Wan Kuang, the young master of the prestigious Wan Family in Yanjing! In Yanjing, the Wan Family is a large, comprehensive business family. They do not involve themselves in politics, the military, or Martial Arts, but focus solely on business. The Wanhua Group controlled by the Wan Family is one of the largest publicly listed companies in Yanjing and a multinational corporation throughout the North Continent, making it a commercial giant. The Wan Family has forcefully positioned itself among the first-class families in Yanjing, thanks to the terrifying commercial empire they built with Wanhua Group. Although they are incomparable to those top Martial Arts families with thousands of years of heritage, The gap between them and the legendary Cultivation Ancient Clans is even wider. Read full story at novel_fіre.net But, in Yanjing, mentioning the Wan Family invokes awe and admiration from most people; many forces can only look up to them. As the young master of the Wan Family, Wan Kuang naturally thrives in Yanjing. His name indeed matches his arrogant personality. Entering the private room, He exchanged a few pleasantries with Tuoba Yun before directly searching for Zhong Zhaobei. He seemed to disregard the few cultivators in the room. "Zhong Zhaobei is not here, right?" Wan Kuang scanned the room, couldn’t find him, and finally, his eyes fell on the Zhong Family Master, Zhong Yihong, revealing a look of surprise before nodding quickly: "Wan Kuang greets Uncle Zhong!" "Where does this junior come from, who acts as if we don’t exist?" Huang Long and the three others sitting nearby had long sullen faces and scolded Wan Kuang. As for Zhong Xinci, her expression remained calm. She had visited Yanjing several times. She knew that young masters of such great families would have encountered many cultivators. They might even have cultivators stationed in their families as tributes to protect them. After all, families like the Wan Family have a strong foundation and equally strong enemies, so they generally reward loose cultivators with great benefits to station with them. Therefore, Wan Kuang had definitely encountered many Foundation Establishment cultivators, and naturally, he remained calm. Moreover, here in the East Continent, for someone from Yanjing like Wan Kuang, this place is nothing but a remote backwater. They naturally looked down on the East Continent! "You are Wan Kuang from the Wan Family?" Before Wan Kuang could speak, Wang Gu, who was beside Tuoba Yun, looked up and said coldly: "Your arrogant nature truly matches your name! However, old me likes it..." "Wan Kuang greets Master Wang and the other Masters!" Wan Kuang withdrew his gaze, then turned to look at Wang Gu and the others, and slightly bowed, saluting respectfully. Although he was usually arrogant, since Wang Gu had spoken, he dared not go too far. "Hehe, knowing how to advance and retreat, and knowing your place! Not bad!" Wang Gu smiled faintly and nodded, saying: "In the future, if there’s a chance, our Tianya could cooperate with your Wan Family!" Ling Feihong also nodded in agreement on the side. Though they didn’t like Wan Kuang, they weren’t angry. Because, in places like Yanjing, it’s extremely tough for loose cultivators. Loose cultivators in the cultivation world are like duckweed without roots, and their cultivation path is extremely difficult. Besides having to find various cultivation resources themselves, they also have to avoid conflict with cultivation sects and families. Otherwise, if they provoke someone they shouldn’t, they won’t know when they’ll meet their end. To obtain more cultivation resources, many loose cultivators like to cooperate with worldly families like the Wan Family or Martial Arts families to gain benefits. So, Wang Gu and the others didn’t mind Wan Kuang’s attitude. After all, they might cooperate in the future! "Haha... Esteemed masters, well said! In the future, our Wan Family will still need your care!" Wan Kuang laughed heartily, saluted, then looked at Tuoba Yun, saying: "I heard earlier that you discovered an ancient land with treasures. But Zhong Family is also involved. How’s the negotiation going?" "Does your Wan Family also want a piece of the action?" Opposite, Zhong Xinci’s face sank, and she directly challenged. "No, no... Our Wan Family isn’t much interested in this so-called