Not to mention Lion's Compassion, even the Second Prince and Little Golden Roc King, who were of higher status, were shocked. What kind of concept is 100,000 Heavenly Rank Yuan Stones?
One Heavenly Rank Yuan Stone is equivalent to 100,000 Ordinary Yuan Stones. People of their status usually only carry a few hundred Heavenly Rank Yuan Stones at most. 100,000 Heavenly Rank Yuan Stones are more than enough to build a powerful army from scratch!
Chiwen clapped his hands and laughed: "Fun, fun! This is what makes it interesting!"
He grew up in the Dragon Palace's treasure vault and didn't have much of a feeling for the treasures, so he seemed to thrive on chaos.
The lion clan members' expressions changed drastically, and then Lion Compassion's face darkened: "Are you kidding me?"
Yu Yanluo said calmly, "Of course not."
Actually, she was a little nervous. After all, no one is completely confident when it comes to gambling on stones. She had a lot of experience, but the person who dared to set up the scheme must have been quite skilled in this area as well.
In the past, although 100,000 Heavenly Rank Yuan Stones was a large amount, it wouldn't have been too difficult for her, who owned the Yu family.
However, Xu Yu exposed her Medusa identity this time, causing her to flee in haste, and she did not have time to transfer much of her property.
Furthermore, the snake clan was controlled by the two elders, Bai and Qing. As a newcomer, she did not have much real power, let alone be able to take out this money from the clan.
However, she agreed without hesitation because she trusted her lover.
Upon receiving her answer, the lions panicked somewhat, as this was an astronomical sum, and the three brothers were not yet qualified to use so many resources.
"What, you were so arrogant just now, but now you're backing down?" Zu'an said with utter sarcasm.
Lion King and Lion Glory's faces immediately turned bright red: "You bastards, you think we'd back down?"
The Lion King's anger level increased by 444...
Rage from Lion's Compassion +444 +444 +444...
I just used reverse psychology on someone else, but I never expected to fall for it so easily myself.
Seeing this guy's smug look really makes me angry.
Shi Min was relatively calmer and said in a deep voice, "But as far as I know, you only have a little over a hundred stones on you. You only got a few hundred Heavenly Rank Yuan Stones because you just cut a good item from the stone. Where would you get 100,000 Heavenly Rank Yuan Stones?"
Yu Yanluo calmly said, "No matter how down on its luck the snake clan is, it is still a great clan. I am the clan leader, and I still have 100,000 Heavenly Rank Yuan Stones."
Hearing her say that, Shi Min frowned deeply. Although he had indeed planned it that way at first and was thinking about how to lure her into the trap, she agreed too quickly, making him a little unsure.
Could it be that she was afraid to accept the challenge, so she deliberately had her men call out such an exorbitant price to scare us off and avoid gambling with us?
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his lips; he had almost been fooled by them.
"Alright, since Queen Medusa is so curious, how can we grown men back down? Let's take the gamble!"
"Third Brother!" Lion Rong and Lion Gong were anxious. If they really lost, the amount of compensation would be far too large.
Lion's Compassion raised his hand to stop the two, and secretly explained to them that the two brothers breathed a sigh of relief after learning the whole story. The snake clan was really too cunning.
Zuan's eyes lit up: "Everyone here must be our witnesses! If anyone tries to renege on their bet later..."
The little Golden Roc King, standing to the side, said with a half-smile, "Don't worry, we have some influence in this royal court. Anyone who can't afford to lose will probably not be able to stand firm in the demon race in the future."
The second prince nodded in agreement: "That's right, you can compete with confidence."
A bead of sweat trickled down Shi Min's forehead. Even with his usual composure, he felt immense pressure at this moment.
Unfortunately, with so many important figures watching, he couldn't back down halfway. So he kept reassuring himself that the snake clan was probably just putting up a brave front. Since they weren't afraid, he had even less reason to be timid.
With this in mind, he gradually calmed down and signaled that they could begin.
At this moment, the steward of Biyuan explained, "This Immortal-grade building is different from the other floors. Every piece of unpolished stone here is extraordinary, with its own unique spiritual energy. Therefore, unlike the other floors, they are not placed on desks, but rather among rocks and trees, blending into the surrounding scenery. Their spiritual energy can influence the surrounding environment, and the surrounding environment can also nourish them. In this way, even if there is nothing inside the unpolished stone originally, over time, it may form some treasures."
As soon as Zuan entered, he noticed that there were many artificial mountains and strange rocks, which formed some natural bonsai with the surrounding plants. He never expected that those rocks were actually Heavenly Stones.
At this moment, Yu Yanluo dared not slack off, after all, it involved 100,000 Heavenly Rank Yuan Stones, so she began to stroll in the garden, looking around for something she liked.
Suddenly she paused, noticing a strange rock in the fish pond that resembled a snake and a giant tortoise entwined together. The snake had a dragon's head, phoenix wings, and a python's body, while the giant tortoise had a turtle's back and a qilin's tail, exuding an ancient and profound Taoist charm.
"Was this carved?" Yun Jianyue couldn't help but ask, because the snake and the giant tortoise were so lifelike.
The steward smiled and shook his head: "That's not the case. The shape of this stone is naturally formed, which is why it is so magical. This stone is called Beigong Xuanwu, and it is one of the treasures of the Immortal Pavilion."
Hearing this explanation, even the other princes and princesses present were somewhat astonished. It was naturally formed in such a shape that there must be an extraordinary treasure inside.
Fearing they would make the first move, Shi Rong hurriedly asked, "How much is this rough stone? We'll buy it!"
