Everyone was stunned when they saw the number rolled on the last die.

"The last one, also at 6 o'clock..."

Three sixes make 18 points, which is one point higher than the dealer's score. The outcome is already clear.

Liu Kun didn't actually faint; he was just shocked by the result. He couldn't understand how this unremarkable country bumpkin had managed to get three 6s.

It's important to understand that this isn't done by hand-rolling dice; it's controlled by a machine. If you don't know the specific mechanisms, no matter how strong you are, you won't be able to roll the dice you want.

Liu Kun immediately suspected that the croupier had colluded with the country bumpkin.

Looking at the dealer, who only returned the same shocked expression, tinged with a hint of helplessness, Liu Kun snapped out of his daze. Whether the dealer had colluded with the other party or not, it was too late to say anything now; the bet was set, and he had already lost 1 million Destroyer Coin. The thought of this outcome sent a chill down Liu Kun's spine. Not only had he failed to win the Destroyer's City, but he had also lost his entire fortune, plus the money he'd used to bribe the powerful figure. Liu Kun could already foresee his tragic fate.

"Liu Jieyin, pay up!" Li Wei was ready to kick a man when he was down and started demanding payment.

At this point, Liu Kun could only swallow his anger. He hated Li Wei to the core, but he dared not renege on his debt, knowing that many people present had witnessed the bet.

"You... you really have some impressive skills, I admire you. I'll give you the money, but we'll see how things go in the future!" At this point, Liu Kun could only resort to empty words.

Unexpectedly, Li Wei had no intention of letting him go.

"I don't usually give people credit. Give me 1 million Destroyer Coin right now. You're not going to gamble because you don't have the money, are you?"

Liu Kun's face turned ashen, but he swallowed his anger and summoned one of his men, ordering him to go back and get the money. After a short while, the man returned, his face deathly pale, and whispered a few words in Liu Kun's ear.

Li Wei, standing to the side, smiled and thought to himself, "This servant must be reporting on the theft at Liu Kun's house."

As expected, Liu Kun's expression remained normal at first, but in an instant, his eyes widened in disbelief.

What? You're saying the money's lost?

Liu Kun's voice was loud, and seemingly realizing his loss of composure, Liu Kun quickly lowered his voice, grabbed his subordinate by the collar, and said fiercely, "Say it again, what exactly happened?"

The servant was clearly terrified and hurriedly stammered out what had happened. The gist of it was that after returning to Liu Kun's house, he followed Liu Kun's instructions to find the place where the black cards were stored, only to discover that it had already been ransacked, and the cards containing millions of Destroyer Coin had vanished without a trace.

Liu Kun's vision went black, and he nearly fainted again.

"How could this be? I put that money in a very secret place. Who could have stolen it?" Liu Kun's mind was in chaos, but when he saw Li Wei's smile, he suddenly realized what had happened.

"It's you, it must be you! You must have overheard my conversation, and you stole the money too! Damn it, I'm not done with you!" With that, Liu Kun actually formed his fingers into claws and lunged at Li Wei.

He completely forgot Li Wei's identity and combat strength.

Seeing Liu Kun, who had gone mad, Li Wei sneered, and instead of dodging, threw a punch at him, clashing head-on with Liu Kun's hand.

A sound of bones breaking was heard, Liu Kun screamed as he flew backward, crashing into a table with dice before falling to the ground. His fingers were all broken.

"Losing money but refusing to admit it, lying that your house was burgled, how could you even think of that... That would be one thing, but to try and pin this on me and even try to hurt me is going too far. Everyone, please judge for me, how should I respond to this?" Li Wei deliberately raised his voice.

Those around him clearly believed that Liu Kun had cheated, and naturally, they overwhelmingly supported Li Wei.

"Let's just kill this shameless guy and be done with it!"

"Yes, a mere guide dares to attack the Destroyer. It's outrageous! If we don't kill him, won't everyone be able to look down on us Destroyer from now on?"

"Kill him!"

Kill him!

The crowd was immediately agitated, especially the three members of the Greedy Wolf, who shouted fiercely, much like Li Wei's temperament.

Liu Kun's finger was broken by Li Wei's punch, and his face was ashen, but his eyes still gleamed with a fierce light. Li Wei saw this and understood that Liu Kun could not be allowed to live.

After thinking for a moment, Li Wei stepped forward and said to everyone, "I won't make things difficult for him. As long as he pays back all the money he owes me, then this matter will be over. I have that much magnanimity. Even if he doesn't have the money, it doesn't matter. If he doesn't have the money... he can just pull down his pants and show everyone, and we'll call it even!"

