Volume 1 The Beginning of Chaos Chapter 175 The odds are sluggish
Mu Bai was not surprised by Yun Lan's choice, the intelligence network of the Paradise Pavilion was very developed, and it was not difficult to find Yun Lan's details under careful investigation, but this was not important, as long as Yun Lan himself did not take the initiative to mention the identity of the administrator, Mu Bai would also pretend to know nothing.
Bliss Pavilion is indeed reluctant to meet with an official institution like the Immortal Demon Administration, even if there is the secret support of many forces, it cannot hide the gray nature of Bliss Pavilion, once the two sides come and go too closely, it is inevitable that conflicts and frictions will occur, so the consequences caused by Bliss Pavilion are not something that Bliss Pavilion can bear!
As the so-called out of sight and out of mind, the Immortal Demon Administration does feel a little jealous of the Paradise Pavilion, but it is not that it does not have the ability and idea to destroy the Paradise Pavilion, but after weighing the pros and cons, it feels that there is no need for this for the time being, after all, it is also an institution under the Heavenly Court, and the Face Immortal Demon Administration of the Four Seas Dragon Palace still needs to give a little.
Because of this, as long as this layer of film on the bright side is not pierced, the Paradise Pavilion is still very friendly to the administrator of the Immortal Demon Administration, provided that there is no work contact, only simple buying and selling.
The duel was quickly arranged, the efficiency of the Paradise Pavilion was extremely high, and within three days, the duel would be carried out smoothly, and Yun Lan was also left behind, concentrating on preparing for the battle!
Yun Lan was quite disdainful of this reason, thinking about his identity and the grudge between the two parties, the other party already knew it, and the reason why he forcibly kept Yun Lan should also be to avoid extraneous branches, otherwise he would not be so eager to arrange a duel!
You must know that this level of life-and-death duel is not so easy to see, and if you don't publicize it as much as possible, how can it be in line with the interests of the Elysium Pavilion?
However, Yun Lan did not refuse, she did need some preparation time before the duel began, after all, this trip was not to kill people, if she couldn't seize this opportunity to prove her innocence, even if she won this life-and-death duel, at most she could only make up for it, although she could also slightly clear her guilt, but it was not a good choice for Yun Lan!
In addition, the means to enhance strength also need to be prepared, the generous gift promised by Mu Bai on behalf of the Paradise Pavilion has been sent, and there is also an elixir that can greatly increase the strength in a short period of time, but because the side effects are too great, unless it is forced to the point of last resort, Yun Lan does not plan to use it.
From this point of view, the Pavilion of Paradise can really be called wealthy, and the reward is paid in full in advance before the duel begins, and there is no worry that Yun Lan will suddenly regret it, this bearing alone is worthy of praise!
Of course, in the final analysis, this kind of thing depends on strength, with the support of the Four Seas Dragon Palace behind it, the clouded leopard clan behind Yun Lan is really a little worthless in front of the Paradise Pavilion!
As for the identity of the administrator, from the moment Yun Lan agreed to participate in the duel of life and death, it had completely lost its effect, unless Yun Lan did not plan to gain a foothold in the two realms of immortals and demons from now on, otherwise there was no room for turning around in this matter!
The reward sent by Mu Bai can be regarded as solving Yun Lan's urgent need, through the black market intermediary of the Paradise Pavilion, Yun Lan quickly changed to what she needed, although the handling fee is a little scary, but this kind of unwarranted benefit, even if it is spent, Yun Lan does not feel distressed.
Three days have passed in a blink of an eye, and Yun Lan has completely lost contact with the outside world, but she has not shown the slightest nervousness, but has faintly begun to look forward to it.
There are more and more people coming to the Pavilion of Paradise, and not only people from the fairy and demon worlds, but even some wealthy businessmen who are familiar with the news have also come here, obviously for this life-and-death duel!
Yun Lan's original purpose of joining the Immortal Demon Administration was to make a name for herself, and although there were some twists and turns in the process, this original intention never changed.
The clouded leopard clan has gradually declined, although I don't want to admit this, but Yun Lan is also very clear that among today's demon clans, there is no longer a legend about the clouded leopard clan, and if you want to reproduce the glory of the clan, you can only rely on your own punches and kicks to fight hard, this time the duel of life and death may be an excellent opportunity.
"How's the preparation going?"
Mu Bai was still dressed in green clothes, and even the smile on his face was the same as when Yun Lan first saw him, but there was a faint eagerness in his words.
"Thank you seniors for your concern, the preparations are ready, and the rest can only be left to fate!"
Yun Lan's answer was very modest, and he didn't reveal his true thoughts, the Paradise Pavilion had already set up a gambling plate before the duel officially began, and before the other party explained his intentions, Yun Lan didn't plan to relax his guard against Mu Bai's visit!
"Don't be so nervous, the attitude of the Pavilion of Paradise is always neutral, and there will never be any bias between the two sides of the duel, since you don't want to mention this topic, then just talk about other topics!"
Mu Bai's status in the Paradise Pavilion is not low, this is also something that Yun Lan has inadvertently noticed in recent days, no matter where the Demon Emperor level figure is placed, he is a well-deserved master, and there is absolutely no reason to welcome guests in person, so it will inevitably make Yun Lan feel a little jealous of Mu Bai.
"The duel is about to start, and there should be no shortage of things that seniors need to be busy with, how can they have the leisure to come and chat with me?"
