When the news of Yang Junshan’s return spread throughout the entire Madame Yang, it was as if there was a festival going on.
In reality, ever since Yang Junshan had returned, the entire Yang family had been bustling with noise and excitement. Perhaps it was because they were celebrating, but all the activities that had not been held according to schedule, because they had been suppressed foeriod of time, started to take place in the clan one after another.
For example, the clan’s outer sect disciple recruitment, the elites selection, the promotion of the core disciples, and so on, although all of these events were carried out in an extremely orderly manner, they were all carried out in an extremely nervous manner.
In reality, when Yang Junshan returned to the Western Mountain, he had only revealed himself once inside the clan’s main hall. After seeing the few clan elders and high order cultivator s, he had gone to the Western Mountain to cultivate in seclusion. The other clan members had very few chances of meeting Yang Junshan, but this did not stop them from worshipping and worshipping this Yang family.
Ever since he had returned from the Yanzhou, Yang Junshan’s body had been wounded. It was not only because he had been chased down by the silver-shined Ying Qi, but also because his internal organs had also suffered heavy injuries while breaking the seal on Burning Heaven Island’s Glazed Glass Wall.
However, during his recuperation, Yang Junshan was not completely clueless about the matters of the clan. Every few days, he would summon a clan’s high order cultivator to meet them, and understand the clan’s experiences and recent circumstances. At the same time, he would give pointers on the cultivations of the cultivators and answer the questions they were facing during their cultivation.
“That’s about it. In the meeting hall that day, most of the high order cultivator s in the family agreed to pool their resources and provide Thirteen with the resources to break through to the Dao Realm first. Sister-in-law didn’t object. The situation then …”
On top of the west mountain, Yang Junshan and Yang Junping were walking and chatting, and Yang Junping told him a general story behind everything that happened in the meeting hall.
Yang Junshan waved his hand and interrupted him, “I havough understanding of the situation, and I also understand the reason for your decision. Old Thirteen is also a suitable candidate for our clan to break through to the Dao Realm.
Yang Junping said: “Then that Old Thirteen, he —”
Yang Junshan laughed: “Let’s continue, since he has already made preparations to break through to the Dao Realm, then do not interrupt him, the clan’s sincerity must definitely be fulfilled, furthermore, adding on to that, an additional Dao Realm existence will also be able to consolidate our clan’s position, this time I am trapped in the Yanzhou, and my clan is immediately suppressed, which is a very obvious lesson.”
Hearing that Yang Junshan had no objections to this matter, Yang Junping also heaved a sigh of relief, and laughed: “This matter was brought up by Xin Zhang at the beginning, but at that time, in the business hall, it made all of us seniors extremely angry. If it were not for the fact that our clan’s situation was worrisome, I’m afraid that this brat would not have done something like this.”
Yang Junshan continued to laugh: “As juniors grow up, they naturally want to sound out their own voices to prove their existence. As elders, we should at least be a bit more lenient and give them space to rise.”
Yang Junping nodded his head, but said: “Even so, I am afraid that after the juniors grow up, their thoughts will become complicated, and their goal of doing things will no longer be simple.”
“What’s important is not what he’s thinking, but what he’s doing, isn’t it?”
Just as Yang Junshan’s voice fell, a light wind blew through the mountain forest, bringing about a wave of heat. It turned out that the two brothers had unknowingly walked to the side of the magma pond where the fire vein was.
Yang Junshan pointed at the magma pool and laughed, “I always said before that Old Thirteen’s luck is usually the best. He doesn’t usually have to do it himself, and all sorts of opportunities will appear out of nowhere.
When he arrived at the center of the pond, he saw that he had taken out a jade bottle that was sealed with layers of restrictions from within his sleeve. Following the flickering of the cyan light in his palm, the layers of restrictions on the surface of the jade bottle began to melt by itself.
As Yang Junshan opened the stopper of the jade bottle, an orange flame suddenly sprayed out from the mouth of the bottle.
“Whoa, what’s inside? This flame seems a little extraordinary!”
Yang Junping who had roamed the world for many years had already made great progress in terms of both his knowledge and insight.
Yang Junshan tilted the jade bottle in his hand, and one scarlet bead after another fell out of the bottle and into the lava below him. When the bottle containing the nine beads fell, he flipped the jade bottle, and before the flames inside shot out again, he stuffed the bottle into the mouth of the bottle. The azure light in his palm dispersed and layers and layers of restrictions appeared on the jade bottle.
However, Yang Junping’s attention was not on the jade bottle, but instead, completely focused on the changes occurring in the magma pond.
After the nine scarlet-red liquid beads had dripped down, the originally calm magma pool immediately began to churn violently as if it had been boiling. Intense fire elemental energy dispersed outwards from the pool, but was forcibly pressed into the magma pool by Yang Junshan after he had confined it, and the soil and rocks around the magma pool began to melt under the high temperature of the scorching heat. The pool’s area continued to expand, and in the time it took for an incense stick to burn, it almost doubled in size.
When Yang Junshan walked up the shore from the top of the pond, the magma pond had already calmed down once more. However, Yang Junping could still feel that the concentration of fire elemental energy had more than doubled.
“Brother, did the rank of this intermediate level fire meridian increase?” Yang Junping asked.
