Chapter 37 Master Lu



"Then let's invite Master Lu to come."

Xu Fu said loudly.

"It's actually Master Lu!"

Upon hearing this, the onlookers were all taken aback.

This Master Lu's real name is Lu Dan, and he is a holder of a Geo-attribute Eye of God.

Speaking of which, Master Lu Dan was an extraordinary person. Because of his dedication to the craft of stone cutting, he was noticed by the gods and obtained this rock-attribute God's Eye.

After obtaining the Eye of God, Master Rudan did not develop any combat techniques, but instead tried his best to apply the elemental power of the Geo element to the art of stone cutting.

Thus, a master stone cutter known as "Kongshou Jie" (meaning "empty-handed cutter") became a legend in the world of jade gambling.

There's even a saying that the stones opened by Master Lu Dan have a much higher probability of being sold as goods, although he has never admitted this and has claimed that it was just an accident.

Now, witnessing Master Lu Dan breaking a large stone with his bare hands has excited these avid stone enthusiasts.

"It is said that Master Lu Dan had a famous skill called Chest-Breaking Stone. He would place a rough stone on his chest and, by using the squeezing force of his pectoral muscles and the resonance of the rock element, he could easily extract the strange stones inside."

"Really?"

"What's so special about that?" someone nearby said dismissively.

"I have witnessed Master Lu Dan's amazing skills."

"What kind of amazing skill?" the people around him asked curiously.

"It's like throwing an egg against a rock."

The man's expression was solemn.

"hiss--"

A collective gasp rippled through the crowd, and some men instinctively clutched their genitals.

"Sigh—" the man sighed again.

"However, this move is extremely taxing. Master Lu Dan used this technique in public once, but when he used it again, it would be 10 years later..."

"As expected of Master Lu Dan, that place suffered such great damage, yet it was able to be repaired in just ten years."

The group of people all exclaimed in admiration.

………………

Well……

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mu's eyelids twitched violently.

This Master Lu Dan is truly a ruthless scoundrel.

………………

As the group was talking, Xu Fu was seen helping a burly middle-aged man walk over.

However, those with keen eyes noticed that Master Lu Dan's legs were trembling. Although he could walk normally, he had some difficulty using his lower body to exert force.

"Alas, it seems we won't be able to see Master Lu Dan's amazing skills today..."

Everyone could only lament that they had arrived at the wrong time.

"No way, your skill has a cooldown period!" Jiang Mu thought to himself, complaining incessantly.

………………

"Is this the stone we're going to cut this time?"

Arriving before the six stones, Master Lu spoke solemnly.

Having reached a point where he had become indifferent to everything, he simply treated each rough stone with a devout heart.

"Let's begin."

Master Lu said in a deep voice.

………………

"Let's cut one piece at a time."

When Master Lu looked at Jiang Mu, the latter made a suggestion.

"OK."

Zheng Shuang said proudly.

In her opinion, the result is the same whether you open it first or later.

"The ultimate victor will be me, and it can only be me."

Zheng Shuang thought to himself with pride.

"After winning, how many stones should I take with me...? Buy them all? Forget it, I'd better give that guy a break. After all, I'm not some kind of devil, hehehehehe..."

………………

"Buzz—"

A pale yellow elemental force appeared in his hand, and as Lu Dan's palm fell, it gradually attached itself to the first rough stone that Zheng Shuang had chosen.

As the rock element came into contact with the rubble, the contact surface between the two quickly turned into a layer, which slowly drifted to the ground under a gentle breeze that seemed to have risen at some unknown time.

Suddenly, Lu Dan's hand paused, slowly coming to a stop. As his hand stopped moving, the layer of rock elemental energy gradually disappeared.

"This is... the shipment has been completed!"

The surrounding crowd erupted in cheers.

Carefully blowing away the layer of dust on the rubble, Lu Dan examined it closely for a while, then looked up and smiled.

"Congratulations, Miss Zheng Shuang, this is a piece of night-moon stone of excellent quality."

"Night-blooming stone..."

Zheng Shuang waved her hand dismissively.

"Master Lu, then please demonstrate your skills for us."

Zheng Shuangjiao smiled.

"Since Miss Zheng Shuang has given me, Old Lu, so much face, it seems I can't hold back either..."

Lu Dan smiled, and as the rock elemental power surged in his hand, he slapped the rough stone.

Instantly, the basketball-sized boulder shattered into pieces, while the head-sized Noctiluca Stone within was enveloped in a ball of rock elemental energy and landed in front of everyone.

"Wow, it's huge!"

Everyone was filled with amazement.

"Manager Xu, how about you sell me this Night-Mountain Stone?"

Those with active minds in the crowd had already begun to covet the night-scented stone.

"Cough cough..." Xu Fu coughed a few times and smiled faintly.

"These rough stones were already paid for by these two after they were selected, and now they have nothing to do with me, Xu. If you want to buy them, please contact these two."

"hehe……"

When Zheng Shuang saw Xu Fu pass the buck to him, he just smiled.

"These night-blooming stones will be processed at our Zheng family's facility and then released to the market. We hope everyone will support them then."

The implication was that the Zheng family wanted the stone, and the others could forget about it.

Although it's easy to offend people, what can you do when the Zheng family is so powerful and wealthy?

………………

"Next, it's time to see what this young man Jiang Mu has in his stone."

Master Lu laughed.

The first piece of ginger wood placed there was a rough stone that he had chosen himself.

Master Lu came to the rough stone, examined it for a long time, and exclaimed in admiration.

"The rough stones chosen by this young friend Jiang Mu... are all very round..."

Hahahaha...

Upon hearing this, a burst of good-natured laughter immediately erupted around them.

"Enough with the nonsense."

In the master's hands, it once again manifested as a ball of Geo elemental power.

"Let's begin."

As the elemental force came into contact with the rough stone again, a hissing sound rang out once more.

This time, the rock elemental force slowly eroded downwards until it finally stopped after eroding most of the rock.

"They actually managed to ship the goods!"

Seeing this, Zheng Shuang raised an eyebrow.

"A newbie managing to sell something on their very first try is incredibly lucky."

"But..."

Zheng Shuang sneered.

"The unique stone that was extracted from this rough stone is far too small; in any case, it cannot compare to my Night-Mooring Stone."

At the same time, Master Lu's hands continued to work, peeling away the residue on the rough stone layer by layer, finally revealing the crystal polyhedron inside.

"This is……"

Those around looked on curiously, while those in the know exclaimed in surprise.

Holy crap!

"This...this is amber!"

"Damn! Amber can actually be found inside these rough stones!"

"This guy has really struck it rich this time!"

"Oh, how so?"

"This amber is a very good thing."

Those in the know immediately provided an explanation.

"Leaving aside its decorative effect, it is said that some alchemical potions made from this amber can enhance the abilities of those who possess a Geo-attribute Eye of God."

"Holy crap, that's strong!"

“Who can argue with that? In my opinion, this young man’s amber is no less valuable than Zheng Shuang’s night-blooming jasmine just now.”

"But Zheng Shuang's Night-Mooring Stone is huge..."

"What's the use of being big? There are already too many night-blooming jasmine stones on the market. On the contrary, amber is a hot commodity right now."

"Let's go, let's go ask that young man if he's planning to fight."
