For a moment, Yang Chen thought that the scripture he handed over had fallen into the hands of the Xiao clan. However, he soon realized that it wasn't right. If the person who took the scripture was the one who took it, why would he place it here for the cultivators of the clan to read?
Incomplete manual? Incomplete manual?!
Yang Cheng thought it was ridiculous. Of course it was an incomplete manual. Because the last level of the Endless Resolve Restoration Scripture did not have a manual. There was only the word "rebirth"!
But then, Yang Cheng became suspicious.
Why did the Xiao family have the Endless Resolve Restoration Scripture? And it was something passed down from ancient times. Or did the Xiao family originally come from the Xiao family?
No one knew how long this ancient manual had been here. Countless people had read it and practiced it. Otherwise, the Elders would not have made such a special conclusion.
Yang Chen felt as if there was a thin layer of film blocking in front of him. He had a vague premonition of what was behind it, but it was shrouded in fog. He couldn't see through it for a while, so he could only give up for now.
Lan Fei urged, "Brother Xiao, hurry up and choose another cultivation technique. This cultivation technique is really useless."
Yang Chen nodded with a smile and randomly picked a sword controlling technique called Eighteen Swords of Lianyun. This sword controlling technique wasn't outstanding, it was average, even slightly lacking compared to some of the Shushan sword techniques used by Huilin. Yang Chen only planned to pretend to use the flying sword in the future to confuse some people.
Just as the two of them were about to leave the tower, a fashionably dressed handsome man slowly descended from above and entered the fifth floor.
It was the young master of the Xiao family, Xiao Qiufeng. He looked happy at the moment, as if he was in a good mood.
Seeing him pass through the formation without any obstruction, Yang Cheng finally saw the advantage of the Xiao family. They did have a special method to break through the formation.
"I was wondering who it was. So it's you two? Are you here to choose a manual? " Although Xiao Qiufeng had just entered the Distant Fire Stage and his cultivation was not high in the family, he was the eldest son after all. He did not even look at Yang Cheng and Lan Fei.
Lan Fei immediately lowered his head. "Yes, Young Master. I'm about to go down."
"You can leave. Xiao Chen, stay. I have something to say to him." Xiao Qiufeng raised his head.
Lan Fei was stunned, but he didn't dare to ask. He nodded at Yang Cheng and flew down first.
After Lan Fei left, an evil smile appeared on Xiao Qiufeng's face. He took out a red pill and asked, "Xiao Chen, you have a low grade Red Dew Pill. Do you want it?"
Although Yang Cheng didn't know what Xiao Qiufeng was planning, it was most likely that he was up to something. He was thinking … Should he take this opportunity to kill Xiao Qiufeng, then disguise himself as him and fly directly to the prison at the top of the tower?
However, when he thought about it carefully, even if he disguised as him and entered the top of the pagoda without being discovered by the elders, if he found Hsiao Chih-ching, he would not be able to take her away easily. Xiao Tingxu was guarding outside. Moreover, if he couldn't find Hsiao Chih-ching, he wouldn't be able to continue staying in the Xiao family. The gains wouldn't make up for the losses.
Thus, he pretended to be greedy. Yang Cheng hurriedly said, "Of course I want to. Thank you, Young Master!"
Xiao Qiufeng immediately looked at him with disdain. He thought that Yang Cheng was in a daze because of a low grade pill. He said leisurely, "Then do something for me and I'll give you the pill."
"May I ask what it is? Xiao Chen will not disappoint Young Master!" Yang Cheng smiled apologetically.
Xiao Qiufeng walked in front of him and laughed evilly in a low voice, "It's very simple. Aren't you close to the Zhao siblings? After 10 o 'clock tonight, think of a way to take Zhao Muyang away from their residence. The further the better. For example, go to the martial arts field to spar. In short, don't let him stay by Zhao Ting's side …"
When Yang Cheng heard this, how could he not know what this guy was up to. He secretly sneered. Xiao Qiufeng couldn't hold it in so quickly. He had seen him lusting for Zhao Ting before.
Although a large number of cultivators in the illusory realm wholeheartedly pursued the Heavenly Dao, there was no lack of those who knew that they weren't talented enough and were obsessed with beauty, power, and status. Obviously, Xiao Qiufeng put most of his thoughts on beauty.
However, when Xiao Qiufeng mentioned it, Yang Cheng suddenly thought of a plan. He secretly snickered, but his face showed determination after struggling and hesitating.
"Yes, Xiao Chen will definitely complete the task Young Master gives!"
Xiao Qiufeng laughed loudly and patted Yang Cheng's shoulder. "Good, if you succeed this time, don't worry. The Zhao Clan won't dare to do anything to you. I'm here."
