Martial City, Liu Fei's luxurious villa.
At this moment, Liu Fei was sitting in front of his computer and looking at the many posts he had made so far.
Each post had hundreds of likes, hundreds of comments, and thousands of shares.
After two days of condemning the author of Battle Through the Paradise in the beginning, Liu Fei had finally triggered the interest of other famous authors. Not long after, some of the famous authors chose to join the fun and jointly scold Yang Song and the author of Battle Through the Paradise.
However, even after so many posts, the scolding subjects mentioned directly or indirectly in the posts had never made any retaliation, not even one.
The author of Battle Through the Paradise, The Sky Laughs The Earth Teases, didn't seem to even have any social media account.
Because he had never replied to the posts that he and the group of other authors had made.
As for that old man, after many days of being scolded, he only made a post relevant to his products, Great Energy Pill and Spirit Energy Pill.
He didn't seem to care about the posts he made as if he didn't even see it.
"What a thick-faced old man!" Liu Fei scolded.
He was actually quite angry at Yang Song. In the past, every time he scolded someone, that person would reply back and start a quarrel with him. However, Yang Song directly ignored him, making him and the group of other authors seem like a group of lonely clowns instead.
Liu Fei really wanted to write a post cursing Yang Song directly now. But thinking of Yang Song's three sons, he decided to keep it in his heart instead.
With this, he chose to change his subject of venting anger.
In the first post that Liu Fei made, he mentioned that he would make a request to the National Writers Association to take down Battle Through the Paradise, to implement stricter manager of online literature, and so on.
However, until now, he had not written a word to the National Writers Association.
Thinking of this, Liu Fei took out his phone to dial a VIP number.
After the call was connected, there was no sound from the other side of the phone, but Liu Fei still took the initiative to say with a smile, "Hello, Secretary Yi, I am Liu Fei."
With Liu Fei's initiative, the person on the other side of the phone responded, "Oh, so it's Chairman Liu. What can I do for you?"
Secretary Yi's voice was calm, and it didn't sound arrogant or humble, but most of the people who knew him all respected him and didn't dare to take him lightly just because of his neutral attitude.
On the contrary, those who had dealt with him in the past all knew that among all the high-level members of the National Writers Association, this Secretary Yi was the shrewdest and cunning person.
Even his boss, the president of the National Writers Association, was not as shrewd or cunning as this guy.
The National Writers Association didn't seem to have much power, but in fact, its power was not small at all. The president of this association alone was from a powerful family, not to mention other members such as old famous writers, poets, journalists, and so on.
So Liu Fei, a small chairman of Martial City Writers Association, or a branch of National Writers Association, had to act very politely when facing this Secretary Yi.
Liu Fei laughed humbly and said, "It's like this Secretary Yi, I got a branch of Abyssal Diamond Bamboo, and I want to donate it to the association."
"Oh, Abyssal Diamond Bamboo?" Secretary Yi seemed to be surprised, "This is a precious material that can be used to make a good calligraphy brush. Are you sure you want to donate this thing?"
Liu Fei took a deep breath and even nodded his head, "Yes, I'm very sure. After joining the association for so long, I haven't really donated anything useful so far. So this time, I want to donate this thing."
Abyssal Diamond Bamboo, this was a type of bamboo that could only be found in the abyss and it couldn't grow outside the abyss at all.
This special bamboo's durability was simply unquestionable and no different from that of a diamond. Each branch was very slender and only the size of an adult's pinky finger. However, each branch was undoubtedly precious.
Since Liu Fei was willing to give away such a thing, then, of course, Secretary Yi wouldn't refuse. But this Liu Fei must have his other purpose for doing this. So without any gibberish, Secretary Yi said straightforwardly, "Just state your request, I will help you."
Hearing this expectant answer, Liu Fei was quite excited, but he suppressed it in his heart, "It's nothing much, Secretary Yi, I just want to request the literature department of the association to check up an online novel that has no literary value at all, that is Battle Through the Paradise."
"Haha, it's just this little thing? Don't worry, I will help Brother Liu check it 'carefully'. This request of yours is too trivial. If you need my help again in the future, just inform me," Secretary Yi laughed and said calmly.
"I see, then I will have to trouble Brother Yi. Thank you very much," Liu Fei said enthusiastically.
After the call was hung up, Liu Fei closed his eyes and revealed a very wide smile.
Actually, he didn't lose much in this time's transaction. On the contrary, he gained more than the loss instead.
First of all, the Abyssal Diamond Bamboo was something that Wu Dahai had given him previously for the sake of 'friendship' after many years.
Secondly, he would be able to leave more impressions on Wu Dahai. These several days, he had made so many posts scolding Yang Song, Yang Song's website, Yang Song's pills, and so on. He might not look like it, but he actually wanted to have a very good relationship with a powerful martial artist like Wu Dahai.
Thirdly, Liu Fei wanted to try catching the olive branch, Secretary Yi. So giving away the Abyssal Diamond Bamboo to the National Writers Association actually wouldn't really go to the association at all, but to Secretary Yi's personal pocket instead. This was the reason why Secretary Yi agreed to him so readily.
And if he could have more contact with Secretary Yi in the future, Liu Fei estimated that he would have a possibility of interacting with the president of the National Writers Association, whose background was very powerful.
Now, most of his goals had been achieved. That super popular book, Battle Through the Heaven, that 'had no literary value', would disappear from the world of literature sooner or later.
That kind of no-name and new-emerging author who displayed such an arrogant attitude needed a serious lesson if he wanted to join the world of literature. Now, he, Liu Fei, was helping the world by doing a good deed.
Previously, Yang Song posted a message saying that if the author of Battle Through the Paradise saw his post, he would like to invite him to join that Grassy whatever website.
So after that Battle Through the Paradise novel was banned by the National Writers Association, the goal of slapping Yang Song right in the face would be completed and it would help Wu Dahai tremendously.
"Now, let's go to Runningnovel and inspect that trashy book," Liu Fei laughed happily and quickly typed in the web address of Runningnovel.
However, Liu Fei forgot that every time he saw the data of that book, he would get angry and his eyes turned green.
So when he saw the sky-breaking level of data of Battle Through the Paradise, it was as if he had a seizure instantly. His mouth twitched and his eyes turned green with jealousy.
"Damn, how can such a trashy book be so popular?" Liu Fei cursed before he started his usual act of finding fault in Battle Through the Paradise and cursing the author with all his might with his fake account.
…
On the other side, Yang Haodong, who was sitting inside the office of the Military Governor Mansion, didn't know that he had been targeted by the National Writers Association at all.
Yang Haodong was currently busy blocking this certain annoying account that had been messaging him the "Here" word endlessly since the launch of his novel.
After Yang Song posted the message on UU saying that he would like to invite the author of Battle Through the Paradise to relocate his book to the Grassy Novel website, that Ran Zhi guy started to change his routine by creating many accounts and sending him the word "Here" nonstop each minute.
Yang Haodong was annoyed by this so that he had to turn off his internet most of the time.
"This fucker, should I report him to the police and charge him for harassing me online?" Yang Haodong looked at the red 999 notification in the chat section of the website and said gloomily.
Report chapter
A few hours later, Yang Haodong finished writing his chapters and was preparing to upload the new chapters on the Runningnovel website.
However, after he opened the "Author's Area" page, he found that Battle Through the Paradise had disappeared.
Feeling that it might be because of a bug, Yang Haodong tried to refresh the page several times, but the result was still the same.
Yang Haodong also tried to search for his book in the Reader's Area, but after typing "Battle Through the Paradise" and pressed the search button, only "Sorry, no result is found" appeared.
…
Ten minutes later, after trying every method available, the result was still the same.
"My book disappeared? Or did someone from Runningnovel delete it?" Yang Haodong whispered with a very ugly expression.
Just because he didn't want to sign a contract with them, they deleted his book?
Yang Haodong took exhaled a foul breath and picked up his phone to dial the customer service number of Runningnovel company.
"Hello, welcome to customer service of Runningnovel. What can I help you with?" A sweet female voice resounded.
"Hi, I am the author of Battle Through the Paradise. Why did my book disappear suddenly?" Yang Haodong put on a calm expression and asked normally.
"Please wait a moment, sir. I will help you check the problem."
A few seconds later, the sweet voice sounded again, "Apologies, sir. It seems like there has never been a book called Battle Through the Paradise on our website."
Yang Haodong's calm expression turned black in an instant, "Are you sure about that? Don't tell me that you don't know my book too! Runningnovel? What a good Runningnovel!"
Then, without waiting for the other party to reply, Yang Haodong ended the call directly. He knew that she must have been ordered from the management team of that company, so continuing to talk wouldn't make any sense at all.
Yang Haodong clenched his fist, his muscles bulged, and his veins swelled.
A few minutes later, he calmed down and made another call.
"Oh, the sun must rise from the north for brother Haodong to call me!" A surprised voice sounded from the other side of the phone.
"Xiu Mo, do you know Battle Through the Paradise?" Yang Haodong skipped the gibberish and dived into the subject directly.
Xiu Mo didn't seem to mind Yang Haodong's straightforwardness as he said, "Battle Through the Paradise? Hehe, of course I know it. As the president of the National Writers Association, how can I not know such a precious masterpiece? But why do you ask this?"
Yang Haodong took a deep breath and revealed, "I am the author of that book."
"Ah!" Xiu Mo let out a sound of exclamation and said, "You're that book's author? Our mighty military governor Yang Haodong of Tong City can actually write such a good novel?"
"What? You're looking down on me?" Yang Haodong rolled his eyes unhappily.
"By the way, what are you telling me this for?" Xiu Mo asked curiously. Since Yang Haodong decided to call him and tell him this secret out of nowhere, there must be more to it.
"It's nothing much, but Battle Through the Paradise suddenly disappeared from that website. I figured that it might have something to do with the upper management team of that company. I don't know what to do so I called you."
"Huh? You call this 'nothing much'?" Xiu Mo exclaimed again. "This is a big matter! As a diehard fan of your novel and you, this matter is extremely big! Don't worry, I will help you solve it. I will give you good news soon."
Yang Haodong was taken aback, he didn't expect that this guy was his fan. But he replied, "Good, then I will wait for good news."
After hanging up the phone, Yang Haodong leaned on his chair.
Actually, Yang Haodong could find the number of the president of Runningnovel by himself and called the other party directly. But he didn't want to reveal his identity to them so he chose to call Xiu Mo instead.
That guy Xiu Mo was from the Xiu Family in Holy Martial Capital City. A few decades ago, when Yang Haodong went to battle in the abyss, he rescued a weak-looking guy with glasses from the claws of a monster. Later, Yang Haodong and that guy became good friends.
And that guy was of course Xiu Mo, the second young master of the prominent Xiu Family.
The power of the Xiu Family was really not small, however, since Xiu Mo didn't have much accomplishment in martial arts, the position of the head of the family fell into the hand of his big brother.
Fortunately, Xiu Mo, this naughty and fanatical guy, was not interested in that position since young and he and his brother had a very good relationship with each other, therefore, Xiu Mo's power was only second to his big brother in his family.
But even with such great power, Xiu Mo still didn't care. The only things he cared about were novels and monsters.
Not long after, Yang Haodong's phone rang and it woke him up from his thoughts. Picking up the phone, it was Xiu Mo.
"Brother Haodong, I found out why your book disappeared. This actually has something to do with my National Writers Association. It turns out that a famous author called Liu Fei bribed my bastard secretary and my bastard secretary ordered the Runningnovel company to mess with your book… For this, I apologize to you," Xiu Mo said quickly and apologized Yang Haodong quietly.
"Well, don't worry about it, it's not your fault," Yang Haodong chuckled and said.
"Also, I have already punished my bastard secretary, Yi Renhei. He's not my secretary anymore. Right, I also deleted that Liu Fei guy's name from my association and slapped him down from the position of Martial City's Writers Association's chairman. That Liu Fei guy actually scolded you a lot on social media. Battle Through the Paradise should reappear now. One more thing, as compensation, I want to give you the Abyssal Diamond Bamboo."
"Abyssal Diamond Bamboo? This is not good, right? You don't have to do this at all," Yang Haodong smiled and praised this guy for being such a righteous and understand person secretly in his heart. But if Xiu Mo really gave him that treasure, Xiu Mo would be the best person in Yang Haodong's heart.
"No, I have to give it to you. This thing wasn't bought with my money either, it is a bribe given to Yi Renhei by Liu Fei," Xiu Mo said firmly and left no room for rejection.
Yang Haodong could only laugh helplessly and accept the 'compensation' reluctantly, "Fine, just send it to my address."
"Oh, I almost forgot. There's one more thing. That Liu Fei guy has a very good relationship with the Wu Family in Martial City. I think it has something to do with the Wu Family. If you need my help, just call me. If I can't help you, I will ask my big brother to help you."
"All right, thank you this time."
"Yeah, if I have the opportunity, I will go to Tong City and ask for your autograph. See you."
After the call was hung up, Yang Haodong closed his eyes and muttered, "Wu Family? I see. It turned out to be that dog family. Liu Fei? The author of Infinity Mountain of Chaotic Snow? I didn't expect an author like him to be such a narrow-minded person."
Now, that Liu Fei and the bastard secretary of Xiu Mo had received their punishment. After they had offended Xiu Mo, their fat would end.
One more thing, according to what Xiu Mo had told him earlier, Liu Fei scolded him a lot on social media?
Yang Haodong was too busy writing novels and dealing with some affairs related to his work these days, so he had no time to pay attention to things on social media.
Taking out his phone, Yang Haodong opened UU and searched for Liu Fei.
As Xiu Mo said, this damnable guy really scolded him a lot. But what made him angry was that he didn't just scold him alone, he also scolded his father, Yang Song, at that.
It was fine if he scolded him alone, Yang Haodong would let the matter here. But he actually touched his inverse scale, then just be prepared to receive the real punishment.
Since young, Yang Haodong knew that although his father was quite shameless and cunning, he knew that in the entire family, his father actually suffered the most. He had to run here and there, do this and that, to raise him and his younger brothers.
Other people could scold him however they wished to, but if they dared to even just insult his father's hair, then he would never forgive those offenders.
That Liu Fei scolded his father for being an ignorant old man who knew nothing about novels? This must be the greatest joke he had ever heard in so many years.
That Liu Fei cursed his father to die soon? This must be the evilest curse in Yang Haodong's ears.
Good, Yang Haodong had decided. He would find that guy and teach him a profound lesson. He didn't care even if he had to commit a crime.
Report chapter
Yang Family courtyard, secret room.
After thinking for so long, Yang Song finally chose to cultivate in his bedroom temporarily. But when he completed the side task and got the Basic Talismans Manual, he would go outside to find a better place.
Yang Song quickly got up from the futon, stored all the important things in the storage space, and left the secret.
His destination was indeed his bedroom. He didn't go there to continue to cultivate but to change his clothes and prepare to go to Rivulet Park.
…
It was about 4 in the evening and Yang Song was wearing black sportswear while riding his hoverboard.
As expected, as soon as he left the courtyard, Yang Song spotted Su Xiaotuan right away.
However, today, she wasn't doing her live broadcast at all. She just jogged and tried to keep her pace with Yang Song.
Yang Song also slowed down his speed by design and kept chatting with her along the way.
"Elder Yang, I finally met you! How are you going to exercise today?" Su Xiaotuan asked curiously.
Yang Song put his hands behind his back and said, "Maybe just the usual."
"The usual? You mean you will just do the push-ups, pull-ups, and the likes?" Su Xiaotuan raised her brows and continued, "Aren't you already a martial artist? Shouldn't you practice combat technique instead?"
Yang Song smiled and said, "This old man exercises to rekindle his old bones and stiff muscles. If this old man practices combat technique carelessly, what should he do if he accidentally breaks his old bones?"
Su Xiaotuan didn't understand anything much about martial arts, but she still nodded anyway, "I see. Then, I can broadcast live when you practice combat technique, right?"
"Of course, you can. There's no harm in doing that."
The two chatted and chatted. But in no time at all, they arrived the Rivulet Park.
After the Undead Steel Scavenger incident that day, the number of ordinary people coming to Rivulet Park had been reduced.
However, the martial artists were not afraid of it that much. Hence, they still came here to practice or exercise as usual.
After Great Energy Pill and Spirit Energy Pill were put on the market officially, Yang Song's name in Tong City was naturally mentioned in the mouth of ordinary people and martial artists every now and then.
Great Energy Pill sold by Yang Song was just too good, so who wouldn't know him?
Consequently, many people in the park recognized Yang Song right away as some of them even trotted over to greet.
"Elder Yang, how are you?"
"Mr. Yang, should we exercise together?"
"Mr. Yang, do you want to dance with me?"
"Grandpa Yang, would you like to practice yoga with me?"
"…"
Yang Song naturally responded to them calmly one by one. But for some ambiguous questions, he purposely ignored them and just smiled gently.
After a while, Yang Song stopped, got off from the hoverboard, and started walking to the horizontal bar right away.
Su Xiaotuan also took out her phone and started broadcasted live video.
Hundreds of people joined the live broadcast room instantly.
…
Not far away from Yang Song's position, Hu Feifei was staring at Yang Song doing exercises with a cold gaze.
She really didn't like this old man, she felt that this old man of the Yang Family was too unworthy for her to pay attention to. But since her grandpa had already given the order, she could only compromise and complete the mission.
But every time she came to this Rivulet Park, she would think of a super handsome figure who defeated a Tier 2 General abyssal beast with one move. Her heart would stir like a restless bee smelling a fragrant flower.
Shaking her head with a slightly red face, Hu Feifei's gaze returned to cold, and finally to normal, as she walked towards Yang Song.
…
In the live broadcast room, many fans were watching and praising Yang Song constantly.
Then, out of nowhere, some keen fans instantly posted barrages.
"Look, a super goddess!"
"Damn, she's so hot! Huh, not good, my 'little brother' just got up angrily!"
"It would be great if she wears loli outfit like Little Tuan…"
"Yeah, if she is an anchor like Little Tuan, then I would like to be her loyal fan and buy her socks madly."
"Oh no, I think she's aiming for uncle Yang!"
"T-this is too unfair! How come with my handsome face, I can't find a girlfriend so far?"
"Hehe, upstairs, I think your handsome value is actually negative."
"Little Tuan, you can try to make friends with her and ask for her UU account for me, I will pay you."
"Tsk, it's really great to be a gold master!!!"
"…"
Su Xiaotuan at this moment was also looking at the pretty girl whose beauty far exceeded hers. But somehow, she felt malice from this girl. Her 'girl intuition' told her so.
Soon, that girl walked to Yang Song's side and revealed a smile. That smile immediately boosted her beauty by a huge margin. The fans in the live broadcast room almost fainted by this virtual attack.
Yang Song noticed that someone came near him so he stopped exercising and looked at the other party.
He was surprised to find that this was the pretty girl in black stockings he had seen not long ago when the Undead Steel Scavenger incident took place.
Seeing her today, Yang Song found that her temperament changed slightly from when he saw her before and her way of dressing also changed greatly from that day. There were no stockings today, there were only black sweat pants and a yellow hoodie today.
That girl smiled at Yang Song and started the conversation, "Hello Elder Yang, are you interested in practicing combat technique with me?"
Yang Song felt surprised inwardly. This girl was so bold?
He smiled and replied, "Do you know this old man?"
"Of course, I know you. I'm actually your fan on UU. Right, my name is Ting Meimei, you can just call me Meimei," Hu Feifei said enthusiastically.
"I see, but this old man has never practiced combat technique before. I'm afraid I can't accompany you," Yang Song sighed and felt that it was a pity.
Hu Feifei felt that this answer was as she guessed, so she said, "Then you can just watch me. You know, I also have a grandpa. He used to love watching me practice combat techniques in the past. You and he have a similar appearance so I feel quite close with you. But a pity that he left the world a long time ago."
Yang Song felt quite sad for her and said, "Sorry to hear that. Well, this old man will watch you practicing combat techniques."
Hu Feifei cheered up and smiled in an instant. Then, she finally noticed the unkind look from Su Xiaotuan. Her smile became stiff and she said cautiously to Su Xiaotuan, "This sister, can you not take a video of me?"
Su Xiaotuan came back to her senses, her unkind gaze returned to normal and she responded, "Oh sorry about that. I will turn off the live broadcast now."
After Su Xiaotuan put her phone back into her pocket, Hu Feifei revealed her smile again and she walked to a quite spacious area a few meters away from Yang Song and started revealing her moves.
Similar to that day, all her moves were killer and fatal moves. There were no superfluous actions at all. Every punch and kick seemed very practical.
After that day, Yang Song had a good or even better understanding of this technique even more than Hu Feifei herself.
Yang Song had also improved this technique with the flaws he found that day. So when seeing Hu Feifei performing these moves today, Yang Song didn't have much interest, but he pretended to look at Hu Feifei seriously anyway.
Noticing Yang Song's intense gaze, Hu Feifei sneered and snorted strongly in her heart. Sure enough, this old man had a very disgusting idea about her in his mind.
But on the surface, Hu Feifei didn't show any abnormality or any unusual expression. When she saw Yang Song looking at her, she just smiled brightly.
After performing one round of the old moves, Hu Feifei suddenly unveiled a new set of moves that Yang Song felt quite familiar with in his previous life.
Yang Song's brows frowned slightly, and his interest was piqued.
This time, the new moves that Hu Feifei was showing contained a continuous flow and connected to each other softly. Every action was quite slow and Hu Feifei herself seemed relaxed.
But about after the 25th move, the slow and smooth action changed abruptly. Those soft actions suddenly became as hard as steel or stone.
Yang Song thought was surprised in his heart, "Isn't this Tai Chi? No, this not a complete Tai Chi. All the 108 Tai Chi moves are soft, slow, and smooth like a gentle stream. However, there are only 25 Tai Chi moves in this technique."
Looking at her smooth action, Yang Song didn't think she was deliberately changing it at all. This should be a genuine technique, but it somehow contained Tai Chi moves in the first 25 moves.
Could there really be Tai Chi in this world too? Or were there other transmigrators who came from Earth and they spread this technique?
Yang Song looked at Hu Feifei performing combat techniques with great interest.
Not long after, Hu Feifei hit the 75th move and ended her session. She walked to Yang Song with a great spirit and asked, "How was it, Elder Yang? How were my moves?"
Yang Song nodded and complimented her with a laugh, "This old man doesn't know much about combat techniques. But your technique is very amazing. This old man almost lost his sense earlier, haha."
'Sure enough, you really have dirty thoughts about me. You even revealed your thoughts so shamelessly.'
But Hu Feifei still beamed and said quite shyly, "Thank you for the praise, elder. My grandpa also used to praise me like this in the past." Then Hu Feifei tossed the topic, "Right Elder Yang, can I invite you to dinner? I don't want to eat alone."
Yang Song grinned, "Sure, then let's invite Xiaotuan too."
"That's great! I can eat with two people today!" Hu Feifei almost jumped pretendingly in excitement. Her plan to get close to Yang Song was finally achieved.
Report chapter
Hu Feifei led Yang Song and Su Xiaotuan to a restaurant not far from the Rivulet Park. This restaurant was not a normal restaurant, most of the dishes on the menu actually contained abyssal meat and ingredients.
Hence, most of the customers here were martial artists and rich people.
Even though Su Xiaotuan was not poor, she would only dare to eat in this kind of restaurant a few times a year at most.
When the three people walked in, many other people looked over. When they saw an old man leading two young and beautiful girls into a fancy restaurant like this, they just shook their heads and sighed secretly, "The society nowadays is so 'spicy'."
Yang Song's ears twitched oddly.
A waiter came to greet them and the three chose a table of four.
Hu Feifei smiled generously and said that she would treat the two. Yang Song refused it but since this "Ting Meimei" insisted on it, he nodded helplessly and ordered a bunch of dishes.
Su Xiaotuan was not a martial artist, so she couldn't possibly consume food that contained heavy abyssal energy such as meat. Hence, she only ordered a few foods that had abyssal ingredients.
The efficiency and speed of this restaurant were quite satisfying. Before long, all the dishes arrived.
The three started eating and chatting at the same time.
"Meimei, where do you live?" Yang Song picked a piece of fragrant abyssal meat and put it in his mouth, chewing contentedly.
"I live in the Hundred Leaves Community Villa. Does Elder Yang want to visit me?" Hu Feifei asked with a blush.
Yang Song shook his head and chuckled, "This old man just asks casually."
Su Xiaotuan put down the glass of water and said suddenly, "Actually, I also live in that community. What is sister Ting's villa number?"
Hu Feifei was surprised, "What? You live there too? I live in villa no. 36, what is sister Xiaotuan's villa number?"
"My villa is not far from yours, it's villa no. 45. Our villas are surprisingly quite close to each other, however, I seem to have never seen you before. Did you just move in? I have a few acquaintances who live near your villa," Su Xiaotuan raised her brows and said.
"That's right. I actually moved in not long ago. I originally lived in Azure Lake City."
With this, Hu Feifei and Su Xiaotuan suddenly became quite close to each other. The wariness that silently lay in Su Xiaotuan's heart before quietly decreased.
Yang Song watched the two girls getting along with each other, however, he did not forget to wolf down his food at all.
Not long after, the meals were finished and bill was paid.
Su Xiaotuan felt quite a chill to have eaten such a set of expensive meals for just dinner.
It was already 9 pm when they came out of the restaurant. Yang Song hopped on his hoverboard and the two girls called a taxi, and the three parted ways after a few words.
Looking at the leaving taxi, Yang Song narrowed his eyes slightly before he speeded up and went in the direction of his home.
Unknown to Yang Song, two people in black were trailing him along the way. The two of them held a long blade each.
Soon, Yang Song came past the silent Rivulet Park where light poles were scarce. The river near the park reflected the great silver full moon and two active blades beautifully.
The two devil-masked killers in black looked at each other slightly and nodded. They instantly kicked the ground silently and dashed towards Yang Song's back.
The two killers became two blurry shadows. The two blurry shadows directed the two cold edges of blades that reflected the silver light of the moon at the slow-paced Yang Song.
Seeing that Yang Song didn't mean to speed up or even notice them, the two killers became excited instantly. If this mission was succeeded, they would receive a heavy reward.
However, just as their blades were half a meter away from Yang Song's back, two people in ordinary clothes and wearing strange-looking gloves popped out of nowhere and blocked their attacks easily.
As if he had just noticed this, Yang Song stopped moving forward after he was a few meters from the four people.
Yang Song turned around slowly and looked at them with interest.
Among the four, two of them were bodyguards that his daughter-in-law, Gong Xueqing, ordered to follow him all the time and protect him secretly.
The other two wore in black outfits and devil masks. The devil mask had two white and vicious fangs that protruded out.
Both killers had the same outfits and the same battle techniques. They should come from the same organization.
The two killers were both 6th Tier Warrior martial artists. Their strength was really not to be looked down upon, and coupled with their killer moves that directed at vital points every time, each attack and thrust from them were extremely fatal.
But Yang Song was not worried about unexpected accident the slightest.
First of all, he himself was a 4th stage Foundation Building cultivator. His strength alone was enough to squeeze these two killers, who were no different from ants, to death.
Second, the strength of the two secret bodyguards was more than the look. These two bodyguards were 7th Tier Warrior martial artists and were quite young, from their appearances, they seemed to only be in their late twenties. But since they were martial artists, they should be older than that.
Perhaps because they wanted to capture the two killers instead of killing them, they deliberately lowered their strength and wanted to take the killers by surprise.
"Clang, clang…"
Two blades and two pairs of metal gloves clashed against with each other and created orange sparks as well as clanging sound from time to time.
From Yang Song's observation, the battle would end soon. The two bodyguards seemed to be backing down, but they were actually trying to get familiar with the moves of the two killers and trying to catch their blind spots.
The killers seemed to only focus on attacking and killing the two bodyguards as fast as possible. Fearing that Yang Song might run away, they secretly looked at each other and nodded, as if they were preparing use their trump cards.
But in the fraction that the two were making signals with each other, the two bodyguards suddenly exerted their power to the fullest and kicked the ground hard.
"Crack, crack…"
The concrete cracked terribly and the two bodyguards flew over like a bullet. They took the chance to punch the blades away strongly.
"Clang!"
The powerful vibration was unbearable for the two killers. Their blades cracked slightly before they flew out of their hands uncontrollably.
Feeling the abnormal increase of strength of their opponents suddenly, the two masked killers felt something wrong instantly.
"Not good! Go offline!" One of the killers shouted loudly.
The word "go offline" at this moment seemed to represent the word "commit suicide". The two killers were about to break something that was put in beforehand in their mouths.
However, before they could do so, they suddenly found that their mouths couldn't move, no, to be more precise, except for their pupils, their entire head couldn't move at all.
A tingling sensation was felt in their side necks. They were about to reach out their hands to quickly take away the object their stuck their side necks, but their actions were too untimely.
The two bodyguards took the opportunity to hit their necks weightily, making them faint.
For a second, the two bodyguards thought they had seen two thin silver needles in the side necks of the two killers, but after they blinked slightly, the needles disappeared.
Five meters away, Yang Song came stopped standing as a bystander as he came over.
"Take out the poisonous marbles from their mouths," Yang Song instructed the two.
The two nodded and took out two transparent marbles the size smaller than a tooth that contained green liquid cautiously.
It was no secret that most assassins stored strong poisonous things in their mouths all the time.
Yang Song said, "Give them to me."
The two bodyguards were taken aback slightly, wondering why Patriarch Yang wanted this poisonous thing. But they didn't question him, they gave the poisonous marbles to Yang Song silently.
Yang Song took out a pair of gloves out of nowhere and wore them before he took the poisonous marbles.
He then covered the marbles by clutching his palm softly and put his hand in his pocket. After that, he silently stored them in his storage space.
"Patriarch, these two should be from Papa Devil Organization. I've seen them a few times in the past," one of the bodyguards said.
"I see. But let's not talk here, bring them to this old man's house," Yang Song nodded and said quickly before he continued to ride his hoverboard in the direction of his house.
Report chapter
Fortunately, it was nighttime and there weren't many people outside, so no third party witnessed the incident earlier.
After a while, Yang Song and the two bodyguards carrying the two assassins arrived Yang Song's home.
Yang Song instructed the bodyguards to put the two assassins on the chairs and tie them with a sturdy chain in a basement room different from the usual secret room. After that, the two assassins' strength were sealed by the two bodyguards, by messing with their acupoints.
Over ten minutes later, inside the basement.
Splash…
Two buckets of water were poured on the two unconscious assassins.
At the moment, their devil masks were already taken away, revealing their real faces.
The two guys were surprisingly in their twenties and they were twin. The one on the right had left ear missing, and the one on the left had the right ear missing. The two complemented each other greatly.
They didn't wake up immediately after having two buckets of water splashed, but a few minutes later, their eyes opened groggily and they revealed a puzzled expression.
Yang Song was standing in front of them and watching them calmly.
A few seconds later, the two twin killers were wide awake. They looked at Yang Song in shock, "Y-you…"
"Who sent you?" Yang Song did not want to talk nonsense. He asked them directly.
The two guys revealed a nasty expression instantly, "There's no way that we would tell you!"
Yang Song chuckled silently, "This old man likes tough young people like you." Then, Yang Song signaled the two bodyguards with his eyes.
The two bodyguards nodded and picked up two bottles of light yellow liquid. As soon as the lids of the bottles were taken away, the two killers were stunned.
"G-gasoline? W-what do you want to do to us?"
Yang Song didn't answer, he just let the two bodyguards pour the gasoline into the two guys' mouths.
The two killers struggled frantically, trying hard not to gulp the gasoline. But at this moment, they were no different from ordinary people, how could they win the two bodyguards?
Half a bottle of gasoline was poured into their stomach.
The bodyguards stopped their actions and looked at Yang Song, waiting for his order.
Yang Song put his hand into his pocket and took out a box of matches.
Seeing this, the two killers immediately understood Yang Song's intention. He wanted to kill them in the cruelest way!
Fear instantly bloomed in their hearts, the two of them didn't want to die in such a cruel way. They immediately pleaded, "S-sir, please spare us! We will tell you! We will tell you everything you want to know!!!"
Yang Song smiled and proceeded to take out a cigarette, then he lighted the match. He let the match burn for a while before he brought it up to the top of the cigarette, and sucked the smoke in as if he was sucking a milkshake through a straw.
"What a nostalgic feeling," Yang Song then threw the cigarette to the ground and pinched it off with his shoe.
"Tell this old man, who sent you?" Yang Song asked casually.
The two scared guys didn't care about the bitter and burning taste in their mouth, they didn't dare to delay as they answered hurriedly, "Papa Devil Organization sent us! They sent us to… kill you!"
"Tell me about the one who hired you," Yang Song narrowed his eyes.
"We also don't know about the employer, the Devil Master ordered us directly."
"Devil Master? Is it the leader of your organization?" Yang Song heard this name for the first time, but he could guess it by the name.
"That's right," the twin nodded their head quickly.
Yang Song stayed silent for a while before he continued, "What else do you know?"
"That's all we know about."
"That's all you know about?"
"Yes!"
"I see."
Then Yang Song lighted up the match again.
The two killers sweated profusely as they said in a hurry, "W-wait, wait! That's not all, we know about something which is useful to you!"
The fire on the matchstick went off with a "poof" magically.
No way, gasoline was just too sensitive to fire. Even though the two guys were a distance away from Yang Song, they were still very frightened.
"We actually accidentally heard the Devil Master said the name "Li Wanjing" when we entered our boss' room."
"Li Wanjing? Founder of Azure Silk Pharmaceutical?" Yang Song knew this person. He was the president of a giant pharmaceutical company. In Yang Song's impression, he had never had any interaction with this person at all, so how could he offend him?
But since the other party was a big boss in pills and medicines industry, the same as Yang Song, Yang Song could more or less guess that the other party wanted to eliminate him, a rising star.
The popularity of Great Energy Pill was just too great. Now, it had already spread in the entire Tong City. All the martial artists knew Great Energy Pills. In a circle of friends, if anyone didn't know the Great Energy Pill, then he would be kicked out and be called "country bumpkin".
As long as you have a Great Energy Pill, you would be the center of attention everywhere.
To pick up a chick, you also need to use the temptation of the Great Energy Pill to succeed.
In just a few days, the might of the Great Energy Pill skyrocketed greatly. Yang Song became the rising star in Tong City. At this moment, agents from Martial City came to Tong City every now and then to pick up the Great Energy Pills to sell.
In just a few days, Yang Song gathered hundreds of millions of profits.
So who wouldn't envy him? Who wouldn't want to eliminate him?
Even those giant companies couldn't sit still. That Azure Silk company was an example. They wanted to cut Great Energy Pharmaceutical's head while it was in the cradle.
Yang Song had expected that enemies would emerge and would use some means to play against him. But he didn't expect that this Azure Silk Pharmaceutical to use such a direct pattern.
"This information is indeed very useful to this old man, so for your reward…" Yang Song smiled and looked at the two bodyguards.
The two killers heaved a sigh of relief and thought that Yang Song decided to release. However, before they could say anything, they suddenly felt a tremendous pain in their neck before their consciousness melted away.
Their eyes were still open while their heads were forcefully turned 360 degrees by the two bodyguards.
"Dispose of these two and inform Haodong of what happened today," Yang Song said before he walked out of the room.
Yang Song trusted the two bodyguards because he had already observed them with the Eyes of Insight. They were none other than Yang Haodong's loyal subordinates.
To make it more convenient in protecting Yang Song, Yang Haodong allowed all the older members of the Yang Family to contact them. This was why Gong Xueqing could contact them.
…
Martial City, in a luxurious mansion.
At this moment, two old men were playing chess with each other.
"Actually, brother Li, I'm not so optimistic about this method. I believe that that old man won't go outside without protection," an old man with gray hair and a retro outfit dropped a black chess piece and said.
"Brother Wu doesn't have to worry about it. Even if it doesn't succeed this time, there are still other times. If worse comes to worst, then I will hire the Devil Master directly. You have rescued my life two times, but this is the first time that you came to ask for my help," the other old man said while picking a white chess piece, then he thought for a while before putting it down on the chessboard lightly.
Yes, the old man with the surname was Wu was actually Wu Dahai, the old patriarch of the Wu Family, or the dead Wu Yonggui's father.
And the other party was Li Wanjing, the founder of Azure Silk Pharmaceutical.
It turned out that Wu Dahai came to ask Li Wanjing for help. And it just so happened that Li Wanjing wanted to slay Great Energy Pharmaceutical off. Therefore, Li Wanjing agreed to help Wu Dahai without any hesitation.
Wu Dahai tried to find the person who killed his descendants for a long time, but he couldn't find any trace. Finally, he had chosen to vent his anger and grievance on Yang Song.
He initially wanted to hire those assassins by himself. But the cost was too high. He currently didn't have that much money to play. Therefore, he had decided to come to Li Wanjing, a person whose life had been rescued by him two times inexplicably.
The first time was when he battled in the abyss a few decades ago, and the second time was when Li Wanjing was chased by his enemies eleven years ago.
Over the years, Wu Dahai didn't want to use Li Wanjing's help. He wanted to preserve such a precious debt that Li Wanjing owed him as much as possible. Now, it was time to use this debt to his advantage.
Bang, bang…
At this moment, there was a knock outside the room. The two old men stopped their actions and Li Wanjing shouted softly, "Come in."
A man in a black suit and a red left eyepatch opened the door and walked in silently. Without any nonsense, he said, "The mission failed."
This answer was within Wu Dahai and Li Wanjing's expectations, so they weren't surprised the slightest. This just gave them further understanding about Yang Song.
