Chapter 140

The thing they are best at is investment.

As the head of the Shang family, Shang Huaimin's investment experience is countless.

Investments have wins and losses, but most were within Shang Huaimin's expectations.

And the investment he is making now:

killing the Yan family's fifth-advancement practitioner, siding with Li Yao, helping the Silver Wolf Guild.

Any one of these three things was unanimously rejected by the Shang family's management.

But who told him to be the family head?

He made this investment despite all opposition, but even he had no certainty at this very moment.

"Investment is essentially gambling."

Shang Huaimin looked at the light flickering on the tenth floor.

"Whether it's a win or a loss depends on whether you can walk out of here."

Immediately, Shang Huaimin laughed at himself.

Li Yao stepped into the tenth floor alone.

For him, isn't it also a gamble?

I'm old after all; my own courage is not as good as a greenhorn's.

Soloing a lord-level monster,

you really dare!

"Clack!"

Just at this moment,

the sound of glass breaking rang out.

The woman in the martial robe who had been standing by the floor-to-ceiling window disappeared before everyone's eyes.

Everyone hurriedly rushed to the window, looking out through the broken floor-to-ceiling window.

"Is Senior Xue annoyed by our noise and unwilling to stay here?"

"I guess Nie Yuan's actions angered Senior Xue; after all, she should have come for Nie Yuan."

"Alas, what a pity."

"That's right, being favored by Senior Xue, Nie Yuan could directly become Senior Xue's disciple after the Martial Exam. It's too much of a pity for such a genius to die in the Tower of Heaven!"

"Anyway, let's follow down first."

Everyone hurriedly jumped down from the broken floor-to-ceiling window.

Before they could walk to Senior Xue's side, Senior Xue's sharp voice rang out.

"The tenth floor of the Tower of Heaven is of great importance."

"Give you ten minutes."

"Destroy all photography tools around and disperse everyone."

"Hmm?"

Everyone didn't react for a moment.

The tenth floor is indeed of great importance, but one has to be able to clear it!

Could it be

Senior Xue thinks Nie Yuan can clear it successfully!?

Everyone immediately grasped the key point.

Nie Yuan's strength certainly couldn't clear the tenth floor, but it's different if Senior Xue favors him.

Who is Senior Xue?

Xue Jiulan, the youngest dean of the Jingyu Martial Academy, the youngest town-defending general of the Dragon Nation.

If Senior Xue gave him some heaven-defying item before Nie Yuan entered the Tower of Heaven,

clearing the tenth floor is not impossible at all!

The most excited person in the crowd was the Nie family head.

He hurriedly summoned his Nie family subordinates and began to disperse the surrounding crowd.

Little master, there is more to this chapter, please click the next page to continue reading, the following is even more exciting!

Everyone looked at the Nie family head with envy.

Being favored by Senior Xue is equivalent to being favored by the Federation. The Nie family is about to produce a true dragon.

"Damn luck!"

Yan Xinghong cursed in dissatisfaction.

Out of respect for Xue Jiulan's face, he also began to disperse the surrounding crowd.

By the way,

why haven't those kids from Yan Yue's team come out yet?

Killing a little girl who hasn't even had her second advancement, and they've been delayed for so long.

It seems I'll have to train them well when I get back.

And just at this moment,

a flash of light shone below the Tower of Heaven.

Several figures appeared before everyone's eyes.

Besides the Shang family members, there was also a gun-wielding youth in a disheveled state.

"Nie Yuan? Out so soon?"

The Nie family head ran to Nie Yuan's side in surprise, holding his hand excitedly:

"How is it? What is the reward for the tenth floor? Show me quickly!"

"Also! What did Senior Xue give you? Take it out together; we'll return it later. After all, she helped you clear the tenth floor; one must know how to be grateful."

"What?"

Nie Yuan looked at his father in confusion.

How come I don't understand a word you're saying?

But none of that matters.

Nie Yuan's mouth drooped, and he said with a mournful face: "Dad, I've disappointed you; the perfect advancement failed again!"

"What!?"

"What did you say?!"

At this time,

Shang Yana ran to Shang Huaimin's side.

Shang Huaimin rubbed her head dotingly.

"How was the advancement?"

"Hehe, lucky enough to have a perfect advancement."

"That's good, as expected of my daughter." Shang Huaimin laughed, then his face changed, and he asked in a low voice, "Did you encounter anyone from the Yan family?"

"Yes."

Shang Yana nodded, the image of Li Yao holding her appearing in her mind, and her face turned red with shame.

"Thanks to Classmate Li Yao, otherwise Dad might not have been able to see me."

Shang Huaimin didn't notice the blush on his daughter's face, only hearing the last sentence.

In an instant,

the powerful aura of a sixth-advancement practitioner enveloped Yan Xinghong like a storm.

Yan Xinghong is at most just the younger brother of the Yan family head.

He himself hasn't completed the sixth-advancement breakthrough quest.

Under this aura, he couldn't help but feel his throat tighten, and he said with a fierce look but a weak heart:

"What do you want to do?"

"Don't forget, this is inside Qinghai City!"

Shang Huaimin grinned.

"I don't want to do anything."

"I just want to tell you, you don't have to wait for that group of people from the Yan family anymore." ===== CHAPTER 142 =====
