The Old Marshal stared at his hand, unable to comprehend what had happened.
The table he had made from warm jade was a gift from His Majesty the Emperor; it was considered a treasure. How could it have shattered with a single slap? Even if he had used all his cultivation base to slap it, it would not have shattered so thoroughly!
At most, it would have been broken.
How could he explain the situation before him?
His Majesty the Emperor would never do such a thing. As for Yun Yang, that child … the old marshal could see it clearly. His cultivation base was not even at the first heaven of mystical Qi; he had not even crossed the first peak, let alone turning this sturdy jade dining table into dust without him noticing. Furthermore, he had left it in its original state so that he would not be able to tell!
It was impossible.
"What the hell …"
The corners of the Old Marshal's lips twitched. There was nothing more mysterious in this world than this!
…
When Yun Yang returned home, Lao Mei's expression was very interesting.
Even Fang Mofei's expression was a little strange.
"Young Master, today … Since you went out, there has been an endless stream of guests coming to our mansion …"
The corners of Lao Mei's lips twitched.
He had been in the Residence of Yun for more than three years, but this was the first time he had seen such a bustling Residence of Yun!
It was an endless stream of people coming and going.
"Who's here?"
"The Ling Family, Ma Family, Qin Family … seven young masters' families have sent people over. Ling, Ma, and Qin Family's young masters have come while the other families have sent gifts …"
"Hmm. What else? "
"Four young masters from the North, South, East, and West Families have all come today …"
"Hmm."
"Also … six or seven beautiful young ladies with their maids have come … Young master is not here, they seem to be very angry …" Lao Mei looked at his young master with little circles in his eyes.
He really could not understand it.
Since when did his young master become so fated with women? So many beautiful ladies had come to his door just to see him?
Yun Yang rubbed his brows with two fingers. "Have they left?"
"Yes."
"Young Master Dong Tianleng has been waiting here for the whole afternoon. He only left just now, sighing when he left …"
Lao Mei said.
"Don't mind him." Yun Yang felt that hiding out for a day was a wise move. So many people had come looking for him, the constant social interaction could probably knock him out.
"How is Old Fang today?"
"It's an improvement from yesterday," Fang Mofei said.
"Mm." Yun Yang nodded and returned to his room, reeking of alcohol. The moment he entered the room, the smell of alcohol on his body and the hazy smell of alcohol in his eyes flew away in an instant.
"Meow …"
"Meow …"
A weak cry rang out. A corner of the blanket on Yun Yang's bed was pushed up, revealing four snow-white heads. From the looks of it, they were four identical kittens.
But the sound was different.
The four little critters were all under the blanket, only their heads poking out, their eight sparkling eyes looking at Yun Yang.
Yun Yang was overwhelmed by her cuteness.
"Haven't I told you all so many times?" Yun Yang frowned at the three tiny Eclipse Panthers with a pained expression. "Don't meow next time, meow … Why can't you remember?"
"Meow …" The three little critters looked at Yun Yang with an aggrieved expression and meowed again.
"I've really been defeated by all of you." Yun Yang held his forehead. The three little critters crawled out of the blanket happily and scurried onto Yun Yang's body.
Yun Yang was actually quite accomplished. The Eclipse Panthers' cries were usually 'meow', similar to a tiger's. However, Yun Yang had forcefully changed them to 'meow' …
It could be said that he had already succeeded halfway.
As for the other half, if he were to change it … these little critters would probably cause a huge commotion in the mystical beast world.
A few meowing Eclipse Panthers came over …
This was practically subversive.
It was obvious that Yun Yang was walking on this path with determination.
Yun Yang sat down with his legs crossed and began to cultivate. The Endless Divine Art flowed slowly, Yun Yang wanted to break through the first peak today!
However, once he started cultivating, Yun Yang felt the difference immediately.
Why was there so much more air of vitality in his meridians this time? Furthermore, the moment he started cultivating, his mystical Qi began to surge violently. It was much stronger than it was in the morning!
This … was already a sight of breaking through the first peak.
What was going on?
Yun Yang controlled his mystical Qi to break through but … there was no difficulty at all as he charged through! In addition, the spiritual Qi in his meridians still had some energy to push his cultivation base upwards. When he had completely stabilized the first stage, he had even taken a small step forward.
Yun Yang only dispersed the Qi in his dantian after he had charged through. Before he could inspect himself, he had sunk into his subconscious.
This energy came from within.
It was definitely not an external force.
Other than Emmie, there was no other possibility.
Looking over, Emmie was swaying left and right happily, waving its arms and legs …
Looking at Emmie again, its originally light green leaves had turned into a dark green!
Seeing Yun Yang appear, Emmie was even more excited. It actually twisted its body and a thin vine extended towards Yun Yang.
Even its vine had come out, and it could stretch so long!
Yun Yang was instantly terrified, retreating with a swoosh. Emmie was left with its thin vine frozen in the air, unable to come to its senses for a moment.
Why did it leave so soon?
