"Ziyi, you're here?"
Sitting on the main seat, the handsome middle-aged man was overjoyed to see Zhang Ziyi and immediately stood up. However, when he saw Lin Tian, who was held by Zhang Ziyi, his expression changed slightly.
"Ziyi, who is this?" The handsome middle-aged man asked immediately. His gaze was sharp as he stared at Lin Tian, as if he wanted to see through him completely.
It was just a pity that when it came to Lin Tian, apart from being ordinary, it was still ordinary.
He didn't find anything special about him.
Zhang Ziyi seemed to have felt that everyone's gazes were a little strange. She also realized that her current actions seemed to be a little … inappropriate. Her pretty face blushed and she immediately let go of Lin Tian's wrist. After that, she blushed and said to the handsome middle-aged man, "Father, this is Lin Tian. He's the person who saved us earlier."
This middle-aged man was none other than Zhang Ziyi's father, the head of the Zhang family, Zhang Xiong.
"Oh?"
Hearing this, not only Zhang Xiong, but the others couldn't help but raise their brows and look at Lin Tian in surprise. They didn't expect that this seemingly weak young man was actually the one who helped Zhang Ziyi block the beast tide and Fan Wei.
However, they soon had the same question that Uncle Zhang had in mind.
Was this sickly young man really that powerful?
One had to know that Fan Wei's strength was definitely top-notch in the Phenomenon Realm.
If it was in the past, he would definitely be able to squeeze into the Divine Continent Prodigy List easily.
If one wanted to win against him, one would at least have the strength of an Immortal Realm king, right?
However, this young man named Lin Tian in front of them, not to mention a king, from the aura he exuded, everyone even suspected that he hadn't reached the spiritual sea yet.
After all, Lin Tian looked too weak.
He was like a person who had been ill for a long time.
Seeing everyone's look of disbelief, Zhang Ziyi couldn't be bothered to explain further. She said to Zhang Xiong, "Father, Lin Tian is injured and needs to be treated with precious medicine."
Hearing this, everyone's reaction was the same as Uncle Zhang's. They suddenly understood.
It turned out that he was injured …
Zhang Xiong sized up Lin Tian and didn't see anything wrong with him. After a moment of silence, he said indifferently, "Since you were injured while protecting Ziyi, our Zhang family naturally can't turn a blind eye to it."
"How about this, if you need any precious medicine, Zi Yi, you can bring him to the storeroom to pick it out later."
Even though the treasured medicine was precious, it was nothing compared to his daughter's life. So, Zhang Xiong agreed very straightforwardly. Moreover, he also wanted to see exactly how formidable Lin Tian who had recovered from his injuries was.
After all, with Lin Tian's age, just the fact that he could suppress Fan Wei was enough for Zhang Xiong to take him seriously.
However, after he finished speaking, Zhang Xiong realized that his daughter did not move. Instead, she seemed to be hesitating.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Xiong could not help asking curiously, "Ziyi, what's wrong?"
Hearing this, Zhang Ziyi bit her red lips. She glanced around with a troubled expression.
Originally, she was prepared to discuss this matter with Zhang Xiong before making a decision. She did not expect so many people to be present today.
One had to know that the Perfected Persons' Precious Medicine was the Zhang family's ultimate treasure. Even when her father almost died when he broke through to become a Ruler, he was not willing to use it.
Although she was confident that she could convince Zhang Xiong, she was not confident that she could convince the Zhang family's elders present.
Therefore, Zhang Ziyi did not know whether she should say it or not.
Seeing her hesitation, Zhang Xiong became even more curious. He could not help but ask, "Ziyi, if there's anything, just say it. Everyone here is from the Zhang family. What's there to be afraid of?"
"That's right, Ziyi. We've all watched you grow up. Don't you trust us?" The Zhang family's elders sitting on both sides also nodded.
Hearing this, Zhang Ziyi hesitated for a moment.
In the end, she decided to tell them her thoughts.
In any case, these people would find out sooner or later.
"It's like this …"
Zhang Ziyi took a deep breath and said slowly, "I'm going to let Lin Tian represent the Zhang family in the competition the day after tomorrow."
"Let him go?"
Hearing this, the Zhang family's elders widened their eyes as if they could not believe it.
Zhang Xiong also frowned and said unhappily, "Ziyi, don't mess around. I know your friend is powerful, but the competition in two days is not a game."
"Your friend … He's injured. How can he do it?"
"So, I want to ask for something from my father. As long as I have this, Lin Tian will be able to recover immediately."
"What is it?"
Zhang Xiong was stunned and puzzled.
Did the Zhang family have such a magical thing?
The Zhang family's elders also looked at Zhang Ziyi in confusion. Zhang Ziyi said slowly, "I want the Nine-colored Divine Cultivating Flower."
"What flower?"
Zhang Xiong was stunned at first.
Then, he immediately reacted. He widened his eyes and looked at Zhang Ziyi in disbelief. "You want the Nine-colored Divine Cultivating Flower?"
"Yes, Lin Tian's mental injury can only be healed by the Nine-colored Divine Cultivating Flower," Zhang Ziyi said without hesitation.
"Impossible."
Sure enough, as Zhang Ziyi had expected, before Zhang Xiong spoke, these elders reacted immediately. An extremely senior elder with a face full of wrinkles said angrily, "This is the family treasure of our Zhang family. Even the family head almost died back then, but he didn't use it. If you want to give it away, this old man will never agree!"
Zhang Ziyi didn't pay attention to him. She looked at Zhang Xiong hopefully and said, "Father, you have to think clearly. The Nine-Colored Spirit-Nourishing Flower is really important, but this time, our Zhang family can't be at the bottom again. Otherwise, I'm afraid we won't even need to wait for the next session to fall out of the top five families of Sky Snow City."
"Sigh, I know that too."
Zhang Xiong could not help but sigh. He shook his head and said, "But if I give you the Nine-colored Divine Cultivating Flower, can you guarantee that the Zhang family will not be last?"
"This …"
Zhang Ziyi was speechless.
She did not dare to guarantee this kind of thing.
"I dare!"
At this moment, Lin Tian, who had been silent since the beginning, finally spoke. He looked at Zhang Xiong calmly and said, "As long as you give me the Nine-colored Divine Cultivating Flower, I will help you take back the first place."
Hearing this, before Zhang Xiong could say anything, an elder of the Zhang family could not help but say, "Kid, you look steady. I did not expect you to be so arrogant when you speak!"
"Do you know what kind of lineup the other four forces have in this competition?"
"I know that three of them have already broken through to the Immortal Realm. As for the remaining one, even if he has not broken through, he will be on the verge of breaking through. How can you guarantee that the Zhang family will not be last?"
"Who gave you the courage to say that we will take first place?"
Hearing this, Zhang Ziyi could not help but turn pale. She said in disbelief, "Three of the external helpers they invited have already broken through to the Immortal Realm?"
"Yes."
Zhang Xiong nodded helplessly.
They had also thought that the external helpers invited by the other four families would be similar to Fan Wei.
After all, their rankings on the Northern Plains' Prodigy Roll were similar.
However, they did not expect each of them to be so strong.
In just a few months, they had broken through to the Immortal Realm.
This made them feel a great deal of pressure.
Especially at this critical moment, Fan Wei did such a thing. This made the Zhang family even worse.
