Just at this moment.
Outside the inn where Wang Shoujie was temporarily residing, a very ordinary-looking Flying Palanquin slowly stopped.
At first glance, the Flying Palanquin appeared quite common. Whether it was the spirit beast pulling the carriage, the material of the Flying Palanquin cabin, or its style, they were all the most common types in the city. Only those who knew what they were looking for would notice that the seemingly ordinary Spirit Wood was actually a very similar yet extremely precious type of wood. Even the Formation inscriptions carved on the Flying Palanquin cabin were extremely complex, indicating a clearly high level of protection.
Soon, the Flying Palanquin cabin opened, and a young Master dressed in a rather low-key and reserved manner stepped out of the Flying Palanquin. He walked into the inn and politely asked the innkeeper to announce his arrival to Young Master Shoujie, requesting a meeting.
This young Master was none other than Crown Prince Yuanzheng.
This had become one of his daily routines recently.
Even though his actions had already startled the entire Immortal Capital, causing everyone from peddlers to high-ranking officials to discuss him, he was still showing Young Master Shoujie immense respect.
And just as Crown Prince Yuanzheng arrived in the inn's front hall and was speaking with the innkeeper, a graceful female cultivator with an extraordinary aura also appeared in the inn's front hall.
This was none other than the Pavilion Master of the Divine Treasure Hall branch, Yao Yumei.
Compared to Crown Prince Yuanzheng, she was even more low-key. She came alone and didn't even ride a Flying Palanquin. If they hadn't happened to bump into each other at the entrance, no one would have even noticed her arrival.
Upon entering the inn, she also politely asked the innkeeper to convey her request.
The innkeeper, although usually a person of some standing, was nevertheless intimidated by such a display.
Such important figures, while not necessarily overbearing on normal days, would not truly care about a small person like him, let alone politely request something.
He had lived for most of his life and had never been so "honored."
However, the innkeeper was ultimately not someone who was clueless. He knew that the politeness of these important figures was not directed at him, but at the Young Master residing in the inn. He must not let it go to his head.
Suppressing all his wild thoughts, he bowed to the two distinguished guests and then turned to enter the interior of the inn, quietly acting as a messenger.
"Crown Prince Yuanzheng is quite persistent." Seeing the innkeeper walk away, Yao Yumei glanced at Crown Prince Yuanzheng, smiled faintly, and her tone carried a hint of mockery. "I'm sure Young Master Shoujie will be moved by you eventually."
Others might fear the Crown Prince of the Immortal Dynasty, but she was completely unafraid.
Not to mention the formidable system and heritage of the Divine Treasure Hall itself, even her own Tianrui Yao Clan was stronger than or equal to the Xinluo Immortal Dynasty.
Moreover, Crown Prince Yuanzheng's persistent behavior reminded her of a senior brother at the Divine Treasure Hall's internal academy during her youth, who, come rain or shine, would deliver her loving breakfasts every day for thirty years.
Unfortunately, she had never eaten a single meal and firmly refused to be conquered by such a Sticky Candy Tactic.
"As the saying goes, 'Sincerity can move mountains and rocks.'" Crown Prince Yuanzheng was neither anxious nor annoyed, as if he hadn't heard the mockery in her words. His expression remained serene and calm. "As long as Young Master Shoujie remains in the Xinluo Immortal Dynasty for a day, I still have a chance."
Just as he was speaking.
The innkeeper came trotting out, a delighted expression on his face, using a movement technique.
Wiping the sweat that had beaded on his forehead from flying too fast, he raised a hand and bowed to the two, excitedly saying, "Congratulations, Your Highness Crown Prince, congratulations, Pavilion Master Yao, Young Master Shoujie invites both of you in for a cup of tea."
"Thank you, innkeeper, please lead the way." Crown Prince Yuanzheng's face lit up, and he immediately slipped an Immortal Crystal note to him as a reward.
"Your Highness is too kind, too kind..."
The innkeeper swiftly put away the Immortal Crystal note and eagerly led the way, taking Crown Prince Yuanzheng and Yao Yumei together to Wang Shoujie's suite.
Inside the suite, there was no one, but a small spatial portal was flickering with light.
"This..." Crown Prince Yuanzheng's face showed a hint of surprise.
"This is a Portable Cave Abode." The knowledgeable Yao Yumei recognized it instantly, her expression filled with emotion. "Some important figures, when traveling, are not accustomed to staying in other residences and value privacy, so they like to bring a Portable Cave Abode. It's a good item, but the price... is much more expensive than ordinary Immortal Artifacts."