"It seems there are 7th Tier or possibly 8th Tier Warrior martial artists protecting. But I think it's nothing more than that. However, it's estimated that his son, Yang Haodong, a 5th Tier Master, will become vigilant and try to protect his father as much as possible," Li Wanjing picked up a teacup and took a sip of tea gently.
"Then what should we do?" Wu Dahai sighed and asked.
"No worries. It is rumored that the Devil Master is a 6th Tier Master himself, and he also has a few other Masters under him. What I, Li Wanjing, don't lack the most is money. Brother Wu doesn't have to worry that much. As long as I can kill them and snatch the Great Energy Pill recipe, every action is worth it," Li Wanjing chuckled and said with a gleam.
Report chapter
From Tong City to Martial City, it needed at least almost two hours if gone by car.
At this moment, it was around 10 pm, and Yang Haodong was approaching Martial City with his plain-looking car.
Tonight, he was going to Martial City to find that Liu Fei to avenge his father. The curse that Liu Fei made online was enough to arouse the impulsive Yang Haodong to take action personally.
Among the three siblings, Yang Haodong seemed the most rational from his appearance. However, he was the most impulsive one among the three instead.
About two hours ago, through his connection, he found the location of that Liu Fei guy.
…
Grand Garden could be regarded as a very good villa area in Martial City. The most important thing was that it was quiet in the middle of the noisy city. It was not in a remote place, but the environment was very good, and it was very convenient to go out.
At the present time, in villa no. 18.
Liu Fei was sitting in front of his laptop in the bedroom of the first floor dejectedly.
Several hours ago, he got a call from the Nation Writers Association, saying that his name was asked to be deleted by the association, and his position as the chairman of Martial City Writers Association had also been stripped off.
Now, he was only a middle-aged writer without any position. He had not told this news to Wu Dahai yet. Not that he didn't want to, but he simply didn't know how to tell the other party.
He glanced at the half-finished glass of red wine before proceeding to drink it in one gulp. He just praised himself for being lucky not long ago, but who knew that his unlucky day would come so soon after?
"Damn it! The reason for doing this to me is because I offended someone I shouldn't have offended? But who did I offend?"
It was not that Liu Fei had never offended anyone, it was just that the number of people he had offended was countless. Both people in real life and on the internet, the number of people he had cursed was simply incomprehensibly numerous.
However, although he liked to scold people, all his targets were all the small shrimps or big crabs. Recently, the one he had scolded the most was only…
"Could it be the Yang Family? No, that's impossible. Even if the Yang Family's power is not bad in Tong City, it is basically incomparable outside the Tong City. What's more, how could a small Yang Family have connection with the mighty National Writers Association? Yang Haodong can only dominate the small Tong City…"
"There is a possibility, but it's very unlikely. But how come Secretary Yi's phone is full at such a critical situation?"
Liu Fei was racking his brain, trying to find out who he had offended and had a very good identity.
And as soon as he thought of Yi Renhei, he felt irritable instantly. That guy's phone was unable to connect for several hours now. He had just sent the Abyssal Diamond Bamboo over.
"Does that guy want to ditch me? Damn!"
Liu Fei was sighing in frustration from time to time. Just as he was about to pour wine into the wineglass, the light in his room suddenly went off, the air conditioner also turned off.
Most parts of the room became dark, except for the area around the laptop and the window.
"What's happening?" Liu Fei got up from his seat and walked to the window to see if other villas were having the same situation as his.
When he looked out, he saw that other villas all had bright light lit up.
"What's the situation? Is there something wrong with my house?" Liu Fei frowned.
He then walked back to the table and was about to make a call to the front office of Grand Garden and ask the technicians to come here and check the situation.
"Creak…"
But before he could even touch his phone, the sound of the door opening resounded in his room.
"Who?" Liu Fei jumped in fright. His hands trembled and he picked up his phone, preparing to call the police.
However, a small object dashed over out of nowhere and hit his wrist, making his hand shook and unable to hold the phone. Liu Fei instantly changed his hand, but another small flew over again and struck his writer, rendering his hand useless temporarily.
Liu Fei was scared and tried to step back with his trembling legs.
"W-who are you? Do… do you know who I am? W-what do you want to do?" Liu Fei asked several stuttering questions in a row.
As Liu Fei tried to take a few steps back, the other party also took a few steps forward. Soon, the intruder came near the window.
Via the moonlight, the appearance of the intruder was revealed in Liu Fei's eyes.
He was wearing a black outfit and a scary-looking white mask. His two hands were concealed in white gloves.
At this moment, the intruder spoke, "Liu Fei, you are too wicked. This deity has come to ruin your life!"
Liu Fei almost peed his pants as soon as he heard this.
"Y-you, are you someone that I had scolded in the past? S-sir, please spare my life! Don't ruin me! I-I don't want to die. I can give you money, please don't harm me!!!"
Liu Fei's legs went weak and he knelt on the ground. Perhaps he was too frightened, he didn't even notice the indistinct and warm liquid that dripped through his pants.
The intruder just shook his head and continued to walk over to Liu Fei.
Liu Fei wanted to back away, but he realized he did not have any strength at all.
When the scary intruder arrived in front of him, Liu Fei couldn't hold it anymore, and he screamed, "Kyaa~"
Whoosh!
But the scream was abolished by the heavy blow in the neck from the intruder, making Liu Fei faint.
After making sure that Liu Fei had fainted for real, the white-masked man left the room.
A minute later, the light was turned back on, and the white-masked intruder came back to the room.
Normally, there wouldn't be a security camera inside the bedroom, but the white-masked man still looked around the room carefully to check it.
After confirming that there was no security camera or hidden camera, the man walked to Liu Fei's laptop and sat.
He reconnected the Wi-Fi and started browsing this laptop, trying to find useful materials.
Not long after, he accidentally found some secret videos that were hidden in a plain folder. After clicking the play button, the man was shocked to see the content inside.
In the video, Liu Fei could be seen holding a black leather whip and threatening a black-masked woman to stripe. He was very sure that the one talking was Liu Fei.
The man couldn't bear to watch further as he closed the video and went to inspect other videos.
The content in most of the videos was the same, except that the victim was different each time.
Fortunately, in a video, Liu Fei accidentally exposed his face for several seconds.
The man took out a USB flash drive copied all the videos. Then continued to check Liu Fei's social media accounts, especially his chats.
In the hidden archive chats, the man spotted only one chat, and it was a chat with Wu Dahai. The two were talking about the plans to defeat Yang Song and the rewards and so on. There were both text messages and voice messages. Overall, the content was quite corrupted.
The man quickly recorded all the content of the chat and copied it to the USB flash drive.
…
After dozens of minutes, Liu Fei opened his eyes in a daze. Then as if he thought of something, he got up from the ground immediately and looked around the room.
"Was it a dream?"
Everything around the room was normal except for an unbearable scent and the slight pain in his neck.
Liu Fei then hurriedly went to check his treasures in the extremely durable safe box, and found that they were still there. Nothing was missing.
Liu Fei breathed out a sigh of relief albeit some linger fear still haunted around. It was fortunate that after he opened his eyes, he didn't find himself in front of the Yama King, but in his room.
"Then what did he really do to me?"
After pondering for a while more, Liu Fei was shocked and he suddenly touched his butt. Then he relaxed again. He didn't feel any soreness, indicating that his 'freshness' was still there.
"But wait, why are pants wet?" As soon as he noticed this, a bang of disgusting smell hit his nose out of blue.
Looking back at the area where he fainted earlier, he found that some inconspicuous light-yellow liquid still remained. The smell probably came from there.
However, Liu Fei didn't know that at this time, a plain car just galloped away from the Grand Garden villa area, heading back to Tong City. The driver inside this plain car was holding a small USB flash drive that contained a big secret of him.
Liu Fei didn't know that his true unlucky moment had yet to come.
Report chapter
The next day, Yang Family courtyard.
In the living room, Yang Haodong was sitting in front of Yang Song, discussing the incident that had happened yesterday.
"Father, should I call more people to protect you? I'm afraid that the Papa Devil Organization will send stronger assassins," after staying silent for a while, Yang Haodong proposed.
As someone who worked for the government, Yang Haodong had access to a lot of secret information.
The Papa Devil Organization was a killer organization that appeared sixty years ago. This organization's location was completely undetectable. Its members were all very well trained and ruthless to both the targets and themselves.
The most terrifying thing about this organization was that the founder of this illegal organization was rumored to be a lightning ability user.
Sixty years ago, when this organization was just formed, the most active assassin was the Devil Founder. Every target would have their body charred and the authority confirmed that it was caused by lightning. This was why everyone suspected that the Devil Founder was an ability user.
Of course, this piece of information was only known to a small upper circle of people.
Yang Song was not nervous about this, he took a light sip of tea and said calmly, "That would be the best. Also, help me notify all the members to be extra careful. If they can't come to me, they will definitely go to other members of our family."
"I also have this thought. It's just a pity that we don't have any evidence showing that Li Wanjing is planning to harm us," Yang Haodong clenched his fist and felt irritated. "It's unfortunate that our family doesn't have a dark force for us to use. Otherwise, we can confront the Li Family directly."
"Do you know about this Papa Devil Organization clearly?" Yang Song asked.
"Not clearly, I only know about some insider information which I just inquired from my friends," Yang Haodong sipped the tea a little to moisturize his throat before he continued, "the founder of this organization, the Devil Founder, is said to be a lightning ability user. But the current leader, the Devil Master is rumored to be a 6th Tier Master. Currently, there are several Master martial artists under them."
"Is the Devil Founder still alive?" Yang Song's brows furrowed.
Yang Haodong put the teacup down and said, "No one knows about this. But most people believe that he has already died. It's already been sixty years. When this organization was formed sixty years ago, the Devil Founder was not young at all."
Yang Song fell into silence with a heavy heart. This hitman organization was quite strong. They actually had Master martial artists under them, even the leader was a 6th Tier Master. What's more, the founder of this organization was an ability user at that.
If that Li Wanjing had enough money to hire those Master killers, then it would very tricky. Unless Yang Song called some Master martial artists that he had given help in the past to help him.
If Yang Song went all out, he was confident to fight with a 6th Tier Master. But the problem was that he didn't want to expose his true strength to everyone.
Yang Song sighed, closed his eyes, and the room was quiet for a while.
But not long after, he opened his eyes and asked irrelevant questions instead, "Right, how is your novel going now? And have you gone to inspect the new company yet?"
Yang Haodong just promptly answered, "A lot more readers have come. I haven't gone to take a look at the new company yet. Speaking of which, father, do you have more outline of Battle Through the Paradise?"
Yang Song then got up and walked to his bedroom. A minute later, he came back and gave Yang Haodong a USB flash drive. "All the outlines are in here. Haodong, I just thought of a plan. How about I leave here and go to hide in another place?"
Yang Haodong's eyes lit up, "This is feasible. But where will you go to?"
Yang Song's eyes rolled and he said without hesitation, "White Dragon Mountain."
"White Dragon Mountain? If you go to hide there, then what about your sleeping and meals? How…"
Before Yang Haodong could finish, Yang Song interrupted him, "You don't have to worry. This old man had suffered and done many works when he was young. What kind of place has this old man never slept in? Also, this old man is a martial artist now, not an ordinary person."
Yang Song also didn't forget to remind him, "You don't need to prepare any car at all. This old man has his own plan for going to the White Dragon Mountain. Inform those bodyguards not to follow me too."
"Okay, father," Yang Haodong could only compromise his father.
After that, he left some instructions to several bodyguards around the courtyard before leaving.
After Yang Song closed the door, he went to the secret room.
Actually, Yang Song could choose to hide in the secret room when the assassins came. But if he hid here, how could he go out to help battle against the assassin?
Hence, Yang Song chose to leave the house and go to the White Dragon Mountain instead. In fact, this was half true half false. He would indeed go to White Dragon Mountain, but he would come back in disguise and battle against the assassins.
Yang Song called the hardworking Xiao Laoxu over and instructed him to go outside to play for a while.
The little guy was immediately overjoyed and left right away through the hole.
Then, Yang Song called out the Undead Steel Scavenger and didn't know what to do with him. After a while of ponderation, he decided to leave him in this secret room alone. He also left a lot of foods enough for him to eat for a week.
Hearing that Yang Song was about to leave for a while, the Undead Steel Scavenger was happy. It didn't have to pluck its scales for this old devil for a few days. The period of a few days was like a holiday for it.
After this, Yang Song left the Yang Family courtyard leisurely. Coming outside, Yang Song had a feeling that someone was staring at him intensely. If he didn't guess wrong, that should be the spy responsible for staring at the Yang Family's movement, or especially Yang Song's, sent by that organization.
Yang Song deliberately acted as if he didn't notice anything. He just walked leisurely in the direction of the most famous market – Yellow Carp Market.
The reason why he went there was because he wanted to get lost from that scout. Yes, Yellow Carp Market had densely packed people all the time.
Seeing that Yang Song had gone into this densely packed place, the scout instantly knew that this old man had found him out. But the scout dressed as an ordinary person just smiled slightly.
As a martial artist, his eyesight and his ability to squeeze in the crowd was better than anyone else. In other words, he could still be like a fish in water. How could a trick that simple work on him?
However, the scout still increased his speed, trying to execute a safety measure instead of doing his work casually.
Suddenly, the scout found that Yang Song had stopped at some point and turned his head to look at him, then, he actually revealed a smile as if to greet him.
"Not good!" When this alert appeared in the scout's mind, Yang Song had already increased his speed abnormally and went through the crowd so smoothly.
The scout then instantly used his trump card, that was to push away people to the side and ran directly.
A minute later, he spotted Yang Song's figure in front of a tall person.
The scout smiled and speeded up further. When he arrived ten meters behind the tall person, he said in his heart, "Caught you!"
However, when he really got right behind that tall person and pushed the tall person away, he was stunned.
Because the person in front of the tall person somehow turned out to be a 10-year-old boy with a lollipop instead.
The scout immediately jumped on a table that was put near him and tried to observe the crowd around him, trying to spot Yang Song. However, no figure similar to Yang Song appeared in his sight at all.
"Damn it!" The scout cursed in his heart before he took out his phone and sent out a message, "The target disappeared, but he should still be in the area. Send people to all the entrance and exit of the Yellow Carp Market right away!"
There were his colleagues nearby and he estimated that it would take a few minutes to arrive. From his position to the nearest exit of the Yellow Carp Market, he would need more than ten minutes. The Yellow Carp Market was just that big.
However, he didn't notice that the 10-year-old boy with a lollipop earlier revealed a grin while licking the lollipop. After watching the scout for a while, the boy walked away leisurely as if he had never owed anyone a dollar.
Report chapter
Yang Song, in the form of a 10-year-old boy, walked away without a care. However, he did not plan to use this appearance for long. After making sure that there were no surveillance cameras around, he changed his appearance continuously.
Finally, Yang Song left the Yellow Carp Market in the form of an ordinary teenager.
…
White Dragon Mountain was actually a range of mountains of historical and cultural significance located south of Tong City. This mountain was only about two hundred meters high, but the small mountain rages that grouped up together revealed the shape of a dragon. Its name came from this.
This mountain was only over a twenty-minute drive from Yang Song's house to the south. This was why Yang Song chose to go here.
However, Yang Song's main purpose for going there was to explore a suitable place for cultivation.
From what it was stated in the Immortal Cultivation Secret Manual, places with a lot of trees generally had a large amount of Spiritual Energy or in other words, psionic particles. And the Spiritual Energy in those kinds of places.
Not long after, Yang Song got off the taxi and came to the bottom of the mountain.
Right at the official entrance of the mountain, there was a tall gate and stairs that led to the top of the mountain.
There were not many tourists today as it was too hot. Therefore, it was much more convenient for Yang Song to do things.
After looking left and right to make sure that no one was paying attention to him, Yang Song slapped the ground with his feet lightly and flew into the dense forest on the left.
The trees here were quite old. The tallest one was tens of meters high and a few hundred years old.
Yang Song hopped onto the branches of trees and used his light body to make his way further upwards.
As Yang Song went deeper and deeper into the mountain, some wild animals gradually appeared, and a kind of refreshing feeling started to come into being.
Before long, Yang Song came to a rough cave that had dense Spiritual Energy ten meters away from him. As Yang Song was about to advance, his phone rang and it was Yang Haodong who was calling.
"What is it?" After pressing the answer button, Yang Song asked directly.
"Father, where are you right now?" Yang Haodong asked anxiously.
"White Dragon Mountain, what's the matter?"
Yang Haodong heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Just now, I caught three scouts of the Papa Devil Organization, but before I could ask them anything, they committed suicide right away."
"You don't have to worry. This old man is safe and sound," Yang Song reassured him. "You don't have to come to me. This old man has already found a place to stay. When things there are over, just inform this old man."
"Understood," Yang Haodong then thought of a temple on top of the main peak of the White Dragon Mountain.
If other people were near Yang Song, they would be stunned for sure. Because Yang Song clearly had an appearance of a teenager, but his voice sounded opposite of his age as if he was a sixty or seventy-year-old man instead.
This was simple. Yang Song used the God-level Disguise Technique. He could basically disguise any part of his body. Be it his voice, his hand, his strand of hair, the toes of his feet, and so on.
Yang Song shifted his sight to the vicinity of the cave and found that there were no animals around at all. Not even the sound of cicada could be heard.
This phenomenon was very strange.
Since this place had a lot of Spiritual Energy, even though animals couldn't see it with their naked eyes, they could still sense it and they would gather around here to nurture their own bodies.
But not even a rat was spotted around here.
Yang Song focused his gaze above the cave that located ten meters away from him and found that Spiritual Energy actually formed an uneven line and penetrated the cave through the many holes around the cave.
"Some unusual thing must be in this cave!" Yang Song was very sure about this. The Spiritual Energy must be controlled by something.
After pondering for a while more, Yang Song took out a sword before he jumped down and decided to enter the cave.
The entrance of the cave was only about a meter wide and over a meter tall. With such a narrow entrance, it was natural that not much sunlight could go in.
After Yang Song went inside, what greeted him was a layer of thin grass and a strange scent. That scent was not exactly pleasant, nor was it exactly unpleasant to the nose. It was basically a kind of subtle scent.
With Yang Song's current cultivation base, in such a dark place, he did not need to use a flashlight at all. He could see everything around him without any obstacles.
As Yang Song went further and further inside, he finally saw the uneven line of the Spiritual Energy.
At this time, a sight that appeared in front of Yang Song made Yang Song stunned for a while.
The whole area was no longer narrow, but very wide like that of a very spacious palace with bumpy, rocky, and dangerous-looking stalagmites.
This how-many-year-old cave was no longer completely dark but was sparkling with thousands of blue-green lights, like the giant jewelry chest of some ancient sea princess.
While the cave might appear to be dangling with precious gems, when Yang Song looked closely, the truth was a little more down-to-earth.
"Tsk, this old man thought he was going to hit it big!" Yang Song shook his head and frowned.
The cerulean glow was actually produced by a kind of fungus, which emit light from organs in its tail.
Those things were very sticky but very frail as well. With just a light touch of Yang Song's sword, that thing was stuck to his sword like a super-glue, but a pity that when Yang Song retracted his sword back, its body was torn apart miserably.
Inside this particular place, the most eye-catching thing was not those bright insects, but the dark lake that could reflect the light of those insects like a clear mirror instead. If gazed from afar, it was no different from a dark starry sky with many bright and small stars.
And the line of Spiritual Energy was also focused on here as well.
Yang Song glanced at the center of the lake. The Spiritual Energy was going down under the lake.
He narrowed his eyes and glanced at a stone near his foot before kicking it down.
Plop…
The stone touched the surface of the lake and made a sound. Ripples formed and spread for a while, but the lake was still very calm.
However, this calmness made Yang Song more sure that there must be something down there. With such a large amount of Spiritual Energy, there was no way that there was no life there. Just those glowworms were enough to prove this.
"Let's throw something bigger in," Yang Song and picked up a stone the size of a basketball personally this time and threw it into the lake with a bit of exertion of his strength.
Sure enough, this time, it really worked.
Numerous bubbles appeared in the middle of the lake before a rumbling sound broke through the calm atmosphere of the cave.
Various parts of bones identical to human bones jumped out of the water slightly before they fell back into the lake. A large black serpent with two blue horns got up violently and opened its huge jaw. Its big and sinister pupils glowed in the dark and glared at Yang Song with excitement as if to take Yang Song as its new prey.
"Roar…"
Through his Eyes of Insight, Yang Song got the information about the serpent.
Species: Blue-Horned Serpent (spirit beast)
Combat Power: Tier 3 General
Talents: natural predator (70), cold venom (20), wisdom (40), comprehension (30)
New Note: Spirit beast refers to a beast that evolved from natural animals and was born outside the abyss.
There were four talents in total. But what surprised Yang Song was the new note. In other words, this serpent was originally a snake, but it evolved due to the special circumstance of this place?
Yang Song was sure that this serpent didn't know how to cultivate, but there was something helping it. Because the Spiritual Energy still directed to the center of the lake, it didn't penetrate the body of the serpent at all.
But Yang Song put that aside for now, his current task was to kill this serpent.
"Little serpent, please be this old man's guest," Yang Song revealed a smile before he stomped on the ground and jumped towards the serpent.
"Roar!"
In response to Yang Song, the Blue-Horned Serpent roared again and used its head to greet Yang Song's sword.
The sword didn't hit the head directly but hit the blue horn instead.
"Clang!"
Unexpectedly, its horn could withstand the sharp sword of Yang Song. But it was not a big problem, because Yang Song had not used his full strength yet. He had only wanted to test this thing a little.
Yang Song went back to his original place; the giant serpent didn't allow him to rest. It followed him instantly, opening its large mouth, revealing its sharp fangs, and intending to swallow Yang Song alive.
Yang Song dodged to the left and increased his strength to chop at the horn of the serpent.
"Clank!"
It created a sound similar to earlier, but this time, Yang Song's sword almost cut off the entire horn.
"Roar…"
Blue liquid poured out of the gap of the horn and the serpent roared in pain. Yang Song took this opportunity to jump again and cut off the horn completely this time.
The blue horn fell into Yang Song's hand, but while still in midair, Yang Song took the chance to cut the other blue horn with all his might.
"Roar…"
The serpent roared in extreme pain once again. The blue liquid that seemed to be the blood of the serpent oozed out madly and poured all over its body.
The serpent realized that it had met danger this time, and prepared to plunge back into the lake, planning to escape for its life.
But how could Yang Song allow this to happen?
This time, after Yang Song fell back to the ground, he jumped up again instantly and aimed at the neck of the serpent directly.
With his full exertion of strength, the sharp sword met with the black scale of the serpent in its neck.
"Puff…"
As if a big knife cutting a frail fruit, the smooth line appeared from one side to the other without any obstacles.
The head of the serpent fell into the lake, making a noise. The blue blood squirted out of the giant wound madly and dyed the lake blue.
The big corpse then twitched for a few seconds before it also fell into the lake, splashing water around.
Report chapter
As soon as Yang Song saw the Blue-Horned Serpent, the doubts he had had previously were instantly solved.
The reason why there were no animals in the vicinity of this cave was naturally because of this unusually big predator and this predator also claimed its territory. Hence, no animals wanted to mess around here and lose their lives by the way.
And looking at the human bones, it also showed why this place was not known to the public. There were people who had found this place in this past, but they were all killed by the Blue-Horned Serpent.
Yang Song glanced at his trophies – the horns of the serpent. From the battle earlier, Yang Song had already known its durability.
It was a pity that Yang Song's storage space was already occupied by many things, hence, he could only store the head of the serpent and a part of its body. But he also didn't forget to peel all the scales of the serpent and take its important organs.
The process took a little while since it was quite big, however, it was also not difficult with the sharpness of the sword and his formidable strength.
Finally, after making sure that he did not miss anything, Yang Song directed his gaze at the center of the lake.
Then, without any hesitation, Yang Song jumped into the lake and dived to the center easily.
This lake was quite shallow, only about five meters deep. At the bottom of the lake, there were many types of bones, from fish bones to animal bones and human bones. Looking at the piles of bones around him, Yang Song sighed. Just how many animals and humans that had fallen here?
In the center, there was a strand of flower that emitted a dim yellow light. The uneven line of Spiritual Energy was exactly being absorbed by this flower constantly.
Through his Eyes of Insight, Yang Song immediately got the information about this flower.
Species: Spiritual Energy Binding Flower
Grade: Spirit
Description: An extremely rare type of flower that absorbs the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth and stores it in its body. Cultivators can use it in replacement of Spirit Stones.
"It turns out that the serpent stays here because of this thing."
After seeing this information, Yang Song's eyes lit up. With this magical flower, he could cultivate in his secret for the time being. When the Spiritual Energy or psionic particles in this flower was exhausted, he would come to this cave to cultivate instead.
Yang Song dug out the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower without delay and store it in his storage space. After that, he went back to the shore and left the lake.
Not long after, Yang Song changed to a new set of clothes and left this cave that had no name.
Yang Song smiled and thought that the trip to the White Dragon Mountain this time was really fruitful.
His next plan was to use another appearance and go back to Yang Haodong to help him defend against the Papa Devil Organization.
…
An hour later, Yang Family courtyard.
Yang Haodong and a few other people were staying in the living room.
At this moment, Yang Haodong's personal subordinate came inside and reported, "Boss, a strange man just came and claimed that he came here to help us at the request of the old patriarch."
"Father asked him to come?" Yang Haodong raised his head then looked at Yang Haonan who had just come earlier. "Well, let him in first."
After a while, a middle-aged person with slightly gray hair walked into the living room. His facial appearance was quite ordinary, but with just a glance, people could instantly tell that he was a martial artist. Because those bulging muscles were a good proof.
Yang Haodong and Yang Haonan got up and looked at the middle-aged man. Then Yang Haodong extended out his hand, intending to shake, but he did not forget to say, "Hello, you are…?"
The middle-aged man didn't have any expression, but he still extended out his hand and shook it with Yang Haodong's hand, "You can call me Blue Sword. Your father, my benefactor, asked me for help."
"I see," Yang Haodong nodded, but he still took out his phone, intending to call his father for confirmation. As soon as the screen of his phone lit up, he saw a message from his father, saying, "Blue Sword".
Then, Blue Sword also said promptly, "You don't need to disturb his rest now. He just told me that he's at the White Dragon Mountain. And rest assured, I am a very trustworthy person."
Seeing his father's message and hearing Blue Sword's calm words, Yang Haodong's doubts were dispelled immediately and he revealed a smile.
"It turns out to be Mr. Blue Sword. Thank you for coming here to help us this time," Yang Haonan came forward and shook his hand with Blue Sword with a smile.
From the appearance of this middle-aged man alone, Yang Haonan was sure that he was a strong Master level martial artist.
Blue Sword glanced at Yang Haodong expressionlessly and said, "Elder Yang has already told me about the necessary information. By the way, do you have weapons? Or do you plan to battle with your bare hands?"
Yang Haodong pointed to a pair of silver gauntlets that were lying on the table near him and said, "I will use those."
"Good, it seems like you have a good defense," Blue Sword nodded and said. Then, he gazed at Yang Haonan.
Yang Haonan immediately said, "I have that blade." Then he pointed towards an exquisite long blade that was leaning against the sofa.
…
Whenever people walked past the Yang Family courtyard, they would look into the courtyard with curious gazes. There were a number of people in black suits and holding weapons in their hands, standing and guarding around the courtyard.
In a blink of an eye, it was already 6 in the evening and darkness began to envelop the city slowly.
When 7 o'clock hit, not far away from the Yang Family courtyard, a black truck with a red container was approaching. The driver and the person in the co-pilot seat were both wearing black devil masks. Behind those devil masks were fierce eyes that made people scared.
With a "squeak", the truck also stopped not far away from the Yang Family courtyard.
The driver and the person in the co-pilot seat immediately got off and went to open the container.
After the doors of the container were opened, a white and cold mist immediately poured out.
Inside the container, there was a black and luxurious seat in the middle, followed by two rows of black seats on each side.
Each seat was occupied by a person with black devil masks. However, three seats near the main seat were settled by three people in black clothes but silver devil masks.
As for the person in the middle, he was wearing a red outfit and a red devil mask.
Everyone inside the container except for the person in red got up and got off the container neatly. Their steps were as light as a feather, without any sound produced, as if they were devil spirits that had no legs.
The two guys who just opened the container grouped up with the twelve people and stood in two lines, waiting for the person in the middle to come out.
The person in red looked at the two red swords beside him and picked them up. Then, he hung them on each side of his waist and walked off the container.
Whoever he walked past, that person would feel a chill behind his back and sweat slightly. That cold murderous intent was really unrivaled by no one else.
Then, the person in red uttered, "Go online."
In response to him, all the people in devil masks broke away from each other and used their techniques one by one to blend in with the dark shadow.
Everything seemed to take a long time, but it actually took place for a moment only.
When the truck had just arrived, the people in the courtyard were already alert. Now, everyone gathered together and prepared to battle.
The atmosphere started to tense up and everyone looked left and right, trying to spot any abnormality.
Right at this moment, a sense of danger appeared in a bodyguard's heart strongly, and he yelled before moving away from his position instantly, "Danger!"
"Bang!"
Then, an air-breaking sound resounded, and a bullet rushed out of nowhere, missing that bodyguard and penetrating the ground.
"Not good, it's a sniper!"
Rustle, rustle…
Then, another foreign sound appeared and several balls identical to smoke bombs rolled over.
Puff, puff, puff…
The smoke exploded out and rushed to the entire courtyard, making it a bit difficult to see.
At this time, a person hopped out of the house and waved a sword with a blue hilt violently a few times.
Gushes of wind were forced to appear and blew away the dense smoke.
"Bang!"
Another sound of opening fire came, the smell of gunpowder appeared. But with the vigilance of everyone, the bullet was dodged successfully.
While everyone including Blue, Yang Haodong, and Yang Haonan were trying to spot the enemies, suddenly, several shadows appeared on the ground.
When everyone looked up, they saw around nine people with black devil masks jumped over with sinister blades in their hands each.
Everyone was not stunned either, they immediately took action by using their respective weapons and skills to battle against the enemies.
Blue Sword immediately spotted a person with a silver devil masked and targeted him without delay.
With little strength, he kicked the group and jumped over to chop him down.
Clang!
The silver-masked killer unsheathed his blade and greeted Blue Sword's sword timely. The sword and the blade met each other and gave birth to orange sparks.
With just this attack alone, the two parties immediately knew each other's strength.
'4th Tier Master!'
'4th Tier Master!'
Both Blue Sword and the silver-masked assassin seemed to be surprised at each other's strength, then both of them became even more vigilant.
After that, the silver-masked assassin launched another attack at Blue Sword hurriedly, as if he wanted to end this battle as fast as possible.
Blue Sword also saw through this, and he also increased his strength.
Clang, clang…
All kinds of noises grouped up together and made the scene chaotic for a while. Each person was facing another person fiercely, making the air tensed.
Yang Haodong and Yang Haonan were also fighting against the two other silver-masked assassins.
Yang Haodong had gone to battle in the abyss for many years before, therefore, each of his blows contained ruthless and explosive power.
The assassin on the other side had been killing people for so many years too, hence, each of his moves was also a killer move.
However, this battle did not last long. Because Yang Haodong was a 5th Tier Master, and the assassin was a 4th Tier Master.
Bang!
Crack…
Yang Haodong punched the blade of the silver-masked person directly, the blade cracked before it crumbled apart. However, the gauntlet-covered fist didn't stop there, after it destroyed the blade, it went straight ahead and hit the chest of the silver-masked assassin.
Puff…
The assassin spurted out blood and fell to the ground. His internal organs were damaged by the powerful punch earlier severely.
But it looked like these assassins did not want Yang Haodong to rest at all. Immediately after that silver-masked assassin was killed, a "bang" was heard and a bullet flew over and rushed past Yang Haodong's cheek.
Blood leaked out of Yang Haodong's cheek slightly. Yang Haodong dodged to the side immediately and wiped the blood off.
Then, he immediately raised his head to find the sniper. According to the trajectory of the bullet and the direction of the wind, Yang Haodong confirmed that the assassin was right in the south.
Because the wind blew from the south to the north, and coupled with the fact that Yang Haodong's face was facing the north earlier, he was very sure about it.
Yang Haodong instantly looked at the dark villa in front of the courtyard and shouted, "The sniper is in the south, be careful everyone!"
Then, Yang Haodong looked at the other silver-masked killer that was fighting against Yang Haonan and was about to go to help.
Then, out of nowhere, a dark shadow rushed to the sky and blocked Yang Haodong's path.
The other party wore a red devil mask and a red outfit. The breath around him was also very cold and unusual as if he had killed hundreds of people and had battled against thousands of enemies in the past.
"The Devil Master!" Yang Haodong instantly guessed the other party's identity.
Bang!
At this time, the silver-masked killer that was fighting against Blue Sword was kicked in the chest suddenly and flew over a few meters away before falling heavily to the ground.
The killer struggled to get up and looked at Blue Sword in disbelief. When the battle had just started, this person seemed to have a bit of difficulty in fighting against him, but gradually, he had found that his flow of attack changed and each of his moves was completely adapted to his own killer move calmly.
Then, just earlier, that person got additional strength out of nowhere and broke through his defense and kicked his chest violently.
This gave him a feeling that the other party was actually concealing his strength and was playing with him.
The strength in the kick just now visibly belonged to a 5th Tier Master!
The killer got clutched his chest and wanted to escape by using the other assassins as his shield. However, his sense of crisis shot up instantly and he hurriedly tried to jump out of this courtyard despite the injury and the pain.
"Not good!"
Whish!
Unfortunately, before he could even make a jumping posture, a whistling sound shot through the air and darted towards him.
A tingling sensation spread from his back to his already-in-pain chest like a shot. As he looked down, he saw a sword dyed red with his blood made a hole out of his chest.
His vision gradually became blurred and his body fell to the ground with a "thud". He died with his eyes still open.
Blue Sword suddenly jumped over and took the sword that stuck the silver-masked killer away. He swung it slightly to get rid of the blood on the sword. Then, his gaze set on the only remaining silver-masked assassin that was fighting with Yang Haonan.
Blue Sword immediately went over to help.
The blue-hilted sword was swung again, and it cut the silver-masked killer right in the back of the neck.
The assassin's action stopped, and he collapsed to the ground, his eyes still opened with confusion as if he didn't know how he died.
Yang Haonan took a quick looked at Blue Sword and said sincerely, "Thank you."
But Blue Sword did not look at Yang Haonan, he had already gone to kill the other assassins.
Other than the silver-masked assassins, the other assassins were naturally very vulnerable to Blue Sword and Yang Haonan.
Soon, all the black-masked assassins were killed, and only the red-masked assassin and the sniper was left.
Bang!
Yang Haodong was kicked by the Devil Master and flew back, hitting the tree in the yard.
Fortunately, he defended the kick with his gauntlets in time so the injury was light. But even so, Yang Haodong was shocked by this 6th Tier Master powerhouse's strength. Because the Devil Master didn't use his full strength at all with the kick earlier.
Yang Haodong got up quickly and went to join the battle.
The Devil Master was currently being ganged up on by ten people, including Blue Sword and Yang Haonan.
However, those Warrior level bodyguards were quickly kicked away and lost the ability to fight.
"Humph, with your puny strength, you think using the advantage of number works against me?" The Devil Master sneered.
Puff!
However, as soon as his words fell, his left cheek was slashed softly and he quickly parried Blue Sword's attack.
"You can swallow your words back!" Blue Sword launched another attack and snorted.
"Good! It seems that you're worthy to let me use my true skills today!" The Devil Master instantly unsheathed both of his red swords and attacked Blue Sword and Yang Haonan.
At this time, the strength of a 6th Tier Master martial artist was revealed in full bloom.
Bang, bang…
Each of his sword swings contained strong power like a bomb. Yang Haonan used his blade to block that swing, but he was still bombarded away like a football.
Blue Sword was almost overwhelmed when Yang Haonan was blasted away, fortunately, Yang Haodong came on time. And this forced the Devil Master to divide his attention.
Yang Haodong and Blue Sword both had the strength of a 5th Tier Master. But against a 6th Tier Master, the number still couldn't make up the attack power.
Yang Haonan coughed for a while before he got with a bit of difficulty and dragged his body to join the battle.
Bang!
But after taking a few steps, a bullet shot over and rushed to his forehead. Yang Haonan raised his sword with a jolt and the bullet hit the blade.
His hand became numb and the blade fell to the ground.
"Damn you!"
Yang Haonan cursed and instantly picked up the blade that was half-broken and ran to the villa in the south.
After a few seconds, Yang Haonan came to the ground of the villa. Then, at the balcony of the 3rd floor of the villa, the shadow of the sniper was gone, only the black sniper rifle was left there.
Yang Haonan tried to sense the sound of footstep with his ears for a while, but he didn't hear anything.
Therefore, he determined that the assassin was still in the villa, waiting to ambush him.
Yang Haonan sneered in his heart, "What a naïve guy! My experience is far more than yours."
Yang Haonan then took out several smoke bombs that he got from those assassins and threw them into the important place of the villa, such as the balcony and the living room on the ground floor.
After that, Yang Haonan used his skill to climb all the way to the roof of the balcony of the villa and threw the smoke bombs to the room connected to the balcony.
Then, Yang Haonan tried to sense the sound of footstep again. His face revealed a smile, "Sure enough, he's still inside."
Yang Haonan didn't go anywhere, he stayed on the balcony quietly.
Before long, a person with a mask came to the balcony. But a sense of crisis suddenly enveloped his back, and before he could do anything, he felt the world around his spin strangely. Then… he saw a body that had no head.
