382: Even a slight movement was the limit for those present.

The Stone Hanging event soon began. This time, it was obviously livelier than before, and the weight of the stones many people hung was much higher; basically, everyone started with Blue Stones.

At this point, if you hung too ordinary a stone, it would truly be a bit of a loss of Face.

Number A15, hanging five Qingshis for Meng Yanran!

Number B35, hanging ten Red Stones for Zhou Qingqing.

Number A...

For anything Red Stone and above, an official would announce it loudly, which greatly satisfied the vanity of men.

As the event progressed, the atmosphere at the scene became increasingly lively.

Among the ten, the one with the most stones hung was a woman named Jiang Nianxin.

The total value of the stones hung for her had already exceeded five hundred million Top-grade Immortal Crystals. At this rate, the top spot on the Top Ten Beauties list would undoubtedly be hers.

Su Chen looked towards Yue Ninger with great surprise. Although Jiang Nianxin's beauty was indeed top-tier, it was certainly slightly inferior to Yue Ninger's.

But why was there not a single person hanging stones for Yue Ninger?

Not even a single White Stone.

Strange!

During the first two rounds, many people were still hanging stones for Yue Ninger, but at this final moment, not a single person was hanging stones. This was inherently abnormal.

Su Chen's expression was extremely strange. He looked at Yue Ninger on the stage and saw her eyes were dim, her red lips pursed, and tears seemed to be shimmering in those beautiful eyes.

Her body was also trembling slightly, as if she were desperately trying to suppress her emotions.

Could there be some inside story?

Su Chen suddenly remembered that in the first two rounds, there were people who hung stones for Yue Ninger, shouting for her to be strong.

Could it be that something happened to Yue Ninger?

How strange.

In the frontmost seats, A1 and A2, sat two men with striking appearances and extraordinary temperaments. One of them said with an evil smile:

Brother Wang, this Yue Ninger is indeed not bad. Do you intend to take her?

Before coming here, she had already spread the word: whoever could hang a Five-Colored Stone and was willing to solve the predicament of her Family would have her submission.

The man beside him frowned slightly. He glanced at Yue Ninger, and after thinking carefully for a long time, he still shook his head.

Forget it. She is involved in too much; the cost is not worth it.

Although Wang Hao was quite interested in Yue Ninger, a single Five-Colored Stone was not difficult; it was merely one hundred million Top-grade Immortal Crystals.

But getting involved in the affairs of the Yue Family was not a small matter.

He was ultimately just a junior. Although he was only a step away from the Immortal Venerable realm, he did not have much substantial authority within his own faction.

It was not worth it to get involved in the power struggles of Immortal Emperor-level factions for the sake of one woman.

The latter heard this and shook his head regretfully.

It's just a pity for this little beauty, Yue Ninger. The Yue Family's problem is indeed difficult to solve; it is truly unnecessary to make an enemy of an Immortal Emperor for her sake.

The two only discussed it briefly before paying no more attention to Yue Ninger.

The affair of the Yue Family had long since spread throughout the area of the Kaiming Prefecture Empire. They were facing a devastating crisis, and it involved powerful Immortal Emperors, and even terrifying experts above the Immortal Emperor level.

Behind Wang Hao were experts above the Immortal Emperor level, yet he still chose to remain a bystander.

Because the cost was simply too great.

It was completely unnecessary.

However, they did not know that their conversation had been heard entirely by Su Chen. Although the two were using sound transmission, with Su Chen's cultivation level, using sound transmission in front of him was no different from showing off before an expert.

A Family crisis?

Su Chen frowned slightly. It seemed that Yue Ninger wanted to rely on this Bai Niao Pavilion event to help her Family overcome the crisis.

However, it clearly seemed quite difficult.

At first, he had only come to watch the show, originally thinking he might make a move.

But after looking around, Su Chen felt that playing around with a group of young juniors would be a bit of a loss of Face.

So, he did not intend to make a move and was just watching the excitement here.

Su Chen's age might be around ten million years, which counted as a junior in the Immortal Realm, but because his strength was too great, he did not consider himself a junior at all; his mentality was more that of the older generation.

And in his mind, Yue Ninger was clearly the best.

But if he hung stones for her, wouldn't that be equivalent to implicitly agreeing to help solve the crisis?

Su Chen shook his head. Whether he helped or not was his own decision; could she possibly force him?

Thinking of this, he spoke slightly, his voice transmitting calmly:

Yue Ninger, hang thirty Five-Colored Stones!

Everyone in the A-grade seats was the center of attention, and when someone spoke, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

But when they heard Su Chen speak, the entire venue instantly fell into a dead silence, where one could hear a pin drop.

Everyone looked towards Su Chen with an expression of extreme shock.

How many?

Did I hear that right?

Some people looked at the person beside them with a dazed expression, as if asking to confirm if they had heard correctly.

However, the latter was also full of confusion.

Thirty Five-Colored Stones, this was equivalent to three billion Top-grade Immortal Crystals. One must know that even what had been hung for Jiang Nianxin so far was not even close to five hundred million Top-grade Immortal Crystals.

This person hung three billion at once, six times more than Jiang Nianxin.

My God!

Someone swallowed their saliva, finding it hard to believe this.

That's three billion!

The key was another matter: the affair of Yue Ninger's Family was almost common knowledge. Now, hanging thirty Five-Colored Stones, did that mean he was going to help the Yue Family?

Many people immediately looked at Su Chen with solemn expressions.

Even Wang Hao was the same.

Deep in his eyes was full of doubt; why had he never seen Su Chen among the young generation of the Pingxuan Empire?

Although he could also take out three billion Top-grade Immortal Crystals, it would almost bankrupt him. Although it wouldn't be bad to win a beauty's smile, spending so many Immortal Crystals for this was indeed not of much significance.

However, Su Chen had hung thirty Five-Colored Stones without even blinking, which was truly too terrifying.

Duan Qingyou, who was in charge of hosting the event, was also stunned, looking at Su Chen with some shock, and it took a while for her to come back to her senses.

She hurriedly shouted aloud.

Number A9, hanging thirty Five-Colored Stones for Yue Ninger.

As the voice rang out, Su Chen did not waste any words and directly raised his hand with a wave. Three Spatial Rings appeared in front of Duan Qingyou, each containing one billion Top-grade Immortal Crystals.

In this Bai Niao Pavilion, almost no one would shout to hang stones indiscriminately.

After all, the Immortal Emperor experts of Qingluan City were watching; who would dare to fake hanging stones?

Unless they didn't want to live!

The next moment.

In the sky, one after another, Five-Colored Stones appeared. They were dazzling and eye-catching, emitting a brilliant light.

Small parts of Qingluan City could see this scene; this was the greatest display of prestige for the entire Bai Niao Pavilion.

At this moment, Yue Ninger also suddenly raised her head. In her originally desperate eyes, a few glimmers of light suddenly appeared, and she looked at Su Chen with eyes full of hope.
