From the days of Buried Sky Ruins blocking the meteors outside the borders to the times of being surrounded and attacked by four Dao Realm experts; from the risks of successfully breaking out of the encirclement and suffering the changes to the time of Madame Yang suddenly dying, Yang Junshan had long been physically and mentally exhausted.
In his rage, he had lost control of Lao Yang and himself, causing Yang Junping to feel awkward. Madame Yang was about to show signs of internal strife, even if Yang Junshan’s internal organs were as tough as steel, it would be difficult to suppress the blood in his heart.
This truly frightened all the clan members of the Madame Yang on the western mountain. With Lao Yang’s death, if anything happened to Yang Junshan, then the entire Yang family would really be on the verge of collapse.
He still vividly remembered the argument that happened at the Western Mountain just now. If not for Yang Junshan’s sudden return, who knew what would happen next!
Internal conflict? It was just that no one from the Madame Yang would be willing to mention that word.
Why was Yang Junping so muddleheaded at the time?
The reason wasn’t just Lao Yang’s death, but even more importantly, it was due to Yang Junshan falling into the Buried Sky Ruins. Under that kind of situation, even if Yang Junping was extremely confident in his big brother, he never would have thought that Yang Junshan would still be able to return alive. Furthermore, Yang Junping was well aware of the dangerous situation that the Madame Yang clan without Yang Junshan would be facing, which, coupled with the impact brought by Lao Yang’s fall, had caused him to be filled with pessimism and pessimism about the future of the Madame Yang.
Even though Yang Junshan was disappointed with the Yang family, he knew very well how important he was to the entire Madame Yang sect. After Yan Qinxi supported him from the side, Yang Junshan waved at her to indicate that it was alright, and then used a low voice that everyone heard: “Arrange for our family’s territory to be taken back. If we delay, we don’t know how we’ll be destroyed by these people.”
Seeing that he had stopped, Yan Qinxi’s legs were steady, so he nodded his head: “Don’t worry, I know what to do!”
Yang Junshan once again swept a glance at the cultivators of Madame Yang from the corner of his eyes. He could tell that everyone was worried for him, but from today onwards, it would be difficult for the Yang family to be as pure and united as it was in the past. With the rise of the many cultivators of Madame Yang, they might still be able to advance and retreat together regarding the safety of the entire Madame Yang Clan.
For example, when Yang Junxin and Yang Qinzhang joined hands to attack Yan Qinxi, the former might not be able to understand Yan Qinxi’s way of doing things, but the latter probably still wanted to let out their own voices within the Madame Yang Clan.
It was impossible to stop them; one could only rely on their nimble wrists to achieve a balance of interests, as well aough attitude to pool resources from all sides. The latter came from the cultivation base of the cultivator himself.
Yang Junshan undoubtedly possessed the power to suppress everything in the entire Madame Yang Clan, but in comparison to Yan Qinxi, Yang Junping was evidently still too young. One could imagine that the Madame Yang would definitely receive a new round of expansion in strength, and Yang Junping’s cultivation was obviously unable to become the representative of the Madame Yang’s family in the entire cultivation world. In terms of intelligence, status, or strength, no one else in the entire Madame Yang was more suitable than Yan Qinxi.
Even with Yang Junshan’s full support and with the Madame Yang being surrounded and attacked, logically speaking, his performance had been perfect, but Yan Qinxi’s calm expression did not have the slightest hint of arrogance. In fact, he had even restrained as much of the power that he had displayed during the operation of the formation as possible.
“Master He, the younger generation of the clan was reckless earlier, I hope you don’t mind!”
Unexpectedly, Yan Qinxi actually apologized to He Tiesheng first.
Hearing that, Yang Qinzhang was naturally dissatisfied, the communication talisman with Lin Canghai on He Tie Sheng’s body was definitely something, but this person was clearly Lin Canghai’s accomplice, how could he let it go so easily?
However, Yang Qinzhang was not an idiot. He wanted to become the leader of the fourth generation of cultivators in the Yang family, wanted to become the voice of the younger generation in the Madame Yang sects, and he even had the ambitions of the fourth uncle, the Jun Shan Dao.