Yang Haonan kicked the head away and immediately took over the sniper rifle. He looked through the scope and saw that his big brother and Blue Sword were being pushed back again and again by the Devil Master.
He then gritted his teeth and aimed at the Devil Master. However, it was not so easy as the three people didn't stay still.
Even though he was a Master martial artist, without much experience and daily practice, it was still not easy to use a sniper rifle.
But he still knew a thing or two about it. Such as the position of the wind, and the way to zoom in and out.
Hence, a minute later, the wind blew gently and Yang Haonan pulled the trigger decisively.
Bang!
The bullet shot out and the recoil couldn't shake Yang Haonan at all.
Puff!
The bullet went straight into the left hand of the Devil Master, making him taken aback.
Then he thought of something and looked around. After seeing that Yang Haonan's figure was nowhere to be found, his face turned ugly instantly.
He initially thought that these two 5th Tier Masters should be easy opponents, but he didn't expect that their strength could actually rival him, a 6th Tier Master.
"Where're you looking at, fool!?" Yang Haodong and Blue Sword immediately took this opportunity to exploit the Devil Master's distracted thoughts and attacked him.
The Devil Master came back to his senses and kicked the ground, trying to back away. The gauntlets missed him, but the sword slashed his red devil mask into two halves.
A young face was revealed instantly, probably about in his early twenties.
Yang Haodong and Blue Sword were surprised, but they weren't particularly surprised. From the battle over the dozens of minutes, they could guess that this Devil Master was not an old person. Otherwise, they would've been defeated a long time ago.
Now that his arm was injured, it was their chance!
"Damn it! It's you who are forcing me!"
The young Devil Master also noticed the bad situation, he gritted his teeth hatefully. Then, he immediately took out a green tablet and swallowed it.
Bang, bang, bang…
But before he could swallow it, a series of bullets collided with the air and rushed straight to back.
Puff, puff, puff…
The bullets penetrated his body but the Devil Master clenched his teeth and forcefully swallowed the tablet.
"Arghhhh…"
Immediately, he screamed painfully and his muscles started to bulge, all his veins swelled like crazy.
He opened his mouth and was about to roar another time, but Blue Sword and Yang Haodong took this chance to come over and attack him.
Blue Sword exerted all his strength and slashed his sword at the neck of the Devil Master.
Yang Haodong also roared and punched the chest of the Devil Master, making the Devil Master's chest sunk.
A head with veins bulging like that of a monster flew to the air. The Devil Master's headless neck had blood burst out like a fountain.
Yang Haodong and Blue Sword fell to the ground and tried to calm down their breath.
The battle was finally over.

In a big and luxurious mansion in Martial City.
"This time, it's fine even if that old man is not dead. As long as the important members of the Yang Family such as Yang Haodong and Yang Haonan are dead, it's worth it. With the two of them dead, the next step will be very easy," Li Wanjing was sat on a sofa and said.
Wu Dahai nodded in agreement and said, "I hope things will just go as smooth as we wish."
"Don't worry, the Devil Master is 6th Tier Master, and that Yang Haodong and Yang Haonan are only 5th Tier Master and 4th Tier Master. There's no way they can win the Devil Master. The advantage of number can't play a role here," Li Wanjing smiled and felt that there should be nothing wrong this time.
Hearing this reassurance time and time again, Wu Dahai also felt that there should be nothing wrong.
The room fell silent afterwards, Wu Dahai and Li Wanjing were waiting for the news from the Papa Devil Organization.Wu Dahai and Li Wanjing did not know that the assassins that they had spent so much money to hire had all been annihilated at this moment.
After stabilizing their breaths for a while, Yang Haodong, Blue Sword, and the other members who didn't receive a heavy injury quickly gathered to clean up the courtyard.
As for the people who were seriously injured, they were to a private hospital silently.
What happened here, of course, attracted the attention of strangers. However, after those strangers saw the level of battle, they quickly retreated far away.
Some people had also taken out their phones to record what had happened there, but their distance was far from the battleground, and coupled with the fact that the courtyard didn't have any lights on at that, the video recorded only contained some chaotic fighting noises and vague images.
The battle of the high-level martial artists was completely out of the scope of the local authority. Hence, even if the police were alerted, they wouldn't interfere, unless the battle involved ordinary people and affected the order of the society.
Not to mention this battle had the military governor of the city involved.
The casualty this time was not great, only some people received heavy injuries. People like Yang Haodong and Yang Haonan were only lightly injured.
However, such a result was entirely impossibly without the help of 'senior Blue Sword', the person whom the Yang Family patriarch asked to come over to help.
Everyone including Yang Haodong and Yang Haonan admired Blue Sword's great skill. But before they could ask for his contact information, he had already disappeared from their sights.
And not even a soul knew that senior Blue Sword was actually… Yang Song at all.
After Yang Song in the appearance of Blue Sword left the courtyard, he immediately found a hidden place that had no one and changed his appearance to another stranger before he left.Time flowed unhurriedly but ruthlessly. In a blink of an eye, it was already morning of the next day.
"Damn it!" Looking at the message he got from a strange number, Li Wanjing cursed angrily.
Wu Dahai also saw the message, saying "Failed". His face also became gloomy. He did not expect that even the Devil Master couldn't deal with the Yang Family.
Soon, the phone suddenly rang and it was that strange number that called.
As soon as Li Wanjing picked it up, the other party said right away, "Mr. Li, we hope that in the future, you don't contact us any more. This time, we've received a very huge blow. And for the sake of the heavy reward that you've given us, we would like to give you some advice. Don't mess with the Yang Family again in the future, or you will regret it."
Toot, toot…
Before Li Wanjing could say anything back, the other party had already ended the call and only the "toot" sound could be heard constantly.
Li Wanjing clutched the phone gloomily and the phone cracked.
"What did they say, brother Li?" Wu Dahai gritted his teeth and asked.
"They said, they received a big blow this time and don't mess with the Yang Family again in the future, … or we will regret it," Li Wanjing closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Crack…
Wu Dahai's hand that was put on the armrest of the sofa clenched silently and the sturdy armrest made of wood cracked inch by inch.
Li Wanjing could only reveal a helpless expression. This outcome was really unexpected.
"Brother Wu…" Li Wanjing sighed and wanted to say something.
But Wu Dahai got up abruptly and said after taking a deep breath, "Brother Li, your help this time is tremendous. I have also thought about this result, so next, I can only implement my next plan."
Li Wanjing nodded calmly, "I see. But if brother Wu needs my help, just tell me. I will do everything I can to help you."
After that, Li Wanjing walked out with Wu Dahai. When Wu Dahai and his group left, the calm and sincere expression on Li Wanjing's face changed, and it was replaced by an extremely gloomy look.
"Well, there is one more time left. After you ask for my help next time, we will be even and no one owes anyone."
This time, in order to help Wu Dahai, Li Wanjing paid a heavy price. The Papa Devil Organization requested for a billion C dollars and a good treasure this time. But the mission actually failed and that organization even put him on the blacklist.
The reason why he helped Wu Dahai so much was that Wu Dahai was a 6th Tier Master martial artist, he didn't want to have any conflict with him. However, he didn't favor Wu Dahai very much, because Wu Dahai was already too old. Sooner or later, he would enter the soil.
And the Wu Family didn't have any outstanding descendants either, most of them were very arrogant and ignorant, thinking that with their father, they could do anything they wanted to.
"Patriarch, should we kill that Wu Dahai instead?" Out of nowhere, there was a rustle from a tree nearby, within a second, a person with a red eyepatch appeared behind Li Wanjing.
"No need. This old man has a hunch that Wu Dahai will take action against the Yang Family by himself, and he will really regret it," Li Wanjing narrowed his eyes into the distance and said.
"Then should we take this opportunity to act as a wolf preying on two sheep fighting each other?" The person with the red eyepatch asked coldly.
"Of course, we will do that. When Wu Dahai falls, we can reveal our appearance and take down the Yang Family," Li Wanjing then turned around and went back into the mansion.White Dragon Mountain.
Soon, Yang Haodong called him, "Father, everything here has ended."
"I see, then you don't have to send anyone to take me back, I will go by myself."
"Yes, father."
Yang Song came back here for two reasons, one was to avoid suspicion, and the other one was to cultivate here.
After the battle last night, Yang Song felt that his realm was stable enough. He wanted to upgrade his cultivation base as fast as possible, but he also didn't want to damage his foundation. Fortunately, the battle with those assassins last night helped him stabilize his foundation greatly.
After he broke through this time, he would cultivate in his secret room for a period of time until the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower withered, after that, he would come back to the cave in the White Dragon Mountain to cultivate in the future.
Yang Song sighed and looked at the family influence ranking. As he had expected, the ranking really rose. Now, the Yang Family ranked 150 in the area under the jurisdiction of Martial City. This should be because the death of the Wu Family members, and the battle last night.
It should not take long to rise to the 100th position and get the Basic Talisman Manual.
Yang Song closed the system and closed his eyes to cultivate calmly.
The Spiritual Energy in the surrounding area trembled slightly before they gathered in the direction of Yang Song. However, not all of them entered Yang Song's body, and the ones that entered Yang Song's body entered in a slow manner.
After each particle of Spiritual Energy entered Yang Song's body, it revolved around Yang Song's body.
After a while, the Spiritual Energy was refined into True Energy and entered Yang Song's pubic area, in other words, his Dantian.
After breaking through to the Foundation Building Realm, Yang Song could refine the psionic particles or Spiritual Energies into True Energy and stored them in this body.
True Energy could be manipulated but Yang Song did not know how to manipulate it yet, this was why the battle last night took him so much energy despite being an immortal cultivator.
Report chapter
The video of the battle in the Yang Family courtyard was also posted on the UU and BIB platform, but the attention that it attracted was not much. At most, people would be curious about what happened to Yang Song and did any of his sons get injured.
Not to mention the quality of the video was not that good, so soon, it was forgotten by people.
Hu Feifei also saw the video.
"But from the look of it, it seems like that old guy wasn't there at all. What a pity," Hu Feifei shook her head in disappointment. She wished Yang Song to die so that she could leave this place and go back to her grandpa.
Thinking of her grandpa, Hu Feifei immediately took out another phone and dialed her grandpa's number.
"Grandpa, do you know about the assassination against the Yang Family?" After the call was connected, Hu Feifei asked directly.
"Huh, really? What about the results?" Hu Feifei's grandpa seemed to be interested in it.
"It seems like that old man was not there, so he should be fine. However, I wonder which organization did it…" Hu Feifei touched her chin and took her other phone to watch the video again, trying to see the clues.
"Speaking of this, the Papa Devil Organization seems to have "gone offline". Maybe it was them who took action and received a heavy casualty," Hu Feifei's grandpa guessed.
Hu Feifei felt strange and said, "Is it really possible? They have so many elites and the Devil Master is a 6th Tier Master at that, even if the mission is not successful, how could it be possible for them to receive a 'heavy casualty'?"
"According to what I have heard, it seems like… the Devil Master is dead," Hu Feifei's grandpa revealed this information slowly.
Hu Feifei was shocked and said, "Who could kill a 6th Tier Master? A 7th Tier Master? Does the Yang Family have a 7th Tier Master? But how is this possible? Or did the Yang Family pay a huge price to ask that expert to help them?"
Hu Feifei's grandpa stayed silent for a while before he calmly said, "I'm also not sure about it. But it looks like the Yang Family is not really as simple as it seems on the surface. Just the Great Energy Pill is enough of a shock, not to mention that old guy who could become a martial artist at the age of one hundred. Simply put, there must be a great secret in the Yang Family. So Feifei, you have to be careful."
Hu Feifei felt that her heart became a bit heavy all of sudden. Then, an old and perverted face surfaced on her mind. "Understood, grandpa. I will try to be careful as much as possible."
When the phone was hung up, Hu Feifei looked at the word "Yang Family courtyard" that was mentioned above the video and her eyes gleamed.
"Yang Family, what secret do you have?"While Hu Feifei was pondering on that, Su Xiaotuan was already on her way to the Yang Family courtyard.
While walking, she also broadcast live.
"Dear audience friends, now, we've arrived at the Yang Family courtyard. But how come everything looks so normal as if nothing had happened last night?" Su Xiaotuan directed the camera here and there around the courtyard.
Many netizens in the live broadcast room immediately expressed their thoughts.
"Maybe Elder Yang has already ordered people to replace all the damaged properties?"
"Anyway, I just want to know what's going on with Elder Yang now."
"Are you guys not curious who battled with the Yang Family last night?"
"I'm just curious why Little Tuan has not sold her personal socks to me so far?"
"We're being serious here, stop your perverted mind a little, can't you?"Before long, the topic had already changed, and most of the people talked about useless things instead.
Su Xiaotuan could only sigh and squat down under a tree that protruded out of the courtyard to avoid the sunlight.
She also looked into the courtyard from time to time, but no human shadow was found, it was very silent inside.
Not long after, her stomach made a noise, hence, she could only stop the live broadcast and walk back home.
"I'll just come again in the evening."It was noon, but strangely, the humidity was not presented around the cave in the White Dragon Mountain at all.
After the serpent was slain by Yang Song, it as if a ferocious breath dissipated along with the wind, making various animals courageous as they started to come to the vicinity of the cave one after another.
However, no animals dared to manifest chaos or mess around near the entrance of the cave or even in the surrounding at all. It seemed like their animal instinct had perceived a breath of a strong but gentle existence in there.
Perhaps it was not so evident when Yang Song cultivated in the secret room in the past, but actually, every time he operated the Immortal Cultivation Secret Manual, his body would subconsciously release a kind of pressure, or to be more precise, a kind of aura that would repel everything except for the Spiritual Energy.
In fact, this was normal. That was to protect him from being disturbed lest his cultivation would be disrupted and it would damage his foundation.
After absorbing the Spiritual Energy for a full morning, an invisible barrier in Yang Song's body finally revealed cracks.
Perceiving this, Yang Song took the chance to attack that invisible barrier right away by hurrying the absorption of Spiritual Energy.
With the Yellow Spring Shell Bead in hand, the speed became even faster.
It was not clear how long it took, but a "bang" sounded and the invisible barrier was destroyed completely.
As soon as he stepped in the 5th stage of the Foundation Building Realm, Yang Song released a breath subconsciously and a cloud of dust was forced to fly up before getting repelled away.
Yang Song continued to absorb the Spiritual Energy and refine them into True Energy which was in the form of gas and stored them in his Dantian until it was full.
Not long after, Yang Song opened his eyes slowly and the aura of suppression disappeared instantly.
Yang Song slowly felt the additional power in his body, then, he extended out his finger and slapped it with the ground gently. His body was lifted into the air immediately, while in midair, he released his cross-legged posture and straightened his body smoothly.
After upgrading his cultivation to the 5th stage of the Foundation Building Realm, Yang Song felt that if he were to fight against the Devil Master again, he was confident to defeat that guy alone within a few moves.
Thinking of the Devil Master, the scene where that guy took the green tablet and his body expanded like a monster manifested in Yang Song's mind.
"I wonder what kind of sinister drug was that?"
At that time, Yang Song clearly felt the strength of the Devil Master was rising rapidly like a balloon. Fortunately, he slew him in time, otherwise, the consequence would have been dire for sure.
After the fight, Yang Haodong contacted his superior and sent the body of the Devil Master over. Now, Yang Song wondered what kind of drug it would be and its origin.
Yang Song took a deep breath, stored the Yellow Spring Shell Bead, and changed his appearance to another person again. Then, he walked out of the cave.
After he came out of the cave, he stood in front of the cave and inspected it calmly.
Yang Song wanted to put a name for this cave. In the future, this cave would be his cultivating abode, therefore, it wouldn't do without a name.
"Yang Song's Cave? No, that sounds too direct. Dark Abode? It sounds a bit weird…"
After thinking of a few names, he was still not satisfied. Finally, his eyes lit up and he thought, "Since this is the White Dragon Mountain, why not name after it? Yeah, let's go with White Dragon Abode."
But even so, Yang Song did not intent to write that name at the entrance of the cave at all, that would be too foolish. It would be fine if he just knew it alone. But if there was a chance, Yang Song would like to carve the name inside this cave in the future.
Then, after thinking of the name of his abode, Yang Song still felt that it was necessary to seal the entrance of this cave.
With a slight leap, Yang Song disappeared from the place.
A few minutes later, he came back with a big rough stone about two meters tall and wide. Then, he put it right in front of the entrance of the cave.
With this, Yang Song soared away from the cave. Soon, he left the forest and came down the mountain calmly. He did not care even if he was spotted, since he was using a stranger's appearance.
Report chapter
After Yang Song came back home, he called Yang Haodong right away.
"Where are you, father?" Right after the call was connected, Yang Haodong asked in a hurry.
"Well, I am back home. You come to meet me now."
"Okay, I will be there right away."Not long after, Yang Haodong drove his car over. He got off the car quickly and entered the house.
Yang Song was sitting and drinking tea calmly in the living room. Seeing that Yang Haodong was here, he motioned him to sit down and said, "Tell me about the battle."
Yang Haodong nodded and started, "This time, the Devil Master and his elite assassins really came personally. As you may have known, we won the battle, and none of our members died. However, a few of our people got injured seriously. We also killed the Devil Master in the end."
"But the battle last night was really dangerous. If it weren't for Mr. Blue Sword, I and Haonan wouldn't really be able to hold on at all. At the end of the battle, the Devil Master took a strange green drug and his strength soared abnormally, luckily, we killed him in time. I gave his body to the Research Department and got some information about that drug."
"That drug is called Final Booster. A kind of drug that can forcefully boost the strength of a martial artist greatly. However, it also comes with a great side effect. After the effect of the drug dies down, the user's strength will plummet significantly and their realm of martial arts will also regress greatly. This is why this kind of drug is generally used at the final moment of life and death."
Yang Song listened and nodded calmly. He could actually more or less guess the effect of that drug.
When the Devil Master used that drug, Yang Song also felt a huge threat from him. If he were to allow the drug to take effect, Yang Song was pretty sure that the Devil Master's strength would enter the threshold of the 8th Tier Master stage.
But there was one more thing that Yang Song wanted to know. So he asked, "What is the origin of that drug?"
Yang Haodong stayed silent for a few seconds before he said, "According to what the director of the Research Department told me, the true origin of that drug is very mysterious. But he said J Country's top alchemist, Jack Petron, has once researched a similar drug. It is just that Jack Petron's drug was a failure because it had a big side effect."
"I see," Yang Song did not have any comment. But in his heart, he estimated that that drug must have had something to do with Jack Petron. As far as Yang Song knew, a successful pill or medicine could have side effects, and not all drugs with side effects were a failure. A failed drug meant that the drug itself had no effects.
A drug with a big side effect was also a successful drug, because again, a failed drug would not have any effects at all.
Yang Song shook his head slightly and put this matter aside, then he changed the subject. "Are you still uploading your novel on Runningnovel?"
"Yes. I have to do that to keep my readers," Yang Haodong nodded.
"When will our website be ready completely?"
"This…" Yang Haodong scratched his head and didn't know what to say.
Yang Song really wanted to slap this guy in the head, "Don't tell me you've never cared about your own company or only left it to your wife all the time!"
"N-no father, I also cared about it. But I was too busy these few days and had no time to care about it. Also, didn't you say to let me care about my work more…" Yang Haodong hurriedly shook his head and said quickly.
Yang Song's face turned black, "You dare to refute me? And can't you care about everything at the same time? You only want to care about your novel and your work, but forget your own company?"
Facing his old father's attack, Yang Haodong, the impulsive military governor, dared not raise his head at all. He lowered his head and rub his fingernails like a child that had done something wrong.
In the end, Yang Song sighed and said, "When you go back, inquire about the situation of your own company. When everything is done, you don't have to post anything on social media. Just delete your novel on Runningnovel and relocate it to Grassynovel directly."
"I understand, father," Yang Haodong nodded timidly.
"Right, how is the situation about that 25-year-old 5th Tier Master? Have you found out his information?" Yang Song changed the subject and asked pretendingly.
Yang Haodong shook his head, "Oh, that handsome warrior? Nothing was found. It is as if he disappeared from this planet since that day."
Yang Song pretended to look disappoint and sighed out a foul breath, "Well, just let it go with the flow. If we are fated, we will surely be able to meet each other in the future."
"Well, then, I'm going to the company now, father," feeling that there was nothing to talk more, Yang Haodong got up and bade farewell to yang Song.
Yang Song nodded, "Well, be safe on the way."
Yang Song then leaned on the sofa and was about to close his eyes to rest, then he heard another person's voice outside.
"What are you going here, Mei'er?"
"I'm looking for grandpa."
"He's inside. I have to go now, see you."
Then, a hasty sound of footsteps resounded and an immature void appeared, "Grandpa!"
Yang Song looked over and saw Yang Mei'er walking over with a bag on her back. "Oh, you're here. Is it done?"
"It's done," then Yang Mei'er quickly opened her bag and took out her notebook and gave it to Yang Song.
Yang Song took the book and began to look through it. This time, the mistakes were already corrected.
The depiction of the technique was the same, it was in the stickman style.
This time, Yang Mei'er changed the way the strength concentrated. Previously, she drew it on the abdomen of the stickman, now, she drew it on the brain of the stickman.
Previously, Yang Mei'er drew a technique that let the abyssal beast train their body, but that was obviously not quite right as some abyssal beasts were born with abnormally strong bodies right away.
So this time, Yang Mei'er divided the technique into two parts. The first part was for the abyssal beasts that were born with frail bodies, and the second part was for the innately strong abyssal beasts.
The first part was to let the frail abyssal beasts train their body first before introducing them to the moves of the combat technique.
The second part was to let the abyssal beasts practice the combat technique right away.
Everything was very simple and easy to understand. It was also much more logical than before.
So far, after looking through every page, Yang Song did not spot any wacky point at all. Yang Song closed the book and looked at Yang Mei'er with a smile.
Yang Mei'er was immediately happy, and said, "Grandpa, how is it?"
Yang Song nodded and patted her head, "Not bad. You did a good job this time."
"Then you are going to fulfill your promise, right?" It seemed like what this little girl cared about the most was the pill that Yang Song promised to give her.
Yang Song laughed kindly, "Of course, but grandpa has to test your technique first to see if it really works. If it really works, grandpa will call you over and give you your reward."
"Then, grandpa, do you have more tasks for me?" Yang Mei'er's eyes revealed a flash of light slightly, looking quite cunning for a little girl of her age.
Yang Song could not guess what would Yang Mei'er become when grew into an adult. At such a young age, she was already like a sly fox, not to mention when she became big.
Yang Song shook his head helplessly and said, "Not for now. When you go back, you can just ask your uncle to give you more books to read. When the test is over, grandpa will give you more task. Right, who sent you over?"
"My friend's car."
"Your friend's car?"
"Well, my friend's parent's car."
"Huh?" Yang Song felt weird. "Are they still waiting for you outside?"
"Yeah, they're waiting outside."
Yang Song felt helpless in an instant, then he got up, "Let grandpa send you out."
As soon as Yang Song and Yang Mei'er came out, a black luxurious car could be seen waiting outside the courtyard.
The door of the passenger opened suddenly and a boy in an expensive outfit got down. A bodyguard hurriedly ran behind with an umbrella.
After arriving in front of Yang Song, the body stopped suddenly, put one hand on his chest, and bowed down, "Greeting grandfather-in-law, I am Mei'er's fiancé."
Yang Song almost jumped in fright. When did he have a grandson-in-law? Looking at this brat's appearance, he should be around Yang Mei'er's age.
Then, Yang Mei'er, who was staying behind Yang Song, walked to the front and slapped the boy in the head. "Who is your fiancée? Also, don't call me Mei'er, call me boss!"
The boy rubbed his head with a wronged expression. The bodyguard behind had his eye twitched slightly. It seemed like he got used to this scene, somehow, otherwise, there was no way a bodyguard would allow a stranger to hit his young master's head so casually like this.
The boy then said pitifully, "B-boss."
Yang Song suddenly felt sorry for this brat instead. He initially thought that this boy was bullying his granddaughter, but it turned out that it was the other way around instead.
"Well, nice to meet you. What is your name?" Yang Song asked calmly despite the strange feeling in his heart.
"Grandpa, he is called Rong Xiaolong, my underling," but Yang Mei'er said first and said smugly at that as if having an underling was a great thing to be proud of.
Report chapter
After Yang Mei'er left, Yang Song went back into the room and called Yang Haonan.
"Hello, father."
"Haonan, do you know that I have a grandson-in-law now?" Yang Song said expressionlessly.
"Huh? What?" Yang Haonan seemed to be unable to catch it.
"Well, never mind. How is it going with your alchemy now?" Yang Song felt troublesome talking about Yang Mei'er, so he changed the subject instantly.
"Oh, I and Xueqing are researching a new pill now," Yang Haonan answered.
Yang Song nodded and felt that his second son really worked hard, "I see. Then what pill are you going to make this time?"
Yang Haonan stayed quiet for a few seconds before he said, "Ugh… you know, father, I'll just mix whatever materials available randomly, so I'm also not sure what kind of pill will be produced too."
Yang Song somehow felt that it was necessary to take that praise earlier back. He could only sigh helplessly, "Just make sure not to poison people. Also, look after Mei'er properly, don't let her have any puppy love at school or whatsoever."
With that said, Yang Song pressed the "end call" directly and got up. Then, he went to the secretly slowly.
It had been almost two days since he had seen Xiao Laoxu and the Undead Steel Scavenger.
After a while, he unlocked the door of the secret room and walked inside.
As soon as he entered the room, what greeted him was an abnormal sight that made his face turn black. He saw that the originally timid Undead Steel Scavenger at this moment was smoking a white cigarette while lying down on his personal futon, with one leg crossed the other leg.
This abyssal bird had no hands, how did it actually light up the cigarette? No that was not important right now, the most crucial point was, how dared it occupy his personal futon?
Yang Song was not really angry, but he walked silently from behind and suddenly asked calmly, "Is it comfortable lying here?"
The Undead Steel Scavenger puffed out a cloud of smoke and uttered a sound slightly as if to answer the question. Then, after another puff of smoke, it was stunned. It hurriedly got up from the futon and with a "whoosh", it was already inside its hole. But it still poked out its head from the hole to see Yang Song's expression.
'That was very dangerous! How did this old devil come so silently? Why did I not feel his presence earlier?'
Yang Song gazed back at the Undead Steel Scavenger and the latter immediately went back into its hole. Then, he said gently, "I haven't collected your scales for two days now, shouldn't you…"
Before Yang Song could finish what he wanted to say, eight pieces of scales flew over and landed near his foot with a slight noise.
Yang Song smiled at the scavenger and nodded his head as if to praise this beast for having a flexible mind.
After retrieving those eight hard scales into his storage space, Yang Song gazed to the space near the hole of the scavenger and found that the originally abundant foods he left for the Undead Steel Scavenger to eat had only one-third left at this moment.
"It is not even fully two days yet, but he's already eaten so much. What a waste," Yang Song complained for a while. But when he thought that he could get the scales of the Undead Steel Scavenger, which were a treasure, the feeling of helplessness disappeared.
"Whatever, those foods are worthless compared to his scales, anyway."
Yang Song then looked around the room and found that Xiao Laoxu was nowhere to be seen.
Before he left, he told that little guy to relax for a few days. Could it be that guy intended to go wild outside these few days with no intention of coming home even once?
Yang Song walked to the Undead Steel Scavenger and asked the latter, "Did little Laoxu come back home once?"
And as expected, the Undead Steel Scavenger shook its head.
"That fellow…" A wave of helplessness hit Yang Song slightly again. Now, he could only let it go with the flow. He did not know how to contact that fellow, anyway.
Yang Song then went to his futon and sat down, then, he turned on his laptop and opened the social media platform to see if anything interesting had happened.
After scrolling for a while, a hot post caught his interest.
"Liu Fei, the chairman of Martial City Writers Association, aka the author of a classic novel, the "Infinity Mountain of Chaotic Snow", was expelled from his position by the president of the National Writers Association personally. The reason is, he colluded with a person from the National Writers Association and suppressed the author of Battle Through the Paradise…"
This post was made by a verified news media account. There was also an official letter with a stamp of the National Writers Association and the president's signature attached below the post.
This post had hundreds of thousands of likes and hundreds of thousands of shares. The comments were also countless.
"Poof, I bet that shameless Liu Fei is vomiting blood right now."
"Haha, the respected and humble ex-chairman Liu turned out to be such a corrupted dog. I regretted supporting him previously!"
"Huh, you guys take a look at his profile. He made so many posts scolding Elder Yang and the author of Battle Through the Paradise. I bet he did that because he felt jealous of that author."
"Damn, I've never seen such a two-faced person."
"He also insulted the Great Energy Pill for being a fake thing. Hehe, I think this guy should be banned from buying the Great Energy Pill or any pills from Elder Yang for life."
"I wonder where those brainless supporters of Liu Fei went…"
"I guess their cheeks are very crimson right now with this severe slap!"
"I think Liu Fei should apologize to Elder Yang and author of Battle Through the Paradise publicly for what he had done!"
"Upstairs, 1"
"2"
"3"After that, many people began to clamor to ask those offenders to apologize to Yang Song and author of Battle Through the Paradise both in the comment section and the forwarded posts.
Seeing this, Yang Song didn't feel surprised at all. He felt that with Yang Haodong's ability, he should be able to retaliate silently and effectively without revealing his own identity.
Yang Song guessed that something must have had happened to Yang Haodong's novel previously.
After pondering for a while, Yang Song was about to call Yang Haodong, but when he thought of that guy's unreliability, he called Zhang Qinqin instead.
"Little Qin, when everything will be ready?"
"Dad, I just so happened to want to call you earlier. Right, we plan to launch both the website and the app two days later. Right now, all the novels have enough chapters."
"That's good. This old man plans to advertise it a bit today. Tell me about the promotion on the launching day."
"Okay, dad. We plan to offer 88% off for everything, including the coins and some other features. We will also allow readers to read a certain number of novels for free for a limited time only."
"Hmm, that's good. But this old man has one request, those classic novels stolen by those guys will also be displayed there. This old man will call them and ask them to contact you in a while. And those novels will be free forever, but users can still send gifts."
"Okay, no problem, dad."
"By the way, how is Mingfei now?"
"Him? He's become even more headstrong now. After I beat him up that day, he became even crazier. Now, he even plans to participate in an international chess competition…" When speaking of her son, Zhang Qinqin felt angry in an instant.
Yang Song's ear twitched uncomfortably, he interrupted her directly, "Well, that's his passion. Just let him go with the flow. This old man found that many young people in this era have become less and less ambition, they don't even have passions. So if Mingfei can participate in that competition, it will be a great thing. If he can become the champion, then the reputation of our family will rise along with it…"
Yang Song talked smoothly and tried to convince Zhang Qinqin, this tigress daughter-in-law, to let Yang Mingfei pursue his passion.
After listening to the many things that Yang Song talked about, Zhang Qinqin was unexpectedly convinced and she changed her tone. "I-I see, dad. It's my fault. Then I will support him from now on instead."
"Good, good."
After hanging up the phone, Yang Song felt a bit mentally exhausted after talking about so many bullshits.
But he felt that Yang Mingfei's choice to participate in an international competition like that was really not bad. If he could become a title-holder or a champion, the Yang Family's influence value and the ranking would inevitably rise greatly.
After a while, Yang Song turned his attention to his laptop and wrote a post. Then he published it on UU and BIB.
"Dear friends, our Grassynovel is almost ready. The website and the mobile app will be available in two days. This old man guarantees that all the novels will be very different from the norm, each novel is very interesting. By the way, everything will be 88% off, some novels will also be free for a limited time. And there will also be some old classic novels that will be free to read forever. This old man hopes that all friends will check it by then."

After the post was sent, it immediately attracted a lot of attention. Countless people liked and comments in an instant.
"Old classic novels? Free to read forever? Is it true?"
"This promotion sounds good, don't worry Elder Yang, I'll be sure to check it out two days later."
"I hope it will be as good as Elder Yang said by then."
"Hehe, here it comes again. This old guy is being shameless again. If I visit your website at that time, I will consume eight pounds of dog sh*t with soy sauce for you to see online!"
"The dickhead upstairs, I have already screenshotted your comment. Don't worry, I am a programmer, I will "check" on you two days later. If I see you visit Elder Yang's website, make sure to fulfil your promise by then!"
"I suddenly want to see people eat dog sh*t. Is there a solution to eliminate this weird desire? #Requestforhelponline."
"I support Elder Yang!"
"1"
"2"
"I hope to see this old man of the Yang Family becoming a laughingstock at that time."
"Well, didn't Elder Yang ask the author of Battle Through the Heaven to leave Runningnovel and join his Grassynovel previously? Until now, I've never seen any response from that author. I guess he just disdains to interact with this shameless Elder Yang, haha."All kinds of people commented. Some scolded Yang Song, some supported him, some laughed at him. But Yang Song did not even bother to check his own post, let alone checking those comments.
Yang Song at this moment was thinking about the Li Family who hired those assassins to kill him.
If Yang Song did not take revenge, wouldn't other people look down on his Yang Family in the future? It was not that he wanted his family to stand out; it was just that he wanted to show some power so that unnecessary troubles wouldn't come to his door.
However, Yang Song did not plan to take action against the Li Family openly. He had a few ways of taking revenge. For example, killing Li Wanjing directly but secretly so that the internal balance of the Li Family would break out. Yang Song was very sure that the Li Family members were not so unifying.
A family with a master like Li Wanjing wouldn't be so peaceful underneath. A ruthless and hateful character like him surely had a lot of people who hated him. Hence, as long as Yang Song could kill him, Yang Song had a hunch that something unpleasant would manifest in that family for sure.
Second, Yang Song could ask Xiao Laoxu to go to the Li Family's house and steal their important treasures.
Third, Yang Song could ask Yang Haodong and other people to have a showdown with the Li Family directly, of course he and his group would change appearances.
However, among the three ways of taking revenge, Yang Song felt that the first one was the best choice.
As for why Yang Song was thinking about this thing, it was because, at the moment, his family ranking was approaching the 100th rank. When Yang Song checked the system earlier, he found that it was Great Energy Pill was the main cause of this.
The Great Energy Pill had just entered Martial City in a large batch today and it was booming.
Currently, his family ranking was at the 120th rank, twenty ranks away from the 100th rank in the area under the jurisdiction of Martial City.
Therefore, after Yang Song got the Basic Talisman Manual, he would go to Martial City and take revenge against the Li Family.At this moment, in a certain basement of a certain building, near Destiny Garden of Martial City.
"Damn, who the hell stole my treasures? Who? Who is it? I curse your entire generation to die miserably!" A black-suited muscular middle-aged man with a scar on his left eye and a bald head was cursing with an extremely ugly face.
Two weeks before, all treasures were all here. He had just gone away for two weeks, but all his babies suddenly disappeared from the super durable safe boxes? Which thief was so wicked and professional?
Behind him, there were a dozen of people with all kinds of colorful hairs. They were standing with their heads down while gulping their saliva slightly from time to time.
Bang!
Crack…
The muscular middle-aged man then could not help it anymore. He kicked the wall of the basement near him angrily. A loud sound appeared and a deep pit was imprinted on the super sturdy concrete wall.
Those punks behind almost jumped away in fright as sweat started pouring down on their foreheads one by one.
A yellow-haired guy with a big tall stature took a deep breath and walked to his boss, then he comforted, "Boss, let's calm down first."
"How can I fucking calm down when all the treasures that I have gathered over the years suddenly disappeared out of blue like this? You tell me! How can I calm down?" The middle-aged man yelled aggressively, his spits flew out uncontrollably and rained down on the yellow-haired punk without mercy.
The yellow-haired punk took out a yellow handkerchief and wiped his face. It was unknown whether he tried to wipe his sweat or the spits that attacked him earlier.
After that, he said again, "Boss, how about we look around inside this underground basement to see if there's any secret passage, and that thief actually came through that secret passage?"
The middle-aged man cursed for a while more before he calmed down a little. Then, he turned back and looked at the yellow-haired subordinate, then at his other underlings. "Did you ask the building owner to check the security camera?"
The yellow-haired guy immediately said, "I've already asked. In the past two weeks, only over ten different people have walked past our room, and none of them is suspicious. We also checked the security cameras in our room, everything is completely normal. Even the door of this basement doesn't have any damage or even fingerprints."
Bang!
The middle-aged man punched the wall this time. A tremor immediately showed up. He took another breath and said, "Well, you guys check this basement carefully to find evidence. I don't believe that those treasures could use a heavenly technique to teleport away from this almost enclosed basement."
"Yes!" Hearing this, everyone immediately answered and checked around the basement room carefully.
Inside this basement, there weren't many things, only a few big safe boxes made of stainless steel, a carpet covered the entire floor, a table, and a few sofas.
A few people went to inspect the safe boxes and found that all the latches of the safe boxes were cut cleanly and smoothly.
They immediately called their boss, "Boss, look here. The latches are cut off."
The middle-aged man immediately went over and took a look. He found that part of the latch was cut off and it still stuck in the hole on the other side. From the surface of the cut, it was estimated that an abnormally sharp knife did this.
But looking around the basement, there was no damage at all, indicating that no person had come inside. But only a fool would believe that. The thief must be extremely professional.
"Ahhh!"
After a while, a shout attracted everyone. When everyone looked over, they found that an orange-haired punk had fallen into a hole in the corner of the basement.
Feeling strange, the people near that punk walked over and helped him out, then they inspected the hole.
