Two updates today~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Don’t wait for tonight’s chapter.
*************************************
"Brother Ling..." Meng Wuya was greatly startled; Ling Taixu’s words instantly made him realize a few things.
Ling Taixu was clearly intending to risk his life fighting Yang Bai. Although he possessed a cultivation base at the second level of the Transcendent Realm, facing Yang Bai would mean certain death.
Ling Taixu was still brooding over the fact that he had once nurtured Yang Bai. Since he couldn’t destroy the latter, perhaps he intended to let Yang Bai destroy him instead—that was likely Ling Taixu’s thinking.
Having seen through this, Meng Wuya’s expression grew solemn.
Over so many years, Manager Meng had few close friends. Xiao Fusheng from Cloud Yin Peak in the Medicine King Valley could barely be counted as one; the only other was Ling Taixu. Though his relationship with Yang Kai was quite good, the latter was a junior. Now that his old friend was heading to his doom, Meng Wuya naturally couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.
"If Brother Ling has made up his mind, then let us both rush to Zhongdu. We can look out for each other," Meng Wuya said.
"Brother Meng..." Ling Taixu was slightly moved.
"By going with you, I can ensure you all stay safe," Meng Wuya said with a faint smile, looking at Yang Kai. "When do you plan to set out?"
"Wait a few more days. The four Blood Guards that Big Brother and Second Brother brought are currently at a critical juncture. Once they break through, we’ll leave," Yang Kai explained.
By then, they would have thirteen Transcendent Realm Blood Guards, plus Meng Wuya, Ling Taixu, the Earth Demon, and Li Yuanchun. Their lineup was already unprecedentedly powerful.
Moreover, today they had even brought Lu Si into the fold, another Transcendent Realm expert.
This kind of force, while perhaps insufficient to quell the turmoil in Zhongdu entirely, was more than enough to guarantee their own safety in Yang Kai’s plan. Unless Yang Bai, the Evil Master, attacked them at any cost.
After the discussion was settled, Yang Kai rushed out to inform Lu Si. Upon hearing that Yang Kai was actually willing to lead people to Zhongdu, Lu Si was so pleasantly surprised he didn’t know what to say. He kept praising Yang Kai for his righteousness and consideration of the big picture, and declared that the entire Lu family was willing to follow him.
Several days of peace passed. The four Blood Guards brought by Yang Wei and Yang Zhao were still in seclusion, attempting their breakthrough to the Transcendent Realm. It had already been half a year since they arrived. For the first three months, Yang Kai had vigorously trained them, using the Myriad Medicine Spirit Liquid to cleanse their meridians and strengthen their bones, allowing them to advance to the ninth layer of the Shenyou Realm.
In the following three months, he provided them with the Myriad Medicine Spirit Paste to aid their breakthrough to the Transcendent Realm. Now, they were on the verge of success.
During these days, the members of the Lu family were also resting in the mansion.
Everything about the estate left Lu Si and the others stunned.
Eight out of every ten warriors coming and going were at the Shenyou Realm. The remaining two, even if not at the Shenyou Realm, were at least at the eighth layer of the Zhenyuan Realm.
Many among them were disciples of the younger generation!
Young people not yet twenty had actually reached this level. Lu Si was both shocked and envious.
Did the Lu family have anything like this? At twenty, reaching the Zhenyuan Realm would be considered talented in his family—disciples to be nurtured with great care.
But at Yang Kai’s manor? The Zhenyuan Realm was nothing.
Nine Transcendent Realm Blood Guards, plus four other top-tier Transcendent experts—such a manor’s strength already surpassed that of any single one of the Eight Great Families of Zhongdu!
Lu Si and the members of the Lu family had been acting very reserved these past few days.
After witnessing the power and lineup of Yang Kai’s estate, they felt their Lu family seemed as meager as a minor clan, and they couldn’t help but feel a step below. How could they dare to be presumptuous?
Seven days later, a massive surge of energy suddenly erupted skyward.
A grand, heaven-and-earth phenomenon reappeared. Lu Si burst out of his room, staring dazedly at the immense energy gathering in the sky, his lips trembling uncontrollably.
Someone had broken through above the Shenyou Realm!
And it wasn’t just one person!
Two had broken through at the same time!
This wasn’t the end; two more powerful auras burst forth.
Lu Si stood there petrified, as if struck dumb.
Li Yuanchun from the overseas Taiyi Sect had, at some point, appeared beside Lu Si. Gazing at the sky together, he let out a soft sigh. "This is nothing yet. You haven’t seen nine people break through the Shenyou Realm one after another."
A hint of emotion tinged his voice.
Lu Si looked at him and cupped his fists. "May I have your name, sir?"
"Li Yuanchun of the overseas Taiyi Sect!"
"The Taiyi Sect?" Lu Si was startled. "Is it that superpower, the Taiyi Sect?"
Li Yuanchun looked slightly awkward and waved his hand. "Brother Lu flatters me. Let’s not mention superpowers here. Compared to Young Master Yang’s estate, my Taiyi Sect… heh… is incomparable."
Lu Si nodded in deep agreement. Not only was the Taiyi Sect incomparable to Yang Kai’s estate—even the Eight Great Families couldn’t compare!
This was the true top force under heaven! It had completely surpassed the historical foundation of any sect or clan.
"Brother Lu, do you have any granddaughters?" Li Yuanchun suddenly asked a rather off-topic question.
"This old man was obsessed with cultivation all his life and have no direct descendants," Lu Si said, confused. "Why do you ask?"
"Your Lu family is a first-rate clan after all—you must have some young and beautiful women?"
"Well, yes, quite a few."
"Then hurry up and get married into the family! I truly envy you inland sects and clans. Here you have such a brilliant young man appearing. If you don’t build connections now, Brother Lu, when will you? If my Taiyi Sect were inland, forget granddaughters—I, Li, would stuff even my own daughters into Young Master Yang’s arms."
