CH 68

- I've returned.

Ye Ling felt that Yang Tian's attitude was a bit strange but she didn't pay too much attention to it:

- You should hurry up and eat, the food is all cold now. That won't do, let me reheat them.

- There's no need, just leave it as it is.

Yang Tian sat down and began to devour all the food on the table. Although all of it was cold, he still felt that they were very good. Ye Ling only ate a little and most of the time she sat watching him eat.

After a while, Yang Tian pat his belly:

- That was good. I didn't know your cooking was this good. Whoever marries you will be a blessed man.

Ye Ling smiled:

- That's a give, don't you know who I am by now.

Seeing her lovely face, Yang Tian felt very good. The two cleaned up and then brought out their computers. The event was starting so they couldn't miss that.

As they were playing, Ye Ling asked Yang Tian:

- Yang Tian, are you going to participate in the Pantheon event?

- Of course, how could I miss such a good event.

- You should know that our server cluster hasn't been opened for long. Although you are the strongest in this server, that barely puts you in the top 100 worldwide. At most you'll get 3rd rank Godhood.

Yang Tian's eyes went wide, what 3rd rank God? Such a trashy Godhood even if someone gave it to him he wouldn't even care.

- Didn't they just update the 4th rank Divine Sage? If I can reach Divine Sage with a top notch set, it's not impossible to get a high rank Godhood.

Ye Ling looked at Yang Tian as if she was looking at monster.

- I've only reached the 2nd rank class Archery Saint yet you want to reach 4th rank? You must know that to reach 4th rank, you must do a lot of hard quests. Even in our server, you're the only that had reached 3rd rank, there's no one else to party to help you with the quest.

Yang Tian shook his head as he didn't agree with her:

- Don't they sell buffs inside the city when we do mission?

- You're crazy, each one of those buffs cost a lot of money and they only last as long as one mission. From 3rd rank to 4th rank you must go through at least 100 quests, you know how much money that is?

Although Ye Ling was from a wealthy family, she was very frugal. She only put a small amount of cash in-game so she only reached 2nd rank. Although she knew that Yang Tian had put a lot of money in the game, she didn't think it would reach such staggering amount.

Yang Tian muttered his calculations:

- With my strength and a 100% power boost in 100 missions, let's also count 10% failure rate that'll be 110 times. If my calculation is correct, it'll be 1 million in domestic currency which is about 10 thousand USD.

The buffs gave a percentage increase but ones that give battle strength increase were even more expensive. Ye Ling heard that and her eyes went wide, she stuttered:

- You... You don't actually plan to do it, do you?

- Why not? The thing that I don't lack in my life is money. For me it's just a mean to an end, it's not important.

Ye Ling was silent, she knew that Cultivators were all filthy rich but she was sure that none of them would poured it all in a game like Yang Tian.

Yang Tian was different, he was the strongest existence within heaven and earth - a True Immortal. Be it the real world or the virtual world, he must be the best. This was the arrogance of the strong.

Seeing that Ye Ling didn't continue to oppose him, Yang Tian logged into the game and through a money transference site, he put more cash into his account. The two played games until morning and Ye Ling was at her limit. She just lied on the bed and slept. She wasn't afraid that Yang Tian would anything to her since she trusted him very much.

For Yang Tian, whether he slept or not wasn't important. He played games until 9am and after finishing more than 50 quests, he turned off his game.

Yang Tian discovered that Ye Wen Tian had arrived and he was sure that the man wouldn't want to see Yang Tian inside Ye Ling's bedroom. He quickly left her room.

Ye Wen Tian headed inside and upon seeing Yang Tian sitting on the couch watching the news, approached and greeted him:

- My Lord Overseer, I'm here to deliver your id to you.

As he said that, he produced an id card with intricate carvings and the word Overseer for Yang Tian. Yang Tian took the card and looked at Ye Wen Tian:

- Must there be such formalities between us?

Ye Wen Tian laughed and sat down:

- Yang Tian, your identity is making me more and more curious. How could you have obtained this position from the President I wonder? You must the this position was created specifically for you with powers rivaling the President himself. This news is now being spread throughout the ranks of the Dark Society and soon everyone will know.

Yang Tian didn't answer him and examined the id card:

- Millennium Mystical Iron, there are presence of the President the two Vice President stored inside. Seems very precious.

Ye Wen Tian was incensed. How priceless was Millennium Mystical Iron, their Dharmic treasures only needed to add some of it and it would enhance it's sturdiness by leaps and bound. Yang Tian's id card was made from a block like that, and it was completely pure, the word precious wouldn't even do it justice.

Stowing away his card, Yang Tian looked at Ye Wen Tian:

- Everything is done, it's time for us to head back.

Ye Wen Tian looked upstairs:

- You're not going to say goodbye to Ling-er?

Yang Tian shook his head:

- If I seeing that I wouldn't be able to leave. Besides, wouldn't she be transferring to Qing Hua University in a couple of days? It wouldn't too late to see her again there. That's right, there was something that's been bothering me. Hasn't the school year started for a while now? Why did Ling-er tell me that she just took her entrance examination a short while ago.

- It's nothing too major, Ling-er had never gone to school before and was home schooled all this time. Of course her schedule would be different from the outside. She's grown up now so I didn't want to keep her at home forever so I agreed for her to attend Qing Hua University.

Yang Tian frowned:

- You've harmed her. You think that by keeping her at home, she'll be happy?

Hearing what Yang Tian said, Ye Wen Tian eyes watered:

- I just wanted her to be safe.

Yang Tian sighed, he could somewhat understand a parents' feeling on this world. The incident before must have steeled Ye Wen Tian's resolve to not let her get into any harm.

- So when are you planning on enrolling her?

- I've finished all the paperwork. I'm just waiting for this round of treatment to end before I let her go. It should take at most a month. I hope you'll protect Ling-er in my stead.

- As long as I breath, she'll definitely come to no harm.

The two understood each other and didn't say anything else. They went to the airport to leave. As they boarded the jet, Yang Tian suddenly remembered:

- That's right, where's the female assassin from before? I want to bring her back to my place.

Ye Wen Tian nodded and ordered someone to bring her over. With Yang Tian's current position, every order would be executed without questions.

After a while, the assassin was brought to them, her face was very pale. Yang Tian looked solemnly at Ye Wen Tian's subordinate:

- What's the meaning of this?