That hole was actually formerly covered by the carpet. It was about half a meter wide. It was not deep farther down, but from the look of it, this hole should be extended horizontally.
"Boss, I think this is it! The thief must've had come through this hole!" The orange-haired punk immediately called out excitedly.
The middle-aged man frowned and walked over.
After seeing the hole and the way it extended, he furrowed his brows, "Huh? But its distance passage is quite small, how could a person come through it? Not to mention, just by looking at it, I feel suffocated enough."
The subordinates nearby also felt what their boss said was very reasonable. But one of them said, "Could it be a kid? A kid who practices martial arts did this?"
Everyone scratched their heads and felt that this was also reasonable.
Then, another guy said, "Or was it an expert martial artist who practices the snake technique then he used his snake-like body to crawl through the hole? Also, did he deliberately make such a narrow passage so that we can't track him via this hole?"
Some people touched fingered their noses and nodded. This conjuncture was also reasonable.
The middle-aged man touched his bald head and narrowed his eyes dangerously.
Then, he suddenly said, "Humph, then I'll just play with you!" After that he looked at his underlings, "Buy all the necessary tools and prepare to track that damn thief through this hole!"
Those punks did not dare to refuse at all. They instantly left the basement and went to complete the order.
But the yellow-haired punk did not leave, after making sure that only he and his boss were left, he hesitated for a while.
The middle-aged man noticed this and said, "What is it?"
The yellow-haired punk squinted his eyes and said, "Boss, Luo Xiang has gone to Tong City for a while now, but he has never contacted us so far. That guy knows of this place too…"
The middle-aged man knew the yellow-haired guy wanted to say, but he laughed, "Haha, so what if he knows? That guy is only a pseudo-martial artist, and he has no remarkable ability at all. Also, he dares not betray me, he's very clear about my methods. I'm very sure of this because I left a psychological shadow on him before."
Then the middle-aged man glanced at the yellow-haired subordinate slightly.
The latter trembled suddenly, and he said with a stutter, "T-then, I'm going to do the job now, boss."
But with this reminder, the middle-aged man still felt that it was necessary to question that Luo Xiang guy. These punks under him were not so loyal, deep down in their hearts.
Report chapter
Far away from Martial City, entering a certain area not far from the Yang Family courtyard, in a newly dug pit connected to a hole under the ground.
A small figure that seemed a bit bigger than a kitten with a shiny body could be seen hugging an orange spherical object the size of an adult's fist, his tongue appeared from time to time and licked the big bead with gusto.
That small figure was of course Xiao Laoxu.
The orange bead seemed to be hard, but it was actually very easy to bite. However, from the look of Xiao Laoxu, he seemed very reluctant to bite the delicious-looking bead.
"No no, I have to keep this thing for my Master, I can't eat it," then his eyes moved away from the orange bead in his hand and rested on a big pile of treasures in the pit near him.
"If I bring everything back, Master will praise me for sure. But I worked so hard, I can't just give them to him without bargaining," Xiao Laoxu's eyes revealed determination, and he declared, "Master must not let me do those exercises anymore, if not, if not… then I'll just keep these treasures to myself!"
After lingering here for a little while more, Xiao Laoxu decided to take the orange bead with him.
Xiao Laoxu was currently a 1st Tier Soldier monster, with this level of strength, in fact, he was not much weaker than a 1st Tier Warrior martial artist at all. Hence, it would not be a problem for him to carry an object that weighed hundreds of kilograms at all.
Xiao Laoxu swiftly left and made his way towards the Yang Family courtyard, or the secret underground room to be more specific.
It was not known how long it took, but when Xiao Laoxu popped his head out of the hole, the first thing he spotted in the secret room was his master.
"Squeak! Master!" Xiao Laoxu made a squeaky sound and hurriedly ran over to Yang Song, who had his eyes closed and was holding a strange flower.
When Xiao Laoxu saw that strange flower, his eyes immediately lit up brighter than ever. Then, looking at the orange bead in his hand, he felt that this orange bead was a piece of trash compared to that flower.
Yang Song heard the sound and opened his eyes, then he saw Xiao Laoxu. "So you still know to come back home, huh?"
But when Yang Song saw the orange bead the size of his fist in Xiao Laoxu's hand, he was attracted by it instantly. "What is that thing in your hand?"
"Squeak, treasure, I mean trash, found in a far off place," Xiao Laoxu answered, but his eyes still glued on the flower in Yang Song's hand.
"Let me see," Yang Song said. Then Xiao Laoxu handed the orange bead over.
Yang Song immediately took the orange bead and looked at it carefully. After a little thought, he immediately knew what it was.
This thing was actually an Abyssal Salmon Egg. As the name suggested, it was an egg of an abyssal fish. That monster fish was actually not really a salmon, even its appearance was not identical to that of a salmon.
However, its roe was very similar to the normal salmon roe, it was just that the roe of this abyssal fish was composed of very few eggs, and each egg was very big. The biggest one that ever Yang Song had ever seen was two times bigger than the one in front of him.
And this monster fish egg was very expensive, Yang Song estimated that the one before him could be sold for at least 500,000 C dollars.
This Abyssal Salmon Egg was, on the one hand, a rare delicacy that contained a lot of rich energy. It could be eaten raw directly. On the other hand, it was a good raw medicinal material for refining pills. Therefore, Yang Song decided to keep it for refining pills instead.
But hearing Xiao Laoxu said that it was a trash earlier, Yang Song had the urge to laugh a little.
"Where did you find this thing?" Yang Song felt that this kind of treasure couldn't be found randomly at all.
Hearing this sensitive question, Xiao Laoxu immediately came back to his senses. Then, he hesitated for a while before deciding to tell the truth, "I… I found it in my underling's boss's place."
A question mark appeared above Yang Song's head. What did he mean by his underling's boss? Shouldn't the boss of his underling be himself? Could it be there were two bosses?
Yang Song felt confused for a while. Then, he continued, "Who is your underling?"
"Squeak, he's called Luo Xiang."
"Luo Xiang? Is he a mouse too?"
"No, he is a human."Yang Song felt weird and did not know what to say for a while. This little guy could actually find a human and subdue the other party and the other party became his underling? This was… too incredible, right?
"How did you know him?" Still feeling puzzled and weird, Yang Song couldn't help but ask.
"Squeak, Master, you should know him too. He is the guy who tried to rob me when we first met," Xiao Laoxu revealed the information.
"Huh?"
Yang Song stayed silent for a while. Then soon, he thought of when he first saw Xiao Laoxu and was about to buy Xiao Laoxu, a robber stole Xiao Laoxu and wanted to run away. But he was tripped by his foot, and Yang Song became popular because of that.
It actually turned out to be that thief? But didn't Xiao Laoxu resent that guy? How the hell did the robber who tried to rob him become his minion now?
"So it's like that," Yang Song nodded. But he still felt ridiculous, "Then how did he become your lackey?"
"Squeak, I-I don't know, he just became submissive as soon as we met. I also provide him with Great Energy Pill. Squeak, he also told me about his former boss' treasure house."
"Oh, then there are more treasures, right?" Yang Song's eyes lit up.
"Squeak, yes!"
"Good, then go bring them over now."
Xiao Laoxu immediately turned around and ran to the hole. But as he was about to jump into the hole, he suddenly froze.
Wait, he had not talked about the condition for bringing all the treasures over yet.
Then he ran back to Yang Song who was about to close his eyes.
Yang Song noticed him and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Squeak, Master, I-I have a condition," Xiao Laoxu lowered his head and said timidly.
Yang Song raised his brows, but he did not object, he deliberately asked, "Oh, what is the condition?"
"I… I hope you don't give me exercises anymore," after he said this, Xiao Laoxu immediately turned his body around and avoid Yang Song's gaze.
"I see, then you bring the treasures over," Yang Song said calmly.
Xiao Laoxu instantly raised his head and revealed excitement. He thought that Yang Song had agreed to his proposal, he yelled excitedly, "Squeak, okay, Master!"
Then, with a whoosh, Xiao Laoxu turned into a blurry shadow and rushed towards the hole, before disappearing from the secret room.
Yang Song shook his head helplessly with a smile.In the basement of a building in Martial City.
"Fuck, boss, which hole should we choose? There are six holes inside!" A green-haired punk came out of the hole and shouted at the middle-aged and ruthless-looking man.
At first, only one person dug the hole, but after digging and expanding the hole for a while, he found that there were six more holes further inside.
When the middle-aged man heard this, his face turned black for the nth time, and he cursed loudly, "Fuck it! They actually came in a group? Those damnable thieves are so wicked! If I catch them, I will stew them alive and let those abyssal beasts eat them!"
Because there were six holes, it meant that there should be six people. Only this kind of logic was applicable. There was no way that one thief would spend time to dig as many as six holes, it would need a lot of time.
Then the middle-aged man said, "Isn't it just six holes? Then six of you can just dig the six holes all together!"
Six punks among the more than ten punks nodded as they entered the hole and dug it, trying to expand the narrow hole gradually.
Initially, they bought a lot of digging tools. But when they stayed digging for real, they found that digging by hands directly was more convenient. It was not much for them since they were actually Warrior martial artists.
However, after digging and crawling farther and farther for almost an hour, they turned left and right a few times. But then, they realized something was not right. By the time they tried to turned back and return to the basement, they found that the path had changed.
After trying for dozens of minutes, they confirmed the fact that they were led astray by this maze-like hole.
Back at the basement, the middle-aged man and others were still waiting inside. Suddenly, a cell phone rang.
"What is it?" A punk answered the phone. Then, after hearing the content, his face stunned on the spot.
After the call ended, he looked at his boss and said, "Boss, they got lost in the hole!"
The middle-aged who had just calmed down had the urge to vomit blood in anger at this moment.
"There are countless more holes and passages inside the hole, and before they knew it, they already got lost inside. Now, they are trying to find a way to get back," the subordinate continued.
At first, the middle-aged man thought that his minions were so dumb to the point that they could even get lost inside a simple hole. But after hearing that, his hatred against the culprits who stole his treasures shot through the roof.
He looked at his minion and said angrily, "Tell them not to come back, just dig their way through until they find a useful place inside there! If they dare to come back, I will personally break their necks!"
The guy who reported earlier immediately called and told the people inside the holes.
Report chapter
After more than two hours of going back and forth between the pit that stored the treasures which was not far from the Yang Family courtyard, Xiao Laoxu finally brought all the treasures over.
When Yang Song saw the pile of treasures, he was stunned. After he counted, he found that there was a total of 158 pieces of treasures, including big and small.
Most of the treasures were medicinal materials and precious parts of abyssal beasts. Only a few were tools.
Among few tools, their grades were not so much different from each other, but there was one treasure that stood out and attracted Yang Song's attention the most.
It was a thin white shirt made of a special kind of unknown material. Feeling extremely curious, Yang Song turned on his Eyes of Insight and looked at it.
But the system prompt made him stunned.
[Sorry Host, Eyes of Insight can only allow you to analyze people, things related to immortal cultivation, and abyssal beasts' natural attributes. To upgrade your skill, please wait until the system's next upgrade.]
"I see, so the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower is an item for immortal cultivation, right?" Yang Song nodded and asked, then he looked at the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower beside him.
[Yes, Host.]
Yang Song took a breath and continued, "So when will you upgrade?"
[When Host becomes a Core Formation Realm cultivator.]
Yang Song fell into silence. To become a Core Formation Realm cultivator, Yang Song would have to take several months. Actually, if there was no need to consolidate his cultivation realm, Yang Song was confident that he would be able to hit the Core Formation Realm one or two months later.
However, in cultivation, what mattered the most was the foundation, not the speed of cultivation. Yang Song did not want to break through so fast because that would be no different from damaging his foundation. It was the reason why Yang Song deliberately stayed idle or just messed around here and there.
But from Yang Song's previous experience of battling against those assassins, he found out that fighting could also help him consolidate his foundation, and it was the best method at that.
Hence, now, Yang Song was considering finding ways to fight. He could go out and purposely pick a fight with other people, he could find some thugs, he could also go to dangerous areas to fight with the abyssal beasts…
Yang Song fondled the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower while thinking of ways to consolidate his foundation, suddenly, Xiao Laoxu who was staying silent and watching him from the side made a sound, "Squeak, Master, w-what is that baby?" Xiao Laoxu then pointed towards the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower in Yang Song's hand.
Hearing this question, Yang Song answered without thinking, "Spiritual Energy Binding Flower."
Hearing such a long and difficult to understand name, Xiao Laoxu frowned. But he did not care much about the name, "T-then, Master, can I eat it?"
Yang Song raised his brows and thought that this mouse had become very daring somehow. He solemnly refused without thinking, "This thing is indeed a good thing, but if you eat it, there's a possibility of exploding yourself to death."
This was the truth. There was so much Spiritual Energy inside the flower, a low-level beast like Xiao Laoxu wouldn't be able to take it at all.
Xiao Laoxu didn't doubt Yang Song's words at all because Yang Song made such a solemn face. He shuddered at the thought of that, so he backed away a little from the flower.
Yang Song then stored the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower in the storage space. After that, he looked at the 158 pieces of treasures and with a thought, all the treasures were stored inside.
Afterward, Yang Song got up from the futon and walked to the table. On the table, there was a notebook. This notebook was what Yang Mei'er had given Yang Song previously.
Yang Song opened the notebook and looked through it for a while. After making sure again and again that there were no problems with the technique, Yang Song turned his gaze and stared at Xiao Laoxu.
Xiao Laoxu felt the gaze and wondered what Yang Song was thinking.
In fact, Yang Song was looking at Xiao Laoxu with the Eyes of Insight. Above Xiao Laoxu's head, there was a red circle and some information.
Species: Golden-Eyed Mouse
Combat Power: 1st Tier Soldier monster
Talent: hole drilling (100), treasure hunting (100), wisdom (69), comprehension (25), language (70)
Previously, Yang Song also wanted to find a way to help Xiao Laoxu improve his strength. He could also use the Washing Marrow Pill, but the cost would be not so low. But now, with Yang Mei'er's technique, Yang Song felt that he would be able to solve this problem easily.
So Yang Song gave the book to Xiao Laoxu and said, "Look at this book."
Xiao Laoxu was taken aback for a moment, thinking that Yang Song didn't keep his promise and ask him to do exercise again. But when he saw that there were only pictures in the book, he was relief tremendously.
After a while, he finished looking through everything. He felt that the postures and the signs in the book were easy to understand and imitate, but he did not know what was the use of doing that.
Seeing Xiao Laoxu's puzzled face, Yang Song explained, "This is a martial art technique that allows beasts to practice."
Hearing this, Xiao Laoxu felt excited in an instant, "Squeak, really?"
After staying in human society for so long, Xiao Laoxu had witnessed many battles between people and beasts. When fighting, especially humans, they had so many cool moves and could use so many cool weapons.
Every man's dream was to practice martial arts and fight with their cool moves. Xiao Laoxu, as a male mouse, was no different from a male human.
Now, his Master said that the thing he had just looked at earlier was a martial art technique, how could he not be excited?
Seeing Xiao Laoxu's unconcealed excitement, Yang Song let out a smile and said, "Well, did you remember it?"
Xiao Laoxu froze for a second and thought of all the moves he had seen earlier. Then, he scratched his head and pleaded, "Squeak, Master, please let me look at it again, j-just a little."
In Xiao Laoxu's mind, martial art techniques were extremely precious and could be regarded as supreme treasures, and this resulted in his humble behavior.
Yang Song felt speechless and laughed, "Here you go."
Xiao Laoxu took the book again, but this time, he held it very carefully as if afraid that if he was not careful enough, he would damage this treasure.
Xiao Laoxu turned all the pages one by one very seriously this time as if to make sure that every single detail would be imprinted in his mind.
It took a full ten minutes for him to read all the contents.
When Yang Song took the book back, he asked the excited Xiao Laoxu, "You understand which part of the two parts you should practice, right?"
Xiao Laoxu nodded vigorously, "Squeak, yes, I should practice the first part which is for my frail body."
Yang Song nodded, "Good, then you can start now."
Xiao Laoxu then walked away from Yang Song a bit and started.
First, he closed his eyes and tried to sense his Inner Core which was positioned in his brain nucleus.
After he sensed his Inner Core, he started feeling the strength in his body that was scattered in all parts of his body. For Xiao Laoxu who used his limbs to dig the ground often, it was extremely easy to sense and guide his strength.
In science terms, strength was the ability to accelerate a mass form a state of rest, which resulted in the production of muscular force.
But in martial arts terms, strength was invisible energy that scattered here and there inside human body. As long as humans could guide those invisible energies and make use of it properly, they would be naturally strong. Therefore, the martial artists gave this invisible energy a simple name – Martial Energy.
Immediately after that, Xiao Laoxu slowly controlled his scattered Martial Energy and guided it towards his Inner Core.
After his Martial Energy entered the Inner Core, it was as if the Inner Core had become alive as it suddenly revealed a warm and comfortable feeling.
After all the Martial Energy entered his Inner Core, Xiao Laoxu let out a breath and opened his eyes.
The first and fundamental step in practicing martial arts was a success.
The next step was to practice the martial technique.
The technique made by Yang Mei'er was derived from the human's Basic Martial Arts Technique. After the derivation, Yang Mei'er made some simple changes with the area of the limb and replaced it with beast limbs.
However, this martial art technique was obviously only suitable for beasts with hands. Since it was a basic technique, it only contained some rudimentary moves that involved punching, kicking, evading, blocking, and a few other simple moves.
Every time Xiao Laoxu punched or kicked, his Martial Energy would rush over very quickly, adding strength to his punch and kick. With that, his punches and kicks were full of power.
Seeing Xiao Laoxu's vigorous moves, Yang Song nodded in appreciation. But in Yang Song's mind, he thought that even if this little guy knew such moves, he was still not an opponent of a bigger enemy.
Therefore, Yang Song felt that it was necessary to modify a technique for the little Xiao Laoxu.
Report chapter
With Yang Song's experience and knowledge of martial arts, it was not difficult to modify a basic fighting method for Xiao Laoxu at all.
For Xiao Laoxu's small body, it had both good points and bad points.
First of all, his small body was very agile and fast. With his strength, he could explode an astonishing speed that surpassed creatures at the same level or even possibly creatures a level higher than him.
Second, it was his paws. After the evolution, Xiao Laoxu's paws were similar to that of a cat's. His paws could hide his claws like a cat, it could be said that this was his secret and most lethal weapon and defensive tool.
Last but not least, Xiao Laoxu's IQ was above average powerful beasts or even or par with human's IQ.
As for Xiao Laoxu's disadvantage… his most basic disadvantage was that his small body couldn't do anything if his opponent was an experienced fighter. Take Yang Song as example, with Yang Song's experience and mind, he had countless ways to deal with Xiao Laoxu. Just his pure strength and speed alone could already squash Xiao Laoxu to death.
Hence, the technique that Yang Song wanted to design for Xiao Laoxu was most focused on quick offense, quick defense, and quick evasion. And this relied on his fast speed the most too.
Within thirty minutes, Yang Song had already drawn all the postures and simple explanations in words.
The quick offense heavily relied on Xiao Laoxu's claws. His claws were abnormally sharp and sturdy at the same time, even stronger than alloy steels.
In the offensive stance, Yang Song portrayed all the vital parts of humans and some basic abyssal beasts. With Xiao Laoxu's intelligence, Yang Song believed that that little guy could make use of all those vital parts to win the fight.
As for his defense, Xiao Laoxu could either use his claws to block the attacks or cut off the opponent's weapons. It was very simple and effective.
Finally, the evasion. The evasion stance involved dodging and escaping from the opponent in case the opponent was too strong. The simplest and most effective method to escape was to run away and dig the ground quickly and escape through the ground.
After editing here and there a bit more, Yang Song called Xiao Laoxu over and gave Xiao Laoxu the papers that wrote.
"Squeak, thank you, Master!" Xiao Laoxu hugged the papers as if hugging a treasure.
Looking at Xiao Laoxu, Yang Song knew that there was one more thing that he still lacked. That was his realm of strength.
For all abyssal beasts or normal beasts, they evolved by consuming things with energy such as abyssal stones, abyssal beast meats, treasures with energy, pills, and even human martial artists' meat.
After thinking for a while, Yang Song took out a big bag of abyssal meat jerky and handed it over to Xiao Laoxu.
"Squeak, Master…" Xiao Laoxu was stunned, wondering why his Master was so generous today.
"Take it and upgrade your strength," Yang Song put the bag down before he walked back to his futon.
Yang Song also thought of upgrading the Undead Steel Scavenger, but he had to observe its attitude for a while more. That guy acted like a king when he was not home, and its personality was also quite aggressive by nature, so Yang Song planned to keep it as his treasures provider for the time being.Martial City, Martial Police Station, in the interrogation room.
Six people with colorful hair and dirt all over their bodies were sitting on a chair respectively, their hands were cuffed with handcuffs made of special material that even a 7th Tier Master couldn't break.
In front of the six people, two aggressive-looking people in black suits were glaring at the six people.
Among the two, one was a woman, and the other was a man. Based on their appearances, they should be in their thirties, and from their breaths, they were probably peak-level Warriors or even Masters.
On their chests, there was an identity card that represent their identities as detectives.
The two parties were separated by a table, but even so, the six punks were still quite frightened inside. Fortunately, they were more or less used to this already. Their boss was equally aggressive and even cruel, therefore, they all had mastered the art of staying calm on the surface.
The man in the black suit at this moment opened his mouth and said deeply, "Tell me, who sent you? What is your purpose for digging a passage under the ground of Martial Police Station?"
From his tone, he didn't seem to be angry at all, just right on the line.
When the six people heard this, they looked at each other and whispered to each other for a while.
Then, a guy with a green ear stud took the initiative to reply, "No one sent us. We were just digging the ground to seek fortune, we just didn't expect to dig to the police station. You've really misunderstood us."
The male detective frowned, "Do you believe it yourself?"
The meaning of this question was simple – if even you don't believe it yourself, do you still expect us to believe you?
But the six of them were still calm and the green-ear studded guy still said calmly, "I'm telling the truth."
The other five also nodded in agreement and repeated, "We were really digging for treasures. You know, these days, even if you're a martial artist, it's still not easy to earn money. Not to mention the treasures out there are so expensive. Hence, we could only resort to digging treasures. It's just a coincidence that we dug it till here."
Bang!
"Do you think we are fools?" The detective suddenly raged as he got up from the chair with a clang and slapped the table. The dense metallic table had an extra palm imprint instantly.
The female detective did not say anything from the beginning to the end, she just sat there with a calm expression. It seemed like she was used to her companion's temper already.
The six people swallowed their saliva secretly as their gaze inadvertently glanced at the deep palm imprint on the table.
Slap!
The male detective slapped the few documents on the table to let the six people see. On documents, there was detailed information including the criminal record of the six people respectively.
"Tell me the truth if you don't want to experience any pain. Otherwise, I will let you know the consequence of lying to me," the male detective added.
Seeing the contents on the documents, the six involuntarily felt a chill. It had only been over ten minutes since they were caught, but their information was already on full display.
At this time, the female detective took the documents over and read them for them.
"Wei Ying, 25, 3rd Tier Warrior. First offense, manufacture and distribution of heroin near an elementary school. Second offense, harassing a high school girl. Third offense, stealing a martial artist's pill…"
"Li San, 24, 2nd Tier Warrior. First offense, aggravated assault with a wrench on a pedestrian. Second offense, stealing a martial artist's abyssal meat…"
"Chen Bai, 27, 3rd Tier Warrior. First offense, resisting arrest. Second offense, insulting a group of innocent high school students in public…"After all the information of the six people was read, the female detective narrowed her eyes and looked at the six. Then, she said, "But you have one thing in common, that is, all of you work under one person. That person is your boss and he's named Lang Ping, a 2nd Tier Master. In addition, that person also has many more minions like you guys. At this point, do you still think that lying will help you?"
The male detective took the turn to speak, "If you still don't say it, I will really use the 'hot' method to interrogate you guys. The new law allows us to torture people like you."
The six punks at this moment were soaked in a cold sweat. They then looked at each other again and felt hesitant to speak.
Seeing this, the made detective took out his phone and dialed a number, "Prepare the special interrogation room. There will be guests in a while."
Hearing this, the six clamored to speak in an instant.
"I will, I will say it! Please don't do anything to us! We dug the ground to… find the thief who stole our boss' treasures."
When the two detectives heard this, they felt weird in an instant.
The guy explained, "Today, our boss' treasures suddenly disappeared. We found a hole in the room that stored the treasures, and we suspected that the thieves came through the hole. That's why we dug the hole."
"But we did not expect the culprits to be so cunning. They dug so many passages under the ground and we got lost in it. But our boss didn't allow us to return until we dig to a useful place. So we could only dig all the way through randomly. After we coincidentally met each other in the hole, we finally decided to go through the same hole… finally, here we are."
After the two detectives heard this explanation, they fell into silence and pondered on the authenticity his words.
According to what he said, there should be more than one thief and those thieves sneaked into the treasure room of their boss by digging underground holes.
After they found the hole, the six of them dug all the way through, but the passages of the holes were too confusing, leading them to dig randomly without a specific direction.
Coincidentally, they dug over to the ground under the police station.
"But even so, you dug and damaged the public ground illegally. Do you know that with your dig, it could damage the road greatly? The ground will become loose, and when it rains, it's possible that the road will break apart and that will lead to fatal accidents."
The female detective suddenly said while knocking on the table.
The six punks knew that today, they would have to be detained inside the police station for sure, unless their boss came over to bail them out.
Report chapter
Back at the basement room, after waiting for over two more house, Lang Ping still didn't see the six punks.
Just as he was about to call them directly, a familiar person suddenly called him.
"I've been waiting for over two hours now, where the hell are you? What took you so long?" Without waiting for the other side to speak, Lang Ping yelled angrily.
But what the other party said next directly made his face become gloomy in an instant, "What? You six were caught by the police? You dug to the ground below the police station? Are you stupid? Damn, wait for me, you trash!"
After hanging up the phone, Lang Ping walked out of the basement room in an angry manner and did not forget to say to his other minions, "Let's go to Martial Police Station!"
The several punks looked at each other and thought of what their boss had said earlier when talking on the phone.
Those six guys… were caught by the police? So amazing? They dug directly to the ground under the police station?Three cars galloped on the street and came to Martial Police Station.
When Lang Ping came inside, he saw the six dirty punks right away. Seeing them, Lang Ping strode over quickly and slapped them in their heads angrily.
"You trash! You only know how to make troubles outside all days long!"
The six guys almost fainted from the slaps. Fortunately, they were already used to the slap. They just lowered their heads and rubbed their painful heads timidly. The hits earlier were not weak at all, that was the strength of a 2nd Tier Master martial artist.
When the two detectives who just arrived heard what Lang Ping said, they felt strange. Wasn't this guy the one who ordered the six guys to dig the ground?
When Lang Ping saw the two male and female detectives, he put away his ruthless face in an instant.
Lang Ping revealed a smile, "Hehe, I apologize for what they did. When I go back, I will teach them a good lesson and will not let them dig the ground randomly again in the future."
Seeing the 360-degree change of personality of this Lang Ping, the two detectives felt that this guy was no simple. What's more, from the foul breath on Lang Ping's body, they were very sure that he had killed a lot of people. Since he could still roam outside freely, then it would only mean that his background must not be simple.
However, the two detectives were righteous people. They did not care even if this Lang Ping had the background of the demon, their duty was to eliminate evil.
But even so, they couldn't arrest him as they were short of evidence.
The male detective said a few words to the police responsible for preparing the documents and dealing with the bailment, then he gave one last look at Lang Ping before leaving with the female detective.
From the beginning to the end, he did not say anything back to Lang Ping. It was as if he regarded Lang Ping as air.
Lang Ping did not seem to be angry or embarrassed either, he still stood there with a smile as if the words he had just said earlier weren't said by him at all.
The police responsible for the final works wrote something on the document a bit before he said to Lang Ping, "After the inspection, we found that they have caused the most serious damage to the public properties. Each person has to pay the fine of 200,000 C dollars each. So totally, it's 1,200,000 C dollars."
In the past, when people damaged public properties, the offenders had to face a light jail sentence for vandalism. Also, they had to go to the court and pay the fines directly to the court.
But since martial arts had become prosperous, the act of vandalism had become very common now and the offenders were generally martial artists. Therefore, it would be very troublesome to settle it down in the court, so the new law directly allowed the local police station to handle it instead.
For the police responsible for handling this time's crime, he felt quite weird. It was the first time that he had encountered such a strange way of damaging public properties. But he did not care that much.
When Lang Ping heard the amount of fine he had to pay, he did not frown or anything, but directly asked for the bank account number of the police station and transferred 1,200,000 C dollars, no more no less.
When Lang Ping and six punks including those other punks walked out of the police station, Lang Ping's calm and smiling face directly turned ugly in an instant. The breath of a 2nd Tier Master martial artist instantly appeared to be stronger, and it pressed down on all the punks nearby.
Especially the six punks, they felt that every step was very heavy. They thought that after they went back, parts of their limbs would have to be broken for sure.
When the three cars left the police station, the two detectives emerged from the gate of the police station and gazed at the three cars that had already become three dots in the distance.
The male detective said silently, "I've already asked Xiao Wang to check that Lang Ping, he's a very difficult character. No, it seems like the one behind him is the difficult one."
The female detective frowned and asked, "Is he involved in something big?"
The male detective nodded, "Yes, it seems like he's one of the minions who's responsible for distributing those Final Boosters."
"What? Final Boosters? The forbidden drug that can boost strength and make a person become a monster?" The female detective was shocked.
"The user will indeed become a monster, but that's only temporary. After the effect of the drug ends, the strength of the user will plummet and his realm of martial arts will regress greatly. But the scary thing is that when the user becomes a monster, he will lose his sanity and start killing crazily," the male detective took a heavy breath when he said this.
"Have you ever encountered one before?"
"No, but just recently, my friend in Tong City encountered one. Luckily, he killed that person in time, otherwise, I'm afraid that all the residents around there would have to die."
"So strong?"
"Yes, my friend said that person was only a 6th Tier Master, but he could enter the threshold of the 8th Tier Master if the drug took effect completely."
The female detective was shocked again. This kind of drug was too sinister. If it did not have that great side effect, maybe it would become a supreme treasure. But the creator of the drug just had to make it a sinister drug instead.
"You said it was your friend from Tong City? Why have I never known about this?" She had been working with him for a few years now, but this was the first time she heard that her companion had such a powerful friend who could slay a 6th Tier Master in Tong City.
"Well, my friend's father is my benefactor, and I became friends with him afterward. Do you know the Yang Family? My friend is Yang Haodong, the military governor of Tong City."
"The Yang Family? The family who produced those two great pills? In other words, your benefactor is Yang Song, the patriarch of the Yang Family?" The female detective was stunned.
"Yeah," the male detective nodded.After the three cars left the police station, they did not go back to the building earlier, they instead went to a nightclub located in a place where different gangs gathered together – Martial City's Black Gang Paradise District.
The nightclub was named Black Wolf and was the turf of Lang Ping.
When Lang Ping came, several people in black outfits directly came to the car in the middle and opened the passenger door.
"Gang Master."
"Gang Master."Lang Ping got off the car, but he didn't care about those several people, his face was ugly and asked, "Where's Yang Hu?"
A person replied quickly, "Vice Gang Master is in room 007."
Lang Ping snorted, "It's just right," then he looked at the six punks behind him.
The six guys had already figured out what would happen to them when the direction of the car turned to the Black Gang Paradise District.
Room 007, that was the room two levels under the ground of the nightclub, and it was a… 'punishment room'.
The six guys could only sigh at their bad luck and walked inside obediently.
When other people saw this, they could only pat those six guys' shoulders for their bad luck. But from those people's expressions, no one seemed to pity them at all. There was even a hint of gloating and mockery instead.
Walking inside the club, it was full of people. People from all walks of life came to this place to enjoy themselves. However, those people were generally ordinary people, only several of them were martial artists, but even so, they were only low-level martial artists.
This club had a total of four floors, but if included the two more floors hidden under the ground, there would be six floors.
Lang Ping and the six punks walked to a closed room.
If other people came to look inside, they would be stunned. Because the seven people clearly went inside just now, but the seven people disappeared somehow. Unfortunately, this room couldn't be entered by just anyone. Only the main members of the gang had access to it.
Report chapter
By the time the six punks came out of the room, it was already night. However, from the appearance of the six guys, it seemed like they did not receive any injuries at all. But their eyes were a bit strange, they had this lifeless look as if they were walking dead.
"Wei Ying?" A man couldn't control his doubt and came up and called one of the six guys.
Wei Ying was a blue-haired punk. When he heard his name, he turned his head over to look at the caller silently and smile, "What is it?"
Seeing this smile, everyone felt weird in an instant, but they did not care about it much, because Wei Ying was usually like this.
But before they could continue their conversation, a voice came from behind, "Why are you still lingering around here? Go do the work!"
It was Lang Ping.
Seeing him, everyone except the six people immediately lowered their heads and scrambled to go to their positions.
Lang Ping did not say anything, he just walked out of the club, and the six guys followed behind him silently.
While walking, Lang Ping took out his phone and sent out a message, "Your orders will be there soon."It was morning, and Yang Song, sleeping in a cross-legged posture, slowly opened his eyes and let out a breath.
A faint white mist came out of his nostrils slightly, it did not disperse but still linger around his body, coupled with his white outfit, this made his entire body quite ethereal and like an old immortal in the mundane world.
Then, with another exhale, all the mist dispersed into the air gradually.
But as Yang Song was about to get up, a system prompt greeted him.
[Ding, congratulation to the Host for completing the side task. The Yang Family's current rank in the area under the jurisdiction of Martial City is 100th.]
[Ding, congratulation to the Host for obtaining the Basic Talisman Manual 1000 talisman papers! Please check your inventory for more information.]
"So fast?"
Initially, he thought that it would take one more day for the task to be completed, based on the speed he had estimated.
But it looked like his Great Energy Pill exploded in a circle in a certain place.
Yang Song immediately took out his phone and opened UU, trying to see if he could find the cause on there.
However, as soon as he opened it, a red 99 in the notification section caught his eye instantly.
After going to the notification section, he saw that countless people mentioned him. And without exception, all of them praised his Great Energy Pill for its heaven-defying effect.
"Aye, this old man is already 89 years old this year and is also a 1st Tier Master. This old man thought that he was going to leave the mundane world in order to pursue the greatness of martial arts. But after taking the Great Energy Pill, it let the dying desire in this old man jump up. Right now, this old man and his friends are trying to spread our desire to our other friends, and let them know the greatness of this magical pill. This is all thanks to Elder Yang. PS: This old man has been single for 89 years now, but this old man is expecting a child nine months later."
"Oh no, this pill is too great, I'm still 18 years old, and I don't want to be a father yet. But the aftereffect of this pill can make me stronger, what to do? This is too bitter-sweet! Thanks, Elder Yang, by the way."
"Fortunately, I took this pill in a brothel, so I don't lack helpers. But this kind of thing is not bad at all, because I can get stronger by consuming it. Thanks, Elder Yang."
"Oh my, my husband and I just had a fiery 'dual cultivation' last night thanks to Great Energy Pill. I was about to faint in the middle, but luckily, we also bought Spirit Energy Pills. I think I'm going to have another child. By the way, now, my husband's strength has indeed been increased. This pill is really a treasure. Thanks, Elder Yang."Scrolling down, Yang Song saw a post made by a well-known 5th Tier Master in Martial City.
"This Great Energy Pill is really magical. Some people said it is a side effect, but in my opinion, this side effect is not a side effect at all. What kind of side effect lets you release your desire and make you so comfortable? The Spirit Energy Pill is also a very good helper. After taking it, I can extend the 'side effect' of Great Energy Pill significantly. It is a pity that monks cannot consume Great Energy Pill, but the Spirit Energy Pill, in my opinion, is a great tonic for monks, since they love to practice and meditate all the time. Thanks, Elder Yang."
Not only that, but there were also more posts made by other well-known people too, and this trend was still ongoing.
As long as Yang Song refreshed, he found that more mentions would appear every second.
Yang Song felt quite satisfied with this, then, he put the phone away and turned his attention to the reward he had just gotten instead.
Without a thought, Yang Song summoned the Basic Talisman Manual out of his storage space.
However, what appeared was not a book or a scroll, but a gray jade slip two times longer than his index finger and the size a bit bigger than his thumb.
As soon as this jade slip appeared, a system prompt swiftly manifested.
[Learn the Basic Talisman Manual? Yes/No]
After Yang Song chose 'yes', the jade slip immediately disappeared bit by bit. But everything happened only in one second.
After the jade slip completely disappeared, a mass of information took shape in Yang Song's mind magically. However, there was no pain or whatever like in those novels.
With that, Yang Song instantly knew everything about the basic-level talismans.
Basic Talisman Manual, like its name suggested, introduced him to all the information of basic talismans and the method to draw basic talisman symbols.
The rank of the talisman was divided into basic, advanced, spirit, elemental, heaven, origin, and divine. And each rank was also further divided into low grade, high grade, and perfect grade based on the quality of the talisman symbol that the maker could draw.
Similarly, the rank of the talisman maker was also divided into Talisman Master, Grandmaster, Doyen, Commander, Ancestor, Emperor, and Overlord.
For the entire Basic Talisman Manual alone, there were thousands of types of talismans. However, as long as one mastered 100 types of basic talismans, he could be called a Master. Similarly, if one could master 100 types of advanced talismans, then he would be called a Grandmaster. And the same principle applied to other ranks as well.
However, for Yang Song, he basically knew all types of basic talismans, and from his consciousness, he knew that he could draw perfect grade basic talismans.