Crown Prince Yuanzheng was speechless for a moment.
Just for a bit more comfort and privacy, did one have to be so extravagant? Wouldn't it be better to use that money to acquire one or two more Immortal Artifacts to enhance the national strength?
Even without a detailed understanding, he could guess that this type of Portable Cave Abode likely had no combat power at all, at most only some protective ability.
These wealthy young masters truly treated money as if it were nothing.
At this moment, he understood that the happiness of truly rich people was beyond his imagination.
"Your Highness Yuanzheng, Pavilion Master Yao, please come in on your own."
As if sensing their arrival, Wang Shoujie's voice suddenly came from the Portable Cave Abode.
The two quickly composed their expressions and, as instructed, walked into the small spatial portal within the inn suite.
In the next instant, the scene before their eyes instantly turned upside down.
What appeared before them was a small space filled with lush greenery, birds singing, and flowers fragrant, as beautiful as a fairyland.
The space was not large; one could survey its entirety with a sweep of their Divine Sense, yet it held a hidden world within.
At the core of this space, a miniature Grade 6 Spirit Vein was arranged, and above the spiritual vein, plots of Grade 6 Spirit Field had been cultivated. There were not many spirit fields, but they were planted with numerous Spirit Plants, including Grade 6 Spirit Rice and various high-grade Spirit Medicines. Any one of them, if taken out, would be extremely valuable.
And in the more central part of the space, an exquisite courtyard was situated.
Next to the courtyard, a giant tree with a thick trunk and a massive canopy grew.
That tree was clearly not an ordinary Spirit Plant; its entire body was enveloped in a rich spiritual aura, and its green canopy extended in all directions like a luxurious parasol, casting dense shade that sprinkled dots of green light, adorning the entire courtyard like a fairyland.
Under the faint green light, even the air became incredibly fresh.
But these were not the most striking features.
The most striking were the two people sitting opposite each other, enjoying tea under the shade of the tree, within the courtyard.
Mu Yun Immortal Emperor, of course, was beyond words. Even without revealing her True Immortal's Might, the aura that emanated from within her was still not to be underestimated. She was like a resplendent peony in full bloom; even with simple clothing, it could not conceal her nobility and grace.
And Wang Shoujie, dressed in white, had an aura that seemed to be integrated with this piece of heaven and earth, with a sense of inexplicable harmony. The faint green light surrounding him made him appear like an Immortal Forest Monarch, elegant, tranquil, and ethereal.
Despite being only in the Divine-Transformation Realm, his aura was not inferior to that of Mu Yun Immortal Emperor in the slightest. Instead, it possessed a transcendent charm that captivated anyone who saw him.
Crown Prince Yuanzheng blinked before he reacted, hastily stepping forward to respectfully bow. "Yuanzheng greets Young Master."
Yao Yumei was more astute than Yuanzheng. She stepped forward and gracefully bowed to both of them, saying, "Yumei greets Young Master, and greets Immortal Monarch Tiange."
Although this Immortal Monarch Tiange considered herself the Young Master's maid, she was, after all, a mid-stage True Immortal Realm cultivator. As a Void Soaring Realm cultivator, she dared not be disrespectful. In fact, she vaguely perceived a subtle connection between this Young Master Shoujie and Immortal Monarch Tiange.
"Everyone is young, so there's no need for excessive courtesy." Wang Shoujie waved his hand indifferently, his demeanor gentle and relaxed. "Besides, in terms of age, Shoujie is probably much younger than both of you, and my cultivation is inferior to yours. Since you're here as guests, please take a seat."
Wang Shoujie's attitude was so humble, yet Yuanzheng and Yao Yumei dared not be careless. After expressing their thanks, they carefully took their respective seats.
Yun Tiange, with a sweet smile, personally poured tea for the guests.
Yuanzheng and the two immediately showed expressions of apprehension and humility, hastily taking their teacups with both hands and taking a sip.
While drinking the tea, neither of them thought much about it, but as soon as the tea broth entered their throats, a clear and refreshing sensation, like a gush of clear spring water, rushed directly into the depths of their Divine Souls.
In an instant, their minds became clear, and various insights into Heavenly Dao Law poured in, with many previously perplexing mysteries becoming clear and unobstructed as if enlightenment had struck.
This feeling gradually faded after several breaths.
