Chapter 441: Chapter 441: Sky Strategy Clan! (4 more updates)

"Young Master Ling, teach me gambling skills!" Tuoba Cheng stared at Ling Feng with an earnest look in his eyes, as sincere as if he really wanted to become his apprentice.

"Uh..." Ling Feng was stunned for a moment. He didn’t know a thing about gambling skills; he was just cheating with the help of Zi Feng.

However, he couldn’t just spill the beans on that, or else this Tuoba Cheng might be enraged, leading to an inevitable fierce fight.

Although Ling Feng wasn’t exactly afraid of this guy, there was no point in engaging in a meaningless battle, especially considering that Tuoba Cheng seemed quite interesting to him.

"Ahem..." Ling Feng shook his head and chuckled bitterly, "Your gambling skills are already very formidable. In fact, I can’t really teach you anything."

"No, no one has ever made me slip up before, but you were able to disrupt my judgment, causing me to roll six ones. It must be an incredibly clever technique, one that even I couldn’t see through!" Tuoba Cheng said with absolute certainty, "Therefore, I want to learn your gambling skills, to have a chance at breaking through my current level."

"Furthermore, gambling skills are just one part. To tell you the truth, the reason I came from Wangduan Mountain to Sky White Imperial City was to find the prophesied one, and that is you."

"The prophesied one?" Ling Feng’s mouth twitched, as Tuoba Cheng’s words became more and more mysterious.

Also, what was Wangduan Mountain?

But just because Ling Feng hadn’t heard of it didn’t mean others hadn’t. Lin Moyao was clearly startled by the three words "Wangduan Mountain" and exclaimed, "You... you are a member of the Sky Strategy Clan?"

"Oh? This young lady has heard of the Sky Strategy Clan?" Now it was Tuoba Cheng’s turn to be surprised. The Sky Strategy Clan seldom interacted with the outer world and was rarely known.

Lin Moyao took a deep breath and nodded, "I once joined a Demon Hunting Team to hunt demons in the various great forests within the Empire. When we went to the Star Gorge Cave in the Western Wasteland, I heard rumors about the Sky Strategy clansmen of Wangduan Mountain."

"The Sky Strategy people are adept at the Heavenly Mechanism Calculation Technique and can foresee the past and the future. Legend has it that the most powerful Divine Skill of the Sky Strategy Clan is called the Great Prophecy Technique. The practitioner can determine the fate of the heavens and earth with a single word and turn Qiankun upside down; it is incredibly powerful!"

"Hehe, it seems you’re young but have been to quite a few places," Tuoba Cheng chuckled, his eyebrows dancing, then immediately his tone turned somber, "However, legends are just legends, and the current Sky Strategy Clan is no longer as glorious as it once was. Otherwise, why hide away in Wangduan Mountain, away from the mundane world?"

"All this is because our clan’s supreme scripture, ’Thirteen Heavenly Strategies’, was sealed inside the Emperor Tomb. If we could retrieve the supreme scripture, maybe someone could revive the legendary Great Prophecy Technique of yore."

As Tuoba Cheng spoke, his gaze fixated on Ling Feng, and he said excitedly, "And the key to unlocking the Emperor Tomb is you, the prophesied one!"

"Me?" Ling Feng chuckled bitterly, "How did I become the prophesied one?"

"Because you beat me in gambling! When I left Wangduan Mountain, the Great Elder divined for me once. He said I would find the prophesied one in Sky White Imperial City, and that person would be able to beat me in gambling!"

Tuoba Cheng said with some excitement, "To tell the truth, I have been in the Imperial City for a whole three years. These three years... they have made me search so hard!"

"Just on that basis?" Ling Feng shook his head and chuckled bitterly, "Isn’t that a bit too hasty, Master Tuoba?"

"Not hasty at all, not in the slightest!"

Tuoba Cheng looked at Ling Feng urgently, "Just now, I tried to predict your future with the Heavenly Pendant Mysterious Technique our Sky Strategy clansmen cultivate, but I found that your destiny is obscured. I can’t make out even a half-star detail, which means you are definitely no ordinary person and very likely to be the one to unlock the Emperor Tomb, the prophesied person!"

"It’s difficult for me to digest all of this at once."

