The three Grandmasters had originally intended to say more, assuming Young Master Xu wished to persuade them.
However, they never anticipated Young Master Xu would utter such a statement. At this moment, all three were utterly dumbfounded, staring blankly at Young Master Xu, momentarily unable to process what they had heard.
"You... what did you just say?"
"I said Mr. Lin has a medicine that can allow those in the Grandmaster realm to directly break through to a legendary realm. However, there's a drawback: once this medicine is taken, your cultivation can never improve even slightly again," Young Master Xu replied with a smile.
"Are you sure?"
"Absolutely and positively!" Young Master Xu retorted. "Besides, do you think Mr. Lin needs to deceive us? If he truly wanted what we possess, he wouldn't have left empty-handed when he visited our Xu family that night."
"He wants what he wants, and you will obediently hand it over."
"Who among you dares to refuse?"
This statement made the three men's faces turn somewhat awkward. They still vividly remembered the psychological trauma Lin Xiaotian had inflicted upon them.
Now, their hearts skipped a beat. At their age, their vitality was gradually declining. Without any unforeseen circumstances, they would never be able to break through to a more powerful realm in this lifetime.
After all, they were not like the former family head, who was at the peak of his cultivation. They were now old and frail. Even if they wished to become stronger, they had no opportunity. If a pill could now elevate them to a more powerful realm, wouldn't their lifespan and strength also increase?
The moment this thought crossed their minds, they already had their answer.
Because regardless of the method used to enhance their strength, the cleansing of spiritual energy during their breakthrough would be sufficient to bring about earth-shattering changes in their bodies.
And these changes could extend their lives.
The older one gets, the more one fears death. This was precisely their current state. If someone offered them an opportunity, they would undoubtedly seize it without hesitation. Now that Lin Xiaotian was their master,
it seemed that even if Lin Xiaotian accepted their family's treasures, they would have to give them up.
The three exchanged glances, their minds made up. Their gazes all turned towards Young Master Xu.
"Then this matter is entrusted to you. You can do as you see fit. We will all support your decision. If anyone dares to defy your wishes, they will be opposing us three old fellows from now on."
"That's right. We three old fellows will follow your lead from now on."
"Today, we will remember your kindness and will definitely support your decisions within the family going forward."
A smile also appeared on Young Master Xu's face. "Then thank you, the three of you. Rest assured, you will be the guardian experts of our family from now on. Unless the family faces extremely serious matters, I will absolutely not ask the three of you to do anything. You will only need to enjoy the family's provisions."
The three exchanged glances, their faces also showing smiles. They had reluctantly reached an agreement.
After learning the detailed situation, without Young Master Xu needing to say anything, the three began to devise ways to find those medicines.
Young Master Xu immediately reported the situation here to Lin Xiaotian.
Lin Xiaotian looked at the message on his phone, a slight curve forming at the corner of his mouth. "I didn't expect this Xu Laoda to be somewhat clever."
"Perhaps this is a case of great wisdom appearing foolish. Keeping you around has its benefits, at least you won't betray us."
He pondered these matters, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he thought of those people from the Heavenly Net.
As long as those individuals were not exposed, his heart would not find peace.
Just as Lin Xiaotian was lost in thought, there was a knock on the door. Then, the little secretary pushed open the door, revealing her delicate and adorable little face.
"Mr. Lin, President Chu is looking for you."
"Alright, I understand." Lin Xiaotian stood up from the conference room with a smile. He had originally planned to slack off nearby; since there was nothing for them to do, he was bored.
He had been with Chu Nianxue for a while, but now he had been kicked out for causing trouble.
Lin Xiaotian pushed open the office door with a smile and saw Chu Nianxue frowning slightly. A smile involuntarily appeared on his face. "Wife, we haven't seen each other for only a short while, have you missed me again?"
"I missed you, but you told me not to disturb you, so I didn't dare to come. I feel so wronged!"
Chu Nianxue directly rolled her eyes at him, and the annoyance in her heart vanished considerably in that instant.
"President Wu just called me."
Hearing this name, Lin Xiaotian's eyes narrowed slightly. He had witnessed the greed of that old man. He said with a smile, "What is it? Does that old man want to continue cooperating with us?"
Chu Nianxue nodded. "If it were according to the original cooperation method, I might have considered agreeing after some thought, as cooperation is mutually beneficial."
"I don't even care about their previous breach of contract. We made a lot of money, and it's normal for them to be envious."
"But now they even want to increase the cost of supply."
"And they want me to personally go to the Antique Association. They will be waiting there and promise to give me a great benefit. As long as I go there and receive the benefit, I will definitely agree to their antique prices."
"I feel this might be a trap, so I wanted to discuss it with you."
Lin Xiaotian said with a smile, "Wife, leave this matter to me. I'll handle any trouble; you just need to focus on developing the company."
"There's no smoke without fire. I'd like to see what they are planning. I'll go there personally as well."
"Then be careful. Call me if anything happens." Chu Nianxue was very aware of Lin Xiaotian's strength. If they intended to harm Lin Xiaotian, President Wu and the others would be the ones to suffer in the end.
Lin Xiaotian said with a confident smile, "Wife, don't worry. If they dare to play any tricks, I will definitely make sure they never return."
"If it can truly bring us benefits, then I can't wait to agree to this matter. I really want to see what this great benefit they are offering is. If they can't deliver this benefit, hehe!"
He didn't finish the rest of his sentence, but the implication was clear.
