#143 - The Tang family apologized with a smile

Qin Buyao called Wang Fugui, and soon, dishes of Blue Star delicacies were placed on the table.

Everyone looked at the Blue Star delicacies, with their enticing colors, aromas, and flavors, and their taste buds were constantly challenged.

Ye Hui and Wang Dan were secretly drooling, and although the others didn't go that far, they were close.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Qin Buyi quickly said, "Let's eat."

After he said that, everyone, mindful of their image, didn't launch a ravenous attack on the food on the table.

However, everyone present was at least at the Tribulation Transcending Realm.

While maintaining their elegance, the food on the table steadily decreased.

In less than fifteen minutes, the table full of food had been completely cleared.

Wang Fugui, with two servers, efficiently cleared the empty plates from the table.

Then, another table of food was brought up.

After the meal, Wang Fugui had brought up a full ten tables of food before everyone finally stopped.

After the feast, everyone left...

Qin Buyi returned to his residence in Area One and called for Lan Wenhao, saying to him:

"Dean He Yan told me earlier that he is quite interested in the technology of our Area One."

"He plans to promote it within the Great Ming Academy, and I agreed."

"If you have time tomorrow, go and discuss this matter in detail with Dean He Yan."

Lan Wenhao's face lit up when he heard this. Promoting Blue Star's technology and culture was an important matter he had been concerned about recently.

He had originally planned to find an opportunity to mention it to Qin Buyi in the next few days, but he didn't expect Qin Buyi to bring it up first.

The purpose of promoting Blue Star's technology and culture was simple: to earn spirit stones.

Seeing the prosperity of the Heavenly Desolate Realm, even the insignificant Great Ming Dynasty was countless times stronger than Blue Star.

In addition, with Qin Buyi as his backer, Lan Wenhao planned to develop and strengthen the Lan family, first becoming the number one family in the Great Ming.

After becoming the number one family in the Great Ming Dynasty, he would then strive to gain a foothold in the entire Heavenly Desolate Realm.

To accomplish this idea and goal, the most important thing was spirit stones. Without spirit stones, everything was just empty talk.

"Okay, I will go to Dean He Yan tomorrow to implement this matter," Lan Wenhao said.

At this moment, Lan Linglong walked in from outside and said to Qin Buyi, "Brother Qin, someone is looking for you outside."

The Lan family's seniority towards Qin Buyi was a bit chaotic. Lan Linglong called Qin Buyi 'Brother,' while Lan Wenhao addressed Qin Buyi as 'Brother.'

Lan Wenhao was Lan Linglong's third uncle. Someone had previously brought up this matter, but Qin Buyi had laughed it off, saying that everyone should address each other as they saw fit.

Qin Buyi asked Lan Linglong, "Do you know who is outside?"

Lan Linglong said, "He said he is the head of the Tang family from the imperial capital, and he has come to visit you, Brother Qin, specifically to resolve some old grievances."

"The Tang family from the imperial capital?" Qin Buyi recalled everything about the Tang family in his mind.

When he was first teleported to Qingyang City in the Heavenly Desolate Realm by the system, he had formed a grudge with the Tang family of Qingyang City.

As a branch of the Tang family of the imperial capital, its background was extremely troublesome for Qin Buyi, whose cultivation was insufficient at the time.

But now, as Qin Buyi's cultivation increased, the once extremely troublesome Tang family no longer posed any threat to him.

In Qingyang City, when he fought Tang Zhentian, the head of the Qingyang City Tang family branch, at the Golden Core Realm, he was at a disadvantage. Hong Lian helped him and then turned the entire Qingyang City Tang family into nothingness.

If the Tang family hadn't been mentioned again today, Qin Buyi would have forgotten about this matter.

"What is he here for?" Qin Buyi wondered in his heart.

Temporarily putting aside his doubts, Qin Buyi said to Lan Linglong, "Please invite the Tang family head in."

Lan Linglong left for about fifteen minutes and brought in a pot-bellied, smiling middle-aged man from outside.

When the middle-aged man saw Qin Buyi, he said, "I am Tang Yuan, the current head of the Tang family. I have met Instructor Qin Buyi. I have long admired your name, and today I finally have the pleasure of meeting you."

Qin Buyi looked Tang Yuan up and down. Tang Yuan was round all over, and Qin Buyi couldn't help but complain in his heart, "Tang Yuan, more like Tangyuan (glutinous rice ball)."

But on the surface, he wore a smile and said, "Patriarch Tang Yuan is too polite, please sit down."

After Tang Yuan sat down, Qin Buyi continued, "May I ask, Patriarch Tang Yuan, what is the purpose of your visit?"

Tang Yuan looked at Lan Linglong and Lan Wenhao in the room, and hesitated to speak.

As a standard shrewd person, Lan Wenhao immediately said, "Brother Qin, I remember I still have some matters to deal with. Excuse me for now."

After speaking, he pulled Lan Linglong and left.

After Qin Buyi waited for the two to leave, he said, "Patriarch Tang Yuan, now it's just the two of us here. Please speak frankly if you have anything to say."

Tang Yuan didn't speak immediately. He took out a small box from his pocket. Inside the box were neatly arranged ten spatial rings. He reached out and handed them to Qin Buyi.

Qin Buyi didn't take the box and asked Tang Yuan, "Patriarch Tang Yuan, what does this mean?"

Tang Yuan said with a wry smile, "There are no outsiders here. I'll be presumptuous and call you Brother Qin."

"Inside here is a total of three hundred million low-grade spirit stones worth of resources, which are given to Brother Qin as compensation."

"After Brother Qin annihilated my Tang family branch in Qingyang City, my Tang family sent people to inquire about Brother Qin's whereabouts many times, wanting to find an opportunity for revenge."

"Unexpectedly, in these past few years, the people sent by the family didn't get any useful information. When we learned about Brother Qin's news again,"

"It was after Brother Qin came to the Great Ming Academy and consecutively beheaded three senior instructors."

Speaking of this, Tang Yuan looked frightened, "Fortunately, the people sent by the family back then were useless and didn't find Brother Qin, otherwise things would have been terrible."

"This time, I came specifically to apologize to Brother Qin and to resolve our grievances, hoping Brother Qin won't mind."

Tang Yuan couldn't afford to be afraid. The momentum Qin Buyi showed was too fierce.

He had just arrived at the Great Ming Academy and had consecutively beheaded three senior instructors. Before he had calmed down for a few days, he had challenged the other five senior instructors in a row and won all of them.

What shocked him the most was Qin Buyi's Tribulation Transcending scene, triggering a Great Ascension Realm-level thunder tribulation at the Tribulation Transcending Realm, which was truly terrifying.

Fortunately, the people sent by the Tang family didn't find Qin Buyi, otherwise, once a substantial conflict occurred, it would be impossible to resolve the hatred.

To provoke such a terrifying enemy, Tang Yuan estimated that he would have to sleep with his eyes open, fearing that his head would be moved at any time.

To be honest, the Tang family was at a disadvantage in this matter. The branch was destroyed, and not even a single hair was left on the scene.

But the head of the Tang family was smiling and apologizing in front of the person who had destroyed the Tang family branch.

The root cause of all this was the difference in strength between the two sides.

Qin Buyi was already so fierce at the Combination Realm. After breaking through to the Tribulation Transcending Realm, who knew what his combat power was now.

The Tang family's peak combat power was only at the early Great Ascension Realm. It was really unwise to provoke such a promising enemy.

After listening to Tang Yuan's explanation, Qin Buyi immediately understood what Tang Yuan was thinking.
