Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather.

Chapter 675: The Great Jokhang Dynasty in Zhou Tianci’s Words
Without saying a word, Yang Chengye stood up and walked towards the door, and Lin Zhan also ran out to greet him.

Soon they saw An Yuxing and the other two.

Three old guys were standing in the front yard of the yamen, pointing and chatting.

It was just a coincidence that the three of them got together.

After An Yuxing left Shenmu Island, he immediately returned to Pingyuan, and then he sent some of the descendants of the An family to Shenmu Island.

After living on Shenmu Island for more than half a year, he heard that Yang Chengye was going to raise an army, so he volunteered and ran back.

The news that the Yang family was going to start a rebellion was kept secret in Dayong, but it was no secret in Shenmu Island. Every family on Shenmu Island knew about it.

An Yuxing was taking a boat to Dayong when he happened to meet the Liang and Zhou families who were also taking boats to Shenmu Island. The two families were taking the same route and they collided head-on.

So, An Yuxing dragged Zhou Tianci and Liang Shengze along.

"Chengye greets the three seniors!" Yang Chengye immediately stepped forward and saluted.

An Yuxing and the other two were not arrogant and returned the greeting with a fist, "Where's your grandfather?"

"Uh! This, I don't know either~~"

Before Yang Chengye finished speaking, Yang Zhengshan's voice came over.

"I'm here, come over, I won't go to greet you!"

The corner of Yang Chengye's mouth twitched slightly. Grandpa, can't you come out to see your grandson? You are always so elusive, it's a bit scary!
Hearing this, An Yuxing laughed, "I said he was here!"

Then, the three of them nodded to Yang Chengye and walked towards a courtyard not far from the provincial government office.

Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi have always been by Yang Chengye's side. Although they have not shown up, they have always been paying attention to Yang Chengye.

The courtyard gate opened automatically, and the three of them entered and saw Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi busying themselves.

"You came at the right time. I just roasted a whole lamb!"

Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi lived a very comfortable life. The entire Chongshan Town and Liaodong were busy, and Yang Chengye was also busy. Although Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi had to follow Yang Chengye, they both looked leisurely and contented.

It was such a pleasant journey, eating and drinking.

A whole roasted lamb was placed on the red-hot charcoal, and Yang Zhengshan sprinkled some seasonings on it from time to time.

Roasted whole lamb, roasted lamb, and roasted lamb leg are all Yang Zhengshan’s favorites.

When he was in Chongshan Town, he often grilled it to eat. Later, when he went to Kyoto, the chef in the Marquis' Mansion was the best at it.

It was only after he went to Xingyue Island that he occasionally had a snack in the space because there were fewer sheep on the island.

Back in Chongshan Town, Yang Zhengshan picked up this unique skill again.

"Where's the wine!"

An Yuxing doesn't care about the roasted whole lamb, he only cares about the wine.

Yang Zhengshan glanced at him and said unhappily, "We are outside, how could I bring any wine with me!"

"Stop fooling me. I don't know you yet. Bring out the wine!" An Yuxing sat down next to him and said without any hesitation.

Yang Zhengshan really couldn't do anything to him, Yu Qingyi smiled and said, "I'll get it!"

"Please take a seat, seniors!" Yang Zhengshan said with a smile to Zhou Tianci and Liang Shengze.

He had never met Zhou Tianci, but he had met Liang Shengze several times.

Although we are not familiar with each other, now that we are all in the same camp, we feel closer.

Zhou Tianci looked at An Yuxing who was casual, and smiled, "Then I won't be polite. Haha, Brother Yang's wine is the best in the world, and I'm going to drink enough today!"

"That's right! There must be enough drinks today!" Liang Shengze also said.

Yang Zhengshan looked at An Yuxing and said with a smile: "Don't learn from him, he is an old drunkard!"

The four of them chatted and laughed as they sat together, and soon they started drinking and chatting.

They are all old guys who are very experienced. There is no need to be polite to them.

It’s time to eat, it’s time to drink.

Not to mention, Yang Zhengshan’s roasted whole lamb is very delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a fragrant aroma.

Paired with the fragrant Zuixianniang and Baicaoniang, the four of them really enjoyed themselves.

After three rounds of drinking, only a pile of broken bones remained of a roasted whole lamb weighing more than 40 kilograms. Zhou Tianci took a deep breath, and then let out a long breath, "Hey, I haven't eaten so happily for a long time!"

None of them are people who care too much about food and drink. Although innate warriors also need to eat, due to their physical conditions, they have no problem not eating for three to five days.

Of course, they also had huge appetites. Four of them ate a whole sheep and drank more than ten kilograms of wine. Their appetites were beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Yu Qingyi just ate a little bit, and the rest went into the stomachs of the other four.

