is really exciting! The Mysterious Sound Venerable! This woman is so mysterious!
I knew I was right!
Wang Teng glanced at Venerable Juqian’s expression and understood.
That Kunwu beast wanted to fool the royal family and nobles of the Great Qian Empire, and this Venerable Juqian wanted to fool him too.
Damn it, they’re all no good.
Only he is the most innocent!
Wang Teng felt contemptuous, and he felt that Venerable Juqian was somewhat unreliable.
Seemingly feeling a little uncomfortable under Wang Teng’s gaze, Venerable Juqian’s expression gradually became awkward.
“Ahem~” He coughed lightly and said, “Although no one has ever succeeded, tell me, isn’t it a good opportunity?”
“What kind of opportunity is it if it can’t be succeeded?”
Wang Teng said speechlessly, “And what does this have to do with allying with you?”
“Even without allying with you, I seem to be able to obtain that qualification.”
Venerable Juqian seemed to have expected Wang Teng to ask this, and simply said calmly, “If you ally with our Ji clan, we can help you pass that test.”
“You’re giving up?” Wang Teng raised an eyebrow and asked with some surprise.
“Yes!” Venerable Juqian replied decisively.
Wang Teng glanced at him, seemingly understanding the other party’s plan.
So many years have passed and the royal family and clans have not succeeded; perhaps they have already given up.
That’s why Venerable Juqian is using this as a bargaining chip.
It’s like an empty promise!
It sounds rather ridiculous, but Wang Teng is indeed somewhat interested.
“No! I can’t reveal that I’m interested in this.”
Wang Teng thought to himself.
Once he showed any interest, Venerable Juqian would surely seize the opportunity.
He didn’t take the Ji royal family’s assistance seriously at all.
The other party hadn’t passed the Kunwu beast’s test for so many years; why would they help him pass? It was absurd.
Wang Teng didn’t believe him at all.
These thoughts swirled in Wang Teng’s mind before he finally spoke, “This junior will go back and consider it carefully.”
Venerable Juqian frowned. He hadn’t expected that even after he had conceded so much, this kid still wanted to consider it.
Truly troublesome!
“Very well!”
Venerable Juqian didn’t want to appear too proactive.
He had already given them a lot of face today; continuing would make the Ji royal family seem too cheap.
“If you’ve made up your mind, you can contact me again.”
“My Ji royal family has already shown great sincerity. Other royal families may not be as sincere as we are. You should consider it carefully.”
With that, he directly ended the communication.
Wang Teng stared at the now empty room, falling into silence.
“Wang Teng, this Venerable Juqian doesn’t seem likely to be a spy for that king,” a round, chubby voice rang out.
“He certainly doesn’t look like it,” Wang Teng said. “But who knows if he’s in disguise?”
“Let’s put it on hold for now and check on the other royal families first.
” “Shall I continue contacting them?” the round, chubby voice asked.
“Sure!” Wang Teng also wanted to resolve this matter quickly to avoid any unforeseen circumstances.
The second family the round, chubby voice contacted was the Jiang royal family.
The next moment, a light screen appeared in front of Wang Teng, revealing a female martial artist inside.
This woman looked to be in her early thirties,
still possessing a charming and serene aura. However, her figure was extremely alluring, with curves in all the right places.
Wearing a white dress, she gave off a girl-next-door vibe.
She was quite captivating!
Wang Teng was stunned, not expecting the patriarch of the Jiang royal family to be a female martial artist.
He didn’t doubt whether this woman was indeed the patriarch of the Jiang royal family.
Judging from her aura, she was probably also an Immortal-level Venerable, which was beyond doubt.
“I am the patriarch of the Jiang royal family, named Jiang Xuanyin. Outsiders call me Venerable Xuanyin.”
The female warrior spoke first, a smile on her pretty face, her tone extremely gentle, like a spring breeze.
“Greetings, Venerable Xuanyin!” Since she was so amiable, Wang Teng naturally reciprocated with politeness.
One doesn’t hit a smiling face, after all.
However, his wariness of this woman was greater than that of the previous Venerable Juqian; he had a vague feeling that this female Venerable was not simple.
“Young friend Wang Teng, I congratulate you on being granted the title of King.” Venerable Xuanyin
smiled and spoke gently.
“Thank you, Senior!” Wang Teng laughed, “This junior is merely fortunate.”
Venerable Xuanyin’s gaze didn’t explicitly scrutinize him.
