Although he didn’t deliberately leak the secret, it was better for people who didn’t keep their mouths shut to know fewer secrets.

Yan Baichuan also knew that he was in the wrong. From then on, he did not ask Han Zhao about alchemy.

In short, Han Zhao still treated him as a friend, but he would not be sincere. “Junior Brother Han, do you know that something big has happened in the

“What is it?” Han Zhao looked confused.

“The deputy leader of the Furious Flood Dragon Gang, Qian Luohai, challenged the Rain Overturning Sword, Lang Fanyun. In just two hours, the news spread throughout the entire prefecture capital.” Yan Baichuan went straight to the point.

“Is that so?” Han Zhao pondered.

“The time is set to be on the third of June next month. At that time, a large number of martial artists will go nearby to watch the battle. It’s rare to see a Grandmaster battle in ten years. Aren’t you going to watch it together?” Yan Baichuan looked excited.

“I’m not too interested.” Han Zhao shook his head.

When Yan Baichuan heard this, his expression froze. “This… Alright then. Since you’re not interested, I’ll go myself. Actually, I’m not very interested. It’s just that I placed a bet at the Silver Hook Gambling Den, so I have to see the results immediately. Otherwise, the hundred taels of silver…”

“What did you say?!” Han Zhao grabbed Yan Baichuan’s shoulders forcefully.

“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said anything about the bet in front of you. I’ll…” Yan Baichuan smiled awkwardly.

“I meant the first sentence!” Han Zhao’s eyes widened.

“I bet at the Silver Hook Gambling Den?” Yan Baichuan was dumbfounded.

“What are the odds?!” Han Zhao hurriedly said.

“One to ten. Everyone thinks that Qian Luohai will win,” Yan Baichuan explained.

Han Zhao’s pupils dilated.

“Junior Brother Han, what’s wrong?” “Brother Yan, how’s our relations.h.i.+p?”

“Of course, we’re good friends.”

Han Zhao’s expression turned serious as he said seriously, “No! You’re my beloved friend and brother!”

Yan Baichuan was touched. “Junior Brother Han, so that’s what you think? I thought that what you said last time made you..

“Brother Yan, can you lend me ten thousand taels of silver? I’ll return it to you next month,” Han Zhao interrupted him.

“This… I can take out 10,000 taels, but…” Yan Baichuan was dumbfounded.

“Brother Han, aren’t you irreconcilable with drugs and gambling?”

“You heard wrongly. I’m just not into drugs! Actually, I’ve tried quitting gambling for many years and failed,” Han Zhao hurriedly said. “Alright, then I’ll go home and get the money.” Yan Baichuan nodded.

“Thank you, Brother Yan. I’ll wait for you! Come back quickly!” Han Zhao pushed Yan Baichuan out of the martial arts academy.

“I have to find Senior Sister Lu quickly. We can’t miss this opportunity to make a fortune.

Han Zhao hurriedly ran towards the Sword Rain Courtyard.

After this job was done, he would not lack money for two to three years.

Just like that, Han Zhao used his reputation and the rest of his life as a guarantee to borrow a little from the senior and junior sisters of the Sword Rain Courtyard and gathered more than 10,000 taels of silver.

On the third day of the sixth month, the sky was clear and the weather was good.

A hundred miles away from the prefecture capital of Yuan Chang County, by the Long Forest River, pa.s.senger boats and pleasure boats were parked all over the river.

Although the Furious Flood Dragon Gang would collect tolls, they fulfilled their responsibility of maintaining public order on the river very well. Therefore, there was an endless stream of merchant s.h.i.+ps on the Long Forest River. Many scholars and ink merchants lingered in the pleasure boats on the river all year round. They recited poems and composed poems all day long, singing and dancing to liven things up. They were very happy.

Today, there were several times more pa.s.senger boats and pleasure boats in the Long Forest River.

“Is it really strange? I usually come to the pleasure boat to drink at this time. There are definitely not so many people. It’s making it so that I can’t even find my own pleasure boat.”

A young master with a pale face and unsteady footsteps stood by the river. He looked at the tourists who surrounded the river and scratched his head in confusion.

“I’m afraid this brother hasn’t gone out recently, right? Otherwise, how could he not know of such a grand event?”

At this moment, a young man in blue and holding a folding fan spoke. Beside him stood a young girl in a white dress with a light veil on her face.

“Brother, do you know what’s going on?” The young master asked.

The young man in blue smiled faintly. “A month ago, the deputy leader of the Furious Flood Dragon Gang, the largest gang in the west, the tenth expert on the Black Ranking known as the Iron Chain Crossing the River, Qian Luohai, challenged the new expert on the Qilin List, Lang Fanyun, who was known as the Rain Overturning Sword. The time is today, and the venue is on the river. Other than the scholars and calligraphers who come to tour the s.h.i.+p every day, most of the tourists here are martial artists who have come to watch the battle.”

“It has to be known that when a martial artist breaks through, other than immersing themselves in bitter cultivation, they can comprehend the most in this life-and-death situation. It’s rare for a Grandmaster Realm expert to fight with his life, let alone a public battle.”

“Brother, you really know a lot. I’m Jiang Ming. How should I address you?”

“Brother Jiang is too polite. My name is Su Tianqi. This is my cousin, Su Ningqiu.”

“So it’s Brother Su and Miss Su. I’ve heard a lot about you.” Jiang Ming cupped his fists and said, “If the two of you don’t mind, why don’t you board the s.h.i.+p with me to watch the battle? We’ll join in the fun.”

“Very good, very good.” Su Tianqi closed his fan and clapped his hands with a smile.

The three of them boarded the pleasure boat and sailed all the way to the center of the river.

Halfway through, they saw large s.h.i.+ps with the Inky Flood Dragon flag surrounding the river area in the center.

“No moving forward!”

The members of the Furious Flood Dragon Gang rowed the fast boat to the front of the pleasure boat and shouted a warning.

“Then how can other boats enter? Don’t tell me you still want to charge tickets? I don’t lack money!” Jiang Ming immediately expressed his dissatisfaction when he saw the two pleasure boats in front slowly enter the sealed river area in front of him. No one stopped them..
