In the calm demeanor, there was a hidden excitement, captured by Monk Quan Heng.

However...

Blood?

What use is my blood?

Monk Quan Heng was puzzled.

But in truth, Ding Hui wanted more than just blood.

Skin, bone, tendons, heart, liver, lungs...

She wanted everything, even wished to slice open Monk Quan Heng’s brain to research it thoroughly from inside out.

A high-level believer, such a rarity.

Not to mention that it’s a living specimen, to some extent able to be manipulated, a prime experimental material source!

It can be said that Ding Hui had a great interest in Monk Quan Heng!

Ding Hui’s eyes turned a bit dangerous. But when Monk Quan Heng hesitated, and as if Guo Yuxin sensed something, he opened his arms in a big gesture, shielding Monk Quan Heng behind him, Monk Quan Heng slightly nodded, agreeing to the blood offering.

...

Qin Er felt uncomfortable all over.

If it weren’t for the scarred man sitting beside her, she felt she would have already fled.

As the Boss of Sen Snake Gang paused in his boasting, looking at her with an expectant gaze, Qin Er stood up from her seat, forcing herself.

"Gang Leader Fa has grand ambitions and will surely achieve great things."

"Hahahaha! The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, Miss Qin Er, you flatter me. Currently, my gang’s plans are just small-scale expansions, but the future is promising! I believe you two should be able to discern from my plans how my gang’s future will be shaped, and please speak favorably of us when Lord Qiu visits next time."

"Sure... sure..."

Qin Er sat down awkwardly.

She had no privilege to speak to Lord Qiu.

When Lord Qiu leaves, he doesn’t even take her along!

What’s the situation now?

Does she still count as part of the Rebel Army?

It could be said that Qin Er was confused right now.

With the situation unclear on the Rebel Army’s side, her only reliance was the protection of the Sen Snake Gang.

"Mr. Diao!"

Just as Qin Er was thinking this, the previously eloquent and high-spirited man suddenly changed his style, becoming obsequious, excitedly approaching the man at the door.

It’s him...

Qin Er quickly lowered her head, not daring to look much.

This man is someone who stands on equal footing with Lord Qiu indeed!

"Why was I called here?"

Fang Yu casually picked up a teacup from the seat, drank it in one gulp, and then asked.

"Mr. Diao, here’s the thing."

While arranging Fang Yu to sit, Fa Hongwen quickly said.

"Last night, after we dealt with Fa Xiao and the others, and I interrogated and investigated those prisoners, I discovered that Fa Xiao actually had a hidden asset!"

Fang Yu tilted his head.

"An asset?"

"Yes! Do you know the Honey Casino?"

Fang Yu shook his head.

Never heard of it.

"It can be said to be one of the largest underground casinos in the nearby markets!"

Fa Hongwen’s eyes were glowing.

His ambition also swelled with it.

"Fa Xiao is the power behind the Honey Casino! No wonder all these years, after leaving the Forest Snake Gang, he has been operating the Honey Casino. It’s no wonder he always needed to use the Forest Snake Gang’s resources to support it, the hole a casino creates is not small..."

Realizing he had veered off topic, Fa Xiao immediately added: "In any case, with Fa Xiao gone, the Honey Casino now belongs to us! Mr. Diao, are you interested in taking over Honey Casino?"

Running a casino?

Honestly speaking, Fang Yu wasn’t interested.

Because he wasn’t planning to put down roots in Thunder City, everything was just for finding someone there.

Moreover, fighting is what he was good at, managing a business and such, that’s not his forte.

This isn’t just about managing some buttons in a game, it’s about really arranging manpower, managing production lines, material procurement, logistics, and a bunch of other tasks.

As a passive participant, Fang Yu had no objections, but as for taking over, forget it.

Shaking his head slightly, just as he was about to refuse, Fa Hongwen seemed to see through Fang Yu’s thoughts and quickly said.

"Mr. Diao, don’t rush to refuse, if you don’t like casinos, I can take over the management for you, and the casino’s profits, I’ll give you thirty percent every year!"

What does that mean?

Free shares?

A pie falling from the sky?

Fang Yu looked at Fa Hongwen with a scrutinizing gaze.