Therefore, Yang Song was in and out a Talisman Master now.
At this moment, what made Yang Song happy the most was that in this Basic Talisman Manual, it also introduced the way to command True Energy in his body, what was what Yang Song hungered after the most all this time.
After all, in order to draw the talisman symbol, the maker had to use one's own True Energy and injected it into the brush when drawing, so as to make the talisman effective.
"I feel so lucky today, hehe."
Yang Song calmed down his exciting mood and decided to try commanding his True Energy.
With a thought, Yang Song felt that the gas inside his Dantian moved along with his command.
'Out!'
Yang Song shouted in his mind and gas instantly rushed to his hand. However, when the gas came out, it was in the form of colorless energy instead of the form of gas.
Yang Song knew that it was because he cultivated the Immortal Cultivation Secret Manual that his True Energy became colorless. However, Yang Song could still see his so-called colorless True Energy.
After that, as long as Yang Song commanded, he could control his True Energy into whatever shape he wanted. And he could also inject it into whatever he wanted.
When he finished experimenting with his True Energy, Yang Song's face turned serious and summoned out a talisman paper from his storage space.
To make a talisman, with his current stage, Yang Song had to use a brush. Luckily, Yang Song also had a writing brush down here.
A moment later, Yang Song found that brush and pondered on what kind of talisman he should draw.
Regarding the type of talisman, there were the one-time-use type and permanent type, and it was also further split into the offense type, defense type, and support type.
Yang Song then thought of one of the easiest support type talismans – Strength Talisman.

Strength Talisman, just as its name implied, it was a talisman that could increase one's strength. It could be used both on humans and beasts.
Yang Song held the brush with one hand and began to inject his True Energy into the brush.
To achieve the perfect stroke of the talisman symbol, that was the realm pursued by many. However, for Yang Song, this was as easy as drinking and eating.
As soon as the brush touched the talisman that was laid vertically on the table, Yang Song's hand moved without any delay.
Each stroke was connected to each other smoothly, the flow was free and unobstructed along the way.
Everything seemed to happen for a long time, but in reality, not even a few seconds had passed yet.
After the strength talisman symbol was drawn, a mystical scene manifested. The blank talisman paper shone slightly in yellow light, then, a complicated red symbol that resembled an ancient character appeared on the talisman paper.
A second later, the dim slight converged and the yellow talisman paper had an additional symbol on, lying motionlessly on the table.
Yang Song put the brush aside and picked up the talisman to inspect.
He felt incredible when seeing the perfect edge, perfect border, and perfect size of the ancient symbol, Yang Song almost couldn't believe that such an amazing character was drawn by him.
Yang Song had practiced calligraphy, but he knew his level very well. However, after mastering the Basic Talisman Manual, his skill in writing and drawing characters rose to an unimaginable height that he could've never hoped to reach in the past.
Yang Song had to sigh with emotion again at the power of the system.
"Next, it's time to test the talisman."
Yang Song muttered, then, holding the Strength Talisman in one hand, Yang Song shouted in his mind, "Activate!"
The Strength Talisman in Yang Song's hand instantly glowed with dim yellow light, after that, the whole talisman dissipated bit by bit into Yang Song's body at a speed visible to naked eyes.
In the instant that the Strength Talisman disappeared, Yang Song felt the strength in his body rose slightly.
However, the "slightly" was actually a lot in general. This was because Yang Song's cultivation base. The basic rank talisman could barely increase the strength of a high-level Foundation Building Realm cultivator like Yang Song. Hence, it was completely normal.
But don't forget that this basic rank Strength Talisman was of perfect grade. Therefore, Yang Song's strength was higher than normal.
If this kind of talisman was used by a low-level Foundation Building Realm or Qi Refining Realm cultivator, the effect would be more obvious.
Yang Song looked at the teacup on the table and reached out his hand to pick it up.
Crack…
However, as soon as Yang Song applied a little strength to the body of the cup, it shattered into pieces instantly.
This was within Yang Song's expectation, he deliberately let go of the slight control of his strength earlier.
After a while more, Yang Song noted down the overall effect of the basic rank Strength Talisman in his special note book.
Basic rank Strength Talisman: it was most effective with Qi Refining Realm and low-level Foundation Building Realm cultivators. After a rough estimation, it could allow a 1st stage Qi Refining Realm cultivator to have the basic strength of a 1st stage Foundation Building Realm cultivator.
Starting from the 4th stage Foundation Building Realm, its effect would be reduced significantly.
The duration of this talisman was 10 minutes.
It could be used by any person or beast, be it an ordinary person or an ordinary beast. People or beasts that had no True Energy had to activate it by pasting it on their bodies, but the effect would be reduced from 10 to 9.
After noting everything down, Yang Song threw the notebook back into his storage space.
Next, Yang Song began to draw other useful talismans that he could think of. They were Speed Talisman, Sound Isolation Talisman, Fire Ball Talisman, Water Arrow Talisman, Poison Talisman, and so on.
Each talisman also needed a different time to be drawn, but the longest Yang Song needed was 7 seconds only, and the easy talismans needed 5 seconds.
But as far as Yang Song's True Energy was concerned, Yang Song could only draw 25 basic rank talismans at most if he did not stop.
Yang Song also felt that he was a bit too reckless with his behavior, so when he finished drawing the 15th talisman, Yang Song stopped abruptly as he sat down cross-legged, took out the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower, and began to cultivate to restore his True Energy.After Yang Song restored his True Energy, he put the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower back into the storage space and looked at Xiao Laoxu who was sleeping.
If this guy had woken up earlier, he would be very fascinated with the magic scene when Yang Song was drawing various talismans for sure.
"This lazy fellow," Yang Song shook his head. Yesterday, Xiao Laoxu was practicing very hard, looking as if he was super determined to work hard and change his bad habit. As a result, it was already almost 9 in the morning now, but he was still asleep with his butt pointing to the sky.
Yang Song then got up from the futon and walked to the microwave. That's right, Yang Song was going to refine Washing Marrow Pill this time.
On the one hand, he wanted to give this pill to Yang Mei'er as a reward as promised previously. On the other hand, Yang Song wanted to try to develop something out of this Washing Marrow Pill.
Yang Song took out all the necessary raw materials and tools from the storage space and sat down in front of the microwave.
According to the Washing Marrow Pill Secret Recipe, Yang Song ground the rhinoceros horn, mixed it with the Golden Horn Unicorn blood, stirred it…
Since this was the second time he was refining this particular pill, and coupled with the fact that he had refined quite a lot of pills previously too, every process was not so troublesome like in the previous time at all.
When Yang Song refined the Washing Marrow Pills for the first time, it could be said that there was no difficulty, but this time, it was extremely easy.
After mixing everything together according to the formula, Yang Song poured the essence into a bowl and placed it in the microwave.
"Let's start."
When everything was done, Yang Song pressed the button on the microwave.
With that, he focused his attention on the timer on the microwave and silently calculated the time at the same time in his heart.
Before long, a faint aroma floated out of the microwave quietly. Smelling this familiar scent, Yang Song subconsciously breathed it in greedily. It was really comfortable and refreshing,
Not just Yang Song, but the asleep Xiao Laoxu and the Undead Steel Scavenger who was playing inside its hole were also affected by this smell.
Xiao Laoxu abruptly opened his eyes and walked over with an intoxicated expression.
The Undead Steel Scavenger stopped playing with the steel spikes inside his hole and came out.
The two guys soon came to Yang Song's thigh and sat down on the ground, staring at the microwave with drools flowing out of their mouths.
One person and two unusual beasts, just like this, stared at the microwave together, and counted the time in their hearts.
Ding!
Finally, 7 minutes 7 seconds 49 milliseconds later, a crisp electronic sound of the microwave appeared.
But at the millisecond, Yang Song's hand moved and unplugged the power cable of the microwave.
At this moment, the smell of medicine was stronger than ever. But except for Yang Song, the other two guys were greedily and quickly absorbing the mist and smell of the medicine into their bodies.
Yang Song opened the microwave door and took out the bowl that contained the crystal clear essence which was readied to be molded into round pills.
Yang Song then began to mold the pills. Each pill was exactly, no more no less, five grams.
But this time, Yang Song had refined a total of 12 Washing Marrow Pills.
However, different from the previous time, Yang Song had no intention of eating the Washing Marrow Pill at all. He was already a 5th Tier Foundation Building Realm cultivator, the Washing Marrow Pill had no effect on him.
"Squeak, Master…" At this moment, seeing that Yang Song was about to store the twelve precious babies away, Xiao Laoxu called out anxiously.
"Caw, caw…" Even the usually timid Undead Steel Scavenger flapped its wings anxiously, afraid that those treasures would disappear.
Yang Song was taken aback by the reactions of the two fellows. Then, he let out a smile.
"I can let you eat one each, but I have conditions," Yang Song's eyes rested on the two fellows.
The two guys nodded their heads like chickens.
"Squeak, yes Master!"
"Caw, caw…"
Yang song said, "First, Little Laoxu, make sure to get up early every day to practice martial arts. Don't slack off. If I see you slacking off, don't ever dream of eating this pill again."
Xiao Laoxu naturally nodded without thinking, but Yang Song still felt that this fellow would soon return to his previous behavior for sure.
Yang Song then looked at the scavenger and said, "And you, scavenger, if you take this pill, it means that you will have to become my pet. This is the price. Are you willing?"
Hearing this, the noisy Undead Steel Scavenger fell into silence and lower its head, as if thinking thoughtfully.
A few seconds later, the scavenger raised its head, nodded, and shouted, "Caw!"
After staying with Yang Song for this period of time, although the scavenger was in his hole most of the time, he was actually not that stupid.
He also observed Yang Song from time to time. And just earlier, he had accidentally seen Yang Song performing those magical arts on those mysterious yellow papers.
But leave those things aside first, just the strength of Yang Song alone was crushingly strong enough.
It was just this old devil was quite evil as he had to take his scales from him every day…
Seeing the Undead Steel Scavenger's determination, Yang Song smiled slightly and took out a talisman.
Report chapter
Among the many basic rank talismans that Yang Song knew, there was a type of talisman that Yang Song found quite interesting, that was the "Beast Companion Talisman".
This Beast Companion Talisman could bind the soul of a beast and let it become a companion of a cultivator.
Take note that even though it was a 'companion', it was still more or less a pet of the cultivator.
This talisman was not completely a basic rank talisman, as the cultivator's strength grew, the binding force in the soul of the beast would also continue to advance.
When Xiao Laoxu swore to be Yang Song's loyal pet, Yang Song could indeed perceive his loyalty. However, with the Beast Companion Talisman to boot, there was no need to be afraid of betrayal in the face of benefit and oppression at all.
Of course, if the beast betrayed or had malicious thoughts against its master, the binding power that bound their soul would explode and kill them.
Naturally, there were also methods to exterminate the binding power of the Beast Companion Talisman, but those methods were only available to cultivators. The people of this world had no hope of doing anything to this kind of unknown thing at all.
Not to mention, according to the Basic Talisman Manual, the Beast Companion Talisman was… an ancient type of talisman.
When Yang Song drew the fifteen talismans previously, he had also drawn three Beast Companion Talismans.
After Yang Song took out the Beast Companion Talisman, he looked at Xiao Laoxu and said, "Drop one drop of your blood on this talisman, from then on, you won't be able to betray me, you will be my companion for the rest of your life, or until I voluntarily release you."
Xiao Laoxu, as a mouse with a high IQ, knew everything that Yang Song said. He did not understand what the so-called 'talisman' was, but he knew that this thing was a very magical thing, and only its Master had it.
Just this alone made Xiao Laoxu unhesitant to the extreme, therefore, Xiao Laoxu resolutely revealed his claw and slit his small paw slightly.
A drop of scarlet blood fell down and touched the mysterious yellow Beast Companion Talisman.
The symbol on the talisman abruptly lit up in golden-red light and absorbed the blood of Xiao Laoxu.
After the blood of Xiao Laoxu disappeared, the Beast Companion Talisman flew up promptly, turned into a golden light, and shot into Xiao Laoxu's small body, disappearing.
Immediately after that, Xiao Laoxu felt that the depth of his very soul had an additional force that was lying in. That force was not malicious, on the contrary, it was gentle and warm.
At the same time, Xiao Laoxu also felt a kind of connection between him and Yang Song, which was very mysterious and awe-inspiring.
Witnessing the entire magical process, the Undead Steel Scavenger also felt that it would be his misfortune if he did not become this old devil's companion too.
Seeing Yang Song looking at him, the Undead Steel Scavenger voluntarily cut his wing a little.
Yang Song was satisfied with the Undead Steel Scavenger's smart performance, and he extended the Beast Companion Talisman over and let the blood of the scavenger fall on it.
The same mystical scene took place again.
By the time Yang Song felt the spiritual connection with the Undead Steel Scavenger in his soul, the talisman had already disappeared.
"Very good. From now on, you both will be my companions, but since Little Laoxu came under my wings first, then he is your elder brother," Yang Song looked at the scavenger.
Hearing this, Xiao Laoxu felt ecstatic and said secretly in his heart, "Another underling has come."
"Next, as my pet, it would be too vulgar if I keep calling you Undead Steel Scavenger. So let's find a name for you," Yang Song continued, "how about Xiao Laofei?"
The scavenger did not care much about his own name initially, but hearing this name, he nodded vigorously and let out his cry, "Good, good…"
Yang Song was surprised suddenly because he could understand the cry of Xiao Laofei. Technically, the sound was still "caw", but in Yang Song's ear, it turned into "good".
"The function of the Beast Companion Talisman is really amazing."
Yang Song sighed in his heart, then he said to Xiao Laofei, "Good, then next, I will also modify a technique for you to practice later on."
"Good, good!" Xiao Laofei understood what Yang Song meant. He had seen the little mouse, no, his elder brother practicing those cool moves.
"Little Laoxu, don't forget to share the jerky with your little brother too, understand?" Yang Song then looked at Xiao Laoxu who was looking at the Washing Marrow Pills in Yang Song's hand with bright eyes.
"Squeak, yes, Master, Laoxu will look after little brother!" Xiao Laoxu came back to his senses and patted his chest.
"Then, here you are," after that, Yang Song handed one Washing Marrow Pill to Xiao Laoxu and Xiao Laofei each.
The two guys, one mouse, one bird, took the Washing Marrow Pill at the same time.
Actually, Yang Song decided to give the pills to them because the two guys also contributed a lot.
Xiao Laoxu had given him a lot of treasures which he got from Luo Xiang's former boss.
Xiao Laofei had provided him a lot of scales which were good materials suitable for refining tools and medicine at the same time.
After giving away two pills, there were ten pills left.
After Xiao Laoxu swallowed the pill, like the previous time, his eyes became blurred and he began to squeak in pleasure constantly.
His light-golden fur became even lighter, and some silver furs actually began to appear. A faint white smoke also floated out of his body at the same time.
Yang Song then opened his Eyes of Insight and looked at Xiao Laoxu.
Species: Golden-Eyed Mouse
Combat Power: 2nd Tier Soldier monster (Evolving, please wait…)
Talent: hole drilling (100), treasure hunting (100), wisdom (69), comprehension (25), language (70)
After seeing Xiao Laoxu's attributes, Yang Song turned to look at Xiao Laofei instead.
The scavenger's changes were even more obvious. His dark scales became gray and smoother than before.
His slightly gray beak became shiny white.
But what surprised Yang Song the most was the changes in his attribute.
Species: Undead Steel Scavenger
Combat Power: Quasi-Tier 3 General
Talent: steel (81), undead (95), comprehension (14), wisdom (38), language (21), transformation (unlocking)
Yes, the new talent was what surprised Yang Song the most. In other words, Xiao Laoxu did not have any new talent even after consuming two pills. But this scavenger opened up a new talent as soon as he ate one pill.
However, this was also reasonable. Xiao Laoxu was only a Tier 2 Soldier, while Xiao Laofei was a Quasi-Tier 3 General.
Perhaps when Xiao Laoxu hit the General stage, he would also open a new talent, or it was also possible when he broke through to the higher rank in the Soldier realm.
Yang Song looked forward to what kind of talent was this "transformation". But he also had two guesses in his mind. First, this talent allowed the Xiao Laofei to turn himself into another type of bird, which was similar to disguise. Second, it allowed him to change his size at will.
After watching the two guys a while more, Yang Song walked to his futon, picked up his phone and dialed Yang Haodong's phone number.
"Hello, father."
"Are you free at the moment?"
"Oh, I just finished writing my chapter."
"Good, help me notify all the members to gather at my place tonight at 9."
"Okay, father, but is it necessary to gather all of them? Because of some of them…"
"This old man knows, just notify them, if they are busy, just let them busy. As long as the important members like you, Haonan, your wife, Mei'er, and so on come, it's fine. You can just relay my words to those who are absent by then."
"Yes, father, I will do it now."
Yang Song hung up the phone and took a deep breath.
Tonight, he wanted to talk to everyone about the Washing Marrow Pill. Seeing that Xiao Laofei could open a new talent by taking it, Yang Song felt the faster he allowed his descendants to eat it, the better it was.
Because as long as his family's essential strength increased, Yang Song's strength would also become stronger. The reason was, if his family could enter a new top ranking, the system would issue him a new reward.
Yang Song was extremely sure of this. The system previously stated that its obligation was to make Yang Song stronger as much as possible, and as soon as possible. But the premise was that Yang Song could also complete the task, grow his prestige, and make a new height of achievements, especially things related to his very family.
Report chapter
Time flew, in a blink of an eye, darkness had already covered the entire Tong City, and the moon was already hung high in the sky.
At this moment, Yang Family courtyard.
Around the yard, there were several bodyguards guarding the entire yard.
There were also several cars parked in the yard, but all the members had already gone to the second underground room, which was a special family meeting room.
In a simple-looking but an almost enclosed room, Yang Haodong, Yang Haonan, Yang Mingfei, Yang Mei'er, Yang Song's daughters-in-law, and other younger generations were here, only a few were missing as they were out of the city or just simply too busy with their works.
Yang Song, wearing a white retro shirt, was sitting in the main seat at the head of the long table.
Yang Haodong and Yang Haonan and their wives were sitting on both sides of Yang Song respectively. Simply put, the seniority status was based on the order of the seat.
Yang Song's temperament at this time was even more extraordinary than before. After becoming a 5th state Foundation Building Realm cultivator and mastering the Basic Talisman Manuals, Yang Song at this moment could be said that he was approaching the realm of invincibility.
The other members in the room also felt the changes in their old patriarch, but they did not say anything.
The young members like Yang Mingfei, Yang Mingxing, Yang Mei'er, and others were also sensible enough, they did not dare to make any noise.
After a while, Yang Song took the initiative to break the silent atmosphere, "Today, this old man wants to check the overall situation of you guys, and at the same time, this old man also wants to reveal something."
"Regarding the family management committee, this old man previously said that he would set it up in two days after the last meeting, but this old man was too busy to care about it. So now, this old man will announce that this old man will be the main controller, Haodong will be the second controller, and Haonan will be the third controller."
"Haodong and Haonan, both of you can also recruit other people to work under you. As for the contribution, every time a member in the family makes a contribution, you two will be responsible for checking the authenticity of their contributions."
Yang Song paused and observed everyone's face, and he saw that they wanted to ask a lot of questions, but he said naturally, "This old man knows what you want to ask. But don't ask anything about the contribution points and so on until the app software is ready. What do you think?"
Everyone nodded in understanding and seemed to have no objections.
At this time, Yang Haodong spoke, "Father, then, about the resources…"
Yang Song said promptly with a smile, "You don't have to worry, this old man has countless resources in his hands."
Next, Yang Song changed the subject and his gaze fell on Yang Mei'er who was sitting in silence, "Not long ago, this old man asked Mei'er to create a technique suitable for beasts to practice, and she really did it. This old man also experimented with his pet, and it really worked. So today, this old man would like to give a reward to her as promised, and introduce all of you to a new pill that this old man has produced."
Yang Song then put his hand into his pocket and took out two delicate boxes. Then, he called Yang Mei'er over and gave one box to her.
"Thank you, grandpa!" Then she tiptoed and tried to give Yang Song a kiss. Although she did not know what kind of pill it was in the box, she knew that grandpa would not disappoint her at all.
After Yang Mei'er went back, Yang Song smiled and put the other box on the table, and opened the box to let everyone see the pill inside the box.
When the box was opened, everyone was stunned.
A burst of refreshing smell appeared and hit everyone's noses. Just smelling this scent, everyone felt as if they were being washed inside out.
Most people here were martial artists, so when they smelled this scent, they were extremely shocked.
"Father, what kind of pill is this?" Yang Haodong, who was closest to Yang Song, asked in shock.
"What is this godly pill, father?" Yang Haonan asked excitedly.
"Dad, what is this pill's name?"
"Grandpa, is this delicate and transparent marble really a pill?"Yang Song waited until the noise subsided down before he smiled and spoke.
"The name of this pill is called Washing Marrow Pill. This old man got the formula of this pill by chance when he was young. After so long, this old man finally successfully refined it."
Hearing this bullshit from Yang Song, everyone did not feel it was a lie at all. Because their old patriarch was really that awesome sometime. They just could not wait to hear the next thing that Yang Song would say about the pill.
Yang Song saw everyone's enthusiasm and said, "This Washing Marrow Pill, as its name implies, is a pill that will expel impurity in your body. However, the most sacred effect of this pill is that after taking it, your talent will be greatly increased. If an ordinary person takes it, he will directly become a martial artist, no matter how trash his talent is. When a martial artist takes it, it allows him to ignore the bottleneck and advance further. However, the effect it has on the same person will continue to halve with the amount of use."
Boom!
The information of this pill was like a boulder falling into a calm lake.
Everyone including those young children were shocked to the extreme.
An ordinary person would become a martial artist directly after taking it?
One's talent would be increased?
It allowed a martial artist to ignore the bottleneck?
What kind of godly pill was this? Was their old man's luck so awesome that he could pick up such a heavenly pill formula?
Such a pill could only be seen in fantasy novels, if there was really this kind of pill in the world, then martial arts would be as many as dogs already, and people wouldn't have to be afraid of fighting against the abyss at all.
Older generations of the Yang Family breathed rapidly and their eyes became hot when they looked at the transparent pill that was sitting quietly inside the delicate box.
Younger generations only thought that this pill was awesome and could allow them to become stronger. However, the older generations knew that if this kind of pill was to be taken out and exposed to the outside world, it would undoubtedly create a monstrous wave in the entire planet.
If this kind of pill could be mass-produced, then their Yang Family would surely become the richest family in the entire world for sure.
However, they also knew that this pill was not purely just a treasure, but a weapon at the same time.
Unless the Yang Family was super strong, otherwise, if this pill was taken out, they were afraid that their Yang Family would perish even before they could enjoy the glory of being the richest family.
They did not doubt the credibility of what Yang Song had said the slightest, their old man would not joke in this kind of meeting at all.
Seeing everyone's ever-changing expressions, Yang Song smiled and said, "This old man believes that you know what kind of wave this pill will produce if it is out. It can be a treasure that will make our family super rich, and it can also be a sinister weapon that will make our family turn into nothingness."
"Therefore, this old man has no plan to publicize it, for the time being, not until our family is strong enough repel threats from all sides. However, it does not mean that we can't make use of this pill now at all. This old man is currently trying to reduce the great effect of this pill and sell it."
"This old man also knows that all you want to have this pill too, but it's currently not enough for all of you. This old man only has nine pills now. So next, if you want this pill, prove that you're worthy of it. Like Mei'er, she did the impossible."
Yang Song then looked at Yang Haodong as he took out a notebook and gave it to him.
"Haodong, you are responsible for taking this technique that Mei'er created to the National Martial Arts Guild and ask them to verify this technique. Remember, the name of the creator is Yang Mei'er."
Yang Haodong took the book cautiously and nodded seriously, "I understand, father."
Yang Song turned his gaze to Yang Haonan, then to Gong Xueqing who was sitting next to him, before he took out a piece of paper and handed it over, "Xueqing, you take this paper and try to buy all the things on there as much as possible, if you need more money, just inform this old man."
Gong Xueqing took a brief look at the list and nodded, "I understand, dad."
After that, Yang Song asked everyone about their personal works and the meeting lasted for two full hours before everyone dispersed and went back homes respectively with uncontrollable excitement and endless expectations.

As the refreshing morning of the next day arrived, Grassynovel was launched.
Yang Song also made a post on social media.
"Hello friends, Grassynovel is online, you can either go to the website to register an account to read or download the app software on your phones and tablets directly. Gentle reminder: everything is 88% off, some novels will also be free for a limited time. Some old classic novels will also be free to read forever. Aye, don't idle here anymore, go read novels on Grassynovel now!"
As soon as this post came, many Yang Song's followers immediately saw it and hit the like button. Countless comments and shares also took place.Lei Hong was a rich second-generation with countless money to spend every day. However, though rich, he still couldn't do anything about his super average talent that was not suitable for practicing martial arts.
He was 25 years old this year, but he was only a 2nd Tier Warrior martial artist. Fortunately, he was the only child in his family, his parents and grandparents indulged in him very much. But it was a blessing to those elders that Lei Hong was a sensible child and didn't have a character like other spoiled young masters.
Since young, Lei Hong's only dream was to become a powerful martial artist like those seniors and go to the abyss to temper himself.
But reality was that cruel, even if he wanted to go to the abyss, his parents would not allow. It was no different from finding death.
And Lei Hong also understood this, so it was not hard to convince him.
So coupled with various reasons, Lei Hong became an otaku who liked to read martial arts novels in his room all day long.
After not long of reading novels, Lei Hong also made a name for himself. As long as a novel was good, Lei Hong would give rewards generously. Hence, before long, Lei Hong even got to know some editors, famous authors and even became a social media influencer himself.
Recently, Lei Hong was following a novel called Battle Through the Paradise.
At first, Lei Hong was skeptical about this novel, thinking that the settings and plot were too weird. However, before he knew it, the more he read, the more he felt that he didn't read enough.
The writing styles, the plot, the world background, especially the main character Xi Yan, made Lei Hong like this novel to death.
Equally, Lei Hong became the number one top fan of this novel.
Every day, Lei Hong's priority as soon as he opened his eyes was to check for the new chapters of this novel.
Today, he opened the Runningnovel app as usual, however, when he tapped on Battle Through the Paradise book, he found that no chapters were found.
"What's happening?"
He also tried to restart his network thinking that his internet was slow, but as a result, when he asked his friends five minutes later, the other party also encountered the same issue.
Finally, he and the other fans of Battle Through the Paradise came to a conclusion, "The author deleted his chapters!"
As for why this godly author deleted his book from the site, no one knew, the author himself also did not say anything.
At the same time, as Lei Hong closed the Runningnovel app and opened UU and was about to make a post to vent his grievance, his friend suddenly sent a message to him.
"Brother Hong, Battle Through the Paradise has been relocated to Grassynovel, hurry up and download its app! I found so many godly novels that don't lose to Battle Through the Paradise at all! Hurry up!"
Seeing this message, Lei Hong did not doubt its authenticity at all. He hurriedly searched for the app and download it.
A few minutes later, Lei Hong finished registering the account and found his favorite book. He was also surprised to see that the original free book was actually contracted in this side.
But earlier, Lei Hong also saw a lot of interesting novels. So feeling curious, he tapped on a novel and read the synopsis.
"Synopsis of Defying the Heaven: Mythic Mountain, Heaven's End Cliff, the most dangerous of Blue Cloud Continent's five deadly areas. Heaven's End Cliff base was known as the Cemetery of Death.
Over the years, numerous people had fallen off this cliff. None of them, even the strongest sword cultivator, Nine Azure Sword Sovereign, whose power could cut off the mountain, fill the sea, and pierce the heavens, had been able to return alive.
However, a boy that was being chased by countless immortal cultivators because he alone held a heavenly treasure jumped off the cliff, but instead of dying, he woke up in the body of a boy with the same name in another continent!
This is the story of a boy wielding the Heaven Closing Seal, cultivating the strength to oppose the heaven and earth, a lord overlooking the ten-thousand realms and thirty-two heavens!"
Just reading this synopsis alone, Lei Hong felt that the hairs on his body stood upright, admiring the impressiveness and the way the author portrayed the short synopsis.
However, there were still something that Lei Hong felt puzzled and incredible about the synopsis.
"What is this 'immortal cultivator'? Sword cultivator? And this sword cultivator can cut off the mountain, fill the sea, and pierce the heaven? Even a Grandmaster martial artist can't do something like this, right?"
Although this word was quite foreign to Lei Hong, Lei Hong still felt that the so-called "cultivator" must be awesome.
So without delay, Lei Hong added the novel into his collection. Looking at the content of the novel, he found that there were 140 chapters waiting for him to read and each chapter was 88% off at that.
However, Lei Hong was not in a hurry to read it at all. He looked at the many novels on this site excitedly, preparing to add all of them into his collection.In the comment area under Yang Song's post, although there were many comments, most people were only showing supports and calling out those black fans who were insulting Yang Song previously.
Suddenly, a few new comments suddenly appeared and attracted attention.
"Damn, there are so many godly novels! Even Battle Through the Paradise has moved to Grassynovel! Elder Yang really did not lie to us!"
"God-level novels, there are so many god-level novels! I'm idling here anymore, I'm back to read those amazing novels!"
"Salute to Elder Yang! I hope to sell my organs to give you the rewards!"…
While those people were excited and happy to read novels on Yang Song's site, people at Runningnovel company were depressed to the extreme.
At this moment, in the meeting room.
A slightly chubby man with a pair of reading glasses was sitting in the main seat and his face was very ugly from frowning.
After a while, the chubby man sighed slightly and said, "How is the data now?"
At the end of the meeting table, a technician was operating his laptop. Hearing his boss' question, he paused his hand and stood up, "Boss, the amount of active readers has dropped again. It's only 7.9 million now."
Originally, the average amount of active users per day was 15 million. However, in just more than one hour after Grassynovel was launched, their site's active users dropped sharply from 15 million to 13 million, and now, it was even more jaw-dropping, there were only 7.9 million active users now.
Hearing this answer, the chubby man's face became even uglier, "What is the situation of that website now?"
The technician looked at the screen of his laptop and swallowed his saliva, then said, "From what I see, their flow of traffic is normal, and there are at least ten of thousands of new readers each minute. Most of our readers left our site and went to that site just to read Battle Through the Paradise. This is also normal, because their advertisements are everywhere."
"Damn, even if they advertise everywhere, how could they gather so many readers in just more than one hour? Our company has to stand in the wind and rain for several years before we could become what we are now. Are their novels so good to the point of making people fall in love with them immediately?" The chubby man yelled angrily.
When Grassynovel was first launched more than an hour ago, he snorted in disdain and felt that there was no way a newly emerged website like that could explode in popularity, hence, he even disdained to check out the novels on Grassynovel.
Now, he felt like he had to see for himself if those novels were that good.
Several minutes later.
Rumble!
The chubby man suddenly got up from his chair and his face revealed shock.
"How could this be?"
"T-this… how is this possible? Are authors of that Grassynovel so talented?"
Initially, everyone was having a meeting, so they turned off their phones. Now, seeing the reaction of their boss, they also took out their phones to check it out.
A few minutes later, one exclamation after another resounded in the meeting room.
"Damn, e-each novel in this site could create a new genre for itself!"
"Look, even Battle Through the Paradise has been contracted too!"
"Huh? We tried to contact him for so long, he didn't even bother to respond to us, but now he moves to there? Did he forget where his popularity came from? What a white-eyed wolf!"
"Could it be that author of Battle Through the Paradise was someone that the Yang Family hired to begin with and he borrowed our site to gain popularity?"
For a while, everyone started cursing with an ugly face.

No matter how exciting or depressing the situation of other people was, Yang Song did not seem to care the slightest.
At this time, Xiao Laoxu and Xiao Laofei had already finished evolving.
Species: Golden-Eyed Mouse
Combat Power: 2nd Tier Soldier monster
Talent: hole drilling (100), treasure hunting (100), wisdom (75), comprehension (35), language (77)
Xiao Laoxu's wisdom value went up by fifteen, comprehension value went up by ten, and language value went up by seven.
It did not seem lot but it was better than nothing.
Species: Undead Steel Scavenger
Combat Power: Quasi-Tier 3 General
Talent: steel (86), undead (99), comprehension (30), wisdom (50), language (30), transformation (40)
For Xiao Laofei's changes, Yang Song was quite satisfied.
Regarding Xiao Laofei's new talent, Yang Song also asked him about it and let him try activating this "transformation" talent.
It was indeed within Yang Song's expectation, the "transformation" talent allowed Xiao Laofei to change the size of his body at will.
However, at the current time, the biggest size he could transform to was four meters. As for the smallest size, it was the size of a small chick.
Yang Song easily knew that it had something with the talent value. Now, the value was 40, and the biggest size was four meters. So if the value of "transformation" talent reached 100, Xiao Laofei would be able to become as big as 10 meters high, right?
Just thinking about it made Yang Song quite excited.
After tasting the effect of the Washing Marrow Pill, Xiao Laofei worshiped Yang Song even more. Although this old devil, no, his master, was quite evil before, his methods were undeniably godly and the things he possessed were undoubtedly sacred.
Hence, the bits and pieces of hatred against Yang Song that Xiao Laofei secretly bred before had now disappeared completely. Now, there were only awe, admiration, and reverence.
Today, Yang Song planned to hire some app developers to develop the app for his family.
After thinking for a while, Yang Song decided to call no one else but Zhang Qinqin.
"Little Qin, after the ponderation, this old man needs your help with something."
"Oh, what is it, dad? Just tell me, I will do it," Zhang Qinqin readily agreed without hesitation. Since it was her elder who ordered her, how could she refuse?
"Good. This old man wants the developers in Grassynovel to develop the contribution app for our family, you can just give more money to them."
"I see, this is very easy, but it will be ready in a few days because our company is currently…"
Yang Song cut her words directly, "This old man knows, no hurry, you can just take it slowly."
"Okay, dad. Is there anything else?"
"How is the website going now?"
"It's pretty good, we have millions of readers now."
If others heard this, they would vomit blood for sure.
You call this pretty good? This is obviously very awesome, alright? Getting millions of stable readers on your first day, who else could achieve this feat?
But Yang Song was not surprised about this, he felt that it was very normal, "I see, then let's end the call here."
After putting the phone down, Yang Song got up from the chair and went to sit down cross-legged on his futon.
Initially, Yang Song had planned that after he got the Basic Manual Talisman, he would go to take revenge against the Li Family in Martial City.
But with his cautious heart, Yang Song still did not go rashly.
Since the Li Family could gain a foothold and such a good position in Martial City, then their background must be not simple too.
Martial City was on a whole level bigger than Tong City, each top family there wasn't just rich in wealth, but also rich in strength. To mess around in Marital City, Yang Song felt that his 5th stage Foundation Building cultivation base was simply not enough.
In the entire C Country, although there were only a few Grandmaster martial artists, it did not mean that Master martial artists were scarce at all. On the contrary, even though it couldn't be said to be many, there was also a considerable amount of high-level Master martial artists.
Yang Song's current strength could rival a 6th Tier Master martial artist, and if he used the talismans, he could even contend with a 7th Tier Master martial artist. But from the previous intense battle, Yang Song got a new understanding of the martial arts society.
Final Booster, this was a sinister drug that could allow a 6th Tier Master to leap the big boundary and become an 8th Tier Master directly, though it was temporary, it was still a genuine 8th Tier Master.
So if Yang Song encountered such a monster again, he was confident to escape away, but that would be not easy.
Hence, Yang Song postponed the plan to attack the Li Family for the time being.
With that said, Yang Song's up the minute task was… upgrade his cultivation base in a fast but most stable way possible.
As for how it could be done, Yang Song had already thought about it distinctly. Without any delay, Yang Song called out the system and inspected his own attribute.
Name: Yang Song
Combat Power: 5th Stage Foundation Building Realm
Talent: literature (50), music (50), immortal cultivation (50), alchemy (100), charm (100), language (50), exercises (80)
Talent to be Opened: None
Assignable Points: 40
All other Yang Song's talents were upgraded, but the immortal cultivation talent was still the same. So the difficulty of changing one's own talent in cultivation could be imagined how hard it was.
Immortal cultivation was no different from going against the heaven, so if this kind of talent could be increased so naturally and innately, then it wouldn't be called going against the heaven anymore.
For Yang Song's current situation, it seemed that everything was smooth sailing, but in fact, Yang Song knew that when he broke through to the higher realms, that would be the real showdown between him and the heaven.
Right now, with the help of the system, Yang Song would increase his talent in immortal cultivation.
Then, without any hesitation, Yang Song commanded the system in his mind.
"System, add all the points to immortal cultivation!"
[Ding, done!]
Yang Song looked at his own attribute and saw that the immortal cultivation became 90 in value, and his Assignable Points became zero.
But Yang Song did not regret it. If he became powerful, then it would be only easier to complete the system tasks, hence, he would also get rewards much faster.
It was just that, so far, the system had never given him any Assignable Point as a reward.
With his immortal cultivation talent became 90 in value, Yang Song, without idling any longer, directly took out the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower and the Yellow Spring Shell Bead, closed his eyes, and began to cultivate.
As expected, there was indeed a change.
First of all, Yang Song felt completely different as soon as he started cultivating. If it was before, when Yang Song had just upgraded his cultivation base, if he continued to cultivate again a few days later, he would feel a slight restraint in his body.
