I Am Born With A Sliver Spoon

Just when the Qin Family were kneeling before Chen Hao, a young man was standing in front of a middle-aged man in a study room; they had come to the Li family’s residence to join the ceremony.

“Shaozong, how are you getting along with the Wan Family’s daughter?” asked the middle-aged man.

“Father, everything is under my control. Wan Xue is head over heels for me. It won’t be a problem for me to make her mine!” answered Li Shaozong, smiling faintly.

“Haha, that’s good to hear. I trust that you’ll handle everything very well. You must know that though the Wan Family itself is not that powerful, the protector they have behind them is terrifying. Before the Li Family can truly succeed, we must forge a good relationship with the Wan Family! Also, you must not slack on your cultivation. The Underground Ceremony is starting in two days’ time. The Li Family must be the winner this year, no matter what!” urged Li Shaozong’s father.

“Understood! But father…” Li Shaozong mumbled under his breath.

“What is it?” asked Mr. Li.

“I know this ceremony is held once every few years, but a rare treasure would always emerge every time in a ceremony like this. So, were there any treasures that were discovered in this ceremony?” asked Li Shaozong curiously.

“I am still probing into this. Nonetheless, the treasure this time has a significant meaning for expert cultivators like us. Thus, it has attracted the attention of many of them. Although these people have never revealed their faces, you must not attract too much attention to yourself. It’s better if we take some precautions!” advised Mr. Li worriedly.

“Understood, father. I believe many hidden expert cultivators have witnessed my intentional defeat against the demon bull at the Salvaged Dragon Villa. I reckon many have turned their attention away from me!”

Li Shaozong shook his head, smiling wryly.

“Very well, then you’ll be able to get the necessary preparations done in peace. When we get our hands on the Wan Family’s assets, the success of the expansion of the Li Family will solely depend on this!” Mr. Li let out a chuckle, feeling relieved.

After that, Li Shaozong excused himself.

At this moment, Mr. Li turned his gaze to one of the corners in the study room.

Upon closer inspection, he realized that there was a fuzzy silhouette that seemed to be flickering in and out of sight.

That very night, the Wan Family’s residence was well-lighted.

Wan Yaozong was knocking on his daughter’s room door.

“Xue, are you asleep?” asked Wan Yaozong softly.

A moment later, the bedroom door swung open.
