Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The two heaven-stage martial warriors looked embarra.s.sed. 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.
“This is a good price. I’ll sell it to you. Let’s get to know each other,” w.a.n.g Teng smiled and agreed.
“Thank you, Mr. w.a.n.g Teng,” the lady replied happily.
She was expecting w.a.n.g Teng to raise the price, but he was generous and sold it to her directly.
“Mr. w.a.n.g Teng, my name is Xu Lanwan. Let’s exchange contacts,” the lady suggested.
!!
She knew that w.a.n.g 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 Lan’s ability, but she could sense that he was a heaven-stage martial warrior.
The relations.h.i.+p between An Lan and w.a.n.g Teng was strange. He wasn’t w.a.n.g Teng’s elder, yet he didn’t seem like his subordinate either. They seemed to be working together.
Moreover, w.a.n.g 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 w.a.n.g Teng wasn’t 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, w.a.n.g Teng wouldn’t reject her. He nodded and exchanged contacts with her. The lady paid him 8 billion GQC and took the seventh-level energy stone.
“Everyone, please pay 8 billion,” w.a.n.g Teng waited for Xu Lanwan to leave before he turned and spoke to Andrais.
“8 billion, 8 billion.” 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 w.a.n.g Teng and An Lan before saying coldly, “Give me your account. I’ll transfer the money to you.”
w.a.n.g Teng gave him the details, and the 8 billion was soon transferred.
He earned 16 billion within a few seconds. This was amazing!
“As expected of the Parkers family. You’re indeed rich. Shall we play a few more rounds?” w.a.n.g Teng looked at the balance in his account and found his superiority as a wealthy person again.
“Right, let’s play a few more rounds. This is just the start.” 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.
“You’re just lucky. Why are you boasting?” Chen Shu glared at w.a.n.g Teng and gritted his teeth as he spoke.
“So what if I’m lucky? I won in the end,” w.a.n.g Teng replied calmly.
“You!” Chen Shu was furious.
“I’m sorry, I won,” w.a.n.g Teng continued indifferently. “You have no chance.”
“You’re too arrogant. You only beat me once because of luck,” Andrais shouted in anger.
“Why don’t we play a few more rounds then,” w.a.n.g Teng said slyly.
“Chen Shu, choose another stone.” 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 w.a.n.g Teng to death this time.
w.a.n.g Teng was in no hurry. He sat on his seat and sipped some tea.
“w.a.n.g Teng, which one should we choose?” An Lan asked hurriedly.
“Don’t worry. We’ll choose one randomly after they’re done,” w.a.n.g Teng replied in a composed manner.
“Choose randomly again?” An Lan was speechless.
“How else do you want to choose?” w.a.n.g Teng asked.
“Nothing, we’ll do it your way as long as we can win.” 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.
“Really?” Andrais was elated.
“I have seen this ore once. There’s no mistake,” Chen Shu promised confidently.
“Good. If you can beat w.a.n.g Teng, I’ll forget about your mistake and even reward you,” Andrais said.
“Don’t worry, I have confidence.” Chen Shu nodded firmly.
“Are you done?” w.a.n.g Teng asked.
“Yes.” Chen Shu asked someone to bring a piece of ore that was the size of a watermelon. He patted it and said, “This is the one we chose.”
“That’s so small!” An Lan exclaimed.
Sometimes, bigger didn’t 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 w.a.n.g Teng’s eyes. He was shocked when he saw the piece of ore.
“This is…”
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, w.a.n.g 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 eyeb.a.l.l.s 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.
