WDQK-Chapter 41: The Beautiful Housekeeper, Master Yan's Shock!
Lin Tian said, "Last time we met Master Yan in Divine Weapon Hall, he gave you a talisman. Didn't he say that you could take the talisman to the Thousand Gold Association to find him? I want to borrow it for use."
Lin Dong's expression shifted slightly as he asked, "Brother Lin Tian, do you want to find Master Yan?"
"Yes. Although we have become Symbol Masters now, we don't have the offensive methods typical of Symbol Masters. I plan to learn a spiritual secret skill from Master Yan."
Lin Tian nodded and didn't hide anything.
Upon hearing this, Lin Dong did not hesitate to take out the talisman that Master Yan had given him from his Qiankun bag and handed it to Lin Tian. "Brother Lin Tian, here you go."
Lin Tian took the talisman and smiled. "I know you're hesitant to get close to Master Yan because you worry he might see through your secrets. I don't have any concerns in that regard."
"Once I learn the spiritual secret skills from Master Yan, I'll pass them on to you later."
"Yeah," Lin Dong nodded in response, feeling quite optimistic about it.
Lin Tian pondered for a moment and said, "Take that batch of Yang Yuan Dan and buy the spiritual medicines you need. I will see Master Yan first. We will meet at the inn in the evening."
After a pause, Lin Tian asked Qing Tan, "Are you going with me or with your brother Lin Dong?"
Qing Tan frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "I'd better go with brother Lin Dong first. It would be too boring to accompany you to see that old man."
"Haha, whatever you want," Lin Tian replied with a smile, giving a few more instructions to Lin Dong and Qing Tan before turning to head deeper into the Thousand Gold Association.
The Thousand Gold Association was divided into inside and outside. Transactions outside were generally not considered too precious. The deeper you went into the establishment, the more valuable the items became.
Moreover, there was an auction house in the center of Thousand Gold Association, which specialized in auctioning valuable items.
Correspondingly, the higher-level managers of Thousand Gold Association were also closer to the inner circle.
Lin Tian took Master Yan's talisman and quickly arrived at the inner circle of the Thousand Gold Association.
"Sir, what do you need to buy?" a blue-clad servant approached and asked Lin Tian respectfully.
Lin Tian showed the talisman to the young servant in blue and said calmly, "I have something to ask Master Yan."
The young servant took a look at the talisman and then apologized, "I am of low status and need to report to the higher-ups. Please wait a moment, sir."
"Yes, thank you for the trouble," Lin Tian nodded slightly and said politely.
"I dare not," the blue-clothed servant bowed respectfully and hurried to inform his superior.
With nothing to do, Lin Tian casually looked around at some of the merchandise counters, but he didn't find anything that particularly caught his interest.
Suddenly, there was a commotion behind him.
Lin Tian frowned slightly and turned to see where the disturbance was coming from.
The first thing that caught his eye was a woman in a red dress.
The woman had skin as white as snow, and her dignified smile illuminated her rosy face. Her plump curves and elegant figure exuded a mature charm that was captivating.
Lin Tian looked at the woman and immediately made a judgment in his mind. If nothing unexpected happened, this woman must be Xuan Su, the general manager of Thousand Gold Association.
In fact, Lin Tian's guess was correct.
Next to Xuan Su stood a tall woman in green.
This woman was also very beautiful, but compared to Xuan Su, she appeared somewhat immature and cold, as if she were keeping others at a distance.
This somewhat immature and cold woman was Xia Zhilan, the eldest daughter of Thousand Gold Association.
The commotion just now had been caused by the arrival of these two beauties.
Lin Tian could vaguely hear many people around him whispering about the two women.
Xuan Su walked lightly, twisting her waist, and approached Lin Tian with a smile on her face. "Sir, are you looking for Master Yan?"
Lin Tian nodded and said, "Yes, this girl must be the manager of Thousand Gold Association. I wonder if you could take me to see Master Yan."
Xuan Su smiled and said, "My name is Xuan Su, and I am the general manager of Thousand Gold Association. What is your name?"
Lin Tian replied, "I am Lin Tian. It's a pleasure to meet you, General Manager Su."
"Mr. Lin, you are too polite. I heard that you have a token of trust given by Master Yan. I wonder if you could let me see it?"
Xuan Su smiled and said politely.
"Please take a look, Manager Su," Lin Tian smiled slightly and showed her the talisman from Master Yan.
After Xuan Su took a look, she quickly confirmed it. "This is indeed Master Yan's talisman. Please keep it, Mr. Lin."
Lin Tian put away the talisman and said with a smile, "Now, can I trouble Manager Su to take me to see Master Yan?"
Xuan Su smiled and said, "Of course, Mr. Lin, please follow me."
"Thank you very much," Lin Tian expressed his gratitude to Xuan Su, then followed her to the attic of Thousand Gold Association.
Xia Zhilan stood to the side, remaining silent while observing Lin Tian with curiosity.
Not long after, Lin Tian, guided by Xuan Su, met Master Yan.
"Huh?"
When Master Yan saw Lin Tian, he couldn't help but let out a slight exclamation of surprise, and then he quickly flashed to Lin Tian's side, stretched out his finger, and touched Lin Tian's brow.
Just like before, his actions were exactly the same as when he first met Lin Dong.
After a moment, Master Yan retracted his finger, looking even more surprised, and murmured, "I didn't expect that I was wrong last time."
Xuan Su and Xia Zhilan, who were standing by, looked at Master Yan's actions somewhat confused.
Xuan Su asked with a smile, "Master Yan, this Mr. Lin Tian came to see you with your talisman, so I brought him here, but is there something wrong?"
"No," Master Yan shook his head slightly, then turned to Lin Tian and said with a smile, "Your name is Lin Tian, right? I have some impressions of you. You were with the boy who rejected me last time. It seems that he didn't think it through, but you did. Do you plan to learn the way of talisman symbols from me?"
Master Yan had just checked and found that Lin Tian's spiritual power talent was even higher than Lin Dong's, which surprised and delighted him.
When Xuan Su heard Master Yan's words, her beautiful eyes couldn't help but focus on Lin Tian, her gaze flickering.
Xia Zhilan was also a little surprised.
Lin Tian clasped his fists and bowed to Master Yan, saying sincerely, "I came to Master Yan this time to express my gratitude to you, and on another note, I wish to make a deal with you."
"Haha, that's strange. If you want to make a deal, you should go to Su, the chief steward. Why would you want to make a deal with me, an old man?"
Master Yan felt a tinge of disappointment when he heard that Lin Tian was not here to become his disciple, yet he continued to smile.
Lin Tian explained, "Last time, I practiced the Spiritual Movement Chapter given by you with my brother, and now I have barely advanced to the second-seal Symbol Master realm…"
Before Lin Tian could continue, Master Yan suddenly interrupted him, his face full of disbelief!
"What? You are already a second-seal Symbol Master?"