But now, it had not been long after he became a 5th stage Foundation Building Realm cultivator, so there should be some restraints inside, but there was obviously none. Yang Song felt that even if he finished upgrading his cultivation base this time, it wouldn't be a problem to continue to upgrade his realm.
The second change was that his cultivation speed. Before, with the Yellow Spring Shell Bead alone, Yang Song's speed was two times faster than cultivating normally.
But now, the speed was directly multiplied by four, resulting in eight times the speed compared to using nothing to boost the speed of cultivation.
Spiritual Energy gushed out of the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower frantically and entered Yang Song's body, revolving around inside his body, before turning into True Energy and stayed in his Dantian.
With such a crazy speed, the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower also changed. The originally bright petals began to whither bit by bit, and its bright color also began to turn dimmer gradually.
Xiao Laoxu and Xiao Laofei who were not far away from Yang Song were also disturbed by this great change in the secret room.
The two guys gazed towards their master and couldn't help retreating to the corner, because a great suction force manifested around Yang Song's body. They felt that if they dared to stay close to their master, their energy would be sucked dry for sure.
The True Energy inside Yang Song's body began to rise like a great flood.
Before long, the great flood rose higher and higher, and finally it touched the invisible barrier that restricted its rise.
The instinct inside Yang Song's body also increased and the speed became even faster.
Bang!
A loud sound reverberated throughout Yang Song's body, the invisible barrier burst open, and Yang Song's realm grew higher again.
Report chapter
Right after Yang Song broke through to the 6th stage of the Foundation Building Realm, the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower completely withered and became a piece useless plant.
Yang Song looked at the dry and shriveled plant in his hand and sighed slightly.
If this secret room wasn't so enclosed, maybe Yang Song would continue to break through.
But the problem was not big anyway, with Yang Song's current strength, he had the confidence to beat an 8th Tier Master martial artist if he were to use all his cards.
Actually, as soon as Yang Song became a Foundation Building Realm cultivation, he could fly in the sky with the help of flying sword and his strength would also be boosted if there was a flying sword.
It was a pity that there was no flying sword, that kind of magical tool was not available here, the only one who had it was the system.
Yang Song was still not in a hurry to go out, he closed his eyes and got familiar with his new strength.It was eight o'clock in the evening, the moon had already risen, and the sky had already become very dark.
In the secret room, Yang Song opened his eyes and let out a breath. The breath that came out of his nostrils created a gush of wind slightly, making some rustling noises.
"Let's go out to take a breath of fresh air," Yang Song got up and left the secret room.
When staying in the secret room for too long, even if Yang Song was a cultivator, it was still depressing for him.
Yang Song came to the living room and made tea for himself. But just as he was about to drink tea, he felt that something was wrong and gazed at the doors.
Then, with a flick of finger, invisible True Energy was shot out and opened the doors. Only then did Yang Song drink the tea in his hand.
Inside the house, it was brightly lit, but a pity that there was only Yang Song alone and thereby made the atmosphere very silent.
However, Yang Song did not mind anyway. He was not like before, he was a cultivator now, and as a Foundation Building Realm cultivator, even though his strength was more or less the same as that of a Master martial artist, his lifespan was different from them.
It was a bit late for him to become a cultivator, but he could still live for another hundred years without a problem. And this was the advantage of a cultivator.
A peak stage Master martial artist could only live up to 150 or 160 years old at most, or 170 with the help of external things.
As for Grandmaster martial artist, he could live up to 280 or 300 years old depending on their realm.
In a sense, a Grandmaster martial artist might have the same strength as a Core Formation Realm cultivator, but the cultivator had more advantages in battle.
A Grandmaster could also condense energy and store it in his body, but it was called "Internal Energy" rather than "True Energy", and these two types of energy greatly differed each other.
Internal Energy could indeed prolong lifespan and enhance combat power, but that was just it.
True Energy nourished the internal organs of the human body and could also be used in a wide range of operation, and it was much more profound and purer than Internal Energy.
In the living room, only the sound of sipping tea could be heard. The wind outside was silent, and the activity of the pedestrians outside was also silent.
Yang Song frowned slightly and looked at the door. Then, the teacup in Yang Song's hand slowly floated down and rested on the table.
"Cough, friend from afar, why bother hiding yourself?" Yang Song said calmly without looking at the door.
After a few seconds, there was no still no sound, but Yang Song did not seem to really care, and said again, "You bunch don't have to hide yourselves at all, this old man has already sensed you."
"Clap, clap, clap…"
The sound of clapping hands came and a voice rang from the outside, "As expected, Mr. Yang is really not ordinary."
Immediately, several figures emerged and the person in the lead walked into the living room.
Yang Song gazed at the other party slightly and retracted his gaze back, then, he extended out his hand to take his teacup. At the same time, he said, "Well, this old man has heard Mr. Wu's name for a while now, it's really this old man's honor that you have come to visit this old man today."
That's right, the visitor was Wu Dahai, old patriarch of the Wu Family, and Wu Yonggui's father.
Hearing Yang Song calling his name so clearly, Wu Dahai paused his footstep slightly and his face was not so good.
From Yang Song's behavior, it seemed like he didn't him, a 6th Tier Master martial artist, seriously at all.
Was this old guy muddle-headed or blindly arrogant? Or he was actually very panicked inside right now but pretended to be calm?
But no matter what it was, Wu Dahai was determined to take Yang Song's life today. But he was not in a hurry either.
Wu Dahai resumed his step and walked towards the seat opposite Yang Song.
Yang Song was still that carefree and calm, and he even poured tea for Wu Dahai.
"Took you long enough to come here, huh," Yang Song chuckled.
Yang Song did not know that the assassination from the previous had something to do with Wu Dahai, but Wu Dahai's appearance in front of him was within Yang Song's expectation.
After all, Wu Dahai's precious son, Wu Yonggui, had a tug of war with him. Wu Pharmaceutical almost went bankrupt directly or indirectly because of Yang Song. Not to mention, Wu Yonggui and a few other Wu Family members died after they left the Great Energy Pill's launch.
And it led to situation where most people subconsciously pointed their fingers at the Yang Family and thought that it was the Yang Family that operated the actions behind the scene.
Yang Song guessed that because there was no evident that could prove that it was the Yang Family that did it, so the Wu Family could do nothing to the Yang Family on the bright side.
Yang Song had no intention of explaining the fact that Wu Yonggui's death had nothing to do with him, but he still felt that it was necessary to say something about this.
"Let this old man just say this, your descendants' death had nothing to do with this old man the slightest."
"Humph, of course, I know this, but it's still inseparable from you! If my son didn't go to your event, if my son didn't come to Tong City, all of it wouldn't have happened at all!" As soon as the topic of his son was involved, Wu Dahai became 'excited' all at once.
Yang Song shook his head slightly and felt that this Wu Dahai, just like his son, had a problem with his brain. His logic was not reasonable enough to even be called a 'logic' at all.
From the beginning to the end, it was their Wu Family who took the initiative to provoke the Yang Family, but the Yang Family had never done anything ruthless at all.
But when Wu Yonggui died in the middle, this old guy wanted to throw the blame on Yang Song's head based on the fact that he couldn't find the culprit behind his son's death?
What a joke! The Yang Family had never been a ruthless family, but it didn't mean that it was a turtle at all.
Yang Song sighed and out down the teacup, "It seems like you have come prepared."
It was a statement, and by saying "prepared", Yang Song referred to all kinds of preparation, including helpers, the will to never accept Yang Song's explanation, as well as the determination to never let Yang Song go.
"Oh, so you are also prepared to give your life to me, right?" Wu Dahai said arrogantly.
When he came here, he had already inquired about Yang Song's information, including his living environment and living habit.
It seemed like this Yang Song guy liked to live alone and he didn't even need bodyguards to protect him.
In Wu Dahai's opinion, Yang Song was doomed to die in his hand today. After all, there was no one other than Yang Song in this courtyard or in this house.
"It looks like you are very confident in killing me, but are you sure?" Yang Song let out a playful smile and looked at Wu Dahai.
Seeing this posture, Wu Dahai also felt a bit uneasy in his heart. But there was only Yang Song here, so what could go wrong?
Even if Yang Song was a martial artist now, he was only a 2nd Tier Warrior, what could he possibly do?
Report chapter
Feeling that the fight was about to break out, all the helpers that Wu Dahai brought immediately entered the room and closed the door.
Then, one of them with a relatively high-level martial art realm took a step forward and said arrogantly to Yang Song, "You are dead today, old thing!"
With that said, he stomped on the ground and rushed towards Yang Song with a punch.
Yang Song was still calm and composed. As the punch was about to hit him, a shadow flashed out of blue and greeted the punch.
Bang!
The person who was about to hit Yang Song made contact with the shadow and was blasted away, crashing the people behind him.
When the noise died down, everyone looked at Yang Song and was stunned.
On Yang Song's shoulder, there was a gray bird whose body was no bigger than that of a chick.
If one looked clearly, one would find that this bird was the miniature version of the scavenger.
"Caw…"
The small scavenger let out a cry no weaker than an eagle proudly.
Looking back the Yang Song's attacker earlier, his entire right arm at this moment had broken into pieces, and he seemed to have fainted from the big impact.
No one cared about him.
Everyone except Wu Dahai felt a bit tricky when seeing this little bird.
The person who went up earlier was an 8th Tier Warrior, but within one move from the little bird, his entire right arm was broken. It could be guessed that little bird had the strength no weaker than that of a 9th Tier Warrior or a 1st Tier Master.
Wu Dahai's eyes gleamed, and he looked at the little bird on Yang Song's shoulder.
"Interesting, you actually have an abyssal beast as your pet and you could even tame it? But so what, you will still die today."
Wu Dahai was not afraid of the little bird at all. That abyssal beast's strength was equivalent to that of a 1st Tier or 2nd Tier Master at most.
Wu Dahai raised his hand and extended out three fingers.
Two people with a lifeless look and a person with a hideous scar on his left eye immediately retreated and the other four people immediately went up together.
"You will die today, old thing!"
"You should be honored to die under my hand."Among the four people, one of them was a 1st Tier Master, two were 9th Tier Warriors, and the remaining one was an 8th Tier Warrior.
These people were all Wu Dahai's subordinates. Of course, Wu Dahai had more people under him, but the ones that came with him this time were all among the top power.
Wu Dahai could've brought more people, but he thought he was only dealing with Yang Song alone this time, so he only brought the top guys over.
What's more, if he brought so many people over just to deal with an old and weak man, it would seem like he was bullying the other party too much, and that would also attract unnecessary troubles.
The four guys' strengths were indeed daunting, but in Yang Song's view, it was nothing more than that.
And he believed that Xiao Laofei alone was enough to deal with them.
"Caw!"
Xiao Laofei on Yang Song's shoulder let out a cry and rushed out first this time.
Whoosh!
Bang!
The strength of a Quasi-Tier 3 General abyssal beast was in full swing entirely this time, as soon as he rushed out, the impact seemed to create a sonic boom.
While in the air, the small body also seemed to swell up a bit, his head centered straight ahead, and his white beak broke through the air.
Before the four people had time to react, a black shadow forced its body into the chest of the four guys.
The person in the front was the one to bear the brunt. Blood gushed out intensely, and a bloody hole appeared in the center of his chest.
But Xiao Laofei did not intend to stop yet. With a slight shake of his body, all the blood dropped off.
Bang, bang…
In another blink of an eye, the two 9th Tier Warriors were also killed as two bloody holes appeared on their bodies respectively.
Fortunately, the only 1st Tier Master retreated beforehand and he avoided death successfully.
"Trash!"
When the 1st Tier Master retreated, Wu Dahai scolded angrily.
However, Wu Dahai still did not go up personally. He looked at the two lifeless guys and ordered, "You two kill him for me!"
The two guys then seemed to chew something in their mouths as they stepped forward.
Immediately, their veins swelled with green color and the muscles in their bodies appeared to wriggle strangely as if countless big worms were moving inside.
After a while, their physical bodies became over two meters high, their muscles bulged intensely like a monster, and their faces became even uglier without a trace of blood.
"Final Booster?" Yang Song was surprised.
Wu Dahai was also a bit surprised by Yang Song's remark, "Haha, it seems like you are quite knowledgeable."
Yang Song gazed at Wu Dahai and chuckled, "Do you think you can deal with me by using these two mind-controlled guys?"
"What do you think? Could it be that you can deal with them?" Wu Dahai said contemptuously. From the breath that Yang Song leaked, Wu Dahai was very sure that he was a 2nd Tier Warrior martial artist. Could he be wrong?
What's more, this old thing became a martial artist not long ago, could it be that he could upgrade his strength so fast and became a Master now? This kind of thing was almost impossible. Even the strongest genius out there couldn't do this within one month.
Yang Song knew that Wu Dahai was underestimating him, and this was exactly what Yang Song wanted the most.
Wu Dahai at this time commanded, "Kill him!"
The two humanoid monsters let out a low roar and dashed over aggressively.
If the two detectives in Martial City were here, they would be surprised. Because these two guys were no one else but Lang Ping's underlings.
Yang Song raised the corner of his mouth slightly and answered Wu Dahai's question above, "I can indeed deal with them!"
With that declaration, Yang Song slapped the chair under him and also rushed out. While in the air, Yang Song put one hand behind his back and took a blue-hilted sword out of his storage space secretly.
Puff!
Two fists collided with one sword, but with Yang Song's current strength, how could these two 4th Tier Masters humanoid monsters deal with him?
The two guys' hands were cut off instantly by the sword. But they did not seem to feel any pain, on the contrary, they continued to attack Yang Song with their remaining hands.
Yang Song kicked the ground and dodged to the side. The two guys' fists also chased after Yang Song who had already dodged to the side, but Yang Song forcefully slashed his sword out.
Puff, puff!
Two big arms flew into the air and black blood sprayed all over the floor.
The two madmen's momentum reduced slightly, but they still rushed over with their mouths open, as if intending to use their mouths to attack Yang Song.
Yang Song this time did not dodge but meet the two guys head-on. The edge of the blue-hilted that was covered with True Energy was sharper and stronger than ever.
With a soft sound, Yang Song waved his sword and cut right in the mouths of the two guys.
Two incomplete heads fell to the ground and black blood spilled out without stop. But strangely, the sword in Yang Song's hand was still as clean as ever.
This time, the two crazy guys' bodies fell to the ground, motionless.
Wu Dahai and the half-blind man were stunned by the scene before them.
"You… how could it be…" Wu Dahai was very surprised that he was almost speechless.
But Yang Song did not intend to say anything, he continued to rush over to deal with Wu Dahai and his remaining two confidants.
Yang Song was not afraid of Wu Dahai and his team. As soon as Wu Dahai appeared not long ago, Yang Song had activated his Eyes of Insight and knew Wu Dahai's martial art realm.
He was a 6th Tier Master martial artist, technically the same as Yang Song. But again, as a cultivator, Yang Song's strength was innately stronger than martial artists of the same level in terms of the realm.
As for the man with the big scar, he was a 5th Tier Master, one level weaker than Wu Dahai.
At the same time, Yang Song secretly took out a few talismans from his storage space and activated all of them all at once.
The distance between Yang Song and Wu Dahai was several meters away from each other, but Yang Song deliberately lowered down his speed so as to be able to activate the talismans in time.
Strength Talisman, Iron Skin Talisman, Speed Talisman, and Poison Talisman all showed their might at this moment.
Yang Song's slow speed suddenly increased. Then, the Poison Talisman flew towards Wu Dahai and exploded.
A mass of green mist appeared from the place of explosion and enveloped Wu Dahai and his group.
Yang Song's strength gushed up and his sword darted towards Wu Dahai who was in the green mist.
Wu Dahai felt the crisis and escaped away timely, resulting in the close call between him and death.
But even so, Wu Dahai had already breathed in a good amount of green mist. The effect of the poison took shape immediately as Wu Dahai's fingernails started tuning black and lines of blood flowed out of his nostrils.
"Not good, retreat from this place!" Within that friction, Wu Dahai shouted and escaped with his underlings.
Bang!
He kicked the doors and rushed out.
It was a pity that Yang Song had already decided to take their lives today, "Humph, since you're already here, then stay here forever!"
Bang, bang…
This time, all of Yang Song's strength was in full play. Wherever Yang Song passed, the sturdy floor would crack.
Wu Dahai did not dare to look back. He initially thought that everything would go very smoothly and in a fast manner. But he did not expect that the old man of the Yang Family to hide so deeply.
He was actually a 7th Tier Master!
This was the only explanation that Wu Dahai could come up with. Only a 7th Tier Master could deal with him. And looking at Yang Song's power, he seemed to be in this realm for a long time. This guy hid really professionally.
But unfortunately, Yang Song was already very fast to begin with and coupled with the Speed Talisman, it only took a few seconds to catch up with Wu Dahai. What's more, Wu Dahai and his remaining two underlings were already injured by the Poison Talisman.
The blue-hilted sword fell on their backs ruthlessly, taking away their lives, and the three died with their eyes open wide as if they didn't expect that the seemingly weak old man who had just become a martial artist was actually a great hidden master…
Report chapter
When the battle was over, Yang Song cleaned up the corpses and blood by collecting them into his storage space.
However, when Yang Song picked up the severed arms of the two monsters who were transformed by Final Boosters, he noticed a strange tattoo on their arms.
It was a black head of a wolf, the wolf had its mouth opened ferociously as if it was going to bite something off.
Other than the two guys, Wu Dahai and the others didn't have anything weird on their bodies.
When Yang Song went back to the living room, he looked at the damaged floor and furniture, and shook his head.
"It's a bit troublesome."
Yang Song would not know how to explain it to his children if they were to come here and see the mess.
"Well, let's just call the repairmen tomorrow."The next morning, Yang Song got up very early and called the repairmen to fix and replace all the damaged things in his living room right away.
Two hours later, everything in the living room was as good as new.
Nowadays, Yang Song didn't need to eat food to regain energy at all, as long as he had True Energy in his body, all was good. And this was the advantage that a martial artist didn't have.
Next, Yang Song planned to go back to the White Dragon Mountain to find his secret cave and cultivate.
Half an hour later, Yang Song and his two pets arrived at the cave in the White Dragon Mountain.
After putting the two pets down, Yang Song looked at them and said, "Remember, this cave is our secret place that cannot be told to anyone."
Xiao Laoxu and Xiao Laofei nodded their heads seriously.
Next, Yang Song removed the big stone that erected at the entrance of the cave easily and entered the cave.
After that, Yang Song moved the big stone over and covered the entrance again, but this time, he deliberately left a slight opening in case the two little guys wanted to leave.
When Yang Song and the two little guys arrived at the main space inside the cave, they were amazed by the ethereal scenery that resembled the starry sky.
Yang Song took out several talismans and threw them casually into the air.
Then, all the talismans lit up and flew to different directions and embedded themselves on the walls of the cave silently.
The light on the talismans became brighter and finally stayed at a good level. The cave finally had some light, and it revealed another atmosphere.
If it was the starry sky previously, then it was the clear day now.
With everything set in place, Yang Song found a relatively clean place and sat down to cultivate.
When the Spiritual Energy was absorbed over, Yang Song felt that it was as he had guessed in the previous time. Even though he had just become a 6th stage Foundation Building Realm cultivator yesterday, it was not a problem to continue to cultivate for another breakthrough today.
Except that this time, Yang Song found that his Dantian became much larger and it would take several days to make another breakthrough.
But in fact, it also attributed to the fact that the psionic energy or Spiritual Energy in this martial art world was not so rich. If it were richer, then Yang Song was confident to make a breakthrough by tomorrow.
Spiritual Energy gradually entered Yang Song's body and revolved in a fast manner, and finally became True Energy and stayed in the Dantian area.
The two little guys saw this and did not want to stay idle either, they also started practising the techniques that Yang Song made for them.Different from Yang Song's tranquil atmosphere inside the White Dragon Abode, on this day, it was quite lively in Martial City.
Today was the first day that the international chess competition started.
Martial City, Billion Suns Exhibition Centre.
Billion Suns Centre was a big facility that could accommodate a variety of events, making it ideal for all forms of conferences, concerts, gala dinners, exhibitions, product launches, award ceremonies, and many more.
This Billion Suns Exhibition Centre only existed in first-rate cities in C Country, and Martial City was exactly one of the first-rate cities.
Chess was also one of the most popular games in this world. It attracted a large number of dedicated players and fans, ranging from kids to old people, but old people was in majority.
Several chess tournaments were often organized in different parts of the world. For the purpose of glory, thrill, and sometimes even money, these tournaments grew to its gigantic size now so that it was held on an international level host some of the most brilliant minds in the world.
In a big hall of the Billion Suns Exhibition Centre, countless tables with numerous chessboards were organized next to each other densely.
At this time, the competition had already started and many players were battling against each other, hoping to win their opponents and go to the next round.
Participants were listed according to their ratings, and those without ratings were added to the end of the list in alphabetical order. Then the strongest played against the weakest as the two halves of the draw having been established according to the method of 1-100, 1-99, 1-98 etc., for example.
Table no. 88.
Yang Mingfei was currently sitting and looking at the black and white chess pieces in front of him with a bored expression.
His opponent was a middle-aged man with scarce hair.
Currently, the middle-aged man was gulping his saliva from time to time and wiping the sweat on his forehead every now and then.
On the chessboard, there were only a few chess pieces left, but the white chess pieces were noticeably more on the board.
A few seconds later, the middle-aged finally reluctantly pressed on the clock near him and moved his black pawn to another position.
Yang Mingfei pressed the clock near his hand slightly and moved his white bishop over casually.
Then, Yang Mingfei 'ate' the black pawn of the middle-aged man expressionlessly.
The middle-aged man revealed a pained expression and finally raised his hands with a sigh, "I surrender!"Just like that, the day ended, and Yang Song opened his eyes slowly.
His realm of cultivation was still the same, and now, he prepared to go back home.
When Yang Song arrived home, it was already 5 in the evening, and just in time, he met Su Xiaotuan who was sitting and doing a live broadcast near the entrance of his courtyard.
Su Xiaotuan immediately stood up and chased after Yang Song vigorously.
"Elder Yang, I haven't seen you for several days, and your temperament seems to have changed again. By the way, Elder, when will there be a new pill suitable for all genders and age to eat?"
Actually, this was a question that netizens asked Su Xiaotuan to ask Yang Song.
Yang Song smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, there will be a new pill that will surprise all of you. This old man guarantees that it will be a hundred times better than Great Energy Pill."
Su Xiaotuan's eyes lit up and did not Yang Song's words at all. As for the netizens in Su Xiaotuan's live broadcast room, some of them believed Yang Song, and some just sprayed Yang Song for talking big.
"By the way, why haven't seen Elder go to the park to exercise these days?" Su Xiaotuan asked curiously.
"This old man doesn't have a lot of free time recently."Not long after, Yang Song finally closed the door of his house and went to his secret room.
But as soon as he entered the secret room, Yang Song frowned slightly, because there was a smell of blood.
Yang Song looked everywhere around the room and didn't find any animals or trace of blood, so where did it come from?
He also went to look at the hole that Xiao Laoxu had dug and didn't see anything either.
Finally, Yang Song called Xiao Laoxu over, "Do you smell the scent of blood?"
Xiao Laoxu's cute nose move slightly and his eyes glanced around. A few seconds later, he immediately rushed to a peculiar carpet and said, "Squeak, Master, here!"
When Yang Song saw the chair and the carpet underneath, he finally thought of something and rushed over without delay.
Yang Song then removed the chair and carpet swiftly and revealed the sight underneath, then, he was stunned.
Xiao Laoxu and Xiao Laofei also looked over and were stunned too.
This was the location that Xiao Laoxu had dug before and it was the entrance of the abyss. To prevent accidents, Yang Song also reinforced the entrance of the abyss and set up many strong blades around.
And currently, a strange beast with brown fur all over its body was stuck to the many blades in a gruesome manner. It was dead at the moment, but its body was cut and some inner organs protruded outside with scarlet blood still tickling down.
Report chapter
Yang Song took a deep breath and went down into the hole. Then, he opened the Eyes of Insight and looked at the furry brown monster that was similar to a brown bear in appearance.
Species: Bone Eating Bear
Combat Power: Tier 2 Soldier
Talent: bone-eating (88), comprehension (10), wisdom (10), language (9)
This Bone Eating Bear really had seven points similar to the normal brown bear, however, the glaring difference was that its mouth was very wide and those sharp teeth were completely visible.
Seeing this, Yang Song did not doubt that this monster bear would really be able to crush any bones.
"Fortunately, it's only a Tier 2 Soldier, if it was a high-level abyssal beast…" Well, if it was a high-level beast, maybe it would've broken out of the trap and come outside. But that wouldn't be a problem either, Yang Song could defeat any abyssal beast with the strength up to Tier 6 or possibly Tier 7 General.
With a thought, Yang Song stored all the blades around the entrance of the abyss, making the Bone Eating Bear fall down into the puddle of red blood under that.
After that, Yang Song called Xiao Laofei over and ordered him to take the Bone Eating Bear away.
"Caw, Master, can I eat it?" Xiao Laofei asked Yang Song with eyes brightened.
Yang Song nodded casually.
Xiao Laofei cried cheerfully and transformed his body to become bigger. Immediately after that, he picked up the Bone Eating Bear corpse with his powerful beak and left the hole hurriedly.
Yang Song then took out a talisman and urged it slightly. The yellow talisman lit up, transformed into a ball of light, and covered all the blood on the ground. Within a few seconds, all the blood disappeared and the light converged.
The atmosphere inside the secret room became normal like before, there was no foul smell of blood anymore.
With that, Yang Song's thought moved again and all the blades appeared and embedded themselves around the entrance of the abyss for another time.
But looking at the sharp blades, Yang Song still did not feel safe.
"This time, only one Tier 2 Soldier came out, what if high-level abyssal beasts come in a group in the future? That will really be a disaster."
Yang Song's heart was heavy, and he thought of the future danger. He really had to think of ways to prevent abyssal beasts from coming out of the entrance in the future.
"The best offense is the best defense, I can upgrade my cultivation as soon as possible, however, it's still far from being enough."
In the level of abyssal beasts, there were Soldier tier, General tier, and King tier.
However, there was a special name to be called between the General and the King rank, and that was "Great General".
In other words, a Great General was just a name only, and it didn't represent any realm. However, a Great General had a very special privilege in different domains inside the abyss world.
And that privilege was, a Great General was actually a King's personal confidant and had the ability to command thousands of abyssal beasts including General-tier beasts, but it of course still needed the consent of its king to do that.
So to sum it up, in terms of strength, there were only three following ranks, Soldier, General, and King. But a Great General was just a special title bestowed to a high-level General-tier beast by a King.
This was the reason why Yang Song's heart felt so heavy. A King-tier abyssal beast rarely appeared, but the chance of a Great General that had the ability to command troops of abyssal beasts appearing was many times greater.
In a hundred thousand times, the chance of a King appearing was one or two. But a Great General could appear several times in 10,000 times.
Yang Song was afraid of this possibility the most. Therefore, upgrading his cultivation base alone was not enough. Even if Yang Song was a Core Formation Realm cultivator, he still wondered if he could fight against thousands of abyssal beasts.
However, with the system in hand, there might be a miracle. From what Yang Song had read in his previous life, there were many methods available for a cultivator to use.
For example, array formations, powerful treasure, spells, puppets, and so on. But the problem was that Yang Song could only be said to be a newcomer regarding immortal cultivation.
Currently, except for his pure physical strength, the ability to command True Energy, his ability to under combat techniques, and his ability to draw basic rank talismans, Yang Song did not have any useful methods as a true cultivator.
Until now, Yang Song did not even have a proper martial technique unique to immortal cultivators at all. He only knew the martial arts of this world which did not have anything to do with True Energy and the likes.
It was not until at this moment did Yang Song find out that he was still very weak.
Just as Yang Song was sighing in depression, a system prompt appeared.
[Ding, congratulations to the Host for ranking first among all the families in the area under the jurisdiction of Martial City.]
[Ding, congratulations to the Host for obtaining a 'Box of Rewards'.]
Yang Song was sluggish for a moment before his expression changed, and he became excited in an instant.
This feeling was quite great. It was like he was trying to find fire in the forest, but a heavenly being suddenly descended and gifted him a lighter.
It did not take long for Yang Song to calm and he thought of a question, "Just what made my family's ranking go up so fast?"
Feeling extremely curious, Yang Song opened the family influence screen and inspected it.
On the family influence screen, there was a list of Yang Song's descendants' names including his daughters-in-law's.
On the list, the first name to appear was… Yang Mingfei. Yes, Yang Mingfei had the most influence point among all the members.
As for Yang Song himself, his name was in the second place.
Yang Song clicked on Yang Mingfei's name and the doubt he had was solved in an instant.
It turned out that Yang Mingfei participated in the international chess competition that was taking place in Martial City today, and he became one of the top ten dark horses. And tomorrow, the top ten participants would play against each other to determine the "Number One" title holder.
And if Yang Mingfei won the first place tomorrow, he would have to play against other winners from other cities in the entire C Country. And if Yang Mingfei became the number one chess player in C Country, he would be able to continue to play against other top players from other countries as well.
Just becoming the top ten players had already gained many family influence values for the Yang Family, if this guy were to beat his opponents all the way and become a top play globally…
"Hehe, just thinking about it makes me thrilled already."
As long as Yang Mingfei could continue to win, the Yang Family's ranking would continue to rise and the system would issue more rewards.
Yang Song swiftly got up from the hole and went to his futon. Then, he tentatively shouted in his mind, "System, open the Box of Rewards."
Immediately after that, in Yang Song's head, several system prompts appeared in an instant.
[Congratulations to the Host, your storage space became 10 times bigger. Storage space: 50 cubic meters. Used to store and/or collect objects. Can be used within 10 meters.]
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining 100 Assignable Points. Assignable Points: 100]
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Sky rank sword technique – Ten Thousand Returning Swords.]
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Sky rank defensive formation – Innate Mirror Formation.]
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Sky rank treasure – Blue Bolt Sword.]
There were a total of five rewards, and each reward satisfied Yang Song to the extreme. Just when he was thinking about the fact that he lacked a proper combat technique, a sword technique was rewarded to him.
For Yang Song the three final rewards should be the most useful to him now.
Yang Song plunged his consciousness into his storage space and found that it had indeed become many times bigger. It was no longer a "mini storage space", it should be a standard storage space now.
Inside the storage space, Yang Song saw two slender jade slips. But what attracted Yang Song the most was the blue sword near that.
The sword was all shiny blue. Its hilt was designed to look very noble and the sword body was decorated with my mysterious characters. However, the most eye-catching thing about this sword was… there were cracks of blue lightning appearing on the sword from time to time.
Seeing the sword, Yang Song's heart bubbled up with excitement again. Yang Song did not know what the so-called "Sky rank" represented, but since the sword could manifest lightning, Yang Song was very sure that it should also be a good treasure in the cultivation world.
Report chapter
With just a thought, the Blue Bolt Sword was taken out of the storage space by Yang Song and it was still floating horizontally in front of Yang Song.
Yang Song stretched out his hand and wanted to hold the sword in the hilt. But as Yang Song was about to touch it, a mini crack of blue lightning appeared and repelled Yang Song's hand away.
Yang Song hurriedly retracted his hand back and still felt a tingling pain.
"System, what's the matter with this? Why can't I hold this sword?" Yang Song asked the system right away.
[Please drop your blood on the sword to let it recognize you as its master first.]
Yang Song was relieved to hear this answer. He then quickly cut his finger slightly and let his blood drop on the sword.
The cut on Yang Song's finger healed right away and the sword absorbed Yang Song's blood at a speed visible to naked eyes.
After the absorption, the Blue Bold Sword shone brightly in blue. After a few seconds, the light subsided and the Blue Bold Sword immediately magically shrunk itself into the size of a little finger before it shot itself into Yang Song's forehead.
That took Yang Song by surprise. But soon, Yang Song felt an additional connection in the depth of his soul and some information appeared in his mind.
It turned out that this Blue Bolt Sword was a 'natal sword'. Simply put, a natal sword was a sword that was attached to a cultivator's very soul, another way to explain it was that the natal sword would become a cultivator's additional organ after the binding.
Yang Song initially thought that he would have to learn some troublesome methods in order to control a sword, but it seemed that he had thought too much.
The current Blue Bolt Sword was like Yang Song's third hand; he could control it at will. So with a move from his mind, the miniature Blue Bolt Sword shot out of Yang Song's forehead. Then, it kept zooming in and floated vertically before Yang Song.
There were also more functions available to Yang Song. For example, Yang Song could change the way he summoned the sword. He let it appeared directly in his hand or in another way he could think of.
He could also change the size of the Blue Bolt Sword at will, the biggest was about over three meters long and almost a meter wide.
Yang Song could also manifest thunder through the Blue Bolt Sword freely, as to how much and how big the thunder Yang Song could manifest, he still was not sure about it, he would need to find a place to experience with it in the future.
But Yang Song also knew that with his current strength, there were still limitations to how much he could do with the Blue Bolt Sword.
Storing the Blue Bold Sword back inside his Sea of Consciousness, Yang Song shifted his attention to other rewards that he had got from the system.
There were two jade slips inside the storage and Yang Song took one of them out. When this jade slip appeared, the system reminded him with a prompt.
[Learn the Sky rank defensive formation – Innate Mirror Formation? Yes/No]
As soon as Yang Song chose 'yes', the elegant and ancient-looking jade slip instantly vanished, then, foreign knowledge showed up in Yang Song's mind mystically.
Innate Mirror Formation was a Sky rank formation that was several points more special that other defensive formation.
Generally, array or formations needed a medium that contained Spiritual Energy to operate, and that 'medium' was generally Spirit Stones.
However, the Innate Mirror Formation actually absorbed the Spiritual Energy from nature directly; no medium was needed.
It was also worth mentioning that the type of formation that absorbed the Spiritual Energy directly from the heaven and earth generally had the word 'Innate' in its name.
But to make this formation, Yang Song needed to refine several 'formation flags' and draw several 'formation symbols'.
Fortunately, thanks to the system's god-like functionality, Yang Song had learned all the necessary things.
In addition, Yang Song had also learned about the rank of array formations. As far as Yang Song knew, they were Mortal, Earth, Sky, Heaven, Peerless, and Divine.
Each rank of formation was different from each other greatly and that was based on the scope of the formation, functions, as well as its ability to last. In general, the rank of the formation was determined by its lifespan.
The Sky rank was considered to be a very high-rank already, and Yang Song also praised the system for this generous reward.
The Innate Mirror Formation would manifest a mirror-like barrier and protect the things inside. When the enemy's attack fell on the barrier, the attack would be repelled and it would attack the enemy back. It was like using light to shine on the surface of the mirror, and the light would bounce back.
The logic of this formation was as simple as that. However, this 'simple' didn't mean it was weak, on the contrary, this Innate Mirror Formation was among the top five most powerful defensive formations in the Sky rank.
After putting this powerful prop away, Yang Song proceeded to extract another jade slip from the storage space.
[Learn the Sky rank sword technique – Ten Thousand Returning Swords? Yes/No]
The process of learning was no different from the previous time. But when Yang Song learned about this sword technique for real, he was quite shocked.
The Ten Thousand Returning Swords sword art, just as its name implied, if one cultivated this technique to the extreme, one would be able to command ten thousand swords and use them to attack the enemy in various ways.
This sword technique had a total of nine stages. If a cultivator cultivated it to the first stage, he would be able to command swords up to 1,000.
What was special about this sword technique was that the cultivator did not really need to use 100 or 1,000 swords at all, with just one sword, the cultivator would be able to clone 1,000 swords.
But it had to be noted that the additional 999 swords were not real swords but 'sword energies' that could manifest in reality. When the attack ended, those sword energies would dissipate.
However, if the cultivator himself really had 1,000 or 10,000 real swords, then the power of the technique would be greater and more destructive.
The only drawback about this technique was that the main sword had to be at least Sky rank.
Speaking of which, the ranks of technique were divided into Human, Earth, Sky, Heaven, Peerless, and Divine.
As for the ranks of treasure and tool, they were divided into Earth, Spirit, Sky, Magic, Heaven, and Divine.
After Yang Song sorted out his emotions, he took a deep breath and began to cultivate the Ten Thousand Returning Swords sword technique right away.
This sword art didn't just involve the way to command swords to attack, but it also involved some basic sword moves.
But in Yang Song's thought, those 'basic' moves could be classified as 'top-level' moves in terms of martial arts.
To cultivate this sword technique, the cultivator needed to have a strong soul and a firm heart. Because when commanding so swords, the cultivator himself also had to divide his minds into countless parts in order to control them perfectly.
When Yang Song's heart and mind became calm, his whole person entered an ethereal state, and he soon practiced step by step according to the sword technique in his mind.
Yang Song originally thought that such a powerful sword technique must be quite difficult to cultivate, but when he started for real, it was as if he had practiced this sword technique a long time ago.
He actually did not need anyone to explain anything. He could understand every move. He also felt very proficient in it, and he could display them naturally.
His movements were smooth and flowing without any lag.
Taking another deep breath, Yang Song summoned the Blue Bolt Sword and used his True Energy to truly display it.
Regarding the nine stages of this sword technique, the first stage was called One Thousand Returns.
Without using True Energy, just rehearsing, Yang Song naturally felt very smooth. But when he really used the True Energy to display it, he was surprised that his True Energy was only enough for him to clone out 350 swords.
But that was enough to that, because to enter the first stage, one had to be able to clone out 100 swords.
Ten Thousand Returning Swords sword art had far surpassed all the techniques Yang Song had ever seen before. If the first stage could be cultivated by Yang Song completely, Yang Song dared not say the power of splitting a mountain, but to destroy a building or even Yang Song's own courtyard including the house itself with one move was complete beyond question.
