Qin Qi immediately replied, "I still need to explain this matter to President Mu of our company."

"Hmm, that's right. It would be better if she came along tonight!" Wan Hao waved his hand vigorously, showing a very firm attitude.

Qin Qi immediately opened his phone.

Only then did he realize that there was no signal in the ice cave earlier, and Mu Ning, Ling Feixue, and Yan Qingyu had already made several calls to him.

He immediately returned the call.

Mu Ning quickly answered, and upon hearing Qin Qi's voice, she asked, "Qin Qi, is that you? Are you alright?"

Qin Qi smiled and said, "I'm fine, it's me, President Mu!"

Mu Ning's voice brimmed with care and concern, "Where have you been the past few days? We couldn't reach you by phone, and we were worried sick about you!"

Qin Qi chuckled, "President Mu, I have good news to tell you!"

Mu Ning looked surprised, "Good news?"

Qin Qi responded in detail, "Over the past few days, I visited the Wan Family. Today, Patriarch Wan Hao wants to invite you to dinner! I wonder if you would honor us with your presence!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Ning's voice quivered with shock, "Qin Qi, what are you talking about? Are you joking? Patriarch Wan inviting me to dinner?"

You should know, Red Flower Company isn't even ranked in the entire Martial Arts District.

Yet, Wan Hao is the leader of the Five Great Clans!

Patriarch Wan doesn't easily dine with outsiders. Once he sits and eats with someone, it equates to announcing to others that the Wan Family has a strong relationship with Red Flower Company!

Qin Qi calmly said, "Of course I'm not joking!"

Wan Hao spoke at the side, "Tonight, let's set it at Yunhe Restaurant. Many of the ingredients for this restaurant's dishes are picked from the mountain, and some require spirit stones to purchase."

"President Mu, today I, Wan Hao, am the host. You just need to give us the honor of your presence!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Ning didn't hesitate and immediately agreed.

Soon, the call ended.

Wan Hao waved his sleeve, "It's getting late. Wan Qing, you take our friend Qin Qi to the Wan Family first. We'll meet afterwards at Yunhe Restaurant!"

Wan Qing's attitude toward Qin Qi naturally made a 180-degree turn, inviting Qin Qi with a wave of his sleeve.

Wan Huarou also wanted to join, but was stopped by Wan Hao.

Watching Wan Qing and Qin Qi leave together, Wan Huarou pouted, "Dad, why are you stopping me? I should be the one showing Qin Qi around!"

Wan Hao glanced at Wan Huarou, "Humph, do you fancy this Qin Qi?"

Wan Huarou looked a bit shy, but considering it wasn't a secret, she admitted honestly, "Yes, I like him, what's wrong with that!"

Wan Hao replied expressionlessly, "Humph, don't think I don't know. Your initial intent was to please this boy. It was just by coincidence that this boy found the cold marrow crystal!"

Wan Huarou, realizing she had been exposed, scratched her head lightly, "Dad, you can't hide anything from you. But Qin Qi is really amazing; he found the cold marrow crystal. This is a huge help to our Wan Family, don't you dare deny it!"

"Humph, our Wan Family never owes favors. Since Qin Qi found our family heirloom, what I said earlier naturally counts. However..."

Wan Hao suddenly changed his tone, "You want to have something go on with this boy, but I need to keep watching."

"Watching what?" Wan Huarou looked puzzled.

Wan Hao spoke expressionlessly, "If in tomorrow's mine competition, he can hold onto the No. 1 mine, then I'll consider your matter!"

"Dad, what do you mean? The mine competition, aren't you planning to let our Wan Family help Qin Qi?" Wan Huarou asked confusedly.

Wan Hao, with hands behind his back, replied sternly, "Humph, are you truly naïve or pretending to be? Do you really think that even with our Wan Family's help, this boy named Qin can hold the No. 1 mine?"

"The kid dared to choose the No. 1 mine, he'll definitely become a target for everyone. Without our Wan Family's help, he's definitely dead!"

"Even with our Wan Family's help, it's hard for him to hold on. Do you think I would entrust my precious daughter to a dead man?"

Wan Huarou listened to these words, and her expression was filled with seriousness, worrying for Qin Qi.

She quickly clenched her fists, "I don't care, tomorrow I will help Qin Qi!"

Wan Hao shook his head, "No one dares to touch your life, but this Qin kid isn't that lucky. If he still can't hold the No. 1 mine, then he's not worthy of you! And in the future, you shouldn't associate with this kid!"

Listening to these words, Wan Huarou blinked her eyes.

She believes Qin Qi has the ability.

Very soon, it was evening!

In a luxurious private room at Yunhe Restaurant.

It was Qin Qi's first time witnessing the dishes Martial Artists ate, indeed as Wan Hao said, many dishes he had never seen before.

Moreover, by eye, he could clearly feel the unusual aura emanating from these dishes.

Mu Ning was sitting next to Qin Qi. Upon seeing Wan Hao, she politely opened her mouth, "Patriarch Wan, it has been years, but your cultivation has increased again."

"Haha, Sister Mu Ning, your cultivation has also improved a lot." Wan Hao replied with a smile.

Mu Ning hurriedly spoke with fear, "I wouldn't dare compare myself to Patriarch Wan!"

Qin Qi, observing Mu Ning's timid demeanor, could easily deduce that Mu Ning's cultivation likely fell far short compared to Wan Hao.

Soon, Mu Ning softly suggested, "If Patriarch Wan assists in the mine competition and helps secure the No. 1 mine, afterward, Red Flower Company is willing to share th... no, fifty percent of the resources with the Wan Family!"

Wan Hao listened and smiled.

He then spoke, "Rest assured, in this mine competition, Wan Qing and Wan Lei will definitely assist this boy upon entering the mine area. But, as for resources, our Wan Family doesn't want fifty percent, just ten percent."

"T-Ten percent?" Mu Ning was shocked, her eyes full of doubt, "Patriarch Wan, you aren't joking, are you? How can this be possible?"

Wan Hao waved his hand, "Our Wan Family never takes advantage of others. Mu Ning, do you really think collaborating with Red Flower Company is for your sake? Although our Wan Family hasn't liked the Zhang Family for ages, and also coveted the No. 1 mine for a long time, if it wasn't for the huge favor Qin Qi did for us, our Wan Family wouldn't really join Red Flower Company in this muddy water!"

Mu Ning looked at Qin Qi with surprise and joy.

She truly couldn't understand what exactly Qin Qi did for the Wan Family.

However, it managed to make Wan Hao to help them like this!
