Yu Yanluo ignored him and directly instructed the steward of Biyuan to cut the stone.
The housekeeper of Biyuan Garden had just seen the unusual appearance of the rough stone she had chosen; what was hidden inside was likely extraordinary.
His heart was trembling. Biyuan had suffered a huge loss today, with one person after another opening up Heaven-rank treasures.
However, he quickly adjusted his mindset and treated it as advertising. He figured that as long as he publicized the matter extensively afterward, it would attract more people to come, which would actually be a good thing for Biyuan.
He was also curious about what could be cut from this rough stone, so he focused intently on cutting it.
Not only him, but everyone else was equally curious and gathered around, holding their breath and staring intently at the stone.
This stone is much smaller, so it's faster to cut than the stone Lion's Compassion just now.
With a single cut, a scorching heat rushed towards them, and for a moment everyone felt as if they were in a blazing desert.
"Could it be fire-attribute?" Everyone was startled and hurriedly craned their necks to look over.
The rough stone was completely cut open, revealing only a handful of sand inside; nothing else was there.
Shi Min secretly breathed a sigh of relief, while Shi Rong burst into laughter: "Making such a big fuss, and all you got was a bunch of sand, that's hilarious."
Princess Soren looked at Yu Yanluo with concern. As one of the top nobles of the Demon Clan, she had also gambled on stones and knew that many stones had various unusual appearances on the outside, but in the end, they yielded nothing inside.
Either there's something else misleading inside, or it opened too early and the treasures inside haven't fully formed yet.
This is also where the excitement and allure of jade gambling lie.
Yun Jianyue kept poking Yan Xuehen with her hand: "It's over, it's over. They've opened up a bunch of broken sand. Yu Yanluo is probably going to lose a lot of money. Does she have that many Heavenly Rank Yuan Stones now? Your Baiyujing family is so big and powerful, why don't you give her some support?"
Yan Xuehen felt uncomfortable from her poking and shifted uncomfortably: "Why aren't you helping me?"
"Who told our Holy Church to be poor?" Yun Jianyue said, with an air of "I'm poor, so I'm right."
Yan Xuehen snorted: "Let's wait and see, Yu Yanluo might not lose."
"Oh?" Yun Jianyue looked curiously at the handful of yellow sand, wondering if there was something special about it.
At this moment, Shi Min also came over. Compared to his younger brother, he was much more reserved. He smiled and looked at Yu Yanluo: "Queen Medusa, it seems that the outcome is already decided, isn't it?"
"Not necessarily," Yu Yanluo said calmly.
"Oh, you wouldn't say this sand is more precious than my Heavenly Rank Corpse Bamboo, would you?" Lion's Compassion said coldly. "As the head of a clan, isn't it beneath your dignity to make such a fuss?"
At this moment, Shang Liuyu spoke up: "This is not ordinary sand, but rare wood and demon sand, the raw material for top-grade rune pigments, and it is also needed to create some forbidden formations."
"What?" Everyone looked at the sand again and noticed that each grain of sand was different from ordinary sand, faintly emitting a dark blue light, just like the light flashing in those rune arrays.
However, this radiance is so subtle that it is not easily noticeable without careful observation.
The lion snorted: "The princess is on good terms with Queen Medusa. Could it be that she's deliberately speaking up for her and making up something to deceive us?"
Little Golden Roc King smiled slightly: "It's not that serious. A free-spirited person like the princess wouldn't fabricate something for such a personal matter."
The second prince nodded in agreement: "Indeed, I have absolute faith in the princess's character. I have also heard of the Strange Wood Demon Sand, but I do not understand runes and have never seen it with my own eyes."
Chi Gu curled his lip, cursing inwardly. These two guys are flattering my aunt all the time. Do they really want to be my uncle and ride on my head?
Zuan also remarked that Shang Liuyu possessed a transcendent and unrestrained temperament, and indeed, he had endless charm no matter where he was.
At this moment, the steward of Biyuan said, "I have seen it before. This is indeed a Heaven-rank item, the Strange Wood Demon Sand."
Upon hearing this, the lion's expression changed: "Don't spout nonsense!"
The steward of Biyuan said calmly, "With Biyuan's reputation over the years, how could I speak carelessly? I have handled many treasures over the years. I met the Strange Wood Demon Sand by chance once, which is how I came to know it."
Zuan seized the opportunity to speak: "It seems we have won. Your Corpse Bone True Bamboo can only be used to make Heaven-Rank Soul Summoning Banners, and it is only of great use to those who cultivate Yin Poison Necromancer Techniques, so its uses are obviously much narrower. The Strange Wood Demon Sand that our clan leader obtained can not only make forbidden formations, but anyone can use it, so it is naturally superior."
The housekeeper of Biyuan nodded secretly, indeed, the rare wood and the demon sand were slightly more precious.
“Nonsense,” Lion King immediately retorted, “They are both Heaven-Rank treasures, so why is your lousy sand superior?”
The Second Prince nodded: "That makes sense. So let's ask Biyuan. They handle a lot of treasures. If these two items are put up for auction, which one will fetch a higher price?"
The steward of Biyuan was slightly moved and respectfully replied, "Your Highness, it depends on who is participating in the auction. If there are necromancers, the Corpse Bone True Bamboo can fetch an astronomical price; conversely, if there are more rune masters participating, the Strange Wood Demon Sand can fetch an even higher price."
Working in a place like Biyuan, he was naturally shrewd and could easily tell that the Second Prince was showing favoritism.
He certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to say that the rare wood and demon sand were more precious, but
It wouldn't be right to say that the bones and bamboo are more expensive, so as not to offend either side.
In any case, the two treasures are not much different in value, and what I said is the truth.
