Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather.

Chapter 859 You are Wang Qiutang!

Moyu Peak.

Wang Qiutang looked at Wang Qisheng with a sinister gaze, "Is this what you've done?"

Wang Qisheng knelt on the ground, head bowed and said dejectedly, "I never imagined that Wang Shanhu would be so useless!"

"Idiot!" Wang Qiutang was so angry she wanted to slap this unfilial son to death.

He agreed to Wang Qisheng's plan to take action against Yang Qinting, but he did not expect Wang Qisheng to be so useless. Not only did he fail to take down Yang Qinting, but he also gave others leverage over him.

Now look what's happened; the Yang family has come knocking on his door with their people, and he's completely lost face.

At this moment, a disciple rushed in and reported, "Reporting to the elder, the Enforcement Hall has received the news that Elder Jiang has led three hundred sword-wielding disciples to Qingyun Peak!"

Wang Qiutang took a deep breath and slowly stood up. "Let's go!"

"Father, where are we going?" Wang Qisheng asked blankly.

"Where else can we go? To Qingyun Peak!" Wang Qiutang roared angrily.

"Father, you can save me, don't hand me over to the Hall of Law Enforcement!" Wang Qisheng was jolted awake and realized what was happening, so he quickly pleaded.

Jiang Baichuan of the Enforcement Hall is a living Yama. Once you enter the Enforcement Hall for making a mistake, don't even think about leaving unscathed.

"Shut up and get going! Things will get complicated if we're late!"

Wang Qiutang really didn't want to pay attention to this unfilial son, so she quickly walked towards the outer gate.

……

Inside the bamboo building on Youhuang Peak.

Chu Lingxiao sat by the window, gazing at the lush green bamboo forest outside the gate. A gentle breeze rustled the bamboo leaves.

"The Yang family actually dared to come knocking on our door. What is their backing?"

At this moment, she was filled with doubt, but also with a faint sense of anticipation.

If the Yang family can provide her with some resources, her chances of advancing to the Divine Soul Realm will be much greater.

She had been considering agreeing to the marriage before, and now she was even more excited about it.

She thought for a moment, then jumped out of the window. "Let's go, let's go take a look!"

After saying that, she left the bamboo building with two maids and flew towards Qingyun Peak.

……

Nanyuan Peak, the disciples' residence, is an ordinary little courtyard.

Since leaving the bamboo house on Youhuang Peak that day, Li Qianqian's heart has been filled with worry.

She didn't know that Yu Qingyi had gone to Youhuang Peak yesterday; she only knew that Yang Qinting had already returned home.

"hateful!"

In the courtyard, Li Qianqian angrily brandished her longsword, as if she wanted to chop someone into mincemeat.

Chu Lingxiao's indifference saddened her greatly, but she was unwilling to give in. So she wanted to leave Xuanqing Sect with Yang Qinting, but now that Yang Qinting had gone home, she could only vent her helplessness and anger here.

Just as Li Qianqian was venting her anger, there was a sudden knocking on the door. "Junior Sister Li, Junior Sister Li!"

"Who is it?" Li Qianqian asked, dissatisfied.

"It's me, Bai Yiyi!"

Li Qianqian opened the courtyard gate, and a tall woman stood outside, her face full of excitement.

"Senior Sister Bai, what's wrong?"

"Junior Sister Li is in big trouble! The Yang family of Huyuan is demanding justice outside the mountain gate!"

"What do you mean by seeking justice!" Li Qianqian looked completely confused.

Bai Yiyi chuckled and said, "I heard that Junior Brother Yang was ambushed and killed by Wang Shanhu on his way home. The Yang family of Huyuan captured Wang Shanhu and his men and brought them back to the sect to demand justice!"

This senior sister is also someone who loves to watch the drama unfold, and her gossip spirit is still burning brightly.

"Junior Sister Li, how are things going with Junior Brother Yang?"

"Wait, you said Senior Brother Yang was ambushed on his way back? Is Senior Brother Yang alright?" Li Qianqian asked anxiously.

"Uh! It seems fine. I heard that Junior Brother Yang came along too, right outside the mountain gate!" Bai Yiyi said.

"No, I have to go and see!" Li Qianqian couldn't wait any longer, so she leaped up and flew towards Qingyun Peak.

"Junior sister, wait for me, I'll go with you!" Bai Yiyi quickly followed.

……

In front of the mountain gate.

While Wang Shanhu and his six companions were still being beaten, Jiang Baichuan arrived in a grand procession with three hundred sword-wielding disciples.

Yang Chengye looked up at the three hundred sword-wielding disciples flying through the air, his eyes narrowed slightly, feeling somewhat shocked.

Three hundred disciples flew through the air, their ranks perfectly aligned, without the slightest sign of chaos or error, seemingly maintaining some kind of special formation.

This is an elite force; although its numbers are somewhat small, its combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

Among the crowd, Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi were also sizing up the sword-wielding disciple who flew in.

"They look quite extraordinary!" Yu Qingyi said softly.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, "Great sects have their own foundations. Xuanqing Sect has been passed down for three thousand years, so it's normal for it to have some special foundations."

