All of them were intercepted, and Ye Que began to doubt his life!
An Miaoyin was startled awake from her reverie, a hint of displeasure on her beautiful face.
She steeled her heart and said coldly, “Are you done yet?”
“Even if I were his plaything, it would be far more pleasant than being your wife!”
“Don’t talk to me anymore, I’m afraid Young Lord will misunderstand.”
“What?! You… you—”
Ye Que was so utterly enraged by this extreme humiliation that his face turned green, and he nearly ground his teeth to dust!
He pointed at An Miaoyin, ready to burst into curses.
“Are we still competing? If not, we’re leaving.”
Lin Xingyun, however, interjected with a smile, pulling An Miaoyin away.
“Compete!”
“You pair of adulterers! I’ll make you regret this sooner or later!”
Ye Que roared in fury, stepping into the Stone Gambling House.
“Tsk, it’s all your fault.”
“Now they’re calling us adulterers, huh!”
An Miaoyin chuckled charmingly, poking Lin Xingyun’s chest.
She didn’t seem to care at all about Ye Que’s curses.
Instead, being called a pair of adulterers with Lin Xingyun gave her a strange thrill!
“Who cares, I’ll deal with him eventually.”
“As for you, your performance just now was pretty good.”
Lin Xingyun said with an approving smile.
Just now, the System had notified him that Ye Que was utterly humiliated, and his mentality exploded.
His Luck value instantly burst out 40,000 points!
“You’re still talking about it! You actually used me to make a bet! If you lose, I won’t admit it, hmph!”
An Miaoyin pouted playfully, patting his chest hard.
Although she couldn’t understand why Lin Xingyun suddenly suggested stone gambling.
But seeing his confident demeanor, she was willing to trust him.
“Don’t worry, it’s a sure thing. Just wait and watch the show.”
Lin Xingyun playfully rubbed her cheek, then also entered the Stone Gambling House.
Ye Tong, standing nearby, watched with a deep frown.
His sister-in-law, now behaving like a straying wife…
Even if she could be brought back, he couldn’t possibly want her anymore!
Soon, the group entered the Stone Gambling House.
Inside, it was exceptionally spacious, with hundreds of stone-cutting and stone-selling stalls of various sizes arrayed within.
According to the rules agreed upon earlier, within one hour, each person would search for and buy stones, and then they would all be cut open publicly at the same time.
Under the same number of wondrous stones, whoever opened the most valuable treasure would win!
Lin Xingyun casually walked to a stall.
Ye Que was also at this stall, selecting wondrous stones.
Relying on his many years of experience, he carefully chose each one.
Finally, he set his sights on a fist-sized dark green stone.
But before he could make a move.
Lin Xingyun directly picked it up.
Then, without even looking at it, he threw Spirit Stones to the stall owner to pay.
“Hmm? You—!”
Ye Que was momentarily furious but couldn’t say anything, as he hadn’t made his move yet.
However, he felt an inexplicable sense of loss deep in his heart.
As if something very important to him had suddenly been snatched away!
“Ding! Congratulations to the Host for plundering the son of destiny’s Opportunity!”
“Reward: 8000 Luck points, Ye Que’s Luck points decrease by 8000!”
“Is the azure bronze key inside this one?”
“8,000 Luck points, it’s not cheap either.”
Lin Xingyun played with the wondrous stone in his hand, thinking to himself.
This was, of course, the wondrous stone containing the azure bronze key that he had learned about earlier from Ye Que’s recent Opportunity column!
This azure bronze key seemed to be very important, and he didn’t plan to open it in public.
At this moment, he put away the wondrous stone, then looked at Ye Que again with a half-smile, and the System panel popped up.
“Recent Opportunity: In one quarter of an hour, at Stall No. 25, purchase a jade-like round wondrous stone, which contains a piece of Cyan Jade Marrow, usable for forging King-Marquis-Grade Magic Treasure!”
“Recent Opportunity: In two quarters of an hour, at Stall No. 33, purchase a black rhomboid wondrous stone, which contains a piece of Black Tortoise Gold Crystal, usable for forging Saint-Grade weapons!”
“Recent Opportunity: In three quarters of an hour, at Stall No. 88, purchase a grey long wondrous stone, which contains a piece of Void Kun Corpse, usable for refining Great Saint Pills!”
… … … … … … … …
“With the System’s Opportunity prompts, you still want to beat me?”
Lin Xingyun looked at Ye Que’s detailed recent Opportunity, a wicked smile appearing on his lips.
If not for this, why would he gamble stones with Ye Que?