ancient land! As for Cultivation, this young master has no interest. Having power, influence, and wealth, living freely — isn’t that great? Why make things difficult for oneself?" Wan Kuang shook his hands repeatedly, saying, "I merely asked on a whim because Brother Tuoba is considered a friend of mine. I also have a collaboration with Zhong Zhaobei, but that’s between the two of us. As for your Zhong Family, I can’t take a side!" "The discussion is settled — an eight-two split! The Zhong Family gets two, and our Tuoba Family gets eight! It’s already fair enough!" Tuoba Yun smiled coldly, turned to look at Zhong Yihong, and said: "But, are you still unsatisfied with this young master’s distribution?" "Tuoba Yun, your Tuoba Family is going too far!" Zhong Yihong squinted his eyes and said coldly: "Do we really need to rip each other’s faces off?" "Hehe, Uncle Zhong, may I say something?" At this point, Wan Kuang interjected, saying: "I think Brother Tuoba’s suggestion is good! An eight-two split is the best result! Although the ancient land was discovered by your Zhong Family, don’t forget that Taishan is near Yanjing. Most importantly, news of the ancient land has already reached many families. If we don’t cooperate quickly and go there together, we may be intercepted halfway! Never mind those families, but what if other cultivation families or sect cultivators find out? Even other loose cultivators would be enough trouble for us..." Saying this, Wan Kuang glanced at Wang Gu and others and continued: "The reason Master Wang and the esteemed seniors here cooperate with the Tuoba Family instead of hogging it alone is something you should understand! Yanjing is not as simple as you imagine..." Upon hearing this, Zhong Yihong furrowed his brows and fell silent. Zhong Xinci, Huang Long, and others also looked solemn. If they really clashed with the Tuoba Family near Taishan, they might go there in vain and face danger without getting any treasures from the ancient land. Even with Danhua Sect’s help from Zhong Xinci, going to Taishan might be a one-way ticket! "Uncle Zhong, don’t think too much; just go with the eight-two!" Wan Kuang spoke again: "If we end up in discord, don’t even think about an eight-two split; you won’t even get a one-nine share!" "That’s right, even if I, Tuoba Yun, take a one-nine share or don’t give you any share at all, I could still do it!" Tuoba Yun added with a cold smile: "But, this young master is reasonable! So, giving you two is to save your Zhong Family’s face! Otherwise, I wouldn’t even care to travel this far for negotiation for a mere one-nine..." Faced with Wan Kuang and Tuoba Yun’s arrogant demeanor, Zhong Xinci and others were silent. They struggled inwardly. "Forget it, eight-two..." Zhong Yihong sighed long, finally looking at Zhong Xinci, and said: "Xinci, what do you think? If we really stir things up, it could end up being a losing proposition, without catching a chicken or a rice ear..." Zhong Xinci took a deep breath, turned back to look at Lin Tian, with some struggle in her heart. If they didn’t accept, and it really led to a fight, she didn’t know if Lin Tian would want to get involved in the swirling powers of Yanjing. "Well, I think this suggestion from Young Master Wan Kuang is quite good!" Seeing everyone looking at him, Lin Tian finally stood up and, after looking around at everyone, smiled and said: "A one-nine split seems more appropriate to me!" Tuoba Yun said coldly, looking at Lin Tian, who was standing up. Besides Zhong Xinci and An Jingxuan, everyone in the room was taken aback. "Boy, stop speaking nonsense!" Huang Long said with a stern frown, then he added, looking at Zhong Xinci: "Mr. Zhong, you decide! Accept or refuse, the old me and others will stand by your side!" Lin Tian continued: "You misunderstood; I think the young master Wan’s suggestion was quite good! A one-nine distribution seems more appropriate! If things get unpleasant, there could be bloodshed... As for who I am! You’re not qualified to know yet, what with being Young Master Yanjing and all. In my eyes, you’re nothing but small grasshoppers..." A discord means bloodshed! This was exactly what Tuoba Yun had said before. It was even more arrogant than Tuoba Yun and Wan Kuang! In the room, everyone except Zhong Xinci and An Jingxuan was stunned, staring with silence.