"Then how does our army compare?" Yu Qingyi asked.

Yang Zhengshan chuckled, "If it's the Three Guards of Yujing, then of course we are far inferior to them, but if it's the garrison, then we are no worse than them!"

The Jade Capital Three Guards are a newly formed army in the Land of Spiritual Origin, and their strength is still somewhat lacking at present.

The garrison was formerly the Dharma Protectorate. After the reorganization of Lingyuan Land, the thousand Dharma Protectors were divided into three. Two hundred were assigned to Kaiyang Tower to help Kaiyang Tower build an enforcement force, two hundred were assigned to the Jade Capital Three Guards to serve as the backbone of the Jade Capital Three Guards, and the remaining six hundred were all left in the garrison to serve as the defensive force of Lingyuan Land.

Currently, there are 2,000 garrison troops and 6,000 Yujing Three Guards in Lingyuan Land, totaling 8,000 troops.

The newly expanded garrison was naturally no match for these sword-wielding disciples, but the original six hundred guardian soldiers were definitely not much worse than these sword-wielding disciples.

Whether in terms of cultivation level, equipment, or formations, they are comparable to these sword-wielding disciples.

Jiang Baichuan flew to the mountain gate, but before he could speak, Wang Qiutang arrived as well.

Looking at Wang Shanhu and his six companions, who were barely breathing in front of the mountain gate, Wang Qiutang's old face seemed as black as ink.

"Be bold!"

He took the initiative, coldly rebuking, "Where did this villain come from, daring to trespass on the gates of my Xuanqing Sect!"

The loud sound reverberated throughout the heavens and earth, deafening everyone around.

Before the words had even faded, a sharp sword shot into the sky and slashed directly at Yang Chengye and the others.

No one expected that Wang Qiutang would be so shameless as to attack a junior.

Jiang Baichuan didn't expect that he wouldn't even have time to stop it.

Yang Zhengshan hadn't expected this old man to be so shameless. If this sword were to strike, Yang Chengye would surely die.

"You old dog, you're asking for death!" Yang Zhengshan was furious. He had schemed against Xuanqing Sect, which made him feel somewhat apologetic towards them, but now that little bit of apology had vanished without a trace.

The magical power within his body circulated, seeping into the ground along his feet, causing the ground to tremble slightly.

Yang Chengye squinted, feeling the piercing sharpness of the sword, and raised his spear, unleashing a spear light that was about ten feet long.

So what if they are Golden Body Realm martial artists?

That couldn't stop him from firing his gun!
"Protect the eldest young master!"

Upon seeing this, Luo Bo, Song Jie, and the others raised their spears almost without hesitation, protecting Yang Chengye and Yang Qinting in the middle.

A powerful fighting spirit erupted instantly, showing no intention of backing down.

But before they could even fire their guns, the bluestone bricks beneath their feet suddenly shattered, and over a hundred vines as thick as an arm shot out.

The vines, like spears, surged forth like a forest, sweeping towards the Xuanqing Sect's mountain gate as if thousands of soldiers were charging into battle.

The spear's momentum surged like a tide, and in the blink of an eye, it collided with Wang Qiutang's towering sword light.

Rumble~~~
A terrifying shockwave exploded in the sky, spreading throughout the surrounding area for miles.

Wang Qiutang's strength should not be underestimated, after all, he has the cultivation level of the late Golden Body Realm.

However, Yang Zhengshan not only mastered the vine technique to a high level, but also incorporated the intent of the "I Am the Spear" and even used his decades of experience in leading troops into battle.

Each vine is like a soldier who has mastered the essence of spear fighting, ready to charge into battle in his place.

Wang Qiutang's sword light was imposing, while Yang Zhengshan's vine technique was like a magnificent military might.

The moment the two collided, Wang Qiutang's sword light shattered instantly, and more than a hundred vines, like a monstrous wave, crashed down on Wang Qiutang.

Upon seeing this, Wang Qiutang's pupils shrank sharply, and her face was filled with unconcealed horror.

The vines pressed down, but did not reach Wang Qiutang, because the formation on the Xuanqing Sect's mountain gate had been activated, forming a protective shield that protected Wang Qiutang and the others.

Yang Zhengshan's eyes were gloomy. He reached out and grabbed Yu Qingyi. Yu Qingyi disappeared instantly. The next moment, a pill furnace appeared out of thin air and lifted Yang Zhengshan's body into the air.

Gaga~~
The loud cawing of crows resounded throughout the heavens and earth, and could be heard from Qingyu City to the twenty-four peaks of Xuanqing Sect.

The Golden Crow Eight Trigrams Furnace is a mid-grade spiritual treasure containing the true fire of the sun. It can be used to refine elixirs and defend against enemies.

When Yang Zhengshan was in the Qi Refining stage, he was unable to activate this powerful spiritual treasure. Now, even with his early Foundation Establishment stage cultivation, he still cannot activate it.

However, it doesn't matter that he can't activate it. The Golden Crow Eight Trigrams Furnace has a spirit. As long as the Golden Crow is given enough spirit stones, it can unleash at least 80% of the furnace's power.

The reason Yang Zhengshan dared to plot against the Xuanqing Sect was precisely because he possessed this mid-grade spiritual artifact.

