Chapter 625: F*cking Good Luck!

Lord of Jade pulled at Ling Yun hurriedly as he turned to leave.

“Why? Are you regretting your decision? Or is there a problem with my check?” Ling Yun asked in an estranged tone.

“No, of course not!” A huge smile broke out on the Lord of Jade’s pudgy face. He pointed to the audience. “Little pal, I’m not regretting, and your check definitely has no problems. However, you can’t leave now! Everyone’s waiting to see the cutting of your rocks!”

I even have to cut my rocks publicly? Ling Yun liked to keep things quiet, especially when he obtained an unfair advantage against others. It might even be a media field day if they were to cut this King of Stones now!

Ling Yun decided to act dumb. “Lord of Jade, so sorry, I bought these stones so that I can appreciate them at home in private. I’m not gambling stones...”

The scene exploded with chatter again!

What? Not gambling stones? Bought them to appreciate them at home? He spent eighty million yuan to do what?

What kind of idiot would do this!

Ling Yun pointed at the black King of Stones. “I’ll be frank with you. I bought the King of Stones as a sort of charm, a treasure to ward off evil spirits. Won’t I be wasting money if I cut off any of it?”

Ling Yun managed to shock everyone again with his words!

There was no lack of such stones in the mountains! How mad must this guy be to pay so much for this rubbish and to display it as a treasure to ward off evil spirits?

Even Song Zhengyang and Murong Wenshi were shocked to their core. Ling Yun’s brains seemed to be working fine before they came here. What was wrong now?

What was with him and these loads of useless stones?

“Little pal, this is a rule here at the stone gambling event... No one leaves with the raw stones uncut...” The Lord of Jade continued his persuasion.

“Moreover, you’re purchasing the King of Stones from our Yu Ding Xuan. This is too huge a matter. We won’t be able to continue our business if you don’t cut it here and now...”

The Lord of Jade could feel his pants on fire now. He had never thought he would meet with such a crazy chap. He wasn’t putting on a front just now, nor was he gambling stones. He really just wanted to bring these stones home.

“That’s my treasure to ward off evil spirits. I’m not going to cut it. Wouldn’t I be the biggest loser here if I were to cut it to nothingness and find no jade inside? Unless someone is willing to compensate me with another treasure to ward off evil spirits...”

Ling Yun finally showed his fox tail. He wanted to use this chance to exchange for the Lord of Jade’s Green Dragon Out at Sea!

The Lord of Jade had no other ideas and looked to Murong Wenshi and Song Zhengyang for help.

Song Zhengyang could do no more since Ling Yun passed the check to them. Moreover, he really wanted to see if this King of Stones had any jade inside of it to be discovered or not.

“Ling Yun, you have to at least cut it once since it’s the King of Stones. Everyone will then have to give up if there isn’t any jade inside.”

“I’m not going to cut my treasure to ward off evil spirits!” Ling Yun made a scene deliberately. No one could make him do anything he didn’t want to in Qingshui City.

“Ling Yun, this deal might be done, but I might be able to do something about it. I can strike another deal with the Lord of Jade to treat it as though it never happened if your cut doesn’t have any jade in it. What do you think?”

Song Zhengyang lowered his voice so that only Ling Yun could hear.

“No, I’m not cutting it, and I won’t regret it. I like the current structure of the stone. This is the perfect shape to ward off evil spirits. Any alterations would spoil its perfect form, which will render it useless against evil spirits!”

Everyone was shocked. The King of Trash for eighty million yuan for its shape?

Suspicion started filling the crowd. At the same time, it was as though their hearts were tickled by ants. Most of them witnessed how the eight-meter tall stone became 1.8 meters. Someone had finally bought it, and there was just this last bit left, but its new owner wasn’t willing to cut it.

Song Zhengyang was speechless. “Tell me then, what can they do so that you are willing to cut it? I’ll negotiate with them,” he finally said.

Ling Yun smiled and raised his voice a notch. “Uncle Song, don’t try to persuade me. I won’t cut it. Who would cut a treasure to ward off evil spirits? Didn’t I say before? Unless someone is willing to give me his own treasure to ward off evil spirits...”

“Lord of Jade, you heard it. Ling Yun paid a hefty sum to use it as a treasure to ward off evil spirits. I don’t have any more ideas...” Song Zhengyang shrugged.

The Lord of Jade heard Ling Yun’s words. He couldn’t help but glance at his Green Dragon Out at Sea. Could this lad be eyeing it?