Yang Song reduced the number of clones and only kept it to 5 swords only including the main sword. Then, with a will from his heart, four swords shot out like missiles and darted towards a big stone used to test the strength not far from that.
Bang!
With that sound, in a blink of an eye, the big stone exploded and turned into countless fragments before they scattered all over the ground.
Xiao Laoxu and Xiao Laofei who were watching the magical scene from the beginning to the end with their mouths wide open were shocked and their souls almost left their bodies.
"What a strong sword technique!" Yang Song couldn't help exclaiming secretly.

For several days, Yang Song's daily action was none other than going to the White Dragon Abode to cultivate in the morning and coming back home at night.
On this day, Yang Song got a call from Zhang Qinqin early in the morning.
"Dad, the app for our family is ready. I will send the link to you now, and if you have anything to add, just tell me."
"Good. By the way, it's been several days now, how is the company doing?" Yang Song thought about the popularity of the website and was curious about its statistics.
"Everything is very good so far. Currently, our website has almost 20 million users, among them, there are 13.9 million registered users. The income we have received is over 100 million C dollars."
"I see," Yang Song nodded. It was not even a week yet, but the company had already earned over 100 million. This showed that the future of Grassynovel was absolutely stable.
"This old man has a suggestion; you can ask the developers to create a lottery wheel where readers can spin once per day to get various rewards, for example, Great Energy Pill and Spirit Energy Pill. Of course, you have to lower the chance of winning them too. Right, it's best if you do it now," Yang Song added.
"This idea is very good, dad, I will surely inform the developer team after this," Zhang Qinqin replied excitedly. In her heart, she wondered why had she not thought of this awesome idea? Anyway, she could praise her father-in-law for having a great business mind.
"Then let's end the call here."
After hanging up the phone, Yang Song let out a slight smile while mumbling, "I hope Runningnovel is still doing well now."
Speaking of this Runningnovel, it actually had its own mother company which supported it from behind, this was the reason why this company could dominate the literature industry these years.
Now that his Grassynovel had come into being, that rubbish Runningnovel should feel sluggish for a while.
Yang Song could also foresee that Runningnovel would surely copy the genres of his company and try to make a comeback with it. However, Yang Song had already thought of a way to counter that.
He would use the simplest and crudest yet most effective method – offer better conditions for the authors. As long as the conditions and benefits that his company could offer were better and more satisfying that Runningnovel could, then Yang Song could think with his toe that the authors on the other side would surely 'relocate' to his company.
By then, the rise of Grassynovel would be undoubtedly unstoppable in the online literature industry. And Runningnovel would fall behind and become a second-rate website.
Maybe Runningnovel could ensure its readers by copying Grassynovel's novels, but that was far away from being able to make its status up to par with Grassynovel, because the novels on Runningnovel were generally cliché martial arts novels, and they more or less took over the majority of the entire website.
As for Grassynovel, all its novels were new-type novels that offer readers new and different worlds.
Buzz!
At this time, the vibration of his phone pulled Yang Song's back from his thoughts. Zhang Qinqin sent the link to download the contribution app software over.
But before downloading the app, Yang Song first wrote his idea to acquire Runningnovel's authors and sent to it Zhang Qinqin.
After Zhang Qinqin replied back with an "Okay", Yang Song clicked on the link to download the app.
After a few seconds, the app was downloaded successfully.
The app had a simple "Yang" word as its icon and its name was "Contribution".
After opening the app, Yang Song found that it was actually similar to a forum. All the members could upload videos and photos, however, to claim contribution points, they had to submit proofs in the "Contribution Points" option.
Then, the management team would inspect and evaluate the proof, then, the management team would give them Contribution Points based on the level of the contribution.
Yang Song, as the absolute master in this forum or this very application, could do anything he wanted, for example, he could generate infinite Contribution Points and give them to all the members.
There was also the "Store" option where members could browse various items and exchange them with Contribution Points.
Currently, only Yang Song had the power to upload items in the Store. By saying that, it meant that Yang Song could give permission to the management team or someone to upload the item in the Store.
After someone bought the item, a notification would be sent to Yang Song, and Yang Song would tell them the time to receive the item.
In this app, there was also a chat function. In the chat function, there was a ready-made group where all the Yang Family members could chat. Of course, people could also chat one-on-one personally and they could also create their personal group chat.
Overall, this app was more or less like a social media platform, the only difference was only the Yang Family members were allowed here, and only Yang Song had the ability to add new members.
Yang Song was quite satisfied with this app, and he did not have anything to add at all. Zhang Qinqin did a good job making this app.
At this moment, only Yang Song and Zhang Qinqin were seen here because it still needed Yang Song's consent to allow other members to download it.
Yang Song then sent a message to Zhang Qinqin allowing her to let other members download the app.
…
After several days, the family ranking of the Yang Family also jumped away from the area under the jurisdiction of Martial City.
At this time, the family influence points were being generated each second and the main culprit of this was of course Yang Mingfei who had become famous due to the fact that he beat other top players and won the 'number one' title.
Next, Yang Mingfei would have to battle against other top players from other parts of C Country.
By now, all the top players of other cities had already been announced. When all of them battled against each other, there would be a live broadcast nationally.
Speaking of the current ranking of the Yang Family, Yang Song was quite stunned by the number of the top families visible on the ranking board.
In the entire Martial City, there were actually 298 top families, approaching 300, that were considered to be powerful. And the Yang Family ranked 250th among the 298 top families.
"There are 249 families that I have to beat." Actually, the Yang Family ranked 250th since yesterday, but until now, it still had not risen. This portrayed how difficult it was to climb and how deep the water was in Martial City.
Some normal people might not know it, but as far as Yang Song knew, there was a rumor stating that there were over 200 families that had inexplicable links with the seven Grandmaster martial artists.
But don't forget that was just in Martial City alone. In Yang Song's estimation, he could guess that most top families in C Country all had connections with the seven Grandmasters, and the number of those top families accounted to the range of thousands, as far as Yang Song concerned.
The mission to become the top family in C Country seemed very difficult, however, Yang Song felt that it was actually a matter of time instead of the matter of difficulty. Yang Song was confident in this because he had his third son – Yang Haoxi, who was also a Grandmaster martial artist.
It was just that he had not come out of the abyss, or he had not found a way to come out for now.
Thinking of his third son, Yang Song immediately opened the "Family Influence" panel and inspected Yang Haoxi's status.
As Yang Song expected, that guy was still alive and he was still in the abyss. But there was one thing that made Yang Song feel puzzled: "Why did an abyssal beast king abduct Yang Haoxi?"
Yang Song also felt quite tricky when he thought of this.
"Does it want to establish a peaceful relationship with humans? Or does it have other ulterior motives? Or it actually… wants to mate with… Yang Haoxi?"
Yang Song gulped and imagined the fact that he would have an abyssal beast as his daughter-in-law. No, before he could even fully imagine it, he already shivered all over.
Speaking of Yang Haoxi's spouse, she had passed away when Yang Mei'er was just a few months old due to an incurable disease that even the top martial doctors could not cure.
Looking back, it was also quite strange. Yang Haoxi's wife was actually a genius in martial arts, but she actually got an unknown disease. Now that Yang Song thought about it again, he felt that it should've had something to do with her special physique that was related to… cultivation.

This time, Yang Song did not take Xiao Laoxu and Xiao Laofei with him, he went to the White Dragon Abode alone.
When walking on the road, Yang Song blended himself with the busy people on the street and changed his appearance and clothes professionally.
After a while, Yang Song went into an alley where no human was seen and summoned the Blue Bolt Sword. Then, with a slight leap, Yang Song stood on the body of the sword stably. Immediately, Yang Song issued a command slightly in his mind.
Whoosh!
Yang Song, with the Blue Bolt Sword under him, skyrocketed to the sky at a speed that eyes could not catch.
The white clouds dispersed and divided to the side, and Yang Song experienced flight that could only be seen in fantasy for the first time.
The clouds and the gentle sunlight blended with each other perfectly, giving out a sense of mesmerizing scenery.
Yang Song took a deep breath, calmed down his mood, and urged the Blue Bolt Sword to speed up.
Soon, a familiar mountain came into Yang Song's sight and Yang Song dived straight down in the direction of the White Dragon Abode.
To some people, only a gentle blue light was seen shooting down, however, they only regarded it as a hallucination since it appeared too quickly and disappeared too quickly.
After coming down, Yang Song stored the Blue Bolt Sword back in his Sea of Consciousness.
Today, Yang Song did not plan to cultivate at all, he wanted to explore this White Dragon Mountain instead.
Not long after, Yang Song came out of the forest and climbed the stone steps with the many tourists.
Yang Song's current appearance was that of an average young man who seemed to be in his early twenties only.
Today, there were quite many people, but not everyone was a tourist, some of them were just locals and came here to exercise only.
Looking up, there were endless steps that led to the top, but even so, it still did not stop people from going up and down.
After Yang Song climbed the steps for a while, he soon met an old monk in a yellow kasaya. The old monk's right hand was holding a copper khakkhara or Zen staff to announce his presence.
However, no one seemed to want to help him at all. But the conversations between the young people on the side answered Yang Song's question.
"That old monk's temper is so weird."
"Right, a group of people wanted to help him earlier, but he refused them. At his speed, I bet he will arrive at the top by tomorrow."
"Well, let's just hope that he won't be exhausted to death so that we wouldn't be in trouble!"
"…"
After a while, that group of young people arrived right behind the old monk. As they were about to pass by the old monk, the old monk suddenly stomped the Zen staff to the right side, blocking that group of young people.
Those young people were taken aback for a moment before a young man among the group stepped forward and asked angrily, "What do you want to do, old thing?"
The old monk then turned his head over and announced Buddha's name calmly, "Amitabha, bastard."
Hearing this, those young people including the young man were stunned, the other tourists around were stunned, and even Yang Song was stunned by this.
"What the hell? Did I just hear it right?"
"Did the old monk just say 'bastard'?"
"Damn, isn't a monk supposed to be very calm and never curses?"
"Well, but those young people were indeed disrespectful to him earlier. They talked right behind his back."
"Oh? No wonder, but still…"
"…"
After being stunned for a moment, the young man was slightly angry at the old monk, "Damn old monk, why did you curse me? Do you not want to live anymore? I'm telling you, this daddy is from the capital. If I want to destroy your temple, it's as easy as drinking water."
"Amitabha, bastard," the old man announced the Buddha's name again with a slight bow.
"You…" Somehow, the young man felt oddly irritated every time he heard the old monk announcing Buddha's name. if it weren't for the fact that this old monk looked very old and his body seemed quite frail and there were many people around, he would've beaten the hell out of this old monk earlier already.
"Donor, this poor monk has seen the sea, cloud, and volcano, of course, it is not this poor monk's first time seeing a bastard person like donor too. Donor's parents must be very upset to have a bastard like donor, donor's friends must feel very uncomfortable to have a friend like donor. They said don't judge a book by its cover, but donor's appearance is no different from donor's inner part. Donor is a bastard on the surface and even more of a bastard on the inside…"
The old monk started ranting calmly and vigorously. From the look of it, it seemed like this old monk planned to speak for three days and three nights.
But Yang Song felt that this old monk was not simple at all. This old monk's breath was indeed quite weak and seemed very normal, however, Yang Song was very sure that this old monk was none other than a martial artist. He should be at least stronger than Wu Dahai.
Feeling curious, Yang Song opened his Eyes of Insight and looked at the old monk.
Name: Xuan Kong
Combat Power: 9th Tier Master
Talent: Dharma (1), infinity blabbering (100), dual personality (100), comprehension (69), martial arts (59), language (70)
Yang Song was stunned by this old monk once again. This old monk turned out to be a 9th Tier Master? He was just one step away from the Grandmaster stage?
However, not to mention his breath, even his appearance did not seem like someone who had practiced martial arts.
A total of six talents, but what made Yang Song feel puzzled was that dharma talent. As a monk, his biggest talent should be his dharma, but this old monk's talent in dharma was so low that Yang Song started to question the system to see if there was a bug.
The system of course denied it. This monk Xuan Kong's talent in dharma was indeed 1 in value.
Yang Song was speechless by this.
"B-brother Tang! S-someone call an ambulance, please!"
"Oh no, Brother Tang's blood just flows out of his nose nonstop! Call an ambulance quickly!"
"Hurry up and clutch his nose to stop the bleeding!"
"No you stupid, how will he breath, then?"
"Oops, help! Brother Tang is dying due to the old monk's blabbering!"
"…"
Suddenly, chaotic noise attracted Yang Song back from his thought. When Yang Song walked to the front, he saw the young man who confronted the old monk earlier was currently lying on the ground, his body convulsed nonstop, and foams could be seen coming out of his mouth constantly.
Some onlookers around hurriedly pulled out their phones and called the emergency number.
While some onlookers pulled out their phones to record the entire scene and post it on social media instead.
Of course, there were also people who had recorded the entire show from when the old monk started blabbering his 'profound dharma' to the scene where the young man collapsed.
"Shocked! A young was blasted by old monk's 'profound dharma' and almost died due to the 'long and heavy' blow."
After the video was sent out, it instantly attracted a lot of attention. Countless likes, comments, and shares were seen.
"Lol, what a profound dharma!"
"I bet this old monk has achieved the peak of Dharma, blabbering can kill the evil! That dude was acting rude to the old monk first."
"This must be staged."
"This is so funny and sad at the same time. You know, just listening to the old monk's 'profound dharma' via the video, I can feel the young man's feeling."
"Is he really a monk? Why did he like to curse so much?"
"Where is that?"
"It seems to be White Dragon Mountain. I remember that there is a temple on the top of the main peak of that mountain."
"…"
…
Not long after, an ambulance arrived and some people carried the young man down. Fortunately, it was not very far away from the bottom of the mountain.
Soon, everyone began to disperse and no police were seen because from the beginning to the end, the old monk didn't have any physical contact with the young man, the young man only had his own poor state of mind to blame. Therefore, no one reported it to the police.
Everyone secretly praised the old monk's heavenly skill in injuring people with just his mouth alone. Along the way, everyone was still talking about it nonstop.
And this incident did not stop everyone from going up the mountain at all, on the contrary, it even motivated them. Because they wanted to witness how far the old monk could walk.
Yang Song was also among the many people. However, when Yang Song was about to pass by the old monk, the old monk spread out his Zen staff and actually blocked Yang Song's way.
And this action instantly attracted people's attention again…
Report chapter
"What the hell does that old monk want to do again?"
"That young man did not say anything bad about the old monk, did he?"
"I hope this young man won't become another victim."
"Yeah, let's pray that his state of mind won't be raped by the old monk."
"…"
Yang Song ignored the voices around and looked at the old monk, he then put on a calm face and said to the old monk Xuan Kong, "Master, what can I do for you?"
Master Xuan Kong looked at Yang Song's face with his brows furrowed for a few seconds before he let out a kind smile, "Young donor, why don't you help this poor monk climb the mountain?"
Yang Song looked at the old monk weirdly before he agreed without hesitation, "Good."
The people around were taken aback by this unexpected situation.
"What an eccentric old monk!"
"But that young man has to accompany that old monk all the way to the top of the mountain…"
"Could it be that there is a conspiracy in it?"
"Hmm? Possible."
…
Twenty minutes later, Yang Song was holding the old monk's Zen staff in his right hand while accompanying the old monk to climb the mountain.
As the two climbed up farther and farther, fewer and fewer people could be seen. The White Dragon Mountain was indeed not very high, but the size of the mountain was very big, making the distance from the bottom to the top quite big.
Not to mention, tourists generally only came here to view the old mansion of a certain ancient emperor that was located in the upper waist of the mountain.
As for the temple on the top of the mountain, very few people had an interest in it. Because that temple was in the forest on top of the mountain and the passage was not so easy to walk, especially for ordinary people.
Therefore, people only knew that there was a Buddhist temple called White Dragon Temple, but few people had seen it and visited it in person. Coupled with the fact that not many people were interested in Buddhism at that, only a few people went to that temple around the year.
Yang Song had also heard about the White Dragon Temple before and he had never visited it too. But today, this White Dragon Temple really opened his eyes.
After dozens of minutes of conversation with the old monk, Yang Song found out that the old monk Xuan Kong turned out to be the abbot of the White Dragon Temple.
No wonder that his martial art realm was so high. But from Yang Song's view, the old monk did not seem to be very healthy at all. He had an inner injury.
Yang Song knew this from the uneven breath and pulse of the old monk.
But there was one thing that Yang Song did not understand, why did the old monk go down the mountain despite his weak health?
"Master Xuan Kong, why did you go down the mountain? I know that your health…"
The following words could be guessed without saying.
Master Xuan Kong sighed and said, "This poor monk wants to buy a Great Energy Pill to try, to see if it could do something with my health."
"Great Energy Pill? Then have you bought it?"
As if poking the old monk's sensitive spot, his face turned black in an instant and his weird temper came up again, "Amitabha, the bastard that created the Great Energy Pill doesn't allow monks to use it, so this poor monk couldn't get anything."
Yang Song's mouth twitched. 'Well, the bastard creator that you're cursing is right next to you. But isn't it for your own good as well? You are a monk; how could you use such a 'mortal' pill? Aren't you afraid that you will go to hell instead of Buddha's paradise when you die?'
But Yang Song also made up his mind to never reveal the fact that he was the one who created the Great Energy Pill.
After saying some weird things for a while, old monk Xuan Kong finally calmed down and his other personality took place again, "Amitabha, young donor is a good person. When we arrive at the temple, this poor monk wants to gift you something as a thank you fee."
Yang Song nodded without saying anything. In fact, Yang Song actually did not accompany the old monk out of pity or anything, but his intuition told him that on top of the White Dragon Mountain, there would be things that would pique his interest.
It was worth mentioning that in the White Dragon Abode before, Yang Song found a great treasure like the Spiritual Energy Binding Flower, which indicated that this White Dragon Mountain must not be a normal mountain.
In addition, as Yang Song went closer and closer to the top of the mountain, he noticed that the Spiritual Energy between heaven and earth began to turn denser and denser.
And this manifestation was simply not generated by the dense forest at all, or maybe the dense forest was part of it, but Yang Song was pretty sure that the main factor that created this situation was something else.
More than twenty minutes later, Yang Song and the old monk Kong Xuan walked past the last rough stone step and arrived at a space where long grass and various trees grew around.
From this, Yang Song was very sure that it should've been a very long time since the last visitor came here and it was not typical for the monks of the White Dragon Temple to go down the mountain.
But if they didn't go down the mountain, what could they eat to survive? Wild fruits? Or did they have a farm up there?
Walking a few more steps, Yang Song suddenly stopped and the old monk also stopped and looked at Yang Song with a puzzled face, "What is it, donor?"
Yang Song looked around for a while before he answered calmly, "Now, I know why there are not many visitors coming up here."
The old monk continued to look at Yang Song with a puzzled face as if he did not understand what Yang Song was saying.
Yang Song looked right in the old monk's eyes, "Your level of acting is so great to the point that you can be a film emperor."
Old monk Xuan Kong was startled by this and he said, "What is donor talking about? This poor monk doesn't understand."
Yang Song sneered and clutched the Zen staff in his hand.
Crack, crack…
The Zen staff broke apart and strange green powder fell out of the hollow staff.
Old monk Xuan Kong was stunned, "Donor, you…"
"Stop pretending already, you can indeed be a film emperor, but I am a film god!" Yang Song snorted and his appearance started to change quickly.
Soon, the average and young appearance earlier disappeared and an old appearance with a bald head and a monk outfit appeared.
Yang Song, in the appearance of a monk, took out a long string of Zen prayer beads and acted like a monk.
"Amitabha," Yang Song said Buddha's name.
Old monk Xuan Kong was shocked and with a stomp of his right foot, he backed away swiftly. His current action was in extreme contrast from the old and weak appearance earlier.
"Amitabha, who are you?" He was still in shock. This was the first time that someone had seen through his pretense, and it was also his first time seeing such a strange art that could change appearance so magically.
"Amitabha, you still have the audacity to say Buddha's name despite your evil nature?" Yang Song gazed at Xuan Kong calmly.
"Humph, what does it have to do with you?" Xuan Kong's face changed, and a look of hatred appeared on his face.
"Let me say it. Previously, the young donor who was sent to the hospital didn't faint because of your blabbering at all," Yang Song paused and pointed towards the broken Zen staff, "but because of the green powder inside the Zen staff, am I right? Also, the matter of having no one visiting the White Dragon Temple must have something to do with you. And…"
Yang Song then looked around him and declared, "And all of you should also come out now! This poor monk has already sensed you."
There was silence for a few seconds, then, Xuan Kong laughed loudly, "Hahaha, you are indeed not very simple," then he shouted, "you guys can come out."
This time, with rustling sounds coming from the bushes nearby, several bald monks in black outfits jumped out and announced the Buddha's name in unison, "Amitabha."
There were a total of five people, and most of them were 2nd Tier Masters, and only one was a 3rd Tier Master martial artist.
But Yang Song was not afraid of them, including Xuan Kong, because even though Xuan Kong was a 9th Tier Master, his current strength was far from that. In other words, Xuan Kong was indeed injured and his strength plummeted to the 7th Tier Master.
When every accomplice of Xuan Kong came in full view, Yang Song took a deep breath and his eyes turned murderous.
Report chapter
Xuan Kong was watching Yang Song's performance.
Facing six Master martial artists, Yang Song was still so calm, which showed that Yang Song was also a high-level Master.
But so what of it? From Yang Song's breath, Xuan Kong could determine that Yang Song was not stronger than him at all. He should be at best a 5th or 6th Tier Master.
The monks in black clothes did not have any weapons with them.
But Yang Song had no intention to talk any more nonsense, with a slight move of his hands, several offensive talismans appeared in both hands.
"Be careful!" Xuan Kong did not join the battle, but he shouted from behind.
At this time, a monk shouted, "Strike together!"
All the monks in black outfits rushed in together and showed their ferocious stances which were completely not in line with their kind faces.
Every one of them really had the intent to kill, in that case, Yang Song did not plan to keep his hands either.
Vigorous True Energy spread out of Yang Song's body and entered the several talismans, then, Yang Song threw all the talismans out in different directions precisely.
Witnessing such weird weapons, the several monks did not dare to take it lightly. Each of them immediately focused on the trajectory of those weird yellow papers that seemed to have eyes and tried to avoid them.
But how could they, mortal martial artists, avoid the magical talismans that had been refined so perfectly by Yang Song.
Fire Ball Talisman, Water Arrow Talisman, Wind Blade Talisman, Lesser Thunder Talisman, and Pressure Talisman.
A total of exactly five talismans attacked the five people.
In the south, the Fire Ball Talisman emitted fire in midair before it quickly manifested a ball of orange and aggressively hot fire the size two times bigger than a basketball and struck the strongest monk among the five monks.
The Water Arrow Talisman turned into a puddle of water before the puddle of water shifted and turned into dozens of arrows made of water.
The Wind Blade Talisman brought along the frenzied wind, lifting up leaves and specks of dust, and shifted into several horizontal and vertical lines of blades.
The Less Thunder Talisman emitted arcs of thunder along the way and made crackling sounds, if a person did not know, they would think that it came from the cloudy atmosphere up above instead.
The Pressure Talisman pushed the air downwards as if gravity was doing its heavy work, and the high-pressure sensation started to spread strangely.
Boom, boom…
Bang…
Several muffled sounds resounded almost at the same time and the five monks were struck by the five talismans successfully.
None of them could escape the five talismans and none of them could defend against the talismans.
"Wh… what in the devil's art is this?" Xuan Kong who was watching from the sideline was shocked and felt uneasy upon witnessing such a strange art.
Then, Xuan Kong seemed to think of something and quickly looked at Yang Song and asked, "You… are you an ability user? Or are you a witch from the south-east?"
Yang Song watched the five monks spit out bloods and fell to the ground for a while before he turned and looked at Xuan Kong. But he did not intend to explain anything about the talisman.
Feeling Yang Song's gaze, Xuan Kong took a step back involuntarily, forgetting that he was also a former 9th Tier Master. But the method shown by Yang Song was just too mystical and weird for one not to feel scared.
Those strange yellow papers were so strong that each of them could seriously injure Master martial artists.
Such an ability to temper with those yellow papers, only those mystical groups of people could do it.
Yang Song took a step forward and walked towards Xuan Kong.
Seeing this, Xuan Kong's expression changed and he shouted, "Humph, no what you are, today, you have to die!"
Xuan Kong's body started to change, his skinny body became bigger and bigger, and his wrinkled skin became tighter and tighter.
His skin color also changed. First, it emitted a bronze color, but soon, it turned golden mixed with brown.
Right at this moment, Xuan Kong looked very much like a Maitreya Buddha, except that the Maitreya Buddha had a smile on his face, but Xuan Kong had a murderous and a look of hatred on his face.
He hated Yang Song, he hated Yang Song for ruining his life. He hated Yang Song for injuring his companions. He hated Yang Song for finding out his true face.
Yang Song did not know what kind of martial art Xuan Kong had practiced, but it looked quite powerful.
Boom!
With a step forward, Xuan Kong's foot could crack the ground. It was as if his brown-golden body was really made of heavy gold.
Boom, boom, boom…
Xuan Kong, with his heavy body, rushed towards Yang Song at a fast speed.
Yang Song did not dare to take Xuan Kong lightly at all. With a thought, the Blue Bolt Sword appeared in his hand.
Yang Song waved the Blue Bolt Sword and slashed at Xuan Kong.
Clang!
Xuan Kong used his hand to defend the sword, and a spark appeared slightly. Xuan Kong was also stunned by the strange sword that appeared out of nowhere in Yang Song's hand.
It seemed like he had to use the fastest method to kill this old monk, otherwise, if this old monk took out strange things later, then he would really die.
Xuan Kong gritted his teeth, ignored the cracks that appeared on his hand from the collision with the blue sword earlier, and blasted out several punches in a row.
Yang Song hurried waved the Blue Bolt Sword to counter the heavy punches. Each punch was really strong and heavy, just like its look.
The fat Xuan Kong at this moment looked very tough, but in Yang Song's eyes, it was nothing more than that. Because with each strike he made against Xuan Kong's body, cracks would appear.
Bang, bang…
Soon, the cracks on Xuan Kong's body started to become more and more visible and Xuan Kong had to take a few steps back at every turn to adjust the flow of attack.
But Yang Song did not give him the opportunity to prepare anything at all. Every time Xuan Kong took a step back, Yang Song would take a step forward in the posture of chasing the other party.
Before long, the flow of battle took a batter turn for Yang Song but it was not so good in Xuan Kong's eyes.
At first, he and Yang Song were more or less on the same level. Every time he threw out a punch, Yang Song had to defend himself hurriedly.
But now, it seemed like Yang Song had already figured out all his routines and his attacks' trajectory. It seemed like… it seemed like Yang Song had already learned of his combat technique and knew all the attacks' directions.
Xuan Kong was shocked in his heart. 'What a monster this old monk is! He must be a martial art expert for sure. I have to finish this battle as soon as possible!'
Immediately, Xuan Kong inhaled a large amount of air, forcibly ignored his old injury, and went all out!
Feeling this change, Yang Song also changed his fighting style instantly.
From the beginning to the end, Yang Song had never used the abilities of the Blue Bolt Sword at all, and not even his True Energy was injected into the sword.
Bang!
An air-breaking sound resounded throughout the forest and Xuan Kong rushed towards Yang Song with all his strength gathered in one fist.
"I will let you see what real magical art is! Final Buddha Fist – Final Form!"
In midair, Xuan Kong's right fist started to glow in golden color and a suction force could be noticed in that fist. It was as if a huge amount of power was sucked and stored in that fist, waiting for its owner to release that power out.
"Then this poor monk will also let you see a realm celestial art!" Yang Song retorted.
Then, the Blue Bolt Sword in Yang Song's hand glowed in blue light, and arcs of blue thunder started to appear and swim about.
Yang Song did not announce the name of the technique or say anything about it, he just put his two hands together in a salute state and ran the Ten Thousand Returning Swords.
Buzz…
The Blue Bolt Sword that was let go did not fall but float in the air, then, it flew to the back above Yang Song and started to vibrate.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
A sight that could only be seen in fantasy took place as myriad swords mysteriously flew out of the one body of the Blue Bolt Sword and hung themselves in midair, waiting for Yang Song to command them.
"Go!" Yang Song shouted in his mind.
Afterward, more than 300 blue swords with thunder arcs embracing them flew out furiously and headed towards Xuan Kong alone.
"Boom!"
Dense myriad blue swords and a big golden fist greeted each other and created an earth-shattering sound.
Birds and beasts were frightened as they ran away quickly. Many people down the mountain and some martial artists unconsciously looked towards the top of the White Dragon Mountain, wondering what that sound was.
A burst of shockwave was created, and it destroyed many trees around, grass and flowers in the vicinity of the collision were scorched away.
Yang Song was still standing steadily, but he was looking down condescendingly at Xuan Kong who was coughing blood.
"Ho… how could it be? What… cough, what kind of celestial art was that?" Xuan Kong looked at Yang Song without moving his head and asked with difficulty. His right had already been destroyed, and he became a skinny old man again at this moment.
"There's no need for you to know that, farewell."
Yang Song did not answer his question, with a wave of his hand, a clone of the Blue Bolt Sword flew out and struck Xuan Kong in the neck.

Yang Song used his True Energy to draw a few Corpse Melting Talismans and Cleansing Talismans, which were basic rank talismans, and cleaned up all the corpses as well as their scattered blood.
For those evil monks, Yang Song had no pity for them. From the look of it, they should've done this kind of thing frequently.
Actually, when Xuan Kong first approached him, Yang Song knew that the old monk did not have a good intention already. He was just playing with him along the way.
First of all, there was a slight smell of corpses on Xuan Kong's body. This kind of smell couldn't be washed off by water or soap alone, because it had already penetrated into his body.
Second, when Xuan Kong stomped his Zen staff to block the path of the young man before, Yang Song caught a glimpse of pale and very fine powder that came out of the Zen staff. The powder was very light green in color, almost blended with the atmosphere, it was also scentless and hard to catch unless one was a martial artist.
Then, Xuan Kong deliberately spent time blabbering nonstop in order to let the green powder take effect in the young man's body.
But among all things, there was one thing that Yang Song did not understand. When Yang Song inspected Xuan Kong's natural attribute, there was a strange talent called "dual personality". What was the matter with it?
Yang Song, of course, understood what 'dual personality' meant, but he did not know how it worked on Xuan Kong.
Yang Song felt that this matter must be investigated.
Thinking of this, Yang Song thoughtfully looked in a certain direction that led deep into the forest.
With a step forward, Yang Song's appearance changed again and he turned into a man in his thirties.
Then he left the place and walked in that direction.
…
Twenty minutes later, a dilapidated temple with a white wall and a red gate came into Yang Song's view.
The gate had big rusty beads embedded on the surface neatly. The red paint on the big doors had already become pale. Right above the gate, a red plaque with several dragon carvings and words on it could be seen, and it read "White Dragon Temple".
Yang Song flicked his fingers slightly, a string of True Energy ran out of Yang Song and rush to hit the big ancient-looking doors aggressively.
Boom!
The big doors opened forcefully, bringing a wave of wind and lifting up specks of dust and pieces of the withered leaf inside.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
Without warning, several unusually big arrows made entirely of steel flew out from the inside and dashed straight towards Yang Song at an incredible speed.
Yang Song was not taken aback by this, he just waved his hands casually and slapped the several big arrows away easily.
Yang Song took a step forward and entered the White Dragon Temple.
Unsurprisingly, there were no people inside this old temple.
Looking around, Yang Song spotted a line of rope that connected to the big doors. The rope should be the thing that triggered the arrows to shoot out.
After walking around for a while, Yang Song found that although this White Dragon Temple was not big, all the things that a Buddhist temple should have were all presented inside.
All the important halls were also built, such as the Hall of Heavenly Kings, where sculptures of Four Heavenly Kings stood on the two sides with two in a group and Maitreya laid in the middle altar, which was the first main hall.
Next followed the Grand Hall where the sculpture of Sakyamuni sat. The Bodhisattva Hall worshipped the main Bodhisattva of a temple, the enlightened being who sought to enlighten others, which was located behind.
Next was the lecture hall, the place where Buddhist doctrines were delivered. Not far from that was the Sutra Depository, where Buddhist books, sutras and scriptures were stored.
Refectories, monks' rooms, and other attached architecture were distributed along the central axis. Buddhism advocated that people acted with leniency. An area where captive animals were freed to show the charity of human souls and to accumulate merit for the afterlife was also presented in here.
Overall, in Yang Song's view, this temple was no different from the Buddhist temple he had seen back on Earth.
Soon, Yang Song came to the abbot's big room where only the abbot alone lived inside.
Standing in front of the room, Yang Song frowned slightly. In front of the room, it looked normal and even very peaceful. However, a disgusting and wicked smell could not escape Yang Song's nose at all.
Yang Song moved his finger slightly and shot out the True Energy to open the door.
Bang!
As soon as the doors were opened, the unbearable smell became even stronger, rushing into Yang Song's nostrils.
This abbot's room's layout was quite strange. The entrance of the room itself was built to face no sun, so it made the atmosphere inside very gloomy and no sunlight could go in. There were even several trees planted in the front, adding an even gloomier taste to it.
Yang Song drew a Light Talisman quickly and threw it into the room. The gloomy room quickly became bright and everything was revealed.
It was a simple room with a yellow mat for a monk to meditate, a woolen blanket, and a light covering as well as a pillow. There was no bed but there was a bookshelf and a short table.
However, the sleeping and meditating area including the bookshelf and the table only occupied a bit of space inside this big room.
The bookshelf was placed to face the entrance, and behind the bookshelf, it was a thick-looking stone wall.
Even a fool could guess that this room was too unusual for it to have a wall and only a bit of space was seen in front of the wall.
Yang Song walked in and came to the wall directly.
"It should be on the other side."
Yang Song muttered at touched the wall here and there, trying to find the secret mechanism that triggered this wall to open. Yang Song could blast this wall directly but that would be a bit unwise.
After touching the wall all over, Yang Song still could not find a way to open this wall.
Yang Song was absolutely sure that this wall could be opened, and it was not just a bluff.
After looking around for a while, Yang Song finally rested his gaze on the bookshelf. This book shelf only had a few dusty books and several items on it. Then, Yang Song pushed and pulled everything on the bookshelf.
After a while, Yang Song had to sigh and praise the builder of this place in his heart. But there was also an irritated feeling in Yang Song's heart, hence making him go all out and searched this room entirely, even the ceiling was not spared.
Over twenty minutes later, Yang Song stood in front of the bookshelf and sighed in defeat.
"Which motherfucker built this place?" He could not help but curse frustratingly. "Well, let's just blast this shitty wall open. I don't believe that with my strength, I cannot even crack this secret place down."
Yang Song took a few steps back and was about to mobilize his True Energy to blast the wall.
"Click!"
Suddenly, there was a click sound. Yang Song looked down and found that his foot sunk down slightly and stepped on something that had the yellow covered on.
Feeling surprised, Yang Song kicked the mat away and saw that a square slab of the floor had sunk down slightly.
Yang Song bent down and pressed the slab of the floor down even more. That slab of floor continued to go down for a few seconds before it hit something at the bottom and made another clicking sound.
Rumble…
There was a gentle rumbling sound and a piece of big rectangular stone that blended itself with the wall suddenly fell down slowly.
When the stone fell down, Yang Song walked over and looked at the thickness of the wall. To his surprise, this wall was actually not made of stone entirely, because on the other side of the wall, it was plated with a wall of steel and its thickness was half an index finger.
Yang Song guessed that it was the reason why it did not make much sound.
But what made Yang Song frowned the most was that the gross smell became even stronger than before. If an ordinary person or even a low-level martial artist was here, perhaps he would not smell anything strange.
But for a cultivator like Yang Song, this kind of smell was even more disgusting than the smell of shit. With Yang Song's high-level cultivation base, he could even notice a wicked aura that drifted along with the smell.
Before going in, Yang Song decided to draw several useful talismans such as Light Talisman, Fire Ball Talisman, Lesser Lightning Talisman, Speed Talisman, and so on. Because Yang Song had a hunch that the things inside the dark side of this room would stun him for sure.
Report chapter
When Yang Song walked to the other side, what came into his view was nothing but darkness. But Yang Song could still see clearly and easily.
A few meters away from Yang Song was a passage led to the underground.
Without any hesitation, Yang Song entered the passage. The steps were made of stone, but Yang Song felt a bit sticky when walking.
The passage was only big enough for a person to enter, and if a normal person were to come here, he would feel suffocated without fail. As Yang Song went down farther and farther, he felt that the air was lacking. Fortunately, it was not a problem for Yang Song, a cultivator.
Over ten minutes later, Yang Song came to an underground room with a stone door blocking in the front.
Yang Song moved his finger and flicked out the True Energy slightly.
Rumble…
The stone door was forced to open immediately as if a strong force was pushing it. Then, what came into Yang Song's view really made him stunned.
The space inside the room actually resembled an underground cave. But this room looked really spacious. Yang Song estimated that it could accommodate hundreds of people.
However, although it resembled a cave, the ground did not have any bumpy or rocky areas. The ground was actually a flat concrete ground.
But the things in this room were really unbearable for one to observe.
Yang Song walked inside the inspected everything.
The first thing that caught Yang Song's eyes the most was a long table on the right next to the wall that had numerous human skulls presented on it.
Next to that long table was an ancient-styled well and the unbearable smell and aura came exactly out of that well.
