"Excuse me, Miss Xue, what is it you need? Just say it, I need to go home."
"Look, I've bought so many New Year's goods. It's almost the new year, let's save each other some trouble."
Zhang Tian was a bit speechless by the two of them blocking him, so he had to speak up.
"It's like this, Master Zhang, we'll be direct. We want you to go to Beidong with us to investigate an ancient tomb."
"Of course, we won't treat you unfairly. You can name any condition, as long as we can accept it."
Shirley Yang said with a serious expression.
She knew that Zhang Tian's team was definitely not ordinary people, and it was highly possible that they were the ones who contributed the tomb blueprints. Therefore, she was more inclined to have Zhang Tian and his group lead her there.
"Not in the mood."
Zhang Tian waved his hand indifferently.
In his heart, he had already cursed these two idiots a hundred times.
He had just returned from Beidong, having gone through immense hardship and nearly died there. Now, they wanted him to go back.
What else could they be but idiots? It was already giving them face that Zhang Tian didn't leave immediately.
"Master Zhang, please consider it. We will try our best to satisfy your demands."
Shirley Yang looked at Zhang Tian and spoke again. Her main intention was to test Zhang Tian.
Zhang Tian took a breath, his face devoid of any color.
"I heard that in Beili, there is someone named Wu Tianzhen. You can go with him."
As Zhang Tian spoke, Professor Chen's back instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
The tomb-blasting hero!
The tomb-blasting youth squad...
Thinking of the scene where Wu Tianzhen's team blew up a tomb in the underwater tomb, he felt a chill. If they brought that guy along, wouldn't it be...
"Um, Master Zhang, if you're not going, are there any others?"
"Can you recommend someone?"
Professor Chen smiled, decisively ignoring Wu Tianzhen.
"The Xie family. Go to Xie Yu Chen of the Xie family. He's a genius."
Zhang Tian said casually.
In his heart, he was apologizing to Xie Yu Chen.
"Young Master Xie, please consider me an excuse. I will thank you later."
Zhang Tian thought to himself. Shirley Yang and Professor Chen's eyes lit up.
The person Zhang Tian recommended would definitely not be bad.
"Thank you!"
The two quickly bowed and then rushed towards the Xie family.
At this moment, inside the Xie family.
Xie Yu Chen was kneeling on the ground.
Xie Lian Huan looked at Xie Yu Chen.
"Yu Chen, I didn't expect you to actually go into a tomb. What did I say before? You are the generation that will clean up the Xie family's reputation. And you? You go into tombs and steal from them?"
"How can this be tolerated!"
Old Master Xie's face was filled with anger.
Just then, Er Yue Hong slowly walked in.
In his hand was a silver needle.
Then, Er Yue Hong whispered a few words into Xie Lian Huan's ear. The next moment, Old Master Xie's face was filled with smiles.
"The Soul Severing Pear Blossom Needle. Excellent, excellent. To obtain such a treasure on your first tomb exploration, hmm, you have great potential."
Saying that, Xie Yu Chen was stunned for a moment. Good heavens, how did he not know his father had such a capacity for changing his expression?
"Yu Hua, I already know the purpose of this formation. It can even severely injure the soul. With this needle, we can even compete with other families."
"Very good. However, if you could bring this back, wouldn't Zhang Tian have obtained even more?"
Er Yue Hong was meticulous and quickly thought of Zhang Tian.
After all, Xie Yu Chen, who had only been in a tomb once, could bring back such a peerless treasure. Wouldn't Zhang Tian have profited immensely?
Xie Yu Chen shook his head and then recounted the difficulties he encountered in the tomb and the fact that he almost died.
He did not mention the crucial details.
The main hall was silent for a moment.
"It seems Zhang Tian is not an easy person to deal with either."
"The capabilities of his team likely surpass the foundation of a large family. We should also be careful."
After listening to Xie Yu Chen's words, Er Yue Hong said with a deeper voice.
He was not a fool. Even if their entire Xie family went to break into the "Hall of Hell" that Zhang Tian had gone into, they might not be able to resolve it.
Zhang Tian's ability to return safely indicated a strength that they could not afford to provoke.
"Alas, the Beili region is about to change."
Old Master Xie sighed.
Xie Yu Chen hesitated for a moment, and he slowly took out a golden pill.
"Second Uncle, Father, I found this in the tomb and hid it. I don't know what it is."
Xie Yu Chen did not say that Zhang Tian also had one.
He only said that he had hidden it.
When the pill was brought out, their eyes widened. Er Yue Hong was even somewhat excited.
Old Master Xie's face showed even more shock.
"I didn't expect the legend of the Golden Vein of Qingfeng Mountain to be true. This is a Golden Vein Pill, naturally formed. It is said that taking it can even increase a martial artist's cultivation by several levels!"
As Er Yue Hong spoke, the scene fell silent.
"Yu Chen, take this pill. It will help your cultivation. Since you were able to obtain the pill, Zhang Tian can certainly do so as well."
"Do not rely on luck. As for your tomb raiding, no one is to speak of it. We will also strictly keep Zhang Tian's matters confidential."
"Build a good relationship with Zhang Tian in secret. Don't let other families know the potential of Zhang Tian and his group."
As expected of Old Master Xie, his thoughts were extremely meticulous.
After he finished speaking, the two nodded and said no more.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door from outside.
"Patriarch, outside, a person claiming to be an archaeological expert is here to see you."
The butler had a serious expression on his face.
"Expert?"
Old Master Xie frowned slightly.
"Let them in."
Saying that, the butler quickly went out.
Then, Shirley Yang and Professor Chen hurried into the Xie family's inner chambers.
Everyone looked at the two. Er Yue Hong was a little puzzled.
They were strangers. Why would these two suddenly come to his Xie family?
"Hello, I am an archaeological professor from Beili. My surname is Chen. We were introduced by Zhang Tian."
After Professor Chen explained his purpose for coming,
He was directly rejected by the Xie family.
Then, without a doubt, the two were unceremoniously kicked out.
Standing outside the door, Professor Chen looked dejected.
Within minutes of entering and saying a few words, he was kicked out.
It was simply absurd.
"Alas, it seems the Xie family does not welcome us."
Professor Chen sighed.
His face was full of weariness.
"Really, what kind of random people are appearing. How could Zhang Tian, a tomb raider, be associated with experts? A charlatan."
Old Master Xie said indifferently.
After chatting for a while longer, Xie Yu Chen left the main hall.
His eyebrows slightly raised.
"I must go to that tomb again."
Xie Yu Chen thought to himself, his gaze fixed on the outside.
In the tomb, Xie Yu Chen desperately wanted to know if what the witch said was true.
Could that place truly resurrect the souls of the deceased?
He wanted to try.
"Only three more people are needed. Since the expert team is going, why don't I follow? Then I can bring a few more guilty sinners, and we can try then."
Xie Yu Chen thought to himself, his resolve to go back and see strengthened.
Ever since the incident at the altar, Xie Yu Chen had been preoccupied with it.
Thinking of this, Xie Yu Chen took a breath and walked towards the outside.
He was naturally a strong-willed person. Although he appeared gentle and weak on the outside, his heart was definitely firm.
Once he decided on something, how could he easily change his mind?
At this moment, on Zhang Tian's side.
Zhang Tian had successfully returned to the entrance of the antique shop.
Looking at the large bags and small packages of goods in his hands, Zhang Tian nodded with satisfaction.
Mom and Dad would definitely like it!
After all, he was the one who knew them best.
Without hesitation, Zhang Tian gently knocked on the door.
