Chapter 761: Chapter 472: Ambush on the Way!_2

At this moment, Yang Fu suddenly became aware.

“Last year, after Qiangzheng finished his challenge, he hardly went out… Did you deliberately instruct him?”

“Yes, in front of Golden Core Stage cultivators… we are merely ants.”

“Hmm…”

Yang Fu hummed for a long while, becoming increasingly convinced of Yang Qiangjing’s meticulous actions.

The hiding this past year might have saved Yang Qiangzheng from a disaster.

And this year, Yang Qiangjing became even more famous, surpassing Yang Qiangzheng, and barring unexpected events, she wouldn’t leave Bright City the entire year.

There she had her safehouse and array, protecting her comprehensively; even if Feng Yi came, it would be difficult to kill her.

Up ahead, the outline of Bright City appeared.

The group slightly relaxed.

Yang Fuqing’s face showed a hint of smile.

“Scaring ourselves… Actually, the Danai Dynasty is still quite safe now.”

Buzz!!!

A strand of piano sound resonated from below.

Everyone and the spirit beasts couldn’t help but be drawn to it.

Yang Qiangjing’s heart suddenly exploded with endless crisis!!!

“Enemies are here!”

She didn’t believe in coincidences; this peculiar piano sound was directed at her!

Yang Fu’s mind shook, also feeling a moment of trance, as if a grand Immortal Palace appeared before him, needing only to deliver the key in his hand to open the palace doors and achieve immortality!

Inside was everything he desired.

He only needed to hand over the key…

…..

Yang Qiangjin took the first place, shocking everyone.

Even the Yang Family, who was mentally prepared, couldn’t believe it.

60 floors!

11 more than the previous first place Yang Qiangzheng’s 49 floors!

“Rounding up and it’s almost cleared… My sister is truly amazing…”

Yang Qiangjin clicked her tongue, wondering if she had been speaking too loudly with the confidence of her sister’s identity…

At this moment, Yang Qiangjing emerged from the Ancient Secret Realm.

Swish, swish, swish!

Everyone turned their heads, staring at this girl, but no one knew what to say…

Praising the strong, encouraging the weak, but this strength surpassed comprehension… Leaving only silence.

For a moment, it led to a bizarre quiet.

Everyone seemed to be gazing up at this new generation of king, as if seeing the future…

Liu Changqing held a natural wooden stick, swinging it casually, its life aura as boundless as today’s spring.

He gazed at Yang Qiangjing’s figure, lost in thought.

Yin Family members also paid their respects, meanwhile greed flashing in their eyes, contemplating how powerful a corpse puppet could be crafted from Yang Qiangjing’s body.

The moment of universal attention made Murong Ziyuan feel dazed, as if seeing herself on the immortal path years ago…

Gallant in fine clothes, outstanding in the world.

“Each generation is stronger than the last…”

As the atmosphere reached its peak, the Ancient Secret Realm’s door flashed, and a Douyang cultivator emerged.

“Hahahaha! I said last year was too tiring, couldn’t perform well, and this year I must make up for it!”

“I did it!”

At that moment, he looked around, everyone was staring at him with three parts surprise, three parts admiration, three parts fervor, and one part fear.

Especially Murong Ziyuan’s gaze of a peer… Absolutely the greatest encouragement in recent years!

Everyone would understand, I, a Douyang cultivator, am not trash!

“How did she… accomplish it?”

“She was so poor last year, such terrifying progress!”

“Could you share your success experience?”

Listening to the murmurs of the surrounding cultivators, the Douyang cultivator felt his whole body bubbling, as if burning!

Indeed, only the strong are respected!

I, a Douyang cultivator, made it!

He took a deep breath, assuming the stance of a master, nodding to those around.

“Cultivate more, think more, enjoy less, hunt demons more! I did it, so can you!”

With that, his lips curled with a Dragon King’s arc.

The Douyang cultivator felt at this moment, the whole world belonged to him!

Murong Ziyuan: “?”

Yang Fu: “??”

Everyone: “???”

“What, is he rambling about?”

“Miss Jing, say a few words, everyone’s waiting for your insights!”

“What are the challenges on the later levels? How difficult are they?”

Listening to all this, the Douyang Cultivator gradually realized something was off…

Elder Chen Tianxiang, holding back a laugh, tugged on the sleeve of the Douyang Cultivator, the greatest gesture of camaraderie he could offer as a fellow disciple.

The Douyang Cultivator suddenly lifted his head to look at the [Trial List].

