Chapter 1715 - 1714: Epic Maneuvers
Hai Lai's death was somewhat sudden. The three of them were worried about what would happen if the dead suddenly revived, so to put their minds at ease, they went to the scene for a look.After Tang Rao reached the late stage of being a god, the range his Divine Sense could lock onto expanded greatly. When he locked onto the bottom of the cliff, and saw that mass through his Divine Sense, he couldn't help but shiver.
"What a tragic death!"
To make his expression more vivid, he purposely made a facepalm gesture.
"Now we can truly rest assured. It's just unfortunate that the Hela family, for their own interests, rejected someone who had made immense contributions to their family. If they knew the truth, they'd be regretting it bitterly."
Yang Zhi is someone who dislikes trouble, yet he is well aware of the twists and turns within the Hela family. Hai Lai truly gave his all for the development of the Hela family, till his last breath.
"Tang Rao, do you think we're brothers?"
While Tang Rao was still reminiscing about Hai Lai's body looking like a squished eggplant, Yang Zhi suddenly put his hand around Tang Rao, with a sly smile, asking.
"Friends, of course we're friends."
Tang Rao answered first, only wanting to know why Yang Zhi was asking.
"So, since we're friends, if you had any encounters in the mountains, you definitely wouldn't keep it from us, right?"
He hadn't planned on telling them, was that even a question? But Yang Zhi wasn't someone who easily let Tang Rao off the hook. He'd already decided that if Tang Rao didn't give a convincing explanation, he wouldn't let it go.
"It's empty inside, overflowing with Immortal Energy, quite a nice Cave Heaven Blessed Land. I just went in and suddenly felt I was going to advance. Stayed half an hour and broke through to the late-stage god."
Tang Rao was speaking the truth, just omitting many details.
"What a cheeky move, huh?"
Casually discovering the mountain was empty, then casually finding out it was a Cave Heaven Blessed Land inside, and then casually advancing to late-stage god strength.
Wherever this good luck exists, they all want a piece.
"More cheeky moves, I was born lucky, what can I do?"
Now getting arrogant?
"No, no, no, I beg you not to talk anymore, please?"
He feared he'd become envious of wealth and do something too impulsive.
"I must tell you, I need to lay out everything inside the mountain, so you won't think I saw something mysterious in there. Oh, and I have videos from inside that I can show you, would you like to see?"
Videos?
Since Tang Rao dared to say that, it implied he was straightforward and wouldn't bluff them with such lies.
"You've said so much, as brothers, of course we trust you. No need for the videos, it's not like they feature stunning beauties, I'm not interested in empty things."
Empty things... beauties... mentioning them together always sparks imaginations.
"Yang Zhi, I never realized before you had such a cheeky side, I'm defeated, utterly defeated!"
Shu Yi cupped his hand, bowing deeply to Yang Zhi.
This guy, his actions always win hearts and minds.
"Tang Rao, my dad heard I made a new friend outside, and wants me to bring my friend home as a guest. When do you have time to come over and visit my home?"
Yang Zhi extended a heartfelt invitation to Tang Rao, surely Tang Rao wouldn't spend so many days as a guest at Shu Yi's home and find no time at all to visit Yang Zhi's home?
"You brat, snatching people right in front of me?! Tang Rao is staying comfortably at my place, how can you just invite him to your place? We at Shu Family aren't pleased, I tell you, we're not pleased in the slightest!"
If Tang Rao were to go, Shu Yi would be the first to oppose.
"Can you be reasonable? Whether it's pleasing isn't your call. We need to seek the opinion of the person involved. If he agrees, that's good enough. What's your say in all this?"
Now locking horns with Shu Yi?
Yang Zhi was keen on inviting Tang Rao. Shu Yi thought since Tang Rao was here now, he'd only be staying here during his time on East Island, who knew Yang Zhi would turn things upside down like this, already trying hard to share his best friend with Yang Zhi, now Yang Zhi wanted to take Tang Rao away?
To outsiders, these things might not seem serious, but to Shu Yi, every matter was extremely serious.
"Anyway, I don't care, I've promised my dad to invite Tang Rao over, and my dad said if I fail, he'll kick me out of the house. You wouldn't want to see me ousted from home, with nowhere to return, would you?"
Just playing the pity card. Shu Yi could do it; Yang Zhi wasn't far behind.
While Shu Yi was still contemplative, Yang Zhi decisively proclaimed, "That's settled then. Tang Rao's been at your place too long, surely he's weary. My home's style is completely different from his, and most importantly, I have many beauties at home, a plethora to serve you, such lifestyle, don't you long for it even a bit?"
Beauties?
Forget the other points, it's the mention of beauties that fired things up instantly, quickly settling the score between the two.
"Shu Yi, I totally understand your feelings, but aren't we all friends? What you're doing isn't quite right. I've been at Shu Family for so many days, and everyone there treated me very well, especially your old man, almost like I'm part of the family. But Yang Zhi is also our friend, right? Since Yang Zhi's dad, the senior, spoke up, as juniors, I must show some respect, can't let them think I'm someone of poor character, don't you agree?"
It's just an invitation to visit Yang Family, not a big deal, but with Tang Rao's slight embellishment, it sounded a lot more significant.
"Yes, right, I think you're very correct, but I still don't want him entering your Yang Family. Look how pure and untainted our Shu Family's relationships are, clear like a fresh spring water. But your Yang Family? Except for you being halfway credible, how many of the others are good? Him entering your home is like diving into deep waters, you'd deny it?"
Shu Yi was already wavering, actually thinking, wherever Tang Rao stayed, he'd just go there too. But Yang Family was an extremely special existence. Shu Yi could already foresee how Tang Rao would be faced with the peculiarities of the Yang Family once he entered.
