Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 455 – Assault

From the moment Yang Tiangang fell to the Buried Sky Ruins, to the moment he miraculously advanced into the realms of life, to the moment he appeared in front of the rest of the Madame Yang, to the moment he reached his doomsday, the moment they suddenly felt like the clouds in the sky had opened and the sun in the sky.

But no matter what, the news of Yang Junshan levelling up to the realms of life had greatly diluted the blow that Yang Tiangang’s fall had brought to the Yang Family, and it caused the originally floating heart of the Madame Yang’s clan to reunite.

At this time, the people of Madame Yang finally had the mood to express what kind of situation they would have been in if Yang Tiangang had not died, if both father and son were still alive, such as this.

Yang Xi understood the hidden meaning behind Yang Junshan’s words, and asked: “Xiaoshan, are you saying that your father’s loss at some Buried Sky Ruins is related to that Heaven-Shaken Sect?”

Yang Junshan said: “On this trip to the Buried Sky Ruins, aside from my father, there was also Wang Qian!”

“Wang Qian!” It must be him! ”

Yang Xi’s eyes immediately turned red. Back then, it was because of Yang Yan and Yang Jiao’s consecutive murders that this old man had suddenly gained an epiphany after arriving in the Wasteland Town. Now that he heard that Yang Tiangang was going with Wang Qian, he subconsciously determined that the culprit was Wang Qian.

Yang Junshan naturally did not know about the relationship between the Yang family’s elder siblings, but because Yang Xi’s emotions could affect quite a number of his family members, it caused them to suspect Wang Qian as well.

However, the Yang family did not lack rational people. Yang Junping and Su Baozhang looked at each other and did not say a word, but Yang Tianlei muttered: “Wang Qian is naturally our Yang family’s great enemy, but to think that just by thinking that he is the culprit while travelling with Ol ‘Three, it would be a little rash of him. If he was the one who did it, why didn’t Heaven-Shaken Sect say anything?”

“Is there even a need to ask?” Yang Xi was obviously not satisfied with his own son’s questioning, and said: “Wang Qian is from the Heaven-Shaken Sect, so there must be a burning passion between them, and then again, if you lose the real person, your family would no longer be strong, so for the Heaven-Shaken Sect, which is which is more important?”

It had to be said that what the old man said was very logical, at least he was right about the part where the Heaven-Shaken Sect was hiding the truth from the Yang family. Of course, it could also be to protect the Yang family, but Song Wei’s move to the Wasteland Town was more like taking over the control of the Yang family’s influence.

Yang Junshan said: “Heaven-Shaken Sect said that he wanted to keep the matter of my father’s fall into Buried Sky Ruins a secret, but in truth, I am afraid that Opening Spirit School already knows about this matter.”

Yang Xi immediately said, “It must have been that old fool Wang Qian who did this!”

But this time, Yang Tianlei did not ask Yang Junshan how he obtained the information, and only asked witrobing tone: “Xiong Family?”

Yang Tianlei knew about the chess piece that the Yang Family had buried in the Xiong Family, and Yang Junshan obviously understood what Yang Tianlei truly wanted to ask. He nodded and said, “That’s right, Wang Qian secretly leaked the news to the Xiong Family, and also leaked some information.

“The Yang Family shouldn’t be destroyed, at least for now!”

Song Wei looked at his teacher, and muttered: “Teacher means that Junior Brother Yang haossibility of advancing to the realms of life?”

“With the descent of the Alien Cultivator, the world is going to fall into chaos. At this time, any little bit of strength will make us cherish them, and that kid has good talent, with the possibility of obtaining the realms of life, our sect is no longer the same as before, and this time, Shi Tai’s death and the injuries sustained by Spiritual Master Ning Shi Jie are even more of a huge blow to the sect. At this time, a potential Adept Realm Cultivator who harbors goodwill towards the sect, might become a big help in the future!”

At this time, Song Wei’s eyes flashed, and said in a low voice: “Teacher, I heard that Shi Tai’s death and Daoist Master Ning Shijie’s injuries were all related to …”

“What did you hear?”

Spiritual Master Chen Ji directly interrupted Song Wei’s words, his strict eyes filled with warning. “Now that you have also become a Spiritual Master, you have the highest status in our sect. You don’t know the secrets of our sect, so when did you ever need to ‘hear’ about them?”

“Teacher has taught me a lesson, it is this disciple who is overly suspicious!”

Song Wei immediately understood the meaning behind his teacher’s words, he then changed the topic and said: “But if the Yang family does not give up control of the village protection formation, with just my cultivation at the early stage of the realms of life, it would be difficult for me to resist the pressure from the Opening Spirit School. Furthermore, Senior Master Qing Mu and Senior Zhu both intend to let me take over the village protection formation of the Yang family!”

Spiritual Master Chen Ji sighed, his eyes closed as though he was deep in thought. After a while, he suddenly said, “How long do you think it is possible for Spiritual Master Yang Tiangang to hide the matter of his death in the Buried Sky Ruins?”

Spiritual Master Song Wei was startled for a moment, then said with a wry smile, “Disciple does not know either, it is only a guess on his part. With Spiritual Master Wang Qian’s methods, since he had plotted against Spiritual Master Yang, it is inevitable that he would not follow to exterminate the Yang family!”