Yuanzheng and Yao Yumei's faces were filled with a mixture of surprise and delight. They couldn't help but look at each other, disbelief in their eyes.
In such a short time, they had gained so much.
"This, this is true Wu Dao (Enlightenment) Immortal Tea!"
Yao Yumei, being from Divine Treasure Hall, was knowledgeable and quickly realized.
Enlightenment Tea was already rare, and most existing Enlightenment Tea Trees likely had impure bloodlines, with potential only to advance to the eleventh or twelfth rank, producing only what could be called ordinary Enlightenment Tea.
Only a few major powers possessed thirteen-rank or higher Wu Dao Immortal Tea trees, capable of producing true Wu Dao Immortal Tea. Due to limited production, ordinary cultivators, let alone drinking it, probably hadn't even smelled it.
Crown Prince Yuanzheng was even more in a trance.
He had often heard his Ancestor say that he once tasted a small cup of Wu Dao Immortal Tea at a True Immortal conference, and the taste was truly unforgettable and wonderfully indescribable, making him envious and craving it to this day.
Yet, he never expected that Young Master Shoujie, who seemed aloof and distant, would actually serve Wu Dao Immortal Tea to entertain them. What did this mean? It meant that this kind of Immortal Tea was just Young Master's everyday drink.
At this moment, his heart was bleeding.
The life of the wealthy was truly beyond the imagination of a poor Crown Prince like him.
Yao Yumei also paused for a moment, then hurriedly rose and offered a gift. "Young Master Shoujie, Yumei has been working hard these past few days to apply to the Tianrui Branch Hall Master for the [Divine Treasure Hall VIP Token]. If Young Master has any needs, you can send someone with this token to any Divine Treasure Hall branch or pavilion to make a request, and we will do our best to provide assistance within the rules."
Divine Treasure Hall VIP Token?
Crown Prince Yuanzheng was shocked again. He looked at the plain black token with envy in his eyes.
He didn't expect the Tianrui Branch to act so quickly and decisively, directly issuing a VIP token.
One must know that the Divine Treasure Hall had only issued five such VIP tokens in the vast Tianrui Sacred Dynasty, four of which were in the hands of several Saint Venerables and the Holy Emperor.
Immortal Dynasty Imperial Families like theirs were absolutely not qualified to obtain a Divine Treasure Hall VIP token. Most importantly, this VIP token was not registered by name. Anyone could take it to the Divine Treasure Hall to make a request, and even if Young Master Shoujie was unwilling to reveal his identity, it would not affect his use of the VIP token.
"Pavilion Master Yumei has a kind heart." Wang Shoujie nodded slightly. "Shoujie is out training, and having this token will make things much more convenient."
It seemed he was quite satisfied with this gift, even his form of address became a bit more intimate.
Yun Tiange obediently took the VIP token for Shoujie and put it away.
"Immortal Monarch Tiange." Yao Yumei keenly sensed the difference in Wang Shoujie's attitude, and her heart secretly rejoiced. She then respectfully took out a pile of gifts, pushed them towards Yun Tiange, and said with a smile, "These are all nourishing and beautifying tonics. I specifically selected them; they are all of the finest quality. I hope you won't mind them."
Every woman loves beauty.
Yun Tiange naturally highly valued her appearance and skin. Upon taking a look, she found that they were indeed all top-tier beauty Holy Products. Her attitude towards Yao Yumei immediately became much more amiable and friendly, and she pulled her aside to chat.
Seeing this, Crown Prince Yuanzheng also hastily took out the prepared gifts: "Young Master Shoujie, this is a small token of my Ancestor's regards."
They were two small boxes, one containing the recipe for [Silver Yan Gold], and the other a small, heavy piece of [Red Sun Sacred Iron].
As he spoke, he humbly explained the properties of both Silver Yan Gold and Red Sun Sacred Iron.
He especially emphasized the Silver Yan Gold recipe. This was the lifelong painstaking masterpiece of his Ancestor, and even the Tianrui Holy Emperor was unaware of its existence.
"This Silver Yan Gold recipe is quite interesting." A look of interest seemed to flicker across Wang Shoujie's brows. "Perhaps it might be of some use to me."
Yuanzheng was overjoyed.
Their ancestors and descendants had carefully selected the treasures, and they had indeed suited Young Master Shoujie's taste.
