C26 Gambler

Lee Xiang suddenly changed the topic from porridge to the racial problem that everyone on this continent was talking about. This really shocked the few people on the scene. Even Reynolds secretly broke out in a cold sweat for him, because what he said just now was a huge taboo in front of these people. He knew that this kid was gambling again. Although he didn't agree with his way of gambling with his own destiny, However, he had to admit that if he were to stand in his current position, he would have no choice but to do so. However, this was a bit risky. He knew that his previous words might have misled this kid. Otherwise, with his intelligence, he wouldn't be so unwise.

This might be the mentality of a gambler. When they finally realized that they had nothing at the end of the bet, their eagerness to make a comeback would make them bet their lives on the risk of winning! And when they had a certain amount of capital in their hands, they would take one step at a time to secure victory!

Lee Xiang's current mentality was that of a gambler! Because he really did not have anything to gamble with. With his current situation, there was no other way besides this. In front of him was a dangerous mountain, and behind him was a hundred thousand zhang cliff. Other than crossing over, he had no other choice, or else there would be no bones left. This was definitely not sensational news.

"The white people can oppress those lowlifes, they can bully those lowlifes. They can even kill those lowlifes as they wish. . . But can they kill all of them? History has already given the answer! Reality has proven that wherever there is oppression, there will be resistance! It is not their inborn cheap lives. In fact, in this world, no one was born with a cheap life, no one was born to like being abused. Being discriminated against. . . But this kind of oppression has yet to reach the limit that they can endure! Once this kind of oppression reaches a critical point, I think that it is still unknown who will be the ruler of this world in the future. . . "

Reynolds's brows tightly knitted together. Even if he heard it, Lee Xiang's words were becoming more and more excessive.

"Enough. . . You talk too much!" Count Walker finally could not hold it in anymore. His face darkened. He looked at Lee Xiang coldly. In his opinion, Lee Xiang's words had already committed a serious crime. At this moment, other than anger, his mind was also filled with fury. He had a very bad feeling in his heart, and he was even worried. Of course, he wasn't worried about Lee Xiang. It was because he suddenly thought of another prophecy of his family. This was the biggest thing he was worried about. What Lee Xiang said just now seemed to be some kind of omen?

Lee Xiang didn't even look at Count Walker. His eyes were fixed on the middle-aged man who also had a thoughtful look on his face. He smiled and said, "Sorry, I almost forgot. The few of you seem to be the high and mighty Caucasian, the temporary rulers of the continent! I'm very sorry. I misspoke just now. . . But I've always been loyal to the ear, good medicine is bitter. It's a pity that not many of the nobles now understand this logic. Even if they can understand, how many people can listen to it? Hello everyone. This simple logic should be understood by everyone, especially the rulers of the various countries in Osman Continent. But why did everyone pretend that they didn't understand? I don't mean anything by what I said. On the contrary, I am standing on your side and thinking about the problem. Otherwise, there's no need for me to do anything unnecessary. Am I tired of living? "

Lee Xiang shrugged with a helpless expression. No matter what, since he was going all out today, he was naturally not afraid of anything!

Reynolds let out a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lee Xiang's tone at the end was slightly gentler. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Count Walker couldn't bear it any longer. He was just about to call for some servants to come in and bring Lee Xiang away. At this moment, the middle-aged man suddenly waved his hand. He then turned his head and gave Lee Xiang a deep look. His eyes flickered, and after a long while, he suddenly burst into laughter. He nodded and said, "En, it's a little interesting. Interesting. . . By the way, can you treat me to a bowl of porridge like this?"

Lee Xiang let out a long sigh of relief. To be honest, his heart was already in his throat just now. However, it seemed like he had temporarily survived a crisis. It seemed like the rumors outside were true. The current monarch of Reiss Empire was indeed a very assertive monarch! He just didn't know if what he said after today would leave any side effects for him.

Lee Xiang was almost certain that this man was the current ruler of Reiss Empire. He was the Count Walker of Rinker family, who had lost his power for the rest of his life. Moreover, there was another Duke accompanying him. Even the current prime minister didn't put him in his eyes. Who else could it be other than him?

