Chapter 100: The Thunder Tree

“Hum.”

In the vast court, a low murmur of discussion had arisen among the people; everyone had been bewildered.

What had just happened?

What had been inside that bottle that could move Lin Pingfeng and Lin Yi so deeply?

Even when Wu Fa had given a gift worth ten million Obsidian coins, it hadn’t shocked them like this.

Everyone had noticed that Lin Pingfeng and Lin Yi had genuinely valued Wang Xiaofei’s birthday gift from the bottom of their hearts.

What could it be that they valued it so much?

Especially the part where Lin Yi had placed Lin Yue’er’s hand into Wang Xiaofei’s. Was this an official acknowledgment of Wang Xiaofei as his future son-in-law?

Lin Yi hadn’t said, and no one had asked.

However, the way many people looked at Wang Xiaofei had changed.

The most uncomfortable had been Liu Tang.

Just now, he had been the first to jump out and mock Wang Xiaofei, wanting to make him look foolish in front of everyone.

But now, not only had Wang Xiaofei not embarrassed himself, but he had also received extraordinary attention from Lin Pingfeng and his son.

He had felt as if someone had been standing in front of him, continuously slapping his face.

While slapping, they had also been scolding: “Still acting arrogant, huh? Still trying to stand out?”

The feeling had been extremely uncomfortable.

Unconsciously, Liu Tang’s face had turned red, especially when he saw how strangely others were looking at him. Many people had wanted to laugh but had held it in. Liu Tang had wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Wu Fa’s gaze had been deep.

Originally, he had only thought that Wang Xiaofei was extraordinarily talented. Now it seemed that he also had some background. The next time Wang Xiaofei left Yaori City, he must be killed in one strike.

However, what had Lin Pingfeng received? Wu Fa had really wanted to know, but judging by the looks of Lin Pingfeng and his son, they clearly didn’t want to say.

The girls next to Lin Yue’er, who had been ready to enjoy the show, were now all envious and jealous. Even the most foolish could see that Wang Xiaofei had received the approval of Lin Yi and the elder.

And some of the smarter younger generation of the Lin family had already made up their minds to maintain a good relationship with Wang Xiaofei in the future.

After Wang Xiaofei’s birthday wishes, it had been the turn of the Lin family’s little kids. One by one, they had hopped around, their voices crisp as they recited birthday wishes. One little guy had even asked Lin Pingfeng for a gift, making everyone burst into laughter.

“Hey, what exactly did you give my grandfather as a birthday gift?” At this point, Lin Yue’er could no longer contain her curiosity and had quietly asked Wang Xiaofei.

This had been outside their plan, and how Wang Xiaofei had found such a good item in such a short time had also surprised Lin Yue’er.

Wang Xiaofei had given a slight smile and had communicated through soul transmission, telling Lin Yue’er about the origin and function of the item.

As for what the item should be called, Wang Xiaofei hadn’t known.

However, it had contained an extremely surging life force, with the function of prolonging life. Wang Xiaofei had estimated that it was likely concocted by the disciples of the Omnipotent Sect according to some secret method, and would have been offered to their Omnipotent God in the future.

According to Wang Xiaofei’s estimation, that bottle of mysterious elixir could at least extend Lin Pingfeng’s life by a hundred years.

A hundred years of extended life.

Could Lin Pingfeng and Lin Yi not be excited when the Lin family could potentially gain another Martial King Realm practitioner because of this?

That’s why they had treated Wang Xiaofei in such a manner.

Originally, Wang Xiaofei had planned to keep it for his parents.

However, given the special circumstances of the day, he had given it to Lin Pingfeng.

As for Wang Long and Gu Muxue, Wang Xiaofei had been confident that he would find even better treasures for his parents in the years to come.

Upon hearing that Wang Xiaofei had given the gift intended for his parents to her grandfather, Lin Yue’er had been very touched and had held Wang Xiaofei’s hand throughout the birthday banquet.

