Ninth In the World

Article 3 stated that guests of Fairy No. 7 were allowed to defend themselves using any means if they were threatened in their room. Whether the threat was real or not was based solely on the guest’s account.

It was obvious that, even if Di Jiu killed Feng Qi and Qian Qijiang, he would still not be breaking the rules. This was why Di Jiu wanted them to enter his room voluntarily.

Qian Qijiang quickly swept across the Article with a smile. “You are indeed a juvenile hero. This is the first time in years that I’ve heard such a heroic statement. I’ll give you three days to return the money. If you don’t, I’m afraid your big reputation won’t prevent you from ending up dead on this ship. You must know that the dead cannot speak for themselves.”

“You’ll also have to pay 10 billion alliance dollars to the Heavenly Immortal Casino as compensation for its losses,” Feng Qi added.

These days, the Heavenly Immortal Casino had a daily income that ranged from hundreds of millions to billions of alliance dollars. If rumor of the trouble Di Jiu had stirred up spread, the casino’s reputation would be tarnished. There was no question that the rumor would spread. Countless people had witnessed the scene, so it was impossible that the rumor would not spread.

Unless one was addicted to gambling, they would not visit the casino again after that incident.

They had also asked Di Jiu for compensation regardless of his background so that they could force him to return the money he had won and appease their hatred for him. Why bother holding back? They would simply let Di Jiu compensate them with a large sum and break his arm.

Breaking his arm was just a false pretense. Their true intention was to kill him. Once he returned the money, they would use that as an excuse to murder him.

Di Jiu laughed angrily and pointed to the sea outside. “Jump on your own, or I’ll help you down.”

“How brave!” Qian Qijiang snorted and moved his hand slightly, shooting a white light directly at Di Jiu.

Di Jiu’s spiritual power instantly captured the trajectory of the white light. This light was not meant to take his life. Instead, it had been shot directly at his ears.

Di Jiu reached out and pinched the white light with his hand.

It was a very small flying dagger. Its blade was full of irregular bumps that were used to steer its flying force during flight. Di Jiu pinched the flying dagger in his hand and felt the change of the power control within it. This kind of power change could not be achieved before reaching a certain skill level. It suddenly became evident that this guy was even more powerful than Trustworthy. Di Jiu was certain that Trustworthy would not be able to pull such a difficult move.

If he had not grabbed onto the flying dagger by its small handle, it would have cut off one of his ears, turned 360 degrees in the air, and then flown back around to cut off his other ear.

It seemed like this guy wanted to remove both his ears and then force him to hand over all his money.

“Watch this…” Qian Qijiang said before he stopped abruptly.

He had initially planned on cutting off Di Jiu’s ears in secret and then dangling the flying dagger in front of him to hint that it had accidentally cut off his ears because of his disobedience. He hoped that their next chat would be more enjoyable, so it would be best not to let the knife in his hand ‘accidentally’ miss.

However, he had only said three words, when he saw clearly Di Jiu’s two fingers pinch his flying dagger.

How could this be?

His maneuvering dagger had been designed by the world’s best mechanical design masters. Plus, there were really high requirements one needed to meet in order to qualify to use a flying dagger. He had been trained from the early stages of the Earth Tier so he could control his flying dagger.

In other words, no one could get hold of his maneuvering dagger, not because of its immense strength, but because the power inside it was constantly changing. Whoever dared grab his maneuvering dagger would immediately cause a number of changes that would result in the irregular rotation cutting off the hand of the person who had grabbed it.

However, the impossible had actually become possible. That young man had caught his flying dagger.

Qian Qijiang had been roaming rivers and lakes for decades, yet he had never met such a powerful person before.

“You dared grab my maneuvering dagger?” Although Qian Qijiang had eventually recomposed himself, he still could not believe his eyes.

“You mean you thought that I wouldn’t be able to touch your flying dagger, so you would use it to cut off my ears and make me take out my bank card, right?” Di Jiu sneered.

“No…” Qian Qijiang said before Di Jiu threw the maneuvering dagger in his hand back at him. The flying dagger penetrated Qian Qijiang’s knee, causing blood to spurt out.

It was a pity that Di Jiu did not know Qian Qijiang’s trick. If he knew it, then he would definitely have used the maneuvering dagger to cut off Qian Qijiang’s ears and knees.

Qian Qijiang’s move was mind-blowing. However, Qian Qijiang fell to the ground immediately, terrified to his very core.

Given his ability, it would have been possible for him to escape Di Jiu’s attack. Unfortunately, he had been stunned when Di Jiu had grabbed his flying dagger. His maneuvering dagger had been with him for nearly two decades, and no one had ever been able to grab it like Di Jiu just had. He had always thought that one could avoid the maneuvering dagger or block it, but not grab it.

As his belief was shattered, he started to wonder whether his dagger was just a standard, regular knife.

“Please stop, pal!” Qian Qijiang shouted quickly.

Feng Qi was so flustered that he stepped back. Di Jiu took a look at Feng Qi and said, “If you cut off your left arm and jump into the sea, I will not pursue you into the water to kill you.”

To Di Jiu’s surprise, Feng Qi did not hesitate. He immediately took a short knife out of his clothes and cut off his arm without hesitation. When his arm fell to the ground, he dropped the knife and hit a few acupuncture points on his shoulder. Then, he took some medicine out of his pocket, swallowed it, uttered a thank you, turned around quickly, rushed out of Di Jiu’s room and jumped into the sea.

Although Feng Qi was only half Qian Qijiang’s age, he had taken too many lives with his bare hands, so he must have sensed that Di Jiu wanted to kill him. Even though this had not bothered him before, when he saw Di Jiu easily restrain Qian Qijiang, he realized that he could really kill him.

However, Di Jiu had actually given him a chance to live. If he did not grab this opportunity, then he would not live to see another day.

“That guy is really courageous,” Di Jiu said in surprise. Then, he raised his foot and kicked Feng Qi’s arm out of the door and directly into the sea.

He had actually planned on killing Feng Qi. If Feng Qi had hesitated, he would have killed him first and then killed Qian Qijiang. His offer to allow Feng Qi to lose an arm and jump into the sea, thus giving him a chance to live, had been spontaneous.

“I will also jump into the sea…” Qian Qijiang said hurriedly.

Although he could still fight Di Jiu, his courage was unfortunately waning, so he simply did not dare.

How could Di Jiu let Qian Qijiang go again? This guy had been about to kill him. He wanted to torture him before killing him, so sparing him that torture would be a kind enough act on his part. Letting him go would be too kind.

Di Jiu kicked Qian Qijiang out and took a step forward. Then, he used his toes to kick the short knife Feng Qi had just dropped.

The knife, which seemed to have eyes, pierced Qian Qijiang’s head from the back and fell into the sea along with him.