"Me too!" Liang Shengze said with a smile.

Yang Zhengshan brought the tea table, put the tea set on it, poured tea for the three people, and said, "I heard that Senior Zhou has been to Dazhao?"

He was very interested in Dazhao. Legends about Dazhao were very popular in the vast sea. The closer to the stormy sea, the more popular the legends of Dazhao were.

It’s just that there are so many legends that it’s hard to tell whether they’re true or false.

It is said that Dazhao is a place of outstanding people and has countless innate warriors.

It is said that precious medicines are everywhere in Dazhao and magical fruits can be found everywhere.

Some people also say that there are many warriors in Dazhao who surpass the innate warriors.

In short, there are so many confusing legends that it is hard to tell whether they are true or not.

Zhou Tianci nodded slightly, "Yes, I have been there, and stayed in the Zhao Dynasty for six years!"

Yang Zhengshan asked, "What does Dazhao look like?"

An Yuxing and Liang Shengze also became curious. They had also heard of Dazhao, but they didn't want to hear as many legends about it as Yang Zhengshan did.

They only knew that Dazhao was a very powerful dynasty in the far east.

Zhou Tianci smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Da Zhao is not as good as people imagine in the rumors! In fact, it is just a very large dynasty. And it is a dynasty in a turbulent period!"

"When I went there, Dazhao had already started to fall apart. Well, it was almost the same as Darong is now!"

"It's just that Dazhao's situation may be more complicated. In fact, I don't have a very in-depth understanding of the specific situation."

No matter how powerful a dynasty is, it will perish sooner or later.

Be it Dayong or Dazhao.

Yang Zhengshan was not surprised by this. "Does Dazhao really have a lot of spiritual fruits and warriors above the innate level?" Zhou Tianci pondered for a moment and said, "The spiritual fruits in Dazhao are more than here. Similarly, there are more innate warriors there than here!"

“As for warriors above the Xiantian realm, in Dazhao, warriors above the Xiantian realm are called Martial Gods, and the realm above the Xiantian realm is called the Martial God realm, also known as the Divine Intention Realm. As the name suggests, it is a realm that focuses on comprehending the artistic conception of martial arts!”

"There are many innate warriors in Dazhao, but martial gods are rare. Anyway, I have been in Dazhao for several years and have never seen a martial god!"

"Moreover, there are some misunderstandings about Dazhao in Wanli Sea. Dazhao is not a powerful dynasty, at least in the area east of Storm Sea, it is not considered a powerful dynasty!"

"To the east of the Storm Sea is a vast territory, with many large and small forces! There are also many forces that are more powerful than the Zhao Dynasty!"

"It's just because the Storm Sea is close to Dazhao, so there are many legends about Dazhao circulating in the Wanli Sea!"

Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard and nodded. This was somewhat beyond his expectations.

You must know that in the vast ocean, Dazhao is an extremely powerful holy dynasty.

The sun and the moon are bright, and the holy dynasty is majestic.

In the eyes of many forces in the eastern part of the Wanli Sea, the Dazhao Dynasty is like the Holy Kingdom of Heaven, an existence that countless warriors can only dream of but cannot reach.

However, according to Zhou Tianci, the Dazhao Dynasty is actually an ordinary dynasty. At most, it is a little stronger than Dayong, has more innate warriors, and has a martial god.

Well, it’s actually not wrong to say that Dazhao is the Holy Kingdom of the Celestial Empire. Compared with Dayong, Dazhao is indeed qualified to be called the Holy Kingdom of the Celestial Empire, not to mention those small dynasties and small forces in the vast ocean.

"Is it easy to cross the storm sea?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

Zhou Tianci picked up the tea and took a sip. "It's very difficult, very difficult. Even a congenital warrior may end up in the belly of a fish!"

Yang Zhengshan looked at him and asked, "How did the senior get through the storm sea?"

Zhou Tianci was silent for a while before he said, "Luck! Back then, I traveled with four innate warriors, eight large ships, and thousands of elite warriors, but in the end, less than a hundred people made it through the storm sea!"

"All eight large ships were smashed by the waves, and we finally crossed over by relying on the broken wooden planks!"

"Three of the four innate warriors who traveled with me are missing!"

When these words were spoken, everyone opened their mouths wide in disbelief.

"So dangerous?" An Yuxing was also shocked.

Even innate warriors cannot guarantee safety!

"Well, the waves in the stormy sea are extremely terrifying. The deeper you go, the more terrifying the waves are. A single huge wave can knock a ship over 30 meters long into the water! The most important thing is that with the storm, the large ships dare not raise their sails. Once they raise their sails, the masts will break!"

