Chapter 1199

You’ll Have to Pay the Medical Fees

“That’s not the way to play Texas poker!” Arthur argued in panic. “H-How do you play like this? It means
death if you’re bitten by the snakes! No, I’m not playing this game!”

Instantly, Matthew’s face turned cold. “You’re not playing? Sure, you can leave once you hand over all of
the Gibson’s properties and get your family out of Eastcliff!”

“That’s impossible!” Arthur yelled in anger. “Are you planning to devour all of my family’s properties,
Matthew Larson? Dream on! Even if I’m dead—”

Before he could finish, Matthew waved his hand, and Tiger rushed forward, grabbed Arthur by his
neck, and pinned him to the ground.

“Beat him up and send men to his home. Tonight, they can either hand over all their properties and leave
as told, or their entire family will be gone!” Matthew ordered in a chilling voice.

Nodding, Tiger dragged Arthur away without saying a thing.

Meanwhile, Arthur struggled with his might. Clearly, he was in regret, but he couldn’t make a sound
because he was held at his throat, leaving the other five masters with completely pale faces, helpless at
the situation.

Initially, they didn’t need to be afraid of Matthew with their strength. However, they had helped Lord
Voodoo in his fight with the 72 voodoo clans of Orleans. In the end, Lord Voodoo had suffered a huge
defeat, and their men had made a huge loss as well, resulting in a high number of injuries and
casualties.

And now, these six families didn’t have much power to protect themselves anymore. Otherwise, the
crown prince wouldn’t be able to catch hold of Robert and Johnny so easily!





“Do you think you can cover up the truth, Matthew Larson? Amongst the Ten Greatest Families, the
oldest family has a history of almost three centuries. Do you think that you can wipe us out completely
with just one word from you?”

“You can give it a try to see if I have that power!” Matthew challenged indifferently.

Johnny opened his mouth, but no words came out. There’s no other choice, he thought. We have no
means of fighting back.

The crown prince came over and grumbled, “Hey, are we still playing? I’m saying this now, Matthew: My
cards and equipment are already here, and if these people don’t give me a good show, I’ll kill every last
member in their family!”

The looks of the five masters changed again. It was obvious that the crown prince was on Matthew’s
side, and they could no longer go against him.

Finally, much to the crown prince’s delight, they bit the bullet and agreed to play with Matthew.

After throwing the poker cards into the snake den, Matthew said, “I know that you guys don’t dare to start
first, so I’ll set the first example for everyone.” Then, he reached his hand in and drew out an ace of
spade.

None of the poisonous snakes bit him, which made the other five masters gape in amazement.

“It’s your turn now!” With a smile on his face, Matthew pointed at Robert. “Since you’re the leader of the
Ten Greatest Families, we’ll start from you first.”

While the other four masters sighed in relief, Robert’s face was ashened, and he wanted to refute. But
when Tiger paced over, he quickly changed his mind.



Tightening his jaw, he extended a trembling hand into the glass table and drew out the card on the
outermost side.

Even though the card had a small number, he felt as though he had been saved because he wasn’t
bitten by a poisonous snake at least.

Next, it was Johnny’s turn, and he tried to do what Robert did. Unfortunately, he wasn’t as lucky because
a rattlesnake bit his finger just after he reached in with his hand, and he roared in pain, drawing back his
hand immediately.

But the rattlesnake had a lethal poison, and he almost broke down as he stared at his blackened finger.
“Save me… save me…” he pleaded, his voice trembling. “Send me to the hospital quickly. Get an
ambulance right away…”

Pacing to him, Matthew had a smirk on his face as he said, “Why do you need to go to a hospital? I’m a
doctor, and I can cure this poison. However, you’ll have to pay something for the medical bill!”
