On our wedding day, I castrated my fiancée's white moonlight.

"You're asking for it!"

Wang Yuan's smile froze!

Pointing at Ye Fan's pile of junk, he shouted, "Cut it up!"

The old stonecutter's knife fell!

The outer shell of the first piece of chalcedony peeled off, revealing a barren and empty interior!

"Hahaha!"

The men Wu Lie brought burst into laughter!

The old man cutting the stone remained expressionless as he picked up the second piece and cut it open!

The interior remains a dark, rocky landscape, completely empty!

"Two consecutive failures! Hahaha, Ye Fan, say something! Why aren't you saying anything?"

"The third one! I bet it's empty again!"

"I bet ten dollars I'll lose everything!"

Wu Lie and the others jumped up and applauded!

The third piece was cut open, and it was still empty!

The fourth, fifth, sixth... pieces are all empty!

Even if Ye Fan had four items after Wang Yuan cut them out, he might not be able to compare with Wang Yuan!

The seventh piece is still empty!

"Ha ha ha ha--!"

The laughter of Wu Lie and his gang echoed throughout the entire gambling stone hall!

Sai Luoli's heart sank to the bottom: 'It's over...did I think wrong? He doesn't know anything about gambling on stones!'

Jiang Fuyao closed her eyes, her heart filled with utter disappointment!

Wang Yuan had already picked up his teacup and was gently blowing on the foam; the outcome was already decided!

The old man simply closed his eyes to rest, as if everything before him was a foregone conclusion!

The old man cutting the stone continued to cut!

The eighth piece is empty!

The ninth piece! Still empty!

Only one piece left!

"This Ye Fan is dead meat!"

"The Great Xia's Northern King thought he was invincible in the Eastern Lands, but he never expected to be thoroughly humiliated upon arriving in the Central Plains!"

"The ancient clans of Zhongzhou still possess formidable resources! Ye Fan is doomed!"

Many people shook their heads; there was no suspense at all!

"Ye Fan! I still prefer the way you were stubborn just now!"

Why aren't you saying anything?

Wu Lie and the others were even more excited, as if they could already see Ye Fan's miserable appearance after his hands and feet were cut off!

The old stone cutter raised his knife and brought it down on the last piece of stone marrow, about the size of a fist!

Deep within the jade gambling den, Xuanyuan Jianjia tapped her fingertip!

The image reflected in the bronze mirror abruptly stopped and vanished!

"Tell the Wang family to spare Ye Fan's life! Banish him from Zhongzhou, and never let him set foot in Zhongzhou again!"

"yes!"

Shen He left quickly.

Inside the room, only Xuan Yuan Jian Jia's cold laugh rang out: "A son unlike his father, Ye Zheng Rong! You're no match for him!"

……

Only one piece of chalcedony remains!

"Ye Fan!"

Sai Luoli couldn't help but look at Ye Fan!

To her surprise, Ye Fan couldn't help but smile with a hint of amusement.

That smile...this guy...could it be?

Seroli's heart skipped a beat!

I couldn't help but turn back and look at the last piece of stalactite!

suddenly.

A faint, yet real, pale green light, like the glow of a firefly, emanated from the cut!

"Something came out?"

Wu Lie and the others' laughter stopped abruptly!

Swish-!

All eyes were suddenly fixed on that tiny point of golden light!

Wang Yuan frowned and put down his teacup!

The old man cutting the stone quickened his movements, and with a few strokes, large pieces of the stone skin peeled off!

A green light burst forth from its body, and the green light surged!

"This is……?!!!"

A green, cicada-shell-like object appeared before everyone's eyes!

Behind this thing, a small green grass even sprouted!

Suddenly, a figure rushed over, snatched the cut-out item with both hands, and exclaimed in shock, "Winter Cicada Divine Herb!"

"What?! It's actually the Winter Cicada Divine Herb!"

"Old Taoist, are you sure?"

The entire venue erupted in cheers!