This wasn’t a competition of eyesight or experience.
It was pure harvesting!
The next moment, he went to Stall No. 25.
Ye Que was also selecting stones there.
When he once again locked his gaze on a wondrous stone.
Another fair hand picked up that wondrous stone first.
Then, without even looking, decisively bought it!
“Damn it!”
“This beast, he’s truly despicable and shameless!”
Ye Que was instantly filled with rage.
He felt that Lin Xingyun was cheating and playing dirty.
The other party was probably deliberately following him, observing his reactions, and then seizing the Opportunity to cut him off and steal his prize!
However, before he could scold him, Lin Xingyun had already gone to Stall No. 33.
When he angrily followed, he saw Lin Xingyun casually glance around and then pick out and buy a black wondrous stone.
Ye Que looked surprised and glanced at it.
He found that the wondrous stone was indeed quite extraordinary and likely contained treasure!
He turned his head and looked around the stall again, but found no other satisfactory stones.
Instead, the one Lin Xingyun was holding seemed to be the finest item at this stall!
“This beast… could he really be a Master of stone gambling?!”
“Was he… deliberately toying with me just now?”
A thought popped into his mind.
Suddenly, he felt a chill run up his spine to the top of his head!
He was astonished for a while before moving on to the next stall.
However, at Stall No. 88, the two met again.
“I think this stone contains hidden mysteries.”
“Ye Que, what do you think?”
Lin Xingyun picked up the grey wondrous stone, shaking it back and forth, and asked Ye Que mysteriously.
Ye Que observed it for a moment, then gritted his teeth, his face turning incredibly ugly.
Because that grey wondrous stone really looked like it contained a great treasure, probably of Saint-Grade level!
“Lin Xingyun, don’t be so arrogant!”
“I’ve been immersed in this Dao for decades; you’re still far from being able to contend with me!”
Ye Que uttered some harsh words, then, with a cloudy expression, went to find the next stall.
However, no matter how hard he tried, or how much his eyes blurred from looking.
Lin Xingyun could always intercept everything in advance through his recent Opportunity prompts!
It must be said, Ye Que’s stone gambling ability was indeed good.
The wondrous stones Lin Xingyun intercepted were all treasures!
But these treasures did not have too much impact on Ye Que’s Luck value.
After one hour, dozens of wondrous stones.
Only reduced his Luck value by just over ten thousand.
“To truly cut down his Luck, it seems I still need to start with his Physique, the Reincarnation Emperor Seal, and that Empress.”
At this moment, the time was up. Lin Xingyun was arranging the wondrous stones while secretly planning.
Across from him, Ye Que’s eyes were blank.
His face was full of self-doubt…
He looked at the piles of wondrous stones containing treasures in front of Lin Xingyun.
Then he looked at the clearly inferior stones in his own hand.
He felt as if he was having a terrifying nightmare!
“No… impossible!”
“How could I… even lose at stone gambling to this beast?!”
Just as he was unwilling to believe reality.
Lin Xingyun was already having the Stone Gambling House’s specialists publicly cut the stones one by one.
“One piece of Cyan Jade Marrow!”
“One piece of Black Tortoise Gold Crystal!”
“One piece of Void Kun Corpse!”
… … … … … …
As one treasure after another was deliberately opened in public.
This time, it was the entire Stone Gambling House that was shocked!
Everyone watching around couldn’t stop exclaiming and praising Lin Xingyun’s stone gambling ability.
They had gambled stones for many years and had never seen such a formidable person who could hit the mark every time, and all the opened items were treasures!
After Lin Xingyun’s wondrous stones were all opened, he chuckled and urged Ye Que.
“It’s your turn. Why haven’t you opened any yet?”
“Yeah! Open them! Open them!”
“One cut to poverty, one cut to riches! Why are you being such a coward? You look like a novice!”
“These two Young Masters seem to be competing in stone gambling!”
“Then what’s there to compete about?! That Young Master opposite is definitely going to lose!”
“Young Master with the green face, don’t be nervous. Just open all the stones first, stay calm, you can win!”
“I think there’s no need to open the stones. Just admit defeat and become his disciple. The difference in strength is too great.”
“That Young Master in white robes is indeed more than qualified to be his Master!”
The surrounding crowd was full of busybodies, now all egging on Ye Que.
Making Ye Que’s face turn even uglier by countless times!
The other party was clearly the beast who stole his fiancée!
But now, in the very area he was most skilled in.
He was being utterly crushed by the person he hated the most!
Ye Que felt so stifled that he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood!