Yun Lan was a little confused about Mu Bai's attitude, so naturally she would not relax her vigilance because of the other party's words, but she didn't stretch out her hand and didn't hit the smiling person, and Yun Lan couldn't directly put on the attitude of sending off the guest, so she could only take the other party's words and ask rhetorically.
"As you said before, everything that should be prepared has been prepared, and the rest of the things are left to the people below to do, and if you have nothing to do, you have to wander around, and if it disturbs you, please say it's okay!"
Mu Bai's attitude was very friendly, it seemed that he was really just hanging out here as he said, seeing that Yun Lan's attitude was a little resistant, he even bluntly said that he would break it, and he had the consciousness that as long as Yun Lan opened his mouth, he would immediately turn around and leave.
Speaking of which, Yun Lan didn't have much to say, so she had to ask Mu Bai to sit down, and there was a tower that didn't have a conversation about what she had seen and heard after coming to the Paradise Pavilion.
I have to say that Mu Bai's personality charm is excellent, and between the words, Yun Lan relaxed her vigilance slightly, and when she came back to her senses, the two were already talking happily, and this unprecedented feeling suddenly shocked Yun Lan's heart.
"It's not a simple errand to write in front of the palace, but don't be so surprised, the temper of the dragon lord is not small, if I don't have this ability, I guess I won't be able to live so long!"
Mu Bai's eyes were so vicious, he could see Yun Lan's thoughts at a glance, and a funny joke suddenly brushed aside the atmosphere that had begun to become slightly embarrassing, showing a deep foundation in life.
Yun Lan could see that Mu Bai's identity was by no means simple, otherwise she would not dare to speak like this in front of people, but she was always a little confused about the other party's intentions, was it really just to chat with her?
Seeing through it or not saying it, since the other party chose to hide it, Yun Lan was also happy to pretend to be stupid, anyway, she had nothing to do, it was better to take this opportunity to ask more about the Paradise Pavilion from the other party, and it would be difficult for the other party to refuse, right?
Yun Lan's careful thinking is not hidden, or Yun Lan herself has no intention of deliberately hiding, so Mu Bai can see it at a glance, but for some reason, Mu Bai did not break this point, but answered Yun Lan's questions and answered everything, fully playing the duty of an explanation.
After some small talk, Yun Lan gained a lot, but because of this, she became more confused! Why did Mu Bai come this time, he always felt a little strange to confide in the matter of the Paradise Pavilion without any scruples, could it be that the other party didn't care about his identity as an administrator at all?
Before leaving, Mu Bai finally said something that didn't sound like idle talk, but it also made Yun Lan's face change suddenly!
"The odds of a life-and-death duel this time are very different, and there are not many people who are optimistic about you, I hope you don't let me down!"
It seems to be an ordinary sentence, but Yun Lan heard a lot of extraneous meanings from it!
Through chatting with Mu Bai, Yun Lan also had a comprehensive understanding of the arena duel in the Paradise Pavilion, which naturally included off-court gambling.
Relying on the Four Seas Dragon Palace behind it, the reputation of the Paradise Pavilion is naturally excellent, and ordinary people will never dare to play tricks in this regard, otherwise once the collusion and gambling are discovered, the end is definitely not miserable!
Because of this, the odds of the off-the-counter gambling set up by Paradise Pavilion are also very realistic, and there is rarely a huge difference between the strength gap between the warring sides and the odds ratio, which has always been an important basis for off-court audiences to refer to the strength of both sides.
As a participant in this duel, Yun Lan is not qualified to participate in the gambling game, even if she entrusts others to bet for herself, once she is discovered by the Paradise Pavilion, she will pay the corresponding price for it, so Yun Lan has not paid attention to the odds from beginning to end.
Now it seems that Yun Lan is a little negligent, relying on his powerful intelligence ability, the strength of the two sides of the duel is not said to be well known, at least it is also a matter of understanding one or two, since the odds given are very different, it means that the Paradise Pavilion is not optimistic about Yun Lan.
You must know that before this, Mu Bai was also entrusted by the Paradise Pavilion to send Yun Lan an elixir that greatly improved his strength in a short period of time, but even so, it did not change the odds at all, is the difference in strength between the two sides really so big?
Yun Lan didn't think so, judging from the previous contact, the other party really didn't have anything special to do except for the large number of people, the bloodthirsty madness seemed to be powerful, but in fact, it had already exposed the strength of the mole demons at the level of the demon generals, and without the hole cards in hand, it was only a matter of time before Yun Lan dealt with them!
Could it be that the problem lies with the two demon king-level mole demons? This can be explained, after all, judging from the previous battle process, the other party always has spare strength, if it weren't for the reinforcements sent by the Ancheng Branch, maybe Yun Lan would really die on the spot.
However, this time is different from the past, because of Canaan before, Yun Lan still had a lot of methods that he couldn't use, and these methods that had never been exposed to people were by no means something that the Paradise Pavilion could inquire about, maybe this was the reason for the huge difference in odds, and it was also the purpose of Mu Bai to come and remind him.
From the perspective of the Bliss Pavilion, a fierce battle of equal strength is more in line with the current interests, if the situation is too one-sided, Yun Lan's value will also be greatly reduced, otherwise he will not give the elixir first and then give good words, this kind of move is already a bit out of line to a certain extent, no wonder Mu Bai's performance seems to be a little slurred.
As for the defenseless questions and answers, most of them are because they are not optimistic about themselves! The duel between life and death is endless, for a dead person, no matter how much he knows, it is meaningless, not to mention that Mu Bai does not say everything, it is still a little measured!