Thinking of that horrific experience, Zhou Tianci couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard and thought for a moment, "Then how did Senior Zhou come back?"

Since it is so dangerous, why did Zhou Tianci come back?

Zhou Tianci smiled and said, "I did not come back from the Storm Sea, but bypassed the Storm Sea. From Dazhao Linhai, go south for 8,000 miles, and then sail west for 3,000 miles to bypass the Storm Sea!"

"I have been in Dazhao for six years, but it took me more than six years to come back!"

"Although there are many dangers in the voyage around the storm sea, it is much safer than crossing the storm sea. As long as your luck is not too bad, you can still come back safely! Of course, you can also go through safely!"

A sea map appeared in Yang Zhengshan's mind, and he said, "Senior, are you coming back from the Tianfeng Sea?"

"Yes, we came back from the Tianfeng Sea!" Zhou Tianci said.

Yang Zhengshan grinned, that's really far away.

Yang Zhengshan didn't know the situation in Dazhao, but he had heard something about the Tianfeng Sea.

The Tianfeng Sea Area is located in the southeast of the Wanli Sea Area. You can tell how far the Tianfeng Sea Area is from Dayong by looking at its location.

From Dayong to Tianfeng Sea, one has to cross the entire Wanli Sea, and then it is estimated that one has to cross the entire Tianfeng Sea again. According to Zhou Tianci, the voyage is probably about 40,000 to 50,000 miles. According to the speed of the large ship, even if it goes smoothly all the way and does not stop day and night, it will take more than half a year. But for such a long journey, how could it be smooth sailing? Zhou Tianci said that it took him six years to come back. Obviously, he encountered a lot of troubles during the voyage, which delayed him a lot of time.

"Then why did you come back, senior?" Yang Zhengshan looked at Zhou Tianci and asked.

Dazhao has a cultivation method that is higher than the innate realm. Since Zhou Tianci has gone there, he should stay in the Dazhao Dynasty in order to reach a higher realm.

Not to mention surpassing the innate level, even the entry level is enough to make countless innate warriors fight for their lives.

As you hear the news, you can die in the evening.

Many innate warriors have such awareness and determination.

However, after Zhou Tianci went to Dazhao, he actually came back, which made Yang Zhengshan feel a little confused.

Zhou Tianci showed a trace of distress, "I don't want to come back, but I have offended someone, so I have to come back!"

Zhou Tianci then began to explain, saying that basically he had offended someone he could not afford to offend.

When he first arrived at the Dazhao Dynasty, Zhou Tianci kept a low profile. He cultivated himself while learning about the situation in Dazhao.

As an outsider in the Zhao Dynasty, he naturally had to act carefully, so at the beginning he and his old friends lived a relatively stable life.

However, they did not go to Dazhao for fun, but to obtain more resources, gain entry into the Tao, and even surpass their innate cultivation methods.

So after recuperating for a year, they set out to collect resources.

Although there were many innate warriors in the Dazhao Dynasty, there were not so many that they were everywhere. He and his old friend were all innate warriors, and there were hundreds of elite warriors around them, so they worked very quickly at the beginning and grabbed a lot of resources.

That’s right, just rob!

There was nothing that the great Duke Ningguo could do about it as they had no foundation in Dazhao. No matter what they did, they would conflict with the local tyrants.

So they simply became pirates and specialized in robbing ships.

Of course, they don’t care about ordinary things. They only grab precious medicines and spiritual fruits.

Although the spiritual fruits and precious medicines from Dazhao are also precious resources, they are definitely more common than those from Dayong.

So they actually managed to snatch a lot of precious medicines and spiritual fruits at the beginning, and even a lot of elixirs.

But if you stand by the river often, you will get your feet wet. One time, they received a piece of news that a fleet carrying hundreds of spiritual fruits was passing through the sea near them.

Then they couldn't resist the temptation and took action. They successfully intercepted the fleet, but after that they found out that they had been deceived.

There were no spiritual fruits in that fleet at all. The fleet's mission was to escort and protect the young master of the Tianwu Sect.

Tian Wu Zong is the most powerful sect in the northwest of Da Zhao, with more than 20 innate warriors, and its leader is a being close to the realm of martial god.

But they killed the young sect leader!
This is also the fault of the young sect leader. When the young sect leader found out that someone was hijacking the ship, he did not run away, but instead fought bravely.

Zhou Tianci didn’t know what the young sect master was at that time. He just wanted to steal the spiritual fruit, so he killed the young sect master.

In this way, they became the mortal enemies of the Tianwu Sect and were chased for three thousand miles by the Tianwu Sect. Even Zhou Tianci's old friend died.

Zhou Tianci was lucky and escaped the disaster. After many twists and turns, he finally managed to escape back.
