Chapter 2214: Tong Ya’s Gift! (2)

Tong Ya nodded. She gave her a meaningful look and said, “It seems like you have a high opinion of him.”

“Sister, do you think Wang Teng’s alchemy skills can be of help to you?” Tong En leaned in, linking arms with Tong Ya, and asked with a mischievous smile. “Oh? You want him to help me?” Tong Ya raised an eyebrow in surprise.

“Yes, his alchemy skills are quite extraordinary. The appearance of the Azure Dragon last time seemed to be related to him. Someone who can refine such high-level pills should be capable of assisting you,” Tong En said.

“I see.” Tong Ya nodded and said, “But the materials for that kind of elixir are hard to find. Even if you managed to find one of the main ingredients on the Scorpion King Star, there’s still another scarce main ingredient missing, and I’m still searching for it.”

She sighed as she spoke.

“What should we do? What other material is still missing?” Tong En asked anxiously.

“I can suppress the poison in my body for some time. You don’t have to worry too much.” Tong Ya smiled.

“What ingredient do we need? Sister, tell me quickly. Are you trying to drive me crazy?” Tong En asked agitatedly.

“You’re still so impatient,” Tong Ya chuckled and patted his head affectionately. “The missing material is called Cloud Immortal Milk.”

“Cloud Immortal Milk!” Tong En furrowed his brows. “I’ve never heard of such a material.”

!!..

“It’s normal that you haven’t heard of it. Generally, only universe-stage martial warriors and above would come into contact with it,” Tong Ya explained. Her tone turned stern as she continued, “Don’t go looking for it. It’s extremely rare, and its grade is quite high. It has a fatal attraction to ultimate stage imperial-level star beasts and above. Therefore, such treasures are always guarded by powerful star beasts. It’s not something you, a heaven-stage martial warrior, can obtain.”

“Ultimate stage imperial-level and above star beasts!” Tong En was flabbergasted. She stuck out her tongue, exclaiming, “Looks like only you, sis, can handle this. I can’t.”

He was quite self-aware. If Cloud Immortal Milk was guarded by star beasts of the ultimate stage imperial level and above, it was definitely beyond her reach. While she wanted to help her sister, she knew her limitations.

If she recklessly tried to find Cloud Immortal Milk, she might end up needing her sister to rescue her. That would be awkward.

“As long as you understand,” Tong Ya said.

“Should 1 drop a hint to Wang Teng and see what he says?” Tong En suggested, clearly not giving up on the idea of seeking Wang Teng’s help.

“Let’s do this. With his recent appointment as a councilor, you can send a gift in my name,” Tong Ya proposed. She thought for a moment and waved her hand, conjuring a delicate jade box onto the table.

“In your name!” Tong En exclaimed in surprise. She hadn’t expected his sister to take the initiative to send a gift.

It seemed that even her sister was approaching Wang Teng with caution after he became a councilor.

Opening the jade box, Tong En found an ancient-looking scroll inside.

“What is this?” Tong En looked at the scroll in the jade box and asked curiously.

“This is an alchemical manual I happened to obtain, written by a semi-alchemy saint. Originally, I planned to use it to impress alchemists when seeking their assistance. But now that you’ve found an excellent alchemist for me, I’ll give this manual to him,” Tong Ya explained with a smile.

“A semi-alchemy saint’s alchemical manual!” Tong En exclaimed in astonishment. “Sis, you’re generous.”

“This item isn’t of much use to us. Its true potential can only be realized in the hands of a grandmaster alchemist,” Tong Ya said nonchalantly.

“Don’t say that. If you auctioned it off, many grandmaster alchemists would be eager to obtain it. They’d be more than willing to help you with making pills. It’s a real bargain for Wang Teng,” Tong En remarked.

“How can other alchemists compare to Grandmaster Wang Teng? He’s so young and exceptionally talented in martial arts. Giving away a somewhat unimportant alchemical manual to gain his friendship and take advantage of the situation is a win for us,” Tong Ya said with a wise twinkle in her eyes, chuckling.

“Sis, you’re quite cunning,” Tong En said, staring at her in disbelief before finally responding.

