Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The atmosphere turned awkward.
An Lan felt unhappy.
Was he poor?
Bullshit!
As a heaven-stage martial warrior, how could he be poor? He wasn’t poor. No way!
!!
This bastard was framing him. He was damaging his reputation. What an evil fellow.
He glared at Cao Guan, but he didn’t release his aura. It was quite strange. No one knew why he didn’t do it.
If he did exert pressure on Cao Guan, who was just a celestial-stage martial warrior, Cao Guan would have been pushed to the ground.
Cao Guan was puzzled when he saw An Lan’s gaze.
What the hell?
He was speaking to Wang Teng. Why was this strange man in a gray gown and mask glaring at him when Wang Teng didn’t have any reaction?
“Master Cao, are you here to find a treasure too? Are you poor? Are the people here poor too?” Wang Teng smiled calmly even when Cao Guan was mocking him.

The people around them turned and glared at them dangerously.
All kinds of people could be found here, good or bad, and from many different races. Not all of them knew Cao Guan, so naturally, they wouldn’t be afraid of this celestial-stage martial warrior.
Cao Guan’s expression changed. He felt goosebumps on his head. He felt like a small and weak little lamp entering the den of a pack of wolves.
“You’re talking nonsense. I didn’t mean it that way,” Cao Guan refuted instantly. Cold sweat dripped down his head.
“What do you mean then?” Wang Teng probed.
Cao Guan: …
Are you done!
He shouldn’t have teased this bastard. He wasn’t Wang Teng’s match!
“Is he from the Cao family?” An Lan asked. He didn’t know if he should laugh or cry.
“He’s Cao Hongtu’s son.” Wang Teng laughed too.
“I heard that Cao Hongtu has a son and a daughter who reached the cosmos stage. I don’t think it’s this stupid guy, right?” An Lan shook his head.
“Oh, he has a son and a daughter at the cosmos stage?” Wang Teng exclaimed in surprise.
“It’s nothing strange. If you’re willing to put in the resources, anyone with a little talent can reach the cosmos stage,” An Lan replied.
“What’s with this Cao Guan?” Wang Teng was speechless.
“Isn’t it obvious? He’s stupid,” An Lan asked him back.
The two of them conversed calmly without any regard for Cao Guan.
“Stupid?” Cao Guan’s face turned black. This word kept resounding in his mind.
Someone said that he was stupid!

This was unacceptable!
As the oldest son, he felt aggrieved that he was surpassed by his younger brother and sister. Now, someone was mocking him in broad daylight. He trembled in anger.
He got scolded by Cao Hongtu because of Wang Teng and his right to deal with family affairs was taken away. He was forced to self-reflect in his room. Today, he pleaded with his father for a long time before he got the chance to come out and get some fresh air. Coincidentally, he met his enemy, Wang Teng, and wanted to humiliate him to take revenge. Yet, in the end, he was the one getting dissed.
But Wang Teng wasn’t to be blamed. An Lan had a sharp tongue too. Cao Guan called him poor, so he replied to him with a ‘stupid.’
Were all heaven-stage martial warriors this down to earth?
“Don’t get angry. We’re just telling the truth.” Wang Teng didn’t mind cooperating with An Lan. He glanced at Cao Guan as he spoke.
“Pfft!”
Peals of soft laughter were heard around them, igniting Cao Guan’s anger.
“You’re looking for death!” Cao Guan’s face turned red. He clenched his fist and wanted to teach Wang Teng a lesson immediately.
This was infuriating. He couldn’t bear it.
“Enough!” At this moment, a fair and smooth hand appeared on Cao Guan’s shoulder, along with a seductive and oppressive voice.
Cao Guan froze. He was like a deflated balloon as he turned to look at the person in shock.
Wang Teng raised his eyebrows and glanced at the tall lady who had suddenly appeared behind Cao Guan.
The lady was beautiful and slender. Her tight-fitting purple battle uniform accentuated her figure. There was a large blade behind her.
The blade was almost two-thirds of her height. There was no sheath, so the sharp blade was pasted right against her back and her hips.
Wang Teng was afraid that the long blade would cut her pants and…
Cosmos stage!
Wang Teng saw the lady’s cultivation level immediately after activating his Spiritual Sight. He was staggered.
“Why are you here?” Cao Guan frowned and asked.
“Why can’t I be here?” Cao Jiaojiao swayed over and tilted her head to look at him.
“I don’t mean it that way.” Cao Guan seemed scared. “Why are you back?”
“I had to come back.” Cao Jiaojiao scoffed. “You’re really bold. Did you just create trouble after you got released?”
“You!” Cao Guan’s expression turned ugly. He was infuriated by his younger sister’s words.
Cao Jiaojiao ignored him and looked at Wang Teng. “Are you that Wang Teng?”
“Don’t you know that you should introduce yourself before asking others for their name?” Wang Teng replied calmly.
“You have quite a temper, little handsome guy.” Cao Jiaojiao giggled elegantly.
“Little? You used that word wrongly. How am I little?” Wang Teng chuckled too.
Cao Jiaojiao was stunned. She glanced at the lower part of Wang Teng’s body and said in a provocative tone, “We’ll know if it’s little when we see it.”
“Why don’t we find a secluded corner and have some interaction?” Wang Teng suggested.
“F**k, are you looking for death?” Cao Guan turned green in anger.
He didn’t like Cao Jiaojiao, but that was still his sister. Wang Teng was teasing her right in front of him. This was too much.
Any man wouldn’t be able to stand it.
“Shut up!” Cao Jiaojiao’s face turned cold. She said with contempt, “You don’t have the right to interfere in my business.”

Cao Guan: …
Wang Teng’s gaze flickered when he saw this scene.
This family is quite interesting!
“You seem confident.” Cao Jiaojiao’s gaze landed on Wang Teng again. The coldness on her face had disappeared and her seductive smile was back.
“I am confident since I’m facing the Cao family.” Wang Teng smiled too.
I know how to smile too. Let’s see whose smile is better!
The anger was apparent on Cao Guan’s face. Although he wanted to shout at Wang Teng, the words got stuck in his throat when he saw Cao Jiaojiao’s face.
“Cao Jiaojiao from the Cao family.” Cao Jiaojiao looked at Wang Teng intently and stretched out her hand.
“Wang Teng.” Wang Teng was surprised, but he still accepted her handshake.
“My father invites you to our house tomorrow,” Cao Jiaojiao said after pulling her hand back.
“Invite me?” Wang Teng was surprised.
“Yes. You’re the inheritor of Baron Nangong. My father is Baron Nangong’s disciple. so we are a family. You came from far away and we’re thinking of inviting you for a meal. Do you mind?” Cao Jiaojiao asked casually.
“Makes sense.” Wang Teng touched his chin and smiled. “I guess it’ll be disrespectful to reject you!”
