My Master Knows It All-Chapter 508 - 182_5

"I know you, Peak Master Cao, as a cultivator, might not care about these things, but this is a gesture of my good will. If you don’t accept, I will feel uneasy. I implore you not to decline,"

Yi Qiancheng spoke without giving Cao Zhen a chance to respond, and immediately added, "Yi Sheng, this time, thanks to you, I was able to meet Peak Master Cao and learn of this method. Therefore, I’m also offering you a 10% share in the Xing Kui Betting Shop."

Having said this, he felt a surge of triumph within. After all, Peak Master Cao was Yi Sheng’s master, and now that he had offered his own daughter shares, it would be hard for Peak Master Cao to refuse. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

By just giving out a 10% share of the Xing Kui Betting Shop, he had brought Peak Master Cao to his side; no matter how he looked at it, it was a winning deal.

Eventually, when the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth comes, true chaos will reign.

If someone were to make a move against the Xing Kui Betting Shop, that would mean going against Peak Master Cao’s interests. To offend someone reincarnated as a Great Ability, who has several disciples and partners at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, would not be wise.

Before the time comes, just mention Peak Master Cao’s backing, and see who dares to make a move.

Now with the relationship to the Xing Kui Betting Shop established, why fear the future absence of opportunities to further deepen ties with Peak Master Cao?

As for the other 10% share, Yi Sheng was naturally his own beloved daughter. He only had this one precious daughter, so what was wrong with giving her some dowry in advance?

"Well, if the Family Head Yi insists thus, if I were to refuse, would it not imply that I don’t give you face? Then I shall gratefully accept,"

Cao Zhen watched with a smiling face across the table, finding Yi Qiancheng to be quite likable; he truly provided benefits when it mattered.

A 10% share of the Xing Kui Betting Shop—how many Spirit Stones, how many Spirit Crystals would that be worth? The key point was that Yi Qiancheng also spoke pleasantly; although he was offering gifts, he made it seem as though Cao Zhen was at a disadvantage, that by accepting a gift, he scored a bargain.

Cao Zhen enjoyed befriending such people. When he manages to craft Pills and breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm, freeing up some time, he could chat with Yi Qiancheng about deepening their cooperation.

As Cao Zhen consented, Yi Qiancheng’s smile blossomed even more radiantly. He turned to Yi Jin and instructed, "Now, go find all the accountants of our betting shop and explain to them the betting methods your sister mentioned. Have them calculate how to place bets to ensure the maximum profit for our establishment."

Cao Zhen was not surprised by Yi Qiancheng’s instructions.

Betting shops aren’t charitable organizations; they are naturally aimed at making a profit.

In his past life, those betting companies did the same, didn’t they?

Their ultimate goal was to make money, which is why they would retain a host of actuaries with high salaries to calculate how to set odds so that they could turn a greater profit.

Thus, the vast majority of those who gambled ended up losing.

For the light-hearted, it meant being burdened with debt and becoming an outcast, and for the severe cases, it meant losing everything—family, home, and even life.

Therefore, he generally wouldn’t bet unless it was on himself.

His actions didn’t count as gambling or taking a risk, but outright cheating!

If he can’t bet on himself, he would never place a bet on someone else. Because he didn’t want to hand over his money to the betting shop!

With Yi Jin leaving the room, Yi Qiancheng turned to his daughter, setting business aside, and said with a smile, "I heard about it, my daughter. Today on the competition platform you were truly formidable, defeating nine opponents by yourself. And one of them was the same as you, also an eight Golden Core cultivator."

Father, I still have a long way to go. Compared to my senior brothers and sisters, I am lacking by a lot," Yi Sheng said with some self-reproach, "And my control was rather poor, causing severe injuries to a few. I didn’t mean to hurt them that badly, but it seems my judgment and control are still insufficient."

It wasn’t that she was womanly merciful and did not wish to injure the others.

She referred to those of the third and fourth stages of the Golden Core realm, whose strength greatly differed from hers; it wasn’t necessary for her to inflict serious injuries on them. She was more reproaching herself for not having better control.

"You can’t blame yourself for that," Yi Qiancheng quickly consoled when he saw his daughter reproaching herself, "Those who participate in the assembly for combat prepared for injury.

Since it is a competition, whether by duel or fight, it’s similar. Once on the platform, anyone can get hurt. Moreover, I heard that today someone was even killed in the competition."

At this point, Yi Qiancheng paused mid-sentence, looking at his daughter with deep concern, "Little Sheng, you... attending this assembly, there will be danger. Although you are at the level of an eight phenomena Golden Core, there still exists those at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection. When you face them..."

He was about to say, to surrender against those unbeatable opponents, but seeing Cao Zhen nearby, he swallowed those words. Such remarks would surely offend Peak Master Cao.

Still, he felt the need to say it, but would look for a chance when Peak Master Cao wasn’t around to talk to his daughter.

When Yi Sheng heard her father’s words, her expression immediately turned solemn, and looking at Cao Zhen, she said, "If I encounter them, I will fight with all my might, not to bring shame to the Immortal Sect or my own sect, our Hundred Peaks Sect..."

"Wait a moment..." Cao Zhen directly interrupted Yi Sheng, "How many times have I taught you? ’Play it safe, don’t showboat.’
