Chapter 1969 - 1969 1959 Raiding the Gambling House

1969: Chapter 1959: Raiding the Gambling House 1969: Chapter 1959: Raiding the Gambling House “Can the opened treasures be sold to the Shengdao Alliance?”

Long Yan looked at the middle-aged man, already having a bold plan in mind: since he was going to play, he would play big.

“Of course, no matter what the treasure is, the price offered by the Shengdao Alliance is absolutely the highest.”

The middle-aged man answered with a smile.

“Very well, I trust the reputation of the Shengdao Alliance.”

Long Yan’s lips curved slightly upwards, and then, with a grasp of his five fingers, he revealed a seal, saying to the middle-aged man, “Here are 5 million Divine Stones, I’ll choose 500 pieces of stone material.”

5 million Divine Stones was almost all his Divine Stones.

“This…”

The middle-aged man was stunned, looking at Long Yan in shock.

Did Long Yan really believe his luck was so incredible just because he casually chose a piece of stone material that opened into a Black Jade worth 50,000 Divine Stones?

Unless Long Yan was mad!

“Is this youngster playing dumb to catch the smart?”

The middle-aged man thought of a possibility, but this thought was quickly dismissed, as not even the masters of stone appraisal from the Alliance had such skill.

Thin Monkey and Little Demon were also stunned, not expecting Long Yan to make such a grand gesture.

“A real tycoon, this is what a real tycoon looks like!”

Thin Monkey swallowed a mouthful of saliva, completely overwhelmed by Long Yan.

“Are you sure you want to buy 500 pieces of stone material all at once?”

The middle-aged man asked.

“What, doesn’t the Shengdao Alliance dare to take the deal?”

Long Yan said with a smile, nodding as he asked.

“You’re joking, the Shengdao Alliance is never afraid of doing business.”

The middle-aged man said with a slight smile, then took the seal, checked it over, and finding the count of Divine Stones correct, he stowed it away in his Storage Ring.

“You can now choose 500 pieces of stone material.”

The middle-aged man said to Long Yan, also curious to know whether Long Yan truly had the skills or was just pretending to be more than he was.

Right then, Long Yan walked towards the area where the stone materials were displayed, and the middle-aged man, Little Demon, and Thin Monkey quickly followed, all eager to see how Long Yan would choose the stones.

At this moment, due to Long Yan’s daring gamble, those who were selecting stone materials all stopped their selections, waiting to see the outcome of Long Yan’s daring bet.

“Who exactly is this youngster, to have such boldness.”

“Looking at it this way, it seems he might not really know what he’s doing, perhaps just seeking a thrill for the moment.”

“5 million Divine Stones is no small amount, this youngster truly is a prodigal.”

“Choosing 500 pieces of stone material in one fell swoop, I want to see how many treasures he can open up, and if he can’t open any, that would be hilarious.”

…

The crowd began whispering among themselves, none of them optimistic about Long Yan.

Long Yan walked into the area where the stone materials were placed, discreetly activating Material Mystery, infusing it into his eyes.

With a single glance, he could tell which stones contained treasures, and none escaped his gaze.

All he did was point randomly at certain stones; his speed was very fast and there was no apparent pattern.

Any stone material he looked on was collected by the middle-aged man.

In about the time it took an incense stick to burn, Long Yan had selected 500 pieces of stone material.

“Is he done choosing?

He really is a prodigal!”

The crowd shook their heads, even those masters well-versed in Pupil Technique couldn’t achieve such speed.

“Let’s open them all.”

Long Yan said to the middle-aged man.

The 500 pieces of stone material were piled up like a mountain.

The middle-aged man understood, then immediately picked up a piece of stone material and opened it directly.

Just as the stone material broke open, a burst of fiery light erupted from within, followed by a Fire Spirit Pearl appearing in front of everyone.

“A Red Fire Spirit Pearl, it’s actually a Red Fire Spirit Pearl!”

“Such good luck, this Red Fire Spirit Pearl is worth a hundred thousand Divine Stones.”

“The first piece and it’s a Red Fire Spirit Pearl, this youngster’s luck is not bad indeed.”

…

Everyone gazed at the Red Fire Spirit Pearl, all exclaiming in amazement.

It’s quite good that a Mid-grade stone material could yield a treasure like the Red Fire Spirit Pearl.

“The first piece of stone material yielding a Red Fire Spirit Pearl, congratulations!”

The middle-aged man said to Long Yan with a smile.

Right then, the middle-aged man began to open the second piece of stone material.

When the second piece of stone material opened, a sword tip became visible.

“A fragment of a High-Grade Divine Artifact, also worth at least eighty thousand Divine Stones.”

“Must say, this youngster’s luck is really good!”

…

Subsequently, when the third piece of stone material also yielded a treasure, the expressions of the people became somewhat spectacular.

If the first piece yielding a Red Fire Spirit Pearl could be considered Long Yan’s good fortune, and the second yielding a fragment of a High-Grade Divine Artifact could also be his luck, could the same be said when the third piece also yielded a treasure?

That wasn’t all, next, the middle-aged man opened ten consecutive pieces of stone material, each yielding a treasure.

People began to look at Long Yan differently, their gaze filled with astonishment and more so with admiration.

At this moment, the forehead of the middle-aged man was already covered in visible sweat.

If all five hundred pieces of stone material contained treasures, the Shengdao Alliance would suffer great losses.

Grudgingly, the middle-aged man continued to open the stone materials.

Stone by stone, each piece revealed a treasure.

Very quickly, the crowd had become numb, no longer questioning whether the stones could yield treasures, but discussing what kind of treasure would be revealed.

“It’s incredible, really incredible.

If I had such skills…”

Thin Monkey was excited, his eyes full of admiration, almost wishing he could immediately take Long Yan as his master.

If he also possessed such incredible skills, he would make a fortune in the future.

Little Demon was also excited; this time they really made a huge profit.

Time gradually passed, and soon soybean-sized sweat beads appeared on the forehead of the middle-aged man, his hands quivering slightly; with each opening of stone material, he silently prayed that no treasure would appear.

However, his prayers were in vain.

An hour later, the middle-aged man had finally, with difficulty, opened all five hundred pieces of stone material, which accumulated into five hundred treasures, leaving everyone swallowing their saliva in envy.

“Let’s tally them up; how much are these treasures worth in Divine Stones?”

Long Yan said to the middle-aged man.

With so many eyes watching, Long Yan wasn’t worried about the middle-aged man cheating.

The middle-aged man wiped the sweat off his forehead with his sleeve and began to tally the treasures, pricing each one.

It almost took a full incense stick’s time, but the middle-aged man went through all the treasures once and then said to Long Yan.

“A total of five hundred treasures, amounting to three…

thirty-seven-point-seven-two million Divine Stones.”

The middle-aged man swallowed hard before he could fully articulate the figure.

The moment he spoke it aloud, he felt a great deal lighter.

“Give me thirty million Divine Stones, and with the remaining seven hundred twenty thousand Divine Stones, I’ll buy another seven hundred twenty pieces of stone material,” Long Yan said.

Although most of the stone materials displayed here amounted to more than a hundred thousand pieces, mostly waste material, and even though he had already selected five hundred pieces, there were still plenty left, thus picking out another seven hundred twenty pieces shouldn’t be a problem.
