Lingling shook the bottle and said, "I did it for this!"

"..." Nie Jingyu blinked a few times, not quite believing it, and then suddenly thought of something.

"No, you were going for that stone, weren't you? You still want to lie to me."

"Uh, no, you must have remembered it wrongly?" Lingling tilted his head and spoke nonsense seriously.

"Of course I did. You still want to deceive me."

"Hahaha...Is that so! But if the stone is not opened, I don't know what treasure is inside?" Lingling shrugged helplessly.

"Then go ahead and drive. I can help you."

"No way, what if a giant locust nest is discovered? It's so dangerous, with tens of thousands of small insect eggs moving in front of you, how disgusting!"

Ling Ling spoke vividly while gesturing, and at the end, he even shivered as he crossed his arms.

"..." Nie Jingyu raised his eyebrows. Just thinking about it gave him goose bumps, but he was not a fool.

"Hey, you promised me, don't use this excuse to fool me."

"Oh, why don't you believe it?"

As he spoke, Ling Ling took out the large stone from the ring.

The stone fell to the ground with a loud thud, causing the orcs to look sideways.

An ordinary large stone appeared in front of everyone, leaving the disciples of the Phoenix Clan completely confused for a moment.

"what is this?"

"Brother, you risked your life to go in just for a piece of stone?"

"Is there any mystery?"

They gathered around the big rock, touching it, knocking it, and talking about it.

"What do you mean?" Nie Jingyu looked at Ling Ling and asked.

"Crack the stone! As long as you can crack it, no matter what's inside, I'll give you half of it." Ling Ling pointed at the big stone and said calmly:

"As the saying goes, one cut can make you poor, another cut can make you rich. It all depends on your luck!"

After a pause, he said, "But let me be frank. If you damage the food inside, you have to compensate me."

“Why should I make amends?”

"If you cut something bad, you won't be compensated!"

"..."

There was nothing wrong with that. Nie Jingyu paused for a moment, but still said, "I did contribute anyway."

"You have contributed,"

Lingling glanced at Le next to her.

"He also helped. But I entrusted you with such a lucky and meaningful task as cutting the first knife. I treated you very well! Don't forget that this stone is mine. You two are just helping."

Seeing Ling Ling so calmly taking out the stone and asking him to open it, Nie Jingyu hesitated for a moment.

There must be something strange about the other party being so bold as to let me open it, but I couldn't resist the curiosity in my heart.

He always felt that anything that could attract the three tribes must not be an ordinary thing.

But what he didn't know was that, apart from Ling Ling, no one knew what this thing was.

The Giant Flame Crocodiles and the Fiery Lizard Earth Dragons simply went for the Flame Red Flower and the Red Dan.

Alas, I knew it was a trap, but I had to jump into it.

"Fellow Daoist Nie, do you want this luck? If not, I will give it to His Highness Le. Anyway, whoever of you opens the lottery can get half... Of course, if you don't open the lottery, you will get nothing." Ling Ling did not forget to explain the rules.

When Mu Qihua.Le heard this, he was a little worried that Ling Ling would suffer a loss at first, but after hearing the following words, he suddenly understood her intentions. He certainly didn't believe that there was nothing strange about the fact that she could be so calm in opening the stone.

He smiled sinisterly, "Little Bird, if you can't do it, this prince will come first."

Then, he took out the greatsword, put it on his shoulder, and showed off in front of him.

Nie Jingyu narrowed her eyes slightly, as if thinking about something.

Some disciples of the Fengque tribe were confused and went up to ask Nie Jingyu what was going on, but he did not answer. Instead, he observed the big rock in front of him.

I don't know where to start. If I cut from the side, there's no point and I can't see what's inside; if I cut from the center, I'm afraid of damaging what's inside... I'm really stuck.

Seeing each other's thoughts, Ling Ling and Le Yuguang looked at each other, and then the corners of their mouths couldn't help but curl up slightly.

"Have you thought about it? Do you want to go first or should I?"

Mu Qihua. Le Dajian tapped lightly on his shoulder and walked in front of Nie Jingyu, looking eager to try.

"Hmph!" Nie Jingyu snorted coldly, pushed him away and walked to the big rock.

"Little bird, you better be careful not to damage it!"

Seeing that he was still hesitant, Mu Qihua Le did not forget to put some pressure on him.

Ling Ling was so confident in letting him chop it open, betting that he couldn't chop it open. After all, this was a stone statue passed down from the Yuanwu Mountain! How could they break it so easily?

I knew it in my heart, but on the surface I had to pretend to be scared and kept taking steps backwards.

It seemed as if she would run away immediately if some insect nest or other horrible creature appeared.

Seeing her reaction, everyone subconsciously stepped back.

Nie Jingyu was speechless for a while.

I don’t know what he was thinking, but in the end he just pursed his lips, gritted his teeth, and was too lazy to consider the gains and losses anymore.

What he wanted to know was what was inside the stone, wasn't it? What was it that was so important to all three tribes?

He immediately raised his sword and cut it in the middle...

when--

After the collision of metal and stone, a blinding fire light was emitted, and a fierce recoil force pushed Nie Jingyu back repeatedly.

He was secretly shocked. He didn't expect that the stone skin would be so hard!

I don’t believe it!

So he stood up, jumped up, raised his broadsword and slashed down fiercely.

when--

Another dazzling flash of fire burst out, accompanied by a series of "crackling" sparks flying everywhere, leaving a mark of varying depths on the big rock.

"Wow! It's not even cut open!"

"Yeah, I've never seen such a hard stone before."

The orcs were whispering and discussing among themselves.

"Hey, we agreed to use one strike, but you only used two strikes?" Ling Ling pouted and looked unhappy.

"……You do it!"

Nie Jingyu put away his sword, retreated to Mu Qihua Le and said.

"I'm telling you, why are you so persistent? Do you have to open it here?"

"Humph! After you take it back, will I still have a chance to know what's inside?"

Nie Jingyu looked like he was too smart to be fooled by you, "Hurry up."

"So impatient?"

As he spoke, Le turned his gaze towards Ling Ling. After she gave him an affirmative look, he pretended to sigh helplessly and put the sword down from his shoulder.

"Okay, I'll satisfy your request."

"Hey, just aim at the mark I cut. Don't try to be sneaky."

Nie Jingyu looked so smart as if he was not going to be fooled by you.

After this reminder, everyone finally understood the mystery.

The stone was so hard that if Prince Le had not cut it precisely along the cut mark, but had cut it again, it would probably still have been difficult to split it.

In such a situation, it is inevitable that people will doubt whether they really intend to divide the treasure.

"I will do my best. If you have any other requests, please tell me at the same time."

Mu Qihua.Le naturally understood the other party's little tricks.

"That's good. Let's get started!"