Yang Cheng snorted coldly in his heart. Who would believe you? He was guaranteed to be the scapegoat when the time came. However … after tonight, it didn't matter anymore.
When he came out of the Azure Emperor's Pagoda, Lan Fei was still waiting outside. There was a trace of worry in his eyes.
Xiao Qiufeng was obviously not a good person in the clan. Everyone knew that, so Lan Fei didn't leave.
Seeing that Yang Cheng came out safely, Lan Fei's face lit up. He stepped forward and said, "Brother Xiao, is everything okay?"
"No, Young Master just wanted to ask me how I trained my body. I told you the truth, and everything is fine." Yang Cheng casually made up a story.
Lan Fei heaved a sigh of relief. "In the future, in the Xiao Clan, you have to be wary of a few people. Young Master is one, and Second Madam is another."
"Oh? Why do you say that? "Yang Cheng asked as he walked.
"Young Master is not in the mood to train. He has been in the Distant Fire Stage for many years, but he hasn't made any progress. The main reason is that he puts all his effort into beauty. Many of the Xiao Clan's female cultivators have been touched by him. He also has relationships with many Itinerant Cultivators and female cultivators from other clans … Ah, beauty is emptiness, emptiness is beauty. There are always people who can't see through it." Lan Fei shook his head and sighed.
"What about Second Madam?" Yang Cheng always felt that Xu Yanan was a bit strange. Logically speaking, she was Hsiao Chih-ching's stepmother, so she could be considered as his mother-in-law. However, Yang Cheng didn't have the slightest opinion of her.
First, this woman had no blood relationship with Hsiao Chih-ching. Second, this woman had abused Hsiao Chih-ching before. She didn't have the awareness of being a mother.
Lan Fei looked around and confirmed that there was no one around. After confirming that it was safe, he lowered his voice and said to Yang Cheng mysteriously, "I also heard it from an old cultivator here. Because Second Madam is Sword Maniac Xu Shaogong's sister, her position in the Xiao Clan isn't lower than the Xiao Clan's two masters.
The Xiao Clan's second master has always been outside the clan leading his clansmen to search for alchemy materials. He's in charge of external affairs and rarely comes back. Therefore, it's inevitable that Second Madam is lonely. Occasionally, there will be rumors of her liking some young and handsome cultivator. "
The corner of Yang Cheng's mouth curled up slightly. He smiled strangely and said, "It seems that Brother Lan Fei is also very interested in these rumors. I thought you were only interested in cultivation."
Lan Fei's expression became awkward. He sighed and said, "I don't want to either. However, when I interact with other cultivators and learn from each other, it's hard to avoid hearing these rumors. Moreover, in order to survive in the Xiao Clan, I have to understand more.
For example, there have been many young cultivators who were executed by the Xiao Clan because they said that they 'offended' her. To put it bluntly, it's just that when the matter is exposed, they will be directly killed. "
"You and I are not considered handsome. You can rest assured." Yang Cheng joked.
However, Lan Fei said seriously, "Brother Xiao is a handsome man. You really have to be careful. I'm a crude man, dark and ugly. I will definitely not be targeted …"
Yang Cheng smiled and waved his hand, indicating that it was impossible. In his heart, he thought that the beautiful and voluptuous woman in the water-colored dress was indeed a stunner. If a cultivator had lustful thoughts, they would really not be able to resist. Lan Fei was probably speaking the truth.
As for his cheap father-in-law, Xiao Mozheng, he was busy outside. It seemed that he was not as good as his big brother Xiao Mohui in the fight for power. No wonder he didn't see him.
When they were about to part ways, Yang Cheng suddenly thought of something and said, "Brother Lan Fei, my brother Zhao Muyang from the Zhao Clan is in the early stage of Distant Fire. He's been worrying that he can't find a suitable opponent to cultivate with. Are you willing to learn from him?"
When Lan Fei heard this, his eyes lit up. "Although he has just entered the Tribulation Passing Stage, his cultivation is still much higher than mine. I'm already close to the Tribulation Passing Stage. It's naturally a good thing to learn from an opponent who is a level lower than me! I just don't know if Zhao Muyang is willing. "
Yang Cheng smiled brightly. "Don't worry. You've answered a lot of questions for me. You and I are friends, so you can count on me. I'll ask him to find you tonight at 11 o 'clock. You have to seize the opportunity to learn from him."
Lan Fei was overjoyed. Normally, Tribulation Passing Stage cultivators would not bother to learn from Soul Forming Stage cultivators. He immediately nodded and agreed.
