Hearing what Xu Que had said, Liu Jingning was stunned.

She wasn't shocked by Xu Que's bragging, but by his overconfidence.

He was so unlucky today, how on earth can he be so sure that he would definitely find something valuable in these stones?

"Xu Que, are you mad?! Do you have any idea what you're saying?" Buttface was surprised.

"Sh*t! You're lying to them again! I won't buy your words anymore! You're Xu Que, not Wang Sicong!"

Hearing this, Xu Que and Liu Jingning looked at each other and smiled.

"You're silly! Wang (王) is the family name of Wang Sicong, so it will still be Wang if you write it upside down!"

Liu Jingning shook her head and smiled.

Buttface was confused, then he shouted, "You're such a scammer! Next time I'm cheated by you, I'll also write my first name upside down."

"Stop talking nonsense! I'm sure all the stones will be good!" Xu Que said as he took out an X-ray machine from the System. It was the size of a man's palm, and with its help, Xu Que could see through a stone, the inside projected onto the screen of the System. Besides, it only cost him one thousand Acting Tough Points a day.

"Little Que Que, I don't think you should waste anymore of your Spiritual Stones. As far as I'm concerned, all the stones here are better than the ones you bought earlier, but still, there are some bad ones. Also, the stones here are much more expensive. I'm sure you can get something nice from them, but I'm also sure that what you get from the stones will be far less than what you will have spent."

Liu Jingning shook her head and felt rather worried.

After all, it wasn't clear if Xu Que would be unlucky again.

Xu Que was very calm and smiled. "You'll see! Buttface, follow me and play some BGM!"

"What? What did you just say?" Buttface was confused.

"BGM! Background music! Come, take this radio and play the song 'God of Gamblers'!" Xu Que said and directly gave Buttface a boombox that he had bought from the System.

Buttface was stunned and excited to see the boombox. He had never seen such a thing and was ready to chew on it.

Seeing this, Xu Que shouted, "You idiot! It's not edible! Now press that red button, I need to show them how wonderful I am!"

"You mean this thing can play music?!" Buttface grew curious.

So did Liu Jingning.

Xu Que smiled. "You're full of questions, aren't you? Be patient; you'll see how it works soon!"

At the same time, at the huge yard behind the arched doors…

The whole yard was as big as two football stadiums and surrounded by walls made of bricks.

In the center, there was a pond upon which tens of ancient pavilions in traditional Chinese style had been built.

Each one of the pavilions was a figure of great importance and represented an influential family.

Around the pavilions, there were many beautiful flowers and plants. Green mountains could be seen, and the murmuring of running water could be heard, as well.

Some scholars were playing the zither on the other side of the pond, and the sound of it could also be heard from time to time.

The atmosphere was tranquil and elegant.

In one of the many pavilions, there were a few old men in the Void Training Stage chatting happily.

"How nice this place is! The stone-cutting convention, under the cooperation of the Jiang family and the Gong family, is going to be a great success."

"To my surprise, apart from our Eight Directions Green Dragon Sect, the other three sects are also here, and the big three families in the Eastern Continent have sent many people here as well."

"Both the Jiang and the Gong families are bound to make a fortune from this convention. They've dug out many ancient stones from the Heaven Dragon Cave, and you know, everyone in the Eastern Continent will want to have a look at them!"

"The Heaven Dragon Cave is such a dangerous place, it seems that they took the stones from the outskirts, but still, to retrieve the stones, many powerful men in the two families were sacrificed."

"I'm so glad that Elder Qin is also here today. I'm sure you can find many treasures in these stones."

"Stop talking nonsense! We should not underestimate people from other influential families and factions!"

The old men were talking happily with each other while enjoying the beautiful sound of the flute and voices.

All of a sudden, the void at the entrance began to ripple.

The next minute, two shadows quickly passed through the entrance, accompanied by pop music that was echoing throughout the whole yard.

"Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!"

Everyone looked at the entrance and saw a handsome young man and a dog wearing black cloaks.

Both of them walked slowly and proudly into the yard.

Buttface was carrying the boombox on his shoulder and walking like a human. He looked extremely arrogant and cold.

Xu Que had the same hairstyle as Chow Yun-fat, and he had a jade ring on his hand. He was walking slowly while smiling and gently waving his hand, as if he was being welcomed by his fans.

Everyone was stunned by what they saw, but somehow, they all felt that the two looked rather cool.

Those who knew anything about music were terribly moved by the rhythm of the song, for they had never heard of this sort of music before and found it to be magnificent.

"Stop!" Xu Que suddenly said.

Buttface quickly turned off the music.

People were all drawn in by the boombox and looked at it curiously.

"Hello, everyone! I'm Chow Yun-fat, it's the first time for me to be here. If I've said or done anything wrong, come and f*cking hit me!"

What?!

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.

No one present responded to Xu Que. After all, they had all come from either a big family or an influential faction, so it would be very disgraceful for them to reply to such a reckless young man.

Still, some of the young men present looked at Xu Que coldly and sneered.

The next minute, Liu Jingning came.

Earlier, when Xu Que had told her he wanted to come into the yard looking like Chow Yun-fat with a boombox, she had decided not to go in along with Xu Que, since she thought it would be mortifying.

Seeing others' facial expressions, Liu Jingning immediately knew Xu Que had gotten himself into trouble again.

Liu Jingning sent a voice message to Xu Que.

"Little Que Que, can't you behave yourself for even a minute?!"

Xu Que stared at Liu Jingning and said, "Nonsense! I haven't gotten myself into any trouble, I was simply giving them a great show!"

At this moment, a young girl wearing an extravagant costume came forward and smiled.

"The stone-cutting convention is about to start, please follow me!"

"Thank you!" Xu Que answered politely.

Led by the young girl, Xu Que, Liu Jingning, and Buttface were walking to a pavillion at the edge of the yard.

According to the rules of the stone-cutting convention, someone who was in the Infant Transformation Stage or from an ordinary family had to sit in the pavillion that was in the yard together with three other people.

When the three arrived at the pavillion, they found there was already a young man and a young woman sitting there. Both of them were in the Infant Transformation Stage and were elites.

When they saw Xu Que, their faces immediately became gloomy.

The young woman angrily scolded the young girl.

"Wait! Are you mad! Why on earth did you bring these people here?! I can't possibly share the same pavilion as them!"

After hearing this, the young girl was embarrassed.

At this moment, there weren't many pavillions on the edge of the yard, and most of the pavilions were occupied by three people, or even five.

There had only been one pavilion that could accommodate Xu Que, Liu Jingning, and Buttface.

"Miss Li, I'm sorry…"

"Shut up! Although my family is not one of great importance, still, I can't possibly sit with these people! That's that!"

Hearing this, Liu Jingning and Buttface looked at Xu Que and thought this was happening because of Xu Que's bad fortune.

Xu Que wasn't angry at all. Instead, he smiled at the young girl and said, "Don't worry, I'm going to stay here and no one can ask me to leave! By the way, bring me some eels if you have any here—two will do."