Because Lin Pingfeng and Lin Yi had been so excited, the entire banquet had proceeded very smoothly and joyously.

After the banquet had ended, all the guests had said their farewells to Lin Yi. However, Lin Yi had communicated through soul transmission, asking Wang Xiaofei to stay behind.

Inside a secret chamber.

Lin Yi had solemnly taken out a treasure from his storage ring.

Upon seeing this treasure, Wang Xiaofei’s eyes had instantly widened, feeling as if his soul had started to tremble.

It had been a sapling-like treasure, its entire body a pale silver color. Between its branches and throughout the tree, lightning had pervaded, emitting ‘crackling’ sounds that made one’s heart palpitate.

This item had been the best auxiliary cultivation item for the Heavenly Dao of Thunder and Lightning that Wang Xiaofei had ever seen.

Although it still couldn’t compare to the Thunder Palm Technique, it had been far better than the ‘Thunder Sphere’ that Elder Liehuo had given him in the Treasure Pavilion.

“Xiaofei, this is for you,” Lin Yi had said.

“For me?” Wang Xiaofei had been somewhat surprised. He couldn’t determine the exact value of this item, but he had estimated that it must be worth at least a hundred thousand Gold coins.

“This is too valuable,” Wang Xiaofei had quickly said.

“Hehe,” Lin Yi had just smiled and said, “Actually, giving it to you is the same as keeping it in our Lin family. Don’t be polite.” He had patted Wang Xiaofei’s shoulder.

Immediately, Wang Xiaofei’s mouth had widened into a grin.

“What, giving it to me is the same as keeping it in the Lin family? Haha, is this the rhythm of a father-in-law acknowledging his son-in-law?”

If placing Lin Yue’er’s hand into Wang Xiaofei’s hand during the banquet had been a silent hint,

Then Lin Yi’s current words had made it clear: the Lin family had acknowledged the relationship between Wang Xiaofei and Lin Yue’er.

Actually, Lin Yi had also been a smart man.

Wang Xiaofei’s extraordinary talent was something that Yaori City had never heard of before. Coupled with the mysterious treasure that Wang Xiaofei had been able to produce, and the mysterious background he had, his future achievements were limitless.

Moreover, with the support of Elder Lei Shan, Dean Gu Tong, and their Lin family in the background, such a prodigy was definitely worth the investment for the Lin family.

Therefore, Lin Yi had treated Wang Xiaofei without any stinginess.

“In that case, I would be disrespectful to refuse,” Wang Xiaofei had nodded and said.

“It should be so!” Lin Yi had responded.

“Hahaha,” both Wang Xiaofei and Lin Yi had burst into laughter, both in very good spirits.

That night, upon returning to Tianlong Academy, Wang Xiaofei had eagerly taken out the ‘Thunder Tree’ and started cultivating the Heavenly Dao of Thunder and Lightning. He had cultivated for a full ten days. During these ten days, Wang Xiaofei’s progress in the heavenly dao had been incredibly rapid.

Ten days later, in Wang Xiaofei’s court, Jin Chan had been sitting across from him. The two brothers had been drinking fine wine and laughing heartily as they chatted.

“Ah, it’s such a pity. I was in seclusion at the time and didn’t get to see the scene where you slapped Liu Tang’s face,” Jinchan had said.

Regret had been written all over his face.

Just think about how satisfying that must have been.

Liu Tang had jumped out, wanting to step on the boss.

However, he hadn’t expected to step into a big pit, losing all his face in front of so many people.

Hahaha, that’s what you get for showing off and offending our boss for no reason.

Jin Chan had laughed heartily, taking big gulps of wine.

“You,” Wang Xiaofei had said with a faint smile.

“Boss, I’ll be better than Liu Tang sooner or later,” Jin Chan had declared.

“Oh, I’ll be waiting then,” Wang Xiaofei had said.
