The gods began by supporting Guo Jing to become emperor

Chapter 85 Is it worth it! (Compensation)

The call of "Dad" fulfilled Yang Tiexin's long-cherished wish, the dream of a family reunion. For a moment, his attitude softened and he gave Yang Kang a way out. "What's your difficulty?"

"If I had acknowledged you and gone with you that day, I'm afraid that today our family of three would have become a pile of bones. That man is very powerful in the Kingdom of Jin. Where could our family of three run to?"

Yang Kang's voice became more and more choked, "You and mother have been separated for more than ten years. Can you bear to watch her live a precarious life with you? I did this to protect our family. I really had no choice."

Yang Tiexin opened his mouth to say something but had nothing to say because what he said was the truth. Everything was caused by his sudden appearance. He had also thought about running away with his family of three, but imagination is just imagination after all, not reality.

Yang Kang wanted to persuade Yang Tiexin, but he forgot that there were the Seven True Ones here. These words could fool Yang Tiexin, but not them. Qiu Chuji didn't intend to let it go, and asked coldly, "Humph, you are so sweet-talking! If you really had to do it, and you obviously had better means, why did you let your men attack your uncle and uncle, and almost killed your father? How do you explain all this?"

He sighed inwardly and stopped arguing, "Master, I cannot explain. Even if there are various reasons, I was wrong in this matter. I only ask Master to forgive my mistakes. No matter what punishment I receive, I will accept it."

He had never thought of hiding the truth from the Seven Quanzhen Masters, and getting their forgiveness was not an easy thing. At this moment, his peripheral vision caught sight of Su Ming standing beside him, and his heart skipped a beat, like a bolt from the blue, which left him dumbfounded.

Why is he here?
It just so happened that Su Ming was also looking at him at this time. Noticing his frightened expression, he smiled at him. This smile made Yang Kang even more terrified.

Yang Kang's answer was like a piece of meat on a rolling knife, leaving Qiu Chuji helpless. With Yang Tiexin here, even as his teacher, it was impossible for Qiu Chuji to punish him in front of him. After all, he had to consider Yang Tiexin's face.

But if Yang Kang was handed over to Yang Tiexin for disposal, the matter would probably be left unresolved. But if he let him go, he would feel unwilling. This kid made such a big mistake, how could he be forgiven easily?

Otherwise, where would he be placed as a master, and where would the rules of Quanzhen Sect be placed?
After all, he still felt that he owed the Guo and Yang families and couldn't save his face.

Qiu Chuji was in a dilemma and had to put the matter aside for the time being. "Let's not talk about this matter for now. You must have other purposes for coming to Zhongnan Mountain, not just to apologize to us."

“Master, I know everything. I brought my mother here to use the power of Quanzhen Sect to find my father.” He glanced at Yang Tiexin and said, “I didn’t expect that my father arrived at Quanzhen Sect before me. This way, our family can finally be reunited.”

Hearing these words, Yang Tiexin and Bao Xiruo beside them were moved. Family reunion was what they had always dreamed of, and now it seemed not far away from them and within reach.

Qiu Chuji's eyes flickered as he pressed, "So you are willing to give up your status as the crown prince of Zhao and acknowledge him as your father?"

For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Yang Kang, wanting to know what he would choose, Yang Tiexin or Wanyan Honglie.

Su Ming had already given the answer to this question, and Yang Kang had thought about it for a long time before going up the mountain. In the end, he found that he had no other choice except the answer given by Su Ming.

If he had to choose one side, his final choice would only be Wanyan Honglie. However, the arrival of Su Ming gave him the opportunity to have his cake and eat it too. He could use the reputation of Prince Zhao's Mansion and his family ties to win over others, thus finding a third way.

He looked up at the crowd, meeting their gazes. Bao Xiruo's eyes were full of love and hope, Yang Tiexin's eyes were full of tension and desire, Qiu Chuji's gaze was like a knife, staring at him, and the other Quanzhen Seven disciples also had scrutiny and suspicion in their eyes, but only in that man's eyes did he see indifference and depth. Yang Kang took a deep breath and met Qiu Chuji's gaze again, "Master, he is my biological father. I didn't recognize him before due to the situation and other reasons, but no matter what, he is my father, and this is a fact that cannot be changed."

"Wanyan Honglie is my adoptive father. He raised me and my son for sixteen years. I have to repay him. He is also my father." After saying this, he pressed his head tightly to the ground, motionless.

After hearing this, Qiu Chuji's eyes seemed to be spitting fire. He was clearly trying to have his cake and eat it too. To put it bluntly, he wanted to take the thief as his father! "Evil creature, do you really think so?"

However, what answered him was Yang Kang's determined look, "Master, I have no choice but to choose this!"

Qiu Chuji was defeated, "Don't call me Master, I am not qualified to be your Master!"

Bao Xiruo and Yang Tiexin on the side also looked disappointed. They thought the family could be reunited, but now it seems that their son is still greedy for the wealth of the palace.

The Han and the thieves cannot coexist, and the hatred between the Jin people and the Song people is difficult to wash away, not to mention that Yang Tiexin is the descendant of Yang Zaixing, a famous general who fought against the Jin people. He cannot accept that his child recognizes a Jin man as his father.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall gradually froze and no one spoke.

Su Ming saw that the situation was about right, so he spoke up and gave everyone a way out. "Everyone, please be patient and listen to what he has to say before making a decision. How do you think?"

The anger on Qiu Chuji's face subsided. He looked at his fellow disciples and nodded silently. If Yang Kang did not have the background of Prince Zhao's Mansion, he would never have tolerated him until now.

Yang Kang breathed a sigh of relief, gave Su Ming a grateful look, and calmed himself down before continuing, "I know that my father is a descendant of the Yang family and is irreconcilable with the Jin people, but have you ever thought about what the consequences would be if my mother and I left the Zhao Palace?"

"That man is very powerful in the Jin Kingdom. He can almost control the situation in the Jin Kingdom's court. If we anger him, we will definitely be hunted down. As long as he offers a large reward, countless people from the underworld will come looking for us. At that time, we will be dead."

"Master, I would like to ask you, if we confront Prince Zhao's Mansion, will Quanzhen Sect do its best to protect our family of three?"

Now, the question comes back to Qiu Chuji. Is it worth it to blatantly offend Wanyan Honglie for the sake of the three members of the Yang family? And there is also an implicit meaning in these words. This matter is inseparable from your Quanzhen Sect. Do you want to take the blame or not?

He memorized it, which was good. It was no big deal for him to leave Prince Zhao's Mansion and be a member of the Yang family and a disciple of Quanzhen Sect.

If he doesn't carry it, don't blame him, Yang Kang, for finding another way to make a living!
