Chapter 255 Gossip
Lan Shaozhi’s question left Su Ye dumbfounded. “What is an extraordinary relationship?” He asked, puzzled.
Lan Shaozhi looked around and confirmed that there were no suspicious people nearby. He lowered his voice and said, “It’s the kind of cooperative relationship between martial arts experts and secular enterprises.”
Su Ye was still puzzled and asked in surprise, “Why don’t I understand?”
Lan Shaozhi hurriedly explained, “Just like Chaoge Group and that Korean back then, you can’t be an expert behind Tang Clan, right?”
Su Ye suddenly understood and shook his head helplessly.
Lan Shaozhi heaved a long sigh of relief and hurriedly said, “That’s good, that’s good.”
However, this appearance made Su Ye puzzled again, and he let out a surprised cry.
Lan Shaozhi smiled awkwardly and said weakly, “Originally, I wanted to invite you to Lan Corporation. I was just worried that you were an expert under the name of Tang Clan, so it would be hard for me to make fun of you. Now that I heard that you’re not, I’m relieved, right?”
Su Ye immediately smiled, but Lan Shaozhi did not show any courtesy. He directly sat beside Su Ye and said, “Then Su Ye, can you tell me what family you are from?”
“Do you think people like us must be registered under some consortium?”
“I’m just an ordinary person. I don’t know much about the world of the capable. If my daughter hadn’t told me the day before yesterday, I wouldn’t have known you were called the capable.” Lan Shaozhi smiled weakly, “But I know that if this group wants to become a clan, it must be guarded by someone who has the ability. Therefore, I naturally feel that anyone who has the ability must belong to a large clan.”
Actually, Lan Shaozhi really did not understand the market situation. If one were to say that those clans were under the names of those capable people, one could not say that those capable people were under the names of those clans.
Su Ye also didn’t understand these prices. After glancing at Lan Shao, he said unhappily, “So you want to say that you want me to help you?”
Lan Shaozhi hurriedly nodded and said, “I just don’t know if you already have the family’s trust …”
Su Ye smiled helplessly and said, “Aren’t you going to check my background before you mention this to me?”
Lan Shaozhi was stunned for a moment and said weakly, “I’ve thought about it before, but I feel that rashly investigating the treatment of an expert like you would offend me, so …”
Su Ye helplessly smiled and said, “I guess there shouldn’t be any offense. After all, Tang Tianhua just wanted to rope me in and ask me to help him with his work, so much so that he was able to find out everything about me.”
Lan Shaozhi stared at him and said, “Did you say that Mr. Tang just wooed you?”
Su Ye was puzzled, “Is there anything strange about this?”
The corner of Lan Shaozhi’s mouth twitched. All he thought about was that if the Tang Clan, one of the top clans in the country, wanted to rope in Su Ye, he would have underestimated Su Ye’s abilities.
Thus, Lan Shaozhi couldn’t help but ask tentatively, “Then … did you agree?”
Su Ye shrugged his shoulders and whispered, “Not really.”
Lan Shaozhi’s eyes widened in disbelief, “Why is this? Could it be that the Tang Clan can’t even give you conditions that satisfy you?”
Su Ye helplessly smiled and said, “That’s not true either. It’s really because what Tang Tianhua wants me to do is a bit too ridiculous.”
Lan Shaozhi’s curiosity was immediately aroused and he asked weakly, “What kind of ridiculous method is this?”
Su Ye said unhappily, “He wants me to help him resurrect a dead person. Isn’t that outrageous?”
Lan Shaozhi was instantly shocked and asked in horror, “You … you people with abilities still have the ability to bring people back from the dead?”
“Of course not.” Su Ye curled his lips and said, “If the dead can still survive, wouldn’t the world be in chaos?”
Lan Shaozhi smiled awkwardly and hurriedly wiped the sweat off his forehead. He thought that the world of the capable was so miraculous that it could bring people back from the dead. Hearing Su Ye’s words, Lan Shaozhi secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
However, after thinking for a moment, he couldn’t help but ask, “Since you are unable to bring someone back from the dead, then why would Mr. Tang make such a request?”
Su Ye curled his lips and said, “How do I know? Why don’t you ask Tang Tianhua yourself?”
Lan Shaozhi immediately waved his hand and smiled, “No, no. I think it’s better for me not to participate in such a thing casually.”
Perhaps it was because of Lan Xing, Su Ye did not have much of a feeling in front of Lan Shaozhi, so he was naturally willing to talk nonsense with him when he was bored.
Su Ye grinned and said, “Speaking of which, you don’t even know about the world of the capable, and you’re trying to rope me in?”
Lan Shaozhi smiled awkwardly and hurriedly said, “Aren’t so many groups inferior to the clans before they can slowly come into contact with the world of the capable? Now that Chaoge Group has been delisted from S City, our Lan Corporation Group is the most likely to become a clan. Naturally, we should have made preparations earlier.”
Su Ye couldn’t help but ask curiously, “After becoming a clan, what can you do? Why do you all seem to want to rely on your own clan?”
Lan Shaozhi hurriedly said, “Of course, the benefits are self-evident. For example, the amount of money we earn now is enough for us to spend forever. But in this lifetime, could it be that we are only pursuing endless amounts of money?”
Su Ye was stunned. He raised his eyebrows and said, “Oh? Then tell me, if you don’t pursue these things, what are you pursuing?”
Lan Shaozhi didn’t think about it and immediately said, “Of course, it’s a higher level of satisfaction. For example, if a person only knows how to earn money but doesn’t know how to spend it, then no matter how much money he earns, isn’t it just a pile of waste paper?” Once one became a clan, they would have the qualifications to come into contact with a capable person. And what did a capable person represent? Isn’t it just extraordinary strength and longevity? “Even though strength is irrelevant in this peaceful era, how many people have dreamed of increasing their lifespan?”
Although Warlocks were the only ones with extraordinary lifespans amongst the three abilities, even so, as long as a warlock or martial artist stepped into the higher realms, they would still be able to increase their lifespans. Even though they weren’t comparable to Warlocks, they weren’t able to increase their lifespans by as much.
For example, a Houtian realm martial artist might only have a hundred years of lifespan if he survived, but compared to ordinary people, that was already a lot.
Even though there were plenty of ordinary people who lived for nothing, as long as a Houtian realm martial artist didn’t die, they would definitely be able to live for a hundred years.
As for ordinary people, who could guarantee that they would be able to live for a hundred years?
