The Demon King is back, leading adorable kids on an adventure around the world!
Chapter 18 Imperial Green, a Slap in the Face!
The roar of the machine continued, and the surface of the raw stone was gradually chipped away.
A vibrant, eye-catching emerald green suddenly burst forth.
The entire venue fell silent instantly, and everyone instinctively held their breath.
His gaze was fixed intently on the stone surface.
"My God! It's Imperial Green!"
Someone, without anyone knowing, was the first to cry out, and the deathly silence instantly shattered.
"Truly imperial green!"
The color is pure and clear; I haven't seen such high-quality goods in a long time!
"This young man's luck is just too incredible!"
"You can find this kind of treasure just by picking up a random piece of scrap; it's truly enviable!"
The sounds of conversation rose and fell, and the noise echoed throughout the entire venue.
Yang Wenbin's face instantly turned ashen, and he gritted his teeth.
Zuo Quan, standing to the side, panicked even more, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.
My heart sank instantly; I knew I was completely doomed.
Li Zhentian and his group finally felt relieved.
A sense of relief appeared on their faces; the tension that had been building for so long finally eased.
The owner of Feng's Jewelry quickly stepped forward, his voice urgent and excited:
"Mr. Luo, would you sell this piece of imperial green jade?"
I'll offer 30 million right now and stop here. Don't cut any further!
Luo Tian shook his head slightly, his tone leaving no room for negotiation:
"Not for sale."
After saying that, he turned to look at the stone cutter:
"Follow the line I drew, and then cut downwards."
The stone cutter was stunned, full of surprise, but he continued cutting.
The onlookers immediately erupted in uproar, shaking their heads and sighing.
"This person is incredibly bold!"
"They've already cut off the Imperial Green jade, why don't they stop? Do they have to keep cutting?"
"Why not make big money out of nothing and instead take risks?"
If everything collapses, I'll lose everything.
"Young in age, yet arrogant and proud."
They have absolutely no idea about the intricacies of jade gambling; they're just asking for trouble.
Many people secretly mocked him, even Yang Wenbin.
He also revealed a sinister sneer, secretly gloating.
In his view, Luo Tian was simply overconfident and courting death.
If it's cut too badly, the jade will instantly become worthless.
He'll regret it then.
A dozen minutes later, the outer layer of stone skin was completely peeled off.
A single, flawless, giant piece of imperial green jade.
Completely and intact, it was displayed before everyone's eyes.
Everyone present gasped in surprise, and exclamations of astonishment rang out.
Oh my god!
Such a large, intact piece of imperial green jade has almost disappeared in recent years!
"This is really a windfall, all thanks to this piece of material."
Its value easily surpassed 100 million!
A wave of excitement swept through the crowd, with exclamations of amazement echoing everywhere.
The owner of Feng's Jewelry spoke excitedly.
They were all a bit stuttering, so they went up again to raise the price:
"Mr. Luo, I'll offer 100 million."
No, 120 million!
Please transfer this imperial green jade to me!
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a powerful voice suddenly rang out:
"I'll offer 150 million!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man with a slicked-back hairstyle.
A middle-aged man with a mustache pushed through the crowd and walked in.
Someone in the room immediately recognized the other person and exclaimed in a low voice:
"It's Zhang Dafu from Zhang's Jewelry. I didn't expect even he would be alarmed!"
Luo Tian glanced at the two of them indifferently and refused them in a flat tone:
"I'm not selling it; I have other uses for it."
He had long planned to acquire this top-quality imperial green jade.
It was specially reserved for Niannian to refine protective amulets.
No matter how much money you offer, I won't sell it.
No matter how much these merchants fight over it, it's all in vain.
Zhang Dafu was still unwilling to give up and wanted to try to persuade him further.
A cold glint flashed in Luo Tian's eyes, and his aura instantly turned icy.
It was just a fleeting glance, a mere sweep of the eye.
Zhang Dafu shuddered violently, a strange sense of dread creeping into his heart.
It felt like being stared at by a prehistoric beast; the words that were on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back.
Not daring to say anything more, he turned away dejectedly and left the crowd.
Yang Wenbin stared intently at that piece of jade, the peerless imperial green.
His face was extremely pale, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"You win this round, but the competition isn't over yet!"
After saying that, he immediately took one of the remaining two raw stones from Zuo Quan's hand.
He shoved it fiercely at the stonecutter and coldly shouted:
"Cut it quickly!"
The stone cutter dared not delay and immediately began to cut the stone.
Not long after, another piece of glass-type jadeite in good condition appeared.
It's a bit bigger than the previous one.
Even so, the two pieces of glassy jadeite combined...
Its value still cannot compare to the Imperial Green in Luo Tian's hands.
Yang Wenbin's face grew increasingly ashen, his heart filled with resentment.
Seeing this, Luo Tian's lips curled into a mocking smile, and he spoke up to remind him:
"You only have this one last chance."
"It's none of your business!"
Filled with resentment, Yang Wenbin stuffed the last piece of raw stone into the hole.
Half an hour later, the last piece of raw stone was cut open.
It turned out to be a piece of top-quality mutton fat jade.
All three rounds of the competition have concluded, with Yang Wenbin's team possessing a total value of three pieces.
It's still far inferior to Luo Tian's piece of imperial green jade.
His entire face was as black as the bottom of a pot, extremely ugly.
Zuo Quan stood to the side, constantly wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
In his decades-long career, he had never lost so thoroughly.
Today, we have completely lost face.
"Daddy won! I knew it, Daddy's the best!"
Xiao Niannian smiled with her eyebrows and eyes curving into cute crescent shapes, her appearance charming and endearing.
Li Zhendong and his companions were also overjoyed; they had finally won.
The onlookers murmured their sighs and lamentations.
"Young Master Yang has truly brought this upon himself this time."
Full of arrogance, he went to challenge them, only to suffer a crushing defeat.
"Keep your voice down, this young master is narrow-minded."
Be vengeful; don't invite trouble.
Many people quickly lowered their voices and quietly took a few steps back.
He was afraid of displeasing Yang Wenbin.
Luo Tian's gaze fell directly on Yang Wenbin, his tone icy:
"A bet's a bet, it's time to fulfill the agreement, kneel down."
Yang Wenbin's face turned pale and then red, how could he bear to be humiliated in public?
His eyes flashed slightly, and he immediately shoved Zuo Quan, who was standing next to him, away.
"The raw stones were personally selected by Master Zuo."
"It has nothing to do with me; if anyone is to fulfill the contract, that's his responsibility."
Zuo Quan's face was extremely ugly, as if he had swallowed a dead fly.
However, due to Yang Wenbin's power, they dared not resist at all.
Left with no other choice, he could only kneel down in humiliation.
He raised his hand and slapped himself hard three times, leaving half of his face swollen up instantly.
When it all ended, Yang Wenbin's eyes were filled with resentment.
He glanced at Luo Tian, his eyes flashing with murderous intent, and uttered a harsh threat:
"Are you satisfied now? We'll see!"
After saying that, he turned and left angrily without looking back.
He didn't even bother to pay attention to Zuo Quan, who was kneeling on the ground.
The remaining onlookers dared not linger any longer and dispersed in all directions.
Fearing being blamed and getting into trouble, the huge quarry quickly became deserted.
Watching Yang Wenbin's departing figure, Luo Tian suppressed his surging spiritual energy.
His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
"Yang Wenbin, cherish the little time you have left!"
You won't see sunrises and sunsets much longer.
And your family, I wonder what you'll think on the day it collapses? Heh…”
