Chapter 312: Chapter 312

Xiao Jinting elegantly sat down on the seat of the Ye Family and maintained a graceful smile under the gazes of everyone.

Ye Jinlan didn’t have time to marvel at him, asking with a straight face, “Mr. Xiao, that magic disc…”

“Each costs one hundred top-grade spiritual stones. How many do you want?” asked Xiao Jinting with a smile.

“Ten,” Ye Mi answered.

Xiao Jinting took out a stack of magic discs and handed them to Ye Mi, who quickly paid a thousand top-grade spiritual stones.

Xiao Jinting thought to himself, “These guys are loaded! Although the cultivation level of Nebula Island is lower than that of Cloud Continent, the reserves of spiritual stones are higher. Before returning to Cloud Continent, I have to get more spiritual stones.”

When the head of the Hong family saw Xiao Jinting give Ye Mi a stack of magic discs, he turned green.

“Mr. Xiao, why didn’t you bring them out earlier since they are so good?” Ye Jinlan asked.

Xiao Jinting smiled and said indifferently, “Miss Ye, you didn’t ask me.”

Opportunity that presented itself was not valued. Since he arrived at the Ye house, the Family had not taken him seriously. Although Xiao Jinting was broad-minded, he was not a pushover. He would not tell them about the Thunder Flame Magic Discs when they took him lightly.

Besides, how could they value him if the Ye Family did not lose the first round?

“Mr. Xiao, you’re awesome. I didn’t expect you to defeat Elder Yuyao,” Ye Jinlan said with admiration.

After Xiao Jinting won the second round, Ye Jinlan was obviously relieved. She had evident confidence in Ye Mi, who was going to take the third round.

“Miss Ye, I’ve told you long ago that I was confident in winning. Didn’t you believe me?” asked Xiao Jinting.

Ye Jinlan smiled awkwardly and said, “I believe you.” Although Ye Jinlan didn’t look down on Xiao Jinting, she had never imagined that he could defeat Elder Yuyao.

Xiao Jinting said triumphantly, “Actually, I’m modest. I knew I would win, but I said I was confident, just to be on the safe side…”

Ye Jinlan was disappointed. She had thought that Xiao Jinting was modest like a real master, but his words had ruined his image in her heart.

The flying bear nibbled on a cake on Xiao Xiaojin’s knees and giggled at Xiao Jinting.

Xiao Xiaojin sat not too far away from Ye Jinlan, who grew suspicious with the flying bear on his knee after she saw Xiao Jinting’s scorpions. Was it just an ordinary pet?

Noticing Ye Jinlan’s curious gaze, the bear rolled with a lack of interest and continued to eat the cake.

“Father, many people are looking at you,” Xiao Xiaojin said to Xiao Jinting.

Xiao Jinting nodded, “Yeah.”

Ye Jinlan looked at Xiao Jinting and said, “Mr. Xiao, you’ve definitely made your fame today.”

Xiao Jinting smiled, “Really? Actually, I am a low-key person. I don’t care about fames. Now that so many people look at me, I feel embarrassed.”

Ye Jinlan was speechless.

The Ye and Hong family both sent Peak Golden Core cultivators for the final round. They knew each other well, and their cultivation levels were pretty much the same. With the help of the magic discs, Ye Mi defeated the cultivator of the Hong family, and the Ye family finally secured its seat in the alliance.

The head of the Hong family sneaked away after he was defeated.

Ye Mi returned to the seat of the Ye Family lightly. According to the rules of the Business Alliance, one family only accepted one challenge. If any family wanted to take a seat in the alliance, it had to go for the other families.

“Old guy, you are lucky! I didn’t expect you to secure your seat.” The ancestor of the He family sneered.

Ye Miao smiled faintly and said, “Yeah, I’m lucky.”

The ancestor of the He family turned to Xiao Jinting and said, “Mr. Xiao, you are amazing. My grandson is blind.”

“That’s nothing.” Xiao Jinting saw He Li, who sat next to his grandfather in embarrassment. He Li saw Xiao Jinting and gave him an awkward smile.

Xiao Jinting looked at He Li and felt delighted.

…

Miao Han looked at Xiao Jinting in silence. Back then, he, Xie Jinyan and Cao Tong went out to take an adventure, and paid Xiao Jinting ten top-grade spiritual stones for saving them. It was not something he was proud of, so he forgot Xiao Jinting behind.

A few years later, Xiao Xiaodong and Xiao Xiaofan advanced to Golden Core, and Miao Han started to pay attention to them.

Seeing people who used to be at the similar level with him made advancement to Golden Core, Miao Han was envious and chose not to mind them anymore.

“I didn’t expect Xiao Jinting to be so powerful,” Miao Han muttered. In the past, Xiao Jinting had saved him, and Miao Han only regarded him as a poor man who had advanced to Golden Core because of good luck. He did not expect Xiao Jinting to be so strong.

“Miao Han, do you know this man?” Miao He asked.

Miao Han nodded and said, “I’ve met him before.”

“I heard that the Xiao family has a lot of Gold Cores. Some of our people suspect that he has a secret method that can make people advance to Golden Core. He looks awesome. He even killed Elder Yuyao,” Miao He said with bright eyes.

Miao Han’s face darkened, as he thought of the young men he met at the sea. After so many years, those who used to be similar with him became Gold Cores, but he didn’t get anywhere.

“I thought the Ye family would be finished this time, but they manage to secure the seat,” Miao Feng’er muttered.

“Yeah. The Hong family had spent so much effort in this competition, but in the end, they failed,” Miao Han said sympathetically.

“Xiao Jinting surprised me. I heard that he is living on a damn hill without any fame. I thought the Ye family recruited him to make up for the number. “Miao Feng’er pursed her lips.
