174: This dude is crazy.
Xiao Yue truly didn't understand it.
Or rather, he had never understood Xiao Zhenxuan's actions.
But even if he didn't understand, Xiao Yue didn't interject. He knew this opportunity was crucial for the Xiao Family, and he lacked the ability to save the current Xiao Family, so everything still had to be decided by Xiao Zhenxuan.
It was clear Xiao Zhenxuan had his own plans: "If I can successfully lead the Four Great Families to join the White Wing Martial Arts Training Center, would you be able to give my son and me a chance to join the Martial Artist Training Base?"
Xiao Yue:!!!
Director Gao raised his eyebrows high, seemingly not expecting this to be Xiao Zhenxuan's true objective.
However... Xiao Zhenxuan's request wasn't very difficult to fulfill.
Before coming here, Director Gao had anticipated that Xiao Zhenxuan might make some demands, as they hadn't cooperated before and were now negotiating for mutual benefit.
Since it was for mutual benefit, it was impossible for only one party to benefit.
Cooperation is always for a win-win outcome.
When Director Li previously suggested annexing the Xiao Family, Xiao Zhenxuan rejected it without even considering, because that completely deviated from the scope of "cooperation."
Director Li wanted the Xiao Family to become a complete subordinate of his Jiuyou Martial Arts Training Center, and Xiao Zhenxuan and Xiao Yue would never have any hope of rising again in this lifetime.
This was not what Xiao Zhenxuan wanted to see.
So, he immediately turned to Director Li's competitor, Director Gao, and proactively pledged his allegiance.
There's a significant difference between proactively pledging allegiance and being passively harvested; this concerns the future direction of the Xiao Family.
"As expected of Clan Leader Xiao, who once nearly led the Xiao Family to become the head of the Four Great Families. Even in decline, Clan Leader Xiao can still find the one flower he needs most amidst the myriad blossoms."
Director Gao couldn't help but applaud Xiao Zhenxuan.
Xiao Zhenxuan smiled, extending his hand and saying, "Then let us toast in advance to a pleasant cooperation between both parties."
Director Gao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows again. This old fox truly didn't give him any chance to consider.
But who wouldn't be willing to do something with low risk and high reward?
"Happy cooperation." Director Gao also extended his right hand... The next day.
"You trained so late yesterday? And you're out so early today, do you get enough sleep?"
On the way to the forest to find the green train, Ge Yunying heard Feng Zhi say that Wang Yi had set a very harsh special training for himself, and couldn't help but ask in surprise.
Wang Yi sighed: "I still get enough time, because I'm very tired from special training during the day, and I can almost fall asleep as soon as I hit the bed at night."
"But your body's endurance..." Although Ge Yunying tried her best to conceal it, it was still evident that she was very worried about Wang Yi.
Feng Zhi knew his words wouldn't work, which is why he told Ge Yunying, hoping she could help persuade Wang Yi.
His special training plan was simply not something a human could do. Didn't he see that even the Mystic Horned Beast was almost unbearable last night?
Even a fourth-tier fierce beast was crying fatigue... He really didn't know how Wang Yi was enduring it.
"It's fine, this special training plan of mine is only temporary, and will be modified later according to my own physical condition." It seemed Wang Yi was truly eager to quickly improve his overall strength in a short period this time.
So much so that he completely missed the concern in Ge Yunying's words.
Thus, Feng Zhi's eyes widened, thinking, 'Has even what Yunying said become ineffective this time?'
Has a love-struck brain suddenly turned into a special-training-struck brain?
It really makes one... not know whether to say it's good or not.
"Let's go buy water first; I hope today's train exclusive water hasn't been sold out yet." Seeing Wang Yi was unyielding, Feng Zhi could only say this.
"Okay." Wang Yi nodded. His purpose for coming out this morning was to buy water. "Oh right, doesn't that water quickly relieve fatigue? It seems my special training plan can be even more aggressive..."
Ge Yunying:???
Feng Zhi: "..." This guy is truly crazy.
Upon reaching the Inner Circle of the forest, the green train quickly appeared before them.
"I wonder if the water is sold out. Go check quickly!"
Wang Yi was rarely this proactive, running ahead first.
He was incredibly fast; one couldn't catch up to him without being quick.
Ge Yunying and Feng Zhi exchanged glances, then quickly followed.
"Is there any train exclusive water left?" Wang Yi asked immediately after catching up to the train.
There are two bottles left.
Today's first bottle had already been bought by Little Ice Fox. It seemed yesterday's train exclusive water had opened up a new world for Little Ice Fox.
train exclusive water is just that magical; all customers are repeat customers, so the sales progress of train exclusive water is the fastest.
As long as the remaining two bottles are sold today, the sales progress for the next upgrade's train exclusive water can be completed.
"I'll take both bottles!" Wang Yi readily pulled out spirit stone vouchers, as he calculated that the spirit stones he had previously deposited on the train should be running out soon.
He would deposit some more next time he took the train.
Okay, here is your train exclusive water. Please take it.
The sales progress finally met the standard!
The train's current Sheng Wu Dan sales progress is (8/10), Healing Pill sales progress is (8/10), cultivation technique sales progress is (3/4), and train exclusive water sales progress is (30/30 achieved).
Lin Feng was very happy; he was one step closer to upgrading. Next, he only needed to promote a few Sheng Wu Dan, Healing Pills, and a water-attribute cultivation technique.
Adhering to the principle that if it's promotion, then one shouldn't be shy, Lin Feng immediately displayed a caption before Wang Yi turned to leave:
Do you need Sheng Wu Dan or Healing Pill? The price is affordable, and the quality is excellent. Sheng Wu Dan stock is running low, so buy quickly!
Wang Yi indeed paused.
He didn't need Sheng Wu Dan, but Ge Yunying and Feng Zhi both needed it very much.
"Do you two want to buy some? If you don't have enough money, I'll pay for you." Wang Yi turned around and asked them.
Feng Zhi:!!!
"Brother! You're my real brother!" Feng Zhi shouted excitedly, "I want to buy an Martial Enhancement Pill."
He had originally intended to use the one thousand spirit stones he had saved to buy an Martial Enhancement Pill today, but he hadn't expected Wang Yi to be so generous, actually offering to pay for one for each of them!
Forget calling him 'brother,' he'd even call him 'godfather'!
"I can buy my own." Ge Yunying wasn't very keen on spending Wang Yi's money, especially at this time.
Wang Yi carried too many burdens.
When the current Director of the Beast Taming Bureau retires in the future, the person most likely to take on the entire Beast Taming Bureau is Wang Yi.
So, Ge Yunying could actually understand why he always trained so desperately.
But understanding was one thing, and feeling heartache was another.
Feng Zhi:???
Sister Yunying, what's going on with you?
You're making me look so foolish!
At this moment, shouldn't I take out the one thousand spirit stones I brought and tell Wang Yi that he doesn't need to buy it for me?
