C436 Something Doesn't Seem Right
The Tang family had taken root in the Southern Wasteland for many years. Naturally, there was no need to explain their refining skills.
However, just as the old saying went, "Eat by the mountain, eat by the water, eat by the water." Naturally, the Tang family relied on their refining skills to survive.
The Tang family provided a certain amount of resources to the various auctions in the Big City in the Southern Wasteland. Among them, the auction in Divine Dao City was one of them.
What Tang Tianhao was worried about was that Divine Dao City and Venomous Insect City were neighboring cities. Naturally, this auction was very close to each other, and it was likely that conflicts would arise very easily. Naturally, the Tang family could only provide resources to one of the auctions. The Tang family and the Divine Dao City had been cooperating for many years, so of course, they didn't want to give up so easily. However, this ten-thousand-year-old Xuan Iron wasn't something that the Divine Dao Alliance could afford.
This made Tang Tianhao feel very troubled.
The Venomous Insect Clan was once a large family. Although they had almost been wiped out, with the power that Ling Xiao had shown, they should not be as powerful as the many powers in Southern Domain.
However, although the Divine Dao Alliance had only developed for nearly a thousand years, its foundation and strength were beyond doubt. Even though the Tang family had a longer history than them, they knew that they couldn't be compared with the current Divine Dao Alliance.
Naturally, they couldn't let go of the ten-thousand-year-old Xuan Iron. However, they had to figure out how to deal with this matter.
"Sect Master of Tang family, this matter is too sudden. I still have to stay in the city for three days. I will leave if it doesn't work!" Ling Xiao knew that Tang Tianhao would not agree immediately, so he delayed the time for a few days to let him think about it.
However, just as Ling Xiao was about to leave, He turned to the people of Tang family and said, "By the way, I think I have another piece of ten thousand years old dark silver. I couldn't even cut it with my Profound Artifact. It should be a pretty good material for refining. If Old Master Tang can help me refine a spiritual weapon, I wonder if I can add some of this material in?
"Ten thousand years old dark silver?" All the people of the Tang family exclaimed. Their faces were full of shock.
"Mr. Ling, where is your ten thousand year old dark silver? Can you show it to me?" Tang Gangling was the first one who could not wait to grab Ling Xiao's hand and said excitedly.
Ling Xiao cleverly pulled away Tang Gangling's hand. "Brother Tang, I am not interested in men. I think you found the wrong person.
Tang Gangling knew he was being rude. He scratched the back of his head and said with a dry smile, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ling. I was excited. I'm not interested in men either.
At this time, Tang Tianhao said, "Mr. Ling, you really have ten thousand years of silver.
"Uh... I think there is a little bit." Ling Xiao hesitated for a moment and said.
"A little bit? Is it that big?" Tang Tianhao opened his palm and gestured.
His gesture was about the size of a human head.
"Uh... a little bigger than that." Ling Xiao hesitated for a moment and said.
Tang Tianhao looked happy. He gestured again. "Is it that big again?
He crossed his arms. He was trying to see if the two heads were as big as when they were put together.
Ling Xiao hesitated for a moment and said, "It seems to be a little bigger than this.
This time, not only Tang Tianhao was happy, even the people of Tang family who were standing at the side had a burning look on their faces.
"Can Mr. Ling take it out and take a look?" Tang Gangling licked his lips and asked.
"This... is not good, is it?" Ling Xiao looked troubled.
"We are just taking a look." Tang Tianhao rubbed his hands.
"Yes, yes, we are just looking," the men from the Tang family said.
"I paid a great price to get this from the river," Ling Xiao said reluctantly. It was as if the ten thousand years old silver was his life.
The people of Tang family were anxious. The ten-thousand-year-old dark silver was a rare material for forging weapons, just like the ten-thousand-year-old dark steel.
Any ordinary spiritual artifact could be forged into a low grade spiritual artifact. If two materials were added at the same time, the grade of the spiritual artifact would greatly increase.
To the Tang family who had been running out of top grade refining materials, this was a life or death temptation!
"Mr. Ling, as long as you can take out ten thousand years worth of deep silver, I promise you on behalf of my father that I will provide the supply to the Venomous Insect City Auction," Tang Gangling said as he patted his chest.
He had been crazy about refining weapons since he was young. That was why he had become a Tier 5 medicinal Artifact Refining Master at such a young age.
Now that there were top-grade materials appearing, he was naturally more anxious than anyone else.
Tang Tianhao knew that he was going to be hooked by Ling Xiao this time, so he could only reply with a smile, "That's right, Mr. Ling, take it out for us to see. If it really is ten thousand years old dark silver, our Tang family will definitely support the Venomous Insect City Auction.
Ling Xiao finally revealed a forced smile and said. "Alright. Seeing how enthusiastic the Tang family Master and Brother Tang are, I will show it to you all.
After saying that, Ling Xiao took out the ten-thousand-year-old dark silver that he had obtained from Loong Taojiang.
Bang!
A large piece of ten-thousand-year-old dark silver heavily smashed onto the stone slab on the ground, causing the ground to instantly sink in.
Everyone from the Tang family opened their mouths wide as they looked at the ten-thousand-year-old dark silver that was no smaller than the ten-thousand-year-old dark steel.
They were all secretly exclaiming, "Didn't they say that it was just a little bit? How could there be so much? This is too much of a scam! However, I like it!
