This Martial Saint’s Health Bar is Too Thick!

Chapter 69: Chapter 69: Wolf Pack

“Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!”

In a private room, Wang Bearded Man’s lackey howled like a banshee.

“What the hell are you screeching about?”

Wang Bearded Man slapped the lackey on the head.

“It’s just… too unexpected, isn’t it? To actually see Tiger Swallowing Dragon, especially in this way.”

The lackey chuckled sheepishly, his lips trying to curl into a smirk despite his best efforts to suppress it.

“Damn it, that Green-faced Ghost must be a formal Martial Artist. Before now, he had no reputation at all. How could someone like him be found by Liu Huahua? How can that bitch’s luck be so good?”

Wang Bearded Man cursed furiously, “It’s made me lose five hundred!”

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, and suddenly he turned to his lackey and asked,

“When you were watching the betting station today, did you see any of the ‘Wolf Pack’ guys?”

The lackey was startled and thought back carefully to the scene at the betting booth earlier, then said,

“It seemed like there were, they almost have someone there every day.”

“That’s good; maybe this kid won’t live through the night!”

Wang Bearded Man watched Li Fei cruelly, who just won the match below.

“Brother Beard, are you saying the Wolf Pack will go after this Green-faced Ghost?”

The lackey was taken aback, “But this Green-faced Ghost even beat Ling Yong; would the Wolf Pack dare?”

“You know shit!”

Wang Bearded Man cursed, “If it weren’t for Steel Bear and Black Blade creating opportunities for him, this Green-faced Ghost would have been killed by Ling Yong already! Besides, killing someone isn’t a competition on the ring; there are plenty of ways to do it. This Green-faced Ghost has won tens of thousands in a huge prize tonight; those Wolf bastards can’t possibly not be tempted.”

Hearing this, the lackey glanced down at Li Fei, feeling somewhat regretful.

In another private room, Zhou Yuan sat on the sofa with a pallid face, looking no different from any gambler who had lost a bet.

Although twenty thousand wasn’t enough to bankrupt him, it was a significant blow nonetheless.

“Zhou Brother, don’t be like this.”

Zhang Mingze sat down next to him, “If there’s a need for money, I can help.”

Zhou Yuan’s eyes lit up as he looked at Zhang Mingze, “Really?”

“Of course. How could I not help when Zhou Brother is in trouble?”

Zhang Mingze smiled warmly.

Zhou Yuan’s heart sank instead.

He knew there were no free lunches in this world, especially from someone like Zhang Mingze. Any favor given now would have to be repaid double in the future!

But he was tight on funds recently and really didn’t want to ask his uncle for money.

“I…”

“Haha, Brother Zhou, why be so formal between us.”

“…”

A few minutes later, Zhang Mingze escorted a preoccupied Zhou Yuan out of the private room.

Then he called over one of his men, “Go find that Green-faced Ghost who just won the match; tell him Master Zhang of the Tiger Saber Gang invites him.”

“Yes.”

The subordinate went off on his mission.

Zhang Mingze went back into the private room and sat on the sofa, waiting in silence.

His eyes were deep, pondering unknown thoughts.

Ten minutes later, the door to the private room was opened, and the subordinate led Li Fei, who had donned a new Evil Ghost Mask, inside.

When Li Fei heard that Master Zhang of the Tiger Saber Gang wanted to see him, he hardly hesitated before agreeing.

If he could connect with the Tiger Saber Gang under the guise of ‘Green-faced Ghost,’ it might be a smart move, especially since he had the identity of a secret inspector.

“Haha, thank you for the honor, please have a seat.”

Zhang Mingze stood up and greeted Li Fei with a smile as he entered, then had all his men leave, leaving only himself and Li Fei alone in the private room.

“Master Zhang wanted to see me?”

Li Fei sat down and asked in a deep voice.

Zhang Mingze looked at Li Fei with a smile and sized him up before speaking,

“I see that you have extraordinary skills, and therefore I’ve specifically invited you to have a chat because our Gang Leader loves to make friends with heroes and people of valor.”

Li Fei pondered for a moment and nodded, “I have also heard of Deputy Gang Leader Yu’s reputation.”

Zhang Mingze watched him, “Did you come to Qingyuan Fist Village to seek wealth?”

“Of course.”

“If I’m not mistaken, you must already be a formal Martial Artist at the Body Breaking Stage, and at least at the Body Breaking Middle Stage of cultivation, right?”

“Yes.”

“With such skills, you could find a good job anywhere, yet you choose to hide your identity and come here to seek wealth, which suggests there must be compelling reasons.”

Zhang Mingze didn’t ask about Li Fei’s identity or his background, he just mentioned Li Fei’s predicament.

“What does Master Zhang want to say?”

Li Fei neither admitted nor denied, instead he asked in return.

“I mean to say, our Tiger Saber Gang would very much like to be friends with someone like you, and perhaps there will be an opportunity to make money together in the future, I wonder if you would be interested?”

“Oh? We have never met before, and you all don’t even know my background, yet you’re willing to include me in making money?”

“Ha ha ha, heroes don’t concern themselves with origins, as long as you have the ability and can contribute, of course we can make money together,” Zhang Mingze laughed.

Li Fei fell silent for a while before he said slowly,

“Alright, I might give it a try if there’s a chance.”

Zhang Mingze clapped his hands, “That’s settled, leave a way to contact you, and when the time is right, I’ll have someone get in touch with you.”

“When the time comes, just look for Liu San, he’s my agent,” Li Fei said.

Since the other party did not reveal everything, he could not ask too many questions and would have to play it by ear when the time came.

After speaking, he nodded to Zhang Mingze and then got up to leave the private room.

After Li Fei left, Zhang Mingze called over a subordinate,

“Send a few smart ones to follow him and find out where he’s staying.”

…

Li Fei arrived at the betting area where he had placed his bet earlier, and Sister Hua along with Liu San had already been waiting there, with many onlookers around.

“You’ve finally arrived, aren’t you eager to collect your money?”

Sister Hua looked at Li Fei with a seductive gaze and said with a smile.

He had made a fortune tonight and was in a very good mood, hence Li Fei looked even more pleasing to the eye.

Li Fei did not respond to her and went straight to the betting counter, handing over his previous betting slip.

The person at the counter took the slip and looked at Li Fei with envy,

“Congratulations, you’ve made a fortune this time.”

Li Fei had bet six thousand yuan, the odds were 7.8, and he ended up with forty-six thousand eight hundred yuan in hand!

Compared to that, the bonus from the Dragon and Tiger Fight seemed trivial, not even amounting to the loose change from this sum.

This amount of money could basically ensure a worry-free life for a regular family for the rest of their lives.

The man at the counter quickly stacked bundle after bundle of banknotes on the table, counted them in front of Li Fei, and then handed them over.

These banknotes were all in the largest denomination of thirty yuan, one hundred notes to a stack, and there were more than ten stacks in total.

The people around saw so much money, their eyes turned green with envy, and their breathing grew heavier.

Li Fei remained relatively composed; he took out a cloth bag he had prepared in advance, stuffed all the banknotes into it, and then tied the bag around his waist.

“Brother, now that you have this money, do you still plan to fight in boxing matches?”

Sister Hua suddenly asked.

Liu San also looked at Li Fei with anxious anticipation.

“Of course.”

Li Fei replied without hesitation.

“Then if there’s another opportunity to make money like this in the future, I promise to let you know first,” Sister Hua gave Li Fei a flirty wink, then she looked around, moved closer to Li Fei, and whispered,

“With all the money you’ve earned tonight, be careful of being targeted by the wolves!”
