Chapter 370 Eating Freely
The area in front of the array plate was instantly filled with a joyful atmosphere.
"I knew it! How could a mere junior possibly break my Tang family's magic array!"
"Absolutely right, just as expected, this kid still fell at the most difficult hurdle."
"The Grand Elder's array-setting skills are far beyond what ordinary people can achieve, turning the rotten into the miraculous, which is amazing."
The Tang family members couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then, when no one was looking, they each wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads.
Tang Xuenian and the First Elder coughed twice and said, "It seems that Yi'er's friend is a wise man who knows how to adapt to the times. In that case, Yi'er, you should go and greet him."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yi immediately ran out excitedly.
At the same time, the protective mountain formations were withdrawn one by one, and the scenery in front of Ye Kang suddenly changed, revealing a magnificent and unique mountain forest.
The carp god watched this change with curiosity and felt that he had learned something new.
"Let's go."
Ye Kang led the Carp God into the forest. It turned out that the protective array was only the outer perimeter of the Tang family. Further in was the real Tang family residence, which was huge, with pavilions and towers built against the mountains and by the water. People were cultivating and fighting everywhere.
A moment later, a familiar figure swept through the air.
"Brother Wang! You've finally arrived! Please come in!"
Tang Yi was overjoyed and happy about his friend's arrival.
After all, Ye Kang was his friend, and Tang Yi was proud that he had displayed such strong array formation skills upon arrival.
Ye Kang smiled and cupped his hands, saying, "I'm sorry to bother you, Brother Tang. I've come here because, as you mentioned last time, the outside world is too dangerous. I've come to the Tang family specifically to find a safe place to stay."
"It's good that Brother Wang has come to his senses. Don't worry, Liu Mingzhu has already come before. The Liu family and the Tang family have made a promise that no one is allowed to mention the previous matter again. Just pretend it never happened," Tang Yi said quietly.
Ye Kang was immediately intrigued: "That woman doesn't seem like the kind of person who's easy to talk to?"
Tang Yi smiled mysteriously and said, "I think she was very unwilling, but it doesn't matter. Her father has already made the decision for her. After all, it concerns the death of a disciple of the Crimson Sword Sect, and neither of our families wants to be involved."
Ye Kang nodded. As a vassal of a top power, self-preservation was the most important thing.
Tang Yi continued, "Come with me to see the patriarch; he really wants to see you."
"Of course, it's my pleasure."
Ye Kang and Li Shen followed Tang Yi and soon met Tang Xuenian.
The elegant middle-aged man immediately showed a surprised expression when he saw Ye Kang, and when he looked at the Carp God, he was stunned on the spot.
This young man is so strange.
"My name is Wang Yintai, and this is my good friend, Li Shen. Greetings, Senior Tang."
Ye Kang respectfully cupped his hands in greeting.
Tang Xuenian stroked her chin and looked at Tang Yi: "Yi'er, didn't you say he only opened four leaves?"
"Yes, the last time I saw him... wait!"
Tang Yi suddenly realized: "That's right! Last time you were only a four-leaf clover! It's only been a few days! How did you become a six-leaf clover!"
He couldn't believe that Ye Kang's cultivation level had actually caught up with his own.
Jumping two levels in just a few days is truly terrifying.
Ye Kang said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Thanks to Brother Tang, I had some fortuitous encounters in that underwater cave, which allowed me to cultivate faster."
Tang Yi said he didn't understand.
Tang Xuenian then looked at the Carp God: "This one doesn't seem to be human, does it?"
Ye Kang nodded: "The Carp God is a kind demon who has never harmed anyone. Please rest assured, Patriarch."
Tang Xuenian nodded and didn't ask any further questions.
Tyrant Whale Island is a place where humans and demons live together, so it's not surprising that many of the big shots have one or two demon pets with them.
He took out a token and said, "This is the Tang family's guest elder token. Since you want to settle in the Tang family, you must abide by the Tang family's rules from now on. Your cultivation is average, but your array formation cultivation is very high, so you will be treated as a high-level guest elder, with 20,000 spirit crystals per month. Are you satisfied?"
Guest retainers naturally need to receive a monthly salary, and the Tang family is wealthy and powerful, so a monthly salary of 20,000 is just a piece of cake.
Ye Kang was naturally filled with gratitude: "Thank you very much, Patriarch. Wang Yintai will dedicate himself to the Tang family from now on!"
"There's no need to be so serious. In short, you should work hard in your cultivation. The Tang family will provide the resources that are due. In return, your array formation skills should also serve the Tang family."
"It is obligatory."
"Alright, starting tomorrow, you will go to the Grand Elder's Array Hall and be responsible for teaching array knowledge."
Ye Kang readily agreed. The other party didn't even bother to find out anything about him, clearly not thinking he could cause any trouble.
In short, being able to settle down on Whale Island is the first step to success.
Next, all we need to do is find an opportunity to gather information about the demon's lair.
No rush, let's take it one step at a time.
Ye Kang and the Carp God bid farewell, and Tang Yi followed them out, saying, "Brother Wang, the Tang family has many cave dwellings. I'll find you the one with the best scenery."
"No rush." Ye Kang waved his hand, somewhat embarrassed, and asked, "Excuse me, is there a cafeteria?"
Tang Yi was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"No problem, no problem. Although there's no canteen, the Tang family has plenty of food. My uncle runs a barbecue stall at home. Let's go have a big meal, it's on me!"
After saying that, Tang Yi led the two into a barbecue restaurant.
The Tang family has nearly 10,000 members, almost the size of a small town, so naturally there are many shops.
After Tang Yi explained his purpose, the owner immediately patted his chest and said, "Eat as much as you like! My barbecue is definitely the most authentic in the surrounding area!"
"Then let's eat as much as we want."
Ye Kang nodded to the Carp God, whose mouth was already watering.
After several rounds of drinks, Tang Yi looked at the Carp God with trembling eyes.
"Little sister, are you full now?"
Carp God looked up blankly and stuffed half a suckling pig into his mouth.
Tang Yi's heart clenched. He looked around and saw barbecue skewers piled up all over the ground and plates stacked like a small mountain, indicating that countless people had eaten.
Anyway, the boss and his wife never stopped, and some people even brought in fresh ingredients.
The boss put his arm around Tang Yi's shoulder and laughed loudly, "You're the one who knows how to care for your uncle. I was almost broke these past few days, but with you here, I not only broke even, I even made a profit! What a good nephew!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Yi trembled all over and revealed a smile that was more like a grimace.
He now deeply regrets it; why did he have to treat everyone?
But since he's a good friend, it wouldn't be right not to treat him...
But it didn't say he could eat that much!
Seeing the carp god's still unsatisfied expression, Tang Yi sighed, "Uncle, please continue serving the dishes."
"okay!"
As the barbecue platters were served, Tang Yi's expression changed from pale to green.
This isn't meat, it's my own spirit crystals!
"Brother Tang, what's wrong? Is there something you're having trouble telling me?"
Ye Kang suddenly asked.
Tang Yi laughed and said, "How could that be? I just think that my little friend, the Carp God, is becoming more and more adorable."
"Oh, I thought you didn't want to pay for the meal."
"Absurd! I'm not that kind of person! But next time we eat, Brother Wang, you should pay for the Carp God's share yourself..."