He was about to speak again, but Wang Shoujie raised a hand to interrupt him: "However, I've always disliked owing favors. Your Xinluo Immortal Dynasty probably has something you want me to help with, right? Your Highness might as well be truthful, I need to weigh it before making a decision."
The implication was that if he couldn't help, he wouldn't even accept the gift.
Yuanzheng's heart tightened, and his initial joy instantly dissipated somewhat. But at the same time, he felt even more awe and trust towards Young Master Shoujie.
Immediately, he meticulously recounted the accumulated grievances and conflicts between the Xinluo Immortal Dynasty and the Xianwu Immortal Dynasty.
"The Xianwu Immortal Dynasty has gone too far, I hope Young Master can help." Crown Prince Yuanzheng stood up, bowed deeply, and said, "Yuanzheng, on behalf of the myriad people of Xinluo, I thank Young Master."
Wang Shoujie's face was calm and unperturbed, his fingers gently tapping on the table, as if deep in thought.
After a moment, he shook his head and said, "This is an internal matter of the Tianrui Sacred Dynasty. I am young and inexperienced, how can I interfere at will? Your Highness Yuanzheng, please take the items back."
Yuanzheng's face tightened, and he hastily said, "Young Master, is there no other way? If we allow the Xianwu Immortal Dynasty to continue bullying us like this, holding our spiritual food lifeline, in the long run, I'm afraid our Xinluo Immortal Dynasty will gradually decline, and eventually..."
"If it's just about solving the shortage of spiritual food and the sales of mineral ores and metal ingots, it's not too difficult..." Wang Shoujie pondered slightly. "It just requires quite a bit of effort."
Yuanzheng's face immediately lit up with joy. He bowed deeply and earnestly said, "I hope Young Master Shoujie will save our Xinluo. In the future, our Xinluo will definitely remember Young Master's great kindness."
"Alright, let me think about this matter first." Wang Shoujie gently picked up his tea and took a sip, his gaze lowered to the teacup. "Once I have made proper arrangements, someone will come to find you."
Yuanzheng understood. He immediately rose, thanked him repeatedly, and then took his leave.
However, he left behind the [Silver Yan Gold] recipe and ten catties of [Red Sun Sacred Iron]. Wang Shoujie tacitly accepted this, as if he had already thought of a solution.
Another hour or so passed, and Yao Yumei, who had been "conversing" with Yun Tiange, also took her leave. The Portable Cave Abode became quiet once more.
Yun Tiange returned to her seat, casually picked up a Spirit Fruit and took a bite, then smiled, "Yao Yumei, in her attempt to please us, intentionally or unintentionally revealed a lot of information. The trouble in the Xinluo Immortal Dynasty is a bit bigger than we imagined. But trouble is also an opportunity, and nourishment for our Shenwu Human Clan to grow stronger."
"The Holy Domain's power structure is complex, with many overt and covert whirlpools." Wang Shoujie said calmly, "What we need to do is be extremely cautious and avoid capsizing."
"Shoujie, you really shouldn't underestimate someone who has lived...ugh, let's not talk about that." Yun Tiange changed the subject. "After this matter is settled, you'll accompany me to the Tianrui Sacred Dynasty for some fun, to see if we can find any forgotten Immortal Scriptures, Holy Artifacts, or the like to bring back."
Faced with her audacious words, Wang Shoujie rolled his eyes.
Immortal Scriptures and Holy Artifacts were supreme treasures even in the Holy Domain, and each had its owner. How could it be so simple to pick up forgotten ones?
...
Time flew by, and another month passed in a flash.
Since Crown Prince Yuanzheng met Wang Shoujie, he had been patiently waiting at the Crown Prince's mansion, but this wait lasted a full month.
Just as he was growing increasingly anxious, almost unable to resist visiting Wang Shoujie again.
Two mysterious women secretly came to visit Yuanzheng, saying that Young Master had sent them to conduct business.
Yuanzheng was overjoyed and hastily invited them into the Secret Chamber, where he brewed tea to entertain them.
"This concubine, Ji Yue'er, specifically handles miscellaneous matters for Young Master."
Once they were alone, Yin Snake Devil Princess Ji Yue'er lifted her hood, revealing a mesmerizingly beautiful and charming face, and bowed slightly to Crown Prince Yuanzheng, greeting him.
Her signature red hair, fair skin, and serpent eyes made her beauty intensely striking, the kind of stunning beauty that leaves a deep impression at first sight.
