It was already the fourth day since he arrived at the Tiandu City. Ye Mo could not stay any longer and wanted to go out for some fresh air.
He walked along the corridor leading to the living room. "Miss, why are you so impulsive? Spending 4,500 Mixed Energy Pills to buy Ye Xiao's 100-year Pearl Pill? When the master comes out of seclusion, he will definitely be angered to death by you. If not for Second Miss telling me, I would still be in the dark."
Elder Tong Shan sat in the living room, his face filled with anger and anxiety.
4,500 Mixed Energy Pills was not a small amount for the Tong Family.
"This person has already become a Second Order Sealing Artist at such a young age. His future is limitless and he is worth our investment."
Tong Lan's expression did not change as she said calmly.
"Investment? Miss, you are underestimating the situation. People like him will leave sooner or later. Do you think he will return to repay us after he becomes successful in the future? Now that the mirage is about to appear, we can definitely hire some Energy Shaping Ninth Realm warriors for the 4,500 Mixed Energy Pills. This way, our chances of winning the Kraken Mansion will be higher. "
Elder Tong Shan sighed.
"As for the 4500 Mixed Energy Pills, if Father asks, just tell him that it was my idea. Now that the seal is almost ready, the Tong Family has over 50 Energy Shaping Fifth Realm disciples, over 30 Energy Shaping Sixth Realm disciples, and 10 Energy Shaping Seventh Realm fighters. It should be enough to deal with the Tie and Mu Families."
As Tong Lan spoke, she could not help but frown. There were quite a number of disciples, but only a few of them were at the peak of their strength.
Tong Yao was in the Energy Shaping Eighth Realm while she herself was in the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm. As for Elder Tong Shan, he was half a step into the True Energy Realm and had a guard in the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm.
The Fata Morgana was a battle for the mansion. It was not a matter of numbers. She had prepared so many disciples just to cover the rear. Those who could actually enter the mansion had to be at least in the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm. Otherwise, they would be killed before they could even enter.
"The Tie Family and the Mu Family have three Energy Shaping Ninth Realm warriors and two who are half a step into the True Energy Realm. We need to rope in a few Energy Shaping Ninth Realm warriors. Otherwise, once the mirage appears, we won't have much of an advantage in fighting for the Kraken's cave."
As Elder Tong Shan spoke, a worried expression appeared on his face.
"Look for him?" Tong Lan recalled the scene at the Jubao Tower. For Ye Mo to be able to send Tie Ruyu flying with a single slap, his strength was definitely in the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm. But soon after, she shook her head and dispelled that thought.
"I will think of a way to find a powerful expert."
As Tong Lan spoke, she left the Tong Manor.
Ye Mo frowned when he saw that, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he returned to his room.
"Are you really not going to help them?"
Linger asked after returning to her room.
"If I help them, I will become the target of the Tie and Mu families. If I act alone, I will be in the dark while they are in the light. Wouldn't it be easier for me to help them?"
Ye Mo shrugged his shoulders and said.
Ye Mo was moving alone. With his strength in the Energy Shaping Seventh Realm, he would definitely become the most inconspicuous existence. Be it sneak attacks or secretly helping the Tong Family, it would be much easier.
On the other hand, Ye Mo, an Energy Shaping Seventh Realm fighter, following the Tong Family into the Kraken Mansion would definitely attract the attention of others.
Comparing the two, Ye Mo would naturally choose the former.
When the morning sun broke through the shackles of the clouds and shone on the Tiandu Sea, the Tong Family Manor was in an uproar. The noise coming from outside pulled Ye Mo out of his meditative state.
Ye Mo opened his eyes and opened the window. Then, he saw Tong Lan and a young man standing in the front yard of the Tong Manor.
The young man looked to be in his twenties. Carrying a fiery red long sword on his back, he followed behind Tong Lan with a playful smile on his face.
As for the Tong Family disciples, they were all sizing up this young man, their faces filled with slight anger.
Some of the disciples even started fighting. However, they were all defeated by the young man with a single move.
"That man should be in the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm. Could he be the expert invited by Tong Lan?"
Ye Mo asked doubtfully. Then, he heard a knock on the door. After closing the window, Ye Mo walked over and opened the door.
He saw Tong Yao standing in front of him with her brows furrowed, as if she had something to say but couldn't say it.
Seeing this, Ye Mo felt very conflicted.
"Second Miss Tong, do you have something to say to me?"
Ye Mo was the first to break the silence.
Hearing that, Tong Yao raised her head and looked straight at Ye Mo. After a slight hesitation, she said, "I hope you can forgive me for what happened earlier. Tong Yao apologizes to you."
Tong Yao bowed slightly towards Ye Mo, her attitude extremely sincere.
This was completely unlike the Tong Second Young Mistress that Ye Mo had met a few days ago.
"Second Miss Tong, if you have something to say, just say it."
Ye Mo said.
This Tong Yao must have something on her mind. However, with Ye Mo's shallow understanding of her, he couldn't guess what it was.
"That day when you followed my sister to the Jubao Pavilion, I secretly followed and saw you fight. I hope that you can defeat Ling Xiao and replace him."
Tong Yao pleaded.
"Oh?"
That Ling Xiao was most likely the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm expert from before. He was probably the external help that they had invited.
Ye Mo could feel that Ling Xiao's strength was probably no weaker than Tang Malong, Tang Hao's son. With such strength, he would definitely be a great help to the Tong Family. Ye Mo couldn't understand why they wanted him to replace him.
"Second Miss Tong, why? That Ling Xiao's strength is not bad, probably even above your sister's. He will definitely be a great help to the Tong Family in the fight for the Kraken Mansion."
Ye Mo smiled slightly as he said.
Thinking of Ling Xiao, a hint of anger flashed across Tong Yao's eyes.
"You know the strength of the Tong Family. Compared to the other two families, we are the weakest. Sister is determined to win the fight for the Kraken Mansion this time. As for that Ling Xiao, do you know the condition that he agreed to help us fight for the Kraken Mansion this time? As long as we successfully obtain the treasures in the Kraken Mansion, he wants sister to marry him. "
"I see."
Ye Mo was somewhat stunned as well. No wonder those Tong Family disciples looked at Ling Xiao as if they had seen a ghost.
"That Ling Xiao comes from one of the weakest families in the Tiandu City. However, a genius like him emerged from them. Our Tong Family doesn't have any male descendants. If we successfully obtain the Kraken Mansion this time, my sister will have to marry into the Ling Family. Wouldn't all the treasures that we have fought so hard for be given to the Ling Family?"
As Tong Yao spoke, an angry expression appeared on her face.
"Looks like your sister had no choice but to invite Ling Xiao."
Ye Mo shrugged, patted Tong Yao's shoulder, and said, "Bring me there now. I will let him know that with his strength, he is still not qualified to help the Tong Family."