This look made Fa Hongwen feel guilty.

"Is it that you think thirty percent is too little, Mr. Diao? How about forty percent... no! Fifty percent! You helped me so much last night, you must accept this token of appreciation, otherwise I’ll feel guilty in my heart."

Turns out, he wanted to thank me for my help last night.

Indeed, without the help from me and Qiu Xiaoping and the others, Fa Xiao’s team wouldn’t have been able to easily push through the Forest Snake Gang.

Thinking this way, Fang Yu immediately accepted the share without guilt.

But not too much, with fifty percent share, he feared Fa Hongwen might end up working for free for someone else and neglect properly managing the casino.

"Thirty percent is enough."

Fa Hongwen’s eyes lit up instantly.

"Whatever Mr. Diao said, goes!"

The casino, is not important.

What matters is the relationship with Mr. Diao.

If the casino has issues in the future, it would be a slap in the face to Mr. Diao, damaging his interests!

Moreover, the casino belongs to the Forest Snake Gang.

Anyone who dares to target the Forest Snake Gang must first assess their own strength.

Fa Hongwen was plotting carefully, while Fang Yu pretended not to notice, leaving Qin Er somewhat conflicted.

After hesitating for quite a while, she timidly stood up.

"Mr., Mr. Diao."

She lowered her head, not daring to look at Fang Yu.

"What’s the matter?"

Fang Yu looked at Liu Qiner; after all she was with the Rebel Army and Qiu Xiaoping’s people, so Fang Yu could give her some face.

"If Mr. Diao becomes a beneficiary of the casino, then if anything happens to the casino or Forest Snake Gang in the future, Mr. Diao cannot turn a blind eye... otherwise, it could damage Mr. Diao’s reputation."

Swish—

The gaze of Fa Hongwen swept over immediately.

The scorching gaze made Qin Er lower her head even further, quietly returning to her seat, not daring to make a sound.

In the silent confrontation, the boorish scar-faced man beside them did not catch on at all, instead yawning out of boredom.

But unexpectedly, Fang Yu just smiled faintly.

"No matter, thirty percent profit, it’s what I should bear."

What use is reputation!

Even if the casino were smashed, Fang Yu wouldn’t give it another glance.

Take the profits when there are profits; forget it when there aren’t. Thinking to bind me through a casino, Fa Hongwen is simply dreaming.

"Mr. Diao!"

Fa Hongwen looked at Fang Yu, excited.

Unaware, Fang Yu’s thoughts were far from his expectations.

After all, Fang Yu’s roots were not in Thunder City, so binding or not didn’t matter.

"Report!!! Gang Leader, Lord Qiu is visiting!"

Just then, a servant hurriedly reported from outside the door.

Lord Qiu? Qiu Xiaoping??

Swish—

Fang Yu and Qin Er almost simultaneously stood up from their seats.

"Is Lord Qiu here?! Please, please invite him in!"

Fa Hongwen was also excited, but his reaction was far less intense than Fang Yu and Qin Er’s.

Fang Yu thought for a moment and sat back down.

Not knowing whether Qiu Xiaoping came with surprises, or just to take the two from the Rebel Army away.

Soon after, Qiu Xiaoping entered the hall, led by the gang members.

Compared to last night, Qiu Xiaoping had changed outfits, appearing more vibrant.

But Fang Yu felt nothing.

Fang Yu had seen many pretty women, and even killed quite a few. But there are very few women who could stir his feelings.

"Lord Qiu!"

"Lord Qiu."

Qin Er and the scar-faced man both stood up.

But Qiu Xiaoping just glanced at the two of them, then immediately focused on Fang Yu, showing a smile.

"Young Master Diao, I’m back. And Fa Gang Leader, thank you for taking care of my subordinates."

"It’s the least I could do! The least I could do!"

Fa Hongwen greeted earnestly, trying to please.

Qin Er disliked this fawning attitude.

But she had to admit, pleasing Lord Qiu and Young Master Diao was much more useful than pleasing two marginalized people like them.

Just thinking about this, Qin Er couldn’t help but feel a bit sad.

Initially she thought joining the Rebel Army would make things better, yet never expected that everywhere would be the same scheming and struggling, leaving her mentally exhausted.
