"Adjutant An, when is it convenient for Mr. Zhou? Let's hand over Tian Yi as soon as possible." Wood and the other representatives of the Cape family couldn't sit still any longer as they took the initiative to find An Sheng.
"I'm sorry. There's a problem here …" An Sheng wore a troubled expression.
"What's the problem?" Wood asked patiently, but he was already burning with anxiety.
After watching Zhou Wen's performance, anyone would believe that Tian Yi was an excellent-grade Companion Beast. The owner of the Cape family had already given the order to bring Tian Yi back as soon as possible.
"Someone offered a higher price than your family … As you know … My young master is already a little impatient with your many requests … Furthermore, he directly gave you the goods …" An Sheng said hesitantly.
"Adjutant An, we have a contract. With the An family's status, there's no need to violate the contract for such a small profit, right?" Wood immediately turned anxious.
He also knew that Tian Yi's display of abilities was too shocking. Furthermore, the Magic Cube had actually given him a five-star evaluation, even allowing Zhou Wen to reach the top of the rankings. Who in the entire Federation didn't want Tian Yi?
The headlines of the various media outlets were all about Zhou Wen and Tian Yi. Anyone with the ability was probably eyeing Tian Yi.
"We don't want to break the contract, but you know the power of the League of Defender. Now that they want Tian Yi, do we dare not give it to them?" An Sheng sighed.
"So what if it's the League of Defender? Even if the immortals come themselves, they have to be reasonable, right? Why don't we do this? Adjutant An, quickly invite Mr. Zhou. We will complete the handover as soon as possible. If the people from the League of Defender want to use force, let them cause trouble for our Cape family … "Wood said.
"This … The risk we are taking is too great …" An Sheng looked like he was in a dilemma.
"Adjutant An, help us settle this matter. The Cape family will definitely not mistreat you … This is a token of our Cape family's appreciation …" Wood stuffed something into An Sheng's hands.
"No, no, no. This isn't appropriate, right?" Although An Sheng said that, he tilted his body and opened the pocket on his coat with one hand.
…
Wood had already asked for instructions several times in a row. Now, it was not just Wood. The higher-ups of the Cape family were regretting it to death.
If he had known that this would happen, he would have just bought the Heavenly Robe. Yet, he had caused so much trouble, and now, the price he had to pay was ten percent more than before.
Even so, the Cape family was willing to pay. They were afraid that Zhou Wen wouldn't sell the Heavenly Robes to them.
From their point of view, the An family needed a large number of Essence Crystals to use the Accelerator. Otherwise, it was impossible for any faction to exchange such Companion Beasts for Essence Crystals.
In the end, they finally reached an agreement. Even an important member of the Cape family, Woods, rushed over overnight to receive Tian Yi personally.
"As long as we can bring Tian Yi back, everything will be worth it. We must be fast. We can't delay any longer. Otherwise, the Primordial Crystal Mine will see the problem. At that time, it will not be so easy to get Tian Yi back." When Woods came, the master's advice still rang in his ears.
Woods knew that this matter couldn't be delayed. After rushing to Luoyang, he immediately contacted An Sheng and Zhou Wen and headed for the Primordial Crystal Mine to make the transaction.
The Primordial Crystal Mine wasn't far from Luoyang. What was even more coincidental was that it was near Guide City. The dimensional zone was originally under the jurisdiction of Guide City, but there were no signs of human habitation. There were dimensional zones everywhere.
I never expected there to be a Primordial Crystal mine here. Zhou Wen was no stranger to this place. His grandfather had brought him here a few times when he was young.
Back then, it was a mausoleum. Now, it had become a valley at some point in time. There were flowers blooming everywhere in the valley and butterflies fluttering.
As there were many dimensional zones nearby, dimensional creatures that had broken the seal appeared everywhere. The nearby humans had long moved away and headed to some relatively large human cities. There was no one nearby.
Woods led Zhou Wen and company into the valley. It was unknown when the valley had become a dimensional zone. Strangely, there were only ordinary butterflies in the valley. There wasn't a single dimensional creature.
"The Primordial Crystal reserves here are very rich. Furthermore, the Primordial Crystal mine is very close to the surface. The purity is very high …" Woods introduced as he led the way. Soon, everyone saw the exposed Primordial Crystal ores on the nearby mountain wall.
An Sheng hurriedly got an expert to carry out an exploration. The preliminary conclusion was even better than what the Cape family had said. The reserves here were likely far more than a few thousand tons.
Woods acted as if nothing had happened, but he was a little uneasy in his heart. He knew that this place looked good, but at a certain time, it would not be as good as it was now.
He now hoped that An Sheng and company would quickly finish the inspection and complete the handover. He didn't want them to notice anything.
Zhou Wen had only taken a casual look and didn't discover any problems. However, Woods's emotions were so intense that it triggered Truth Listener's Voice.
Soon, Zhou Wen knew that the Cape family didn't have any good intentions. This place wasn't as beautiful and peaceful as it looked.
It's no wonder the Cape family doesn't mine it themselves. So there's something strange here. Zhou Wen wasn't angry.
After all, he and An Sheng didn't have any good intentions. The Heavenly Robe wasn't as perfect as it looked.
Without batting an eyelid, Zhou Wen circled the valley. After weighing the pros and cons, he planned on pretending not to know anything and continuing the transaction.
As Woods wandered around Zhou Wen, his heart leaped to his throat, but he pretended not to care. He didn't rush Zhou Wen and An Sheng.
It had to be said that Woods was indeed a shrewd wily old fox. He was extremely worried, but his expression remained unchanged. If not for Truth Listener's ability, Zhou Wen wouldn't have been able to see any problems.
After all, even An Sheng couldn't tell the problem, much less an inexperienced Zhou Wen.
"Mr. Zhou, Adjutant An, is there any problem?" Woods asked after Zhou Wen and An Sheng returned.
An Sheng looked at Zhou Wen. Clearly, he hadn't discovered any problems. He was very satisfied with the Primordial Crystal reserves and purity here, nor did he discover any potential dangers in the dimensional zone.
"Mr. Woods, you should know that I was born and raised in Guide City, right?" Zhou Wen said with a faint smile.
Woods's heart skipped a beat, but his expression didn't change at all. He said with a smile, "I've heard of it. Guide City is indeed a land of outstanding people. To be able to nurture Mr. Zhou and such a Primordial Crystal mine, it's obvious that this place is extraordinary. Unfortunately, our Cape family's roots are in the West District. Otherwise, we would have come here to develop."
