C807 out of the mountains
Ling Zhang County suddenly erupted in a wolf disaster, but all the sects in Jade State turned their eyes towards the Celestial Wolf Sect at the first moment. Now, our Yang family has become the outpost of the various sects to investigate the Celestial Wolf Sect, and in the past few days, there have been countless scouts, messengers, and flying swords, entering and exiting with great excitement. Right now, the entire town is a mess of fish and dragons, not only are there cultivators from various families that came to watch this competition, but also many rogue cultivators that came to watch it.
Yang Junshan smiled, "What, is there any news from Zhang County?"
"Three large demon packs, the biggest wolf pack are Heavenly Dipper Sovereigns, they have at least three Form Transformation Demonic Wolves; the other two wolf packs are also True Demons of the Profound Handle Realm, and their subordinate are one or two True Demons. Their combined strength is not the least bit inferior to a sect, but they disappeared without a trace beforehand."
Yang Junshan thought about it and said, "You mean that this wasn't done by the Sirius Sect?"
Yang Junping was stunned for a moment before he said, "Many people from the other sects thought that it might be because Spiritual Master Greywolf had successfully advanced to the Supreme Astral Realm."
The two brothers exchanged a few words about Zhang County. After that, Yang Junping handed over a list to him and said: "Nuo, this is the list of the twelve people that will come after the third round. Below, there are a few local cultivators who are good at refining pills, smithing weapons, making talismans, and so on with some potential."
Yang Junshan skimmed through the list and found that four of the twelve were not from the Yang family. He couldn't help but laugh, "It seems that this time, there will be some non-Yang family disciples among the elite disciples."
Yang Junping laughed, "The truth is, the cultivation levels of these twelve people are very similar. Whoever wins will have to depend on their luck and performance. However, this time, there will definitely be those who aren't from the Yang Family."
Yang Junshan pointed to a name on the list and asked, "Who did this Liu Lichang win against?"
Yang Junping was stunned, "What?"
Yang Junshan looked calm as he said, "Draw. Give me the one who fought him."
Yang Junping had long since memorized the twelve names on the list. Hearing Yang Junshan's tone of voice, which was filled with determination, he couldn't help but recall Liu Lichang's investigation. His eyebrows twitched as he asked, "But what's wrong with this person?"
Yang Junshan said, "Don't you think the wolf demons in Hu Yao County who lost their leader are a little too smart?"
"Hand it over. One for each. Ten jade coins for each person. A total of ninety jade coins. You guys are getting lucky."
Yang Qinlang took a tray very seriously and stood in front of every cultivator in the group. After that, he unwillingly threw the ten jade coins onto the tray, which made "ding ding dang dang dang" sounds.
I say, Brother Lang, do you really need to go so far? You are a core disciple of the family, a hundred jade coins is a windfall for us. Why are you holding onto the two jade coins in our hands? "
One of the subordinates was rather dissatisfied. As he shouted out loudly, the members of the patrol squad all agreed.
Hearing this, he sneered and said: "If you lose, I'll bet with all nine of you. If you lose, one person will lose a hundred jade coins, if I win, the nine of you will lose a total of one hundred jade coins. Now, I'll deduct a total of ninety jade coins, but I don't complain, what do you complain about?"
The money they needed was just a small interlude between Yang Qinlang's group. After a few loud noises, one of the team members who usually walked closer to Yang Qinlang asked, "Brother Lang, to gather everyone together at night, is there a secret mission for the family?"
The more hidden the task, the more unambiguous the reward was. After all, they were all Martial Saints, and the monthly quests given by the Yang Family alone were not enough for their cultivation needs. Compared to the other sects in Yuzhou, this system was much better, and if they wanted to earn more cultivation resources, they had to receive tasks from the family, so the cultivators of the Yang family were very enthusiastic about all kinds of jobs given by the family.
Why did many of the younger generation from the family like to unite around the core disciples and the elite disciples?
This was because they could easily access the missions with the most generous rewards, especially the secret missions. These missions were often given to the family to gain experience and gain experience from these disciples.
Cultivators who were able to accept these missions were firstly valued by the clan, and were worthy of ordinary disciples submitting. Secondly, the disciples who were able to complete these missions were naturally valued by the clan, and the rewards would naturally be even more so.
Yang Qinlang smiled slightly and said, "We've all worked hard these past few days. Let's follow a person and find out what kind of treasure he's hiding."
