Xu Que's heroic and arrogant words echoed in the entire courtyard.
Everyone at the scene was moved!
Is this guy crazy?
How could anyone attend the Stone-Cutting Convention like this? He is breaking the rules!
Ryu Jingning couldn't stay calm anymore. She pulled Xu Que's sleeve and sent him a message seriously, "Xu Que, don't talk nonsense! Do you know what you are doing? You can't take all these ancient stones! "
The powerhouses of the Jiang Family and the Gong Family were stunned for a while. Then, they looked at Xu Que with a faint smile on their faces.
The World of Cultivators was so big. Even though the Jiang Family, the Gong Family, and the Bai Family were the top families in the East Continent, they didn't dare to say that they were the biggest family in the East Continent.
Their power was not enough to cover the entire East Continent.
Because of this, the Jiang Family and the Gong Family didn't dare to take the ancient stones they dug out from the periphery of the Heaven Dragon Cave. They were afraid that the other families in the East Continent would covet the ancient stones.
Therefore, the Jiang Family and the Gong Family had taken out some ancient stones to hold this Stone-Cutting Convention, in order to balance the feelings of the other families and to earn some Spirit Stones, which was the best of both worlds.
Yet now, a kid had appeared out of nowhere and actually said that he wanted to take all the ancient stones. This was simply an action that was courting death!
"He is too young after all!" Someone shook his head and sneered. "He is so reckless!
He thinks that he is great because he has just earned some Spirit Stones! If he wants to take all these Spirit Stones, he will be stuffed to death! "
"Heh, heh, this is going to be a good show!"
Many young sovereigns looked at Xu Que with ridicule on their faces.
The powerhouses of the other families and sects frowned unhappily. Even though they had just bought the Stinky Tofu from Xu Que, no one would give face to the big profits.
"My young friend, this is not a good idea!" Feng Wudao said calmly.
The Elder of the Illusionary Flower & Moon Sect was kind enough to remind Xu Que not to get into trouble.
However, this matter involved the interests of all the sects, so he couldn't explain it clearly. Otherwise, it would arouse the suspicion of others, and they might even misunderstand that the Illusionary Flower & Moon Sect was on Xu Que's side.
"Why not? Is it wrong to be rich and handsome? "Xu Que smiled indifferently.
Feng Wudao shook his head and said no more.
Ryu Jingning continued, "Xu Que, take back the Spirit Stones first."
"Don't be afraid. I know what I'm doing. Moreover, I don't intend to take all of these ancient stones for myself!" Xu Que replied with a smile.
Hearing this, Ryu Jingning heaved a sigh of relief. As long as he didn't want to hog it all for himself, it was fine!
However, Ryu Jingning vaguely felt that Xu Que's words were thought-provoking. Ryu Jingning couldn't help but feel a little uneasy when she thought of what he had said before he came in!
"My young friend, are you sure you want to buy all of these ancient stones?" the Elder of the Jiang Family asked as he looked at Xu Que with a faint smile.
"I do want to buy all of them, but it seems that none of you are willing to do so!" Xu Que said with a smile.
The Elder of the Jiang Family also said with a smile, "My young friend, what are you talking about? If you really want to buy all of them, no one here will object!"
"Forget it, I am not a greedy person, and I don't know anything about stone-cutting. I just want to play with them, and I don't need to compete with all of you!" Xu Que said modestly.
"So, you don't want to buy all of them?" the Elder of the Jiang Family asked again.
Xu Que waved his hand and said, "No, I will buy some of them later, but you have to pay me back the ten ancient stones you owe me first!"
"Of course!" the Elder of the Jiang Family said with a smile.
Then, he looked at the rest of the people and said, "If you don't mind, let this young friend choose ten ancient stones first, OK?"
Seeing that Xu Que was willing to give in, the big shots were relieved. So, they didn't mind letting him choose ten ancient stones first, so they all nodded their heads to show their agreement.
After all, there were a lot of ancient stones in this batch. Letting Xu Que choose ten ancient stones first was just a drop in the bucket. Moreover, they also believed that a young sovereign couldn't have sharp eyes. Stone-cutting was not only about luck, but also about insight and experience.
Letting him pick ten ancient stones first was not a big deal at all!
Seeing that no one had any objection, the Elder of the Jiang Family looked at Xu Que and said playfully, "My young friend, please do as you please!"
"OK!"
Xu Que replied. Then, he jumped up and dashed to the center of the courtyard.
The servants had already brought the ancient stones here, which almost formed a rockery.
Each ancient stone was in a variety of shapes. Some were as small as a ball, and some were even bigger than a man. All of them gave off a weird aura.
"These stones are so strong!" Xu Que couldn't help but frown.
Standing in front of these ancient stones, he sensed a sense of desolation and desperation, as if he was in a land of death. His Soul Strength was very uncomfortable, and his whole body felt uncomfortable!
Xu Que summoned the System and took out the X-ray Perspective Machine that he had redeemed. It was only the size of a palm, and he held it in his hand. Then, he started to scan the ancient stones directly.
Everyone frowned when they saw this.
"What is this guy doing?"
"What is that thing in his hand? Why is it glowing red without any Spiritual Qi? "
"He is just playing to the gallery. Stone-cutting requires good eyesight and experience. Can he see through the stone and see what's inside?"
"Hah, hah, hah …"
The others couldn't help but laugh.
See through the stone and see what's inside? How could there be such a ridiculous thing in this world?
However, Xu Que did see it.
Cultivation had its magic, but science and technology were also the wisdom of human beings.
The X-ray Perspective Machine had already penetrated through those ancient stones. The images projected by it were all displayed in the System interface in front of Xu Que, and only he could see them.
At this moment, Xu Que was completely dumbfounded.
Most of these ancient stones were wasted stones, and there was nothing in them!
What was more horrible was that he saw a horrible scene. There was an old man's head in one of the huge stones.
The old man's eyes were closed, as if he had been dead for countless years. There was an ancient aura about him, but his skin and flesh were immortal. Even his hair was intact. He was just lying quietly in the stone.
"Damn it! That's weird!" Xu Que smacked his tongue. Although he felt it was weird, he didn't feel it was strange at all!
This kind of thing was quite common in the World of Cultivators. There would always be some strange things. Of course, if the old man's head in the stone suddenly opened its eyes, it would be even more exciting!
Xu Que looked at it for a while and then looked at the other ancient stones.
After a while, he found that there was indeed an ancient stone that contained the Essence of Dragon Qi.
Xu Que was pleasantly surprised by this. He was delighted!
As for the rest of the stones that contained precious treasures, there were exactly 20 of them!
In other words, including the two ancient stones with the old man's head and the Essence of Dragon Qi, there were only 22 good stones, and the rest were all wasted stones!
Xu Que took out 10 ancient stones first, then turned to the Elder of the Jiang family and asked with a smile, "I've made my choice. I'll take these 10 ancient stones first, and I want to buy 12 more. Is that okay?"