Ling Feng took a deep breath. The world is so vast, there’s no shortage of wonders. If he himself could travel back a thousand years through the Xuanwu Wall and bring back the Xuanwu Treasure Blood, then these so-called Sky Strategy clansmen might indeed possess the ability to predict the future.

Particularly, what he mentioned about the Emperor Tomb had filled Ling Feng with curiosity.

The Emperor Tomb, as the name implies, was the tomb of a Great Emperor.

Because of his connection with Yan Cangtian, Ling Feng had come to know that Martial Artists in the Divine Sea Realm could be referred to as King-level Experts, while those in the Creation Realm were known as Human Emperors, and only above the Creation Realm lay the level of Great Emperor.

The tomb of a Great Emperor would definitely contain unimaginable opportunities, especially since it was the tomb of a Great Emperor from the Sky Strategy Clan.

Stepping back from it all, if the people of the Sky Strategy Clan could indeed calculate the Heavenly Mechanism, couldn’t he ask one of their masters to divine for him? Perhaps he could find some information about his own origins?

Thinking of this, Ling Feng’s heart ignited with eagerness as he looked towards Tuoba Cheng and slowly said, "If what you say is true, then I indeed may be the prophesied person who can help you unlock the Emperor Tomb, but right now, I don’t have the time to go to your Wangduan Mountain."

"Rest assured, rest assured, I’ve already waited for three years, so even if I have to wait another three years, I won’t be in a rush. After all, I’ve found the person," Tuoba Cheng said with a smile.

"Also, the Great Elder you mentioned just now, how good is his skill in calculating the Heavenly Mechanism, compared to you?"

"My skill can only be considered third-rate on Wangduan Mountain. The Great Elder’s skill, of course, is more than a hundred times stronger than mine."

As Tuoba Cheng spoke, he vigorously rubbed his face and, astonishingly, peeled off a human skin mask, grinning as he said, "Actually, I’m only twenty-two years old this year. Wearing a more mature face makes it easier to handle matters, hehe..."

Ling Feng’s eyelids twitched, no wonder this ’Master Tuoba’ didn’t possess the steadiness of a middle-aged person—it was all a disguise!

And this guy was just in his early twenties, yet already so proficient in cultivation. The Sky Strategy Clan was truly mysterious!

"I, Tuoba Cheng, don’t have any other hobbies; I just refuse to admit defeat in gambling skills to anyone. Since you managed to defeat me, please take me as your disciple! Master, accept my bow!" Tuoba Cheng said, and then really knelt down in front of Ling Feng, kowtowing three times with nine bows and even knocking his forehead red upon looking up.

Ling Feng was speechless, it seemed this guy was determined to latch onto him.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Ling Feng helped Tuoba Cheng up and said gravely, "I truly have nothing to teach you, and as for the matter of opening the Emperor Tomb, I will consider it carefully."

"Master, I have now left Sun Tianba and have no place to call home anymore. You are my master, so you wouldn’t abandon me, would you?" Tuoba Cheng ingratiatingly moved closer, grinning.

"Darn it!" Ling Feng cursed quietly to himself; this guy’s intention to become a disciple was clearly just to stick by him!

"Don’t call me master. I never agreed to take you as a disciple!" Ling Feng rolled his eyes, then glanced at the Lin sisters, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. He smiled lightly and said, "Since you’ve left Sun Tianba, you might as well stay at the Lin Family’s Casino for the time being. Staying here to help Lady Lin could be seen as atoning for your previous actions, how about that?"

"If I stay to help Lady Lin, then will you accept me as your disciple?" Tuoba Cheng asked eagerly.

Ling Feng pursed his lips and offhandedly said, "That will depend on your performance."

"Good, I agree!" Tuoba Cheng immediately accepted the offer.

"Lady Lin, I took the liberty of deciding this, but I wonder if you would be willing to take in Tuoba Cheng?" Ling Feng turned his head towards Lin Moyao and asked.

"Master Tuoba’s gambling skills are extraordinary, naturally, I am more than happy to welcome him."

Why would Lin Moyun disagree? She was thrilled in her heart, never expecting that tonight’s misfortune would turn into good fortune. With an expert like Tuoba Cheng controlling the casino, there was no need to worry about the Tyrant Association’s people causing trouble in the future!
