When people saw that it was six again, they began to look at Lu Li differently. Lu Li noticed someone were checking him with psychic powers but they vanished soon.
Lady Seven was more amazed by Lu Li. Noticing that he wasn't giving her extra glances, she took the initiative, walked over to Lu Li, sat down and asked, "What is your name? Why haven't I seen you before? I am Tu Qi."
It was until now that Lu Li finally looked at Tu Qi directly. He nodded gently and said, "Greetings, Lady Seven, I am merely a regular minor warrior at the External Clan. I will not tell you my name. The war is about to start. Maybe I will be sent to war and die there tomorrow."
"Oh?"
Lady Seven was surprised, not because of his identity or his way of gambling, but because of his attitude. How could a minor warrior not bow and salute her, neither humble nor smug and remain so composed?
Lu Li's eyes were clear and his skin were tanned. He was confident. All of a sudden, Lady Seven felt Lu Li was much better than the two creamy boys.
Ye Cha had changed Lu Li's looks. He appeared to be in 30s and this kind of older man look was more appealing. When Lady Seven was fed up with the delicate kind, the rough kind was more interesting.
The key thing Lady Seven noticed was Lu Li's bearing. He had risen from grass-root level and he had the wild character that came along with it. Later, when he had become the emperor of the Northern Desert, the regal feeling was added. After all those years of experiences, he had grown and become mature. The combination of different features had made him charming.
Lu Li turned his looks back to the dice cup right away, as if he was not interested in Lady Seven at all.
He had been dealing with Madam Yan for a long time and Jiang Qiling used to be a slut as well. Therefore, he had a way of handling slutty women.
Playing hard-to-get!
The method worked like a charm. The more indifferent Lu Li was, the more attention he would earn. Slutty women had been playing with too many men. They were not attracted to the easy kind anymore.
Lady Seven acted in a reserved way. She simply looked at the dice cup and asked, "Which number now?"
Lu Li threw a glance to the steward and answered with a smile, "Let's say 10 million on the big numbers."
"Hiss, hiss~"
Another 10 million Xuan Crystals was placed by Lu Li which caused many people to hiss in surprise. More people from other tables were drawn over.
Lady Seven thought about it and said, "Then I will follow you by five million."
Punters at other tables left their games, just to watch the two. After the steward checked that nobody else was placing bets, he opened the dice cup again. It was four, the big number…
Lu Li had pocketed one billion Xuan Crystals after winning three times in a row. If Lu Li was any regular warrior at the Eternal Realm, he would be trembling in excitement.
But he drank tea, as if nothing had happened. His composed action had taken many by surprise. How could he be so calm if he was really only an average warrior at the Eternal Realm?
The steward felt he was losing control of the situation. He winked at a maid who left quietly. Soon, a white-bearded old man came, taking place of the steward and he was holding a jade dice cup in his hand.
Clearly!
The casino suspected that Lu Li was cheating but couldn't find any proof. Hence, they had to change to a different person and a more advanced dice cup.
"Ha, ha~"
Lady Seven suddenly grinned and said, "You are good. You have forced Master Zhou to come out."
The white-bearded old man said with a smile, "Lady Seven, you are here and we have a rare guest. I must come."
Lu Li and the white-bearded old man made eye contact. Lu Li was shocked to sense that the old man was powerful. Not only was he at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm, his soul was strong as well.
Their suspicions was right!
Lu Li did cheat. But he didn't check the dice cup. He couldn't probe with his psychic power. If he had forced it, it would be noted by the casino. If he was caught cheating, then it would not end up well for him.
Lu Li had cheated in a very simple way. He had been observing that steward's soul. Instead of searching his soul, Lu Li was only sensing for the fluctuation.
Lady Seven had been placing bets on small numbers for several times but had lost. The steward had intended to have a winner for a change. Lu Li got lucky and won.
The second time, the steward's soul was fluctuating violently. Lu Li guessed that the steward wanted to get back at him so Lu Li betted on six again.
People from outside of the casino could not cheat but the casino must have a way.
This was Lu Li's conviction all along. Otherwise, how would the casino win? How did so many people become bankrupt?
Now that the Master Zhou had come, one with strong soul, Lu Li didn't dare to check again. He would be caught by this master.
"Which number? Which one?"
After Master Zhou placed the dice cup on the table, Lady Seven immediately asked Lu Li in excitement. He frowned and said nothing for a while. Afterwards, he shook his head and said, "I cannot feel it this time. Lady Seven, what do you think?"
Lady Seven was disappointed. She thought about it and said randomly, "I think three!"
"Okay, I trust you, Lady Seven!"
Lu Li stood up, smiled and then put all his chips on three, which astonished everyone here.
Lu Li had chips for 100 million Xuan Crystals to begin with. After he won several times, the chips he had were enough for more than one billion Xuan Crystals, almost equal to a lifetime accumulation of a small family.
A minor warrior at the Eternal Realm placed a bet of one billion on some random number Lady Seven had said?
Lady Seven was getting nervous. She was panting because she had no feeling of the number and had just said something casually. She didn't expect Lu Li to put everything on the number…
Even though Lady Seven was a disciple of the Tu Family, her status was not exalted enough or else she wouldn't have to marry a husband that could not consummate the marriage. Therefore, she didn't have much asset. Maybe several billion Xuan Crystals was nothing for her but she wouldn't be so generous as to place one billion in a single bet.
She grabbed Lu Li's hands and said in a rush, "Don't be so impulsive. I have just said without thinking."
Looking at her grabbing his hands, Lu Li knew he had succeeded tonight. He didn't care if he won or lost the bet. Lady Seven was who he tried to win.
He turned to look at her, laughed and said, "Ha, ha, ha. I am nobody. I might go to war tomorrow and die. I have no use to have this Xuan Crystals lying around. Instead, our enemies will take them. So, I thought I just might as well spend it all. If I can win, then I will give all my Xuan Crystals to you, Lady Seven. If not, then it doesn't matter. If I can survive this war, Lady Seven, buy me a drink. Now let's see it!"
Lu Li's valiant words and his hearty laugh had made Lady Seven smitten. She didn't take her hands back and stared at the dice cup nervously.
Lu Li said he would give all the Xuan Crystals to her if he won. That was six billion, a large amount even for Lady Seven.
Everyone was holding breaths. Master Zhou opened the dice cup slowly. All had were disappointed. The number was five. Lu Li had lost all his Xuan Crystals.
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Lu Li patted Lady Seven's hands. He laughed carefreely and said, "So, we ran out of our luck. Lady Seven, I have lost all my money. I should go back and turn in. If I survive the war, remember to buy me a drink. Ha, ha, ha!"
Lu Li left while laughing. His heroic bearing and steady steps moved many people. Not many could be as carefree and wild as he was.
"Wait!"
When Lu Li was about to step out of the door, Lady Seven finally came to her senses. She yelled, "You are risking your life for the Tu Family. I should buy you a drink. Don't wait till after the war. Let's do it tonight. Think of it as me seeing you off."
"Sure, thank you Lady Seven. I did just lose all my drink money."
Lu Li stopped. He turned back and smile. The fish had bitten his bait. The 100 million Xuan Crystals were well-spent.
Lu Li realized he seemed to be a powerful remedy for sluts, looking at how Lady Seven's eyes were sparkling, her cheeks rosy and her eyes misty in lust…
