Ren Jie's heart suddenly sank to the bottom. Is the echoing scepter in the shape of an arm a spiritual treasure?
The so-called spiritual treasures are not magic weapons in the world of immortality, but treasures with special abilities that are born under various chances and coincidences.
For example, the Chuxue folding fan can be regarded as a spiritual treasure.
Obviously, this echoing scepter is also an arm that was ripped off from someone's body.
Just one arm can release a barrier with such a huge range. One can imagine how strong the owner of this arm is.
But this is not the main problem today.
The most important thing is that Ren Jie was locked in a barrier with about thirty playing cards.
And each of these people wanted to eat Ren Jie alive.
I saw Ren Jie looking at the thick barrier with an ugly expression, and then he smiled bitterly:
"I said... as for such a big battle? Is it too much of a fuss?"
"Just to deal with me, a rookie in the Ridge Realm?"
Xiao Wang sneered: "To deal with you? Haha~ I want you to die at any time. It's just to prevent people from the Demon Suppression Division and the Daxia Defense Force from causing trouble."
"After all, this is Daxia's territory, so it's better to be on the safe side. Don't think that I don't know what your plans are..."
"Since you have chosen to play your cards, you must win, right?"
Ren Jie's face was ashen, as if he had seen through the plan.
Xiao Wang stretched his waist fiercely:
"Now...give me the candle demon."
But Ren Jie shook his head firmly:
"I won't hand over the candle demon until I see someone. We made an agreement before coming here. I'll give you the things, and I'll let one of you go. I'll let the other one go after you evacuate safely."
"You should know that the candle demon has the ability to become virtual. If he does not appear in physical form, you cannot touch him."
"Don't think Xirang can lure it out. It doesn't really need that thing right now."
At this moment, the candle demon also appeared above Ren Jie's head, looking at everyone curiously. His body was in a state of virtualization, and the candle flame was swaying...
As soon as these words came out, all the thirty people present laughed out loud.
Diamond K smiled ferociously:
"Boy...you still don't see the situation clearly?"
The King of Hearts said calmly: "Now, you, candle demon, are all locked up in the echo barrier, and everything we want is already in our hands!"
"Do you think we still need to abide by the agreement? Even if the candle demon becomes virtual, it cannot break out of the echo barrier. We only need to reduce the range of the barrier..."
"So...give us a reason to spare your family, or a reason not to kill you?"
Ren Jie's face became extremely ugly, and he gritted his steel teeth:
"Liars! You shameless bastards!"
Fang Pian K sneered, rushed up and punched Ren Jie in the stomach.
"boom!"
Ren Jie was beaten so hard that he bent over and knelt on the ground, vomiting blood and coughing violently.
Once the echo barrier was released, Xiao Wang was no longer in a hurry. Instead, he came to the card table, grabbed a deck of playing cards and shuffled the cards skillfully.
"Come here and play a few games?"
Ren Jie, who was lying on the ground, was suddenly put on the card table.
Xiao Wang smiled and said: "The rules are very simple. The only bargaining chip in your hand now is to restore the body of the candle demon, and the chip in my hand is the lives of the three of you."
"During the gambling process, you can choose to hand over your chips at any time and end the game."
"We played three games in total. In the end, whether you can win your life back depends on your luck. How about it? Are you having fun?"
Ren Jie wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face filled with resentment:
"Do I have a choice?"
Xiao Wang smiled: "Very good... let's get started?"
"This is a bet on Tao Yaoyao's life. It's a competition!"
The cards were already dealt as he spoke.
Looking at the cards that were dealt to him one by one, Ren Jie's heart was beating fast, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his hands were shaking from nervousness.
The other Poker members also looked at this scene with great interest. The fate game was our favorite.
As soon as the cards were dealt, Ren Jie couldn't wait to grab the cards in his hand and twist them to take a look.
Then his whole expression froze, and his eyes were full of despair.
Xiao Wang, on the other hand, looked at Ren Jie with interest, as if enjoying his despair.
"Do you want to hand over your chips now?"
At this moment, Ren Jie was already a little hysterical.
"That's not fair. It's your card. You're the one who gave me a thousand dollars!"
Xiao Wang smiled and spread out his cards. It was the Royal Flush with the largest card.
"Fair? Haha~ is it fair? This world is inherently unfair. Some people have some things when they are born, while some people struggle all their lives to get them..."
"Tell me...what is fairness?"
"It's like playing cards. You start with a bad hand. I'm the dealer and I'm the one who dealt the cards. That's the rule. How do you win?"
"And the price of losing is often something you can't bear..."
Ren Jie gritted his teeth: "What exactly do you want to say?"
Xiao Wang smiled and looked at the dark night sky:
"Do you know? This world is rotten. It's rotten to the very foundation. It's hopelessly rotten. People like us have no way out even if we work hard all our lives. The rules are like this and the current situation is like this..."
"Then... break the rules, change the rules. This world needs a big reshuffle. Everything in the past should have ended long ago. In the new world, we must be the ones who make the rules!"
"No longer sit on this small card table, but become the person who plays the game!"
"Boy...Fuck with me. The candle demon needs you to extend his life. The magician will like you. Swallow this. I will let you live. I will also keep your family safe. It's just that you can't see them for a while." They’re gone…”
While talking, he threw a crystal bottle on the table. There was a dark insect in the bottle, making a crunching sound.
A flash of hesitation flashed in Ren Jie's eyes.
Xiao Wang smiled and said: "What? Not willing? So... do you want to continue?"
"I'll give you ten seconds to choose, swallow this and work with me, or play the cards. Let's continue playing. The next one will bet An Ning's life."
"Because of you, I lost a few generals, but I don't care. Good things like this will be hard to find in the future..."
"Ten, nine, eight...
Diamond K slapped Ren Jie on the back of the head:
"Don't be shameless by riding a horse!"
Ren Jie turned around and glared at Diamond K fiercely, looked up at Xiao Wang, with a smile on his face, and threw his cards directly on the card table.
Small!
Poor little one, he was completely blown away by Xiao Wang's Royal Flush.
Xiao Wang frowned and looked at Ren Jie.
Ren Jie smiled brightly:
"You thought you were sure to win, right? Unfortunately...the real card table is not here."
"Life cannot be defined by just a deck of playing cards. So what if you are born with nothing? A life with infinite possibilities is wonderful, because every day in the future is worth looking forward to."
"This world is indeed not a world where you will definitely get something as long as you work hard, but I promise that all your efforts will not be in vain. They will turn into light and illuminate your way forward..."
"So it's not the turn of losers like you to talk to me here. I won't gamble with my family's lives, because as long as I gamble, there is a possibility of losing."
"Fortunately, I am not in this card game, and the outcome is undecided, but you are already here, and...from the moment you decide to take action, you have already lost."
A hint of substantial murderous intent suddenly appeared in Xiao Wang's eyes!
"What did you say when you stepped on the horse?"
His big hand glowed red and grabbed Ren Jie's neck.
Ren Jie narrowed his eyes and said:
"Candlelight...illusion world!"