He Tiisheng obviously knew that Yan Qinxi represented Yang Junshan. Yan Qinxi making such a gesture was to show him that Yang Junshan did not mind the attitude of letting bygones be bygones.
“I, Tie Sheng, am ashamed. Although I do not have the heart to harm Madame Yang, but it is a fact that I had some interactions with Lin Canghai through transmission, but never would I have thought that I would be taken into account by him. The old patriarch values me highly, the Madame Yang is magnanimous, Tie Sheng will definitely repay this kindness with kindness.”
Yan Qinxi smiled and nodded, then said: “I still need master to control the Artifact Forging Hall, I’m afraid master will be very busy next.”
With that, Yan Qinxi turned and faced the Madame Yang cultivators at the western mountains, and said: “The tables have turned, it’s our Madame Yang’s turn to retaliate!”
Yan Qinxi’s tone was calm, and did not contain the slightest bit of inciting emotion. Then, she looked at Yang Junqi, and said with a slightly apologetic tone: “Next, I still need to trouble Tenth Sister and Thirteenth Sister-Sister-in-Law. The two of you, bring some people north to take over the southern part of the Yu Cheng.
Hearing that, Yang Junqi laughed: “Fourth sister did not consolidate her cultivation, but I still have a question.”
Saying that, Yang Junqi raised her hand up, just like a child who had just started cultivating in the Madame Yang’s Cultivation Hall, and said: “That, I presume there are quite a few cultivators in the high order cultivator that are occupying our territory, and there are only Thirteenth Sisters and I, isn’t their strength a little weak?”
Yan Qinxi smiled, but her tone was filled with confidence: “You two, please bring your men forward, if Heaven-Shaken Sect dares to make a move, you two can only ask Yuxiao Sect and Jade Sword Sect for help, now, the cultivators of these two sects are extremely eager for us Madame Yang to invite them to help, but in my opinion, Heaven-Shaken Sect will very likely escape, there iigh chance that there will be a fight.”
Yang Junqi nodded and said, “Understood!”
“Spiritual Master Zhou is severely injured. After taking back Yu Cheng, I will have to trouble Tenth Sister to temporarily take care of it!”
Yan Qinxi instructed once more, then looked at Su Baozhang: “Brother Baozhang, bring Qin Zhang and Ru Lan to the Huyao County, I’m afraid that they won’t be able to fight this battle, but you all must be fast, and try your best to recapture the Huyao County before the Zichu finds the various treasury set up by the clan. The longer we drag this fight out, the greater our losses will be!”
Su Baozhang nodded, called Ding Rulan, and then pulled Yang Qinzhang who was beside him and was about to leave.
“I’ll go with you!”
Yang Junping who had been silent all this while suddenly spoke out: “I’m heading to Sunset Ridge to take a look!”
Although the two of them were originally punished to go to the mines to mine, and the people who knew of their true identities were very few, Yang Junping was still filled with worry.
Yan Qinxi nodded her head, and said: “That’s fine, but there’s no need to follow Brother Bao Zhang and the rest, Jun Xiu will be bringing Ba Wu and An to counterattack the Tuo Wu Shan, you can follow after, and after everything is settled, you can go and support them, I think it will be easy to take back the Tuo Wu Shan, but the Heavenly Spirit Sect might not be willing to give up on the Ling Zhang County.”
Yang Junxiu said unconcernedly, “As long as Greywolf does not attack, I, Ling Zhang County, can defeat him the first time and the second time. It’s good that the Heavenly Spirit Sect is not willing to defend, just in time to avenge Old Bear and Ba Xin!”
After Yang Junhao sent off the two Adept Tai Gang s, he noticed that most of the people had assigned tasks, but only he had not, and anxiously said: Fourth sister, Fourth sister, everyone is busy, you have to arrange some things for me, why don’t I follow Brother Bao Zhang and the others to Huyao County?
Yan Qinxi laughed when she heard it, “I had thought that you would request to go to Ling Zhang County.”
