Chapter 238: Petrified on the Spot (11)

Watching Old Chen, who had been able to bluff Liu Chengfeng, kneeling before her, Su Luo felt a wave of complicated emotions.

If everything was as Old Chen had said, hadn't she gained a significant ally for nothing? Old Chen's strength was not low at all.

However, there was still one thing Su Luo couldn't quite understand, so she simply asked, "How did you recognize that I am the inheritor of the Purple Fire Elder's Legacy?"

She felt that she hadn't revealed any flaws.

Old Chen smiled bitterly and handed over a Jade Slip, saying, "The Purple Fire Elder left behind a jade jue back then, declaring that if his inheritor arrived, this jade jue would surely glow. And today, the moment you arrived, Young Lady, it truly glowed."

Could such a magical thing really exist? Su Luo took the blue jade pendant, looking it over left and right, up and down, examining it carefully. No matter how she looked at it, it was just an ordinary jade pendant.

Su Luo handed the Jade Slip back, "Then you should keep it safe."

"No, please, Young Lady, you should keep it." Old Chen looked excited, "Now that I have found you, Young Lady, this Jade Slip is useless to me. Perhaps it will be useful to you."

Unable to refuse, Su Luo had to accept it.

"These raw stones were left specifically for Master. I hope Master will not mind them." Old Chen had automatically changed his form of address, and there was a hint of respect in his expression.

"Mm." Su Luo was not pretentious and accepted his kindness quite naturally.

Since Old Chen was now one of her own, Su Luo did not hide anything from him. With a wave of her hand right in front of him, she stored all the raw stones into her space.

Old Chen's pupils constricted, and he stared at Su Luo in disbelief: "A, a Space Mage?! Master is actually a Space Mage?!"

Su Luo smiled faintly and glanced at him: "Is there a problem?"

"No problem, absolutely no problem. It's just that I didn't expect Master to be a rare and precious Space Mage." Old Chen said in disbelief.

To inherit the Purple Fire Elder's mantle, one must be of the Wood-Fire dual element. But besides that, her Master was also a Space Mage, which had almost gone extinct on the continent… What kind of powerful talent was this? Just thinking about it made him feel full of anticipation.

Originally, Old Chen had felt a bit awkward about having to serve a young girl, but after Su Luo revealed this ability, he was completely submissive.

He was looking forward to seeing what heights his young Master would reach in the future.

After storing all the raw stones into her space and letting the Little Divine Dragon enter to peel the crystal stones, Su Luo walked out of the basement with Old Chen.

Upon reaching the front courtyard, she discovered that it was rowdy and seemed very lively.

In the crowd, Liu Chengfeng stood there like a wooden chicken, staring blankly at the raw stone in front of him, refusing to believe it was real.

A skin-coated crystal stone! He had actually spent one hundred thousand gold coins to buy a green skin-coated crystal stone?!

One was worth several thousand gold, the other was worth one hundred thousand gold. The gap between them was so huge that Liu Chengfeng simply couldn't process it.

"How could it be like this… How… how could it be a skin-coated crystal stone…" Liu Chengfeng's bloodshot eyes stared fixedly at the fragments on the ground, muttering to himself, his entire person nearly shattered.

Several people around him shook their heads incessantly; some were relieved, some were sympathetic, and others were mocking.

"I didn't expect it to be a skin-coated crystal stone. Fortunately, I didn't bid on it just now, otherwise, I would have lost miserably by now." Old Master Li said with lingering fear, "That's why they say stone gambling is unpredictable; one cut can make you poor, and one cut can make you rich."
