Chapter 3691: Universe Map! A Sudden Communication! Elder Ji! (5) Editor: Henyee Translations "Elder Ji!" Rong Yao, Wen He, and the others were astounded when they saw this elder. They hurriedly bowed respectfully. Leng Qianxue was no exception. Astonishment appeared on her cold and beautiful face as she saluted with the others. "Elder Ji?" Wang Teng was surprised. He sized up the elder with a sharp gaze. The other party wasn’t here but he could feel an indescribable pressure from his body. This was unbelievable. Even eternal level martial warriors might not be able to give him this feeling. Yet, this old man in front of him gave him this feeling. This wasn’t a simple person. He wondered what stage this elder was at and what identity he had. Looking at Leng Qianxue and Wen He’s reactions, it was highly likely that he was a senior from the Stellar Academies. Many thoughts went through Wang Teng’s mind. He wasn’t in a hurry to speak. He would wait and see. "Are y’all alright?" The elder on the screen finally opened his mouth. He seemed a little surprised. Based on the information he received, this small team must have met dark apparitions. There was a high chance that all of them were annihilated. He was just hoping for the best. That was why he called to check the situation. However, the result was out of his expectation. Although the number of martial warriors was reduced by half, many people were still alive. They seemed to have retained their fresh troops. Could it be that the spiritual herbs weren’t lost? "Elder Ji, we’re still alive, but many of our junior brothers and sisters have died." Rong Yao pulled a long face as he spoke first. "You don’t know what happened at that time. We were ambushed by the dark apparitions from the Devil Rock Race and almost got annihilated. Fortunately, I led everyone to resist with all my might, so we were able to hold on for a long time. We managed to survive after an unexpected rescue." He obviously wanted to reach a conclusion before Wen He exposes him for abandoning everyone and escaping. He felt that someone like Elder Ji wouldn’t care if he was speaking the truth. Wen He wouldn’t be able to do anything to him if he fooled him. As for Wang Teng, if he dared to talk back to Elder Ji, he would have to bear the consequences. "This isn’t what happened, Elder Ji..." Wen He turned pale in anger when he heard Rong Yao’s shameless words. "Wen He, why are you so insensible? Do you have to trouble Elder Ji for such a small matter?" Rong Yao interrupted him and glanced at him coldly. "You!" Wen He felt exasperated when he saw the threatening gaze. "Rong Rong Yao, what’s going on? Let him talk," Old Ji said. "Elder Ji, it’s nothing. There’s just a small misunderstanding. I will take care of it. How can I trouble you?" Rong Yao wanted to change the topic. "Oh right, you must be interested in the reinforcement I mentioned just now." "Oh? Tell me about it." Elder Ji didn’t mind. "Look, who is this?" Rong Yao immediately aimed the projection of his wristwatch in Wang Teng’s direction. He gave Wang Teng a fawning smile and said using voice transmission, "Wang Teng, let’s put an end to this matter. The Rong family owes you a favor. There’s no need for you to offend the Rong family over such an unimportant matter." Wang Teng glanced around him and saw the angry expressions on Wen He and the others’ faces. At the same time, he saw Leng Qianxue’s cold and indifferent gaze. His gaze returned to Rong Yao’s face, and a meaningful smile appeared at the edge of his lips. Rong Yao had a good plan. He would act first and report later. Then, he would come to him and say good things to him. This matter would be over. Wen He and the others weren’t as powerful as Rong Yao. What’s more, Rong Yao was the leader of this team so he had the lead. After he went back, he just needed to control the public opinion. Even if Wen He and the others talked bad about him, it would be useless. At that time, would others be more willing to believe Wen He or Rong Yao? The result was obvious. Of course, Wang Teng had to cooperate with Rong Yao to do this. He couldn’t do anything to Wang Teng and didn’t dare to be his enemy. He could only use the Rong family’s name to make Wang Teng afraid. Wang Teng shook his head uncontrollably. He didn’t know if he should say that this guy was naive or scheming. "Wang Teng!" At the same time, Elder Ji recognized Wang Teng. There was a slight fluctuation in his hoarse and old voice. "Yes, that’s me." Wang Teng smiled and bowed at the elder. Elder Ji sized him up carefully as if he was looking at a rare treasure. He only opened his mouth after some time. "You’re still alive!" "Of course!" Wang Teng replied. "How do you prove it?" Elder Ji stared at Wang Teng intently as if he could see through everything. "Senior, you can call my wristwatch directly," Wang Teng said. Elder Ji didn’t say much and hung up the call with Rong Yao. The next moment, Wang Teng’s wristwatch rang. Wang Teng was a student of Stellar Academy. It wasn’t difficult for Elder Ji to find his contact number. Wang Teng smiled and asked Round Ball to answer the call. Elder Ji’s projection appeared again. He glanced at Wang Teng again and suddenly smiled. "Good! Very good! Everyone thought that you were dead, but you still came back."
