The old man indeed was not exaggerating.

He skillfully manipulated the stone-cutting machine, and in no time, reduced the size of the raw stone significantly.

However, just as he intended to continue cutting, he raised an eyebrow and froze.

"What's wrong? Why did the old man stop?"

Someone, noting the old man's abrupt pause, asked in confusion.

"I don't know, he just suddenly stopped. Did something go wrong?"

Someone next to him replied immediately.

"Don't speak. It seems that jade flesh is emerging from that stone. And it should be something valuable!"

Someone with keen eyesight stared intently at the rough stone beside the cutting machine, speaking with a bit of excitement.

"How could this be, how could this be! How can such a thing exist in this world."

Finally, the old man fixed his gaze on the stone in front of him, muttering to himself.

Yang Yan, on the other hand, smiled triumphantly:

"Haha! I have quite the eye, don't I? All those jade pieces were wrapped around this thing."

"See, I didn't lose out by paying five million US Dollars, did I!"

The old man suddenly burst into a crazy laughter, hysterically exclaiming:

"Emperor's Blood Jade, it's actually Emperor's Blood Jade! I never imagined I would see such a legendary thing in my lifetime!"

"And what's more, I unearthed it with my own hands! Now, even if I die, I can close my eyes in peace."

"Has that old man gone mad? Why is he laughing over there while cutting stones!"

Someone in the distance, apparently not hearing the old man's words clearly, spoke in bafflement.

Before he finished speaking, a gasp erupted from the crowd near the stone-cutting machine.

Following the gasp, people around started pushing their way forward non-stop.

"A treasure has emerged, a treasure has emerged! They uncovered Emperor's Blood Jade inside."

Someone couldn't help but shout loudly.

"Emperor's Blood Jade? What's that?"

Someone asked with more confusion.

"Whoa! What? They found Emperor's Blood Jade inside? How could that be!"

People who understood outside also exclaimed, then rushed forward in competition.

"Hey! Buddy, care to explain? What exactly is this Emperor's Blood Jade? It sounds quite impressive."

A man in a plaid shirt couldn't help but grab someone and ask as they made their way forward.

"What? You don't even know about Emperor's Blood Jade? Then what are you doing messing with jade?"

Hearing the question, the person whose arm was grabbed looked at him as if he were an idiot.

The man in plaid laughed awkwardly:

"Uh... I really am sorry about that. I haven't been in this field long, so I truly don't know what Emperor's Blood Jade is."

The man looked helplessly at the congested crowd, bitterly smiling:

"Alright! Since you're holding me up and I can't get through anyway, I'll just explain it to you!"

"You know Imperial Green, the best type of jadeite, right? Well, this Emperor's Blood Jade is a variant of Imperial Green."

"As they say, rarity commands value. Emperor's Blood Jade is much more precious than Imperial Green, to the point where many people have never even heard of it, let alone seen it."

The man in plaid thought for a moment, then added:

"I've never seen Emperor's Blood Jade either. But I heard that in ancient times, Huaxia's most famous jade, the Nephrite, was a kind of Emperor's Blood Jade."

"Of course, Emperor's Blood Jade doesn't mean the jade itself is blood red. It's just that whenever such jade appears, even an Emperor would spare no effort to obtain it."

In a daze, the man looked at the crowd in the distance, speaking in disbelief:

"No way, it's that valuable? In that case, didn't that person make a huge profit?"

The man in plaid suddenly laughed, saying disdainfully:

"It's not just a huge profit; such a thing is simply priceless. Forget five million US Dollars; even for fifty million, people would be scrambling to get it."

After another half hour of long waiting, the jade was finally fully revealed by the old man.

He looked contentedly at the red jade the size of an adult's fist and said to Yang Yan:

"What are you planning to do with this jade?"

Yang Yan smiled:

"I have plans for it. Last time, I saw another jade just like this, and I desperately wanted it."

"But because it was for a friend, I couldn't ask. Now, having this, I've fulfilled my dream."

Last time, when two Tomb Raider Captains brought the Nephrite to exchange for something with Qi Wutong, Yang Yan saw the whole thing.

That item was truly valuable!

If it weren't Qi Wutong, Yang Yan would have considered committing robbery to seize it.

"Have you seen other Emperor's Blood Jade?"

The old man was surprised when he heard Yang Yan's words.

"Yes, I have. However, it belonged to a friend, and its color was different from this one."

Since Yang Yan had obtained what he wanted, he couldn't help but feel happy.

Naturally, he became more talkative.

"Ah, what an eye-opener! In all my years, this is the first time I've seen Emperor's Blood Jade. I never thought someone so young had already seen it. Truly the younger generation surpasses the old!"

The old man said with a hint of admiration.

"Haha! You're too kind, sir," Yang Yan laughed, "It was merely by chance I saw it."

"Moreover, that item already had an owner. It's not like this one, which entirely belongs to me."

Not far away, Wang Hao looked at Yang Yan, who was chatting energetically with the old man, and said venomously:

"Damn it, why was there such a thing inside? This guy's luck is really off the charts."

In his view, that item should have been his.

If he had just persisted a little more back then, the Emperor's Blood Jade would surely be his now.

Of course, Wang Hao didn't believe Yang Yan knew what was inside and credited everything to Yang Yan's luck.

"Kid, don't get too cocky just yet. If you hadn't acquired this jade, it would be hard for me to act against you."

"Now that you've gotten such an extraordinary treasure, you won't need me to deal with you; someone else will bring you trouble."

Wang Hao looked at Yang Yan, speaking with resentment.

"Alright, I already felt my luck was good today, meeting such a spiritual young girl, and unexpectedly unearthing this Emperor's Blood Jade with my own hands. The old man feels very fulfilled!"

As he said this, the old man went directly to Zhou Hanyun and handed her a business card:

"Girl, are you interested in becoming my student? If you're interested, call the number above, and we can set a time to talk further."

"Ah!"

Upon hearing the old man's words, Zhou Hanyun suddenly seemed a bit flustered.

She turned her head and instinctively glanced at Yang Yan, clearly seeking his opinion.
