CHAPTER 33: CHAPTER 32: THE STORM IS BREWING!

Cheating is the most common thing on the gambling table.

No gambler dares to say that they can spot all cheating techniques, but there are always those who feel they can win big at the table!

Even knowing the depths are as deep as a bottomless pit, people still keep filling it up, one after another.

Wu Liang didn’t know what weight this man in front of him held in the eyes of others, nor did he know how unbeatable his cheating techniques were.

All he knew was that, half an hour later.

This man would lose down to his underwear!

"You seem very confident, but you don’t look like a seasoned gambler, so where does your confidence come from? Is it cheating techniques?" The man kept shuffling the cards with his eyes fixed on Wu Liang.

However, Wu Liang didn’t respond to him.

He just nonchalantly said, "Deal the cards, why don’t you first tell everyone the color of your underwear, so it won’t be awkward when you lose it later."

The man sneeringly smiled.

Before he was granted special abilities by that master, he was already a renowned card master, and now with his special ability, the cards in his hands felt like extensions of his own body.

He knew exactly where each card lay, there was no way he could lose!

Shuffle—shuffle—shuffle—

The only sound on the gambling table was the card dealing, Wu Liang continued to nod carelessly, asking for more cards.

Seeing the other side’s arrogance, the man decided to make Wu Liang lose big in the first round!

"Player 21 beats Dealer, Player wins!"

"How is this possible!"

The moment the cards were revealed, the man slammed his hand on the table in disbelief.

He had given Wu Liang a deck that should have busted! How did it become 21?

"Keep dealing, don’t just stand there." Wu Liang’s tone remained calm, as if the millions in chips in front of him were trash, without any excitement.

He wouldn’t lose, nor get caught cheating.

Because he hadn’t used any cheating techniques, instead, he had the Mist Ghost cover the cards with mist, then slowly exchanged them for cards that would guarantee his win.

The mist could block all perception.

No dealer could detect a ghost switching the cards in their hands!

"Continue." "Deal." "Don’t stop!" "Buddy, why are you sweating?" "Don’t let your hands shake..."

With each word from Wu Liang, sounding like the devil’s whisper, the man grew more terrified.

By now, the chips in front of Wu Liang had reached a massive twenty million, stacked like a small mountain on the table, attracting most gamblers nearby.

Wu Liang could sense that the other side was near their mental breaking point.

After all, it’s very stressful for a dealer not to win a single hand.

But just then, the man suddenly froze, then respectfully nodded a few times, repeatedly saying "Received" and "No problem."

After finishing, his previously trembling hands suddenly steadied, and the traces of panic in his eyes vanished, replaced by calmness.

He then smiled and said to Wu Liang, "Mr. Wu, I indeed lost due to lack of skill, our boss wants to meet you, could you give us the honor?"

With that, the man extended his hand in a gesture of goodwill.

Seeing the other’s offer of peace, Wu Liang squinted, pondering.

It was strange enough that this guy somehow knew his surname, but now he didn’t have an earpiece or anything, clearly someone informed him to take him to see the boss.

How did he receive the message?

"Thank you, then. Lead the way." Wu Liang thought for a moment and decided to meet this boss.

Maybe this person holds the reason why Heaven and Earth has become so bizarre!

With this thought, Wu Liang also extended his hand to shake in friendship.

But, as soon as their hands met, the man’s smile turned into a brazenly triumphant grin, a surge of unspeakable eeriness exploded from him!

"Heh, kid, you finally fell for it, huh? Later on, I’ll make you kneel and lick my shoes!" He was so smug that he dared to say it upfront.

Why was Xu Qingling so reassured about him?

Because of these white gloves bestowed by the boss, which could influence people’s desire for money around them!

More than that, anyone who touches the gloves directly loses their mind completely for two hours, completely obeying his orders during that time!

With these white gloves, he could fully control the entire casino effortlessly!

He’ll have this kid willingly give the money back first, then...

"Oh? So this is your trump card?"

Rip—

While the man was reveling in his dream, he suddenly heard a ripping sound, shocked, he looked down.

The white gloves in his hand were being torn apart by Wu Liang!

Yet the other acted nonchalantly, patting his hands and saying calmly, "Lead the way, what are you dawdling for?"

"Monster... what kind of monster are you..."

Staring at the pieces of white gloves on the ground, the terror in the man’s eyes was uncontrollable as he looked at the young man in front of him, as if facing a terrifying beast.

He didn’t know that Wu Liang, upon encountering a Fierce Ghost, would even dare to directly grab its true form.

Was it simply because of a big heart?

Of course not! It all came from the ability provided by the Kitchen Knife Ghost within the Ghost Compendium—

[Breaking Blade: Grants a part of the body the characteristics of the Kitchen Knife Ghost, allowing it to directly harm the true form of a Fierce Ghost!]

No matter how mysterious these gloves were, they were not yet on the level of a Fierce Ghost, and even Fierce Ghosts couldn’t withstand a chop from Wu Liang, let alone these gloves?

By now, Wu Liang had already seen through some of the issues!

The managers of Heaven and Earth seemed to each have an item that could manipulate people’s minds!

This man had the white gloves, the dancer most likely had something to do with the red dancing shoes she wore, so what about Xu Qingling?

As a deputy manager, could she possibly have less influence than those handling operations?

"Hehe, don’t trouble him anymore, I’ll lead the way for you." Just as he thought of this, Xu Qingling’s voice appeared, breaking the stalemate.

As expected! This woman isn’t so simple either!

Meanwhile, inside, the spectators suddenly felt a headache, and as the blood veins in their eyes faded, an unprecedented clarity washed over them.

"Huh? Why was I gambling so big!?"

"Damn! I almost risked my entire fortune!"

"Shit, I was about to lose my coffin money!"

"..."

Seeing the customers’ changes after the destruction of the white gloves, the man suddenly felt things taking a turn for the worse!

A sense of impending stormy crisis surged in his heart!

If what they had done was exposed, the trial they’d face would not just be legal!

Manager Xu! You must thoroughly deal with this kid!

Either make sure he never leaves Heaven and Earth!

Or... make him join us!

Just like what you did to us before, let this kid willingly degenerate to stay and work at Heaven and Earth too!

After all, more than half of the employees at Heaven and Earth were enticed in by you, Manager Xu...
