Chapter 277: Vigilance and Endurance

The purple thorn token was letting out a dreamy and illusionary light.

The clerk stared at this token closely, his expression sluggish as he was lost for words.

After a long while, he came back to his senses and respectfully said: “Esteemed guest, please forgive me for being blind! Please wait a moment, I will go call the shopkeeper.”

The shopkeeper was a middle-aged white fatty who ran in flustering when he heard a purple thorn token holder appeared.

He immediately bowed deeply towards Fang Yuan: “Esteemed guest, your presence brings light to this little shop!”

Fang Yuan pointed at the rocks he chose and said indifferently: “I have chosen some rocks, I will have to trouble you guys to dissect them.”

The shopkeeper was stupefied when he looked at the rocks, how could they all be low grades?

He could not help quickly glancing at the clerk with a reproachful gaze: ‘Those with purple thorn tokens are all important characters, big clients, you actually let him choose these rocks?’

The clerk stood uneasily at the side, words stuck at his throat.

The shopkeeper bowed his head towards Fang Yuan: “Esteemed guest, you don’t need to worry about dissecting the rocks. Purple thorn token holders can have rocks dissected free of charge in rock gambling zone. After calculating the discounts for these rocks, it comes down to six hundred and fifty primeval stones.”

“I know the rock gambling rules, pay first before dissecting the rocks.” Fang Yuan nodded and took out the primeval stones from primeval elder Gu.

The shopkeeper swifty received the primeval stones and turned towards the clerk: “Go and call Great Master Duan, Master Huang, Master Zhang, Master Zhao and Master Ma here quickly.”

He then turned towards Fang Yuan: “Esteemed guest, rock dissection counter is inside, let’s wait there.”

The five old masters at dissecting rocks were resting at the small courtyard behind the rock gambling den. At their levels, they couldn’t be bothered with dissecting normal gambling rocks. Those in charge of dissecting normal rocks were their disciples or some young Gu Masters.

The clerk ran all the way to the courtyard and explained the purpose of his visit.

“Oh, requesting all five of us to go?” The five old masters’ gaze shone with radiance.

“Could it be someone bought those few super grade gambling rocks?” The old masters immediately felt their hands itching.

The clerk shook his head: “It is only some low grade gambling rocks.”

The old masters expressions changed into an unhappy one.

Great Master Duan snorted coldly.

Asking them to dissect low grade gambling rocks was simply an insult and contempt towards their identities.

But the clerk immediately followed: “The person has a very high status and possesses the purple thorn token. So the shopkeeper intentionally asked me to call all five masters!”

“What, purple thorn token?”

“Are you sure?”