Walking over, Yang Song stretched his neck and looked into the well. The scene inside the well hit Yang Song's eyes instantly.
"What a sin is this…"
Deep inside the well, Yang Song spotted so many human organs as well as dried baby corpses. The atmosphere inside the well was technically bright in Yang Song's eyes, but it was actually not so.
The negative energy that had accumulated inside this well was so dense that it was on the verge of transforming into substance.
"The underground of this White Dragon Temple is completely a place of evil and sins. What in the world did that Xuan Kong do with it?" Yang Song could not help sighing out his words.
After staying silent for a few seconds, Yang Song took out a talisman paper and thought of a talisman in his mind – Purification Talisman.
The Purification Talisman could purify the negative energy as well as resentments of the dead.
"Fortunately, this is not a cultivation world, otherwise, I'm afraid that this temple would've become a forbidden zone where ghosts and evil spirits run rampant long ago."
Since there was no ghost and evil spirit, then it was easy to say because the Purification Talisman did not work on ghosts at all. And to purify ghosts and evil spirits and let them go into reincarnation, Yang Song would need a higher rank talisman which was not available for him yet.
A few minutes later, Yang Song finished drawing all the Purification Talismans. Then, Yang Song dropped the Purification Talismans into the well and used his True Energy to activate them from above.
Pure golden light shone from the three Purification Talismans and the golden light covered the entire well gently.
The black energy that only a cultivator like Yang Song could see began to revolve around the sources of the golden light before it was sucked in at a speed visible to the naked eyes.
All the black and negative energy was soon absorbed by the three Purification Talismans. Immediately, the golden light began to retreat and force itself into the three talismans. However, the three talismans still emitted a golden glow.
Shizz…
Shizz…
Shizz…
The three Purification Talismans soon let out a soft puffing sound as they release another type of energy, and the new type of energy was nothing else but pure Spiritual Energy.
After the source of the unbearable smell had gone, the unbearable smell itself had also vanished from the atmosphere. However, the real stinky smell that came from the corpses was still lingering.
Yang Song took out a few more Corpse Melting Talismans and Cleansing Talismans and cleaned up all the corpses inside the well quickly.
With this, the air inside this secret underground room turned back into normal and the gloomy atmosphere generated by the negative energy earlier had also perished away. With Spiritual Energy spreading down here, the air even emitted a slightly comfortable sensation at that.
After solving this, Yang Song walked to the long table that had numerous human skulls presented on it. These human skulls did not have any negative energy around them, they were completely normal.
Yang Song extended out his hand and picked up one human skull. To Yang Song's surprise, the human skull in his hand was tougher than normal.
"This is… a martial artist's skull," Yang Song muttered and looked at other skulls. Yang Song put down the one in his hand and proceeded to test other skulls.
The result was, without exception, every skull was tougher than the normal human skull, every skull was the skull of a martial artist. However, judging from their durability, Yang Song guessed that most of them were Warrior martial artists, and only a few were Master martial artists.
"What did Xuan Kong did with so many martial artists' skulls? Why did he kill them?" Yang Song took a deep breath and whispered.
Yang Song's attention was then caught by a modern and big safe box that stayed next to the long table.
Yang Song did not bother to find the code to unlock the safe box but he used his strength to tear the door of the safe box off directly.
Even if it was a safe box designed to defend against martial artists, it was still useless in the face of a strong cultivator like Yang Song.
Throwing away the torn door of the safe box, Yang Song took out the only chest inside the safe box and put it on the table.
The chest also had a lock on it but it was useless. Yang Song thought that the owner must have done this just to feel safe only.
But as soon as Yang Song pulled away the lock and opened the chest, five shiny silver needles unexpectedly dashed out like lightning and shot at Yang Song's body.
Yang Song generated his True Energy and blocked the five needles easily. When the five needles fell to the ground, the concrete floor actually melted.
"What a vicious poison!" Yang Song shook his head slightly. Then, ignoring the silver needles, Yang Song took a look at the book with an ancient style title written in ancient C Language characters that was sleeping inside the chest – Yin Yang Devil Art.
"Yin Yang Devil Art?" Yang Song had learned a lot about ancient characters but he had heard of this kind of martial technique for the first time.
From the appearance of the book, it should be an ancient book. Yang Song picked up the book and opened the first page, which was the introduction page written with a writing brush.
The first page described the creator of this technique himself. But Yang Song noted the name of the creator of this technique, he was called "Kong Liu", and this Kong Liu person was actually the first abbot of this White Dragon Temple which surprised Yang Song.
Yang Song flipped through the book for a while before he got the gist of this Yin Yang Devil Art.
This Yin Yang Devil Art was actually subtracted from a dharma sutra called "Dharma of Yin and Yang" and it combined with another martial technique called "Yin Yang Martial Art", which Yang Song had heard of before.
As far as Yang Song knew, Yin Yang Martial Art was a top-level technique exclusive to a Grandmaster powerhouse among the seven Grandmasters. As to why Yang Song knew this, simple, because that Grandmaster expert shared a part of the Yin Yang Martial Art to the outside world. And most martial artists had heard of Yin Yang Martial Art.
However, that part of the Yin Yang Martial Art could only be practiced by the 6th Tier Master martial artists and above. From this, one could see its high requirement for talent and insight as well as experience of a martial artist in order to practice that technique.
As for the "Dharma of Yin and Yang Sutra", it was a sutra that talked about the course of the world, the right and wrong, black and white, up and down, Yin and Yang, and so on. But overall, it explained in the way of Buddhism and the content of this sutra portrayed the white as good and black as evil. In addition, it also explained how to turn from evil to good.
The Yin Yang Devil Art was a martial technique that had a principle that was in complete contrast with the Dharma of Yin and Yang Sutra. It was a technique that… turned one from good to evil.
Report chapter
After he read this Yin Yang Devil Art, Yang Song understood why Xuan Kong was so evil, had a dual personality, and was so bad in Dharma.
After practicing the Yin Yang Devil Art, the practitioner would undergo a great change. He would be forced to commit ruthless and inhuman acts such as killing and torturing. However, the reason why the practitioner was forced to kill was not actually a groundless principle and pure insane act.
The main reason why the victims had to be martial artists was that the Yin Yang Devil Art practitioner had to suck energy from those martial artists in order to upgrade their own martial art realm.
This kind of thing was a taboo in the martial art society and it was labeled as an evil act. Similar things could actually be found among the abyssal beasts, such as eating their own kind in order to promote their own strength.
As for those baby corpses, they also had their energy absorbed clean. To some extent, a new-born baby had even purer energy than ordinary martial artists, because in their fetus state, the baby was fed with pure essence which was converted from the food that their mother consumed.
But from what Yang Song had inspected earlier, there were only a few baby corpses as the energy in the babies was too pitiful, hence, Yin Yang Devil Art practitioners wouldn't target babies unless they were in a desperate situation.
The dual personality of Xuan Kong also stemmed from a specific reason. Every Yin Yang Devil Art practitioner would involuntarily develop a second personality in order to blend themselves with society.
Since this devil art was created based on a dharma sutra, it worked best on monks because the kinder a person was, the more evil he would become when practicing this technique. This was why Xuan Kong was so proficient in controlling his two personalities.
But at the end of the day, this kind of devil technique that could help a person to promote his martial art realm fast unavoidably had backlash and side effects.
Because Xuan Kong's martial art realm advanced too fast, it led to an unstable foundation and this was the reason why Xuan Kong's martial art realm regressed. But it was mentioning that it was only one of the two reasons.
The other reason why his martial art realm regressed so badly was that he was injured internally.
The Yin Yang Devil Art practitioner must have a firm heart, however, the taste of power was too hard to reject, hence making most of them unable to make further progress. Like Xuan Kong, he was stuck at the 9th Tier Master realm, unable to break through to the Grandmaster realm and his realm even fell down.
This Yin Yang Devil Art indeed had a characteristic of an evil art, but in this world, there was no evil art, only fragile heart and evil practitioner. Therefore, Yang Song decided to keep this technique in his collection.
There was another thing that was still puzzling Yang Song greatly. The Yin Yang Devil Art was created based on the Dharma of Yin and Yang Sutra and the Yin Yang Martial Art, and the Yin Yang Martial Art's owner spread a part of his technique, but based on Yang Song's experience, how could it be possible to create a new technique with only a part of another technique?
Therefore, Yang Song was wondering if the creator of the Yin Yang Devil Art had a relationship with the owner of the Yin Yang Martial Art. Or could they be the same person?
It was a pity that in the introduction page of the Yin Yang Devil Art, the creator did not specify the creation date, and he also did not know when the Yin Yang Martial Art was written. Otherwise, Yang Song would be able to connect some useful clues.
After keeping the Yin Yang Devil Art in his storage space, Yang Song continued to look around the secret underground room to see if there were other things that could catch his interest.
But to his disappointment, Yang Song did not find anything other than some pieces of jewelry and money, which should have originally belonged to those dead martial artists.
Although this underground secret room was not suitable for cultivation, Yang Song felt that it was a good secret base otherwise.
Yang Song had a plan that if his family could become powerful in the future, he would ask the country to see if he could buy this White Dragon Mountain from them.
"Well, the gain today is not that bad. At least I got an interesting technique."
…
Yang Song had already left the vicinity of the White Dragon Temple and was currently on his way back to the White Dragon Abode.
Not long after, Yang Song came to the White Dragon Abode and took out the Yellow Spring Shell Bead and cultivated.
As soon as he started absorbing Spiritual Energy, Yang Song felt that he should be able to make a breakthrough by tonight.
With no one disturbing, Yang Song continued to cultivate silently.
…
Black Gang Paradise District, Black Wolf Club.
Inside an underground room exclusive to the main members of the Black Wolf Gang.
Several looking people were sitting around a square marble table. Lang Ping, in a black suit, was sitting in the main seat.
At this moment, a muscular man with a shiny bald head opened his mouth, "I did not expect that with so many Masters, Wu Dahai still perished. It seems like this Yang Family is not as simple as it seems on the surface."
Lang Ping's face was not so good, he seemed to be quite angry, "That's not the main point, the most hateful thing is that our two 'puppets' rented by Wu Dahai died in the Yang Family, which wasted our resources greatly!"
A woman with a long tobacco pipe suddenly said, "What can we do about this? What we rented to him are not vehicles but humans, though they lost the ability to think. What's more, Wu Dahai used them to fight not to ride, so it's inevitable that they died."
The woman then sucked the pipe with her sexy lips and puffed out smoke slowly.
Lang Ping took a deep breath and said, "This new business is not bad, but it's a pity our 'products' have to face great danger of extermination…"
"I know your thoughts. You want to treat the puppets as milk cows, squeezing milk out of them until they're squeezed dry, however, it's obviously impossible. So you can just rest your mind," the woman interjected.
The bald man leaned back slightly and suddenly said, "I think we have to find more customers as soon as possible so that we can get more money to exchange for those 'Puppet Makers' and Final Boosters. Don't forget that we are not the only group of people working under that place. If we let the opportunity to get more benefit slip by, then other groups will surely suppress us and we will face danger."
Everyone of course understood this as well, but what could they do? Finding customers was easy, but persuading them to rent their puppets was not easy at all. And this had to blame on the price of the puppets.
"If we lower the price…" The bald man slowly said.
But before he could finish it, the sexy woman interrupted him, "That is not possible. The other group set the price the same as ours. If we dare to lower the price, they will join forces to attack us. Because the current price is already the lowest we can set. Think about it, one Puppet Maker costs as high as 60 million C dollars, and one Final Booster is 70 million C dollars. The price of the puppet is only 150 million each. Do you think lowering the price will be good for us?"
Everyone fell into silence and their hearts heavy. Just as they were thinking of the plans, Lang Ping's phone suddenly rang.
"What is it?"
"Boss, you have a customer. He seems to want to talk to you about the new product."
"Oh, tell me about it."
"He's from the Li Family."
"Is he Li Wanjing of the Li Family?"
"No, it's Li Wanjing's worker."
"I see, lead him to the special room."
After hanging up the phone, the bald man and the sexy woman looked at Lang Ping.
Seeing their gazes, Lang Ping answered naturally, "It seems like the Li Family wants to do something."
"That's unexpected. What does the 'righteous' Li Family plan to use the puppets for?"
"Do they want to research the puppet 'makers'?"
"Impossible, that's the product from 'that place'. The Li Family wouldn't be so stupid to offend that place."
"That's true too, it seems like the Li Family plans to eliminate some people."
"Is there any guess?"
"I don't know."
"Well, let's go to receive the guest from the Li Family."

It was already night time and Yang Song was currently walking slowly on the street with his other appearance.
The dense light of the city reflected the prosperity and the advancement of the world. Similarly, the sound of cars and varying vehicles coming and going showed how far the year had gone by.
In Yang Song's heart, he subconsciously thought of a certain blue planet, which was his homeland in his previous life. There was not much difference on the surface, but the danger hidden in this world was far more terrifying than those of nuclear weapons on Earth.
Before long, he arrived at his living community.
Seeing the abnormally dark road, Yang Song let out a smile secretly.
'It seems like some people have come to trouble me again.'
In Yang Song's sight, he saw many figures blending with the shadow and darkness of the night, and without exception, all of them were eyeing the Yang Family courtyard.
While Yang Song was looking at those figures secretly, those people were also gazing at Yang Song. But in their view, he was just an ordinary middle-aged man without the breath of a martial artist. Knowing this, they only looked at him with disdain.
Yang Song naturally felt those disdainful eyes and the arrogant thoughts of those people, but he was not affected the slightest.
After becoming a Foundation Building Realm cultivator, Yang Song had developed the Spiritual Sense. It was just that he was not proficient in using it previously. But now, everything was easy to say.
Yang Song's current Spiritual Sense could spread as far as 170 meters' radius. With each small realm advancing, it would increase by 10 meters.
Now, within 170 meters' radius, Yang Song could see everything clearly and could determine those people's strength clearly.
Among them, the strongest was a 7th Tier Master, and the weakest was a 2nd Tier Master. There was a total of twenty of them.
From this lineup alone, it could be seen how determined they were to kill him. But he was still puzzled about it. On the bright side, he was only a 2nd Tier Warrior martial artist, how could there be so many Masters coming for his life? Was his strength exposed somehow?
But it was obviously impossible. He had always done things in a very concealed manner. Not to mention outsiders, even his descendants did not know his true strength and in their impression, he was just an old man who had just become a martial artist in his 100s.
In addition, as a cultivator, Yang Song was very confident in his ability to conceal his breath. Like now, those people were thinking that he was just an ordinary man without any strength.
Yang Song sighed secretly and put the doubts aside. Then, he walked into his courtyard without any hesitation.
In those people's view, they thought that this middle-aged man was an acquaintance of Yang Song.
When Yang Song came to the door, he filled in the password of the door and entered the villa leisurely.
Not long after, Yang Song, in his original appearance, came out of the villa with an elegantly decorated walking stick and walked to the rocking chair under the tree.
Just after Yang Song sat down and was about to close his eyes, several people of the twenty people leaped out and came to Yang Song.
The man in the lead had an eyepatch and a ruthless and cold face.
Seeing him coming over, Yang Song pretended to be surprised as he asked with a trembling voice, "W-who are you?"
"Hand over the formula of the Great Energy Pill if you don't want to die!" The man with the eyepatch said coldly.
Yang Song's face revealed a scared and tough expression at the same time and said shakily, "I-impossible! That's my ancestor's…"
Without waiting for Yang Song to finish, the man with the eyepatch and several other people behind him took out their blades with a swish and stared at Yang Song as if looking at the prey.
"In that case, don't blame me for being rude!" The man with the eyepatch took a step forward and was about to slash the blade at Yang Song.
"W-wait, wait, I will give it to you! Please, just don't kill me!" Yang Song said with sweat oozing out on his forehead.
The man was surprised. He originally thought that this old man would not hand out such a precious thing even until death, but it turned out that he cherished his life so much.
"Humph, then do it quickly!" The man with the eyepatch yelled with a hideous face.
"Y-yes."
Then Yang Song tried to calm his shaky hand and reached into his pocket to take out a piece of folded paper that looked very old.
Afterwards, he handed it to the man with his wrinkled hand.
The man took out swiftly and unfolded the paper. Soon, he finished looking through all the content on the old paper.
His eyes gleamed slightly and his gaze fell on Yang Song's body. Immediately, he raised his foot and kicked Yang Song's chest with all his strength as if to make sure that with just one kick, Yang Song would die instantly.
Bang!
Yang Song flew out uncontrollably and hit the wall of his villa dozens of meters away. Blood flowed out of his mouth and soaked his clothes instantly. His eyes were still open but his breathing stopped, and even his heart stopped working.
The man with the eyepatch walked over and glanced down at Yang Song's body condescendingly as if looking at a dead dog. But to make sure that Yang Song was really dead, he moved his blade and pierced Yang Song's heart.
Yang Song's body was still motionless and blood flowed out of the wound on his chest smoothly.
Then, the man looked into the villa. There was another person inside, but it seemed like he was not aware of the situation inside. The man felt that it was not necessary to kill that ordinary man either.
With that, the man and his team jumped into the air and left this place silently.
…
After making sure that those twenty people had already left completely and there was no one spying around, Yang Song opened his eyes leisurely and got up from the ground.
Then, with one step forward, the blood and dirt on Yang Song's body were washed away strangely and his appearance changed into another young person magically.
Yang Song looked in the direction where those people left and let out a sneer, "Humph, it seems like another force in Martial City will have to crumble down."
Previously, Wu Dahai came to trouble him and died under his hand, and thus made the Wu Family's business break apart and was gobbled up by other forces. Wu Dahai was the main pillar of the Wu Family, without Wu Dahai, the Wu Family was nothing.
At the moment, all the Wu Family members were like rats running across the street. Even if they still had martial artists under them, it was useless. Without the support of Wu Dahai, it would be strange if the Wu Family could still stand against the chaotic wave.
And now, another family was finding their own death.
Yang Song was not completely sure which family those people earlier came from, but he had a rough guess in his mind.
In Martial City, the biggest pharmaceutical company was the Azure Silk Pharmaceutical which belonged to the Li Family. Not long ago, two killers from the Papa Devil Organization tried to kill him. After the interrogation, he found out that the Li Family was the main culprit behind it.
Not long after, even the Devil Master was dispatched, but that guy still died under him.
The Li Family had spent so much money to kill him, but in the end, it was all spent in vain. For this, the Li Family of course hated him to the bone and could not wait to take his life as compensation.
Finally, they found an opportunity and 'killed' Yang Song successfully.
The so-called "opportunity" was, Yang Haodong left Tong City for business, and Yang Haonan was temporarily occupied by the mess generated by the Li Family in the form of a business war.
With the two Masters being distracted, the Li Family clutched this golden opportunity in hand and killed Yang Song.
Yang Song had not found the Li Family to settle accounts yet, but they came to trouble him once again.
Such a hateful Li Family, if Yang Song did not take revenge, he would write his name upside down and put down his cultivation to generate world peace!
…
Martial City, Li Family.
Li Wanjing was looking at a piece of old paper in his hand excitedly. Next to him stood several people in black. One of them was a man with a red eyepatch.
"Patriarch, should we destroy the Yang Family completely after this?" The man with the eyepatch asked calmly.
Li Wanjing took a deep breath and calmed down his excitement, "That is a matter of course. If we allow this Yang Family to rise, our family will face danger. But now that we have the formula of the Great Energy Pill, that danger has perished. However, an injured dog will bite when it meets its dead-end. So tonight, the Yang Family will become histo-"
"Bang!"
Before he could finish his words, there was an explosion and the door of the villa was blasted open. Several people crashed inside along the way before falling down, breathless.
Report chapter
Li Wanjing and other people inside quickly retreated and displayed offensive and defensive postures.
A footstep sounded and an ordinary-looking young man in his twenties entered the villa slowly, facing Li Wanjing and his team.
"Who are you? Do you know that this is the Li Family?" Feeling the not-so-powerful breath on this visitor's body, Li Wanjing's restless emotion calmed down and he asked angrily.
The visitor was naturally Yang Song in another appearance.
His calm gaze fell on Li Wanjing's body casually, then, he noticed the familiar old paper on the table next to Li Wanjing.
Noticing this, Li Wanjing quickly picked up the paper and stuffed it into his pocket.
"Tonight, your Li Family will become a history," Yang Song did not intend to reveal his identity, he just said this slowly as if the Li Family was really that weak.
Hearing this, Li Wanjing and other people were stunned for a second before sounds of laughter cracked up unscrupulously.
"Haha, young man, you are a very humorous person."
"I think you are suitable to perform in the circus."
"Boy, it seems like there is something wrong with your brain, how about I take you to the best mental hospital? Don't worry, I will help you with the expense and so on."
"In my opinion, let's just kill this brat right away, we don't have much time to mess around."
"That's right, little guy, how about you kneel down and lick my shoes a little. I will consider letting you off."
"…"
Among all the people, only Li Wanjing and the man with the red eyepatch did not ridicule Yang Song. However, from the look in their eyes, it was obvious that they did not take Yang Song seriously. They had so many Master martial artists here, what was there to be afraid of?
Yang Song was not angry by those ridicules either, instead, he slowly bent down and picked up a piece of rock near his feet and flicked it casually.
Whoosh!
Puff!
The laughter was abruptly cut off, a man on Li Wanjing's side fell to the ground with his eyes open as if even he himself did not know the cause of his own death.
In the middle of his brows, a bloody hole could be seen and blood flowed out constantly, dying his face and the floor red.
Many people suddenly realized the seriousness of the situation as their faces became solemn.
Some people even gulped their saliva from time to time. No way, the guy who just died earlier was a 4th Tier Master. But he just died from a piece of rock flickered over casually by that young man.
"Let me ask you again, who are you? What do you want to do with my Li Family?" Li Wanjing looked at Yang Song coldly and his heart palpitated with an ominous premonition.
"I said, your Li Family will become a history tonight," Yang Song repeated with a leisure expression.
"Why?" Li Wanjing asked with an angry face.
"Why? Because you offended someone you should not have offended," Yang Song even showed a smile.
"Really? Then, who is that person?" From his tone, Li Wanjing still did not take Yang Song seriously. He was that confident because he still had his trump cards to fend his enemy off.
"That person is right in front of you," Yang Song said casually and took a step forward.
Getting this answer, Li Wanjing looked at his subordinates and his subordinates looked at him, as if to ask if they had ever seen this person or if they had offended him in the past.
But what they saw in each other's eyes was only puzzlement.
In Li Wanjing's impression, all his enemies were special and he remembered all of them. In addition, he was not a person who liked to offend people at all, not even an ordinary person.
However, Yang Song did not feel like saying anything anymore, with a slight tap of his leg on the floor, his figure flashed like lightning and rushed toward Li Wanjing.
"Not good!" The man with the red eyepatch reacted instantly as he rushed to the front of Li Wanjing and threw out his punch against Yang Song.
Bang!
The man with the red eyepatch felt the bone in his right arm broke apart like crispy bread. Then, his whole person was lifted up to the air and he flew out uncontrollably as if a huge truck had just slammed against him.
"Wang Lei!" Li Wanjing shouted and rushed to his subordinate instantly. Then, he took out a small transparent bottle of blue liquid and let Wang Lei drink it without delay.
Wang Lei, who was coughing blood, felt his breathing became stable and his bleeding stopped.
"Bang, bang, bang…"
While Wang Lei was trying to stabilize his energy and injury, several more people received the same fate as Wang Lei, but they were not so lucky as they went sent to hell instantly.
Li Wanjing's eyes were red with anger as he looked at the room not far from him and he shouted, "Puppets! Come out!"
Boom!
The door of that room broke apart and three figures with lifeless looks walked out in an unhurried manner.
Soon they arrived behind Li Wanjing's back and stood there silently as if waiting for Li Wanjing's order.
"Kill him! Use your Final Boosters directly!" Li Wanjing pointed at Yang Song who was fighting with his people.
The three puppets immediately broke Final Boosters which were stored in their mouths respectively without hesitation.
Their muscles started to become denser and bigger, their entire body began to turn weirder and weirder. Soon, their height increased to over 3 meters tall, their teeth became as sharp as a saw, and their black fingernails extended vertically to look like sharp monster claws.
Now, their human appearances had completely vanished, and they completely became monsters.
Roar…
With a hoarse roar, the three monsters immediately exploded their strength like crazy and rushed to Yang Song as Li Wanjing commanded.
Yang Song finished off the people around him easily before he shifted his attention to the three rushing monsters.
With his Eyes of Insight, he knew their strength right away. All of them were equally 8th Tier Masters. This kind of lineup was extremely domineering and overpowered.
The cold murderous intent emitted out from the three monsters simply made some people shudder with cold sweat.
The huge and hideous-looking bodies simply added the horrifying effects to the atmosphere, making it seem like this place was a killing ground.
Yang Song's mind moved and the Blue Bolt Sword manifested in his hand.
Immediately, he issued a command and three clones of the Blue Bolt Sword appeared and rushed to the three monsters respectively.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Three explosive sounds resounded loudly, the three monsters used their claws to block the three clones of sword. They were forced to retreat a few steps, but they immediately stabilized their bodies and rushed over again.
Yang Song had already prepared his next attack. Hundreds of clones of Blue Bolt Sword materialized densely in the air and the sound of thunder could be heard. All the sword clones vibrated as if they were eager to rush out to tear their enemies apart.
A moment later, Yang Song delivered his order in his mind: "Ten Thousand Returning Swords, go!"
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
The three monsters also roared out with their creepy mouths wide open at this moment. A second later, their oversized feet exerted more strength, crushing the floor underneath, and rushing out violently like three missiles.
Seeing this scene, all the people around including Li Wanjing hurriedly retreated to a distance away, for fear of being affected by the terrifying battle.
Li Wanjing and Wang Lei felt their world-view rotated upside down for a while. The magical methods produced by Yang Song, those hundreds of flying blue swords controlled by Yang Song, were all something out of ordinary. Both of them had seen those extraordinary groups of people commanding elements, both of them had encountered those ability users. But this was the first time that they had seen such a terrifying method.
"Boom!"
The hundreds of flying swords were instantly divided into three groups, and each group rushed to each monster.
The three monsters could only use their fists to defend against the incoming swords. They gathered all their strength in their fists and blasted at the rushing swords without fear.
"Bang!"
"Puff!"
However, the flying swords were like hot knives, and the three monsters' bodies were like pieces of fragile butter as hundreds of bloody holes were pierced easily.
Their fists were instantly destroyed as soon as they met the sharp and destructive edges of those flying swords.
The three monsters' heads had already become unrecognizable at this moment, their bodies were bombarded away and crashed into the wall of the villa.
Soon, the hundreds of flying swords there had flown out earlier began to flying back to the Blue Bolt Sword which was still floating in front of Yang Song.
After the last sword clone entered the Blue Bolt Sword, Yang Song looked around the villa, looking at the petrified people silently.
Li Wanjing, Wang Lei, and the others had an illusion that they were being stared at by a monstrous devil. Their bodies instantly shuddered without control, their legs betrayed them, and their knees touched the ground.
Seeing Yang Song walking over, Li Wanjing and his minions subconsciously tried to back away in fright.
The methods shown by Yang Song earlier were too scary. The blue sword that was still floating in front of Yang Song indicated that the scene earlier was real.
"Y… you, don't come over! W-what do you want to do with me?" Li Wanjing asked nervously.
Wang Lei, seeing this scene, felt that it was familiar as if he had encountered this scene somewhere previously. It was like a déjà vu.
Yang Song did not say anything, but the Blue Bolt Sword in front of him vibrated and arcs of thunder flew around strangely.
Li Wanjing only felt that his life was being clutched by the person in front of him. As his mind turned, he said hysterically, "A-as long as you spare my life, I can give anything you want, I can promise to whatever conditions you put forward."
Yang Song chuckled slightly but his words did not seem so warm at all, "Do you think you are at a situation where you can bargain with me?"
Li Wanjing's body shook slightly and he swallowed his saliva nervously. Yes, his life was in the other party's hands now, but what could he do?
However, Yang Song's next words made him feel slightly better, "But it's not like you're completely hopeless. I have a few absolute conditions for you to follow. As long as you can do it, I will let you live."
Li Wanjing nodded his head vigorously, "Yes, as long as Your Excellency spares my life, I can do anything."
"Very well. Listen carefully, first, from today onwards, stop trouble the Yang Family again. Second, the Yang Family will be your king from now on. And third, you will become my lapdog from now on."
Hearing this, Li Wanjing's thoughts revolved quickly and several guesses appeared in his mind. This person should be related to the Yang Family. The reason why he came here was because of no one else but the Yang Family.
The three conditions were actually out of Li Wanjing's expectations greatly, but they were still better than death.
Being a lapdog for another person was indeed very shameful, but looking Yang Song's strength and his weird method… Li Wanjing felt that it would be a good thing to follow such a strong man.
Now that his life was reassured, Li Wanjing felt that his heart fell back to its original position and he couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief.
Then, he got up and knelt down in front of Yang Song, "I have seen Master."
The scene was silent for a while, Li Wanjing's underlings including Wang Lei were sluggish for a while. But soon, they also got up and knelt in the direction of Yang Song and said in unison, "I have seen Master!"
Yang Song let out a smile and took out several talismans. With a slight thought from him, all the talismans flew over to all the people each.
Without warning, the talismans glowed slightly and pasted themselves on the bodies of those people. Soon, the talismans disappeared bit by bit and disappeared into the bodies of those people.
Li Wanjing and those people were puzzled and scared for a while. But Yang Song's voice floated over suddenly, "From now on, your souls will be controlled by me. If you have any malicious thoughts or disregard my orders, you will know the consequence."
Then, Yang Song's mind moved slightly and Li Wanjing felt like hundreds of knives were piercing his skin at the same time. The pain was so unbearable that his lips turned pale and his body fell to the ground.
Even if he was a 6th Tier Master, he still had the illusion that he was a vulnerable ant in front of Yang Song.
Seeing this, all the people around gulped nervously. What kind of evil method was that? To think that this person could make their originally lofty Patriarch Li look so weak with just a thought…
"Well, I should go back now."
With that, Yang Song stepped on the Blue Bolt Sword and flew into the air like a rocket.
Looking at the back of Yang Song that had become smaller and smaller, all the people in the villa could not help breathing a long sigh of relief as if they had just walked out of the gate of hell.
It was scary, but Li Wanjing felt that if he severed that person well, the benefit he would gain would be unlimited. If he did things well, maybe he could get those weird things like the yellow papers or even some incredible methods.
From now on, the Li Family had a big backing behind.

[Ding, congratulations to the Host for ranking 100th among all the families in Martial City.]
[Ding, congratulations to the Host for obtaining a 'Box of Rewards'.]
Yang Song was flying in the sky with his sword and on his way back to Tong City. The sudden sound of system prompts almost made him fall from the sword.
"What's the situation?" Yang Song muttered in wonder.
Had had just conquered the Li Family but this allowed his family to jump to the top 100 right away? This system refused to open for almost 100 years, but after it started up, it was so generous to him?
Yang Song then looked at the "Family Influence" and found that in addition to the Li Family, there was also Yang Mingfei who had contributed greatly.
There was also Yang Mei'er whose beast technique had just been appraised and approved by the National Martial Arts Guild. Now, the National Martial Arts Guild really appreciated Yang Mei'er, her potential was simply out of the world.
But the matter of revealing her identity to the public was currently in consideration because her age was just too sensitive.
On the family ranking board, the Yang Family had over 5,000 points and it occupied the 100th position.
Not long ago, when the Yang Family occupied the 1st position in the area under the jurisdiction of Martial City, it had over 1,000 points.
Yang Song was not sure how many points he needed to go to the top one in Martial City, but he was sure that it would not take long for him to go there, and by the time he was up there, he believed that a batch of handsome rewards would be rewarded to him.
Now, Yang Song was curious about the Box of Rewards he had just received. With this thought in mind, he immediately speeded up and went to his house.
…
It generally took two hours to go to Martial City from Tong City by car, but Yang Song only took over twenty minutes.
Over twenty minutes later, Yang Song came back home. Then, he went to the secret room.
As soon as Yang Song entered his secret room, he walked to the futon and issued a command to the system, "System, open the Box of Rewards!"
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Sky rank movement technique – Ten Thousand Returning Steps.]
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Sky rank pill formula – 10-day Sleeping Pill.]
"…"
Yang Song waited a few more minutes, but he did not see anything else. With a frown, he yelled, "That's it? Only two rewards? System?"
[Yes, Host.]
"Why is this time's Box of Rewards so different from the previous one? Why are the rewards so little?" Yang Song asked with a black face.
[Please note, Box of Rewards will generate a random amount of rewards and random rewards. And for the previous time, it was because the Host became the no.1 family.]
Damn! So it was actually random. But it was also quite reasonable in the previous time, it was because the Yang Family became the number one family in the area under the jurisdiction of Martial City, so the rewards he got were many.
After letting out a sigh, Yang Song looked at the description of each reward.
Ten Thousand Returning Steps: A movement technique created by the same person to match the Ten Thousand Returning Swords.
10-day Sleeping Pill: A powerful pill that even a peak Golden Core Realm cultivator cannot resist. After taking it, anyone under the Golden Core Realm would sleep for 10 days straight with no possibility of waking up. In the process, the user doesn't have to eat or drink, the user can just sleep peacefully.
Yang Song's face twitched. Why was the description of such a ridiculous pill so many? And the Ten Thousand Returning Steps' description so little?
He could only sigh helplessly and commanded the system, "System, learn the Ten Thousand Returning Steps."
Suddenly, new information appeared in Yang Song's Sea of Consciousness. Even without deliberately practicing it, Yang Song was confident in performing it perfectly.
Having said that, it was still necessary to test this movement technique.
As Yang Song's thoughts moved, his body flickered like shadow shifting and skipping hundreds of steps. But with his current level, Yang Song could only skip ten meters each time.
"What a powerful technique! It's almost like instant teleportation," Yang Song could not help praising this movement technique.
If he were to use this movement technique against his enemy, within ten meters, Yang Song could go behind his enemy instantly and stab the other party from behind.
Yang Song also felt lucky that he got this technique this time, and he felt that it was too much of a coincidence that it matched up with the Ten Thousand Returning Swords.
Thinking of this, Yang Song's eyes lit up, "That's right, since it is a technique created to match with the Ten Thousand Returning Swords, its power would at least double up if used together, right?"
As he thought of this, Yang Song immediately summoned the Blue Bolt Sword.
Whoosh!
As the Ten Thousand Returning Swords and the Ten Thousand Returning Steps revolved together, Yang Song felt a boost of power in his body instantly. Then, Yang Song produced a sword clone and tested it.
Boom!
The sword clone of the Blue Bolt Sword rushed out like thunder and pierced the ground not far away. The ground suddenly exploded loudly and many fragments of stones jumped out immediately.
Seeing this, Yang Song was very excited, but he quickly tried to calm down.
"Sure enough, it's stronger than before by at least two times. The speed is much faster than before, and the power it contains is also much more explosive than before."
This time, each sword clone was very sharp and explosive. It was like a knife with a super sharp edge and had a bomb attached to it at the same time. When it hit the target, the target would be pierced by the sharp edge and the bomb would explode after that.
Yang Song turned off the two techniques and turned his attention to inspect the 10-day Sleeping Pill.
The system presented Yang Song with the knowledge to refine the 10-day Sleeping Pill directly and there was also a sample of the pill.
It was a yellow pill the size of a thumb. The surface was very smooth, and it had a refreshing smell. Just smelling it, Yang Song felt quite sleepy instantly. But as he pondered on it a bit, his eyes brightened and he felt that this pill was not actually useless.
On the contrary, it was very useful to Yang Song. The description said that the user did not have to eat and drink at all in the sleeping process. So if Yang Song could research it out and modify it, maybe he could develop a pill that allowed people to ignore food and water for a few days.
Such a pill was especially very practical and useful to martial artists. Warrior and Master martial artists could not live without food.
Master martial artists were better, they could ignore hunger for one week easily, but that was in the premise that they did not do anything or waste their energy. If they were in the process of fighting in the front line in the abyss, then a large amount of energy would be needed and four days were their limit.
Warrior martial artists were even worse. If they battled in the abyss nonstop, they could only ignore two days of food and water.
When going down the abyss, it was not convenient to bring so many foods and they would mostly bring water. Hence, if Yang Song could produce a pill that could allow any level of martial artists to ignore food and water, then he would be able to make mountains of profits.
But that kind of pill was quite similar to Yang Haonan's Spirit Energy Pill. Spirit Energy Pill could make a person stay awake without any side effects for 72 hours, it did not mean that people could ignore foods and drinks. It just meant that the user would not feel sleepy for 72 hours.
However, Yang Song's new idea for that pill was that the user would not feel hungry and was still full of energy after taking it. Yang Song just had to make sure to eliminate the sleeping effect of that pill to achieve that wonderful effect.
After that, Yang Song could write down and formula and give it to Yang Haonan to let him produce it in batch.
Speaking of which, now that Yang Song had the big Li Family in hand, he did not have to worry about being coerced when selling pills in Martial City at all. Azure Silk Pharmaceutical was one of the biggest giants in medicines and pills, so with such a giant, Yang Song's next plan regarding business would really go smoothly.
With that, Yang Song quickly browsed through the 10-day Sleeping Pill formula in his mind and wrote down all the raw materials.
Fortunately, all the raw materials were something that could be found easily in this world. Otherwise, Yang Song would have to scold the system for three days and three nights for providing him with a pill formula whose raw materials could only be found in the cultivation world.
