Hearing his words, Ye Li almost slapped him. He frowned and glared at him, saying, "Who has time to repay a favor? If I die, all the grudges will be written off. Why would I have to come all the way to you?"
Lang Xiaoyao touched his head upon hearing this and said, "Alas, it was a little hard for me to accept this for a while. After all, you suddenly became a Condensed Spirit Stage cultivator, and my thinking couldn't keep up with the changes in your realm."
When Ye Li heard Lang Xiaoyao's words, he shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, Brother Lang, just tell me how I can become a guest elder of your family."
Lang Xiaoyao finally suppressed the strange emotions that were churning in his heart at this moment, and said: "The second condition is that you have to go to the Ocean Palace to undergo a test. As long as you pass the test, you can officially become a guest elder of my Lang family."
After thinking about it for a while, Ye Li asked doubtfully: "What is the Sea Palace? Can you tell me what the test is in advance?"
Lang Xiaoyao shook his head upon hearing this and said, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but I don't know either.
This type of assessment is completely confidential. Only those who take the assessment know what the assessment is about. No one else has any way of knowing.
Although I am of direct bloodline, I am only a younger generation in the family and have no right to interfere in these matters.
If Brother Ye is really ready to become a guest elder of my Lang family, I can introduce you to my grandfather right away."
Thinking that Ye Li had already reached the Concentration Stage at such a young age, his future achievements would be limitless. Now that he had taken the initiative to become a guest elder of the Lang family in order to help him, if he could really defeat the Shui family in the Sea Shark Chase, that would be a great favor.
Ye Li nodded and said, "Brother Lang, I am not kidding you, I really decided to help you.
I think if I can help you win the competition, I should have a certain say. Then I will give up the reward and ask your grandfather to agree to your marriage with Miss Su. What do you think? "
Lang Xiaoyao didn't expect Ye Li to say such a thing. He was shocked, but at the same time, he felt a warm current rising in his heart.
"Brother Ye, you... you actually still want to help me, I... I am so touched."
Lang Xiaoyao was so excited that he couldn't even speak clearly for a moment.
Ye Li looked at Lang Xiaoyao, whose face was filled with excitement, and said, "Brother Lang, don't be too happy yet.
First, I have not yet become your guest elder.
Second, the game hasn’t been won yet.
Third, after I win, if I propose conditions, your family may not necessarily respond to them.
You should wait until I really put forward the conditions and your parents and grandfather all agree, then thank me."
Lang Xiaoyao shook his head upon hearing this, grabbed Ye Li's shoulders and said, "No, Brother Ye, I am deeply moved by your kindness.
There are many people who add icing on the cake in this world, but few who help others in times of need. You are willing to risk your life to go out to sea to participate in the shark chase, and you are willing to give up the reward to help me. I... I will never forget this kindness!"
As Lang Xiaoyao spoke, his eyes were filled with sincerity. Ye Li's words just now had a profound impact on him.
There are many people in this world who call him a brother, but not everyone really treats him as a brother. Even some brothers in the family who are truly related by blood may not be willing to help him.
The current Ye Li, who had only met him a few times, was actually willing to help him so wholeheartedly. This really touched his heart deeply.
Ye Li looked at Lang Xiaoyao and laughed, saying: "Okay, Brother Lang, I actually came here to ask you for help. When the time comes, I will help you and you will help me too, then we will be even."
Hearing Ye Li's words, Lang Xiaoyao was stunned. Then he remembered that he had never asked Ye Li why he came to the East China Sea.
The coast of the East China Sea is far inland. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for Ye Li to come so far unless he has something to find him or comes here to play.
"By the way, Brother Ye, I haven't asked you yet what exactly brought you here for. You didn't come here to play with me, did you?"
Lang Xiaoyao asked.
Ye Li nodded and said, "I didn't come here just to play with you, Brother Lang. I just wanted to ask you for help.
But I have already seen you before entering your Haidong City. It is really a coincidence."
"Brother Ye, if you want me to help you with anything, just tell me directly.
Our relationship shouldn't be so distant. Since we have experienced life and death together, and now we can help each other in times of crisis, I think our relationship is more than just ordinary friends."
Lang Xiaoyao said to Ye Li.
Ye Li thought about it and said with a smile: "You are right, Brother Lang and I hit it off right away and we are very much like-minded. We are indeed more than just ordinary friends.
When Brother Lang learned about my fight with the Tan Tai family, he went out of his way to find someone to help me and saved my life. I will always remember this kindness in my heart.
Now I won’t be fussy with you, Brother Lang. I’ll just tell you what I need.
I originally came here because I wanted to go out to sea, so I wanted to ask you for help, Brother Lang, to ask if you have a boat suitable for one person to go out to sea. I want to borrow it from you or buy it. "
After hearing Ye Li's words, Lang Xiaoyao thought for a moment and said, "Brother Ye, the ship you want is driven by one person? This is really difficult to handle. Generally, sea vessels require many people to operate.
If you don't have any skilled boat operators around you, Brother Ye, I can find some for you."
Ye Li shook his head and said, "No, it's not because of this reason. I am going to go out to sea because I have some personal things to do. I may encounter danger on the way, so I don't want to take others with me.
If the Lang family really doesn't have a sea vessel that can be operated by one person, can I order one from you? I know that you must have craftsmen who can build ships."
Lang Xiaoyao hurriedly said, "No, Brother Ye, we do have some ships that can be operated by one person, but these ships are very precious resources in the family.
Our family generally does not allow outsiders to use it, let alone sell or rent it.
I think my grandfather will never agree to your request easily, but if you can really help us win this shark chase, maybe he will be happy to give you one of those ships that can be operated by one or two people."
After hearing Lang Xiaoyao's answer, Ye Li nodded. Now it seems that his previous decision to help the Lang family was a very wise one.
