The two heaven-stage martial warriors looked embarrassed. They wanted to get a cheap deal and buy this seventh-level energy stone at a lower price, but this lady had to spoil their plan.
âThis is a good price. Iâll sell it to you. Letâs get to know each other,â Wang Teng smiled and agreed.
âThank you, Mr. Wang Teng,â the lady replied happily.
She was expecting Wang Teng to raise the price, but he was generous and sold it to her directly.
âMr. Wang Teng, my name is Xu Lanwan. Letâs exchange contacts,â the lady suggested.
She knew that Wang Teng was only a planetary-stage martial warrior, but An Lan was beside him.
As a heaven-stage martial warrior, she might not be able to see through An Lanâs ability, but she could sense that he was a heaven-stage martial warrior.
The relationship between An Lan and Wang Teng was strange. He wasnât Wang Tengâs elder, yet he didnât seem like his subordinate either. They seemed to be working together.
Moreover, Wang Teng was the one in command. It might be hard to believe that a heaven-stage martial warrior would listen to the planetary-stage martial warrior but this was the truth.
Hence, she felt that Wang Teng wasnât a simple young man. He was worth her lowering her status to befriend him. This was why the other heaven-stage martial warriors treated him politely.
Naturally, Wang Teng wouldnât reject her. He nodded and exchanged contacts with her. The lady paid him 8 billion GQC and took the seventh-level energy stone.
âEveryone, please pay 8 billion,â Wang Teng waited for Xu Lanwan to leave before he turned and spoke to Andrais.
â8 billion, 8 billion.â An Lan felt more confident after he saw someone buying the energy stone for 8 billion. He started repeating the price happily.
......
Andrais glared at Wang Teng and An Lan before saying coldly, âGive me your account. Iâll transfer the money to you.â
Wang Teng gave him the details, and the 8 billion was soon transferred.
He earned 16 billion within a few seconds. This was amazing!
âAs expected of the Parkers family. Youâre indeed rich. Shall we play a few more rounds?â Wang Teng looked at the balance in his account and found his superiority as a wealthy person again.
âRight, letâs play a few more rounds. This is just the start.â An Lan agreed after tasting the fruits of the bet.
Andrais was burning in anger. He wished he could kill the duo on the spot.
âYouâre just lucky. Why are you boasting?â Chen Shu glared at Wang Teng and gritted his teeth as he spoke.
âSo what if Iâm lucky? I won in the end,â Wang Teng replied calmly.
âYou!â Chen Shu was furious.
âIâm sorry, I won,â Wang Teng continued indifferently. âYou have no chance.â
âYouâre too arrogant. You only beat me once because of luck,â Andrais shouted in anger.
âWhy donât we play a few more rounds then,â Wang Teng said slyly.
âChen Shu, choose another stone.â Andrais threw a cold glare at Chen Shu.
Chen Shu shuddered. He knew that he was dead if he lost again. An advanced-stage mining engineer was nothing to the Parkers. They had many different ways to make him silently disappear.
Chen Shu was unconvinced though. He gritted his teeth and turned to find a piece of ore. He swore that he must trample Wang Teng to death this time.
Wang Teng was in no hurry. He sat on his seat and sipped some tea.
âWang Teng, which one should we choose?â An Lan asked hurriedly.
âDonât worry. Weâll choose one randomly after theyâre done,â Wang Teng replied in a composed manner.
âChoose randomly again?â An Lan was speechless.
âHow else do you want to choose?â Wang Teng asked.
âNothing, weâll do it your way as long as we can win.â An Lan smiled.
They waited for half an hour before Chen Shu returned. There was a tinge of happiness on his face. He spoke to Andrais using voice transmission.
âReally?â Andrais was elated.
âI have seen this ore once. Thereâs no mistake,â Chen Shu promised confidently.
âGood. If you can beat Wang Teng, Iâll forget about your mistake and even reward you,â Andrais said.
âDonât worry, I have confidence.â Chen Shu nodded firmly.
âAre you done?â Wang Teng asked.
âYes.â Chen Shu asked someone to bring a piece of ore that was the size of a watermelon. He patted it and said, âThis is the one we chose.â
âThatâs so small!â An Lan exclaimed.
Sometimes, bigger didnât mean better. Some ores might be small, but they could possess a high value if they contained rare content.
Smaller ores like this one were a wild card.
The other party must be giving it his all since he dared to choose this. Either that or he was extremely confident.
Looking at their reaction, it was probably the latter.
A strange glow appeared in the depth of Wang Tengâs eyes. He was shocked when he saw the piece of ore.
âThis isâ¦â
He took a closer look in case he made a mistake. Then, he frowned. There was a spiritual herb inside this ore!
As a master mining engineer, Wang Teng possessed knowledge about this kind of ore.
Some ores were said to contain spiritual items. These spiritual items were sealed in the ores due to various coincidences. Some were dead while some were alive, including spiritual herbs, spiritual insects, and spiritual beasts. There might be ancient animal bones or eyeballs inside too. They survived countless years within the ores and absorbed the essence of the world. Finally, they turned into treasures, possessing incredible effects, and were known as gems.
