The family head of the Tai family suddenly frowned and looked outside the crowd, where another group of people was approaching.
“Dad!” Le Yan’s eyes lit up as if she had seen a savior. She hurriedly ran over and grabbed the arm of a middle-aged man.
“Causing trouble as soon as I return. You never change,” the middle-aged man said, somewhat exasperated, as he glanced at Le Yan.
“Oops! My bad, my bad!” Le Yan adopted a childish demeanor in front of the middle-aged man, sticking out her tongue.
“Old man!” Sang Yi also approached, calling out to another middle-aged man in a casual manner.
“Give me some face out here,” the middle-aged man said in a low voice.
Sang Yi rolled her eyes and ignored him.
“I didn’t expect the Le family and the Sang family heads to come too.” The family head of the Tai family frowned slightly when he saw them.
“We’re not the only ones. The heads of the Ti and Yu families are here too.” The family head of the Le family smiled.
As soon as he finished speaking, another two groups of people approached from outside the crowd. The two groups were separated by a few meters, and there seemed to be a hint of hostility between them.
“Wang Teng, it seems these people are all here for your soul elemental crystal,” Gu Luo said, approaching Wang Teng with a malicious grin.
“Let them come. Are they planning to eat me?” Wang Teng remained remarkably calm and replied indifferently.
“With your background, they certainly can’t do anything to you, but it looks like there’s some drama coming up,” Gu Luo chuckled, looking like he was enjoying the spectacle.
“My background? What background do 1 have?” Wang Teng retorted.
“Keep pretending. Do you think no one knows?” Gu Luo rolled his eyes, speechless.
As they conversed, the several family heads finished their pleasantries and turned their attention to Wang Teng.
“So, you’re Grandmaster Wang Teng? I’ve heard Xiangxiang mention you early on. It’s a pleasure to finally meet you in person. Indeed, seeing is believing. Grandmaster Wang Teng’s demeanor is truly impressive,” the family head of the Yu family said with a smile.
“You’re too kind with your praise,” Wang Teng replied with a smile.
A few young people were standing behind the family head. They were the younger generations of the Yu family. At this moment, they were all curiously sizing up Wang Teng.
They had heard some things about Wang Teng from their family elders and were extremely curious about him. Now, they finally saw him in person.
Didn’t Yu San say that the other party was exceptionally skilled in the art of Force cuisine?
How did he suddenly become so proficient in prospecting?
Yu Xiangxiang greeted him with a smile and was immediately pulled aside by the younger generation of the Yu Family, who began whispering to her in low voices.
“Hmph!” The family head of the Ti Family snorted disdainfully. “I see nothing special about him. He’s just a little too arrogant for my liking, snatching the spot from our Ti Family and beating our people. He’s gone too far.”
Wang Teng glanced at him, too apathetic to engage in conversation.
The people from the Ti Family had harbored hostility toward him from the start, and there was no point in talking further.
“Father!” Ti Jing and Ti Du, upon seeing the family head of the Ti Family, seemed to find support and immediately called out.
“You two stand behind me. I’ll deal with this matter first, then I’ll deal with you two,” the family head of the Ti Family said coldly, showing no favor to them.
“Yes!” Ti Jing and Ti Du’s faces paled slightly, not daring to say much. They simply acknowledged and retreated behind the family head of the Ti Family.
“Grandmaster Wang Teng, I wonder if this soul elemental crystal can be sold to our Le Family. We not only offer corresponding rewards but also the friendship of our Le Family,” the family head of the Le Family spoke without beating around the bush, expressing his intentions directly.
It was evident that these family heads had also come for the soul elemental crystal.
For the secondary professions, spiritual cultivation was even more important than martial arts cultivation. Enhancing the Origin Of Soul meant elevating one’s spiritual level. However, treasures capable of enhancing the Origin Of Soul were exceedingly rare. Now that one had appeared, they naturally couldn’t let it slip away.
“Grandmaster Wang Teng, our Sang Family is also willing to offer corresponding rewards, as well as the favor of our Sang Family,” the family head of the Sang Family also spoke up. “In addition, our Sang Family is a mining-oriented clan with many mining-related records that are not available to the outside world. They would undoubtedly be of great help to you, a master in the field of mining. If you’re interested, we can lend them to you for reading.”
The crowd looked at the family head of the Sang Family with shock. He had truly spared no expense, willingly opening up the family’s collection of records to obtain the soul elemental crystal.
Those records were accumulated over countless years by the Sang Family and were invaluable. Such a gesture was not something an ordinary person could do.
Even Sang Yi couldn’t help but widen her eyes and look at her father. Was he crazy?
Was it worth it to go to such lengths for a piece of soul elemental crystal?
“Sang Ji, you…” The family head of the Le Family looked at him in astonishment, at a loss for words.
“What do you think? Le Pan, Tai Huai, can you still fight with me?” Sang Ji smiled and asked.
Tai Huai furrowed his brow, his gaze fixed on Sang Ji, unsure if he was just playing mind games or truly willing to go to such lengths.
Le Pan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “My Le Family can also open up our collection of records for Grandmaster Wang Teng but with a time limit… three days! No more than three days!”
Le Yan, Le Tun, and the others were speechless. They stared at him in astonishment.
“Damn it!” Wang Teng couldn’t help but swear, taking a deep breath.
These two family heads were so reckless.
They even made him somewhat tempted.. What should he do now? They were ruthless, damn it!
