Chapter 1749: Chapter 1746: Old Friends

Yang Hao’s heart was hanging in his throat, and he still hadn’t fully adapted.

He had brought his son and daughter along with Yang Fei to the Cultivation World, intending to go to Shang Qing Sect to cultivate and seek an opportunity to break through to Foundation Establishment.

He hadn’t expected that as soon as they arrived, his daughter would be noticed by a Divinity Transformation Realm big shot and accepted as a disciple.

He knew this was a heaven-sent opportunity for Yang Qingchan, but in his heart he still felt a bit reluctant.

Although he had already stepped into the ranks of cultivators, subconsciously he still regarded himself as a mortal, believing that a warm bed with wife and children meant the whole family should stay together.

But since Yang Qingchan herself was willing to take a master, and Yang Fei hadn’t objected, as a father he tacitly agreed.

"Qing Chan, since you’ve acknowledged this expert as your master, from now on you must listen to your teacher’s guidance and work hard to learn some real skills." Yang Hao exhorted.

Yang Qingchan looked at her father and elder brother, her eyes turning red.

She had always been together with her family since childhood. This time coming to the Southern Domain, she had only parted from her mother; by her side were still her father, elder brother, and uncle. But now, having suddenly taken Xiao Yixian as her master, she would have to part from her father, brother, and uncle, and for a moment she felt a bit panicked.

"Father, don’t worry, your daughter will definitely cultivate diligently. Father and Elder Brother must also take good care of yourselves," Yang Qingchan said.

Yang Hao and Yang Dong could not hide their feelings at this farewell, yet they truly felt happy that Yang Qingchan now had such a powerful backer.

Shen Qingyang and Qiu Tianshu sized up Yang Hao and Yang Dong with their eyes. They had originally wanted to follow Xiao Yixian’s example and draw closer to Yang Fei and even Earth, but in the end they gave up on this idea.

A Divinity Transformation big shot taking disciples has a bottom line; their disciples’ future achievements should at least reach Nascent Soul Formation.

But after looking, given the talent and aptitude of Yang Hao and Yang Dong, even if personally guided by them, the ceiling would at most be Core Formation. If they wanted to reach Nascent Soul Formation, aside from Spirit Root Talent, comprehension and spiritual sensitivity were also extremely important.

Clearly this father and son were still somewhat lacking in those aspects.

And if they, dignified Late stage Peak of Divinity Transformation Realm experts, took disciples who in the end could only achieve Core Formation Cultivation, they would likely be ridiculed behind their backs in the future.

As for drawing the two of them into the Yan Family and Shifang City’s camp and promising to find them a Nascent Soul Realm master, that went without saying.

Given Yang Fei’s status and position in Shang Qing Sect, if he brings these two to Shang Qing Sect, the sect will also assign Nascent Soul Cultivators to act as their masters. Since that’s the case, these two would never separate from Yang Fei to defect to Shifang City or the Yan Family.

"Here are thirty bottles of Genetic Liquid Medicine, plus three million top-grade spirit stones." Yang Fei directly handed out a storage bag.

Xiao Yixian, Guanglingzi, Qiu Tianshu, and Shen Qingyang all slightly contracted their pupils, fixing their gaze on the storage bag suspended in mid-air; none of them reached out to take it immediately.

Although they had been eagerly awaiting this tribute, anyone who moved to take these resources without prior discussion would inevitably arouse suspicion from the other three.

It was Guanglingzi who spoke first: "Nephew Yang Fei, since this is an offering to the four families, let you help divide it evenly."

The other three also nodded in approval.

Yang Fei didn’t dither and directly split the items into four shares; each of the four took one portion.

After confirming that it was no different from the Genetic Liquid Medicine they had seen before, the four put their portions away. Xiao Yixian turned to Yang Qingchan and said, "Come along with your master."

Yang Qingchan nodded, kowtowed to Yang Hao, bade farewell to her elder brother, then rose and walked to Xiao Yixian’s side. She paused, turned back, and looked at Yang Fei, saying, "Uncle, before my grandmother and mother pass away, could you take me back so I can fulfill my filial duty?"

