Chapter 46

When Long Chen reappeared, the old ancestor of the Yang family revealed a look of disappointment. He knew that it seemed the Lord Wolf did not appreciate Long Chen.

The Bai family and others also heaved a sigh of relief. If Long Chen had followed Lord Wolf to the Primordial Spirit City, even if they could deal with the people of the Yang family, they would still fear that Long Chen, who had greatly increased his strength in the Primordial Spirit City, would come back for revenge.

"Even a young man with such talent is not valued by the Spirit Martial Clan. It shows how high the threshold of the Spirit Martial Clan is!"

At this moment, the old ancestor of the Yang family had already returned to the Yang family's camp. Since the old ancestor had become the lord of Baiyang Town, the forces of Baiyang Town now gathered around the old ancestor of the Yang family, while the Bai family was left alone.

"Chen, that Lord Wolf?"

"He has already returned to the Primordial Spirit City."

Hearing that Lord Wolf had left, everyone congratulated the old ancestor of the Yang family again before taking their leave.

Tens of thousands of people were about to leave the square, but at this moment, the Bai family actually approached the Yang family. Leading them were Bai Sheng and Bai Li, who looked at the old ancestor of the Yang family and Long Chen with cold, angry eyes.

The Bai family's aggressive demeanor clearly indicated that they were here to provoke.

As the Bai family got closer, Long Chen could more clearly feel the might of the two Dragon Vein Realm Ninth Level powerhouses.

At a distance from the Yang family, the Bai family finally stopped.

Bai Sheng and Bai Li's gloomy gazes met the old ancestor of the Yang family's, who was not afraid of their two experts.

Bai Sheng sneered, "Yang family? Lord's residence? You're just dreaming."

The old ancestor of the Yang family was too lazy to talk to him. However, Long Chen, who found these two old men particularly annoying, sneered, "You two little white dogs, you were wagging your tails when Lord Wolf was here, and now that he's gone, you want to bite people?"

Bai Sheng and Bai Li's behavior was vividly described by Long Chen, causing everyone else to burst into laughter. Being so humiliated by Long Chen, the two Bai family powerhouses' faces instantly turned dark.

They exchanged a glance, and then Bai Li looked at Long Chen and said, "What a sharp-tongued little beast. You think you're a genius, but you're far from a true genius. Lord Wolf not taking you in is your misfortune. In eight days, I can guarantee that you will live for no more than eight days."

When he mentioned the number eight, he sneered coldly.

Long Chen knew he was talking about the competition for the Deriving Spirit Fruit.

However, he pretended to be puzzled and said, "This little white dog doesn't know what he's talking about. We are human, so we naturally don't understand."

Bai Li was instantly enraged, but Bai Sheng held him back and whispered coldly, "Second Brother, you're sharp-tongued, but arguing with him will only anger us. Anyway, soon the entire Yang family will be destroyed. Is it worth it for us to argue with them today?"

Bai Li also sneered coldly, "Fine, let them enjoy it for a few more days. When the time comes..."

"By the way, Second Brother, is your brother from the Crimson Blood Holy Sect reliable? His strength is something we can hardly match. What if..."

"Big Brother, don't worry. My brother is reliable. With his Human Pill Realm strength, whether it's Yang Cangkong or this so-called genius, they are just clowns."

Bai Sheng glanced coldly at the old ancestor of the Yang family and Long Chen, thinking that they would soon be dead, and smiled coldly, "You can jump around now, but when the time comes, you'll regret ever being born."

Seeing that the Bai and Yang families were about to fight, everyone was tense, but when the Bai family left after a few words, everyone sneered. The Bai family's performance was indeed too poor.

However, Long Chen's brows deeply furrowed. He had a premonition that the competition for the Deriving Spirit Fruit would have many twists and turns. If he wasn't careful, it could lead the entire Yang family into an irredeemable situation!

Two months ago, if something happened to the Yang family, Long Chen wouldn't have cared, but now that he had people he needed to protect in the Yang family, the family's survival was closely tied to his own life.

"So... Bai family, only by making you all die cleanly can I be at ease."

...

After returning to the Yang family, the old ancestor of the Yang family gathered the family members again. One matter was the arrangement of the Lord's residence, and the other was the reward for today.

At this moment, the old ancestor of the Yang family only kept Yang Qingxuan, Yang Xueqing, Yang Yuntian, Yang Wu, and Long Chen. He took out the spatial bag and said, "I have already checked the rewards from the Spirit Martial Clan. There are twenty thousand spirit stones, three divine stones, a high-grade yellow-rank spirit sword, and a high-grade yellow-rank sword technique."

When he mentioned these, the old ancestor of the Yang family showed an excited expression.

Not to mention the twenty thousand spirit stones, which were almost equal to all the money the Yang family currently had, each of the three divine stones was the core of countless spirit stones. The spiritual energy contained in one divine stone was roughly equivalent to the spiritual energy in ten thousand spirit stones. So, just the spirit stones alone were worth about fifty thousand spirit stones.

Divine stones were generally only affordable by Human Pill Realm martial artists.

One divine stone could be exchanged for ten thousand spirit stones, but ten thousand spirit stones might not necessarily get you a divine stone, as divine stones were much rarer than spirit stones.