Three days later, the order of the top eight elite disciples would be decided in succession, and he had already made a prior inquiry about it. Three days later, the first six would be decided in the fourth round, just like the previous three rounds of fighting techniques, and the top six would directly enter the ranks of the elite disciples. The six people who were eliminated would each fight another battle, and the two who won the most would directly be ranked seventh and eighth, while the six elite disciples who passed the fourth round would also be ranked according to this method.
Every time Liu Lichang passed the Large Competition, he would leave the residence arranged for them by the Yang Family in West Mountain Village and head to the tavern at the Town's Guarding headquarters to find a few companions to accompany him and celebrate with him.
Today, he and his friends from the same village had asked for a room in a restaurant before drinking and making a racket. Today, he had asked for a room in a restaurant, but after drinking and making a racket, he had asked for a cup of wine. Today, he and his friends from the same village had asked for a room in a restaurant, before drinking and making a ruckus after eating and drinking.
"Brother Liu's Innocence Gu is quite wonderful. Not only can it simulate the sound of our speech, it can also prevent outsiders from spying on our conversation. Who would know that the natives of this world are defending the people from the outside, but in reality, they are holding a banquet with wine in their bosom."
A cultivator sitting diagonally across from Liu Lichang said respectfully.
Another cultivator sitting next to him also said, "That Daoist Master Jun Shan of the Yang Family is said to be very impressive, the Illusory Race cultivators that can transform into a human body and the Charming Race that usually seduce people to exchange blows are all said to have suffered greatly at his hands, and the Yang Family's protective array is even more amazing. It is said that there is a magic treasure bronze mirror inside, and once an alien enters it will be reflected in their original form, but in fact, Brother Liu is about to become an elite disciple of the Yang Family."
When everyone heard this, they immediately burst into a hearty laughter and said, "With Brother Liu's strength, if you were to use your full strength, forget about entering the top eight, it would be easy for you to become the chief of the group."1
Liu Lichang originally smiled as he listened to everyone's flattery, but when everyone mentioned the copper mirror hanging in the middle of the Yang Family's great protective array, his mind suddenly felt an unexplainable pain, and he immediately remembered the pain he had to endure every time he entered the Western Mountain Village, as well as the pressure in his heart that could be seen through at any moment. Immediately, his complexion became a bit unsightly.
"Humph!"
Liu Lichang's status was clearly much higher than the people present. His face changed, and everyone quickly withdrew their smiles.
"The reason why I was able to enter Xishan Village without being discovered is because I myself came from this world and was only a disciple of a Gu cultivator. Everyone, don't forget the Soul Controlling Gu in our heads, I think none of you are willing to enter Xishan Village because the Gu worms are afraid of the mirror's light and desperately drill into our brains, right?"
Liu Lichang's words seemed to remind everyone of some terrifying memory. Every one of them had turned pale with fear written all over their faces.
Alright, the reason why I'm bringing up these bad memories to everyone is to remind everyone not to be complacent. Since I'm determined to get the Yang family's elite disciples spot, and will stay in the Yang family to help them raise their cultivation, there's no need for everyone to stay here, other than the two of you to secretly contact me during the day, so everyone should go back to Hu Yao County. I believe that the situation there will require your help.
After bidding farewell to his fellow villagers, Liu Lichang returned to the dormitory that he had prepared for them in Xishan Village. Several of his fellow villagers also returned to their own residences to rest, reeking of alcohol.
However, what they didn't know was that right in the secret area of the garrison, there were pairs of cold eyes staring at the back of every single person.
At Xishan Village, Su Changan had just entered the house and was standing at the door. He saw his teacher, Yang Junshan, chatting happily with his father in the small courtyard.
In Su Changan's memories, ever since his father had failed to break through into the Real Realm and had his injuries stabilized, it had been several years since his teacher and ancestor came to visit.
Seeing Su Changan come in, Yang Junshan glanced at him but didn't pay any attention to him. Instead, he smiled at Su Bao Zhang and said, "These past few years, your family has almost become a paradise in the Western Mountain Village. How about this?
Su Bao Zhang laughed lightly, feigning helplessness as he sighed: "Good days are coming to an end. Tell me, what is it?"
Yang Junshan said in a low voice, "Let's make a trip to Hu Yao County. Master, please clear out all the Demonic Wolves there. These juniors don't have much experience, so their methods are still young and immature."
