Before the dust had settled, the ragged breathing of the two men at the bottom of the crater could already be heard clearly.
Panda rubbed his chin, his gaze sweeping over Tang Yuchen, who stood braced against his hammer in the deep crater. "This Tang Yuchen really does have a few tricks up his sleeve," he murmured.
Chen Chen nodded slightly. "Uncle Tao, we invested far more than a little in him: a Ninth-Grade Treasure Medicine, the Mystic Vein Golden Melon, plus a fifty-thousand-year Mountain Giant Ape Soul Bone."
The Mystic Vein Golden Melon was the ninth-grade treasure form of the immortal herb Earth Dragon Golden Melon. Its primary attributes were earth and metal, supplemented by strength and yang.
Its nature and properties were a match made in heaven for Tang Yuchen's Yellow Emperor Hammer Martial Soul, fitting it down to the smallest detail.
It was by refining this treasure that he had broken through the level seventy threshold in one fell swoop and successfully raised his Martial Soul to the ninth grade. It had also helped him comprehend the two intents of Dust Gathering and Mountain Descent.
At that, Panda lowered his wine flask and smacked his lips, understanding flashing through his eyes. "Tsk, tsk. With that much capital poured into him, it looks like he'll have to work like an ox and horse for the family for the next decade or two just to repay it."
The corners of Chen Chen's mouth lifted in an almost imperceptible curve. "He carries enough weight to warrant it."
"Whether it's his own forging skills or the Yellow Emperor Tang Family he represents, both are worth investing in."
"As for whether this deal ultimately makes a profit or a loss, that remains to be seen."