She thought she was clever, but compared to her sister, she felt like a fool. No wonder her sister made it onto the universe goddess rank.

“Did you just call your sister cunning?” Tong Ya poked her cheek with an annoyed expression, rolling her eyes.

“Haha.” Tong En chuckled, not caring at all. She didn’t call her sister scheming. It was just a playful comment among sisters.

“Go on then,” Tong Ya said, shaking her head with a smile.

“Alright, I’m off,” Tong En nodded, picking up the jade box from the table and happily bouncing away.

Tong En wasn’t the only one who took action after seeing the news.

Even Ji Feiyun, Wu Ta, and the others began to prepare gifts to congratulate Wang Teng, just like Tong Ya did.

Becoming a councilor elevated Wang Teng’s status to a level equal to theirs.

If before, they were only interested in Wang Teng’s potential, now they had to treat him on an equal footing due to his official position.

In a way, they were delighted that Wang Teng had become a councilor, as it affirmed the wisdom of their decision to invest in him from the beginning.

“Wang Teng has become a councilor!”

The warriors of the Solar Dragon Race also gathered together. Upon seeing the news, Zhulong Shan was filled with astonishment, followed by envy and jealousy.

“It seems 1 need to send him a gift too,” Zhulong Shuang chuckled. She stretched her large, beautiful body and yawned lazily.

“Do we really have to do that? We are from the Solar Dragon Race!” Zhulong Hao frowned.

“Whether 1 send a gift or not is my business, and it has nothing to do with you guys,” Zhulong Shuang casually remarked.

“… You are still part of the Solar Dragon Race too.” Zhulong Hao and the others were speechless.

“Is it shameful to give a gift to a councilor?” Zhulong Shuang asked.

“He’s just a cosmos-stage martial warrior, and he offended Councilor Ernest. Don’t forget, Councilor Ernest is on the Judge’s side,” Zhulong Hao said.

“So what?” Zhulong Shuang remained unmoved and continued walking out of the estate.

“Ridiculous!” Zhulong Hao was furious. This woman never gave him face during internal meetings.

Externally, Zhulong Shuang would stand with them because they were all from the Solar Dragon Race.

However, Zhulong Shuang and Zhulong Hao were on different sides. They had their own factions in their race, so they never agreed with each other.

Zhulong Shan’s gaze flickered. His elder brother, Zhulong Ye, was on the Judge’s side, but Zhulong Shuang insisted on siding with Wang Teng.

“A bunch of idiots!” Zhulong Shuang walked out of the gate, shook her head, and cursed disdainfully.

A few martial warriors from the Solar Dragon Race walked out with her. Upon hearing her curse, they couldn’t help but feel a bit awkward.

“Sister Shuang, do we have to give a gift to that Wang Teng?” A heaven-stage martial warrior from the Solar Dragon Race asked.

“Why, do you disagree too?” Zhulong Shuang said.

“It’s not that we disagree. It’s just that we’re a bit confused. Wang Teng’s foundation is not stable, and rushing to establish a relationship with him might not be wise,” the Solar Dragon Race martial warrior said.

“I see potential in him, that’s all,” Zhulong Shuang glanced at him and said indifferently.

“Erm…” The Solar Dragon Race martial warriors were stunned. They didn’t expect Zhulong Shuang to give such a whimsical answer, leaving them unsure of how to respond.

“Use your brains to think. If we wait for him to establish a firm foothold before trying to establish a relationship, will it be the same as it is now?” Zhulong Shuang sneered.

The Solar Dragon Race martial warriors looked at each other. They naturally understood this principle, but the risk seemed somewhat significant, leading to their hesitation.

“Risks always come proportionate to rewards. If I bet right this time, I will gain substantial rewards,” Zhulong Shuang’s eyes gleamed as she spoke.

“Since Sister Shuang is willing to take the gamble, then we naturally follow suit and take the risk.” The martial warriors from the Solar Dragon Race exchanged glances and immediately expressed their stance.

“Very well.” Zhulong Shuang patted the shoulder of the Solar Dragon Race martial warrior who had spoken earlier and smiled..