Yang Junshan turned his head to take a look, and laughed: “It hasn’t completely stabilized yet, but it’s only a matter of time before it becomes a large-scale fire vein. At that time, you should remember to condense some sort of fire type treasure.”
Yang Junping nodded his head, and asked again: “Oh right, brother, what kind of treasure is that crimson red liquid that you just dripped into?”
Yang Junshan laughed: “It’s a bead condensed from the blood essence of the Great Witch Huang Ting, in the past few years, I only refined eighteen beads, and just now, I used nine at once, it hurts my heart to death.”
When Yang Junqi came to see Yang Junshan, she specifically waited for her in the pavilion at the side of the mountain and prepared a suitable chair for her.
“Come, sit here!”
When Yang Junqi arrived at the pavilion with her stomach bulging, Yang Junshan hurried to invite her to sit.
“It’s about to give birth, right?” Yang Junshan asked.
“Soon. In less than two months.” Yang Junqi replied. A hint of maternal gentleness surfaced in her cold personality in an extremely rare instance.
“Two months? “I’m afraid that we won’t be able to deal with Lang Prefecture in two months. Jun Xin should go and take Brother Zhang’s place when the time comes.” Yang Junshan said.
Yang Junqi quickly replied: “No need, the matters with the family are more important.”
“It took a lot of effort for the two of you to cultivate to positive results. I’m not going to be an evil person. How is it? Have you gotten along well with Chang An?”
Yang Junqi laughed, and did not say a word.
Yang Junshan then changed the topic and said: “Peak of the Gangli Accumulation Realm, after the child is born, we will begin to break through the Heavenly Dipper Realm. The clan currently needs experts to stand up.”
Yang Junqi’s brows furrowed slightly as she looked at Yang Junshan and said, “Fourth brother, don’t you think that Thirteen will advance to the Dao Realm?”
Yang Junshan was stunned, he did not expect Yang Junqi to see through his intentions so easily, and could not help but feel a little unnatural, laughing bitterly: “It’s just that Old Thirteen is a little anxious, and has been walking rather smoothly. Although his cultivation is not weak, she has never formed her own system, and with Old Thirteen’s high spirits, I’m afraid that normal Dao Realm cultivators would not be willing to do it.”
“What about Ninth Brother and Fourth Sister? Since they are already Heavenly Dipper Realm cultivators, wouldn’t it be easier for the clan to fully support them? ”
Rather than saying that her questions were sharp, it would be more accurate to say that her questions were simpler.
Yang Junshan pondered for a moment, then slowly explained: “Amongst the members of the clan in our generation, the most talented ones would be Old Thirteen and Tenth Sister. However, compared to Old Thirteen, Tenth Sister is usually much more quiet, and is also more able to guard her loneliness, preferring to stay in the spiritual plantation and cultivate on her own.”
“In this way, compared to old Thirteen, who has been on a rampage outside for many years, perhaps you have less fortuitous encounters and opportunities, but you have to admit that the cultivation you have is something that you have obtained bit by bit without any external assistance, that you have a much firmer foundation than him, and this kind of long term and lonely cultivation also allows you to be much more resolute than old Thirteen. Thus, if you two are both in the Heavenly Dipper Realm realm right now, I would actually be more optimistic about your ability to advance into the Dao realm.”
Yang Junshan spoke in a tone that was as calm as possible, as if he was narrating a fact, not eloquently speaking it out. This way, it would be more convincing to people like Yang Junqi.
“As for you, Ninth Brother, his talent is not as good as yours and Thirteen’s. Although he has already advanced to Heavenly Dipper, in reality, one reason is because you were pregnant and delayed your cultivation, and another reason is because of his own lucky chance. It will be even more difficult to advance further in the future.”
Furthermore, all of his thoughts are currently on cultivating the Heaven’s Edge Sword Art, so this art is ranked extremely high on the Precious Techniques and Divine Powers Ranking. If you want to master it within ten years or even longer, you probably won’t be able to do so, and this is also an opportunity to train his cultivation.
“As for your Fourth Sister-in-Law, her cultivation and personality are enough as an alternative to the clan’s Dao Realm. Just like how Qin Zhang proposed at the family meeting to support Thirteen in advancing to the Dao Realm. Since Madame Yang is a family, a clan cannot be narrow-minded.
Seeing Yang Junqi’s surprised gaze, Yang Junshan laughed: “But you must be careful, with your Fourth Sister’s intelligence, even if the family resources fall on your shoulders, you may not be able to reach the top when you advance to the Dao Realm. You must know, from my own perspective, I am still willing to see you advance to the Dao Realm first, if not the entire Madame Yang will becomlace for her.”
Yang Junqi blinked her eyes, and said: “Could it be that Fourth Brother won’t worry about the matters of the family in the future?”
But today, Yang Junshan had a whole new level of respect for Yang Junqi, and at the same time, he was proud of his own decision.
I have already found my own Path, I am afraid that I will not have time to think about other things for a long time. This road is very difficult, and also very dangerous, I must focus all my efforts on it, not to mention that the matters of the family have been on the right track all these years, my existence is more of a symbolic significance. If the Yang family wants to become an ancient family, it will need to rely on its own orderly inheritance to nurture generations of outstanding descendants.
