Yang Cheng was dismayed. Tang Luyi, that b * tch, should have spent her time recuperating after waking up. Yang Cheng had purposely left her internal injuries untreated as a small punishment. Who would have thought that she would come looking for the two of them, even with her injuries!
"Come on then, I'm planning to do it with Big Sister Cai in this beautiful bamboo forest. Isn't this the time to be full of affection?" What are you trying to do?!
But since she was already here, the two of them decided not to continue.
Cai Ning blushed as she hid behind Yang Cheng, lowering her head, not daring to look at her master.
Tang Luyi's face was a little pale, but she seemed to be fine. With a complicated expression on her face, she flew over from the bamboo trees and landed a few meters away from the two. She was not affected by her internal injuries at all. She was indeed a level higher than Cai Ning's disciple, and she did not seem to be affected by her internal injuries.
"Hmph, hugging in the bamboo forest in broad daylight, aren't you ashamed?" Tang Luyi said coldly, but there was a hint of tenderness in her eyes.
Yang Cheng was displeased, "Hey, I'm not kissing you, why are you angry?"
"You …" Tang Luyi's blood was boiling, but she did not dare to refute Yang Cheng, for she knew that he was not someone she could afford to offend.
"Seeing that you've saved the Tang Sect, I won't lower myself to your level." Tang Luyi said haughtily.
Yang Cheng shook his head, "Ning Er, your master is suffering from Big Head Syndrome. His mind is being controlled by someone else, and yet he thinks he's so great."
"What did you say?!" Tang Luyi almost coughed up blood.
"Alright, alright!"
Cai Ning quickly tried to smooth things over. She looked at her master and tugged at Yang Cheng's hand, "Don't talk so much. After all, he's my master, an elder."
Yang Cheng was not really angry with Tang Luyi. Although her words were cold, when she looked at Cai Ning, there was an undetectable tenderness in her eyes. She loved her disciple dearly.
"Master, you came to find us personally. Is there something you need?" Cai Ning asked softly. She was still a little afraid of this strict master.
Tang Luyi was silent for a moment before she asked softly, "How have you been these past few years?"
Cai Ning was stunned. When she came back to her senses, she felt that her nose was a little sour. Her eyes were red as she shook her head and smiled. "Yes, thank you for your concern, Master …"
"That's good to hear …" Tang Luyi smiled bitterly. "Don't be like Master, keeping your eyes on him …"
As she spoke, Tang Luyi glared at Yang Cheng. "Yang Cheng, I know you are an extraordinary man. I also know that I, or even the entire Tang Family, are no match for you. However, Ning 'er is a disciple that I have raised for ten years and watched grow up. To me, she is like half a daughter. I can be strict with her, because in this way, she will not lose out. But you can't. You have to cherish her, love her, and treat her like a pearl. If you hurt her, I will haunt you even if I turn into a vengeful spirit! "
Yang Cheng was taken aback. He did not expect Tang Luyi to be so forthright in the matter of Cai Ning. He had thought that Tang Luyi would be prejudiced against men, and would find him an eyesore.
"Hmph, do you think that I would be against you and Ning 'er being together?" Tang Luyi seemed to have read Yang Cheng's mind. "I am after all, her Master, not her mother. I have no say in her life. I, Tang Luyi, may not be fond of filthy men, but I am not an unreasonable shrew. "I am well aware of your vicious reputation. If not for Ning 'er's place in your heart, you would not have let us off the hook, nor would you have saved us from our inner demons. You have been a great benefactor to the Tang Family, and I will not bite the hand that feeds me. "
Yang Cheng chuckled. "When you are under someone's control, you are not as pleasant to the eye as you are now. Not bad, this is how a Xian Tian Perfected master should behave. "
"There's no need for such empty flattery. I know you're not interested in mere Xiantian cultivators like us." Tang Luyi looked at Yang Chen with a strange expression, as if she was puzzled by the fact that a young man like him could possess such a terrifying cultivation.
Cai Ning's eyes were brimming with tears. The years had passed, and the Master whom she hated and loved at the same time, was still as beautiful and graceful as when she first met her. She had watched her grow up and taught her everything she knew. Although she was not her birth mother, she had poured her heart and soul into Cai Ning, far more than her birth mother.
"Master." Cai Ning called out softly.
