"There are hundreds of drops of the Fountain of Eternal Youth. I want to see how you win!" The man in green laughed out loud, as if he could already picture Ling Xian leaving.
"Victory has been decided." The lady in red looked at Ling Xian, "You are still too young to fight against me."
"You are getting cocky too early. Let's talk about this after I cut open the stone."
"I hope when that happens, you will still be able to speak."
Ling Xian's expression was calm and unfazed.
Before him, none of the stones had any secrets. How could he not know that the stone the man in green picked contained hundreds of drops of the Fountain of Eternal Youth?
Since he knew, why would he pick a stone that was weaker than the Fountain of Eternal Youth?
"I sure want to see if you can get something better than 100 drops of the Fountain of Eternal Youth!" The lady in red snickered.
"Let's wait and see."
Ling Xian softly grinned and shifted his gaze towards the tall lady, "Cut it open."
Hearing this, the tall lady nodded. She was nervous and worried.
However, after she cut open the stone, her worry turned into shock.
All because she got a Stone of Time.
The sixth level of the Fundamental Spiritual Energy of Time and Space meant this was a real Stone of Time.
"How is this possible, how can there be a Stone of Time?" The man in green was stunned. Other than shock, there was only shock.
The lady in red was the same.
The Stone of Time was a treasure even rarer than immortal gold. Even 200 drops of the Fountain of Eternal Youth cannot compare to it.
The two of them were not on the same level. Like the moon and the light of a firefly, they had no right to be compared.
"The Stone of Time … it is the legendary Stone of Time …" The lady in red stared at Ling Xian as her emotions churned.
At this moment, she finally understood why Ling Xian was so calm.
With the legendary Stone of Time, how could he lose? Even the treasures contained in the three stones were not as valuable as the Stone of Time!
"Now, you can't laugh anymore." Ling Xian softly grinned. He didn't mean to taunt. However, to the man in green and the lady in red, this was sarcasm.
But they had no words to argue.
At this moment, they truly couldn't laugh anymore and they couldn't speak anymore.
"Now, do you admit defeat?" Ling Xian shifted his gaze towards the man in green.
"I …" The green-clothed man's face was burning, and he wished he could find a hole to hide in.
Before, when he lost to Ling Xian, he could use Ling Xian's choice as an excuse. But now, he had no more excuses.
Whether it was the first choice or the second choice, he lost to Ling Xian. This proved that he was no match for Ling Xian!
Therefore, the man in green gave up and finally realized that he was a joke!
The red-clothed woman also felt that she was a clown.
She finally understood. Ling Xian saw through what the man in green chose the stone and what was inside the stone he chose.
In other words, this bet has been in Ling Xian's control since the beginning. If he wants to win, he cannot lose!
"So powerful. Master Lin's apprentice, in the entire City of Strange Stone, can be ranked top 10. Yet he lost to him …" The tall lady stared at Ling Xian dumbfoundedly. Other than shock, there was admiration.
"You … you saw that the strange stone I chose contained the Fountain of Immortality?" The azure-clothed man hesitated.
"That's right." Ling Xian's gaze was deep, "It's because I can see through it that I am advising you to change to another one."
Hearing this, the man in green's pupils constricted in awe.
Even though he had guessed it, after Ling Xian admitted it himself, he was still shocked to a point of no return.
It wasn't hard to determine if a stone contained a treasure or not. But to see what kind of treasure it contained was as difficult as climbing up to the sky.
Plus, the stones on the sixth level were much harder to see than the ones on the second level.
Yet Ling Xian could do it. This was shocking!
"I give up. I give up." The man in green bitterly smiled. He finally understood what it meant by there is always someone better out there.
Compared to Ling Xian, he was nothing!
"It's good that you admit defeat." Ling Xian softly grinned and shifted his gaze towards the lady in red, "He has admitted defeat. The bet ends here."
Hearing this, the lady in red clenched her fists. There was unwillingness and fear.
The end of the bet meant all the stones on the fifth level now belonged to Ling Xian. All of those stones were valuable.
Even though she was the Ming Clan Leader's favorite daughter, she couldn't avoid being scolded.
"Third Miss, you won't go back on your words, right?" Ling Xian softly chuckled. He had already used his Inner Gaze to look at the stones on the fifth level. A few of them contained shocking treasures.
This meant he earned a lot from this trip. Though he offended the Ming Clan Leader's daughter, he gained so many treasures. Without a doubt, it was worth it.
"Don't worry, you won't be forgotten." The lady in red clenched her teeth. She had already lost a lot of face. If she goes back on her words, she will lose even more.
"With your words, I don't have to worry."
Ling Xian softly grinned and walked down the stairs.
Then, he flapped around his sleeve and collected all the stones on the fifth level.
Just then, a grey-haired elder arrived on the fifth level. Seeing that Ling Xian was collecting the stones, he was first startled, then enraged.
"You dare to steal my Ming Clan's stones? You are seeking death!"
The grey-haired elder was enraged. He slammed forward with spiritual energy that could split open a mountain.
However, it was not enough to move Ling Xian.
The elder was merely of the eighth level. Even if he stood there without moving, he wouldn't be able to move a hair on his body.
However, what he displayed was only of the fifth level. Thus, he chose to hide.
"You sure have guts. You dare to steal my Ming Clan's stones? You must be tired of living." The grey-haired elder was furious.
"You are wrong. I didn't steal them. They were given to me by the Ming Clan." Ling Xian glared at the elder.
"Bullsh * t! Why would the Third Miss give you all the stones on the fifth level? "The grey-haired elder was furious and didn't believe Ling Xian.
"If you don't believe me, you can ask the Third Miss." Ling Xian spoke softly. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't want to reveal his real cultivation level, he would've slapped the elder a long time ago.
"There is no need to ask. He is speaking the truth." The lady in red walked down the stairs, finding it hard to hide her bitterness.
"Third Miss, don't joke around. These are billions of spiritual stones. How can you just give them away like that?" The grey-haired elder was in disbelief.
"To put it more accurately, she didn't give them away, she lost."
Ling Xian's expression was emotionless, "She made a bet with me. She used all the stones on the fifth level as the wager. In the end, she lost."
"The wager?" The grey-haired elder was stunned. He wanted to yell at the lady in red for being reckless, but he didn't have the guts.
He was merely the manager of the Mysterious Stones Workshop. His status was naturally lower than the Ming Clan Leader's third daughter.
"Don't worry. If there is any punishment, I will shoulder it. I won't drag you down."
The lady in red hissed and shifted her gaze towards Ling Xian. She said in a cold voice, "Just you wait. This is not over."
"You are welcome to give me the stones." Ling Xian softly smiled. He didn't think much of the lady's threat.
He wasn't afraid of the entire pro-war faction. Why would he be afraid of a Miss who used her background to do whatever she wanted?
"Fella, I will remember you. Just you wait." The lady in red was about to explode from anger. If it weren't for the Ming Clan's reputation, she would've made a move already.
