Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Chapter 1128: Chapter 704: Aspiring to Reach the Pinnacle_2

Just when a group of second-generation heirs were utterly disappointed, the mysterious young man beside them suddenly shook his head and said:

“Are we not competing anymore? Although these young people are of mediocre strength, they are still the most hopeful group in all of Hua Country. Since the competition has ceased, there’s no reason for this old man to stay here!”

Languid with the strength of a Half-step Celestial God, Tianya stretched and yawned, but just as he was about to turn around and leave, Chu Mo, with a slight frown, suddenly spoke up:

“Any of you, no matter who it is, if you can win the favor of Senior Tianya, then I will grant you any wish you desire, whatever it may be, I will help you fulfill it!”

As Chu Mo’s words fell, the group of second-generation heirs in front of him immediately looked up, and their gazes all turned towards the man beside Chu Mo.

In the meantime, Tianya, originally turning to leave and whose figure had already blurred, became solid again under the gazes of dozens of eyes, evidently, the departing Tianya had changed his mind.

This being with the strength of a Half-step Celestial God, one of the strongest in the world, glanced at Chu Mo with sage-like eyes, then shifted his gaze to the group of young people behind him. Eventually, Tianya, who had halted, looked vaguely at Wu Youyou and slowly said:

“In this world, the chance for Grandmaster Zhi of Shaolin to make a breakthrough is nearly nonexistent. As for those two youngsters who have just broken through the Heavenly Barrier, their talents are far too inferior, there’s almost no hope for them to advance again, and those mid-rank Great Grandmasters are not diligent enough, you simply cannot count on them.

Looking across the entire world, perhaps the only one who has hope to stand at the same height as an old man like me, would be that girl practicing the Nine Revolutions Divine Technique, but she’s still too immature. She may need at least two hundred years to grow, and it’s uncertain whether this old man will still be around by then.

Although this old man stands at the summit and has seen the beauty of ‘looking down at the smaller mountains from the highest peak,’ he no longer has any close friends to discuss the Dao with. In the future, he must savor a hundred years of solitude alone… Sigh… Nevertheless, today this old man will make an exception! To appreciate the world’s prosperity once more.”

After Tianya spoke, he suddenly crossed his hands behind his back and turned his gaze towards the group of young people opposite him, speaking in an even tone:

“So you wish to curry favor with this old man, then come try your luck. If anyone pleases me, what harm is there in granting you a prospect of a future glowing with success?”

While the group of young people on the opposite side was still stunned, Chu Mo’s gaze slowly shifted to Wu Youyou beside him – the youngest girl who was garnering much attention due to her practicing the Nine Revolutions Divine Technique. The young girl shuddered all over, and after looking deeply at Chu Mo, she trotted over to Tianya, her large eyes wide open as she said:

“You must keep your word. If I can make you happy, Sir, will you help me increase my strength by one level?”

Wu Youyou had just leaped two levels in one go, rising from a mid-rank A level to the brink of being a Grandmaster. Logically, she should be fully dedicated to cultivation now, stabilizing the Innate True Qi within her body, laying a solid foundation, and then slowly aiming for the peak of the Grandmaster realm.

However, the little girl clearly lacks the patience for slow cultivation. In her view, the current opportunity is once in a blue moon. If she could persuade the Half-step Celestial God in front of her to help her enhance her strength again, Wu Youyou could potentially save years or even a decade of cultivation time and reach the pinnacle of Great Grandmaster.

Tianya clearly had special attention for Wu Youyou, it’s uncertain whether he was touched by Wu Youyou’s innocent brilliance, or if the Nine Revolutions Divine Technique she practiced caught his eye. Nevertheless, faced with Wu Youyou standing before him, Tianya did not show any signs of distaste. On the contrary, he rarely revealed a hint of a smile and nodded slightly in agreement.

At this time, Wei Xinran was equally unwilling to show weakness. This young lady of the Wei family was also fearless, and upon seeing the promise received by Wu Youyou, the envious Wei Xinran also hopped and skipped over to Tianya’s side. Both girls, fearless by nature, each grabbed one of Tianya’s arms and started pulling him towards the courtyard’s exit.

Naturally, the group of second-generation heirs, who were a bit slow to catch on, wouldn’t miss such a golden opportunity and surrounded them en masse.

Though Tianya seemed to be only twenty-six or twenty-seven, roughly the same age as Chu Mo, in fact, he was of the same generation as Abbot Zhi of Shaolin and had long passed a century in age.

Previously, Tianya never interacted with outsiders. Solitary by nature, he always went about alone, and even those who have seen him were few and far between. Now, being surrounded like the moon by a myriad of stars was indeed a novelty for him. So, despite the noise, Tianya didn’t refuse.

As Xuanyuan Fanghua, the young mistress of the Xuanyuan family, also let go of her reserve and hurriedly followed, more than a dozen heirs from the four great families trailed behind Tianya.

Chu Mo, mindful of the Heavenly Spirit Pill in Tianya’s possession, didn’t leave but also followed along.

Beside him, the heads of the four great families exchanged glances. They were about to follow when Chu Mo suddenly waved his hand and instructed:
