"If there's anything you don't understand in your cultivation or lack a cultivation method, you can ask the seniors for guidance." Yun Yang was beaming, growing more amiable.
"Oh, Your Highness, you must be joking. The brothers are so honest, why are you still calling us seniors? Just call us elder brothers. We old men are at a great advantage!"
A Crane Clan's Lord Saint said solemnly, "Don't worry, Your Highness. These seven brothers won't have any trouble here. Whether it's the cultivation method or the resources … we'll do our best. The resources we have may not catch Your Highness' eyes, but it's definitely not a problem to groom these brothers. If they don't advance in cultivation base to Your Highness' satisfaction when we meet again, Your Highness can just hold us accountable!"
"Alright, alright, alright. I'll entrust them to you then."
Yun Yang sighed softly and stood up, looking at the faraway sky with worry in his eyes. After a long time, he murmured in a daze, "This … the path of ruling the world … every step is filled with mountains of corpses and seas of blood, a bloody sight to behold …"
The tone of this sentence was filled with melancholy to the point that even his intestines were tied up. However, the yearning, the longing, the soaring heroism, and the domineering aura of conquering the world were also extremely clear and within reach!
It was an undisguised ambition that came from the bottom of his heart!
No, it should be called ambition!
The Lord Saints' eyes lit up like light bulbs! The path of ruling the world! His Highness has great ambitions!
Benevolence!
Modesty!
Respect for the wise!
Consideration for the big picture!
Great ambition!
The style of a ruler!
His Highness has fulfilled all the requirements!
We don't believe that there's a prince more suitable than His Highness to inherit the throne among the Fox Clan's princes!
As long as His Majesty the Fox Emperor is not blind, he won't choose another prince!
It looks like we need to discuss when is the best time to go over and seek refuge?
If it's too late, it'll be awkward when His Highness has already achieved great things.
How can adding flowers to a brocade compare to providing timely help?
The Lord Saints were calculating in their hearts.
If they went there too early and exposed themselves too early, not only would they be of no help, they might even be killed. But if they went there too late, the merit of helping the dragon … Don't joke around, alright? So … this timing was crucial.
They had to discuss this carefully.
"Old Tree, what do you plan to do?"
Yun Yang asked.
The Illusory Tree's aged face appeared, and he said with a smile, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. However, this Old Tree doesn't have much time left … Let me stay with Little Bear and the others. Please, Your Highness. "
Yun Yang nodded slowly and said, "Alright. I hope we'll meet again in the future. Take care. "
The illusion tree said meaningfully, "Your Highness, take care!"
"En!"
In less than two hours, a thunderbolt flashed in the sky, and the Ninth Crane flew through the forest like a streamer.
Glancing around, he saw that there were still two piles of heavenly treasures and strange metals piled up on the ground. He couldn't help but cry out in his heart, "What a close shave!"
As expected, His Highness looked down on these low-grade goods.
Fortunately, he had been quick-witted and had gone back to plunder a lot of high-quality items …
Otherwise, how could he have left a good impression in His Highness' heart? Needless to say, there was no need to even mention his fondness!
With a wave of his hand, he kept the two piles on the ground into his spatial ring. Together with the other spatial ring in his hand, there were two rings in total, and he handed them all to Yun Yang. "Your Highness … this is a small token of my appreciation. Please do me the honor and accept it."
Yun Yang smiled. "Big Brother Jiutian is very thoughtful. If so, I shall accept it shamelessly. "
As he spoke, he accepted the ring.
The Ninth Crane was overjoyed, his face glowing. "It's our greatest honor that Your Highness is willing to accept it!"
Yun Yang chuckled and conversed with them separately. He was calm and amicable, his grace and poise making one feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze. They could not help but feel a surging feeling of 'a scholar would die for a bosom friend'.
So, there really is a natural king in this world!
Yet, we've met one. This is a chance bestowed by the heavens. We're so lucky!
After staying for another hour, Yun Yang bade farewell again. "There's really no time left. I have to go …"
Yun Yang sighed. "Take care, everyone. I'll be waiting for all of you over there. "
The reason why he said 'over there' instead of a specific place was because Yun Yang did not know where the Fox Clan's palace was. If he said anything more, he might be exposed …
"Your Highness, take care too!"
"White Bear and the others … and the old tree … please …"
"Your Highness is too kind. We'll do our best to nurture them."
"Farewell."
"Have a safe journey, Your Highness!"
"Master, take care!"
Seven Supreme Lords and a soul cultivator bowed at the same time, while White Bear and the others knelt and kowtowed to send them off.
Yun Yang chuckled softly. "Of course, we'll meet again."
He floated up and left at a leisurely pace. Although he was moving slowly, he did not turn back.
The tall, elegant silhouette flickered in the eyes of the Supreme Lords for a good while before it disappeared, never to be seen again.
It was only then that Crane Jiutian and the others straightened up and heaved a long sigh of relief.
A smile hung on each of their faces. It was a joy that came from the bottom of their hearts.
When they looked at each other, they could see the excitement in each other's eyes, as if their long-cherished wish had been fulfilled.
"Brother White Bear!"
Crane Jiutian laughed and hugged White Bear's shoulder. "Come, come, come back with me. Let's go have a drink."
White Bear Bai was embarrassed. "I don't dare … I don't deserve it …"
"Sigh, what's there to not deserve? Are you looking down on me? "Crane Jiutian laughed." From now on, we're blood brothers! Brothers, don't you agree? "
"Yes! We're blood brothers! The seven of you are all our blood brothers! "
The Supreme Lords laughed together.
"Wait till we send that fellow back. Let's go about our business. " Crane Jiutian glanced at Heaven Crown King and felt some lingering fear. "If it weren't for us brothers being flexible and changing quickly, we would have been killed by this fellow this time … It was too close!"
The other Supreme Lords were also frightened when they heard this.
Although they had turned their hostility into peace and turned death into opportunity, the hardships they had gone through were not worth mentioning to outsiders. If they were to do it again, perhaps they would all be finished!
"We have this fellow's weakness in our hands. It'll be easier to do things in the future."
Crane Jiutian said, "It's better to leave him alive."
"Big Brother is right."
"Let's go back quickly. We still have some things to discuss." Obviously, Crane Jiutian had already thought of what the Supreme Lords were thinking.
"Yes, we'll discuss it when we get back."
"We'll listen to Big Brother."
"Sigh, it's just a discussion. We're destined to be ministers of the same palace in the future, and we need to take care of each other, hahaha …"
…
I'm not the same as I was a few years ago when I was young … Just eight thousand words a day can make it so difficult for me now. Thinking back to the past, I often write tens of thousands of words a day … Suddenly, I feel really old … This feeling really pisses me off! gt;
