Chapter 2891

Lord Ludo flipped his folding fan open, fanned himself, and cursed under his breath, “How ignorant.”

On the side, Fennel looked at Philip and whispered, “Did you offend him? Why is he always so

sarcastic to you?”

Philip stroked his chin, laughed drily, and said, “I’m not sure either. Maybe I’m too handsome…”

Pfft!

Lord Ludo spat the tea he was drinking and stared daggers at Philip. Then, he said, “There are nine

mines in Mystic City. Because of some incidents that modern society can’t explain, the locals call them

Mystic Mines. A lot of jade and ancient weapons have been dug up in Mystic Mine Three in the past

few days, so it’s in the limelight and has attracted many looters.”

Hearing this, Philip and the others nodded repeatedly.

According to Lord Ludo, it was nothing more than a mine that had unearthed jade and ancient

weapons.

“What about Mystic Mine Seven?” Philip asked.

Lord Ludo glared at him vehemently and said, “A bloodstone was dug up in Mystic Mine Seven three

years ago. The entire jade looked as if it was permeated with blood. It was red from the inside out. It

was rumored that people who have seen this bloodstone have gotten into accidents one after another.

They either committed suicide, were dying from illness, or went crazy. After that, Mystic Mine Seven

was closed. It was only opened recently.”

After waiting for a while, Philip asked anxiously, “Is that it?”

Lord Ludo shrugged and said, “That’s it.”

Philip frowned and said, “Where is this bloodstone now? ”

Lord Ludo said, “How would I know?”

Philip was taken aback before he scratched his chin in embarrassment.

“Let’s go!” Lord Ludo stood up.

Philip asked, “Where are we going?”

Lord Ludo said, “To Mystic Mine Three.”

After saying that, Lord Ludo left without waiting for Philip and the others to agree.

Philip exchanged a glance with Fennel. The latter looked at the former with a puzzled look and asked,

“You really didn’t offend him?”

Philip laughed dryly and followed without explaining. Very soon, the group arrived at Mystic Mine

Three.

Several streets had been formed nearby, all of which were selling jade, weapons, and other

collectibles. Quite many people were haggling in front of the street stalls.

“Isn’t this just a jade quarry? What’s up with all the mystery?” 17 followed behind and grumbled.

Lord Ludo replied, “You’re right. It’s a jade quarry. The entire Mystic City is the base leading to the

largest jade mine in the whole country. The jade here is of the best quality. There are two window

periods every year when traders and tourists from other places will come here to purchase goods.”

After Lord Ludo finished speaking, Philip nodded and asked, “Why did you bring us here?”

Lord Ludo rolled his eyes at Philip and said, “I brought you here to take a look. You can buy some if

you’re interested.”

Hearing this, Philip said, “I’m sorry to disappoint you, but we don’t have time to waste here. In that

case, please excuse us.”

With that said, Philip turned around to leave with Fennel and the others.

Lord Ludo glared at him fiercely and said, “Don’t you want to know the connection between these

mines and Mystic Cave of Mystic City? Don’t you want to know the location of the treasure of the

ancient sage that’s about to appear?”

Hearing this, Philip stopped in his tracks, looked back at Lord Ludo, and asked, “So why did you bring

us here?”

Lord Ludo said, “Stone gambling!”

‘Stone gambling?’ Philip was taken aback and refused. “I’m sorry, I don’t know how to do this. Besides,

it has nothing to do with our next plans.”

Lord Ludo smiled and said, “Sure it does! If you want to get the right to enter Mystic Cave, you have to

gamble on stones. You need to obtain recognition from the nine mystic mines and get the token before

you can get the opportunity to enter Mystic Cave.”