But Wang Teng’s soul perception was extremely sharp, and he could still sense that she was observing him.
Then she said, “I don’t like beating around the bush, so I’ll be direct. I’ve come to see if we can cooperate.”
Wang Teng was a little surprised: “Cooperate?”
Not an alliance, just cooperation?
There is a difference between these two situations.
“Yes, cooperation!” Venerable Xuanyin said.
“What kind of cooperation?” Wang Teng stared into the other party’s eyes and asked.
He felt that Venerable Xuanyin’s words were somewhat intriguing, and he didn’t know what the other party was up to.
What was puzzling was that these royal clan leaders really did have their own purposes.
“I can’t tell you what kind of cooperation it is for now.”
Venerable Xuanyin looked at Wang Teng and smiled slightly. “After all, this is only our first meeting. I don’t know your purpose, nor do I know which side you will ultimately be on.”
“So, I’m just here today to meet with you.”
Wang Teng looked at the other party thoughtfully, various thoughts flashing through his mind.
Compared with Venerable Juqian, this Jiang clan leader was really quite special.
What exactly did she want to do?
“Then, what else would you like to know, senior?” Wang Teng’s eyes flashed and he asked.
Venerable Xuanyin didn’t answer immediately, but instead asked, “You don’t seem to be in a hurry to accept the title of King.”
“That’s right.” Wang Teng smiled nonchalantly, “I always need to see the situation clearly before making any promises of easy money.”
“Otherwise, who knows what kind of trap I might fall into.” “
It seems you already know the situation in the Great Qian Empire.” Venerable Xuanyin’s smile seemed to deepen.
Wang Teng remained noncommittal.
Venerable Xuanyin asked again, “You’ve already allied with the Kalandish family, haven’t you?”
The same question, and the same confirmation.
Wang Teng’s heart suddenly skipped a beat.
It seemed the Kalandish family had already spread the word; they were showing that they would firmly stand on his side.
It was a well-known move!
“That’s right!” Wang Teng nodded.
“There’s one last question.” Venerable Xuanyin said, then hesitated for a moment.
“Senior, please ask.” Wang Teng’s expression remained calm.
“What are your plans after becoming royalty?” Venerable Xuanyin stared into his eyes and asked.
“Plans?”
Wang Teng was somewhat surprised, a multitude of thoughts flashing through his mind, before finally saying calmly, “This junior has no grand plans, only a desire to establish a foothold in the Great Qian Empire.”
This was one of his objectives,
his most obvious one.
Therefore, he wasn’t worried about outsiders knowing, and naturally had nothing to hide from this Venerable Xuanyin.
“Oh?!”
Venerable Xuanyin’s eyes were deep, his gaze never leaving Wang Teng’s, and he said, “That doesn’t match your rumored style.”
“What style do I have?” Wang Teng asked curiously.
How come he didn’t know what his style was?
“Wang Teng, you really have a reputation, your name has even spread to the Great Qian Empire.”
Roundy laughed in his mind, “I guarantee it’s definitely not a good reputation.”
Wang
Teng’s forehead immediately creased with black lines, feeling extremely helpless.
He felt his reputation had been ruined!
Roundy was one thing, that guy was completely into stirring up trouble.
But why did this Venerable Xuanyin also seem to be thinking, “You’re good at causing trouble?”
“No, do they have some misunderstanding about him?”
Venerable Xuanyin smiled and said, “You don’t need to worry too much, it’s not a bad reputation.”
“It’s just that in the eyes of outsiders, you always seem to be a genius who is unwilling to fall behind and has considerable ambition.”
“A considerable ambition?!” Wang Teng’s lips twitched.
Was this a compliment or a belittlement?
He couldn’t tell for a moment.
But none of that mattered. He wasn’t too concerned about other people’s opinions, just a little annoyed.
Yes, simply annoyed!
What did they mean by “considerable ambition”? He was just ambitious, okay?
Misunderstanding!
All a misunderstanding!
“This junior is actually a content person, do you believe me, senior?” Wang Teng said.
Venerable Xuanyin just smiled slightly, saying nothing, yet it seemed like he said everything.
Wang Teng sighed inwardly and said no more.
The conversation between the two ended there, and Venerable Xuanyin took her leave.
Wang Teng didn’t know what the other party wanted to do and was quite puzzled.
“This woman is so mysterious,” Yuan Gungun muttered.
“You think so too?” Wang Teng said.
