This made Tu Nian stunned. She quickly went to help the man and said in surprise: "Brother, don't fall here!"
Fortunately, the man just lost his balance and was helped by Tu Nian. He immediately regained his spirits and said, "I'm fine, don't worry, fellow Daoist. Just go and get busy."
"Really……"
Tu Nian muttered something, half believing and half doubting.
As if to prove that he was fine, the male cultivator pushed Tu Nian's hand away and staggered back the way he came. However, before he could take two steps, his body tilted again.
Tu Nian didn't dare to take his eyes off him. When he saw that he was about to fall, he immediately reached out and helped him up, "Don't do it."
Helplessly helping him sit on a stone bench at the side, Tu Nian said, "Let's rest here for a while."
With his butt touching the ground, the male cultivator finally let out a sigh of relief, "I'm really sorry for the trouble, fellow Daoist."
It's troublesome, Tu Nian complained in his heart.
She originally wanted to settle him down and leave directly, but seeing that he looked half dead and unburied, she was afraid that if she just patted her butt and left, he would really die here, so she decided to be a good person and took out a black pill from the mustard seed and handed it to him.
"Hey, eat this."
"Um?"
The man had his head down, but when he heard the voice, he raised it with great effort. Seeing the pill in Tu Nian's hand, he shook his head repeatedly, "I have already troubled you so much, how can I use your pill again? I... Ugh!"
"You're almost dead, yet you're still talking nonsense."
Pinching the man's cheeks and forcing the medicine down his throat, Tu Nian said impatiently, "Eat quickly! Don't waste my time. If I weren't afraid you'd die and I wouldn't be able to explain to Bi Hai, do you think I really want to care about you?"
The male cultivator was basically a useless person at this moment. He had no ability to resist Tu Nian's forced feeding of medicine. Therefore, even if Tu Nian was feeding him poison, he could only accept his fate.
This pill was given to Tu Nian by Liu Yuzhu after the competition. It was made with the skills of a Yuanying Pill Cultivator. The effect was immediate after one pill was taken, and the male cultivator's face immediately turned red.
Feeling the obvious changes in his body, the male cultivator exclaimed in amazement: "Daoyou, this elixir is truly powerful!"
Tu Nian rolled his eyes and said, "If you're really grateful, just pay for the medicine. That's much better than just giving me a meaningless compliment."
"ah?"
The male cultivator was obviously not expecting her to say that. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "This... I really don't have a penny on me right now. Can you give me some time, fellow Daoist? I promise that when I have more money in the future, I will pay you back for the medicine."
"No way, the Sixth Young Master of the Wang family is still short of money?"
Tu Nian raised her lips and looked at him teasingly, "Forget it, since you've already given me such a big deal, I'll just give you the pills as after-sales service."
The male cultivator had never heard of after-sales service before, so he nodded in confusion. Then, he realized what was happening and asked in surprise, "Wait, how did you know I'm from the Wang family..."
"Two hundred thousand spirit stones is not something any cultivator in his early twenties can come up with."
Tu Nian shrugged. "Besides, even if I don't know, shouldn't I ask?"
Like the Gong family, the Wang family is a magnificent family that holds a prominent place in the world of immortal cultivation. The Wang family has been particularly prosperous and renowned lately, poised to surpass other families and become the foremost family in the world of immortal cultivation. As the sixth son of the Wang family, Wang Qianye naturally holds some notoriety within the Blue Sea.
Tu Nian simply mentioned his attire to the guard of the library, and mentioned that someone called him "Aye" that day. The other party immediately guessed his identity and there was no need for him to inquire specifically.
"I didn't mean to hide my identity!"
Wang Qianye hurriedly explained, "It's just that this Golden Crow Reverse Feather is extremely important to me, so I dare not make it known too much."
Tu Nian looked at his nervous expression and thought to herself with amusement: this guy is really honest. She was just joking, but he took it to heart. But that was it. If she didn't chat with him for a few more minutes, wouldn't she be ignoring his sincerity?
"The Golden Crow loves heat and is most likely to appear in midsummer and early autumn. If you wait six months, you can probably buy the same thing for half the price. Why do you have to buy it now?"
"this……"
Seeing Wang Qianye's slight hesitation, Tu Nian raised an eyebrow and said, "If you don't want to tell me, I won't force you. Just think of it as a business of resurrecting a living person."
She pretended to leave, and Wang Qianye really said, "Wait!"
Stopping Tu Nian, he clasped his hands and said sincerely, "I am being stingy. Since you have helped me out of danger, you are my benefactor. If you have any questions, how can I not answer them?"
He paused at this point and looked at Tu Nian seriously, "But I hope that after listening to this, you can keep it a secret for me."
He is indeed an honest child!
Tu Nian was delighted, but turned around, her face still calm. Sitting back on the stone bench, she said lightly, "It's natural, tell me."
Wang Qianye clasped his fists again, then sat down a few meters away from her. He then began to speak, "I'm spending so much money this time because I want to win the position of Patriarch."
When he said this, he kept observing Tu Nian out of the corner of his eye. Seeing that his expression remained calm and his breathing was even, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: He is worthy of being the direct disciple of Sect Master Nie. He really has an extraordinary vision. It is such a blessing to be able to make friends with such a noble person.
He immediately withdrew his gaze and continued speaking.
However, how could he know that although Tu Nian seemed calm, he was actually extremely excited inside.
Oh my god, the first bite of the melon was enough to make it explode! First-hand revelations about the internal power struggle within the Wang family, the richest family in the world of immortal cultivation, if this gets out, it will definitely cause quite a stir!
Trying hard to control his expression, Tu Nian pricked up his ears to listen to Wang Qianye's story, and quickly constructed an outline of the whole incident in his mind.
Actually, the matter was not complicated. Simply put, the head of the Wang family was old and in poor health, and it was time for him to abdicate. Normally, the title of head should be passed down to the next generation, but there were fifteen children in the Wang family, and it would be difficult to even balance a bowl of water, let alone divide it into fifteen portions.
The Wang family naturally began to plot various operations to seize power and usurp the throne. The ones after the tenth son were not so difficult to deal with, as the five children were not yet adults and did not possess extraordinary geniuses, so they naturally had no chance of succession. But the first ten children were like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each with their own unique abilities.
From businessmen to scholars, and from cultivators to refining weapons, the ten children tried almost everything to demonstrate their personal abilities. The recent booming development of the Wang family was thanks to them.
Besides these, Wang Qianye also took a fancy to several spiritual weapons that his father had always wanted but had never been able to obtain, and wanted to get them for him.
Among them was a Nine-Curved Fire Cauldron. He had already gathered all the other materials and only needed this Golden Crow Feather to refine it. That was why he was willing to pay double the price to do this seemingly unprofitable deal with Tu Nian.