His information wasn’t there!

“Huh? My… my 22 levels? Why aren’t they reported this year?”

Chen Tianxiang: “Because this year, even the 100th place reached 22 levels… You’re ranked beyond 100th.”

“This…”

The Douyang Cultivator thought he was the only one making progress, but it turned out that even 22 levels couldn’t make it to the list!

“Wait!”

Suddenly, he jerked his head up to look at the Trial List.

“60 levels!?” (cracked voice)

And when he glanced at Yang Qiangjing, who hadn’t said much, he noticed she had slipped away to Yang Fu’s side.

“Uncle, Aunt, take me back to the city! Quick! Or my life will be in danger!”

Yang Qiangjing looked tense, keeping a vigilant eye on the Yin Family people.

Yang Fuqing: “Hmm? What’s wrong?”

Her Spirit Beast was observing the area, finding no unusual activity from the Demon Clan.

Yang Fu’s expression turned stern.

It only took him a moment to understand what Yang Qiangjing was afraid of…

At that time, Yang Fujian was inside challenging, he was the Yang Family’s only mainstay.

“Senior Brother Wu Yi, come with me!”

Wu Yi had not yet taken his challenge, so there was still time.

“Let’s go.”

Without asking any questions, Wu Yi picked up his broadsword and left with Yang Fu, Yang Fuqing, and Yang Qiangjing.

A group of Spirit Beasts escorted them, leaving directly!

Simultaneously, he sent a voice transmission to Murong Ziyan.

“Uncle Master, please don’t let the Yin family people follow, I fear they mean harm to Xiaojing…”

“Hmm, I’ll keep an eye on them.”

Being equally talented, Murong Ziyan had encountered various assassination attempts over the years too; she knew the fate of a cultivator who showed potential far exceeding ordinary people without strong backing.

So she readily agreed to help.

On the way, Yang Fu frequently looked back, fortunately, no one seemed to make any move.

Perhaps Murong Ziyan’s unintentional display of a trace of thunder intent and her cold, killing intent gaze deterred most people.

Over the year, everyone knew Murong Ziyan’s close relationship with the deceased Head of the Yang Family.

Just as back then when Yang Shi opened a workshop in Qingshi Town, now the Yang Family was also under Murong Ziyan’s protection, making the Liu Family and Yin Family afraid of acting against the Yang Family.

“Sigh… my Senior Sister Murong~ fierce and few words, still so reliable.”

Yang Genshuo, just having watched Yang Qiangjing’s challenge, naturally noticed Yang Qiangjing’s self-preservation, feeling grateful for Murong Ziyan’s assistance.

Those Yin Family people… didn’t look like good people.

After leaving the Devil Wind Forest, the group breathed a sigh of relief.

Yang Qiangjing sat on the back of the big cat, constantly pondering some matters.

“Uncle, once my brother finishes his challenge, make sure to bring him back too, my brother and I are making too much of a scene… easy to provoke jealousy, could cause trouble.”

At this time, Yang Fu realized belatedly.

“Last year, after Qiangzheng’s challenge, he barely went out… did you specifically instruct him?”

“Yes, in front of Golden Core Stage cultivators… we’re just like ants.”

“Hmm…”

Yang Fu gave a long hum, increasingly feeling that Yang Qiangjing handled matters flawlessly.

Perhaps hiding for a year had already spared Yang Qiangzheng from a disastrous misfortune.

This year, Yang Qiangjing became even more famous, overshadowing Yang Qiangzheng, and unless something unexpected happened, she wouldn’t leave Bright City for the coming year.

There, her lab and array formations could protect her completely, even if Feng Yi came, it would be difficult to kill her.

Up ahead, the outline of Bright City appeared.

The group felt a bit more at ease.

Yang Fuqing had a smile on her face.

“Frightening oneself… actually, the current Danai Dynasty is still very safe.”

Buzz!!!

A strand of piano sound echoed from below.

All people and Spirit Beasts couldn’t help being drawn towards it.

In Yang Qiangjing’s heart, an endless sense of crisis exploded!!!

“There are enemies!”

She didn’t believe in coincidences; this strange piano sound was directed at her!

Yang Fu’s mind staggered, also feeling a moment of dizziness, as if a vision of an Immortal Palace appeared before him, and if he just handed over the key in his hand, he would open the gates to the Immortal Palace and become immortal!

Inside, lay everything he desired.

All he needed was to hand over the key in his hand…