Yang Junhao curled his lips and said, “I don’t think the number of people in the Heavenly Spirit Sect is enough to kill Jun Xiu alone. Why should I go?”
However, Yan Qinxi said: “We cannot kill the people from the Zichu, because now is not the time to fall out with them.”
Yang Junhao was a little stunned, and said: “Then I really have nothing else to do?”
Yan Qinxi laughed and said: “You and little sister will go look for your Fourth Brother first. You only have three months, three months later, all of us will head east!”
As the encirclement of the Madame Yang s was resolved, Yang Junshan returned to the Western Mountain.
In fact, the entire process of the recovery of the cultivators of Madame Yang went smoothly, but after the various sects and Spiritual Masters fled under the Western Mountain, the entire Mengyu County was already empty.
Along the way, Yang Junping met Yu Xiaohe, Yang Qinyao, Yang Qinxi and Yang Qinxi who had broke out of the encirclement at the Sunset Ridge’s Great Mine, and then, the four of them went back to the Sunset Ridge. However, the three sects’ cultivators who were originally standing guard here had clearly received the notice beforehand, and most of them had already left.
Yang Junping reported the situation of the Sunset Ridge to the Western Mountain, and very quickly, he received Yan Qinxi’s notification, causing the entire mine to be completely occupied. From now on, the big mine of the Sunset Ridge would belong to Madame Yang’s family!
Su Baozhang’s actions in the Huyao County were successful, the people of the Zichu did not have any conflicts with the Yang Family cultivators, every time the Yang Family cultivators arrived alace, the people of the Zichu would retreat, but they did not evacuate the entire Huyao County, but rather, the people of the Madame Yang took a step back, and the time they managed to gain would be used to transport the cultivation resources that they had plundered in the Huyao County.
For the Yang family to be able to rise to the top of the cultivation world of the Yuzhou in a short span of a hundred years, other than Yang Junshan, this monster, it was undeniable that the Yang family’s self-management ability was considered to be the best amongst the various forces in the Yuzhou. Forget about other things, just the portion of the spiritual valley’s savings from transporting away from the Huyao County, was enough for two counties of the Zichu to produce sufficient resources in a year.
The process of Yang Junxiu taking back the Western Tuo Wu Shan was also extremely smooth. A few groups of demon wolves that were raised didn’t give her any trouble at all, so she quickly brought a group of demon cultivators and entered the borders of the Ling Zhang County.
However, what was slightly different from Yan Qinxi’s expectations was thaough battle had indeed occurred in Ling Zhang County, but this was merely a showdown between two people!
As the vice sect master of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, the Seven Spirit Sect’s Sect Leader, the Seven Spirit Sect’s Daoist Master Qi Ling, had coincidentally met Yang Junxiu when she was on patrol, and she did not have Bao Yuer at her side.
However, in the end, it was still Yang Junxiu who became a bit stronger. After continuously consuming the Blood Algal Pills to purify the White Tiger bloodline in her body, Yang Junxiu’s cultivation seemed to have always been stagnant, but in reality, her strength had already reached the peak beneath her Taihang Realm. Otherwise, when she returned from the Buried Sky Ruins that day, she wouldn’t have teamed up with Bao Yuer to suppress Zhang Yueming.
The White Tiger bloodline was one of the few descendants of the Royal Family who had been the co-owner of the entire Demon Clan, the “Demon Emperor”. Adept Qi Ling was naturally not the only one that was defeated, in the end, her body was cut in half by Yang Junxiu and she fell on the spot.
On top of the Western Mountain, in the secret room that Yang Junshan normally used to cultivate, Yang Junhao looked at the wisp of flame light that was dancing on top of his fingertips, and snorted with uncontrollable joy: “Grand Sun Primordial Flame!”
Yang Junshan nodded, and said: “You have three months. Three months later, regardless of whether or not you are able to cultivate the Seven Sun Flowing Fire Arts to the Great Perfection Stage, more than half of the cultivators other than me in the Madame Yang will launch their attacks on the Heaven-Shaken Sect.