With these three divine stones, the cultivation of the Yang family members could rapidly improve. When they heard about the three divine stones, everyone showed looks of pleasant surprise.

And when they heard about the high-grade yellow-rank spirit sword and the high-grade yellow-rank sword technique, they smiled even more.

After all, the Yang family currently only had one high-grade technique, the Dragon Seal. Now, whether in terms of wealth or cultivation techniques, the Yang family had doubled. And that high-grade yellow-rank spirit sword was even more impressive.

There were very few spirit swords in the entire Baiyang Town, let alone a high-grade yellow-rank spirit sword. Wielding this spirit sword and using the high-grade yellow-rank sword technique would definitely be extremely powerful!

At this moment, the old ancestor of the Yang family took out the sword technique and the high-grade yellow-rank spirit sword. The spirit sword looked as if it were made of crystal, with a faint green color, and a sharp aura emanated from it, extremely piercing!

Such a sword was definitely capable of cutting through hair.

"This sword is called the Phantom Crystal Sword!"

The Yang family members looked at the Phantom Crystal Sword and showed looks of admiration. The powerful fluctuations within the spirit sword would definitely greatly enhance one's strength in battle.

"And this high-grade yellow-rank sword technique is called the 'Seven Illusory Killing Sword Manual'!"

Just hearing the name, one knew it was not simple. The Seven Illusory Killing Sword Manual would certainly not be weaker than the Netherworld Grotto Finger or the Dragon Seal. If paired with the Phantom Crystal Sword, it would be even more terrifying!

The old ancestor of the Yang family looked at everyone and said, "I asked you to stay today to decide together who will receive the Seven Illusory Killing Sword Manual and the Phantom Crystal Sword. The manual can be practiced by anyone, but there is only one Phantom Crystal Sword, so... I am getting older, and the Dragon Seal has already consumed my life's energy. I now need to focus on finding a way to break through to the Human Pill Realm, so the Phantom Crystal Sword will go to one of you."

Then he looked at Long Chen and said to everyone, "Chen has done a great service for our Yang family. What do you think if I give him the Phantom Crystal Sword?"

Long Chen receiving the Phantom Crystal Sword was naturally what everyone expected. Yang Qingxuan and the others all nodded in agreement, but Long Chen said, "Grandfather, I have the Dragon Seal, and I don't plan to learn sword techniques. You should give the spirit sword to someone else."

Long Chen didn't want the Phantom Crystal Sword for two reasons: he already had the Dragon Seal, and Ling Xi was a sword expert. With Ling Xi around, Long Chen didn't plan to learn the Seven Illusory Killing Sword Manual.

What he needed was a higher-level cultivation technique, and someone in the Yang family needed the Phantom Crystal Sword more.

Seeing Long Chen's firm resolve, the old ancestor of the Yang family thought that even if Long Chen learned the Seven Illusory Killing Sword Manual, it might not be as powerful as the Dragon Seal. So, he nodded and looked at the others. At this moment, Yang Qingxuan also said with a bitter smile, "Father, like you, the Dragon Seal is enough for me. Learning the Seven Illusory Killing Sword Manual would be too much to handle."

Yang Xueqing also nodded, and now only Yang Wu and Yang Yuntian were left. Yang Yuntian, seeing that his siblings had given their opinions, said, "I have not yet reached the Dragon Vein Realm Eighth Level, and my mastery of the Dragon Seal is only half. I am not ready for the Seven Illusory Killing Sword Manual."

Yang Wu also said, "I am similar to Second Uncle. If I can master the Great Profound Dragon Seal in the future, then we can talk."

At this moment, Long Chen suggested, "Only Ling Yue and Ling Qing have not learned the Dragon Seal, and they are both at the Dragon Vein Realm Sixth Level. The Seven Illusory Killing Sword Manual can be given to them to practice. We can see who masters it first and give the Phantom Crystal Sword to her. What do you think?"

Everyone in the Yang family knew that Long Chen and Yang Lingqing had a good relationship, but Long Chen did not favor Yang Lingqing. Instead, he decided the owner of the Phantom Crystal Sword based on their talent, which was fair competition.

The old ancestor of the Yang family nodded and said, "That's settled then. As for the spirit stones and divine stones, I will keep them for now and distribute them based on merit. Since Chen has done a great service, I will give him one divine stone."

Everyone naturally had no objections.

Long Chen, who had never seen a divine stone, did not refuse and directly took the divine stone from the old ancestor of the Yang family. Instantly, a dense wave of spiritual energy hit him, and just a light breath made him feel refreshed.

The old ancestor of the Yang family smiled and then said to everyone, "Now that the Yang family has become the Lord's residence, Qingxuan and Yuntian will help me with some matters. The rest of you can go back."

Yang Xueqing and Yang Wu nodded and were about to leave when Long Chen suddenly said, "Wait."

Everyone looked at him in confusion, and Long Chen took a deep breath and said, "Grandfather, do you know what the Deriving Spirit Fruit is?"

Hearing the name of the Deriving Spirit Fruit, the old ancestor of the Yang family's body trembled, and he said excitedly, "Do you know where the Deriving Spirit Fruit is?"