Although he might look down on those peasants in his eyes, as a wise monarch, his considerations should not be limited to just this! Even if he looked down on them. He had to pretend to look down on them. If not, then he was not worthy of being a monarch. It turned out that. . . Lee Xiang had really made the right bet this time.

"Of course!" Lee Xiang nodded expressionlessly.

The middle-aged man took the bowl of porridge from Sander and took a sip. He nodded approvingly and said to himself, "It is really not bad. . . It is such a delicious porridge. Count Walker, don't you want to try it?"

He said the last sentence to Count Walker.

"Well. . . I am not hungry yet. . . " Count Walker said awkwardly.

The middle-aged man nodded and did not say anything. He turned to look at Lee Xiang and laughed. "This bowl of porridge makes me feel a lot! Like you said, appearance is not important. What is important is the inside. This continent is like this bowl of porridge that is made up of various countries. Doesn't Reiss Empire also have different races? Which one is lighter? Which one is heavier is indeed a very serious problem. . . "

The middle-aged man seemed to be deep in thought. After giving Zheng You a deep look, he turned around and left.

Count Walker and the older Duke quickly followed.

Looking at the three of them leaving, Lee Xiang suddenly sat back down on his seat. A trace of lingering fear flashed across his eyes, but in the end, a gratified smile emerged on his face. This time, he could only say that he had taken the risk and passed the test. However, he did not know what kind of change this matter would bring him today.

Lee Xiang turned his head and looked at Reynolds. Perhaps he could give him an answer? Because looking at his expression and some strange words from before, it seemed like he already knew some things!

"You took too much risk just now!" Reynolds looked at Lee Xiang, then frowned slightly, and his tone was slightly reproachful. He looked a little worried.

"I know, but do you think I have a better choice?" Lee Xiang nodded helplessly.

"No, no, no. . . " Reynolds shook his head. "I think I need to remind you that the mentality of a gambler like you is not important. When you take the first step, you must think of a way out. Otherwise, even if you are lucky enough to make the right bet, you must think of a way out. However, luck cannot always stand on your side. . . I have to admit that what you said just now had a positive effect, but what if. . . I mean, what if the bet is not correct? Do you know the seriousness of the matter? "

Reynolds's tone was extremely stern. Even when he was teaching Lee Xiang magic, he did not have such an expression. This kind of reaction shocked Lee Xiang.

"Like what you said just now, be gentler. . . " Reynolds continued, "Even if it is lighter, it is still discussing the most sensitive issue on this continent - race issues. Or they can think of your words as a complaint and complaint from a low race that has been under house arrest for more than ten years. But if you put it more seriously, then the situation is quite serious. . . I can tell you clearly, In a way, your words just now were extremely bold, and even a bit disrespectful. In this continent where white people are respected, a lowly commoner like you preach and even request for equality with white people. This is an attempt to provoke the hidden rules of this continent, will they agree? If one day you, Lee Xiang, gain power. . . If someone wants to share the power and everything you have, will you agree? You definitely won't agree. I think if you have a little bit of brain, you will think of ways to get rid of those who want to share your rights one by one! Don't you think so?"

Lee Xiang nodded. When Reynolds said this, he suddenly thought of the seriousness of the problem. This was indeed the reason. No matter how wise and powerful this king was, what he said just now was a provocation to a noble group that he represented. Could he tolerate such provocation? No matter how open-minded he was, he probably wouldn't.

Reynolds sighed slightly and continued. "More seriously, if what you said just now was heard by the Church, I'm afraid that you would be tied to the cross at the entrance of the Church without hesitation, and then burned to death!"

If it was the former, Lee Xiang completely agreed with this possibility. But if it was the latter, he would hold back because according to what he knew, the only spokesperson of the Goddess of the Church in the entire continent. And besides a few countries and races, Basically, they were all believers of the Goddess, but Reynolds just said that the Goddess only protected the interests of the white people. What about the other races?

"As far as I know, other races are also believers of the Goddess, right? Could it be that the Goddess is biased?" Lee Xiang asked in confusion.
