Chapter 265: Can be used as a betrothal gift
Xie Qingui rubbed his eyes, his face full of disbelief: "Xiao Fei...you're really lucky."
Ye Fei nodded without any modesty, agreeing that the gem with added control attributes was very suitable for her.
So, amidst the envious and jealous gazes of the onlookers, Ye Fei tossed the turquoise gem into her storage ring, secured the next rough stone, and continued cutting stones.
The second piece was a piece of scrap material that Ye Fei casually picked up. Her expression was calm and natural, and her cutting speed did not slow down because it was scrap material. Everyone held their breath and stared intently as she cut the stone thinner and thinner.
The final blow resulted in nothing happening.
The crowd gasped softly. If the second piece yielded another gem, this little girl's luck would be the envy of everyone!
The third piece still showed no color other than the original gray.
"Sigh, I've already run out of luck with such a high-quality control gem. It's unlikely I'll get anything better next time."
"Yes, that gem is priceless. Even if everything else is scrap, the young lady will still make a profit!"
"I'm so envious! When will I be able to find such a good gem!"
"We mean, maybe in the next life..."
Ye Fei remained calm and unconcerned about the surrounding chatter. She secured the next piece of rough stone under the cutter, controlled the angle and position of the blade, and cleanly and decisively cut it down with a snap.
Xie Qin Gui and Yun Fu Sang looked at the cut with expectant eyes—
Gray.
...
Yan Ge, holding his pipe, glanced at Ye Fei, a smirk playing on his lips: "Little girl hasn't opened any more gems, Master Song, I've won this gamble..."
"Aren't there still a few uncut rough stones?" Song Yu said calmly. "The outcome is still uncertain, and it's hard to say who will win or lose."
"Just keep being so smug!" Yan Ge was so angry at his calm attitude that she gritted her teeth: "Once I get the Mo Yu token, I'll see if I don't steal your Po Yue Lou's most prized possession!"
Li Yuan leaned leisurely against the wall behind the table, his arms crossed as he watched Ye Fei's expression.
It seems that his daughter quite likes opening stones.
He has a prime underground mine in the Demon Realm, which, if Fei'er likes it, can be given as a betrothal gift...
The thought flashed through my mind for a moment, and then another exclamation came from the other side of the table.
"Golden! It's golden light!"
"It's a defensive gem! Oh my god, I got another one!"
"How can this girl have such good luck? Holy crap... Is she even human?!"
Ye Fei polished the cut, bright gold gem clean. Hmm, the color of this defensive gem is not as good as the control gem from before, but it's not far off and won't affect its use.
Even Yun Fusang's usually calm demeanor was crumbling: "Xiao Fei, you...you..."
Xie Qingui was so surprised that his mouth gaped open. It took him a while to come to his senses. He then quietly leaned over and asked, "Xiao Fei, could you also use an eye technique that can see through everything, just like Fusang?"
"Oh? Eye techniques can also see through the inside of raw stones?" Upon hearing this, Ye Fei turned her curious gaze to Yun Fusang.
“Yes, but that requires cultivating the pupil technique to a very high level, which is beyond my current capabilities,” Yun Fusang explained.
Ye Fei curled her lips into a smile, then put the defensive gem into the ring and continued to open the stone.
Song Yu finished his tea and gave Yan Ge, who looked surprised, a very understanding smile: "Hehe, little girl, you have a good hand. It seems that this Ink Feather Token is not meant for Manager Yan Ge."