“Otherwise, she hasn’t directly stated her purpose; instead, she’s been constantly asking you questions.”
A round, chubby figure appeared beside him, stroking his chin and pondering, “I feel she has much more to scheme against.” “
Perhaps even more troublesome than that Venerable Juqian.”
“Hmm.” Wang Teng nodded, saying, “Looks like we need to be careful of this one.”
“But she hasn’t allied with me, so it seems there’s nothing she can do to scheme against me, right?”
“Hard to say. The more that’s the case, the more careful we need to be.”
The round, chubby figure shook his head, “If she accidentally digs a pit for you, you’ll have nowhere to cry later.” “That’s true
. In that case, we should actually pay more attention to this Jiang royal family.” Wang Teng sighed helplessly.
“Hehe, pay more attention then.” The round, chuckled mischievously.
“What do you mean?” Wang Teng asked suspiciously.
He felt this guy’s smile was strange.
Was he thinking of something weird again?
“Don’t you think that Venerable Xuanyin is quite something?”
the round, chubby one teased with a smile. “Get to know her better; with your charm, you might just win her favor.”
“Get lost!” Wang Teng’s face darkened, and he said irritably, “How old is she?”
“What do you know? ‘A woman three thousand years older is a worry-free path in martial arts,'” the round, chuckled, continuing to urge him on.
Wang Teng was speechless. What the hell?
A woman three thousand years older is a worry-free path in martial arts?
Is that three thousand years old?
Maybe three hundred million years old!
“Don’t worry about these things. You should know that in the universe, no one cares about age, especially the powerful ones,”
the
round, chubby one continued to instill some universal values in Wang Teng, speaking as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
“Like Bingdis, she’s much older than this Venerable Xuanyin, and you two get along just fine, don’t you?”
Wang Teng’s lips twitched.
How could that be the same?
Bingdis had signed a soul contract with him.
Moreover, the other party was once a true god-level being, so age doesn’t matter at all—
no, in that case, Venerable Xuanyin, as an immortal-level Venerable, doesn’t seem to have any age problem either.
“Ahem~”
Wang Teng coughed, feeling that he had been completely led astray by Yuan Gun Gun.
What was he thinking?
He wasn’t about to use his looks to seduce an old woman who had lived for who knows how many years; that was simply not his style.
“Roundy, do you want to die?”
Suddenly, an icy voice rang out in the void, freezing the surrounding space.
“!!!”
Roundy’s entire body froze into an ice sculpture, his face still showing a look of terror.
Wang Teng looked at him and laughed inwardly.
Serves him right!
Of all people to talk about, he had to drag Icedes into it.
He was just asking for trouble.
“What are you laughing at?”
Icedes’s icy voice came again, sending a chill down Wang Teng’s spine, making him shiver involuntarily.
“Like master, like intelligent life.”
“Not a single one of them is any good!”
Wang Teng’s smile froze instantly; he felt completely humiliated, like an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire. Wait
, what do you mean “not a single one of them is any good”?!
You’re basically mocking him!
He hadn’t said anything; it was all Roundy talking to himself. How did he get blamed for this?
He was indignant!
Even if he was the owner of Roundy, he couldn’t possibly completely influence this intelligent life form.
“Icetis, you’ve gone too far,”
Wang Teng retorted. “This is all Roundy’s slander against me, what does it have to do with me?”
“He’s probably been browsing some unhealthy information on the virtual network lately, his brain is full of pornographic garbage.”
“Heh~” Icetis sneered, saying, “Do you think I don’t know what you did in the virtual universe before?”
Wang Teng’s facial muscles twitched slightly.
Oh no!
It seems I’ve exposed something!
I was so focused on blocking Roundy that I forgot to block Icetis.
“Wait! You didn’t peek, did you?”
Wang Teng suddenly realized something and asked in surprise.
Now it was Icetis’s turn to be silent.
If Wang Teng could see her face at this moment, he would see a thin blush rising on her body.
But sometimes silence speaks louder than words.
Wang Teng slapped his forehead and said helplessly, “Can’t you guys give me some privacy?”
“I didn’t see,” Icetis said coldly.
“See if I believe you or not.”
Wang Teng rolled his eyes. Still being stubborn even now, what’s the point?
“If you hadn’t seen it, would you be so agitated?”
“But speaking of which, I haven’t even settled accounts with you yet, and you’re already turning the tables on me. Is that right?”
