Chapter 2524: Le Yan! Gains! (2)
Ti Jing sighed, knowing that Ti Du would never give up easily. He reluctantly said, “Let’s not rush this matter for now. We’ll think it over slowly.”
“Okay, I’ll listen to you, big brother.” Ti Du gritted his teeth.
“What are you two talking about over here? We’ve been waiting for you forever.” At that moment, a figure approached from afar.
“Big brother Le Shan!” Ti Jing and Ti Du’s eyes lit up when they saw the newcomer, and they quickly called out.
Ti Du’s face even softened from its previous stubbornness, showing a hint of respect. In front of this young man, he dared not be disrespectful in the slightest.
“Let’s go. Le Tun and Le Yan are here too. I’ll take you to meet them,” said the young man known as Le Shan in a calm tone.
“Brother Le Tun! And Le Yan!” Ti Du and Ti Jing exclaimed in shock.
Upon hearing these two names, even Ti Jing restrained the trace of arrogance on his face, hurriedly following Le Shan’s steps and quietly asking, “I remember Big Brother Le Tun is stationed on the Heavenly Lightning Mountain in the Realm s.p.a.ce. How come he has time to come back?”
“There’s been a little situation,” Le Shan’s face showed a hint of anger, hesitating for a moment before explaining.
Ti Jing immediately refrained from asking more questions upon seeing this, but he made a mental note of the incident. He would ask the elders at home about it later. Le Tun being stationed at Heavenly Lightning Mountain of the Lightning Realm was no trivial matter, and now that something had happened, the elders at home must be aware of it.
The three of them turned into a corridor and soon arrived at the entrance of a s.p.a.cious hall. Pa.s.sing through the door, they saw a bustling scene inside.
Many people were gathered around huge ore stones, some discussing animatedly while others were hammering away. They were gambling on ores.
Le Shan scanned the surroundings and spotted several familiar figures. He immediately led Ti Du and Tii Jing over.
“Le Tun! Le Yan!” When they approached, Le Shan greeted them with a smile.
The two figures turned their heads and nodded faintly upon seeing Le Shan, neither too polite nor too distant.
If w.a.n.g Teng were here, he would surely recognize one of them as none other than Le Tun, the man he had defeated.
“Let me introduce you. These two are the talented young members of the Ti family, Ti Du and Ti Jing. They are both genius Force chefs of the Ti family, with extraordinary attainments. If you want to taste any spirit dishes, you can find them,” Le Shan said nonchalantly, introducing them.
Ti Du and Ti Jing’s gazes couldn’t help but fall on the woman in front of them, and their eyes were immediately captivated.
She was dressed in alchemist robes, her figure graceful and slender, her delicate face flawless as if carved from crystal.
Her eyes were exceptionally spirited, sparkling like stars with a faint purple hue, exuding a n.o.ble and profound aura that irresistibly drew in the gazes of those around her.
“Cough!” Le Shan cleared his throat upon seeing the two men’s reactions.
Ti Du and Ti Jing snapped out of their daze, their faces revealing astonishment. However, the awe in their eyes lingered.
They had long heard of Le Yan’s extraordinary talent in alchemy and her stunning beauty. Many regarded her as one of the top five beauties among the younger generation of core families at the headquarters of the Secondary Career Alliance.
Seeing her today, they realized that the rumors were not exaggerated. Le Yan was not just one of the top five beauties. She was undoubtedly the most stunning among them.
It was breathtaking!
She seemed to have stepped out of a painting.
Especially with that unique aura of an alchemist, she appeared even more outstanding.
The fact that the Le family had kept her hidden was surprising to them. As core members of the Secondary Career Alliance headquarters, they had only now seen Le Yan’s true appearance.
“Pleasure to meet you.” Le Tun nodded slightly toward them, without a hint of arrogance.
“We have long heard of Le Tun’s reputation as the master of Heavenly Lightning Mountain. However, as secondary professional pract.i.tioners, we lack the qualifications to enter the Realm s.p.a.ce, so we have not had the chance to witness your magnificence. It’s a pity,” Ti Du immediately flattered, smiling ingratiatingly.
A flicker of irritation crossed Le Tun’s eyes. Ever since being defeated by w.a.n.g Teng and ousted from the throne of Heavenly Lightning Mountain, he had been recuperating within the family, avoiding public appearances to prevent further embarra.s.sment.
However, barely stepping out today, he encountered someone so oblivious. It was truly embarra.s.sing for him.
In theory, news of his loss at the Heavenly Lightning Mountain should have spread already. Core families of the Secondary Career Alliance like the Ti family couldn’t possibly be unaware. Yet here was someone from the Ti family bringing it up to his face. Was it a mockery?
Beside him, Le Yan glanced at Le Tun and couldn’t help but chuckle teasingly.
Her laugh, like a blossoming flower, seemed to brighten the entire hall.
“Miss Le Yan truly lives up to her reputation as one of the top five beauties among the younger generation of core families at the headquarters of the Secondary Career Alliance. It’s indeed regrettable not to have seen her beauty before.” Ti Jing’s eyes inadvertently revealed a hint of admiration as he spoke.
“Such flattery.” Le Yan frowned slightly at the gaze he gave her, then smiled lightly.
Le Shan felt a pang of embarra.s.sment. These two were making a fool out of him.
His talents were not on par with Le Tun and Le Yan, nor did he hold the same status within the Le family. Nevertheless, he had connections with many talented individuals from the core families of the Secondary Career Alliance…
