For the rest of the banquet, Yang Chen didn't really enjoy the food. After some discussion, they felt that there shouldn't be anything to worry about in the Tang Clan Fort. That person's target should be Yang Chen, which made them feel relieved.
Thus, Yang Cheng and Cai Ning went to the residence that Tang Luyi had arranged for them.
Under the moonlight, the two of them walked along the paved road, the mountain breeze brushing past their hair.
Noticing that Yang Cheng was silent, Cai Ning asked softly, "Are you still worried about the ancient families?"
Yang Cheng did not hide anything. "To tell you the truth, I'm certain that the ancient families do exist. I'm not afraid of them. I've had enough close calls with them. If they dare to come, I will fight them head-on. What I'm worried about is that they will harm you like they did to the Tang Sect. I don't want the woman who sleeps beside me to stab me with a knife … "
Cai Ning smiled. "Then teach us well and take good care of us. At the very least, I know that none of the women around you are stupid. One day, we won't have to fear them anymore. "
Yang Cheng laughed heartily. "You sure are calm and collected. You don't even seem to mind talking about other women."
"I'm not your wife, what right do I have to mind? This is called finding joy in hardship. Isn't that what you're best at? Why are you so worried now? " Cai Ning rolled her eyes. "Besides, it's not like we're in a dire situation right now. That person doesn't even dare to come out to see you. Perhaps he knows that he's no match for you."
Yang Chen thought about it and agreed. He had never been a timid person. If he had to be afraid, he would only be afraid of women. Who cares if it's an ancient clan? I'll kill as many as they come. If they show up, I'll kill them all!
As they were about to reach the guest room, Yang Cheng grabbed Cai Ning's hand. "Ning 'er, let's go together."
Because Tang Luyi had arranged for two rooms, Yang Cheng was a little reluctant.
Cai Ning, of course, knew what he meant. "We have to go to the back mountain early tomorrow. Can't you wait a few more days …"
"You're not against it?" Yang Cheng was delighted.
"I …" Cai Ning didn't know what to say. In her heart, she yearned to be like her sister, Cai Yan. She wanted to reach that step with the person she liked. Otherwise, she would feel uneasy. But how could she say it?
Unexpectedly, before Cai Ning could speak again, that gorgeous figure once again walked over from afar.
"Of course not." Tang Luyi suddenly said.
Yang Chen looked depressed. "I say, Ning 'er is her master. No matter how much you like her disciple, you don't have to follow her everywhere."
Tang Luyi snorted coldly, "You think I want to? I'm just worried that you'll ruin Ning 'er' of your little sister's cultivation. "
Yang Chen was confused. "What do you mean?"
"You really don't know anything. I really don't know how you managed to cultivate to such a level." Tang Luyi sighed. "To a woman, the yin body is much more precious than a man's yang body. Ning Er was still a virgin, so she had a layer of Yin Essence protecting her body. The True Qi produced by her inner force was exceptionally pure. If you... lose your virginity, then breaking through to the Xiantian realm will be delayed for at least three years. If nothing goes wrong, with Ning 'er's talent, she should be able to step into the Xiantian Realm in one or two years. Are you really that anxious? Do you really want Ning' er to cultivate for three more years just for a moment of greed? "
Yang Cheng was stunned. He looked at the blushing Cai Ning and asked, "Really? Ning 'er, why didn't you say anything? "
Cai Ning stuttered, obviously admitting it, but she didn't know how to answer.
"Hmph, this silly girl. She can't open her mouth, but she doesn't want to refuse you. She would rather spend more time cultivating. Don't you understand her intentions?" Tang Luyi bristled with anger. "A grown girl can't be kept at home. Master has taught you for ten years, but it's nothing compared to the few months you've spent with this brat."
"It's not like that, Master …" Cai Ning tried to explain.
"There's no need to say more." Tang Luyi glanced at Yang Chen. "Since you're aware of it, you shouldn't touch Ning 'er. Tomorrow, you'll enter the Tower of Scrolls and study it thoroughly. With your understanding of cultivation, combined with the most orthodox techniques, I'm sure you'll learn a lot. If one day, I can help Ning 'er break through to the Xiantian realm, then I, as her Master, will be satisfied. "
Yang Cheng's heart was filled with warmth as he looked at the shy woman beside him. Although she was not as passionate as his sister, Choi Yeon, the tenderness in her eyes was more seductive.
