Just now, they were even mocking her about using the watermelon seeds to make up the shortfall. Who would have thought that she would actually do it.
That elderly master’s beard trembled. He already had more than a hundred thousand middle ranked stones, but he actually wanted him to ascertain how much these few watermelon seeds were worth? However, the guest had already requested it, so he could only look them over attentively and say,
The spirit stones are too small, but their purity isn’t bad. The accumulated spirit energy inside isn’t bad either. With those two factors combined, they should be worth two thousand middle ranked spirit stones.

The were worth two thousand middle ranked spirit stones. It was a vast difference from her previous amount of one hundred and eight thousand thousand. However, if she had not obtained that stone, she would have lost the gamble.

I’ve troubled Great Master.
Sima You Yue kept her watermelon spirit stones away as she turned to Hu Fang Fang and said,
Lady Hu, when you pay me, you should not forget the two thousand watermelon seeds. Oh, sorry, you should pay me four thousand.

Hu Fang Fang’s expression was dark as she turned around angrily.


Hu Ling saw the way his sister was acting and sighed. He took out two crystal cards and combined them together. Then, he handed one of them to Sima You Yue, saying,
This is seven hundred and four thousand. Please keep it well.

Sima You Yue kept the crystal card unceremoniously. At the same time, she did her own internal assessment of the siblings. They were able to take out seven hundred middle ranked crystal stones without batting an eyelid. This proved that they weren’t your average joe. They must have a huge background. She had no idea how powerful it was, but it was definitely far from average.

Third Sis, let’s head back. If Big Bro returns to find you missing, he might get angry.
Hu Ling said.
Hu Fang Fang had initially wanted to play some more, but when she heard him mention about her eldest brother, she could not help but shrink her head back. If he knew that she had lost a seven hundred thousand bet, he would berate her harshly. Only her second eldest brother would shield her this way.

Let’s head back then.
She held on to her brother’s arm as they walked out.
When they saw that they had left, those who gathered to watch the drama all dispersed. Fatty Qu and the others came over and wanted to see that stone within a stone.

This Lord, I wish to purchase your stone within a stone for three hundred thousand.
A male walked over and said directly.

Lord, ignore him. I will pay you three hundred and fifty thousand.


Lord, I will pay you four hundred thousand.

Sima You Yue looked at those around her and heard them clamouring about the price they would pay her, while feeling a little dazed.



Four hundred and fifty thousand. Whoever is willing to pay this amount, I’ll give it to him.
Sima You Yue shouted directly after seeing that the price had stopped at four hundred and twenty three thousand.
The few of them pondered it over. Four hundred and fifty thousand was rather steep. It was more than its valued price of a hundred thousand! However, this stone was still rather rare, and someone finally grit their teeth and paid for it.
After their exchange, Sima You Yue sold off that middle ranked stone and received another four hundred and fifty thousand. When added with the seven hundred thousand that she earned from the gamble, she had a total of one million, one hundred and fifty thousand.
Furthermore, she had only spent ten thousand eight on it. The profits were better than she imagined.
Fatty Qu and the others saw that Sima You Yue had obtained a good stone, so they wanted to try as well. Each of them chose two stones, spending one million. They were completely clueless on how to choose raw stones. However, they based it on their gut feeling. Some managed to choose good ones, while others got white stones. However, at the end of everything, they practically got back whatever they paid and earned a profit of a hundred thousand middle ranked crystal stones too. They were considered pretty lucky.

You Yue, how did you select that watermelon stone?
Qin Mo asked rather curiously.

Actually, I based it on gut feeling.
Sima You Yue said,
Although I paid attention to the outside and knew the inside would be watermelon seeds, the other surface of the rock had a rather glossy look. That was way I had a hunch that there might be something in there.

What she didn’t say was that her instincts were a lot more sensitive than others. If not for that, she would not have been able to sense that very minute difference.

Not bad, you got such good profits on your first gamble. You’re so much better than I was back then.
Third Mo said.

I’ve earned one million, but it’s not enough! Let’s continue.
Sima You Yue said.


Later on, she chose a few by herself and Third Mo helped her choose two more. When they opened them up, there were a few spirit stones. This gave Sima You Yue quite a few profits and she obtained ten million middle ranked stones.
When everyone saw how much fun Sima You Yue was having, the people in the stone pavilion felt their hearts ache.
Wasn’t she spoiling the market?
When Sima You Yue and the others were opening stones, that counter lady cast a glance towards a corner of the courtyard. After that, she heard that they had obtained another good stone and felt her heart ache again.
The spirit stones that Sima You Yue had opened was selling for five hundred thousand middle ranked crystal stones. Seeing how everyone just yelled out five hundred thousand without backing an eyelid, she thought about how much money she could have earned in the past and couldn’t help but sigh. It turns out that there were many rich people in this world. She was just a pauper in the lower class!
However, after selecting the stones one by one, she started understanding her theory more and more. The accuracy of which she picked her stones also got higher, and Third Mo couldn’t help but be in awe.
Just as Sima You Yue was going to pay for another raw stone that she had selected, a leisurely male wearing sky blue clothes walked over from behind.

Lord.
The shopkeeper of the stone pavilion bowed towards that male.
That male waved his hand and the people stood straight.

Lord, this is them.
The male by their side pointed to Sima You Yue and the others.



I was just wondering what kind of ability would shock my men senseless. It turns out that Sir Third Mo has graced us with his presence.
That male cupped his hand in salute to Third Mo.
Wu Lingyu and Qin Mo was currently talking to everyone with their backs to them, and heard him mention ‘Third Mo’. As such, they turned around and their eyebrows raised when they saw the person who had come.

We also have His highness from the Sage Pavilion and Young Master Qin. I, Liang, have been rude.
The blue clothed male saw Wu Lingyu and Qin Mo, and was extremely shocked. How did so many heavyweights turn up here today.
Everyone else was stunned as well. They were not too familiar with Qin Mo and the others, but Third Mo and Wu Lingyu were more well known. They were not your average people!

Liang Yu, what are you doing here?
Third Mo didn’t mind that he had been recognised. He was just wondering how he had bumped into him here.
The stone pavilion was a store situated on the periphery of the central region, and Liang Yu was someone of authority in the stone pavilion. They had met before in the central regions, and could be counted as an acquaintance.

Isn’t the auction held here? Everyone in the clan wanted me to come and take a look.
Liang Yu said,
Third Mo, why do you not head inside to choose? How could these stones be worthy of your attention.


I’m not the one choosing the stones, I’m just here to accompany a friend.
Third Mo said while looking at Sima You Yue.
Liang Yu looked at Sima You Yue. He looked like an extremely young male, how did he get Third Mo’s attention?

You Yue, look at you, even the young master of the stone pavilion is shocked.
Qin Mo said with a smile.



You Yue?
Liang Yu sucked in a breath. Could this be the You Yue from the Ximen clan that was killed off?
