Chapter 514: Gambling stones
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Everyone went off to rest. The courtyard that Qin Mo had left for them was big enough, so even though so many more people had co, it didn’t feel cramped at all.
Sima You Yue got Xin Feng to stay behind. Once everyone had left, she got him to take off his mask.
“Not bad, the scar on your face is quickly fading away. You can barely see it. However, since you have worn your mask for so many years, it rather unnaturally pale.” Sima You Yue looked satisfactorily at Xin Feng’s face, “After a mont of ti, you will be completely healed. When that ti cos, you will no longer have to wear a mask all day.”
Xin Feng didn’t mind wearing a mask or not. In the past, he never thought that there would be a day for him to recover his appearance and voice. He had already reconciled himself to the fact that he would have to wear a mask his whole life. Afterall, if the Zong Zheng Clan and the Yin Yang Palace knew, he would have more than a bit of trouble.
“Big SIs, this is for you.” Xin Feng took out a stack of crystal cards and gave it to her.
Sima You Ye took the crystal cards and looked at them, then turned back to him in shock.
“Where did you get so much money?”
One million middle ranked crystal stones- this wasn’t a small amount.
“Before things happened, mother gave it to .” Xin Feng said.
“You take it. Why are you giving it to ?” Si You Yue returned the crystal card to him.
“Of course it’s for you to use at the auction.” Xin Feng didn’t take it back, “You want to buy so many things. Although Jun Lan said that the marrow and tendon cleansing pill will auction for quite a bit of money, it’s always better to have more money. Anyway, you’re buying those ingredients for my sake. Are you not going to allow to fork out a bit of money for it?”
Sima You Yue saw how obstinate Xin Feng was, so she could only keep the crystal card.
“You’re not wrong. We do need quite a sum of money. We can’t depend only on the money from the Xuan Yuan Pavilion.” She said, “It’s best if we think of ways to earn more money.”
Jun Tian had co to look for her two days ago to give her three million middle ranked crystal stones. He said that they knew she was lacking cash, so they wanted to advance her a bit of money first. If her item was auctioned off for more money, they would give her more. If it was less, they would consider the difference as a loan to her.
Sima You Yue initially didn’t agree because she didn’t know how much her item would be auctioned off for. However, Jun Tian said that her items were valued around this amount and more, so she kept it.
Right now, with Xin Feng’s one million, she had six million middle ranked crystal stones. It was ten tis more than the cheapest item she had her eye on. There were many items this ti, and if others did not fight her for it, it was around the price of the money she had in her hands. However, if others needed it as well, and she had to fight for it, then it was unknown whether this amount of money would be enough.
“Not good enough. I still have to find a way to get more money.” Sima You Yue said, “If I’m really unable to, I have no choice but to borrow from Qin Mo and the others.”
She never liked borrowing from others. This was a habit that she had cultivated since?her previous life. However, if she didn’t have enough money when the auction started, she would have no choice.
“Actually, isn’t Third Mo here? You can just let him take you to gamble for stones. It’s a really fast way to get money.” Xin Feng said.
Hearing what he said, Sima You Yue slapped her forehead and said, “That’s right! How could I forget this!”
Gambling stones. She wasn’t a stranger to this. In the past, she had seen people gambling back on earth. It’s just that the things that people betted on inside the stones were jade, while over here the things they were betting on were spirit stones.
When she was Xin You Yue, she had seen people gamble on stones. However, she was just an onlooker. She had only followed them to take a look. She had seen soone obtain rare stones from a completely normal looking stone, then selling it for a fortune.
At that ti, she was just an onlooker watching a show. Now that she was going to do it, she was an expert going in.
“Do you want to go and look for Third Mo?” Xin Feng saw that his sister was so excited, and his eyes carried a trace of a smile as he asked.
“Okay.” Sima You Yue wanted to take Third Mo with her has well, since he was an expert on this too. However, she imdiately called Xin Feng, “Forget it. It’s getting late so we should go tomorrow. We can take Grandfather and the others along too for them to broaden their horizons.”
“Okay. I’ll just let Third Mo know first then, and ask if he has ti.”
“Go ahead.” Sima You Yue saw that Xin Feng wore his mask and left, so she stood up and left the hall as well. She knew where Bei Gong Tang’s room was and walked over, knocking on the door.
Bei Gong Tang opened the door and saw that is was Sima You Yue, so let her enter.
“Done chatting with your brother?” Bei Gong Tang closed the door and asked while sitting beside her.
“Yeah. I just gave him a check up.” Sima You Yue said.
“I really never thought that you would be able to find your relative so quickly. It’s truly sothing that’s worth celebrating about.” Bei Gong Tang said.
“That’s right. I’m really very happy. I thought that he had died, but I never expected that I would still be able to et him. It’s just that the condition of his body is a little troubleso.” Sima You Yue said.
“You’ll find a way. I believe in you.” Bei Gong Tang encouraged her.
Sima You Yue shook her head, saying, “Honestly, I haven’t yet thought of a way to truly eradicate his problem. However, I still have a few years of ti. I’ll definitely use this ti to think of a way.”
“Why don’t we ask your master and the others. We can see if they have any idea.” Bei Gong Tang said, “There are so many weird people in the word, there must be a way.”
“Yeah.” Sima You Yue smiled, saying, “Right, how co your mother didn’t co with you? How is she and your brother? Did the earth palace move against your Bei Gong clan?”
“My Mother and younger brother are really good now. They’re resting at ho now.” Bei Gong Tang said, “However, the Yin clan and the Bei Gong Clan and the Earth Palace has had tension as of late. You can even say that they’re already waiting with swords drawn. It’s precisely because of this that we were so late.”
“You didn’t act against the Yin clan, right?”
“Not yet. Because Falcon King has been living in the Yin clan for the past two days, so based on the relationship that the Yin clan had with the falcon king before, they don’t dare to act lightly.” Bei Gong Tang said.
“That’s good then.” Sima You Yue didn’t have much interest in this to begin with. However, since it affected those close to her, she hoped that it would settle itself nicely.
After this, the two of them spoke a bit about other things before she went to tell everyone about going to gamble on stones tomorrow. All who wanted to go were welco.
Everyone had co up from the continent below, so they had no idea what it ant to gamble on stones. However, when they heard from Sima You Yue that it was a gamble that could ruin or prosper a clan, they were imdiately interested and said that they would go along with her tomorrow.
When they heard that Sima You Yue was going to gamble on stones tomorrow, Qin Mo and Third Mo wanted to go with her. There was no need to ntion Wu Lingyu, since he would naturally go along as well.
As such, on the morning of the second day, the group of them left the left the place grandly.
Everyone on the streets was gathered in groups, and a majority of them were from the sa sects or clans.
After walking about for a mont, Fatty Qu finally pointed to a majestic main door and said, “Stone Pavilion. You Yue, is this the gambling place that the manager told us about?”
