Chapter 204: Chapter 129 Don’t Leave After School_4
"Yes, yes, Disciple understands and will be going back now." Li Ke saw her master was about to start lecturing again and hurriedly left to look for Cao Zhen and the others.
In the huge courtyard, Cao Zhen glanced around at the nearly transparent screen of light, understanding that it must be some treasure that blocks sound, and without further concern, said to those gathered, "Folks..."
He had barely begun to speak when Li Lingwei slapped him hard on the arm and said, "What do you mean by folks? We all call you Little Sixth Son, so you should be calling us brother and sister."
As she spoke, she also raised her cup and looked at Ru Wenlin, asking, "Big brother, shouldn’t we have a drink together today to celebrate gaining a new younger brother?"
Cao Zhen noticed that, not counting himself, among the Five Evils of Hundred Peaks, the most forthright was actually the petite-looking woman Li Lingwei; moreover, she loved drinking the most. She even carried a wine gourd that was almost as big as her.
Ru Wenlin nodded slightly, "That’s indeed worth celebrating big time." With that, he raised his cup.
Everyone else lifted their cups as well and drank up.
After setting down his cup, Cao Zhen then said, "Big brothers and sisters, I just thought of something. Now everyone knows that our Hundred Peaks Sect is not weak, and the positions of the Hidden Dragon Three Sons are all held by my disciples.
Moreover, I have made a move in the Hidden Dragon Observatory before, and many are aware of my strength. Others are not fools; when it’s time for Hundred Peaks to rearrange the rankings, I reckon many will bet on Four Treasures Peak rising.
However, the odds for Four Treasures Peak moving up the ranks will probably not be high. The profit we can make will likely not be much. Therefore, I suddenly think that during this Hundred Peaks ranking, we should simply keep Four Treasures Peak’s ranking the same, continuing to stay at the hundredth position.
Probably no one would believe that we remain in the hundredth spot, right? The odds for us staying at a hundred will be the highest!"
"So, we directly bet on Four Treasures Peak not rising in the rankings!" Beichen Ying was instantly excited, "This could work! Big brothers, big sisters, let’s join forces.
Later, after dinner, let’s go out to exorcise demons and earn some Spirit Stones, then bet all on Hundred Peaks Sect staying in the hundredth rank. Just like Little Sixth Son said, definitely no one will believe that Four Treasures Peak would still be in the hundredth position."
Not far away, a Peak Master looked at Cao Zhen who was getting along famously with the Five Evils of Hundred Peaks and couldn’t help sneering, "Cao Zhen has truly accepted being one of the Hundred Peaks Six Evils. It seems he’s beyond redemption."
"Looking at that smile on his face, I think he’s even proud of it."
"Immortal Li Ke has arrived."
"Ah... it’s a pity. Immortal Li Ke is so outstanding. In our Hundred Peaks Sect, many heroes hope to become her companion, yet Immortal Li Ke has chosen Cao Zhen, one of the Hundred Peaks Six Evils."
"It’s like a fresh flower stuck in cow dung."
"I really don’t see what Immortal Li Ke sees in Cao Zhen."
"Alas, has Immortal Li Ke gone mad? She’s actually taking the initiative to look for Cao Zhen!"
Li Ke looked at the screen of light in front of Cao Zhen and his companions, her face showing a hint of surprise, and quickly stepped into it.
Though the screen could block sound, it could not stop people.
Upon entering, she didn’t wait for anyone to speak and asked, "What are you talking about?" She was really curious about what they were discussing that required sound to be blocked.
Li Lingwei, after taking a sip of her drink, casually said, "We’re talking about the upcoming reordering of Hundred Peaks, asking Little Sixth how many ranks Hundred Peaks Sect will move up." With that, she even burped and, looking at Li Ke, praised, "The Vermilion fruit brew from your Vermilion Bird Peak is really good. When we leave, could you ask someone to prepare some for me?" After all, we’re all on the same side; there’s nothing to be embarrassed about.
"The drink is certainly no problem," Li Ke didn’t care about the drink issue and instead, looked at Cao Zhen with curiosity, "By the way, I’m also quite curious, how much can your Four Treasures Peak move up?"
Cao Zhen was about to speak when Li Lingwei interjected again, "Move up? Move up what? Little Sixth said that this time, Four Treasures Peak’s ranking will stay the same because that’s the only way to make more money. After all, everyone knows that Four Treasures Peak is rising, they will all bet on Four Treasures Peak moving up. If we do the same, we won’t make much money. But the odds for staying the same will be high, and that’s how we can make money."
Cao Zhen was instantly speechless, your mouth is really quick enough, now, thanks to you, one more person knows that I don’t plan to move up the rankings, and there’s one more person to split the money with.
Li Ke showed a brief moment of surprise, then her face lit up with excitement, "That’s a great idea. In the next few days, someone should start setting up the book, and I’ll bet all I have on it when the time comes."
"Wait a moment," Cao Zhen stopped Li Ke, "you can’t bet. Now everyone knows that we two are companions. If you bet, others will surely suspect something. Who else will bet on us moving up? Everyone will definitely follow your lead. Then we won’t make anything."
Without a second thought, Li Ke said, "That’s easy, I just won’t bet myself. I can have someone else place the bet."
Cao Zhen shook his head, "Who can you ask? People from your Vermilion Bird Peak? If you ask people from Vermilion Bird Peak, others will also think something’s up. Besides, what if the person you ask leaks the information?"