Yang Fei nodded. "Rest assured, when the time comes, I’ll inform you."

Xiao Yixian casually tossed Yang Fei a Communication Jade Scroll. "As long as it’s within the Southern Domain, you can contact me with this."

Yang Fei put the item away and clasped his fists. "I’ll trouble Elder Xiao to take extra care of my niece. Wangxian Sect will be completely unfamiliar to her; please just don’t let her suffer grievances or hardship."

Xiao Yixian gave a faint smile. "Leaving aside that I truly like this girl, just for the sake of her relationship with you, this old man will protect her well."

Yang Fei laughed heartily, feeling that this person was quite straightforward and not hypocritical.

The reason he dared let Yang Qingchan leave with the other party was because he was certain that as long as he was still alive and still controlled the production rights of the Genetic Liquid Medicine, Wangxian Sect would have to treat Yang Qingchan as an honored guest.

Xiao Yixian summoned a Spirit Boat, and after taking Yang Qingchan aboard, shot off in the direction of Wangxian Sect.

Qiu Tianshu and Shen Qingyang also departed separately.

Guanglingzi said to the three of them, "Let’s go as well."

Yang Fei nodded. The journey to Shang Qing Sect was far; even if he went at full speed alone it would take several months. Taking Yang Hao and Yang Dong along would only slow him down further, and if they encountered any trouble on the way, he really might not be able to protect the two of them completely.

Travelling together with Guanglingzi would be much safer.

"Everyone’s leaving—no one needs to stay here to guard?" Yang Fei asked curiously.

Guanglingzi smiled. "Each family will send people back to guard; we’ll take turns on duty."

Yang Fei nodded.

Such an important location, the four forces would never leave it without powerful guardians.

First, it was to prevent any of the others from playing dirty tricks when one side had no people here. Second, Earth’s appearance was not something of just a year or two, and the Genetic Liquid Medicine was so miraculous that many already knew about it. Who knew when it would attract covetous Outer Domain forces? If they couldn’t hold this place, then in the future they would lose absolute control over the resources Earth provided as tribute.

Guanglingzi’s Spirit Ship was comparable to Wan Daorong’s; its speed was extremely fast.

Yang Hao and Yang Dong had seen a Spirit Ship before, but never one so grand and huge. Standing at the front of the ship and looking down, they felt the scenery racing rapidly backwards, clearly the ship’s speed was astonishing.

"Eh, there are cultivators coming by Sword Flight over there." Yang Hao suddenly pointed in one direction and said.

Guanglingzi did not come out from inside the Spirit Ship.

Hearing this, Yang Fei stepped out to take a look, and sure enough, he saw two cultivators in the distance flying on swords, approaching them.

But he didn’t pay it much mind and said, "Scenes like this are common in the Cultivation World; no need to make a fuss."

Yang Hao gave an acknowledging sound.

"Is Taoist Yang Feiyang present?"

At that moment, a loud voice came from afar.

Hearing the voice, Yang Fei’s expression changed slightly.

Li Yue?

His Divine Sense immediately spread out, locking precisely onto the two people coming by Sword Flight—it was indeed Li Yue and Gan Qian.

"Master-uncle, please wait a moment; I’ll go meet these two old acquaintances." Yang Fei transmitted to Guanglingzi.

The rapidly travelling Spirit Ship abruptly stopped in mid-air.

Yet the people on board did not feel any huge inertial force, which made Yang Hao and Yang Dong secretly marvel once more, thinking that treasures of the Cultivation World were truly extraordinary. For such a large Spirit Ship to brake suddenly at high speed without any inertial impact inside was simply inconceivable.

Before the ship had fully stabilized, Yang Fei shot out with a whoosh to meet the two.

Since these two dared to block Master-uncle Guanglingzi’s Spirit Ship, clearly they had been waiting here for some time and had something important to discuss with him.
