Chapter 87: Chapter 87: So Many Good Things!
Even Ye Feng was a bit unsettled, let alone the people from the Xu Family behind him.
Seeing so many good things, the people from the Xu Family were quite startled.
"Wow! So many gold bars, how much must these be worth?"
"What’s that? Look at those antiques and paintings. I bet those alone are worth millions; anything from the Hu Family Treasure Vault could be worth a fortune."
"I think the herbs are the most valuable. Didn’t you see how Uncle’s eyes didn’t even blink while staring at those herbs?"
...
Amid the Xu Family’s chatter, Ye Feng directly ignored the treasures and walked towards the herbs and cultivation resources.
Indeed, in the Hu Family’s treasure vault, there were many good, aged herbs.
There were ten strains of wild ginseng over three hundred years old.
There were also more than ten strains of reishi over three hundred years old.
Combined with other herbs over three hundred years old, there were more than a hundred strains.
You could say, although there were some under three hundred years, they weren’t even worth mentioning.
The most extravagant was a thousand-year-old polygonum multiflorum.
A thousand-year-old polygonum multiflorum, it’s not even comparable to the few hundred-year-old ones.
Herbs over a thousand years old, though not as effective as spirit grass, are almost as effective and are called quasi-spirit grass without exaggeration.
All these treasures, originally collected by the Hu Family to cultivate and recruit talents, ended up being all for Ye Feng’s benefit.
Here, Ye Feng had to give credit to the Hu Family.
No, he had to give credit to Xu Tian. Without his persuasion, the Hu Family might have sent some worthless stuff to fool him.
Besides these, Ye Feng also found a lot of those stones from before, about a hundred of them.
Thus, Ye Feng picked up one, frowned, and asked, "What is this?"
"Grandmaster doesn’t recognize this?" Xu Tian was a bit surprised by Ye Feng’s words, but he still answered truthfully, "This is called a Celestial Essence Stone, formed by absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, and it can provide True Qi, making cultivation twice as effective."
’It’s indeed not a spirit stone, so this thing is called a Celestial Essence Stone?’ Hearing Xu Tian’s words, Ye Feng finally understood the name of this stone.
It seems that in this world, cultivators rely on these Celestial Essence Stones and aged herbs for cultivation.
The cultivation resources sent by the Hu Family were just this much, which made Ye Feng very pleased.
Worthy of being among the top three in the Central Region, the Hu Family sure was generous.
After checking out the cultivation resources, Ye Feng took a look at the antiques and paintings.
Indeed, what the Hu Family sent was not cheap stuff; even the cheapest was worth millions.
However, even if they were worth a lot, Ye Feng didn’t find much use for them, except for exchanging them for money, so he didn’t pay much attention.
Of course, there were exceptions.
The most surprising to Ye Feng was a national-level treasure.
This was a treasure pearl, but it was a Warring States period treasure, on par with the He Shi Bi, the Suihou Pearl.
However, this pearl wasn’t displayed openly and was hidden inside another treasure.
This treasure was just an ancient bronze artifact, worth at most in the millions.
Ye Feng was puzzled, wondering how such a level of treasure could emit dazzling golden light.
Upon closer inspection, he found that it was the light emanating from the Suihou Pearl inside.
Absorbing this golden light, Ye Feng felt his cultivation base would rise another level.
Hence, Ye Feng held the bronze artifact in his hand.
Only two other items emitted golden light, though not intensively, and Ye Feng casually absorbed them without taking them out.
After Ye Feng’s appraisal, these antiques and paintings were estimated to be worth around 1.5 billion, and he figured the Hu Family had exerted great effort to collect them, all for Ye Feng.
As for those gold bars, they seemed plenty, but their total value was just over a hundred million.
Originally, Ye Feng didn’t care for them, but thinking Liu Xue would definitely need gold, he decided to give them to her.
Isn’t it so? Liu Xue runs a jewelry shop and definitely needs a lot of gold, doesn’t she?
Thinking this way, Ye Feng felt much better.
"Are you satisfied with these, Grandmaster?" After Ye Feng finished looking, Xu Tian quickly asked.
"Yes! Not bad." Ye Feng nodded.
"What about the Hu Family’s issue?" Seeing Ye Feng was no longer angry, Xu Tian was overjoyed.
"Let’s just call it even, but as for magical artifacts, the Hu Family should not touch them again." Ye Feng nodded, ready to let the Hu Family off.
"Absolutely." Hearing Ye Feng’s words, Xu Tian was ecstatic and nodded with a smile.
After gaining Ye Feng’s forgiveness, Xu Tian turned to look at those people, signaling, "You all head back first and give this good news to the Hu Family."
"Yes, Lord." They nodded respectfully, turned around, and left.
After those people left, Xu Tian turned and knelt before Ye Feng, pleading, "Actually, I came here this time to ask for one thing, hoping the Grandmaster will grant it."
It was precisely for this reason that Xu Tian had the Hu Family take out their treasure vault to compensate Ye Feng.
Because he wanted to use this opportunity to curry favor with Ye Feng and earn his goodwill.
"What is it?" Seeing this scene, Ye Feng frowned.
After Ye Feng responded, Xu Tian said, "I’ve been cultivating my whole life without much achievement, and I might never reach Grandmaster in this life."
"Therefore, I wish to ask the Grandmaster to take me as a disciple, teach me skills, and guide me to become a Grandmaster."
"I am willing to stay by the Grandmaster’s side, serving like a workhorse for life."
Xu Tian was very sincere and genuinely wished to apprentice and learn.
Hearing Xu Tian’s words, Ye Feng fell silent.
Originally, Ye Feng didn’t plan to take on a disciple.
But Xu Tian indirectly helped him acquire so many good things.
Besides, Xu Tian had decent potential; otherwise, he wouldn’t have self-taught himself close to Grandmaster level in his early fifties.
So, Ye Feng was tempted.
Moreover, having a disciple to help with things seemed much more convenient.
"For this, are you willing to leave the Hu Family?" Ye Feng asked seriously.
"Of course! I hope the Grandmaster will grant my request." Xu Tian responded without hesitation.
"Alright! I will accept you as my disciple. From now on, you will look after the Xu Family and solve their problems, how about that?" Hearing Xu Tian’s response, Ye Feng nodded and asked.
"Thank you, Master." Hearing Ye Feng’s agreement, Xu Tian was overjoyed, kowtowing and bowing.
"Haha! This is a good thing, congratulations, young brother." Seeing this, Xu Tong nodded in satisfaction.
Xu Tong had heard of Xu Tian’s reputation, and with Xu Tian’s protection of the Xu Family, how could they not soar to new heights?
In the future, the Xu Family seemed sure to take the Hu Family’s place, maybe even rise to become the leader of the Central Region?
This made Xu Tong very satisfied...
