Chapter 4931

Upon hearing that, Bao Hu began sizing up Kai, Xiu Rui, and Hu Mazi—since those three were unfamiliar to him, Bai Yi’s son-in-law had to be among them.

“Which one of the three is it?” Bao Hu asked.

Bai Yi pointed to Kai. “This one.”

Bao Hu was momentarily stunned before bursting into laughter. “Old Bai, your son-in-law’s only at the first level of the Immortal Realm and looks like a stick. What are you so proud of?”

“Don’t underestimate people,” Bai Yi snorted. “He may look thin, but my son-in-law is packed with muscle.”

“So, are you brave enough to take the challenge?”

“Why wouldn’t I be?” Bao Hu sneered. “I’ll send out anyone to smash your son-in-law into the ground.”

“Great, since you’re not backing down,” Bai Yi said, then turned to Kai. “Son-in-law, you good to go?”

“I’m good, Father-in-law. We’ll see who ends up smashed later,” Kai replied with confidence.

“Perfect,” Bai Yi nodded.

The group headed toward the arena, and Bao Hu said, “Old Bai, same rules as before—one hundred thousand immortal coins per match. If you don’t have enough, use resources to make up the difference.”

“No problem,” Bai Yi agreed.

When Kai heard the match would cost one hundred thousand immortal coins, he couldn’t help but feel the pressure mount.

Back in the official arena, a single match cost only a hundred immortal coins, and you’d get just a thousand after ten matches.

You could even buy two women for just five hundred immortal coins.

He hadn’t expected the black market stakes to start at one hundred thousand.

“Father-in-law, isn’t this bet a little too steep?” Kai asked quietly.

“Steep, my ass,” Bai Yi snapped. “Bao Hu took over a hundred thousand immortal coins from me last time. You better win a few matches and get it all back.”

“Better yet, go undefeated and bankrupt that punk—take his whole black market.”
Bai Yi had high hopes for Kai.

“Let me give it a shot,” Kai said, speechless at the pressure.

“Old Bai, stop stalling and let your son-in-law get on stage already,” Bao Hu said mockingly. “But let me be blunt—your son-in-law looks too scrawny. If he ends up getting slapped to death, don’t come crying to me.”

“It’s not certain who’s going to die yet,” Kai retorted, then jumped onto the stage.

At that moment, Bao Hu turned to a tall, muscular man beside him. “Xiaohu, you go up. Don’t hold back. Win this round and I’ll give you a share of the 100,000 immortal coins.”

“Thank you, big brother!” Xiaohu replied happily, then leapt onto the stage.

Kai eyed Xiaohu—over three meters tall with fists bigger than his own head. This guy’s called ‘Little Tiger’?

Next to him, Kai really did look skinny.

“Everyone, we’re having a match against Linghufang. If anyone wants to place a bet, now’s the time!” Bao Hu shouted to the crowd. “Bet whatever you want—I’m sure Bai Fangzhu will cough up the winnings in the end.”

The cultivators in the black market quickly gathered around.

When they saw Kai and Xiaohu on the stage, laughter erupted.

“Bai Fangzhu, is Linghufang out of people? Why send someone so thin up there?”

“Looks like Bai Fangzhu isn’t short on cash if he’s throwing matches like this!”

“I’m betting 1,000 immortal coins on Baohufang! I’m going all in!”

“Same here, all in!”

The crowd went wild, all placing their bets on Baohufang. In a match that seemed like a guaranteed win, who wouldn’t want to cash in?

“Master…” Nuo Qing leaned over and whispered to Bai Yi, “The total bet is too high. We might not be able to cover the payouts.”

“It’s fine,” Bai Yi said calmly. “I believe in my son-in-law.”