Spiritual Master Chen Ji’s expression changed to a dull expression, and said indifferently: “The fire in the middle will be controlled by you, you can’t destroy the village protection formation, and you also have to take over the Xishan Village’s village protection formation when the Yang Family took the initiative to ask for help.”

Spiritual Master Chen Ji paused for a moment and said angrily, “Even though the Heaven-Shaking Peak is destroyed, Senior Brother Qing Mu brought out a lot of inheritances. I never thought that those formation masters of our sect are not even comparable to a single strong disciple!”

“You mean to say that a few days ago, the Xishan Village’s village protection formation suddenly stopped working, and when you led your sect’s disciples to launch a sneak attack, you ended up losing and returning empty-handed?”

Spiritual Master Yuan Fei’s words were plain and indifferent, but Tan Shusheng, who was standing by his side, was drenched in sweat. He didn’t dare to move an inch as he said, “Yes!”

“Why didn’t you inform the other brothers?”

“Reporting to Martial Uncle, at that time, there was an urgent matter, so this disciple did not have the time to inform the others. Moreover, this disciple thought that the people he brought along were enough to destroy the Xishan Village, so he took the initiative to attack.

“Humph!”

Spiritual Master Yuan Fei’s light snort was likhunderclap that exploded in Tan Shusheng’s ears. “I’m afraid only the ‘hard work and effort’ is the truth.”

Tan Shusheng said in a trembling voice, “Disciple doesn’t dare, disciple doesn’t dare!”

The invisible pressure almost made him unable to breathe. Knowing that he felt like he was about to suffocate, Yuan Fei’s voice came from far away, “For now, your identity as a Successor Disciple will be relieved, if you can be the first one to kill your way into the Xishan Village, then I will not mind exchanging my identity as a Successor Disciple back for another Successor Disciple. Otherwise …”

“Disciple understands, disciple knows what to do!”

After watching Tan Shusheng lower his head and retreat, Spiritual Master Yuan Fei turned to the black clothed cultivator beside him and said, “Fellow Daoist Xiong, regarding the sudden collapse of the Xishan Village, you have a slow recovery. What do you think?”

Xiong Mantao was tall and sturdy, and his facial features were somewhat similar to Adept Chang Feng, but the gloomy expression on his face was very heavy, and upon hearing: “A few days ago, the time of village protection formation’s disintegration was quite similar to the time Alien Cultivator descended!”

Spiritual Master Yuan Fei laughed and said, “The day that the Alien Cultivator descends is also the day that the Buried Sky Ruins mutates. At that time, it would also be around the time Yang Tiangang fell.”

“In that case, Fellow Yuan and I seem to agree with your conjecture!”

Spiritual Master Yuan Fei laughed and said, “However, I heard that the Xishan Village’s village protection formation was built by the son of Yang Tiangang. But, your father was an accomplished array master.

When Yuan Fei saw Xiong Mantao’s sullen face, she laughed and stopped talking, only hearing him say, “It’s just a small cultivator at the Great Perfection Stage, do you really think that you can contend against a cultivator after learning a few array formations? If it wasn’t for Yang Tiangang pretending to big and eating the tiger after entering the realms of life, my father wouldn’t have been in trouble!”

Spiritual Master Xiong Mantao suddenly stood up and said: “Don’t worry, the Xishan Village will soon turn into ruins. I will help you take down the Wasteland Town, but the Yang family must be annihilated!”

Seeing that Xiong Mantao was about to leave, Spiritual Master Yuan Fei quickly said, “Fellow Daoist Xiong, if necessary, can you save the Xishan Village’s village protection formation for our sect?”

Xiong Mantao’s footsteps paused, and with a cold snort, light surged from his feet. He had already reached the eastern horizon.

After seeing Xiong Mantao leave, Spiritual Master Yuan Fei waved his hand behind him. A young cultivator in the late stage of the martial arts realm walked to her side and asked, “What instructions do you have for me, Teacher?”

If Yang Junshan was present, he would have definitely recognized that the person in front of him was Tian Yu, the person whom he had met once in the Sunset Ridge. This person was the son of the patriarch of the Sandtown, Tian Zheng Wang.

A hint of worry appeared on Spiritual Master Yuan Fei’s face as he asked, “Is there any news your father sent over from Sandtown?”

Tian Yu shook his head, and said: “Beautiful, my father has already instigated the villagers of the Sandtown to go into the mountains to look, but there are still no traces of them. Recently, there have been many berserk beasts in the forests of the Sandtown, and many of the cultivators that entered the mountains have already lost their lives, including the Martial Realm Cultivator.”

The worry on Yuan Fei’s face deepened, he nodded and said: “I got it, you may leave, tell your father, he has to find traces of that Alien Cultivator!”

“Brother, you have just advanced into the realms of life, and you haven’t even consolidated your cultivation yet, yet you are fighting with someone like this, could it be …”

Yang Junshan looked at his brother, laughed, and said: “Do we have any choice? Or perhaps, you would hand over the control of the village protection formation to Song Wei, just as he had hoped? ”

“But …”

Yang Junping still wanted to say something, but he was stopped by Yang Junshan’s hand, saying: “It’s too late to say anything; Xiong Mantao is already here!”
