The next day, Wang Xiaoqiang summoned Ye Qingcheng, Lin Xianshu, and Little Bai to come over and had them search for Li Jianyi separately.

Little Bai arrived first, bringing along a girl who was her younger sister, named Yilian. According to Little Bai, there was a great turmoil in the Cultivation Realm. The Heaven and Earth Laws were activated, and someone from the Immortal Realm used the excuse of eradicting the Barbaric Demons to enter Earth through the barrier. Although it was meant to exterminate the Barbaric Demons, naturally, fox demons like Little Bai were affected. The Divine Sense of the powerful beings from the Immortal Realm was incredibly strong, and as they passed through, demon species were annihilated. Barely one in ten survived.

Upon hearing the news, Little Bai took Yilian out to avoid disaster.

Soon, Ye Qingcheng and Lin Xianshu also arrived. Both women had also heard about the major upheaval in the Cultivation Realm. It was said that this time there were not a few people who came from the Immortal Realm. They were now staying with the three major Immortal Cultivation Sects. These people from the Immortal Realm were once highly talented disciples on Earth and had now returned to their old home. Thus, with grievances to be avenged and enmities to be settled.

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaoqiang immediately understood; no wonder Li Jianyi was able to enter Earth through the barrier.

Wang Xiaoqiang ordered the four women, "Now, your task is to find out the background of Pu Shi and Pu Hong, these two monks..."

The four women took the command and left. Although it was not easy to investigate two dead people, it was all too simple for these four women. Soon, Lin Xianshu brought back news that Pu Shi and Pu Hong had been staying in a small temple in the suburbs of River City, possessing covert Kung Fu skills. They were people close to Yao Qinghu and often did some dirty work for him.

Upon hearing Yao Qinghu, Wang Xiaoqiang immediately thought of Yao Zhihao, whose manhood had been removed by him, and Yao Baiyu, whose capabilities he had destroyed. Could it be that Yao Qinghu knew it was his doing and came for revenge, or had Li Jianyi found him and borrowed men from him?

No matter the reason, Wang Xiaoqiang would not let Yao Qinghu go. He decided to destroy Yao Qinghu's power base. Yao Qinghu's forces were concentrated in the Jindoli Association of River City, and Yao Qinghu's economic resources all came from Jindoli's casino. So, as long as he destroyed Jindoli's casino, his goal would be achieved.

When night fell, Wang Xiaoqiang came to Jindoli alone. He had heard from Li Chunmei that although Jindoli was not the biggest entertainment industry under Yao Qinghu, Jindoli's casino was his biggest money-making machine.

Tonight, Wang Xiaoqiang was going to destroy Jindoli's casino.

The manager of the Jindoli Association's casino was named Jin Yumin, in his forties. He was one of Yao Qinghu's brothers from the early days and had followed Yao Qinghu for over a decade with absolute loyalty. Yao Qinghu was not blind; he appreciated Jin Yumin's foolish loyalty and kept it in mind. Gossip had it that once, two underworld figures known as Heavenly Wolf and Xia Mingchan had walked away with more than eighty million from Jindoli, but Yao Qinghu still did not punish Jin Yumin. He simply reminded him to be more cautious in the future and instructed that if anyone else came to start trouble, they should report to him immediately.

After leaving the private room, Wang Xiaoqiang went straight to the third floor. The third floor had only about ten special private rooms, ranging from 3-1 to 3-10.

However, at this time, half of the private rooms were empty, suggesting that there weren't many who gambled on tens of millions. Wang Xiaoqiang directly entered the 3-3 special private room.

The staff member who entered afterward placed the chips on the gambling table. Jiangg Feng picked up a 30,000-chip as a tip and tossed it to the staff member, who initially was stunned, then bowed deeply to Wang Xiaoqiang, thanking him gratefully before asking somewhat awkwardly, "Sir, don't you have any gambling partners arranged?"

Wang Xiaoqiang walked to the window of the private room, looking out at the night sky and neon lights, and said to the staff member, "Tell your manager to send over the gambling masters of your casino to accompany me..."

The staff member's face changed immediately... It seemed this person was here to challenge the casino? "Okay, sir." She suppressed the panic in her heart, responded very politely, and then turned to leave.

Just as he had backed up to the doorway, he heard the other party add another instruction, "Have them bring more money, otherwise it won't be enough to cover my winnings!"

Upon hearing this arrogantly confident statement, the staff member became even more certain that this generous young man was indeed here to stir up trouble. Someone had already taken away over eighty million last time; she hadn't expected another challenger so soon. It seemed Manager Jin was about to explode with rage again. At this thought, she felt a wave of distress wash over her. However, as a staff member with customer requests to fulfill, she had to comply, and besides, there was no escaping such matters.

With no other choice, the staff member braced herself and went to the manager's office. As expected, upon hearing the report from the staff member, Jin Yumin's face darkened. After listening to her description, he was sure that those who had come to cause trouble were not Jiang Tianlang's gang, but a young man. Jin Yumin immediately called Yao Qinghu to report, informing him that the newcomers were not from Jiang Tianlang's gang. However, Yao Qinghu boasted, "Even if it were Jiang Tianlang's gang, what of it? Even if the 'Gambling King' Xia Mingchan himself came, what then?"

Jin Yumin was perplexed and asked cautiously, "Elder Yao, what do you mean by that?" Yao Qinghu replied, "You find two gambling experts to hold down the fort with that man, I'll send someone over right away... No, today I will go personally... I want to see for myself who has the audacity to challenge my establishment!"

Yao Qinghu spoke with confidence because he had an ace up his sleeve—his daughter, Miyazaki Yuki.

Following Yao Qinghu's arrangements, Jin Yumin had Jindoli's pillar, known as the Gambling Marshall Fu Miaoshou, and the rising star of River City's gambling world, Wu Lilai, each take ten million to go up against Wang Xiaoqiang.

Within half an hour, the gambling experts Fu Miaoshou and Wu Lilai ran out of the special VIP room, dejected, having lost twenty million to Wang Xiaoqiang.

Watching from the surveillance room, Jin Yumin saw that Fu Miaoshou and Wu Lilai were no match for their opponent and immediately sent the most beautiful croupier in the establishment to attend to Wang Xiaoqiang, hoping to stabilize his mood for the time being. Truth be told, at this point, he was at his wit's end. Just as he was completely at a loss, Yao Qinghu arrived in the surveillance room with several people.

Yao Qinghu brought three people with him: Yao Baixue, Little Xu Xiaowa, and Master of the Law, who was in plain clothes.

This Master of the Law was actually a brother in the monastic order to Pu Shi and Pu Hong. On the surface, he was a monk, but in reality, he engaged in all sorts of nefarious deeds unfit for the light.

"Elder Yao, you've arrived..." Jin Yumin greeted him with a wipe of his sweat.

"I have to see for myself who has the guts to challenge my turf," Yao Qinghu said, ignoring Jin Yumin's words and taking the seat directly in front of the central surveillance screen.

The room where Wang Xiaoqiang was situated had already been set on the main surveillance screen. At that time, Yao Qinghu clearly saw the gambler who had come to pick a fight.

The one who sat at the gambling table with a carefree demeanor was an extremely young and familiar face.

As soon as he made out the features of that person, Yao Qinghu reacted as if he had seen a ghost, exclaiming in shock, "It's... it's him..."

Little Xu Xiaowa, focusing on the main surveillance screen, was also stunned when he saw the figure of Wang Xiaoqiang. Because of Li Chunmei's situation, they had already discreetly investigated Wang Xiaoqiang, so they recognized him and were well aware of his background. (To be continued.
