Capítulo 1082: Chapter 740: The Wan Family of Goldpool Visits (Part 2)

Lan Peng’s voice became increasingly muffled, no longer as hearty and grand as before.

Yang Zhenshan’s mood was equally somber; he hadn’t expected that condensing the Golden Body would be so difficult.

Previously, he thought the biggest trouble in breaking through to the Martial God Realm was the Golden Body Skill, but now it seems obtaining a Golden Body Skill book is not the hardest part.

He exhaled heavily and said, “I need a Golden Body Skill with Wood Attribute!”

No matter how difficult it is, he must make an attempt. His lifespan is still long; he can’t afford to stagnate and await death.

Effort is necessary regardless.

Moreover, he still has the Spirit Source Land.

Wait!

Thinking of the Spirit Source Land, Yang Zhenshan suddenly thought of an object that might serve as a spiritual object to forge his Spirit Base.

Taoist Intent Sacred Lotus!

The Taoist Intent Sacred Lotus naturally hasn’t reached five hundred years, but being a naturally cultivated object from the Spirit Source Land, its spirituality should be quite high.

Perhaps the Taoist Intent Sacred Lotus could be used to forge the Spirit Base.

Thinking of this, Yang Zhenshan’s somber mood instantly dissipated substantially.

Lan Peng looked up at him and once again laughed heartily, “There is an opportunity, but it requires some waiting!”

“Waiting for what?” Yang Zhenshan was very curious.

“Waiting for the City Lord to break through and come out.” Lan Peng showed a peculiar smile, “Actually, I initially wanted to ask for your help, but now I can only tell you, it’s very dangerous. If you wish to go, you must be prepared to possibly lose your life at any moment!”

Upon hearing this, Yang Zhenshan was even more intrigued.

“I’m not afraid of danger. The key is whether I can obtain the Wood Attribute Golden Body Skill?”

Lan Peng laughed and said, “That depends on your luck! Let’s talk about it then; it’s too early now. If the City Lord fails to break through in time, we won’t have a chance!”

Yang Zhenshan’s mind raced; this Lan Peng was being quite cryptic.

It seems like a significant matter, but he couldn’t guess what it might be.

This could involve the secrets of the Sea of Spirit, but unfortunately, he currently knows very little about those secrets.

“Let me know when the time comes!” Yang Zhenshan said softly.

“Mm!”

Afterward, the two shifted the topic to the situation in the west.

After Dazhao’s downfall, several dynasties emerged in the west, with Dayun Dynasty being the strongest, occupying Dazhao’s original Capital City and thirteen northern counties.

Additionally, there are three more dynasties in the south: Tianwu Dynasty, Dazhen Dynasty, and Nanzhao Dynasty.

Tianwu Dynasty is located in the southwest, established by the Tianwu Sect, occupying lands of four counties; this Tianwu Sect is the same that sent Zhou Tianci away decades ago.

Dazhen Dynasty is in the southeast, established by the noble Tan family from Dazhao, occupying six counties.

While Nanzhao Dynasty was established by the royal family Wei within Dazhao, occupying five counties.

Dazhao originally had thirty-six counties, apart from the four dynasties and the Lu family from Tianqu, the remaining four counties are occupied by sect forces, which are the four sects in the north: Shaking Mountain Sect, Cold Cloud Sect, Sword Valley, and Changqing Sect. The lands occupied by these four sects are poor areas, so nobody wants to manage them.

“I know about other sects, but what is Sword Valley?” Yang Zhenshan asked.

Shaking Mountain Sect occupies Lushan County, the place where they landed from the sea, so Yang Zhenshan is naturally knowledgeable about it.

Cold Cloud Sect is in the north of Ancient County, Cold Valley County; in the past few years, Yang Zhenshan has laid out plans in Cold Valley County. Lv Hua established a Secret Martial Guards base there, and Yang Zhenshan also assumed a new identity in the county to hide his origins.

Shangqing Sect is in the northwest of Ancient County, bordering it, which Yang Zhenshan is also familiar with.

Only Sword Valley is largely unknown to Yang Zhenshan.

“Don’t underestimate Sword Valley; it’s backed by Hidden Sword Mountain.” Lan Peng said.

“Hidden Sword Mountain? Another sect?”

