tiger was still stubborn.

“I’m giving you a chance but you don’t want it.” Yin Jijie smiled malevolently.

A huge silver wolf illusion shot out from above his head and transformed into hundreds of feet tall.
In one bite, it swallowed him whole.

After digesting his prey,

Yin Jijie licked his lips ominously.
“It doesn’t taste that good.”

With a gust of the night wind, he vanished without a trace.

In the bedroom,

Xiao Ran took down the painting of the Eldest Princess.
He retrieved a bottle of dragon blood, and poured it over the painting.

Boundless spiritual power circulated, and a huge aura enveloped the entire room.
A powerful suction force came from the painting and absorbed all the dragon blood.

Golden light appeared, and the Eldest Princess’s strength improved again, reaching Level 5 of the Master Realm.

Even the image was more vivid and lifelike.

“How incredible.” Xiao Ran was awestruck.

He’d only wanted to test it out, but it had worked beyond his expectations.

He hung the painting back on the wall, to ward off evil in the house.

After consuming the remaining eleven bottles of dragon blood, the dragon blood entered his stomach and toughened his body.
After strengthening, his current physical body was comparable to a Level 5 Grand Master.

He looked at the dragon liver in his palm.
It was a rich golden color and emitted such a rich aroma before it was even roasted.

“Crimson Cetan,” Xiao Ran summoned out loud.

The Crimson Cetan had been playing dead these days.

If he could not defeat him, he could not escape.
The moment he appeared, he would be squeezed dry.
He might as well minimize his presence as much as possible.

Resentfully, it flew from his wrist and stared at the dragon liver.
His hawkish eyes lit up and he flapped his wings excitedly.
“Is that for me?”

“What do you think?” Xiao Ran asked in reply.

“I have a weak stomach.
I’m afraid of indigestion if I eat something so good.”

He manipulated his Crimson Cetan Holy Fire and obediently worked hard to roast the dragon liver.

Inwardly, he was drooling uncontrollably.
It smelled so good.
He wanted so badly to have a bite.

A few minutes later,

the dragon liver was roasted, emitting a mouth-watering aroma that spread everywhere.
The Crimson Cetan’s eyes were fixed on the dragon liver, unable to look away.

“Shall we eat together?” Xiao Ran asked invitingly.

“No! I’m afraid of indigestion.” Crimson Cetan shrank back.

Recalling the last time he had a meal, he had suffered a huge loss of his vital energy which had only recovered recently.

He nimbly went back into hiding on Xiao Ran’s wrist.
Out of sight, out of mind.

“It’s quite delicious,” Xiao Ran taunted him.

Thirteen pounds of dragon liver was really not sufficient.

He felt even better after drinking the spirit water that he had accumulated over the past few days.

In the part of his body where his liver was located, the vital energy felt very strong and it was filled with a rich dense energetic vigor.
The dragon liver was starting to have an effect on his body.

He was just about to turn off the lights and rest when

an uninvited guest appeared in the courtyard.

He wore a devil’s mask and a blood-red robe.
Only his eyes were visible.

“Yama’s men?” Xiao Ran thought with a puzzled frown.

The door opened silently and a shadowy figure flew in.
Seeing Xiao Ran standing in the hall, the face hidden under the mask frowned slightly.
“Are you waiting for me?”

“Yes.” Xiao Ran nodded affirmatively.

“You knew I was coming over?”

“I didn’t! I sensed your aura just now,” Xiao Ran said casually.

“No!” The guy from Yama had a bad feeling about this.
