Chosen Man
Mystery Ocean Stone
The banquet was very luxurious.
The Zu family was very rich. Be it wine or dishes, they were all rare and extremely luxurious delicacies.
"Young Master Huo Sheng, I salute you!"
The important figures of the Zu family continued to toast to Huo Sheng, Qian Long, Sun Jian, and the others with warm and respectful attitudes.
Other than Shuoxue and Nie Tha, there were also many noble figures from the Zu family surrounding them. Like the sun surrounded by all the planets, they took the initiative to chat with Shuoxue and Nie Tha.
Only Yin Ying and Zhuan Long looked slightly cold.
However, since they came with the group from the Divine Sword Palace, no one dared to underestimate them.
As for Feng Zun, he did not care about this at all and drank himself.
Yin Ying and Zhuan Long were able to sense that the important figures of the Zu clan clearly disliked their presence, probably because they were considered demon cultivators.
However, the two of them were already used to it, so they would naturally not be angry about it.
"Young Master Huo, who are these three friends? Why can they travel with you?"
A beautiful girl in yellow clothes accompanied Huo Sheng with a sweet smile and looked at Feng Zun.
"They?"
A cute smile appeared on Huo Sheng's lips as he said, "They are only cultivators from the Han Empire.
The girl was surprised, "Could it be that the Divine Sword Palace wants to accept them as disciples?"
Huo Sheng sneered, "Our Divine Sword Palace does not accept disciples from the demon race."
The yellow-clothed girl then understood and lost interest in Feng Zun and the others.
Huo Sheng did not explain further.
He wished he could kill Feng Zun in his heart. How could he publicize how powerful Feng Zun was?
In fact, Qian Long and Sun Jian were also seen looking down on Feng Zun and the others.
So those great figures from the Zu Clan were certainly not fools. When they found out that no matter if it was Yuntian, Huo Sheng, or the others, their attitude towards Feng Zun and the others was extremely disrespectful, how could they not understand that Feng Zun and the others were merely insignificant figures?
As a result, they deliberately ignored Feng Zun and the others during this banquet.
In this cultivation world it was indeed very common that they would only respect honorable figures, naturally this was the attitude of a loser who had always licked those honorable ones.
With the great reputation of the Zu Clan, the only people they could treat with dignity were the members of the Divine Sword Palace!
Even if it is for those who do not like it, he must still admit it.
"Servant, take out the gifts I've prepared for our guests."
Zu Qingtian suddenly spoke, attracting the attention of everyone present.
Yuntian refused with a smile, “Gift? Brother Qingtian does not need to do this. We're just visiting here, so how can we receive a gift from you?"
Zu Qingtian laughed out loud and said, "Brother Yuntian, don't refuse. Some time ago, the miners from my Zuan Clan had discovered a set of Mysterious Ocean Stones in the depths of the Ocean Stone mine. This time, I specifically picked a few and gave them to you as a token of appreciation from the Zu Clan."
Mystery Ocean Stone!
Everyone's eyes sparkled.
Yuntian was shocked and touched by this gift.
In a short period of time, a group of maids brought a lot of fancy porcelain dishes into this room.
On each porcelain plate, there was a black-colored Ocean Stone that looked inconspicuous.
"Young Master, what kind of treasure is this Mystery Ocean Stone?"
Yin Ying was unwilling to ask through a voice transmission. This was the first time he had heard of the Mysterious Ocean Stone.
Feng Zun replied casually.
The Mysterious Ocean Stone was born from the spiritual essence of the ocean stone mine.
Each Mystery Ocean Stone, inside was a sealed treasure chest. Some of them do contain rare treasures, while others can also be empty without any contents.
In the black market of cultivation resources, they would even use the Mystery Ocean Stone to gamble, known as stone gambling.
After comprehending all of this, Yin Ying suddenly recalled something and said, "This Mysterious Ocean Stone is somewhat similar to the 'Mystery Lantern' of the Blind Old Man."
Feng Zun smiled. It was only a few Mysterious Ocean Stones that were not very valuable. How could it compare to the "Mystery Lantern" of the Mystery Lantern Clan?
At this moment, Zu Qingtian stood up and said with a smile, "I believe everyone knows that even though the Mysterious Ocean Stone is a rare treasure, yet not all of them contain precious resources."
“In addition, if we do not open the Mystery Ocean Stone first, then no one will know if any in it is the source of good or bad.”
He pointed towards the hundred year old Mystery Ocean Stone on the porcelain plate, his gaze sweeping over Yuntian and the others and he chuckled.
"The pleasure of stone gambling is to do it yourself. I'm not going to interfere with your choices. It would be better if everyone chose it themselves."
