Wang shiqing couldn't help but say,"If we don't shed all pretenses of cordiality, are we going to watch helplessly as they swallow us?"
You CI 'er laughed."The Wang family isn't as united as you think. Wang Tianwen is our enemy, so the enemy of our enemy is our friend, right?"
"You mean Wang Tianfeng?" Lin Yi's eyes flashed.
"That's right. No matter what their relationship is on the surface, the two popular candidates for the family head position are like fire and water. If I'm not wrong, Wang Tianwen's real intention in creating such a big commotion is not on us, but to create momentum for the family head election!"
You CI 'er hit the nail on the head.
Lin Yi agreed,"that's right. If he really wanted to take over the talisman society, he wouldn't have made such a big deal out of it. It's better to cook a frog in warm water and do everything in the dark. When the news gets out, it'll be a done deal. We'll have no choice then, and we won't alert the enemy like we are now."
"Yes, whether he can swallow the talisman making society or not is not that important to him. Right now, his top priority is the election for the family head. Swallowing the talisman making society is just a signboard he put out to attract the middlemen in the family."
You CI 'er paused for a moment."Once this voting session is successful, Wang Tianwen's reputation in the Wang family will definitely rise to another level. By then, even the elders will stand on his side."
"But I heard that the elders don't allow private contact with the candidate to ensure fairness," Tang Yin said, confused. "And they don't allow any material exchange of benefits?"
"Just because the elders don't come into contact with it doesn't mean that their descendants won 't. Even if they don't think for themselves, they should at least think for their descendants. This is human nature."
"So we're not the most anxious right now, it's the other candidate, Wang Tianfeng!" Lin Yi said, trying to hide his feelings.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, someone outside came to invite him to a meeting, and the host of the invitation was Wang Tianfeng.
After letting Wang shiqing and you CI 'er settle down, Lin Yi went to a side courtyard with Tang Yun. The courtyard was clean and elegant, but the location was a little remote.
Wang Tianfeng was the son of the previous family head. In terms of blood, he was the direct descendant of the Wang family. Even if he did not run for the position of family head, he was still an important figure in the family.
With his level, it was really a bit unusual to be arranged to stay in such a side courtyard.
Tang Yin explained,"third uncle used to have a yard in the core area of the family, but one of his uncles got into an accident. He left a couple with no one to take care of them, so he gave the yard to them and moved out. There were a lot of rumors about it back then ..."
At this moment, a gentle and clear voice sounded,""I don't need you to help me promote my dark history, Yin. If Lin shaoxia hears about it, he might really think that I have the same interests as Cao."
The person was of medium height, slightly dark skin, and simply dressed. He exuded a calming and approachable aura, and at first glance, he looked even more ordinary than an ordinary person.
If he wasn't mentally prepared, Lin Yi wouldn't have thought that this person, who couldn't be found in a crowd, was a core member of the Wang family.
"Third Master Wang is noble and unquestionable-this can't be considered a dark history, can it? it's just some gossip, I don't want to hear it."
Wang Tianfeng laughed."We're all family. Why are you calling me like an outsider? but we're not in the same generation. Please allow me to ask you. Young hero Lin, can you just call me third uncle?" Of course, I don't mind if you and Yun 'er call me third uncle. "
"Uncle!" Tang Yin blushed.
"Three ..."
Lin Yi only managed to get a word out before being forced back by Tang Yin's murderous glare. He smiled and changed his words."Third uncle, since we're on the same side, you don't have to call me Lin shaoxia anymore. You can just call me Xiao Lin."
Wang Tianfeng smiled and patted Lin Yi's shoulder,"Alright, I've heard of you for a long time. Today, I've finally seen you in person, what a great thing! Come, come, come, sit with Yun 'er for a while. The food will be ready soon, so let's have a good drink later. "
She invited the two to sit down as she put on an apron and walked into the kitchen. There was a frying sound coming from inside, followed by an alluring aroma.
"Has third uncle always been so lively?"
Lin Yi couldn't help but be curious. People at their level could already skip eating, and even if they opened a banquet, they would only go for treasures. But Wang Tianfeng's was obviously just a normal home-cooked dish without any spiritual Qi attached to it.
To be honest, it had been a long time since he had such a normal family dinner.
"Third uncle always said that life is a form of cultivation," Tang Yun smiled,"so I've always done these things myself. I was attracted by his home-cooked food at first. It's like when I was a kid."
"He's an interesting person. "
Lin Yi didn't say much when Wang Tianfeng came out with the dishes. While Tang Yun was helping with the dishes, he found a jar of wine.
This was different from tyrant's thousand-year-old wine, which could easily make people drunk. It was just like the home-cooked food in front of him. It was just an ordinary yellow wine, no different from what ordinary people drank.
"I just like this. I don't know if you'll be used to it. Try it."
Wang Tianfeng personally filled Lin Yi's glass, and Lin Yi took a sip and gave him a thumbs up. "It's been a long time since I've had such pure yellow rice wine. It reminds me of the days when I stole wine to drink when I was young. I miss it."
"It's good that you like it. I also like this taste. Other spirit wines are always lacking in flavor! They all say that I'm doing this for cultivation. Cultivation my ass, it's purely for gluttony. It's rare for you to come today, so you have to accompany me to drink to my heart's content!"
Wang Tianfeng acted like a normal elder in the house, not mentioning anything else and just asking Lin Yi to drink.
It was a good thing that at Lin Yi's level, normal rice wine wouldn't have any effect on him even if he drank it for ten thousand years. Otherwise, he would've collapsed from drinking it today.
Surprisingly, Lin Yi didn't get drunk even after a thousand glasses, but Wang Tianfeng himself seemed a little drunk.
He did not bother to hide his cultivation level. He was at the late stage of the great circle. In the Jianghai Academy, where experts were as common as clouds, he might not be considered outstanding, but he was definitely considered a high-end combat force. As for outside of the Academy, he was definitely a well-known expert.
Normally, other than tyrant's thousand-year-old wine, ordinary wine, let alone the ordinary yellow wine that ordinary people drank, even those high-grade spirit wine would definitely not be able to make a Big Shot at the late stage of the consummate level drunk.
However, Wang Tianfeng's drunkenness was not fake. He had obviously used some method to suppress his instincts as a cultivator, making him become a real ordinary person at this time, with a normal heart.
