"The wager was worth sixty million Low-Grade Spirit Stones in total, and they even staked their Dantians on it?!"
Captain Wang could not help looking startled.
It was hard to imagine a wager any bigger!
By then, he had a fair idea of what had happened, but he still listened carefully.
The shopkeeper soon recounted the entire affair, including Mo Hong's arrival and how Qin Hao had been forced to defend himself.
The tremendous commotion had alerted the Patrol Guards.
In short, Qin Hao and Ge Tao had engaged in Stone Gambling, and Ge Tao had lost. Under the terms of their wager, Ge Tao's Dantian and Spirit Stones now belonged to Qin Hao!
There was nothing to argue about!
At the Southern Region Domain Group's largest Rough Stone Marketplace, Stone Gambling wagers were nothing unusual. Their terms were generally upheld.
There was no room for dispute!
That was why Ge Tao and his two companions had been so confident at first. If Ge Tao won, they had no fear that Qin Hao could back out.
If it came to that, they could simply summon the Armored Soldiers!
The real point of contention was the exchange of blows between Mo Hong and Qin Hao.
Of course...
"Mo Hong struck first!" The Armored Soldier captain fixed Mo Hong with a cold stare. He did not care who stood before him. As long as the man was not a Venerable, he would enforce the rules, even against a Half-Step Venerable.
As the Patrol Guards of Absolute Immortal City, they answered to the four great sects of the Absolute Immortal Domain, so they had to be fair and impartial.
"Mo Hong, you attacked without provocation. Fortunately, no one was injured, but you seriously violated the rules of Absolute Immortal City's Rough Stone Marketplace.
