In the room.
Wang Teng sat cross-legged on the bed. There was a pile of books and scrolls beside him. There was even a Runes Inheritance Stone.
"Looks like Li Rongxue really put in a lot of effort to detoxify her father." Wang Teng looked at these things and couldn't help but sigh.
"Speaking of which, what kind of poison did Lord Yang suffer from? It's so troublesome."
Even though Wang Teng didn't see it with his own eyes, it wasn't difficult for him to guess that the poison Lord Yang suffered from was definitely not ordinary.
He rummaged through the numerous materials, and soon, a yellowed animal skin scroll caught his attention.
Lunar Eclipse Poison Scripture!
"It's you!" Wang Teng's eyes lit up. He immediately looked at the words on the animal skin scroll.
？？？
Then, he was dumbfounded. He was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.
Why was the cover written in the common language, but the inside was written in ancient language that he couldn't understand?!
Wang Teng felt a headache coming on. He couldn't help but think of Li Rongxue's face. She must be secretly laughing at home at this moment.
This narrow-minded woman!
Li Rongxue must have guessed this result, but she still gave it to him. This was definitely revenge.
Wang Teng flipped through the books again. He realized that there were many words that he couldn't understand. He filtered them out one by one. After a rough calculation, he found that there were at least four or five ancient languages, but he couldn't understand any of them.
Wang Teng thought for a while. It seemed like he could only go back and look for Li Rongxue. She must have a translated version.
"This woman is really scheming. She gave me the original version but hid the translated version. Even if I questioned her, she could deny it completely." Wang Teng thought for a while and understood the key point. He gritted his teeth in hatred, but he couldn't help but sigh dejectedly.
He had no choice but to compromise. It wasn't easy to translate so much information, and it would take a lot of time to translate from scratch. It wasn't worth it, so getting the translated version from Li Rongxue was the best way.
Wang Teng went out and asked for the location. Then, he went straight to Lord Yang's Residence.
Lord Yang's Residence was the most powerful place in Yang City. It was located in the center of the city and was spacious. It was surrounded by mountains and rivers. It was truly the most luxurious of luxuries. It took a lot of manpower and resources to build it.
Wang Teng was stopped by the guards.
"I know your princess. Please inform her," said Wang Teng.
The guard sized up Wang Teng suspiciously. But, he still nodded and said, "Wait here first. I'll go and report."
After saying that, one of them entered the mansion through the side door. A moment later, he walked out with the other person.
That person was the pretty young lady who gave Wang Teng the documents just now.
"Come with me."
.........................
. Wang Teng followed behind her and walked into Lord Yang's Residence.
The buildings inside were antique and very unique. The two of them walked for a while, making many turns, passing through corridors and small courtyards. Only then did they arrive at an independent courtyard at the back.
Wang Teng saw Li Rongxue again.
"We meet again. I thought you didn't want to see me anymore. I didn't expect you to find me in less than half a day." Li Rongxue smiled like a … fox!
"Hehe, you should know very well why I came to find you." Wang Teng sneered and sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard. There were pastries and tea on the stone table. He poured himself a cup of tea, picked up a piece of pastry, and ate it.
Li Rongxue didn't care. She said innocently, "What are you talking about? I don't understand anything. "
"Keep pretending." Wang Teng looked at her with disdain.
The pretty girl saw them talking in riddles. She smiled and retreated to the side.
Both of them stopped talking for a while. They were waiting for the other to speak first. Whoever spoke first would be at a disadvantage.
Wang Teng looked calm. He ate the pastries and drank the tea while enjoying the scenery in the courtyard leisurely.
Li Rongxue's mouth twitched. This guy is really thick-skinned!
"Forget it. It seems like he won't speak if I don't. He can wait, but I can't."
Li Rongxue sighed in her heart. Then, she smiled and said, "How about we talk about another deal?"
"Nothing." Wang Teng pouted.
"Don't be angry. Let me finish. I have no choice but to do this. I don't trust many people now," Li Rongxue explained with a bitter smile.
"You're funny. You don't trust many people. How can you trust me?" Wang Teng snorted.
"I do trust you!" Li Rongxue said firmly.
Wang Teng was stunned. He raised his head and looked at her in surprise.
"Although you're greedy and stingy, as long as it's within the scope of the deal, you'll do it well. We've worked together before, so I trust you," Li Rongxue said.
Wang Teng rolled his eyes and said noncommittally, "You think highly of me."
"This is the translated version you want." Li Rongxue waved her hand, and a few books appeared on the table. She said, "I did set you up first. I apologize for that. Whether you help me or not, you can take these translated versions now. If you're willing to help me, you'll gain the friendship of Lord Yang's Mansion."
Wang Teng flipped through the translated versions of the books and put them into his space ring. He said, "Tell me what you want me to help with first."
A hint of surprise flashed across Li Rongxue's eyes. She quickly said, "I want you to help me steal the Purple Core Grass from the Yao family!"
"Steal the Purple Core Grass?" Wang Teng was surprised. He looked at her and said, "Didn't you say you had a way?"
"I wanted to pressure the Yao family to hand over the Purple Core Grass, but the head of the Yao family has become moody ever since his youngest son died. He doesn't listen to anything I say. He pretends to be crazy and refuses to admit that he has the Purple Core Grass. I can't do anything to him." Li Rongxue said helplessly, "And if I do that, I'll alert him. It's impossible to force him to hand over the Purple Core Grass through other means."
"The head of the Yao family lost his youngest son?" Wang Teng asked calmly.
Li Rongxue found it strange that Wang Teng's focus was on this, but she still nodded and said, "Yes, I heard that he was killed by a martial artist from Earth Star when he went out. He's looking for someone to take revenge."
"Haha!" Wang Teng laughed dryly. She seemed to be talking about him! Not only did he kill the head of the Yao family's youngest son, but his eldest son also died indirectly because of him. This was a huge grudge.
"With your strength, the chances of sneaking into the Yao family and stealing the Purple Core Grass should be very high. Also, I can cooperate with you. If your life is really in danger, you can send a signal. I'll immediately bring people to the Yao family to save you. I won't let anything happen to you," Li Rongxue said.
"That's a good idea." Wang Teng stood up and waved his hand. "Thank you for the pastries. I'm leaving!"
Li Rongxue watched him leave without hesitation. Her eyes dimmed slightly.
"Princess, he …" The pretty maid frowned and stepped forward.
"Forget it. I can't force him. If it doesn't work, I can only send someone else," Li Rongxue said helplessly.
