Lang Xiaoyao did not refute this time, but just smiled awkwardly. It seemed that he also knew that he had indeed made quite a few drinking and eating friends in the past.
After Lang Taotian finished talking about Lang Xiaoyao, he turned his head to look at Ye Li, a smile appeared on his face, and said: "Ye Li, are you really willing to help my Lang family participate in this sea shark chase
But I have to tell you in advance that being chased by a sea shark is very dangerous and you may lose your life at any time.
Furthermore, if you want to become a guest elder of my Lang family, you must challenge the Sea Palace. Only after you pass the challenge can you become a guest elder of my Lang family."
Ye Li answered very seriously: "Grandpa Lang, Brother Xiaoyao has already told me about these situations. I don't mind them."
Hearing Ye Li's answer, Lang Taotian nodded with great satisfaction and said, "Okay, since you are willing to make sacrifices for my Lang family, after the matter is accomplished, my Lang family will naturally not treat you unfairly and will definitely reward you handsomely."
Ye Li glanced at Lang Xiaoyao, and quickly shook his head and said to Lang Taotian: "No, Grandpa Lang, I don't need any other rewards. I just have two small requests."
Lang Taotian was stunned and asked, "What do you want?"
Lang Xiaoyao said: “Hehe, my first request is for Brother Xiaoyao.
I hope you, Grandpa Lang, will not oppose his marriage. Brother Xiaoyao and Miss Su are in love with each other and are a perfect match made in heaven. It would be the best outcome if they could be together."
Lang Taotian obviously didn't expect Ye Li to actually say this, and he was a little unresponsive for a moment.
After being stunned for a long time, he looked at Lang Xiaoyao and said, "Xiaoyao, you really met a good friend this time.
Okay, I can agree to this request, what about your second request?"
Hearing that Lang Taotian agreed to this, Lang Xiaoyao's face immediately broke into a smile, his eyes full of excitement.
Ye Li also smiled and said, "Grandpa Lang, my second request is that you can sell me a sea boat that can be operated by one person."
Hearing Ye Li's second request, Lang Taotian felt a little confused and said, "Ye Li, what do you want this kind of single-person sea boat for? This kind of boat is very expensive to build, and each one is very precious."
Ye Li said: "I have some things to do recently and need to go out to sea, but I don't want to take a lot of people with me. After all, the risks in the sea are not small. So I hope to find a sea boat that can be operated by one person."
After hearing Ye Li's answer, Lang Taotian hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, if you can help my Lang family win the competition, I won't let you buy a ship. I will just give you one."
When Ye Li heard what Lang Taotian said, he immediately laughed and said, "Okay, then I'll thank Grandpa Lang first."
Lang Taotian smiled and said, "Since you are willing to risk your life to help Xiaoyao and participate in the Sea Shark Chase, my Lang family will naturally not treat a good friend like you unfairly.
It’s getting late today, I’ll let Xiaoyao arrange a place for you to stay and rest.
Tomorrow morning, I will send someone to find you and take you to the Palace of the Sea to take part in the trial.
If you can pass the test in the Sea Temple, you will immediately become a guest elder of my Lang family.
Only if you have the status of a guest elder can you participate in this sea shark chase."
Ye Li nodded after hearing this, and Lang Xiaoyao pondered for a while before saying to Lang Taotian: "Grandpa, can you secretly tell me what the trial in the Sea Palace is?"
Lang Taotian glanced at Lang Xiaoyao and Ye Li, and after a moment of silence, he finally sighed and said, "Okay, although it's against the rules, the rules are made by people after all, so I'll make an exception this time and tell you about the situation in the Ocean Palace in advance.
In fact, there has always been a monster imprisoned in the Sea Palace. We encountered it accidentally and it took us a lot of effort to capture it.
This monster originally had no name, and it is not recorded in the classics, but we in the Lang family call it the Phantom Mirage."
Hearing the name uttered by Lang Taotian, Lang Xiaoyao and Ye Li couldn't help but repeat it.
Lang Taotian said: "Yes, that's right, it is the Phantom Mirage, it has a magical ability, which is to create illusions.
The body of this Phantom Mirage is at the level of a god, but it does not have any attacking ability at all, and only has the defensive ability of a god.
With its defensive capabilities, once the mirage shell is closed, ordinary divine attacks will not be able to break its defense at all.
Its only way of attacking is to use the opponent's body as a template to create an illusion that is exactly the same as the opponent within a certain range.
The phantom has the exact same strength as his opponent, and is basically like two people in a mirror, with the exact same appearance and strength.
In other words, Ye Li, if you enter the Sea Palace to participate in the trial, your opponent will be a complete version of you. If you want to pass the trial of the Sea Palace, you need to defeat the other you.
Of course, although the attack state of this you created by the phantom is almost exactly the same as yours, there are still some subtle differences. After all, everyone has many unique things that the phantom cannot imitate. "
After hearing Lang Taotian's words, Lang Xiaoyao and Ye Li couldn't help but show a look of surprise, because neither of them had ever heard of the existence of Phantom Mirage.
"Grandpa, is it really as mysterious as you said? Can the Phantom Mirage directly show a person's strength?"
Lang Xiaoyao asked suspiciously.
Lang Taotian patted his shoulder and said, "Of course I can't lie to you. This Phantom Mirage is also one of our family's treasures. It is very suitable for testing your own combat capabilities.
Ye Li will go back tonight and prepare well. I hope he can pass the trial of the Sea Palace tomorrow."
Ye Li nodded and said, "I will prepare well and try to pass it tomorrow."
Afterwards, Lang Xiaoyao took Ye Li and Lang Taotian to chat for a while, and then took Ye Li away from Lang Taotian's residence.
The servants in the family originally wanted to arrange Ye Li to rest in the guest room, but Lang Xiaoyao was unwilling.
The place he lived in was quite spacious, so he simply asked Ye Li to live in his house, and they could drink and chat together in the evening.
Although Lang Taotian asked Ye Li to prepare more, after thinking about it, Ye Li still couldn't figure out how to prepare, so he was too lazy to think about it and drank with Lang Xiaoyao all night.
The next morning someone came to find Ye Li and wanted to take him to the Sea Palace to take part in the trial.
Lang Xiaoyao followed behind, left the Lang family and walked towards the port.