They originally thought that according to Ling Xiao's description, the ten thousand year deep silver in his hand should only be several tens of kilograms. They did not expect that the amount he took out would be several hundred kilograms. It simply made them wild with joy.
"It's really... really ten-thousand-year-old dark silver!" Tang Gangling looked at the huge rock that was flashing with silver light and said excitedly.
It was as if he had seen a peerless beauty, and he could not help but possess her.
The other members of the Tang family also had the same expression.
With the ten-thousand-year-old profound steel and the ten-thousand-year-old deep silver, they would definitely be able to use it sparingly within a hundred years. They would definitely be able to forge more than a hundred spiritual artifacts, allowing their Tang family to reach unprecedented heights, allowing their Tang family's strength to take a huge step forward.
However, they also knew that the two rare refining materials in front of them didn't belong to the Tang family. If they wanted to obtain them, the price they would have to pay could be imagined.
If it was any other ordinary martial artist, they could have used both soft and hard techniques to seize them. But facing the son-in-law of the Venomous Insect Clan, they really didn't know what to do.
"Mr. Ling, about the question you asked just now, I think I can use the name of the Tang family to support your Venomous Insect City auction. Our Tang family will provide at least ten Tier 4 medicinal Profound Artifacts and five Tier 5 medicinal Profound Artifacts for you to auction every month. Also, each year, we will provide at least one spiritual weapon for you to auction. The premise is that you must buy ten thousand year old black iron and ten thousand year old dark silver to our Tang family. How about that? " Tang Tianhao immediately changed his mind and said.
He felt that even if he had to risk offending the Divine Dao Alliance, he had to keep these two materials in the Tang family.
Tang Tianhao thought that Ling Xiao would agree to his request.
Unexpectedly, Ling Xiao revealed a thoughtful expression and said, "I know that you are in a difficult position, but I asked you to agree to my request for these two broken stones. It's really hard for me to feel at ease. "How about this? Think about it carefully. I'm not in a hurry.
In fact, who knew better than Ling Xiao how important these two materials were to the Tang family?
Thinking back to when he was in Meteor Rock City, his foster father, Li Rong, was a Tier 3 medicinal Artifact Refining Master. Although he did not learn any refining techniques from Li Rong, he had also briefly understood the preciousness of some refining materials.
What he did now was to retreat in order to advance, to fight for a bigger bargaining chip for himself.
To be honest, although these two types of refinement materials were precious, they were indeed of little value in his hands. Unless he really threw them to the auction, otherwise, keeping them would only be a decoration.
When the people of Tang family heard Ling Xiao turn the ten thousand year black iron and the ten thousand year dark silver into broken stones, they all cursed in their hearts, "Don't worry, we are really blind. That is a top quality treasure, a layman who doesn't know how to practice. Why don't you throw that broken stone to us? We won't dislike it.
"Mr. Ling, we don't need to think about this matter. In the name of the Tang family Chief, I can promise you now." Tang Tianhao patted his chest and promised again.
"This isn't good, is it? I, Ling Xiao, never like to force others. " I think you guys should think about it. Anyway, I haven't left Giant Peak City yet, "Ling Xiao said generously.
Tang Tianhao looked anxious. Just as he was about to say something, Tang Gangling said from the side, "Mr. Ling is right. We need to think about it. How about this? Mr. Ling will stay in Tang family for the next few days, so that he can have a look at our artifact forging skills.
Tang Tianhao looked at his son and suddenly realized something. He said, "That's right. Mr. Ling, you should stay and take a look at our Tang family's artifact forging skills. It will definitely make you feel that this trip is worth it. Moreover, you need to refine a spirit weapon. We need to ask the old master to make a decision.0
His son had interrupted him well. They were too impatient. Anyone could tell that they were extremely eager for the ten-thousand-year-old darksteel and ten-thousand-year-old deep-silver.
However, this also indirectly let others know their eagerness, so they would definitely increase the chips they bought or exchanged for in this aspect.
Then, they had to think about how they should face Ling Xiao's outrageous demand.
Ling Xiao hesitated for a moment and said. Since the Tang family Master and Brother Tang are so passionate, I'll nag them.
"General, arrange for Mr. Ling and this... this lord to rest first. You must treat these two important guests well. Tomorrow, we will bring them to visit our place of refining," Tang Tianhao instructed.
"Father, don't worry. I will not wait for these two honored guests," Tang Gangling said.
The father and son of Tang family were very humble for the sake of the ten thousand year old black iron and ten thousand year old dark silver. How many people in the Southern Domain could the Tang family treat them like this? Even if it was someone from another aristocratic family, they wouldn't be so enthusiastic, right?
After Tang Gangling brought Ling Xiao and Cann Bao with him, Tang Jin immediately said to Tang Tianhao in a serious tone, "Chief, no matter what price you pay for these two materials, you must get them.
Tang Fu also agreed from the side, "That's right. Those two materials are definitely more than ten thousand years old. They might even be older. Using them to refine spirit weapons is definitely the best choice. Perhaps it can help old master reach the seventh step.
Hearing Tang Fu's words, Tang Tianhao's eyes lit up with determination.
"Elder Jin, come with me to find old master." Tang Tianhao said to Tang Jin and immediately rushed out of the private room.
