Chapter 203 - 201 The Fool Yang Qiangyou

Chapter 203: Chapter 201 The Fool Yang Qiangyou

“But you won’t get the chance to cause trouble anymore, the Yang Family isn’t something you three stray dogs can mess with.”

Baji, hidden in the shadows, snorted coldly.

The Guo Family trio’s whispers were overheard by him without missing a single word.

Once the Guo Family trio left, a group of assassins hidden in the darkness followed after them…

After leaving the territory governed by Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect, 10 cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage revealed their forms.

“Heaven and Earth Net!”

A Gold Element net descended from the sky, and the ten cultivators operated an array, directly ensnaring the Guo Family trio inside, causing them to be greatly shocked!

“Ghost Shadow Tower!”

“Someone hired assassins to deal with us!”

“Who is it? Could it be the Jin Family wants to utterly annihilate us!?”

The ten masked Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators were shrouded in black mist, making it impossible to gauge their depth.

Without a single word of unnecessary chatter, the ten launched their killing moves!

Thud, thud, thud!

Guo Long, Guo Hu, and Guo Xingxing, the three brothers… perished.

They died without ever knowing who had gone to such lengths to hire Ghost Shadow Tower’s assassins against them.

“The mission is complete, please pay the remaining fee.”

Baji walked over from behind, tossing a small pouch containing sparkling, translucent Mid Grade Spirit Stones infused with Dao Essence.

“Farewell! We look forward to your next cooperation with Ghost Shadow Tower.”

The ten assassins, taking the corpses of the Guo Family trio, vanished into the air without a trace, as if nothing had happened.

Baji returned to the Yang Family’s Immortal Clan residence, where they were still celebrating Yang Qiang’s birthday, bustling with excitement.

“Family Head, everything has been taken care of…”

Baji made a brief report of the recent events.

“Mhm, go get some rest.”

Yang Fu nodded, then turned back to mingle joyfully with the visiting guests.

He shook his head at the Guo Family trio’s overestimation of their abilities.

‘I had no intention of killing you, but your larcenous hearts were undeterred…’

‘Did you really think I wouldn’t see your little schemes?’

‘On this Spirit Miao Continent, the role of Spirit Stones is much greater than in most dynasties…’

Yang Fu didn’t even have to lift a finger, and the Guo Family trio simply vanished from the Human World.

This demonstration of the Yang Family’s enormous financial power was behind it all.

The Yang Family purchased 30,000 Five Elements Nourishing Yuan Pills from the Fierce Sun Dynasty, each yielding a profit of 10 Low Grade Spirit Stones, and had no trouble selling them under Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect’s Immortal Clans. They earned 300,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones in one go!

Converted into Mid Grade Spirit Stones, frequently used by Foundation Establishment cultivators, that was a total of 300 stones.

Hiring Ghost Shadow Tower to kill an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator cost 50 Mid Grade Spirit Stones. The lives of the three Foundation Establishment stage members of the Guo Family weren’t worth as many Spirit Stones as the Yang Family made in half a year.

Yang Fu didn’t need to take risks; he simply released tasks through his status as Deputy Pavilion Master in Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect to track the trio’s movements, having the adept-at-Concealment Baji follow them… waiting for the right moment.

One fatal blow.

Yang Fu wasn’t proud of this; if anything, he became even more cautious.

“The recent excavation of the Earth Crystal Mine was too hasty, the secrecy was inadequate… Now all the other Immortal Clans are aware that my Yang Family has an Earth Crystal Mine output.”

“The Spirit Stones earned from this mine are second only to selling Elixirs. Best to be more cautious from now on.”

“The defense forces at the Family’s residence are still insufficient; we need to arm them further…”

This year, every time Yang Fu returned, he would upgrade the defenses of the Yang Family’s Immortal Clan residence, but it always seemed insufficient. Even a Golden Core Stage cultivator could break through… which never felt quite safe to him.

All these events… Yang Fushuo was completely unaware of, his days filled with nothing but Alchemy and Cultivation, dutifully serving the ancestors.

Yang Fu didn’t want his lively and joyful younger brother to bear too much burden in his heart.

‘Let me shoulder everything for the family.’

Not to mention Yang Fushuo being in the dark, even Yang Genshuo, from beyond the screen, could only speculate on the outcomes of Yang Fu’s maneuvers without actually seeing when he had laid out this Heaven and Earth Net…

“Yang Fu has grown up; he looks like a father now, and like the Family Head too.”

Yang Fu was born with a steady disposition, and early on, he demonstrated Spiritual Wisdom and loved reading military strategies and tactics. Yang Genshuo was sure his son was cut out to be the Family Head.

“With two branches of the Yang Family, two Family Heads, I actually think Yang Fu might perform even better than Yang Shi…”

Yang Shi still busied himself sorting out the internal affairs of the Danai Dynasty, from which the Yang Family profited a great deal during these tumultuous times…

As victors of war, the Yang Family received a large share of the spoils.

The best Spirit Fields, the choicest cultivation sites, and slanted resources from the sect…

All ensured that the future children of the Yang Family were born at the pinnacle of the Danai Dynasty.

Even Hu Zi returned to his hometown, carving out his own Family legacy, with his wife from the Fierce Sun Dynasty and their sons and daughters, along with six additional concubines, the family thriving.

Moreover, with the help of Yang Shi’s Meteor Star Immortal Mansion, Yang Fuqing and Jiang Xiaobai’s Cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds!

