Invincible Immortal Cultivator in the City
Chapter 258 - 257 Wind Snake

Chapter 258: Chapter 257 Wind Snake

Unbeknownst to others, Lin Hao had already appeared in front of the table laid out by the major gambler.

Without any noticeable movement, the dozens of burly men gathered around the table were pushed aside by an invisible force, rolling all over the ground unceremoniously.

No one saw how Lin Hao made it from the entrance of the grand tavern to the plaza hundreds of meters away.

With Lin Hao’s arrival, the plaza seemed to be burdened with an invisible mountain, so heavy that it left countless people gasping for air.

So powerful!

Only then did these foreigners realize that they could not see through Lin Hao’s Realm!

Because of their bloodline, Huaxia people have stronger Cultivation, while Westerners have Divine Cultivation.

Both are forms of Cultivation, and in terms of strength and Realm, they’re actually quite similar.

Those present, able to mix in Freedom City, naturally had significant Cultivation.

But in front of Lin Hao, all of them felt as though they couldn’t lift their heads.

"How about it? Do you dare to take on this bet?"

Lin Hao’s expression was cold, like a peerless Emperor, walking towards the betting table.

Silence, a death-like silence.

What was just moments ago a plaza bustling ten times more than a market, was now utterly quiet, with only the patter of the rain and countless heartbeats flowing through the air.

This Huaxia youth actually intends to turn the assets of the East Atlantic Company on Transshipment Island to ashes within three days, and moreover, he declared such intention right in front of the entrance to the East Atlantic Company’s important stronghold, the East Atlantic tavern.

What an enormous claim!

"Has this Huaxia youth lost his mind? What did he just say? Turn the East Atlantic Company’s assets on Transshipment Island to ashes within three days?"

"He really is young and foolish. Does he not know that just a month ago, the East Atlantic Company drove their Huaxia people off Resurrection Island? They’re still ignorant of the wider world, soon he won’t even know how he died!"

"With just the four of them, they want to challenge the East Atlantic Company? They should worry about passing the obstacle in front of them first. Are there no experts inside the East Atlantic tavern?"

"However, a billion US dollars, eh? With someone giving away money like an idiot, how can we not gamble? I bet! I stake ten thousand US dollars, betting this kid will fail!"

In the plaza, gamblers suddenly became excited and ran over to place their bets.

Many people even took out all their belongings to bet.

Money, Lin Hao didn’t care for it.

However, that these foreigners were treating Lin Hao’s stirring up trouble as entertainment, betting on the side, was something Lin Hao couldn’t tolerate.

Seeing how enthusiastically these foreigners were betting, the corner of his mouth curled into a cold smile.

Since they all loved gambling, then let them lose everything.

If they wanted to watch the show, they would have to pay the admission fee!

"One billion US dollars, swipe the card."

After all, the bank card given by Long Si allowed him to swipe at will; Lin Hao didn’t care and directly swiped one billion on the banker’s card reader.

This time, the breaths of the foreigners in the plaza all became rapid.

A billion US dollars!

Many people would not earn that much money even after risking their lives dozens of times.

Yet this young man just casually said it and swiped without even a frown on his face.

Is this what the wealthy from Huaxia are like?

"I bet a hundred thousand US dollars, heh heh heh, I’ve long heard that Huaxia people are rich and foolish, and seeing it today, it’s really true. This money, I’m going to win it!"

With that, the plaza erupted into an even bigger frenzy as everyone rushed to place their bets.

No one believed that Lin Hao could turn East Atlantic’s assets on Transshipment Island into ashes within three days.

It was simply an impossible feat!

Countless people looked at Lin Hao as if they were looking at a fool.

But Lin Hao was not only unangered, he actually felt like laughing.

Just at this moment, finally, some commotion erupted from within the East Atlantic restaurant.

"Clap, clap, clap!"

A crisp round of applause echoed inside the restaurant.

The clapping was not loud, yet as it began, a fierce wind swirled up from the ground floor of the East Atlantic restaurant, whirling up all the debris from the floor and sweeping it out towards the entrance.

Crash!

Glass shards mixed with fallen rocks and furniture swirled in the wind like a gigantic python, charging crazily out from the hall.

The unstoppable momentum went straight for Song Qinghong and his two companions, who were in the midst of their vandalism.

"A master!"

Song Qinghong’s eyes lit up, sensing the world-shattering force within the fierce wind. Not daring to be careless, he mobilized his Primordial Qi and struck out with his palm.

"Overestimating yourself!"

From within the fierce wind, a voice with an Asian accent in English was heard.

"Boom!"

"Spit!"

The wind and Song Qinghong’s palm clashed, resulting in a loud bang.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the violent wind broke through Song Qinghong’s Hand Power, and before he could dodge, he was swept by the wind, spitting out blood, flying out like a kite with its string cut.

Indeed, very strong.

Even though it was Lin Hao’s first time hearing about the East Atlantic Company, he knew it was a colossal entity.

With someone smashing up the place, it was impossible not to have someone guarding it.

Lin Hao had been waiting.

And now, the principal finally showed up.

From the moment he appeared, he took a hard stance, to the extent that Song Qinghong, a Refining God Realm master, was not a match at all.

"Whoosh!"

The whirlwind mixed with rocks, glass, and assorted debris howled as it surged out, unexpectedly changing direction right at the entrance of the East Atlantic restaurant.

The front lifted upwards, shaping into a tornado-like python, hissing loudly and lunging forward.

Song Qinghong, struck and sent flying, had no time to stabilize himself in midair and was instantly snatched up by the wind-formed colossal python!

"Roar!"

The wind howled, and the giant python composed of wind and debris, holding Song Qinghong in its grasp, stood proudly at the gateway of the East Atlantic restaurant like a snake king.

"It’s Wind Snake!"

On the square, the crowd of onlookers was stunned by the sight of the giant wind serpent, all of them stepping back.

Everyone was astounded, their expressions filled with excitement and thrill.

"One of the twelve great masters of the East Atlantic Company, known as the one who’s most attuned with the Wind Element, Louis Wind Snake, I can’t believe he’s actually here!"

"I was saying, what are these Huaxia people thinking, faffing about with loads of money, even splurging a billion US dollars, probably some wastrel son from a big Huaxia family lineage, those three must be his bodyguards."

"Heh, his strongest bodyguard has been caught by Wind Snake, he’s as good as dead. Now, there’s no need to mention that young master himself, he’s definitely going to die too."

"To be able to divide up a billion dollars without lifting a finger today might just be the wisest decision of my life. After this Huaxia fool is killed by Wind Snake, we can split the money, a billion dollars! Just thinking about it gives me a little thrill."

Whispers were everywhere around the square.

Clearly, this Wind Snake had quite a reputation among these Westerners.

"Huaxia people, you dare to cause trouble on the turf of East Atlantic Company." Inside the restaurant, a young, crisp voice that was also tinged with sanctity and arrogance rang out: "You’re truly courting death. Now kneel and commit suicide. Otherwise, you will inevitably suffer the torment of being skinned and fed to the fish."

The square immediately fell silent once more, with the Westerners excited and thrilled looking towards the restaurant’s entrance, but they looked at Lin Hao with eyes reserved for the dead and with glee in their misfortune.