As soon as Li Wei finished speaking, the crowd cheered loudly. Those who dared to come here to gamble were all fearless, since gambling is all about the thrill. Li Wei's words had piqued their interest; witnessing a high-ranking guide take off his pants in public was quite a spectacle.

The three men Greedy Wolf and his companion, stared intently at Liu Kun's crotch, their eyes gleaming. Li Wei felt a chill run down his spine, wondering to himself if these three were involved in homosexual relationships.

Looking at Liu Kun again, Li Wei understood that his words were meant to thoroughly enrage the other party. If Liu Kun dared to attack him again, even if he killed him on the spot, no one would say anything, and the forces behind Liu Kun would have no reason to deal with him.

Being ridiculed by everyone, Liu Kun felt incredibly humiliated. Then, the other party even suggested that he take off his pants, completely overwhelming Liu Kun's last shred of rationality.

"You country bumpkin, you've gone too far! I'll kill you today!" Liu Kun's eyes were bloodshot. He took out a cloth bag, reached out and pulled out a nine-section whip.

This nine-section whip was clearly no ordinary item. With a few swings in Liu Kun's hands, the wind howled, and the hall instantly descended into chaos. Then, consumed by rage, Liu Kun lashed out at Li Wei.

"You asked for it, don't blame me!"

Li Wei smiled inwardly, then suddenly activated the Blood Control Method, the Blood Slaughter Technique. Liu Kun had neither the special ability to resist the Blood Control Method nor had he taken any drugs to make him immune to this attack, so Li Wei's move hit him squarely. Liu Kun was still fantasizing about smashing Li Wei's head with his nine-section whip when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart. Then, all the strength in his body seemed to be drained instantly, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud. In a short while, a large amount of blood was gushing from his mouth and nose, and he died on the spot.

"Dead?"

Everyone was stunned by what they saw. Although they were not surprised by the result, the way Liu Kun died caught their attention.

Many people looked at Li Wei with a hint of confusion, and some even seemed to understand the murder technique he had just used, but they all smiled without saying a word. However, no one looked at the dead Liu Kun anymore.

"Brother, you really have impressive skills. That move just now, could it be the Qin Family Star Domain's unique skill, the 'Blood Control Method'?" The three members of the Greedy Wolf walked over with smiles and said to Li Wei.

Li Wei found these three people quite agreeable and was inclined to befriend them. After all, in this unfamiliar place, it was better to have one more friend than one more enemy.

"Brother Greedy Wolf, you have a good eye. That move just now was indeed the Blood Control Method. If Liu Kun hadn't been plotting something and trying to trap me, I wouldn't have resorted to such a deadly attack!"

"No problem, no problem, we all saw it. This is Liu Kun's own fault. When the Casino Management Association arrives, I will definitely testify for you!" Greedy Wolf said heartily, patting his chest.

The Casino Management Association he mentioned is the organization that maintains this second-level casino, which can also be understood as the casino's 'security guard'. The fights that occur in the casino will naturally alarm them. Although no one present is afraid of the Casino Management Association, the Casino Management Association has a very powerful backing, which is not something that ordinary people can afford to offend. That's why Greedy Wolf made such a statement.

Li Wei naturally thanked him quickly.

Sure enough, the management team arrived shortly afterward. They were all armed and their combat strength was around A3. Although they weren't strong, no one in the casino dared to underestimate them.

Because they represent the mastermind behind this Money Sink, who is said to be Destroyer of a level 7 star system, with a terrifying combat power of S7 level.

With such a powerful figure backing them up, naturally no one dared to provoke them, which fostered their arrogance.

The management team members first examined Liu Kun's body, then inquired about the cause of the incident. Afterward, a glint of shrewdness appeared in their eyes as they looked at Li Wei.

"Our casino has rules against killing here. Although Liu Kun struck first, you still killed him. So come with us, or we won't be able to explain ourselves!" A gaunt old man who looked to be around 50 years old said in a sarcastic tone. Judging from the distinctive snake-like scales on his skin, he was probably Great Serpent Star People.

Before Li Wei could speak, the Greedy Wolf chuckled and stepped forward, secretly slipping a black card into the gaunt old man's hand. He said, "Manager Wang, the three of us witnessed the whole thing. It was indeed Liu Kun who deserved to die. He disregarded the casino rules and attacked first. My brother had no choice but to defend himself, but he was clumsy and accidentally injured him. I didn't expect Liu Kun to be such a loser, with such a weak constitution, to die so easily. It's really no one else's fault... And coincidentally, I had good luck and won 100,000 Destroyer Coin. I'll use that to buy some tonics for you brothers; you can't have come all this way for nothing!"

Manager Wang seemed to be quite familiar with Greedy Wolf, and naturally put the black card into his pocket.
