Empress: My husband is too strong, I can only lie down and relax.

Chapter 485: The Beginning of Stone Gambling!

Are you out of your mind?

Yun Feihong from Immortal Sword Mountain frowned.

This bet is absolutely outrageous!

"What, you, a true disciple of Immortal Sword Mountain, dare not?"

Seeing this, Gu Jiancheng sneered, then raised an eyebrow and said, "If you don't dare, then stop pointing fingers here. Who do you think you are?"

Gu Jiancheng showed Yun Feihong absolutely no respect.

He didn't care even if they were top disciples of Immortal Sword Mountain.

"you!"

Yun Feihong was shocked and furious.

"What, you want to make a move here? Then come on!"

At this moment, Ran Hongfu also crossed her arms and laughed.

"Second Senior Brother, don't be fooled! They're just trying to provoke you!"

Behind Yun Feihong, a group of disciples from Immortal Sword Mountain stepped forward to dissuade him.

If we were to start a fight here and it affected the subsequent battles, it would truly be a loss.

"Hehe, of course I won't stoop to the level of this pretty boy!"

Yun Feihong chuckled, then raised his head and said, "However, since you want to play, I'll play along to the end!"

"Hehe, okay, what about you?"

Gu Jiancheng raised an eyebrow and then looked at Lei Kuo.

"I!"

"Let's play then, who am I, Lei Kuo, afraid of?"

Lei Kuo was taken aback at first, then said proudly.

There was no other way; he was now in a bind. If he refused, the Thunder Sect would lose face!

"it is good!"

"You should preside over this, so that no one will disagree."

Gu Jiancheng looked at the middle-aged cultivator and said.

"Uh, you really want to play?"

But the middle-aged cultivator hesitated for a moment, then frowned and said, "He's quite skilled in gambling on stones. If you really lose, I'm afraid..."

The last sentence was transmitted from the middle-aged cultivator to Gu Jiancheng.

It was clearly a well-intentioned gesture, but Gu Jiancheng simply smiled, shook his head, and replied, "Don't worry, there's no problem."

"Alright, let's begin. The three of you may choose any three stones, and you have a time limit of one cup of tea!"

After saying that, the middle-aged cultivator took a step back.

The moment the sound faded, Yun Feihong and Lei Kuo rushed into the square to begin their search.

“Jiancheng, Yun Feihong is quite famous in this gambling stone market, you…” Ran Hongfu pulled Gu Jiancheng back and said in a deep voice.

If we lose, we'll lose all face!

"Don't worry, they are no match for me!"

Gu Jiancheng merely chuckled and then slowly stepped into the arena.

Immediately, Gu Jiancheng strolled leisurely into the square.

He wasn't in a hurry to choose a stone, because he had already looked at them all beforehand.

When the time it takes to drink a cup of tea was almost up, Yun Feihong and Lei Kuo finally came out after choosing their stones.

They agonized over this for a long time. Not because it was valuable, but because they truly couldn't afford to lose this time!

However, upon seeing that Gu Jiancheng still hadn't chosen a stone, the two couldn't help but chuckle.

"Heh, can't keep up the act anymore?" Yun Feihong sneered.

"However, it's too late for you to back out now. Today, you're officially calling me 'Grandpa'!"

"Oh, that's true, I must be your grandfather."

But then Gu Jiancheng shrugged and casually raised his hand to select three pieces from the pile of rocks.

Then, he came to the front of the crowd, looked at the middle-aged cultivator from Tiancui Tower, and said, "I've made my choice."

"Just these three?" The middle-aged cultivator frowned.

He really couldn't figure out how Gu Jiancheng made his choice, and wasn't that a bit too fast?

Moreover, these three stones looked really ordinary. They were small and had extremely rough surfaces, completely unlike the stones that had yielded treasures that we had seen before.

"Just these three!"

Gu Jiancheng nodded.

He appeared very confident.

At this moment, people gradually gathered around.

Because it is very rare for such jade gambling to involve bets.

They also wanted to see who would win.

But almost everyone was optimistic about Yun Feihong, because Yun Feihong was a regular at the jade gambling market.

As for Gu Jiancheng, no one had high hopes for him.

They had never even met Gu Jiancheng before, and the fact that they chose the stone so quickly seemed incredibly casual. It would be truly strange if it produced a treasure!

"Once you've made your choice, get started already! Stop dawdling!" Lei Kuo was already getting impatient.

Although he is not as good as Yun Feihong at gambling on stones, gambling on stones is still 70% about luck. Perhaps he will be very lucky today. If he wins, it will be a great honor for the Thunder Sect!

"Let's begin, which of the three would like to go first?"

The middle-aged cultivator looked at the three of them.

"Me first, me first!"

Lei Kuo was impatient.

He had a premonition that a treasure would appear for him this time!

"Boom boom boom!"

Immediately, he raised his hand and smashed the three stones of different sizes in front of him!

However, as the first and second stones shattered completely, no trace of treasure appeared except for rubble and dust.

This made Lei Kuo's heart sink.

But the moment the third stone cracked open, a dazzling golden light suddenly burst forth from it!

The light was so dazzling that it caused the entire audience to gasp in amazement the moment it appeared.

"A treasure has appeared?!"

"Wow, that's pretty lucky!"

"Judging by how dazzling the light is, its grade must be quite high!"

Amidst the gasps of surprise, Yun Feihong couldn't help but frown.

He thought to himself, "How could Lei Kuo be so lucky?"

Three out of one, that's already pretty impressive.

"Hahaha!"

"I told you, I'm the strongest!"

Lei Kuo laughed wildly and then took the thing wrapped in the dazzling golden light out of the rubble.

Everyone was astonished to discover that the object was actually a golden fruit covered with mysterious patterns, emanating a rich life force.

It seems to be an ancient seed?

At this moment, the middle-aged cultivator stepped forward, took the fruit, and after frowning for a moment, his expression changed slightly. "However, this is a high-grade Heaven-rank ancient medicine, the Golden Universe Fruit, which can replenish a large amount of lifespan and is quite valuable!"

"Congratulations, Young Master Lei Kuo!"

A celestial being of the highest grade!?

But everyone who heard this was shocked!

In that case, Lei Kuo has practically secured the victory!

Unless a top-tier celestial treasure or a Golden Immortal-quality item appears later, it cannot surpass this fruit.

But how easy is it to obtain such a treasure?

"Hahaha, it's your turn, you two! I'm waiting!"

Lei Kuo, now in a position of power, looked arrogantly at Gu Jiancheng and Yun Feihong.

The thought of being able to crush both of them under his feet in one fell swoop filled him with excitement!

"I come!"

At this moment, Yun Feihong could no longer tolerate Lei Kuo's arrogance.

He was quite confident about the three stones in his hand.

Immediately, he raised his hand and smashed the stones in front of him one by one.

However, just like with Lei Kuo before, after the two stones shattered, no precious light appeared.

Thus, only one piece remained.

Yun Feihong's face was now flushed, and his whole body was trembling.

Click!

But after the last stone shattered, all that remained was a cloud of dust and scattered rubble.

No, there's nothing there!

In an instant, the entire square fell silent.

The crowd looked at each other in disbelief, some even unable to believe their eyes.

Yun Feihong, who was considered the most promising, didn't get anything at all!?
