The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 348 - 175: She is a Dissector! _2

"Oh dear, Mr. Huo, you’ve guessed wrong again, the Bronze Snake won~~~"

"No matter, there’s still the fourth round, watch me win it all back in no time!"

Sipping on the wine served by the maids, Huo Xin, flanked by ladies, had a noticeable blush creeping onto his handsome face.

But he lost again. Four rounds of beast combat, and not a single bet went his way.

The faces of those who’d followed his bets were as gloomy as rain clouds.

On the other hand, those who bet against him were all smiles, looking as delighted as three-hundred-pound chubby kids.

"Impossible! I’ve lost every single bet!"

Huo Xin suddenly shoved the women on either side of him away and unexpectedly rushed onto the beast combat arena.

With a flick of his arm, three energy daggers swift as lightning were plunged into the carcass of the Red-eye Meat-eating Rabbit.

"Hiss!!"

The surviving Pointed Hedgehog still had some fight left in it.

Enraged, it instantly transformed into a ball of spikes and rolled in a charging attack as soon as it detected a living being approaching.

"Looking for death!"

With a shimmer of light, a beast appeared in front of Huo Xin.

It was a small, elegant cat covered in golden fish scales.

Perfectly fitting its nickname "Jin Shanshan", it maneuvered behind the Pointed Hedgehog in a single leap. Its claws sharp as blades and the hedgehog’s defenses might as well have been made of thin paper. It effortlessly shredded the hedgehog’s skull.

"Thud——"

The Pointed Hedgehog died. The whole process did not exceed ten seconds.

Standing on the arena, Huo Xin was swaying and seemed unsteady.

His face was flushed, but it was unclear whether it was from drunkenness or anger.

In any case, his sudden outburst attracted the attention of everyone present, silencing all the gamblers who dared not utter a word.

——This was Anlatusa’s territory after all!

Huo Xin’s behavior had clearly violated the rules!

If anyone else had done the same, the security personnel would definitely swarm them. Anyone who dared to resist would be met with a concerted attack from a horde of beasts, leaving no chance of retaliation.

"Mr. An..."

The officer, with a Corpulent Hound as his Contracted Spirit, stood a towering two meters thirty-five tall.

He stood by Anlatusa’s side, bent over in a display of humility but with a hint of difficulty apparent on his face.

The rest of the security personnel were subtly surrounding the arena, as if awaiting Anlatusa’s order to charge forth.

"Mr. Huo, such an act of indiscipline after a few drinks is unbecoming, no?"

"I understand, battles like these must be a bit boring for you."

"Since you’re not happy, I won’t hold anything back. Some of my men caught a few rare Fond Spirits just a few days ago. The weakest among them is at the Rainbow Light Great Completion, seeing them fight would definitely be interesting..."

After casting a glance at the officer, Anlatusa then turned to Huo Xin all smiles.

With no killing intent leaking from his presence and a gentle smile on his face, he looked like a senior doting on a junior - half indulgence, half relaxation.

The officer’s cold sweat instantly began to flow.

The rest of the security personnel quickly backed off, not daring to reveal any further signs of hostility.

"Mr. Huo is one of the Ten Talents of Canghai Pavilion, if anything happens to him here, I’m afraid Mr. An’s underground casino will not be able to continue operations..."

"Ultimately, it’s strength that determines the rules. Without strength, you’re just a small fry wherever you go..."

The outermost part of the crowd was filled with barely audible whispers.

Ye Hanjun was leisurely counting the chips he had just won.

He had exchanged a total of 3000 chips at the start.

Now he had 3536, not only did he recoup his original amount, he made a bit of a profit.

"There are even more formidable beast combats?"

Huo Xin’s anger visibly subsided.

He glared at Anlatusa, his words slurred:

"You old man, honestly..."

"If you have such treasures, why won’t you reveal them? Until the last moment..."

"Oh, come now."

Stepping forward, Anlatusa supported Huo Xin’s shoulders, smiling pleasantly:

"Isn’t it just a bit of warm-up, to set the atmosphere?"

"When the mood is right and the audience is ready, bringing out the ace beast combats would make for a perfect conclusion to this night."

"Indeed."

With a wave of his hand, Huo Xin first embraced the Golden Fish Scale Cat, then sidestepped Anlatusa’s support and returned to his seat on his own.

"Hurry up, the wine’s run out, bring more wine!"

"Where did the women go? Why did they run so far away? Come here, one of you massage my feet! One of you massage my back! One of you perform the Beautiful Snake Dance! One of you perform the Peacock Dance!"

"And... Mr. An! Hurry and bring up the ace beast combat, this young master wants to see just how rare, how ace it is!"

"If it’s just all talk, and there’s nothing to it, this young master’s about to get angry!"

"Did you hear me, bring those four captures from a few days ago, bring them here."

Anlatusa watched Huo Xin with a smile, his peek-a-boo eyes remaining cold and indifferent.

Without a doubt, if Huo Xin was anyone but Huo Xin, say Huo Sen, Huo Miao, Huo Yan, Huo Yao... he wouldn’t survive tonight.

"Yes!"

The officer wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and hurried towards the backstage.

"Speaking of which, Mr. An, if I were to come to the casino every day, would I get to see you every day?"

"What if you’re not here when I come one day, won’t I miss the chance to see the Rainbow Light-level beast fights? That would be too disappointing, what a poor customer experience!"

"Most of the time, I won’t be leaving the casino, Mr. Huo is always welcome to visit."

Anlatusa responded indifferently.

Dongfang Xu subtly detested him, his words sounded like a fart, it was as if he said nothing at all.

"Wait, Mr. An."
