This was the first spirit crystal for this year's stone gambling event. When people saw it, they were all excited, especially the Zhan Jia that won, they were almost unable to cheer.
The Lie Clan, on the other hand, was disheartened. Because of the differences between the two families, the stakes were very high. Ten mines were blocked, and this was one third of the property owned by the Lie Clan.
If he gave up on these mines, then they would be completely gone, thus the Lie Clan initiated the second round, Zhan Jia naturally accepted the challenge, and the stakes would still be ten mines.
At this time, Hua Ruge had already sat up from within Tuoba Rui's embrace. Because he was full, he could only quietly watch the situation.
Usually when she didn't speak, Tuoba Rui would also remain silent.
On the stage, the two of them picked their rocks again as Hua Ruge sighed and shook his head.
"Another loss?" Tuoba Rui asked.
Hua Ruge nodded his head: "It is indeed the people that they sent."
The outcome of the following competition would naturally not exceed Hua Ruge's expectations. The Lie Family lost another battle and lost another ten mines, causing Patriarch Lie's face to turn green.
However, Zhan Jia was grinning from ear to ear. This was a huge boon, and according to this situation, Zhan Jia would very likely explode today.
The Lie Clan finally recognized their strength and decided not to make their move in the next battle.
After the two matches ended, the Shui family sent someone to challenge Hua Ruge a seventh time.
Since the first day, the Shui family had not let go of Hua Ruge's bombs. According to Shui Yuyan's orders, they had to call for help several times a day, but they were suppressed by him.
After all, although Hua Ruge could not be angry at this scene, the Tuoba Rui beside her was not someone to be trifled with. If the Shui family were to die on the stage, it would be a great loss of face for them.
In the face of the challenge, Hua Ruge still said two words, "No."
The Shui Clan disciple was also used to it. He said a few more words, but in the end, the answer he got was still not the same, so he could only step down.
Seven days, she was unmoved even when facing seven provocations against Hua Ruge. Everyone present doubted Hua Ruge's capabilities, and even Hua Ruge, who was standing at the front, was a little shaken previously. They started to wonder if she was really lucky before to be able to get so many stones.
After the Shui Clan disciple went back, Shui Xiaoze shot a look at a middle-class clan member, then went up the stage after the Shui Clan disciple. The target of the call was still Hua Ruge.
Shui Xiaoze hadn't thought that Hua Ruge would actually be so calm before, but now that he knew it, he had no choice but to arrange for his own subordinate clans to go probe him.
"Our Zhang Family is challenging Patriarch Hua. I wonder if Patriarch Hua dares to accept our challenge?" The man said politely.
It could be said that ever since someone had died on the stage, everyone had become much more courteous to Hua Ruge.
Hua Ruge raised his eyebrows, but still spoke: "I've said it before, my condition hasn't been good recently, so I don't fight."
"It's just a small exchange of pointers. Patriarch Hua, you don't need to worry about it. Our bet can be a bit smaller." The man said again.
Hua Ruge smiled and shook his head: "The bet doesn't matter, but because I don't want to take action, you should go back."
No matter how calm she appeared, more and more people started to suspect her. It would be reasonable to say that she did not dare to fight against the Shui family Shui Yuyan, but even the middle-class families did not dare to accept the challenge.
That disciple didn't dare to say too much and went down.
After that, Hua Ruge did not want so many people to bother her, so he stood up and said: "I have been suffering from a small problem recently and will not accept the challenge in the next few days, I hope that everyone will not disturb me."
"Since Patriarch Hua has spoken, then please understand and don't force him." Patriarch Tian came out to smooth things over.
Some of the families who didn't want to offend others nodded their heads, indicating that this was how it should be. There were even some who thought that she was just playing around. Since she didn't want to compete, why did she want to participate in the stone gambling competition?
The next person to go up on stage was still the Shui Family, but they finally changed targets this time, and not Hua Ruge but the Lie Family.
Everyone thought that the Shui Family would directly target the Zhan Jia, they did not expect that they would actually target the weaker Lie Family.0
However, it wasn't unreasonable to think about it. After all, the Lie Clan was easily bullied, so why not bully them a little?
The Lie Clan would naturally not dare to accept Shui Yuyan's challenge. However, it would be too embarrassing to not accept, and would cause the entire city to laugh at it. Thus, the Lie Clan could only accept the challenge. However, he lowered his bet. He didn't dare to bet on the mine again. Instead, he bet on the ten shops.
Everyone was looking forward to this match. After all, the one who appeared on stage was Shui Yuyan, who hadn't been on the gambling arena for more than ten years. Back then, she had already produced quite a few good stones when she was still a child.
Everyone wanted to see what level the current Shui Yuyan was at.
The Lie Clan had changed someone else on the stage. It looked a little bigger than before, but he still lacked confidence when facing Shui Yuyan.
Shui Yuyan coldly looked at the stage, also speaking like an expert. He started to look at the stones everywhere he went, and only after seeing that there were more would he carefully check them, and even used his hands to probe.
Seeing that, Hua Ruge squinted his eyes, and said: "He looks very powerful."
Tuoba Rui was still lowering his head to make tea, not even bothering to look at it once.
"Oh right, how did she know you? You must have seen it in the Beidou Pavilion. " Hua Ruge suddenly thought of this question. When Shui Yuyan spoke, he seemed to understand Tuoba Rui's personality very well.
She was so upset that she forgot to ask about the two of them.
"When I arrived at the Beidou Pavilion, I was heavily injured. The Pavilion Master sent someone to serve me, so he sent her." Tuoba Rui replied indifferently.
These words made Hua Ruge even more curious: "So, not only have the two of you met, you've also come into contact with each other, and it's not even been a day or two?"
Even though she knew nothing would happen, she still felt a little uncomfortable when she said those words.
"No contact, probably not even speaking." Tuoba Rui said very calmly.
"Then how can I serve you?"
"Put the pills and tea in the room, I took them and ate them myself." Tuoba Rui pinched her face: "You little fool, have you forgotten about my habit of not letting women near you?"
"Ugh." Hua Ruge was startled, then pouted: "I did forget, but your habit is too strange, I can't even imagine it."
Only then did Tuoba Rui let her go, and said snappily: "Now, remember this clearly, other than you, I will not let any woman near me."
Hua Ruge nodded his head again and again, this time he was really worried, this man really made people worry.
"But why?" she could not help asking.
Tuoba Rui raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "Must you say it?"
"I want to hear it." Hua Ruge pouted and acted cute.
Tuoba Rui sighed helplessly, "Because I've always been beautiful since I was young. There will always be women who like to get close to me, I'm too detestable."
