Chapter 1498: Chapter 1498

"In that case, there’s nothing more to say."

Tang Ming sighed and looked at the mysterious couple. "Thank you for betting on me to win, but I’m afraid it’s going to be hard to get the money today. You two should go to my friend’s place for safety."

"Thank you for your kind offer, but you don’t need to worry about us."

The athletic young man gave a faint smile, oozing confidence in his tone.

Tang Ming nodded, realizing that someone who could bet a billion in one go wasn’t just anyone.

"You brat, do you think I don’t exist? Seems like you’re not planning to leave peacefully. In that case, don’t blame me for being rude."

Zhao Tianhao shouted angrily, brimming with murderous intent, "Brothers, get him! Kill the men and keep the women for fun."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of thugs sprang into action, surrounding the ring as eight masters charged at Tang Ming.

"Those not afraid of death, come on up."

Tang Ming squinted his eyes and gently stomped his foot. The eight martial masters who had just jumped onto the ring immediately lost their balance and fell to the ground, unable to get up.

"Damn, I thought they were some kind of experts. They can’t even get on the ring properly. How pathetic!"

Tang Ming mocked with a look of disbelief.

"Hey, what are you all doing? Get up and finish him off."

Zhao Tianhao cursed with a dark expression, only to find the eight martial masters unconscious, unresponsive.

"Boss, there’s something strange about this kid."

Can Yingyi’s expression turned serious. He originally thought Tang Ming defeating a hundred people was just a fluke, but now it seemed he truly had strength.

"Then you handle him personally and I’ll give you a billion."

Zhao Tianhao shouted through clenched teeth.

No sooner had he spoken than Can Yingyi leaped towards the ring.

Tang Ming shrugged and jumped towards Can Yingyi, delivering a palm strike mid-air.

In mid-air, Can Yingyi spat out a mouthful of blood and landed on the ground, unable to rise.

"Boss, run quickly, this guy knows the Poisonous Evil Palm."

Lying on the ground, Can Yingyi cried out in pain. He hadn’t felt Tang Ming’s strength, yet his chest felt like it was being pierced by a thousand insects, draining all his energy.

Tang Ming landed on the ground, glancing at Can Yingyi. "I’m not just a Cross Training Nine-star Martial Artist, but I also specialize in the Poisonous Evil Palm. You martial masters without Gang Qi confronting me is suicide."

"I see, I was careless."

Can Yingyi mumbled before passing out.

"Zhao boss, is it your turn now?"

Tang Ming smiled warmly as he approached Zhao Tianhao.

"You, don’t come over here."

Zhao Tianhao swallowed hard, not expecting this outcome. "Someone, anyone, kill him and I’ll reward you with a billion... Where is everyone?"

Halfway through his speech, Zhao Tianhao turned to find all his men were down, lying beside Chen Cang and the mysterious couple—dozens of them!

"You thought my grannies were easy to bully?"

Chen Cang stood on a chair, arrogantly shouting. "This kind of trash, even if there were a few hundred more, I could knock them down."

Zhao Tianhao was utterly dumbfounded, not expecting such an outcome.

"Hey, brother, let’s talk this over. We can negotiate everything."

Zhao Tianhao swallowed, quickly trying to appease Tang Ming.

"Oh my, weren’t you very arrogant before?"

Tang Ming looked at Zhao Tianhao disdainfully. "Do I still need to pay you or not?"

"No, no, with your strength, killing the hundred people is their luck."

Zhao Tianhao quickly wiped his sweat, looking at Tang Ming ingratiatingly.

"Hmph! In that case, what about the money we won?"

Tang Ming coldly snorted, slowly raising his hand.

"Here, whatever you’ve won, I’ll give it all."

Seeing Tang Ming’s hand that had knocked out a Four-star Martial Master, Zhao Tianhao decisively shouted.

"Pay up, once we receive the money, we’ll leave. Otherwise, it won’t be pretty for you today."

Tang Ming nodded in satisfaction.

"Alright, alright, I’ll immediately have the finance manager transfer you the money."

Zhao Tianhao wiped his cold sweat again, pulling out his phone to make the settlement.

Several minutes later, Liu Mengting and others cheered as the money was transferred.

"Sonny, in business, honesty is paramount, and promises must be kept."

Tang Ming glanced at Zhao Tianba. "Let’s call it a day, as long as we’ve won the money. Do you have any complaints?"

Zhao Tianhao replied tearfully; in this situation, how dare he have complaints?

Tang Ming chuckled coldly, gesturing for Hua Yingjie and others to head out of the venue.

The mysterious couple followed, leaving behind a group of injured and a nearly-panicked Zhao Tianhao.

"I’m done for, it’s all over."

Zhao Tianhao slumped to the ground. Those billions were meant to attract customers’ bets at the arena, but he lost it all today. The higher-ups definitely wouldn’t let him off.

"I must explain beforehand, or Brother Fork will have me turned into mincemeat!"

A moment later, Zhao Tianhao got up, running out with his phone, ignoring the people inside the venue.

Tang Ming and the others happily walked out, having won a substantial amount, planning to find a place for a good late-night snack.

As Tang Ming and his friends chatted and left, the young couple suddenly caught up with them.

Tang Ming, with an arm around Su Xiaoxi’s slim waist, looked curiously at the couple.

"Thanks to you, we won five billion, so we must thank you."

The athletic young man politely greeted.

The girl, meanwhile, was sizing up Su Xiaoxi and Liu Mengting, feeling a lack of confidence in her own looks next to these beauties.

"Do you need anything else?"

Watching the couple approach, Tang Ming asked again.

"Don’t worry, we mean no harm."

The athletic young man flashed a sunny smile and took off his sunglasses.

The boy had thick eyebrows, large eyes, fair skin, and a warm smile, giving off the feeling of a boy-next-door.

Seeing the boy’s face clearly, Li Xiaoli couldn’t help but exclaim.

Seeing Li Xiaoli fawn, Liu Mengting quickly coughed to remind her to watch her demeanor.

"My name is Du Kai! We won a few billion because of you, so it’s only fitting we thank you."

Du Kai laughed, looking at Tang Ming. "May I know your names, perhaps we could be friends."

Li Xiaoli nodded eagerly.

Tang Ming glared at Li Xiaoli, then turned to Du Kai. "As for making friends, let’s not. Betting on me shows you have a good eye. Winning is your due, no need to thank us."
