"Mr. Taiyi, rest assured, the matters you entrusted will not go astray."
Wang Ba nodded slightly:
"Let it be so."
Tenth Son of Yin then looked at Wan Haisheng and nodded:
"Young Master Haisheng, please."
Seeing Tenth Son of Yin nod, Wan Haisheng seed to breathe a sigh of relief. His gaze quickly swept over Wang Ba and Tenth Son of Yin without a trace, his smile growing even wider before he raised his hand again in invitation.
Wang Ba, however, did not move imdiately. His gaze passed over the surrounding Wan Family cultivators, focusing on a tall cultivator in the crowd whose face looked sowhat unpleasant.
On his calm face, a faint, mocking smile suddenly appeared at this mont.
Just like the look on the tall cultivator's face before.
Then, his figure flashed and he flew towards the distance.
At this mont, the tall cultivator in the crowd had a face like iron.
Wan Haisheng, thoughtfully observing the scene, quickly flew up as well. As he passed over the tall cultivator, he paused slightly, his voice indifferent:
"I've told you countless tis not to do such things at the trade fair! Today you've finally made a blunder. Co along... and be more sincere later."
The tall cultivator suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with extre anger, frustration, unwillingness, and bewildernt.
Unable to resist, he transmitted his voice:
"Second Brother."
"Is he from the Yin Family of Baiqu? But among the core mbers of the Yin Family, is there such a person? That Tenth Son of Yin is the descendant of Yin Fu, the Chief of Yin Family, with a high status, yet he shows such respect to this person..."
Wan Haisheng's expression was calm, but a cold glint flashed at the bottom of his eyes:
"He should be a Guest Official of the Yin Family. The Yin Family shows such care, even the Ninth Ancestor of the Yin Family has specially sent a ssage to the Ancestor, he must have so outstanding qualities... But don't expect the family to clean up all the ss you make, after nurturing you for so long, you know what to do later, right?"
After speaking, he quickly flew towards the distance.
The tall cultivator's face changed color upon hearing this.
A fierce look flashed in his eyes.
He then swiftly flew toward the direction where the crowd was heading.
Before long.
The tall cultivator stopped at a temporary imperial palace on the outskirts of She Mansion.
Inside the palace, the sound of dance music was faintly discernible.
Yet, he imdiately heard the voice of Wan Haisheng and the cultivators of the Yin Family from Baiqu inside:
"...Taoist Friend Taiyi, are these compensations satisfactory?"
"Haha, Second Young Master Wan, forgive my boldness, Mr. Taiyi has his elegance, but since there is a misunderstanding, why don't we see the person involved co to explain personally?"
"Well... Tenth Son of Yin, please wait a mont, my brother will be here shortly. Alas, it's unfortunate for the family, my brother has always been insubordinate, frequently contradicting the Ancestor. If not for his hard work and great achievents, he would have been expelled from the family long ago..."
The tall cultivator heard the conversation of several people, knowing that they had actually already sensed his arrival, his heart instantly flared up with anger.
Thinking of Wan Haisheng's instructions earlier, he imdiately strode into the hall, raising his voice:
"Wan Haiteng unintentionally offended Mr. Taiyi and has co to apologize!"
This shout was quite surprising, causing the surrounding dance music to pause.
Several people inside the hall looked towards the tall cultivator.
Wan Haisheng was expressionless, while 'Mr. Taiyi' looked at him with a subtle smile.
Tenth Son of Yin suddenly chuckled and spoke:
"As for an apology, I haven't seen sincerity."
Wan Haisheng's expression sank slightly upon hearing this, then he looked at the tall cultivator:
"Haiteng..."
The tall cultivator gritted his teeth. His palms turned over, offering the oilcloth umbrella from his waist with both hands.
Wan Haisheng was slightly dissatisfied:
"Closer!"
The tall cultivator showed a look of humiliation but dared not say much. He lifted the oilcloth umbrella over his head with both hands and stepped towards Wang Ba.
Lowering his head, his voice was deep:
"Wan Haiteng has eyes but failed to recognize the True Man. He offended you, sir, please forgive !"
Seated high in the main seat of the palace, Wang Ba looked at the tall cultivator who had been so arrogant earlier but now lowered his back before him. He couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Even though he had learned from Tenth Son of Yin along the way that due to having only one Crossing Tribulation cultivator in its family, the overall strength of Qingluo Wan Family was far inferior to the Yin Family of Baiqu, thus being very humble before the Yin Family, witnessing this scene, he still felt the gap in status caused by the difference in strength.
His gaze shifted slightly, and under the expectant gaze of Wan Haisheng, he gently extended his hand, accepting the oilcloth umbrella.
Wan Haisheng showed a hint of joy and was about to speak.
But suddenly, Wang Ba gently put down the oilcloth umbrella, looked at the tall cultivator, and spoke calmly:
"The mid-grade Innate Dao Treasure in your hand, I have so interest in it as well, would you part with it?"
The tall cultivator lowered his head, his body trembling slightly.
Wan Haisheng was initially stunned but quickly spoke in support:
"Mr. Taiyi has asked, why don't you bring it out quickly!"
Such spinelessness even brought a hint of disdain into Tenth Son of Yin's eyes.
"Yes."
The tall cultivator slowly spoke.
Then from his sleeve, he retrieved the Dao Treasure Wang Ba had previously given to Deng Yingjue.
The next mont, he suddenly lifted his head, revealing a face filled with rage and madness, glaring at Wang Ba:
"You've gone too far! I'm going to fight you!"
Almost simultaneously as he spoke, the mid-grade Innate Dao Treasure in his hand suddenly lit up, and the Seventh Tier Dao Domain on his body rged with the Dao Treasure, instantly striking the unguarded Wang Ba!
The amazing radiance instantly exploded the entire temporary imperial palace!
Cups, tables, beams, pillars, dos... turned to flying ash in an instant.