As the earliest Void Soaring Realm expert to pledge allegiance to the Wang Clan, and skilled in various Illusion Arts, she was a highly utilized expert among the Wang Clan's retainers.
Standing beside Ji Yue'er was a beautiful woman with a somewhat aloof demeanor, whom Yuanzheng found inscrutable, feeling extremely dangerous and powerful.
Seeing Yuanzheng look over, she nodded slightly and also greeted him: "My name is Jiang Yuling. I'm just a hired fighter who works for money. You don't need to concern yourselves with me."
"So it's True Monarch Yue'er and True Monarch Yuling, both of you are welcome."
Crown Prince Yuanzheng dared not neglect them and hastily returned the bow.
"Your Highness, no need to be so polite. Let's get straight to the point."
Ji Yue'er did not stand on ceremony with him. She immediately, according to Wang Shoujie's instructions, began discussing the specific details of the Spirit Rice trade with Crown Prince Yuanzheng.
Currently, Xinluo was short on spiritual food, while Shenwu World, through years of preparation and accumulation, as well as Wang Shoujie's continuous improvement of new grain varieties and increased production, had a Spirit Rice output that was incomparable to what it once was. With one side lacking food and the other having it, negotiations naturally proceeded smoothly, and a deal was quickly struck.
As for Jiang Yuling, the reason for her presence here was self-evident: she was too poor, too poor. Having cultivated to the mid-stage Void Soaring Realm at a young age, her annual resource consumption was astronomical.
It was said that the Great Liang Imperial Family was almost forced to sever ties with her, and the Northern Region Prince's Manor avoided her whenever possible. The Cold Moon Jiang Clan also feared her...
There was no choice. Fearing poverty, Jiang Yuling could only cling tightly to the wealthy Wang Shoujie. As long as she could earn huge sums of money, she would not hesitate to become Wang Shoujie's concubine.
Unfortunately, the competition for the position of Wang Shoujie's concubine was truly fierce; it seemed even an Immortal Emperor was interested in participating.
Left with no choice, Jiang Yuling had to appear in the group as a "worker," at least Wang Shoujie offered very generous salary conditions.
As Yuanzheng discussed the details with Ji Yue'er, he observed the two beautiful women out of the corner of his eye. His heart was somewhat awed, and he admired Young Master Shoujie even more.
Not only were his subordinates beautiful women, but they also had distinct styles, each with their own unique charm. It seemed that Young Master Shoujie, despite his outwardly refined appearance, was quite a philanderer in secret.
Meanwhile.
Wang Shoujie and Yun Tiange, whom Yuanzheng had labeled as quite philandering, were leisurely strolling through the Immortal Capital.
Their current strolling grounds were the famous [Cloud Merchant Market] of the Xinluo Immortal Capital.
Where there were people, there were cloud merchants; where there were cloud merchants, there were all sorts of strange and wonderful things and opportunities.
In the Cloud Merchant Market, there were legends of finding overlooked Dao Weapons, even Immortal Artifacts, manuals, and various rare treasures.
Such places existed in Changning Guard in earlier years.
Wang Shoujie and Clan Retainer Wang Zhong had even found a Hive there. Later, to support his family, he also took Li Ci to many markets in various places.
But now, Changning County was becoming more and more developed, and these semi-scamming markets were gradually being shut down.
Strolling through this place brought back many memories for Wang Shoujie. However, though he had plenty of money, he wasn't foolish and wouldn't casually buy these trashy items. He wasn't Wang Anye, who could just pick up Immortal Artifacts anywhere.
This time, he only came along because Yun Tiange insisted on browsing.
There was nothing he could do. Yun Tiange was stubbornly convinced that she could find some overlooked treasure.
The facts proved that even an Immortal Emperor was helpless against such street scams. In just half a day, she had already lost several High-Grade Spirit Stones, purchasing more than ten items suspected of being self-corrupted Immortal Artifacts.
"Come and see, come and see!"
In a corner of the Cloud Merchant Market, a shifty-looking old man sat behind his Stone Gambling stall, shouting to the people coming and going: "Authentic Spirit Stone Raw Ore from the Grand Beginning Dao Palace! If you're lucky, you can get an Immortal Spirit Stone! Hey, hey, little girl, want to try your luck?"
If Wang Lici were here, she would surely recognize this scruffy old man as the greedy and stingy Cai Youdao.
