Chapter 100 - 99: The Arrogant Son, Yang Fushuo

Chapter 100: Chapter 99: The Arrogant Son, Yang Fushuo

The Yang Family had attracted the attention of the Xuan Stone Sect, the Xiang Family, and the Demon Path; they couldn’t afford to show their faces in the Danai Dynasty for the time being, but they could re-establish a foundation in the Fierce Sun Dynasty.

During this time, Yang Shi had been making preparations for the Yang Family to make its move.

Hu Zi had already arrived in the Fierce Sun Dynasty ahead of time to gather information and purchase assets.

The choices of his two sons had not surprised him.

Yang Fu was composed and stable, with extremely high cultivation talent. After refining two strands of Innate Spiritual Energy, his strength had reached an extremely high level, and with the excellent Xuan Stone Sect disciple Chu Qiao teaching him magic and combat skills, there was absolutely no need to worry in that regard.

And let’s not forget, over the years, Yang Genshuo had used almost all of the Incense Fire Value on “[Blessings: Absorption],” and most of the Demon Beasts obtained had been given to the brothers, Yang Fu and Yang Fushuo.

Their talents and physical bodies… far exceeded those of ordinary cultivators.

Even though they didn’t focus much on Body Cultivation, nourished by the essence of life, they both were quickly reaching the standard of Innate Grandmasters.

Among Qi Refining Stage Cultivators, they were considered among those with the strongest bodies.

Jiang Xiaobai knew Yang Shi was going to take his two sons to make their way in the Fierce Sun Dynasty and felt reluctant to part, but she didn’t say much. She packed three full bags with various Magic Artifacts, Talismans, Spirit Food… for the three men, along with two Storage Rings filled with a large number of Spirit Stones and Grain Avoidance Cakes.

“During this trip, make sure to take care of yourselves, and don’t fight over youthful righteousness. As long as the green hills are there, we need not worry about firewood; Immortal Cultivation is the path to a long life. With the ancestor looking after you, you all will someday achieve greatness on the Dao…”

“Shuo’er, try not to make spiritual food for others to eat… it won’t be easy to make friends that way. Study more about the Alchemy Dao; the ancestor has high hopes for you.”

“Fu’er, you are steady, so mom won’t say much.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Fushuo showed a defiant face: “Why only pick on me, Mom! Today, I must set the record straight on my spiritual food! Before we leave, I’ll show everyone what I can do!”

Upon hearing this, Yang Shi was startled!

“Since everything is ready, let’s set off now!”

If they didn’t leave now, they might not be able to at all!

Yang Fushuo’s spiritual food brought a touch of misfortune to those who ate it, yet for some reason, after he ate it himself, it was as if nothing happened…

Yang Genshuo believed it was due to his Talent, naturally good at Alchemy, with digestion and detoxification abilities far exceeding others.

This year, 8-year-old Yang Fuqing held the hand of her little brother, Yang Fujian.

“Dad, big brother, second brother, take your time on the road and watch out for bad Demon Beasts.”

The big parrot in the tree also learned to say, “Take your time! Take your time! Bad bad! Bad bad!”

And Yang Fujian pursed his lips firmly and waved vigorously at them.

Liu Zihan came over and ruffled his head.

“Dad’s leaving, don’t you have anything to say to him?”

Yang Fujian hugged his sword and thought for a bit, then murmured:

“I will practice my swordsmanship diligently.”

Yang Shi waved to his family members: “We’re off!”

Liu Zihan called out from behind: “My husband… come back soon.”

“Hmm.”

The Giant Winged Bat spread its wings, carrying the three towards the Fiery Fire Dynasty.

As Liu Zihan watched this scene of departure, it seemed to bring something to mind, and two streams of hot tears ran down her face.

…

Outside the Dan Fire Sect.

Yang Fushuo waved at the Giant Winged Bat in the sky.

“Dad, you and brother go on, watch how I speed through the Dan Fire Sect and become a legendary Alchemy Grandmaster!”

“I have the protection of the great ancestor; don’t worry!”

“Haha~ Dan Fire Sect, here I come!”

Yang Genshuo looked at Yang Fushuo, who was as excited as a Husky that had just been let out, and his face showed helplessness.

“Fushuo is really… quite a character.”

Yang Fushuo was the person in the Yang Family who liked talking to the great ancestor the most.

Ever since gaining a sense of awareness, he had shown an extremely strong desire to communicate and share, wanting the whole Yang Family to know about any little achievement, completely opposite to his brother, Yang Fu’s temperament.

And he liked to make all kinds of attempts!

The great ancestor that the Yang Family respected the most was also frequently called upon by him for a chat.

Since the Yang Family had been living in the Devil Wind Forest for the past 10 years, life had been rather dull, and over the course of a year, Yang Genshuo hardly flipped through a few Character Cards.

So when he was free, he would chat with Yang Fushuo and even gave him many random books to read.

Yang Fushuo’s way of making spiritual food was learned from a book he had read before, titled “Great British Food Appreciation.”

