A Mortal’s Medicinal Elixirs

Chapter 69 Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors "Tia, just because William got lucky and got a few nice stones last tdoesn't mean he'll be as lucky this time. We need the real masters when it comes to stone gambling" Josh pointed at the table where he had been sitting. "See that? I managed to invite Misty Nightingale and The Oracle, two of the country's best stone-gambling experts to this event.

Tia was slightly surprised upon hearing that. "Wow, you actually invited two big shots. It looks like you're going to be betting big this time." He smirked. "Haven't you heard? The Jade King is finally letting us see what's in Courtyard No. 9 today." She seemed to recall something, so she said, "Yeah, I recall that the Jake King will only sell raw stones from. Courtyard No. 9 once every ten years. These raw stones have long mining histories, which means that they are also incredibly expensive. No wonder there are so many people today." "Exactly, I've prepared 450 million Igneus Talons today to get a few Stone Kings! Josh exclaimed.

The "Stone King" Josh was referring to were raw stones with a unit price exceeding 15 million. These raw stones had been mined a long tago, and each had its own name. Many Stone Kings were only exhibited once every few years.

Tia smiled but said nothing. She knew William was a skilled expert at stone gambling, and naturally, the skills of the Misty Nightingale and The Oracle were inferior to his.

"Well, good luck to you," she simply said.

Somehow, Josh laughed. "Tia, I can ask them to look out for good stones for you if you want." "Thanks," she replied firmly. "But I trust William's skills.” He sneered upon hearing her reply. "Stone Gamble Town can't be compared to this place. He won't be so lucky this tif it boils down to choosing a Stone King." William was just standing next to Tia and did not intend to say anything. However, his patience was wearing thin after hearing Josh constantly belittling him. So, he decided to throw his weight around. "Mr. Young, I'd advise you to get surgent medical attention soon. Otherwise, you'll be dealing with sserious late-stage complications." Josh's face turned pale in an instant; he was shocked. How does William know about my illness? A month ago, he pursued a famous model, who had an amazing figure, and he just could not get enough of her. After spending half a month with her, he felt that he wasn't feeling well; he had a painful sensation when urinating. So, he went for a medical check-up and was diagnosed with syphilis. He was currently undergoing drug treatment.

"You b*stard, stop talking nonsense! What late stage? What are you talking about?" Josh retorted angrily. However, William was unfazed even when facing Josh's angry explosion. He merely replied calmly, "I'm a doctor. I know what I'm talking about." Josh snorted. "You can deceive the Cromwell Family but not me." He then proceeded to leave the scene quickly after saying goodbye to Tia as if he was trying to hide something- Chapter 69 Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors William replied, "Syphilis." There was an instant look of disgust on Tia's face. "Well, thank goodness that I did not marry him. She was. glaring at Turner when she said that.

"Dad, tell Grandpa to not finda fiance anymore. I know that the Lloyd Family's interests are important, but nothing is more important than my own happiness" Turner did not refute her daughter. Instead, he said, " don't worry. Your Grandpa has taken notice ofafter what we did with Prosperity Villa. If we can achieve a brilliant result in this stone-gambling event, he will entrust sbusinesses to me." Tia replied. "But I don't see how you can stand a chance, Dad. First Grandma is too strong. All her sons control the core of Lloyds' businesses." However, he did not mind his daughter dampening his enthusiasm. “That's why I asked you to invest in medicine. Also, the money for this gambling cfrom ourselves." She was intrigued and asked, "Dad, have you made up your mind to go solo?" Turner nodded. "First Madam's family background is strong, and we owe much of our success to her family's support. So, naturally, it is unlikely that a son from the side branch of the family likewill be taken seriously." Tia's beautiful eyes flickered all of a sudden. "Dad, the investment suggestion recommended by William won't go wrong. William, tell my dad about our investment." So, William explained the situation to Turner, and Turner's eyes lit up upon hearing about the effectiveness of the medicine.

"So, it's not an exaggeration to say that we will earn a lot from this investment!" After thinking for a moment, he continued, Tia, let's invest the 450 million in your name. We have a 20% stake in Prosperity Villa-it's worth 600 million. I've already transferred the shares to Kane." Just then, a man in his forties walked toward them. He was a bald man wearing a brightly colored short-sleeved shirt and a pair of sandals.

Everyone stood up and greeted him “Master Tristan' respectfully. This person was none other than the Jade King, Tristan Xenon.

Tristan laughed, saying, "Thank you all for givingface and participating in this stone-gambling event. As per usual, everyone must pay a deposit of 15 million." As soon as he finished speaking, several beautiful ladies clad in traditional clothing approached the crowd. to collect the checks, Tia also wrote a check for 15 million and handed it to one of the ladies.

William asked softly when no one was around them, "What's this deposit for?" Tia replied, "Well, the minimum spend at the Courtyard No. 9 is 15 million, and you have to pay a deposit first if you want to gamble here/If your spending exceeds 15 million, then the deposit can be used directly as payment. Otherwise, you won't get a refund." He was quite surprised upon hearing that. "That's unfair." Tia shrugged. "It doesn't matter. We've prepared 300 million anyway." 2/3 23:00 Tue, 11 Jun Chapter 69 Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors Regardless, speople were unprepared and weren't unable to produce the 15-million deposit, so they were asked to leave directly. In the end, there were not many buyers remaining in the hall.

Once everything was settled, Tristan announced with a smile, "Well, everyone, let's go to Courtyard No. 9. Courtyard No. 9 was a very large courtyard with various types of jade placed on stone pedestals carved. from jade stone. These stone pedestals had pavilions on them. Each pavilion held only one raw stone to nstrate its preciousness. A sign was specifically erected outside each pavilion, indicating the quality "Everyone, we'll give you a 5% discount if your purchase exceeds 150 million, and a discount of 10% if it exceeds 300 million." Tristan grinned.

William started looking around and found that there were hundreds of raw stones here, the smallest of which weighed over 200 pounds, While the largest weighed over 20,000 pounds. He then found that the cheapest ore here was 18.2 million, while the most expensive was 283 million! Due to the limited funds, William was worried that he missed out on the best ore, so he decided to start examining those that cwith a unit price of over 45 million.

Among all the raw rocks, eight of NO them were the most expensive. They were known as the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors" The "Three" Sovereigns were the Heavenly Sovereign, Earthly Sovereign, and Human Sovereign, whereas the "Five Emperors" were the Red Emperor, Blue Emperor, Yellow Emperor, Black Emperor, and White Emperor.

The first piece of raw rock William examined with his x-ray vision was the Heavenly Sovereign-one of the Three Sovereigns-which was priced at 283 million! This particular ore was about 10 feet high, 6 feet wide, and weighed more than 15,000 pounds. There was a small incision around the size of a palm at the top of the raw rock. It showed that the inside of the raw rock was imperial glassy jade! Imperial green was the most prestigious color in jade, also known as emerald green, and was rarely found in the world. Anything that cin that color, including the imperial ice jade, was expensive.

Turner stared at this raw rock and commented, "It is said that this ore shook the world when it was first discovered, but somehow it has never been sold." William looked at the price tag and replied, "The price of 283 million is indeed high." Tia asked, "William, what do you think of this ore?" Send Gifts 30