Once Yun Yang came out, he quickly checked himself. What was it that he had lost?
Could it be that something beside him had been swallowed again?
He could not help but feel puzzled as he did not find anything missing.
Emmie must have absorbed some great nourishment, otherwise, it would be impossible to have such an obvious change.
But … what had it eaten?
Yun Yang turned and entered his subconscious again.
After a round of interrogation, Emmie was helpless. It waved its leaves and conjured the image of a table, indicating that it had only eaten a table.
Yun Yang was dumbstruck when he saw it.
This … This …
Was this not the table in Old Marshal Qiu's house? He had been using this table to eat just now!
That … that was the Heart of Ice and Warmth Jade!
Legend had it that His Majesty the Emperor had taken pity on the Old Marshal for a lifetime of military service and had specially bestowed a set of treasures to him. From the bed to the table, chair, bowl and chopsticks, they were all made of the Heart of Ice and Warmth Jade …
There was only this set in the entire Empire of Yutang!
The effect was magical.
Who would have thought that the Old Marshal had lost the table just because he had invited a guest?
Yun Yang was speechless.
Looking at Emmie's drooping leaves and dejected look, he could not bear to scold it. He could only sigh and think of a way to compensate the Old Marshal in the future …
Sigh, it was fortunate that the Old Marshal did not stay overnight. Otherwise, that bed …
Yun Yang felt an inexplicable sense of regret when he thought of this. Why did I not perform better? If the Old Marshal had asked me to stay overnight, wouldn't that bed have been swallowed as well?
…
The entire night passed.
Yun Yang circulated his cultivation base continuously, digesting the energy of bliss that surged in his body into his own; the Endless Divine Art circulated again and again.
Any treasure was only a treasure. No external force could compare to his own strength!
Yun Yang only stopped when his meridians felt like they were about to explode.
Yun Yang did not even open his eyes when the tiny silhouette entered through the window. It was the Eclipse Panther that he had sent out on a mission. When it returned and saw that Yun Yang was cultivating, it leaped straight into his embrace and did not return for the entire night.
The three Eclipse Panthers and the Lightning Cat that had been by Yun Yang's side were now obediently lying close to him. None of them fought for the spot in his embrace.
They all knew that their boss did not come back often as he was out on a mission. This best spot had to be left for their boss. After all, they had plenty of opportunities by their master's side.
Dawn.
The tiny white silhouette turned around longingly before it left through the window.
…
Yun Yang opened his eyes slowly, a flash of lightning flashing across them. The first heaven could only be seen after crossing the first mountain. This statement was not false at all.
Each mountain had its own difficulty.
Before breaking through the first stage, Yun Yang was only a small fry. Although he had countless skills and experiences, he could not put any of them to use.
However, after breaking through the first stage, Yun Yang already had the strength to protect himself.
In addition, the resilient mystical Qi within him made Yun Yang feel like he was filled with energy!
He stood up; he had not slept for the entire night, but he was in high spirits.
In his hand, a strange piece of jade glowed. When Yun Yang circulated his cultivation base, a few messages appeared on it.
"Battle in the north of the city at midnight. Four Secret Guards dead, thirteen injured. The murderer escaped with heavy injuries. Currently on the trail."
"Assassination of Young Master Yun was fruitless."
"Assassination of Young Master Yun was fruitless."
"Fruitless. Suspect that the killer has left Tiantang after missing his target."
…
Fruitless.
Yun Yang's eyes flashed.
Could he have really left?
Yun Yang's doubts lingered for a moment before he pushed them to the back of his mind. Since the killer had accepted the mission, he would not give up easily. He only had to wait for them to come again!
It was no big deal.
As for the killer who had escaped, he was not a simple character. He had actually managed to break through the siege when the Residence of Marshal's elites had been deployed. Right now, he could only wait for news.
The urgent matter now was Dong Tianleng, the Great Young Master Dong who had been waiting at the door since early in the morning!
When Yun Yang saw Dong Tianleng, he broke down completely. He was absolutely dumbfounded!
It had only been a day but Dong Tianleng could no longer recognize him!
"You are …" Yun Yang looked at the pig head in front of him. His eyes were more panda than a panda's, his nose was crooked, his lips were swollen by two inches, his ears were torn and his face was a mix of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue and purple …
All in all, he did not look like he did yesterday!
"I am Dong Tianleng …" Dong Tianleng opened his mouth to speak. Yun Yang saw that his gums were still bleeding … He struggled to open his eyes that were so swollen that they were only a slit left and said in a tearful voice.
Yun Yang was speechless.
It had only been one night, but why did he look like he had been beaten up by a hundred burly men?
"What happened?" Yun Yang looked at the two guards beside Dong Tianleng. These two guards were calm and composed, not a single wound on them. Moreover, they did not show any expression when they saw their young master beaten up like this.
This was too strange!
Moreover, the Double-headed Elysian Lion's fur was missing here and there, bleeding there. It was obvious that it had been beaten up as well.
Yun Yang felt that he could not understand this matter.