Of course, Yang Zhengshan would rather not use the Golden Crow Eight Trigrams Furnace if he could avoid it, since this thing is a gluttonous creature with an astonishingly large appetite.

If you were to actually use it in battle, a single breath of fire would cost tens of thousands of spirit stones, and a few more breaths would wipe out hundreds of thousands of low-grade spirit stones.

"You are Wang Qiutang!"

Yang Zhengshan asked in a cold voice.

"Grandfather!" Yang Chengye bowed deeply upon seeing Yang Zhengshan arrive.

Yang Qinting and the others also quickly bowed and knelt down.

The people around were utterly shocked when they saw Yang Zhengshan.

Yang Zhengshan's appearance at this moment was truly astonishing.

He stood on the Golden Crow Eight Trigrams Furnace, wore a blue robe, a white jade crown, and had eyes like lightning. His imposing aura pressed down as if it were a tangible force. Most importantly, there was a blazing golden crow above his head.

The terrifying golden crow was covered in golden flames, and the intense heat made everyone's faces feel like they were being burned.

Wang Qiutang looked at Jinwu, then at Yang Zhengshan, and her hands began to twitch involuntarily.

"Fellow Daoist!" Upon seeing this, Jiang Baichuan sighed inwardly, but still stepped forward, clasped his hands in greeting, and paid his respects.

"Who are you?" Yang Zhengshan asked coldly.

"Elder Jiang Baichuan of the Enforcement Hall of the Xuanqing Sect!"

"Doesn't your Xuanqing Sect have Foundation Establishment cultivators? Shouldn't you invite them over to meet you?" Yang Zhengshan didn't give Jiang Baichuan a friendly look.

Since things have come to this point, there's no need to worry about anything else.

Wang Qiutang really offended Yang Zhengshan by attacking Yang Chengye without saying a word. Did he really think that Yang Chengye, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, had no temper?
Who is Yang Chengye?
He is the eldest grandson of the Yang family.

If we were to rank people in the entire Spirit Origin Land according to their status, Yang Chengye would be in the top ten.

Whether it's An Yuxing or Liang Shengze, they both have to be ranked after Yang Chengye.

Just because Yang Chengye is the eldest grandson of the Yang family.

If anything were to happen to Yang Chengye, then the Spirit Source Land would have to wage war for him.

At that time, not to mention the Xuanqing Sect, Yang Zhengshan will overturn the entire Lingxiu Sea.

This wasn't a question of whether Yang Zhengshan wanted to or was willing to help Yang Chengye get it back; it was a matter of his obligation to help Yang Chengye.

Because the Yang family are the masters of the Spirit Source Land, Yang Chengye is the young master of the Spirit Source Land.

Although Yang Zhengshan has never mentioned or thought about these things, it doesn't mean that people don't think so.

When Yang Zhengshan suggested that Yang Chengmao take charge of Ziwei Tower, didn't An Yuxing and others raise objections?
The reason they raised objections was because the lineage of Yang Mingcheng, Yang Chengye, Yang Qinyuan, and Yang Jijue was the true future direct descendant of the Yang family.

Jiang Baichuan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Please wait a moment, Master. I will go and invite the two Masters here immediately!"

The Golden Body Realm seems to be at the same level as the Foundation Establishment Realm, but in reality, the two are vastly different.

It could even be said that the two are not even on the same level.

Therefore, there is a huge gap between martial artists and immortal cultivators.

Yang Zhengshan's disdainful attitude towards Jiang Baichuan did not anger Jiang Baichuan, because Jiang Baichuan was well aware of the difference in their views.

"No need, we're already here!"

A voice came, and two figures arrived on swords.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the two figures with a calm expression.

He naturally knew these two people. Xuanqing Sect currently has two Foundation Establishment cultivators, namely True Person Yunxiao and True Person Yunxi.

Both of these Foundation Establishment cultivators are at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. Yunxiao Zhenren is older, around 240 years old, while Yunxi Zhenren is younger, but still 160 years old.

Yunxiao approached and looked at the golden crow circling above Yang Zhengshan, a solemn expression on his face.

Lingbao!

This is a magical treasure!
For Foundation Establishment cultivators, spiritual treasures are absolutely invaluable treasures, and no Foundation Establishment cultivator can resist their allure.

However, spiritual treasures are like chicken ribs in the hands of Foundation Establishment cultivators, because Foundation Establishment cultivators find it difficult to control spiritual treasures and tame their spirits.

Taming a spirit is more difficult than taming a wild beast, because spirits are highly intelligent and, if given the chance, naturally do not want to be enslaved by cultivators.

Yang Zhengshan was able to gain the Golden Crow's approval because the Golden Crow valued Yang Zhengshan as the master of the cave heaven; otherwise, the Golden Crow would not have paid any attention to Yang Zhengshan.

Although Yunxiao coveted the Golden Crow Eight Trigrams Furnace in Yang Zhengshan's possession, he would not try to snatch it, because he simply couldn't take it away.

Even if he kills Yang Zhengshan, the Golden Crow Eight Trigrams Furnace will most likely not submit to him.