However, no matter whether what Ling Yun said was the truth or not, it was impossible for him to give the Green Dragon Out at Sea to him. He bought it for two hundred million yuan. The highest price that was offered to him was four hundred million yuan. How could he offer it up to Ling Yun just for him to cut that trashy stone?

Ling Yun only mentioned it twice in passing, and the Lord of Jade could decipher his true intentions. That just showed how smart the Lord of Jade really was.

The Lord of Jade’s heart flashed as his eyes fell onto the three carts of raw jade stones. There was only one treasure to ward off evil spirits in his store, which couldn’t possibly be exchanged for that load of rubbish, right?

He really wanted to see whether any jade would be in this pile of rubbish Ling Yun bought. If there wasn’t any jade even after a few of them were cut, then Ling Yun was really just buying for fun. In that case, there would be no need to cut the King of Stones.

The Lord of Jade exchanged glances with Song Zhengyang before nodding at Song Zhengyang and Murong Wenshi. “Little pal, we won’t force you to cut this King of Stones since you’re really against it. However, rules are rules, you have to at least open a few of the other stones.”

“Yes, cut a few and see what’s inside!”

“No, what are a few small stones compared to the King of Stones! We are here to see the King of Stones being cut!”

“At least cut ten rocks...”

“Yes, not all of them are treasures to ward off evil spirits, right?”

The Lord of Jade’s suggestion garnered the support of the audience. It was so reasonable that Ling Yun couldn’t refute.

How could it be possible for someone like that to not succeed?

Ling Yun secretly complained in his heart since the Lord of Jade didn’t take his bait. He suddenly felt that their suggestion to cut a few stones wasn’t bad. They would definitely ask him to cut the King of Stones if all of them were to have jade in them!

Ling Yun pretended to accept it unwillingly. “Sigh, why would there be such a rubbish rule? I won’t come here to buy stones in the future. So troublesome...”

His complaint gave rise to laughter.

Ling Yun walked to the three carts and picked a few pieces without spiritual energy. “Cut these few since you insist on cutting. Sigh, my heart is aching so bad...”

The Lord of Jade waved his hand, and five staff members appeared promptly. They took the stones from Ling Yun and took them to the place to cut stones.

“Don’t spoil them, alright...” Ling Yun was too lazy to even walk over. He stood by his carts, guarding over his precious stones. He deliberately used the Mystical Dragon Howl so that everyone could hear him clearly.

“I’ll take a look. We could at least get some money back in the event there is really some green inside! A little goes a long way!” Tang Meng followed the crowd.

The Lord of Jade, Han Laosan, Song Zhengyang, Murong Wenshi, and the rest didn’t even move from their spots. They knew that it was impossible for the stones to contain any green from their exteriors.

Not just the stones they took! It was impossible for any of the stones to contain jade unless he was super lucky!

“Little pal, you can rest assured with our Yu Ding Xuan stone cutting master!” The Lord of Jade reassured Ling Yun.

The Lord of Jade found Ling Yun to be fascinating.

“Little pal, don’t forget to sell it to us, Yu Ding Xuan, if there’s really any jade inside...” he told Ling Yun with an amused tone.

“I’m buying the stones, I don’t care if there’s jade in them...” Ling Yun replied blandly.

Zhu Yongwang and Hou Yaozong didn’t even bother going over. They wanted to be as close to Ling Yun as possible when his time of shame came.

“Ling Yun, if even one of these stones contains jade, I’ll gobble all the stones in these three carts!” Zhu Yongwang challenged Ling Yun.

“You want to eat stones? Sure, but I’m afraid you won’t be able to afford them. These cost me eighty million yuan! If any of them contain jade, you can eat the stone in your hand instead. I won’t stop you...” Ling Yun jested.

“A layman like you wanting to get something with jade inside? In your next life!”

Zhu Yongwang turned his nostrils up into the air and snorted. He said no more and waited for the results.

“Ling Yun, you have become a fool now, right? I guarantee there will be no jade inside them. Let’s see how you finish this!” Hou Yaozong said.

Ling Yun stopped Tie Xiaohu from rushing over. He smiled. “Your guarantee will probably fall through, but I can guarantee that you’ll have no teeth left when night falls!”

The Lord of Jade kept silent, trying to size Ling Yun up. He still couldn’t understand Ling Yun.

The whole place fell silent except for the sizzling of the stone cutting tool!

In the next moment.

“There’s jade...” The result was out!

“Oh my god, there’s jade in the first stone! And it’s ice jade!”

“F*ck, he has such f*cking good luck!”