Liu Zihan, as the years passed by, spent her days in their old family home in Qingshi County, watching Yang Fujian venture into the Devil Wind Forest and waiting for her father’s return.

“Time in the Immortal Cultivation World passes so quickly… sometimes a whole day of busyness is just refining one batch of Elixirs, sitting in the Practice Room for a week, and Beast Taming is a lengthy process too.”

“Time, fast forward.”

The images on the four screens began to speed up.

But this time, there was an additional small split screen depicting the daily sound sleep of Yang Qiang.

Although he didn’t understand anything, he had already started to make his own contribution to the Yang family.

Being a fake eye planted in the Yang family’s residence.

When Yang Fu and Yang Fushuo were cultivating in the sect, Yang Genshuo was also able to keep an eye on the Yang family’s residence at any time.

Time suddenly fast-forwarded to two months later.

[Year 41, Yang Fu’s wife Shen Yao gave birth to a son, the Yang family’s lineage is thriving, incense +200!]

Another one!

“Yang Fu is awesome! Birthing two children in one year, truly worthy of being my Yang family’s second family head, much stronger than your father at this time!”

Yang Genshuo thought that if there was a chance, he could even let Yang Fu take another concubine. After all, his life span was far longer than that of the mortal Yang Shi, and he was still in the era where one shouldn’t underestimate the young and poor.

It’s the peak of fertility!

At this age, not to mention childbearing, even picking up bottles he would be two body lengths ahead of others!

After the excitement of the Yang family members, it was time for the ancestors to name the child.

First, look at the talent!

[Name: ?]

[Identity: Son of Yang Fu and Shen Yao.]

[Lifespan: 1/150]

[Spirit Root: Four Spirit Roots (Gold: 25 Wood: 25 Fire: 25 Earth: 25)]

[Realm: None]

[Comprehension: 20]

[Qi Fortune: 60]

[Talent: Fool (Heavenly Level), Handsome and Charming (Mortal Level)]

Seeing the talent for the Spirit Root, Yang Genshuo frowned.

“This is too even… And it’s kind of a waste, not even as good as Yang Fu’s Five Spirit Roots.”

At least Yang Fu’s initial Spirit Root talent was at 30 points.

The comprehension was quite ordinary, the only thing that gave Yang Genshuo a feeling of expectation was that high Qi Fortune of 60.

Looking at the talent again.

[Fool (Heavenly Level): Comprehension fixed at 20, Qi Fortune +40, Life Span +50, ordinary talent but blessed with good fortune, might trigger some special opportunities.]

[Handsome and Charming (Mortal Level), Qi Fortune +5, Charm +100, this child is naturally handsome.]

“No wonder the Qi Fortune is so high, it turns out it’s topped off by two talents.”

“But both talents… do not increase the speed of cultivation, and the comprehension is also low, equivalent to a blank slate, not to mention Yang Fushuo, I’m afraid he won’t even match the cultivation speed of his aunt Yang Fuqing, which is truly fatal.”

“Can Qi Fortune really help him reverse heaven and change fate? Hard to say…”

The future of this child was unclear to Yang Genshuo because Qi Fortune was too elusive.

On Yang Shi’s body, however, the effect of Qi Fortune protecting the body had been applied a few times.

Though he had experienced many ups and downs along the way, he always ended up with a good result.

Qi Fortune had played a role to some extent, Yang Genshuo couldn’t say for sure, but it definitely had some effect.

Seeing Yang Fu and Shen Yao waiting below for him to name the child, Yang Genshuo thought for a while…

Gave up thinking.

“Question: Based on this talent, give the child a three-character name, the first two characters being Yang Qiang.”

“Answer: Combining the mentioned talents: ‘Fool (Heavenly Level)’ and ‘Handsome and Charming (Mortal Level)’, we can see that this child has extremely high Qi Fortune and charm, as well as extra lifespan and certain good fortune. Despite the ordinary talent, he may encounter quite a few special opportunities in his life, and he is naturally attractive….”

This AI is becoming more and more useful!

After a long period of interaction, Yang Genshuo had already convinced the AI that he was in an Immortal Cultivation World…

Looking at the several names given by the AI, Yang Genshuo chose one that he liked and told it to Yang Fu.

“Yang Qiangyou.”

“This child is born with Qi Fortune and may have heaven’s blessing in the future.”

Yang family members all praised the ancestor’s choice of name.

As for this child, Yang Genshuo didn’t need to worry too much because his path… had to be opened by himself.

“I hope your Qi Fortune can lead you down the right path.”

“Children aren’t much to look at, grow up quickly!”

Time fast-forwarded again.

At this point, the Yang family had no potential enemies, and everything had entered the fast track of development.

In the blink of an eye, four years had passed.

At night, Yang Genshuo was dining outside with Xu Lingyue when suddenly his spiritual sense flickered, and an image appeared in his mind.

Yang Fu was burning incense to pray to his ancestor.

“Ancestor, the Jin Family from the Spirit Miao Continent has come, and they want half of the harvest from our family’s territory…”

“What should we do?”

The Jin Family?

Yang Genshuo flipped through his memory several times but didn’t remember which Immortal Clan this was. However, the situation that made Yang Fu pray to the ancestor must not be ordinary.

“Excuse me for a moment, there’s trouble at home.”

“Eh!”

Xu Lingyue watched as Yang Genshuo hurriedly drove away, while little Jojo stamped her foot on the ground hard.