Everyone stared at the person who had suddenly appeared—it was the drunken Taoist who had almost fallen into Ye Fan's arms at the beginning!

"The old Taoist priest wouldn't admit his mistake!"

The Drunken Taoist's gaze turned solemn, and all traces of drunkenness vanished from his body: "When the cicada is alive, it eats the seeds of spiritual herbs and hibernates underground!"

"Finally encased in the stone marrow, the seeds of the spiritual herb sprouted within its body, just like cordyceps, perfectly natural, making it extremely valuable for alchemy!"

"Young Master Ye, I'm willing to offer 100,000 spirit stones! I want this Winter Cicada Divine Herb!"

Someone immediately placed a bid!

Another old man sneered, "The Winter Cicada Divine Herb? You think you can buy it for 100,000 spirit stones? Dream on!"

"Young Master Ye, I am willing to offer 150,000 spirit stones!"

"Young Master Ye, I'm willing to offer two hundred thousand spirit stones!"

A middle-aged man, dressed in a purple robe, spoke.

Someone recognized him as a powerful member of the Ji family!

"Holy crap... 200,000 spirit stones?"

The scene erupted in cheers!

Ye Fan laughed: "Surprised? Unexpected?"

He deliberately chose nine empty marrow stones, all for this final, fatal blow!

"This...this...this..."

Wu Lie and the others were completely speechless, their faces ashen as if they had eaten shit!

They all turned around to look at Wang Yuan behind them!

Wang Yuan's face was extremely gloomy!

The old ghost beside him suddenly opened his eyes, trembling violently: "Did I misjudge him? This is impossible!"

"really!"

Sai Luoli was shocked and looked at Ye Fan in utter astonishment!

The latter showed no emotional fluctuation, acting as if nothing had happened!

"He really did it on purpose... Wait! My God, this is stalactite! How could he do all this on purpose? How much confidence and assurance must he have!"

Jiang Fuyao stood there, lost in thought!

Ye Fan actually won?

Amidst a chorus of discussion!

Ye Fan roared, "Wang Yuan! Speak!"

The chatter abruptly ceased, and the entire room fell silent!

Swish-!

All eyes instantly fell on Wang Yuan!

"Your dog! It was barking quite loudly just now!"

"Why are you all mute now? Young Master Wang! A candidate for the Holy Land disciple! Say something!" Ye Fan's gaze darkened, filled with coldness: "Would you choose to cut off your own hands or your own feet?"

"Or, what about the head on your neck?"

Take a step forward!

The eyes of all the martial arts practitioners present narrowed sharply!

Behind Wang Yuan, two ninth-level Martial Grandmaster elders spoke in grim voices: "Ye Fan! Don't go too far! Leave some room for maneuver, so you can meet again in the future!"

Ye Fan laughed wildly: "Hahahaha!"

"That's impressive! You even left me a way out! If I lost, would you have left me a way out?"

"It seems the Wang family, an ancient clan of Zhongzhou, is a man of his word!"

Boom—!

These words were like stirring up a hornet's nest, causing the entire room to erupt in a frenzy of discussion!

It's a small matter that Wang Yuan lost!

If this brings shame upon the ancient royal family of Zhongzhou and labels them as untrustworthy, then we're doomed!

thump!

Wu Lie reacted quickly, immediately kneeling on the ground!

He crawled over like a dead dog, accompanied by the few henchmen who had just spoken mockingly: "Bang bang bang—!"

He kowtowed frantically!

He was slapping himself in the face!

"Young Master Ye, I know I was wrong! I was just being rude!"

"Do whatever you want with me! I was the one who mocked you because of what happened at the Blood Chamber of Commerce auction house. I hold a grudge! It has nothing to do with Young Master Wang!" Wu Lie begged for mercy while slapping himself in the face.

This is a perfectly good dog!

Ye Fan laughed: "Fine! You can just kill yourself here, and I'll forgive you!"

"what?"

Wu Lie raised his head, his face swollen like a pig's head!

A flash of shock and anger crossed his eyes!
