"If you cannot afford it, then leave. Don't say the Ming Clan's stones are bad."
Sarcasm arose. A lady in red walked up to the second level. Her expression was arrogant and her eyes were cold.
"Third Lady." The tall lady's expression changed and she quickly bowed.
"Is this how the Ming Clan treats its guests?" Ling Xian glared at the lady in red.
"The Ming Clan naturally welcomes its guests. However, that is for those who have the ability to purchase the stones." The lady in red smiled, "Someone like you who has no ability should leave. Don't dirty the Ming Clan's floor."
"How do you know I can't afford it? Aren't you afraid of being humiliated with your attitude? " Ling Xian shook his head and chuckled. Right now, his temperament was ordinary. Like a farmer in the mountains, his Qi was of the fifth level.
However, he was wealthy enough to rival a country. Even a powerful force cannot compare to him.
"I still have this little bit of eyesight." The lady in red smiled in disdain, "If you can afford it, then you wouldn't say the Ming Clan's stones are bad."
"The Ming Clan's stones are good. However, the value of the treasures inside is lower than the selling price. Isn't this a scam?" Ling Xian shook his head.
"You speak as if you can see the treasures inside."
"How about this, let's make a bet."
The lady in red teased, "If you can tell me the treasures inside, I will give them to you for free. If I'm wrong, you have to pay double the price. Do you dare?"
"Do you mean what you say?" Ling Xian smiled. He was the apprentice of the Seeking Ghost Cultivator, the most respected person on the Planet of Bei Dou. How could he not see the treasures inside?
"Ask her who I am." The lady in red snickered.
"She is the youngest daughter of the Ming Clan Leader."
The tall lady added in a voice that only she and Ling Xian could hear, "She is famous for her arrogance. Do not provoke her."
"No wonder." Ling Xian smiled and ignored the tall lady's kind reminder.
The lady in red was famous for her arrogance. He was also famous for not caring about his background. She was the third daughter of the Clan Leader. Even if she was the ancestor's daughter, he wouldn't care.
Ling Xian grinned, "If you want to bet, I will. But let me warn you, don't bet against me."
"I, your grandaunt, am not one to be scared."
The woman in red sneered and said, "I'd like to see if you really have the ability or if you're just boasting shamelessly!"
"Then you better be prepared to be scolded." Ling Xian faintly grinned. The stones here were valuable. If he was right, then according to the bet, he would have to give them to him for free.
Even though the woman in red was the Patriarch's daughter, she couldn't avoid being scolded.
"You should also be prepared to be humiliated." The woman in red sneered. To her, a level five cultivator couldn't possibly be that capable.
"Let's wait and see." Ling Xian grinned and marched towards the stone closest to him.
However, he was stopped by the tall woman.
She pulled on Ling Xian's sleeve and shook her head, signaling him not to bet with the lady in red.
"Don't worry about me." Ling Xian grinned and used his Inner Gaze.
In the next instant, he saw that the inside of the strange stone before him was a fingernail-sized Sun Stone.
The value of this stone was not cheap. However, if it was only the size of a thumb, its value would be greatly reduced. It would be much lower than the price of this strange stone.
"Can you tell?" The lady in red teased.
"A fingernail-sized Heavenly Stone of the Sun." Ling Xian softly grinned. The Inner Gaze was a secret technique created by the Ghost Seeker. Not a single stone can stop the Inner Gaze.
In other words, before him, the stone was transparent. If he wanted to, he could know what was inside.
"Hmm?" The lady in red was startled. She wasn't sure if Ling Xian was faking it or if he really saw through it.
"Whether it's real or fake, we'll find out when we open it." Ling Xian grinned and his finger slid across the stone.
Instantly, the stone cracked open, revealing the fingernail-sized Heavenly Stone of the Sun.
The light was as bright as the Sun, proving that Ling Xian was telling the truth.
"How is that possible?" The lady in red's expression changed. She couldn't believe what she was seeing.
The tall woman was stunned as well. Not even in her dreams did she think Ling Xian would be right.
"I told you not to bet with me." Ling Xian softly grinned and placed the fingernail-sized Heavenly Stone into his sleeve, "According to the bet, this is now mine."
"You!" The lady in red was enraged but had nothing to say.
This was the result of the bet. Unless she wanted to lose face, she could only watch as Ling Xian took it away.
"Do you still want to bet?" Ling Xian asked softly.
"Yes!"
The lady in red gritted her teeth, "You must have guessed it. I do not believe you actually have the skills!"
"Since you want to give me a few more treasures, then I won't be shy."
Ling Xian grinned. His eyes glanced around and he named nine treasures in a row.
Then, he waved his hand and the nine stones cracked open. The treasures inside were exactly as he said.
Even the size was the same.
This stunned the lady in red. The tall woman was stunned as well.
It was truly too shocking. With just a glance, he was able to discern the treasure contained within the wondrous stone. It was simply unimaginable!
"Do you still want to bet with me?" Ling Xian grinned. Unless it was a treasure he didn't recognize, there was no way the lady in red would win.
"Impossible, this is impossible …" The lady in red stared at Ling Xian. There was no longer a trace of disdain in her eyes. There was only shock.
Yes, one was guessed, two was luck, but what about three? What about 10?
This was capability, unquestionable capability!
"Now, you don't want to bet with me anymore, right?" Ling Xian grinned. With his capabilities, he could make the lady in red go bankrupt!
"You!" The lady in red clenched her teeth but didn't dare to bet anymore.
She had witnessed Ling Xian's capabilities. If she continues to bet, she will go bankrupt!
"I'm giving them to you." Ling Xian shifted his gaze towards the tall woman and let the treasures inside the 10 stones fly before her.
"For me?" The tall woman's expression was sluggish. Not even in her dreams did she think Ling Xian would give her these 10 valuable treasures.
The lady in red also didn't think this would happen. At this moment, she felt her face burning, as if someone had slapped her.
Before, she looked down on Ling Xian and thought he was a useless cultivator of the fifth level. Now, she realized she was wrong.
Whether it was the treasures Ling Xian said were hidden inside the 10 stones or the fact that he was giving them to the tall woman, they all proved how extraordinary he was. Naturally, the lady in red's face was burning.
"You're really … giving them to me?" The tall woman was in disbelief.
To her, these 10 treasures were treasures she could never acquire in her lifetime. Naturally, she didn't dare to believe it.
"I don't lie. Take them. Think of it as thanks for your reminder." Ling Xian smiled. Ignoring the fact that these 10 treasures were acquired for free, even if they weren't, he didn't care.
"This is far too valuable. I cannot accept it." The tall woman shook her head.
"I told you, this is to thank you for your kindness." Ling Xian grinned, "Take it. After all, you got them for free."
Hearing this, the lady in red became even more enraged. The way she looked at Ling Xian could spit out fire.
