In the lobby of the shop, the young man was holding onto an extremely beautiful stone and was arguing with a man who looked like a manager.
After a while, Ling Xian understood.
So the stone the young man had was bought from this shop. Then, he heard from his friend that the stone was not good and wanted to return it.
Of course, the manager didn't want to. Therefore, an argument ensued.
"What an interesting stone …"
Ling Xian squinted his eyes. He didn't look down on the stone because of its extravagant appearance. Instead, he thought this stone was unusual.
"Aren't you trying to trick me? When I bought it, you told me I could return it. Why can't I return it? "The young man was furious.
"That is the rule. No shop can return a stone!" The manager didn't even bat an eyelid.
"But when I bought it, you told me I could return it as long as I don't cut it open!" The young man's lungs were about to explode.
Ling Xian frowned as well.
There was indeed such a rule. Once a stone is sold, it cannot be returned or exchanged. But when the young man bought it, the manager said he could return it, so the rule was no longer valid.
Or in other words, the young man was in the right.
"What can you do if I don't return it?" The manager glared at the young man.
"You!"
The young man's face was dark, "So you won't return it no matter what."
"That's right." The manager glared at the young man, "I suggest you leave immediately. Don't think about causing trouble. Don't forget, this is the Yang House's territory."
"The Yang House …"
The young man gritted his teeth and tightened his fists. But very quickly, he loosened them.
The Yang House was one of the seven Houses of the East Domain. It had been around for tens of thousands of years and was extremely capable. It was not something he could provoke.
Even though he didn't want to, he had to endure.
"Endure it. You can earn more spiritual stones, but if you die, you lose everything."
The steward smiled faintly. His words were filled with complacency and threat.
This extremely beautiful stone was unique to him and did not belong to the Yang House. Therefore, he didn't want to return it.
"Okay, I will endure."
The young man clenched his teeth, "But remember, one day, I will return the humiliation you suffered today."
"Haha, okay, I will wait."
The steward laughed out loud, fearless and insolent.
This caused the young man to grit his teeth, suppress his rage, and turn around to leave.
However, just as he turned around, a calm voice suddenly rang out.
"There's no need to wait for the future to take revenge. Today is enough."
Ling Xian spoke softly, unable to watch any longer.
The steward was really too shameless. Not only did he act shamelessly, he even took advantage of his position to bully others. How could he tolerate this?
It would have been fine if he hadn't seen it, but since he had, he had to do something about it.
"You are?" The young man frowned.
"You don't need to know who I am." Ling Xian grinned, "Can I take a look at that stone?"
Hearing this, the young man was even more confused. But he didn't say anything and handed the stone over to Ling Xian.
He came to return the stone because he was sure that there was nothing good in it. Naturally, it didn't matter.
"Truly extraordinary …"
The moment he accepted the rock, he activated the Testing Gold Hand. Instantly, the rock emitted a light that only he could see.
This meant there was a treasure inside this rock, and it wasn't an ordinary one.
Ling Xian was even more confident now. He smiled, "Though I don't know how many spiritual stones you spent, I am certain that it was worth it."
"You don't have to comfort me."
The young man bitterly smiled, "How can it be worth it? I spent 30 million spiritual stones. "
"Trust me." Ling Xian softly grinned, "Luckily, this person didn't give it to you. Or else you would regret it."
"I have already found a capable person to examine it. Though this rock isn't completely useless, there is no way there is a treasure inside." The young man bitterly smiled, not believing Ling Xian.
This was normal. He didn't even know Ling Xian, so why would he believe him?
"It doesn't matter if you don't believe me. You will know once you open it."
Ling Xian had a faint smile on his lips, "I believe that the treasure inside this rock will make this person regret it. It will make you pay for what you have done today."
"What a joke!"
The steward smiled in disdain, "Where did this idiot come from? How dare you butt into my business?"
"What, you can't provoke me?"
Ling Xian laughed. He wasn't even afraid of the Extreme Yang House. A mere steward wanted to scare him?
"Young man, you are looking for trouble."
The steward's expression darkened, "Don't forget, this is the Extreme Yang House's territory."
"Other than using the Extreme Yang House's name, what else do you know?"
Ling Xian shook his head and laughed, "The Extreme Yang House sure is arrogant. A mere steward dares to be so arrogant."
"Young man, I suggest you be respectful. Or else you will be doomed." The steward's expression was heavy like water.
"If the Extreme Yang House were to say that, it would have some power."
Ling Xian glared at him, "But you, who do you think you are?"
Then, he shifted his gaze towards the young man, "Open it. After all, this person won't give it to you. You have no choice but to open it."
Hearing this, the young man was silent for a while, "You are truly confident that the treasure inside this rock can help me pay for what I have done today?"
"So what if I do? So what if I don't?"
Ling Xian spoke softly, "If I don't have it, then you won't open it?"
"You are right. I will open it." The young man clenched his teeth.
"That's right. After you open it, you will be able to admire this person's expression." Ling Xian grinned. Victory was within his grasp.
Whether it was his experience or his hands, they all proved that this rock was extraordinary. It was definitely worth more than 30 million spiritual stones. In other words, the steward will regret it.
"How laughable."
The steward didn't care. He had seen it a long time ago and knew that there was no way this rock contained treasures. Or else he wouldn't have sold it.
"Whether or not it's laughable, we will know after the result is out."
Ling Xian's expression was calm as he urged, "Hurry up and open it. I have other business."
"I will open it now."
The young man responded. Then, using his finger like a knife, he split the rock in half.
Immediately, a golden light poured out and lit up the entire hall. It was extraordinary.
Then, a golden lotus rose into midair. Spiritual energy swirled around and Buddhist hymns echoed.
On top of the lotus, the silhouette of a Buddha sat in a lotus position. It was solemn and unmoving like a mountain.
At once, the Buddha's light shot through the cloud and the hymns echoed in everyone's ears, shocking everyone.
"That is … the legendary Buddha's Lotus!"
"My god, such a heavenly object. To the Buddhists, this is a treasure!"
"Legend has it that to train on the lotus, one day of training is equivalent to 100 days of training. With the protection of the Buddha, demons cannot invade!"
"The Buddha's Lotus is extremely rare. Even the holy land of Buddhism, Mount Meru, only has eight of them!"
Everyone exclaimed in shock and didn't hide their greed at all.
To anyone, the Buddha's Lotus is a heavenly object. Especially to Buddhists, it is a treasure.
Without exaggerating, when this news gets out, Mount Meru will for sure be alarmed!
"No wonder the Testing Hands emitted such blinding light. It is the Buddha's Lotus." Ling Xian softly grinned. His heart was as calm as water and he had no greed.
Though the Buddha's Lotus was great, he had the Buddha's relic and didn't need it.
Therefore, Ling Xian was calm and collected as he shifted his gaze towards the steward.
There were many emotions on his face. Shock, greed, and regret all intertwined. It was a spectacular sight.