Lan Peng nodded slightly, “The entrance to Hidden Sword Mountain is located in the northern mountains two thousand li away. Their strength is terrifying, possibly even stronger than the Three Sects of Spirit Show!”

Yang Zhenshan was stunned, “Then why haven’t I heard of Hidden Sword Mountain?”

“Because the relationship between the Three Sects and Hidden Sword Mountain hasn’t been good. Haha~~ You should know about it, but don’t spread it around, or it might reach the ears of the Three Sects and cause trouble for you!” Lan Peng said.

Yang Zhenshan nodded thoughtfully, surprised to learn of yet another powerful sect in the north. But it doesn’t seem to concern him as Lan Peng was just making small talk.

After chatting with Lan Peng for more than two hours, Yang Zhenshan got up and took leave, returning to Lingxi Mountain.

When he arrived at Lingxi Mountain, it seemed Tian Hu had been waiting outside for a long time.

Tian Hu and Wei Qianye have been living on Lingxi Mountain; now Tian Hu has broken through to the Innate Realm, and Wei Qianye is ten years old.

Tian Hu usually follows Yang Xiangheng, assisting him with some family matters, while Wei Qianye practices with Wang Lei.

“Family Head, Wan Jinsui, the Family Head of the Wan family from Golden Pond Mountain, is here for a visit. The Young Family Head is accompanying him in the hall!” Tian Hu reported immediately upon seeing Yang Zhenshan.

Yang Zhenshan handed the reins to Li Chang and asked puzzled, “What brings him here?”

This Wan family from Golden Pond Mountain is also a small family located northeast of Lingxi Mountain, about ten li away, sitting familiarly at the edge of the Sea of Spirit.

However, the Wan family is much wealthier than the Lingxi Yang family, owning over thirty acres of spirit fields and having a Golden Pond on Golden Pond Mountain. It’s said this Golden Pond produces over a thousand catties of Gold Attribute spirit water annually; though not highly valued, it provides the Wan family dozens of Spirit Stones income yearly.

“The other party brought gifts, evidently to ask for something!” Tian Hu said.

Yang Zhenshan stepped inside, knowing the Yang family and Wan family, although neighbors, have not had good relations.

The Nanqing Xiang family has been encroaching on Yang family’s properties, and the Wan family didn’t miss the chance to profiteer.

In recent years, Yang Zhenshan has kept a low profile and hasn’t interacted with the Wan family.

Arriving at the main hall, Yang Zhenshan saw Yang Xiangheng awkwardly chatting with a man in his forties.

Clearly, Yang Xiangheng didn’t seem to like him much.

Seeing Yang Zhenshan, Yang Xiangheng promptly stood up to introduce, “Great Uncle, this is the Wan Family Head Wan Jinsui.”

Wan Jinsui’s body was stout, his round head resembling a full winter melon, firmly seated on his broad shoulders. The cheeks puffed out like leavened steamed buns, squeezing his eyes into crescent moons.

His face was blooming with smiles, lips raised high, emitting a glow like a flower blossoming at peak spring, giving off an innocent vibe that made him seem amiable at a glance.

“I, junior Wan Jinsui, greet Senior Yang. I’ve long admired Senior Yang, yet been occupied by worldly matters, unable to visit. Taking advantage of today’s free time, I came unannounced; I hope Senior can forgive me!” Wan Jinsui spoke with a pleasant tone and kind smile.

But he apparently lacked Lan Peng’s insight, failing to gauge Yang Zhenshan’s cultivation, or he might have sweetened his speech even more.

Yang Zhenshan looked at him, internally chanting, “To offer kindness without necessity, either a traitor or a thief!”

Saying admiration is nonsense.

These years, the Wan family indeed avoided the Yang family, fearing they’d seek revenge, remembering well when they exploited the Yang family’s misfortunes.

Ever since Yang Zhenshan befriended Lan Peng, the Wan family feared retaliation helped by Lan Peng.

Thus, the Wan family dared not provoke the Yang family or visit them.

While pondering, Yang Zhenshan maintained a mild smile, saying, “So it’s the Wan Family Head, please have a seat!”

He glanced at the numerous gift boxes on the side table.

Over a dozen varied-sized gift boxes, certainly bringing many gifts.

Is this an apology visit?
