Not to mention that these people were from 3 different families, and there was already a big difference between them, that it was impossible to be settled in a short time.

At that moment everyone was looking carefully at the old man who was strongest between them, and it was hard not to notice that his greed was really deep at that moment.

He had thought that this was the limit he could go on this life, and was some kind of surrender to his fate, and luck as an elder of his Tang family.

It wasn't that he didn't have more dreams and ambitions when he was young, and even now, it was just that he had lost the drive, and missed the power to fulfill those.

Right now he was having a second chance, a second drive in his life. It was something he had never thought possible before.

It needs to be mentioned that the Tang family had only one powerhouse of the Soul Formation Realm as their last line of defense, and the others still needed a few tens of years at least to reach that stage.

But now in front of him was a sure opportunity for him to reach the Soul Formation Realm in one step, and become a powerhouse for his Tang family.

Like that not only his status would be even more elevated in the family, but also he could create a new life and opportunities for his line descendants.

Clearly, he wasn't the only one thinking about all this, but he was the one who was the strongest in their midst, and the only one who had a chance to win against the rest.

While he would not be able to win all alone, with Tianlong Yun's strength and help included they would surely be able to beat the rest of the people and maybe even kill them.

While the strongest old man was thinking about the offer he just received, the other old men in the team were really anxious.

They were all placing themselves in place of that guy and they thought that most probably they would take that offer. After all, it was an opportunity to grow stronger and live longer.

Not being able to support the tension, and also to prevent the situation from turning worse, the two old men at the 6th level of the Nascent Soul Realm, agreed through a sign and attacked Tianlong Yun.

Neither of them held back in the least, as their target and purpose were clear, they wanted to attack Tianlong Yun so that he wouldn't be able to even speak again, but still alive.

If he continued speaking then there existed the possibility that some old man whose brain cells were dying to accept his offers and go against the others.

But above all, they couldn't allow him to entice the team leader that was the strongest between them. Even if they managed to block them, or escape alive, the damage would be enormous.

They could allow such a situation to occur, for that reason they forgot their seniority, their pride, and their shame as they both attacked Tianlong Yun without a warning.

The first old man of the Yao family had his hands covered in an enlarged amount of Qi that took the shape of two big eagle claws. This was an Earth tier low-level skill called 'Golden Eagle Claws'.

As for the old man of the Qin family, he had his hands transform into rock-solid as he went for Tianlong Yun's head. The same skill that the old man protecting Qin Tuo had used.

Tianlong Yund didn't seem to have been expecting this, as he looked completely unguarded towards this attack, if he received it, even if he didn't die, he wouldn't be away from death.

Seeing this situation, in place of protecting himself, Tianlong Yun used his hand to open the white jade bottle in his hand, as a powerful medicine aroma penetrated the area, and try to eat the panacea inside.

It seemed like he was trying to make his stand, even if he died he wouldn't let them get their hands on the two miraculous panaceas.

The two old men that were attacking him were startled and really worried for a moment, because if their attacks connected without him defending himself, then he would surely die.

Their calculations about him still being alive after their attack included the fact that Tianlong Yun would try with all he had to protect himself in front of them.

But against all expectations, not only had Tianlong Yun not protected himself with all his best, he hadn't even taken a defensive stance and was just focused on eating those panaceas.

Was he some kind of idiot or something, or some kind of suicidal fool, how could he not think about his own life in such a situation.

They clearly couldn't understand what was going through his mind at that moment and were thinking about pulling their attacks, even though they might suffer some slight inner injuries.

Before those two could even think of doing something like that though, they had a bad premonition, as they felt a slight breeze behind their backs.

As if a ghost had run past them, and was now in front of them blocking their powerful attacks, and protecting Tianlong Yun from any kind of danger.

Now it was too late for the two old men to retrieve their attacks, and they decided to just go ahead with it and think about the consequences later.

It was just that even before their attacks could reach and connect to Tianlong Yun's body, they felt as if they had hit some kind of steel barrier.

The moment the two attacks collided with the steel barrier a loud noise was produced in the atmosphere, and then was heard a big explosion, accompanied by the dust, and debris.

Everyone was surprised at what was happening because it was clear that a moment ago Tianlong Yun didn't take any measures to protect himself.

And yet, something like this happened. But the moment the dust, and debris started to totally fall down and clear the view, the people around were even more shocked and stunned.

The person who had just confronted the two experts, and defended Tianlong Yun in front of the duo, wasn't Tianlong Yun himself, but their team leader.

It seemed like he had finally made his decision, and it wasn't a piece of good news for his team and the experts of the other two families.

He had decided to become their enemy and Tianlong Yun's helper. This was a great change that completely ruined their plan. Their best choice at the moment was to run away and escape!

They were all still a bit stunned, and in a dilemma about what to do next. It wasn't just not completing the assignment given to them by the clan, but also the loss of those two panaceas.

While they were still in their dilemma about how to act from now on, the old man who had appeared in front of Tianlong Yun retrieved his silver shield made of Qi.

As he turned to Tianlong Yun who had already lowered his hand with the bottle holding two panaceas and was looking at his eyes, as he said,

Senior:" Since Junior is so kind, and appreciative of this old man's skill, then this old man would like to take upon Junior's offer and give you some assistance in driving them away!"

He was acknowledged in front of everyone the fact that he was accepting Tianlong Yun's offer, and as soon as his words ended, curses started raining over him, especially from his fellows of the family,

Guy #1: Tang Yun you piece of dog crap, how dare you to betray the family!"

Guy #2:" You senseless piece of shit, what do you think you are doing, going with the enemy. Are you that tired of living?"

Guy #3:" F*ck you Tang family people. I have always known that you guys are too shameless, and can betray us any time!"

Guy #4:" Yes, these human trashes of the Tang family are just unreliable, I don't know how our families agreed to work together with these guys."

Guy #5…

Soon the whole crowd seemed to be raining curses on him, as some people even started to blame his Tang family, swearing that if they escaped this place alive, they would destroy them.

On the other hand, Tianlong Yun looked satisfied, as if his big gamble up to now had worked out, and that the game was finally in his hands.

Looking at the 'senior' in front of him that seemed like he had betrayed his own team of people, and his own family for one of those panaceas, he said with a serious look on his face.

Tianlong Yun:" But can I trust you 'honorable' senior!?"

The old man seemed to have been expecting Tianlong Yun's doubts as he said,

Senior:" I am standing here in front of you and made an enemy of all the three big families, while also betraying my own family, and you say you can't trust me?

You are being a bit too shameless junior, but since it's like this, let us leave an imprint in each other's souls, and make a short time contract, what do you say?"

Tianlong Yun seemed really doubting, and attentive to the changes, in the old man's face and behavior, because it was too suspicious, but still nodded his head and moved forward.

The short time soul contract was the best way to trust each other and fight the others, there was no other choice.

In the meantime, the people that were looking at the scene didn't know what to do, as two of them even tried to run away, but they couldn't.

It seemed like they were into some kind of quicksand pit, that had sucked them, and didn't allow them to leave the place.

This terrified them, and all the people that were startled by their move, and had a look at them, including the senior that was about to make a short time soul contract with Tianlong Yun.

He was really affected for some reason, as a new dangerous light appeared in his eyes, and when he was just 3 feet away from Tianlong Yun, he used one of his hands to pierce Tianlong Yun's body…