Regarding this… Yang Genshuo could only express his sympathies to the Yang Family members.

But he was very fond of this child, because Yang Fushuo was the most like him in the Yang Family.

“Speedy mastery… Have I used this term with the kid? He’s learned it so thoroughly.”

After sending Yang Fushuo off, Yang Shi took Yang Fu to the far-off True Fire Sect.

Yang Fushuo, with a pack on his back, climbed up to the entrance of the Dan Fire Sect.

The sect was built on top of a massive volcano, with layers upon layers of peaks reaching straight into the clouds!

In the sky, clouds of various colors floated faintly, and wisps of smoke rose from each hilltop, presenting a particularly sulfuric aesthetic beauty.

“Halt! Who are you, and what is your business at our Dan Fire Sect?”

Two disciples clad in black and red Daoist robes blocked Yang Fushuo’s ascent, sizing him up.

Yang Fushuo looked up, giving them a brilliant smile.

“I, Yang Fushuo, am here to seek a master and learn the craft!”

“The annual recruitment of outer disciples hasn’t started yet. Go back, and come again next year.”

With a casual flick of his head, Yang Fushuo said, “Heh, outer disciples? Is your Dan Fire Sect really that remarkable? An 18-year-old Qi Refining Stage Cultivator only qualifies to be an outer disciple?”

The two gatekeeping disciples were suddenly startled.

“You are… a Qi Cultivation Stage senior!?”

Yang Fushuo’s palm flipped open, a wisp of pale blue True Fire floated out. The suppression from the Heavenly Level Spiritual Fire turned the two Fetal Breathing Stage gatekeeping disciples pale, as the flames could easily kill them if even slightly unleashed.

They had never felt this way in front of other Qi Refining Stage Cultivators.

“Senior, please follow me this way. Our Dan Fire Sect’s most welcome arrivals are Qi Refining Stage Cultivators from the True Fire Sect!”

“Surely you came because you saw our friendly sect’s recruitment notice?”

“Of course!” Yang Fushuo didn’t even blink.

“Do you have an appointment with a Peak Master?”

“No, just arrange someone with good alchemy techniques for me.”

“Understood.”

The two disciples nodded. Since there was no appointment, they would let the various Peak Masters choose. Which Peak Master of our Dan Fire Peak wasn’t skilled in alchemy?

The two led Yang Fushuo to the Preaching Institute.

In the yard, there were hundreds of Pill Furnaces, beneath which the fire from the Earth Veins blazed fiercely. Many Cultivators were refining elixirs here.

Several stern-looking masters moved among them, continuously instructing the disciples in their alchemy.

“Please wait here briefly. After the alchemy class is over, you can go to the front to pay respects to a master, and the Peak Masters will then assess you.”

“Thank you, brothers!” Yang Fushuo gave a bow and casually dropped out ten Low Grade Spirit Stones into the hands of the two gatekeeping disciples.

With joy on their faces, they said, “Then we’ll congratulate you in advance, Senior Brother!”

“If there’s anything we can help you with in the future, just let us know.”

After the gatekeeping disciples left, Yang Fushuo watched the Qi Refining Stage Cultivators refine their elixirs in the square.

They meticulously melted each material in order, then carefully poured them into the Pill Furnace. They then used the Earth Vein fire to burn away impurities… After a whole process, they would be sweating profusely, only to end up with a pot of charcoal.

“Pfft!”

“How clumsy, who refines pills like this? So slow and so poor!”

“Just mix all the materials together, knead them, place them together, and with one burn of True Fire, compact them into a mass and wouldn’t that make a pill?”

A disciple beside him was already upset from his failed alchemy, and upon hearing Yang Fushuo’s grandiose statements, he became infuriated.

“Which peak’s disciple are you? Spouting nonsense here, have you even properly read ‘Introduction to Dan Fire Sect’s Elixirs’? If the path of alchemy was as you recklessly claim, then wouldn’t alchemists be everywhere?”

“Have you read it thoroughly?”

“Of course! I know it by heart!”

“Then why didn’t you succeed?”

The Alchemy Disciple Huang Sheng suddenly turned red in the face, stuttering, “Refining pills… it’s normal to have success and failure in alchemy. This is… a normal failure. The next furnace will definitely… definitely succeed.”

“Hahaha~ I like the lack of conviction in your self-justification,” Yang Fushuo patted his shoulder as if he was patting a student on the back.

Huang Sheng bristled at once.

“You think you can do it? Then you try refining the next batch of Gathering Fire Pills!”

“Gathering Fire Pill?” Yang Fushuo was hearing about this elixir for the first time. He glanced at the three medicinal ingredients next to the Pill Furnace and asked, “Are these the ingredients for the Gathering Fire Pill?”

“Heh, you spout grand words without even remembering the recipe for a Gathering Fire Pill… I’d like to see if you can make a pill,” said Huang Sheng with a sharp tone.

Yang Fushuo’s arrival also drew the attention of several Foundation Establishment Stage Peak Masters.

“This person… doesn’t seem to be a disciple of our Dan Fire Sect, does he?”