Speaking of Cai Youdao, after Wang Lici bought up all the high-quality Spirit Stone Raw Ore, there were very few good goods left in the entire batch of Spirit Stone Raw Ore. To compensate for his losses, he dared not mix with Sacred Dynasties and major powers anymore. For the past few years, he could only move between remote Immortal Dynasties, trying to recoup some of his capital.
Once his inferior Stone Gambling was exposed, he would simply move to another place.
And so, after years of diligent swindling, only two or three tenths of that batch of Stone Gambling remained.
Of course, approaching young girls along the way and asking if they were Reincarnated True Immortals was still his usual style.
"Young Master, I think I'm on a lucky streak lately." Yun Tiange said somewhat unwillingly, "Why don't we try Stone Gambling? If we get an Immortal Spirit Stone, we'll make a fortune."
"Right, right, you might even get a Chaos Spirit Stone." Wang Shoujie transmitted with exasperation, "Where do you get your confidence?"
"Being able to be with Young Master for so long, what else could it be but good fortune?" Yun Tiange said, already at the Stone Gambling stall. "Elder, is your Spirit Stone Raw Ore legitimate?"
"Legitimate, this old man dares to swear on his ancestors and the Heavenly Dao that all these raw ores come from the Grand Beginning Dao Palace's mine." Seeing a big business opportunity, Cai Youdao excitedly thumped his chest and swore to the heavens.
However, he couldn't help but add inwardly. It's legitimate raw ore, but unfortunately, all the good stuff was picked out by that brat Li Ci. What's left are just rotten melons and dates.
Yun Tiange's eyes lit up. Just as she was about to buy the whole stock, Wang Shoujie stopped her from behind, smiling and saying, "Tiange, have you ever heard the saying, 'Lucky in love, unlucky in gambling'?"
These words immediately made Yun Tiange beam with delight: "Young Master makes so much sense. I've been too lucky in love lately, so I should avoid gambling. No wonder I just misjudged. Let's go, let's go. I'll save a few Spirit Stones and treat Young Master to some delicious food."
Just as the two were about to leave, Cai Youdao refused.
He "swooped" and jumped in front of Wang Shoujie, blocking him and saying, "Brat, do you know that cutting off someone's financial path is like killing their parents?"
Before Wang Shoujie could answer, Cai Youdao looked at Yun Tiange and, right in front of Wang Shoujie, slandered him: "Girl, I see this boy has a greasy face and his eyebrows are full of peach blossom bad luck. He must be a young master who is good at eating and wiping his mouth clean without acknowledging it. As fellow True Immortal Realm friends, you must be careful of him..."
"You're also True Immortal Realm?" Yun Tiange looked bewildered; she hadn't been able to tell.
"Yes, when you travel the world, you have to know a little Breath Concealment Art." Cai Youdao grinned, showing a mouthful of white teeth, and said smugly, "Beautiful little girl, your breath concealment technique is mediocre; you can't even fool this old man."
"Young Master, since he's a True Immortal senior..." Yun Tiange was somewhat swayed again.
She was so short on money. Seeing that Ruolan had a Holy Artifact, she also wanted to save more money to buy a Holy Artifact!
"Tiange, gambling is nine parts deception. You've lived... you don't understand this too well. Li Ci and I saw it countless times back then..." Wang Shoujie said with a smile, "How about we wait until we find Li Ci and then let her accompany you to play this?"
"Li Ci?" As soon as Cai Youdao heard that name, he instantly jumped three feet high as if his tail had been stepped on, looking at Wang Shoujie with extreme vigilance. "You, you, you know that brat Li Ci?"
Wang Shoujie looked at his face, then at his Stone Gambling stall, and immediately understood. He chuckled, "Senior, your stall has been patronized by Li Ci, hasn't it? No wonder, tsk tsk... Alright, alright, I understand. Tiange, let's go..."
"Wait..." Cai Youdao, seeing them about to leave, hastily called out to him again, his eyes somewhat surprised and uncertain as he scrutinized Wang Shoujie. "You know that brat Li Ci so well, could you also be surnamed Wang? What's your name?"
"Senior, my name is Wang Shoujie." Wang Shoujie smiled. "It looks like, Senior, you have a 'deep connection' with Li Ci, huh?"
"Wang Shoujie? The 'Fourth Uncle' Li Ci mentioned?" Cai Youdao's black-bean-like eyes instantly lit up, and then he looked at the pouch at Wang Shoujie's waist and the Storage Ring on his hand with a hopeful expression. "Are you very rich?"
"..."
Wang Shoujie was speechless.
