Ye Jinlan left Xiao Jinting’s room and went to see Ye Shengxue.
“Xiao Jinting wants the key to the Tower of Babel?” Ye Shengxue asked.
Ye Jinlan nodded and said, “Yes. The key to the Tower of Babel is very important, and I dare not make the decision, so I come to you.”
Ye Shengxue narrowed her eyes and said, “Give it to him.”
Ye Jinlan looked at Ye Shengxue in surprise and said, “Grandmother, the Ye family has only two keys to the Tower of Babel.”
Ye Shengxue smiled and said, “I’ve heard of Xiao Jinting, whose family is all Golden Core cultivators. They would rival us if they had some top-grade cultivators.”
“If Xiao Jinting is able to defeat Elder Yuyao, it is a good bargain to use a key to the Tower of Babel to pull him over. Of course, the premise is that he has to defeat Elder Yuyao, and our family secures the seat because of him.”
Ye Jinlan nodded and said, “I got it.”
…
Soon, Ye Jinlan brought the new contract to Xiao Jinting.
“Father, the Ye family actually agrees to your request. I thought it would take some time, but they agree so quickly. That’s surprising,” Xiao Xiaojin said lazily.
Xiao Jinting said indifferently, “It’s a good bargain for them. Look at this clause, which says I can only get the key when the Ye family secures the seat because of me. That means if the Ye family wins two rounds, I get nothing even if I defeat Elder Yuyao.”
Xiao Xiaojin blinked and said, “These guys are really cunning!”
“You can’t say they are cunning, as the key to the Tower of Babel is very important. Why will they give me the key if I can’t give them what they want in return?” Xiao Jinting said.
“That’s right. Father, are you confident to deal with Elder Yuyao?”
Xiao Jinting said indifferently, “Don’t worry. He has a few demonic beasts, but I have more.”
“You are right.” ‘Father has a nest of scorpions and another nest of Golden Bees. Among them, there are six scorpions and eight Golden Bees at Golden Core, which will definitely overwhelm those of Elder Yuyao.’
…
The highly anticipated competition of the Business Alliance finally began.
The twelve great families of the alliance all dressed up for the occasion. Although the Nascent Soul ancestors of the Xie, Cao and Miao families did not come, the heads of the three families held their heads up high proudly.
Xiao Jinting wore Ye Family’s uniform and joined the team.
Ye Mi, the Peak Golden Core cultivator of the Ye Family, walked slowly with wrinkles on his face. In order to keep pace with the old man, Xiao Jinting had to walk slowly.
Although Ye Mi seemed to be dying, Xiao Jinting didn’t underestimate him.
The ancestor of the Ye family was said to have tried to advance to Nascent Soul. Although he failed, he was much stronger than ordinary Peak Golden Core Cultivators after he went through the trial.
Xiao Jinting noticed that several young cultivators of the Ye family pointed at him and gossiped, and he felt embarrassed. After he arrived at the Ye house, he had been hidden or ignored, therefore many members of the Ye family didn’t seem to know him yet.
Xiao Xiaojin also put on Ye Family’s uniform and sneaked into the team to watch the fun.
The members of the twelve families got seated.
The Xie family was hosting the competition of the Business Alliance this time. Xiao Jinting was amazed by the weird clothes of the host.
After the host droned like an insect at the altar, the competition began.
“It’s time to have the centurial competition of the Business Alliance. In order to ensure the vitality of the alliance, we have to keep the strongest and exclude the weakest. I will announce that the competition has begun…”
“The Hong family would like to challenge the Ye family.”
Right after the host spoke, a cultivator in green jumped into the arena.
Xiao Jinting noticed that the members of the Ye family got angry.
He rubbed his nose, realizing that this cultivator was Xu Qingshan, a Gold Core that the Ye family had spent a lot of effort to recruit. It was said that the Ye family had even found a pure Yin female cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage to be an assistant for Xu Qingshan. In the end, all the efforts were wasted
A Pure Yin Female Cultivator was a female cultivator who was born at the Yin hour on the Yin day in the Yin month during the Yin year. She had a special physique, and the man who cultivated with her would make a huge progress in his strength.
Xiao Jinting turned to look at Ye Jinlan, who clenched her fists with cold lights in her eyes.
Xiao Jinting stroked his hair and felt grumpy. Both Xu Qingshan and him were cultivators recruited by the Ye family, but the former was well provided when he was in the Ye house, while he was ignored by the family. The Ye family was blind.
