Zhou Xiruo realized that Wang Xiao was hiding something, but she didn’t directly expose him in front of Tang Longji. Instead, she quietly observed from the side.
On the other side, when Tang Longji heard that Wang Xiao was going to seek guidance from a senior, he provided a few more names. They were all elders from the grandpa generation of the big families in Kaiyang City.
“Take this with you.”
Tang Longji took off a ring and handed it to Wang Xiao. “This is our Tang
Family’s token. If those seniors aren’t willing to see you, show them the ring.”
Wang Xiao took the ring and looked at it. It was made of mithril, and the emblem of the Tang family was engraved on the surface of the ring. It was the word “Tang” written with strong strokes.
“Thank you, Uncle Tang! ”
Wang Xiao hurriedly bowed and thanked him. He smiled embarrassedly and said, “You’re so good to me. I don’t know how to thank you!”
Tang Longji laughed and waved his hand nonchalantly. “We can be considered to have a life-and-death friendship. Moreover, you and Hengshan are good friends, so why are you being so polite with me?”
Without waiting for Wang Xiao to speak, Tang Longji sighed with emotion, “But this ring is just a safety net. With your current fame, these families won’t be able to wait to curry favor with you. They probably won’t refuse to see you!” “Is that so? Then I’ll rely on Uncle Tang’s blessings!”
Wang Xiao chuckled and thought for a moment before saying, “Uncle Tang, after I’m done with this matter, I’ll give this ring to Tang Hengshan and let him pass it to you, okay?”
“Let Hengshan pass it to me?”
Tang Longji was stunned. “Can’t we meet? Can’t you just return it to me directly?”
“But I want to terminate my [Vassal Contract] with you.”
Wang Xiao smiled, then said with a serious expression, “I kept it a secret because I wanted to make it easier for me to investigate the Purple Star lord’s matter. Now that the matter has been resolved, I can’t let you continue to be my vassal lord, right?”
“Ha! I thought it was something! I didn’t take this thing to heart at all!”
‘l’ang LongJ1 laughed and waved his hand. Although ne said that ne didn’t care, the corners of his mouth were almost reaching his ears!
Tang Longji could not be blamed for being snobbish. Although his status was inferior to people like Chen Jinrong and Huang Tingwei, he was still a true level five lord. If word got out that he was vassal to a level three brat all day long, what would be left of his dignity?
Wang Xiao had also considered this. Hence, as soon as the matter was resolved, he took the initiative to remove the vassal relationship. At the same time, there was another reason. He did not want others to know what he was going to do in the future.
Putting aside Wang Xiao’s thoughts for the time being, after the two parties solemnly said their goodbyes, Tang Longji left the territory.
Then, Wang Xiao found Tang Longji’s [Vassal Contract] and pressed “release”. After that, his vassal relationship with Tang Longji ended here.
With a light “bang”, the invalid [Vassal Contract] turned into light fragments and dissipated. At the same time, the smile on Wang Xiao’s face disappeared.
“Xiruo.”
Wang Xiao shouted and looked at Zhou Xiruo with a serious expression. “Do you still want to continue being my vassal?”
Zhou Xiruo had a belly full of questions, but when she heard this, she was suddenly stunned. “What do you mean?”
“Don’t play dumb. You already know, right?”
Wang Xiao smiled bitterly and pointed at the two [Lord Cores] in the air. “You haven’t made a sound since just now. You’ve been looking at me like that. You must already know what I’m going to do, right?”
Zhou Xiruo was stunned for a moment, but she immediately reacted. Their understanding of each other was mutual. Since she could see through Wang Xiao’s thoughts, Wang Xiao could definitely do the same.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xiruo stopped pretending. She put on a straight face and asked, “Do you know how dangerous it is to do this?”
“I do.”
Wang Xiao nodded, but his eyes did not waver. “But I think we can give it a try. However, if we fail, even your [Lord Core] might be affected. That’s why I want to ask you…”
Before Wang Xiao could finish, Zhou Xiruo replied firmly, “There’s no need to ask. I won’t leave.”
“What if your [Lord Core] is implicated and everything that happened before is for naught?”
“Then I’ll start over with you!”
Zhou Xiruo subconsciously replied. As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly realized something and blushed. She hurriedly whispered, “What I mean is… I believe that you can succeed, so no matter what happens, I will stand with you.”
Looking at the shy Zhou Xiruo, Wang Xiao was silent for nearly ten seconds before he spoke again, “Then let’s go!”
Zhou Xiruo was stunned. “Where are we going?”
“Gather resources and advance to level five!”
Kaiyang City, trading market.
After Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo left the territory, they came here immediately.
From level three onwards, the amount of resources needed to upgrade the [Lord Core] would be astronomical. He didn’t know how long it would take to collect it by manpower alone, so Wang Xiao thought of the simplest solution— to solve it with money.
Standing at the entrance of the Lord’s Shop, Zhou Xiruo suddenly felt a little flustered.
After hesitating for a moment, she still pulled Wang Xiao, who was about to
enter, and asked softly with a worried expression, “Wang Xiao, will this really work?”
“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”
Wang Xiao smiled and patted the back of Zhou Xiruo’s hand. Just as he was about to say something, the door of the Lord’s Shop suddenly opened and the manager, Lin Xiang, rushed out.
Both parties were stunned when they met at the door. In the end, Lin Xiang was the first to react. He put on a professional smile and greeted, “Isn’t this Brother Wang! Congratulations on winning the championship!”
“We were lucky.”
Wang Xiao chuckled and asked with a frown, “Manager Lin, why are you leaving in such a hurry? Is there something urgent?”
“It’s nothing serious. I’m just going to pick up a batch of goods.”
As Lin Xiang spoke, he moved to the side and made a “please enter” gesture.
“You guys can wait for me in the office first. I’ll be right back.”
“Alright, go ahead.”
Wang Xiao nodded, and Lin Xiang left in a hurry. He brought Zhou Xiruo to the manager’s office with ease.
Less than ten minutes after he sat down, the office door was pushed open and Lin Xiang ran in, sweating profusely.
“Sorry, sorry! I’m really sorry!”
As soon as Lin Xiang entered, he apologized repeatedly with a smile, “It’s really because this batch of goods is a little important. I didn’t greet you well. Brother Wang, please don’t take offense!”
“Manager Lin, you’re too polite!”
Wang Xiao smiled and said humbly. After Lin Xiang sat down, he continued, “Actually, I came here today to discuss a big business with you.”
“Big business?”
Lin Xiang was stunned. “How big of a business?
“It’s huge.”
Wang Xiao said in a deep voice. After a pause, he added, “The amount I need might require you to coordinate with the headquarters.”
“Hiss—”
Lin Xiang sucked in a breath of cold air. His wide eyes were filled with surprise.
“Brother Wang, are you joking with me?”
Wang Xiao shook his head and said seriously, “I’m preparing to become a level five lord..”