Tang Luyi's body trembled slightly as she looked at her disciple.
Cai Ning gritted her teeth and threw herself at her Master. She hugged Tang Luyi tightly and leaned on her shoulder.
"Master, Ning 'er has missed you …"
Tang Luyi's frosty face softened as she patted her disciple's back.
"Silly girl, why didn't you come back? Why did you have to wait for so many years?"
"Ning 'er has missed Master, but … but I'm afraid Master will scold me …"
"I've always said that you're a silly girl. You've grown up, and you're no longer a child. Why would Master scold you for no reason?"
Tang Luyi gently stroked Cai Ning's hair as she sighed softly.
Yang Cheng stood a few steps away from the two women as he watched silently. He could not help but think of the unkempt man who had taught him the Endless Resolve Restoration Scripture when he was still a child. His heart was filled with bitterness as he sighed.
After the two women had calmed down, Tang Luyi finally got down to business.
Tang Dianshan and the rest of the Elders had woken up. Recalling the events that had transpired, they felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles. Without further ado, they invited Yang Cheng over, hoping to express their gratitude and discuss their next course of action.
Of course, when they saw the ruins of the palace that Yang Cheng had razed to the ground, their hearts trembled in fear.
As it was nearing nightfall, Yang Cheng and Cai Ning followed Tang Luyi to a banquet hall, where a sumptuous banquet had already been prepared.
Tang Dianshan led a group of Xiantian Realm Elders who had been rescued. When they saw Yang Cheng, they rushed out to greet him. Everyone bowed respectfully.
"Many thanks to Childe Yang for saving our Tang Family Fort. On behalf of the thousands of Tang Family Fort members, I, Tang Dianshan, offer my deepest gratitude. In the future, if Childe Yang has any requests, we of the Tang Family Fort will not hesitate to lend a helping hand!"
Tang Dianshan broke out in cold sweat as he recalled what had happened. If they had been carelessly manipulated by Yang Chen, then the Tang Clan would no longer exist. Without the support of a Xiantian master, there was no way they could compete with the likes of Kunlun and Shaolin. Without a Xiantian master, the Tang Clan would no longer be able to compete with the other major sects.
Yang Cheng was not in the mood to listen to their words of gratitude. These empty words were not as eye-catching as the sumptuous banquet that had been laid out on the table. He had not eaten for a whole day, and although he was not hungry, he was craving for food. Hence, he smiled and said, "That … Headmaster Tang, let's skip the formalities. Let's eat, let's eat …"
The Tang Family Fort members were dumbfounded. This young master of the Yang Family was not only a powerful cultivator, but he was also a friendly person. He did not put on an act, nor did he possess any superior skills. Instead, he invited them to eat?
If Yang Cheng knew that he could not be bothered to entertain them, he would probably be rolling on the floor in laughter.
Normally, Cai Ning, as a disciple, would not have had the right to sit at such a banquet. But now that she had become the benefactor of the Tang Family Fort's elders, things were different.
Tang Dianshan and the rest of the Tang Family Fort members showered Cai Ning with compliments. Cai Ning's cheeks were burning hot. She had not done anything special, and yet she had become the most outstanding disciple of the Tang Family Fort.
During the banquet, many toasts and toasts were exchanged. Yang Cheng did not reject any of them. After all, these people were not the type to get drunk. The wine was made from the Tang Family Fort's own wine, which had a 60% alcohol content. It was mixed with the Tang Family Fort's secret recipe, and had the effect of strengthening one's body. The fiery heat of the wine penetrated his throat, and made Yang Cheng feel very satisfied.
Yang Cheng's appetite was very good, and he ate as he drank. Half a suckling pig went down his stomach, and the Tang Family Fort members saw that he did not seem to have any intention of stopping.
Although they did not know what the Soul Formation Stage was, they knew that experts at that level did not need to eat or drink. But the way Yang Cheng ate, it was clear that he was a glutton. He did not look like an expert at all. Not only was his mouth full of grease, but he was also licking his fingers from time to time!
The Tang Family Fort members were still hoping to discuss what had happened in the afternoon. But looking at Yang Cheng's attitude, it seemed that he had forgotten about the important matter!
Finally, Tang Dianshan could not help but laugh. "Childe Yang, we are here today to borrow a skill from the Tower of Scrolls, right? I wonder if we can discuss it together now?"
