Chapter 169: Liking Trash
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When Xue Fanxin had picked up most of the crystals on the ground, Little Lei would punch the wall a few more times. The three of them continued to mine, mine, and mine.
With an efficient mining machine like Little Lei, the mining speed was like the speed of light. In less than an hour, they had already mined more than half the mineral vein.
An hour later, the Mystic Crystal White Tiger retuned from the depths of the mineral vein with a green crystal the size of a bird’s egg in its mouth. The green crystal was different from the crystals outside. It emitted a strange green light as if it was alive. There were some fine lines on it like human veins,
and one could vaguely see something flowing inside.
‘The Mystic Crystal White Tiger placed the crystal marrow in front of Xue Fanxin. After completing its mission, it acted cute to seek praise. “Awroo…”
Master, I’ve found the marrow crystal. You must remember my feast.
“alright, alright, I’ll fulfill my promise.” Xue Fanxin stroked the little white tiger’s head to express her praise. Then, she took the marrow crystal into her hand and observed it carefully.
“Ah Jiu, is this the marrow crystal?”
Ye Jiushang took a glance and said indifferently, “That’s right. This is indeed a marrow crystal. Judging from the quality, it looks okay. If it was given another few hundred years, it might have advanced to a blue crystal. But now, it looks like that’s impossible.”
“Why? Is it because I dug it out?”
“Even if it wasn’t you, its fate wouldn’t have changed. This mineral vein has already been discovered. Its outcome is destined to be mined, so there’s no chance for it to advance anymore.”
“You’re right.” Xue Fanxin felt fortunate that she could obtain the marrow crystal first. Otherwise, she would have been letting others off easy, especially Su Baifeng.
Anyway, she was not on good terms with Su Baifeng.
“Ah Jiu, what’s the use of this crystal marrow?”
“Same as the ordinary crystals, but the effect is dozens or even a hundred times stronger than ordinary crystals. Apart from that, the marrow crystals have another use: they can gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. If you cultivate while it’s on your body, it will be twice the result with half the
effort.”
“Wow… This is really a good treasure!” After Xue Fanxin understood the use of the marrow crystal, she held it in her hand like it was her treasure.
Little Lei came to douse her spirits. “A pitiful and low-level marrow crystal is trash. Only an idiot like you will treat it as a treasure.”
“I like this kind of trash a lot. Why don’t you find more for me?”
“There’s actually someone who likes trash?”
“That’s right, that’s right! I like garbage. Do you have it? If you have it, give it to me.”
Little Lei was just bored and wanted to talk to someone, relieving his boredom with an argument. He had been successful previously but got defeated this time. He could not win against Xue Fanxin at all.
Why was this idiot girl not playing by the rules?
Most people wouldn’t like trash, right?
Xue Fanxin did not care what Little Lei said. She only knew that she had hit the jackpot today and was very satisfied.
“Come, come, come. Let’s continue mining and picking up ores. The little white tiger can help too.”
“Awroo…” Would there be a feast if it helped?
“Yes, yes, yes. The more crystals there are, the more delicious the food will be. Haha…”
“Awroo…” Crystals, let’s go pick up crystals.
Just as Xue Fanxin and the little white tiger were about to get back to work, Little Lei’s expression changed. He said angrily, “There are annoying people mining outside.”
“What?”
At this moment, outside the crystal mine, the people from the Prime Minister’s Estate were quickly mining. However, the walls were too hard. They had to spend a long time digging out a few green crystals. Furthermore, they were incomplete, very small pieces.
Su Baifeng was also present at the scene and was looking at the crystal mine that had yet to be mined. Whenever she thought about how this crystal mine was about to be given to the royal family, her mood would turn sour.
“Hurry up and mine it. We only have a day. We’ll mine as much as we can.”
Even if she had to give the crystal mine to the royal family, she had to get some crystals.
A green crystal could be sold for an extremely high price in Heavenly Saints City. It was quite a fortune..