That night, Yang Cheng did not touch Cai Ning again. This woman was so considerate of him, if he were to let her down, he would not be a man.
The next morning, as the sun was rising, Yang Cheng, accompanied by Tang Dianshan and Tang Luyi, made his way to the Tower of Scrolls.
Before he left, he bid farewell to Cai Ning. Although Cai Ning was a core disciple, she was not qualified enough to enter the Tower of Scrolls. She could only wait for Yang Cheng at the Tang Fort.
From the Tang Fort to the forest at the back of the mountain, the vegetation gradually changed from bamboo to cypress. Soon, a building made up of four ancient stone huts came into view.
Yang Cheng examined the huts and asked curiously, "There's no door here?"
Tang Dianshan explained, "These four huts are guarded by the four esteemed elders of the Tang Fort, Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow. These four elders are all over a hundred years old, and are the most likely to enter the Divine Transformation realm in the Tang Sect. Other than when they are about to enter the Tower of Scrolls, they are not to be disturbed. Naturally, they do not have the habit of opening their doors. "
"Then I have to fly in?" Yang Cheng asked.
"Indeed." Tang Dianshan cupped his hands in greeting. "This Tang and my sister can only escort Young Master Yang up to this point. Last night, we've already discussed this with our Senior Uncles. Young Master Yang can enter on his own, but the two of us cannot follow him in for no reason.
Tang Luyi said, "You can enter without a problem, but you must not harm the four elders. They are just doing their job."
Yang Cheng smiled. "Are they going to test me before they let me in?"
"Because you are not an official disciple of Shu Mountain, and you are not a member of the Tang Sect. According to the rules, outsiders who wish to enter the Tower of Scrolls must at least withstand three blows from the four elders. Otherwise, they would not be worthy of the Tang Sect's respect …" Tang Dianshan explained.
Yang Chen smiled. This rule meant that if you didn't have a cultivation base above the Soul Forming stage, you wouldn't be able to enter!
But those who were above the Divine Transformation realm would not be able to gain much from entering, so they had no interest in entering. At the end of the day, the Tower of Scrolls was not open to outsiders.
Yang Cheng said no more, and did not bother to use his cultivation. He leaped into the air, and like a lone swan, he flew to the center of the four stone huts.
In the center of the huts was a gray space, and the words "Tower of Scrolls" were written in gold on the ground.
Yang Cheng finally understood. This "tower" was actually a basement!
"My young friend, your cultivation is impressive, but I would still like to meet you!"
An ancient voice rang out from within the "Tian" stone hut. Immediately after, four waves of extremely pure Xiantian True Qi erupted from within the four stone huts!
Only then did Yang Cheng realize that there was something strange about the four stone huts. The stones did not obstruct the flow of True Qi, but when the True Qi passed through the stones, it felt exceptionally powerful!
To outsiders, the waves of True Qi that could crush a person in an instant were nothing to Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng had no interest in fighting them, so he stood in mid-air, allowing the True Qi to pass through his body!
The Heaven and Earth Restoration Force, which nurtured all things and merged with all things.
As soon as the True Qi entered Yang Cheng's body, it came out the same way it entered, without causing any damage!
Outside the Tower of Scrolls, Tang Dianshan and Tang Luyi, who were watching from afar, found it hard to calm down. They could not understand how Yang Cheng, who did not even put up any defensive measures, could completely ignore the True Qi of the Xiantian Perfected stage!
The Tian, Tian, Xuan, and Huang stone huts tried to increase their True Qi, but to no avail.
"My young friend, you are indeed an anomaly in the path of cultivation. Please enter the Tower of Scrolls for three days, and the Tower of Scrolls will open again …" From the Tian stone hut, the voice sounded a little helpless.
As soon as the words were spoken, the stone huts that were carved with the words "Tower of Scrolls" opened up in four directions, revealing a deep tunnel that seemed to be at least a hundred meters deep!
Yang Cheng nodded his head in greeting before descending into the tunnel. Even though Yang Cheng's cultivation had improved by leaps and bounds, he could not help but feel tempted at the thought of the Hidden Scriptures below.
He, the wild monk, had finally found an authentic temple. He wanted to see how the monks recited their scriptures!
