Jianchen sighed inside when he heard that. He never thought that after so many years, Kwon Youcai and Yang Ling would end up together.
"Kwon Youcai is so thick-skinned. Sometimes, he gives off the feeling of a scoundrel. You can't chase him away no matter how hard you try. Yang Ling, on the other hand, is quiet and honest. It's quite interesting for the two of them to end up together," Jianchen thought.
Very soon, the tall and burly Yang Ling was brought over. Along with him was the white-robed Kwon Youcai with an exquisite blue badge on his chest.
"Oh my, brother Yang Yutian, it really is you. I heard from the elders that you've come back to seek revenge on the eight great clans. I didn't believe it at first, but now that I've met you, it really is you." Kwon Youcai's eyes immediately lit up when he saw Jianchen. He was overjoyed. Afterwards, he acted as if he didn't see the president and grand elder sitting to the side. He strode over to Jianchen's side and circled around him. He studied Jianchen and asked in disbelief, "Brother Yang Yutian, were the elders telling the truth? Did you really come back to seek revenge on the eight great clans? Also, there was an intense battle in the sky above the City of God. Was that caused by you? "
The president frowned when he saw how Kwon Youcai was behaving. He growled, "Kwon Youcai, don't be so rude to brother Jianchen."
"Ah! Teacher, grand elder, the two of you are here as well. Kwon Youcai greets teacher and grand elder. " Kwon Youcai seemed to have only just noticed the existence of the president and grand elder. He immediately put away his frivolous expression and bowed to the two of them politely.
After Kwon Youcai failed to fuse with Radiant Saint Force, he had been accepted as a disciple by the president. However, his status was not like Jianchen and Yun Tian, who were direct disciples of the union. The relationship between Kwon Youcai and the president was like that between a teacher and a student.
Kwon Youcai was extremely respectful towards the president and grand elder. Before the two of them, he immediately behaved himself. He stood to the side obediently, not daring to say anything. His eyes constantly glanced at Jianchen. he wanted to say something, but he was afraid of the president and grand elder, so he didn't say anything.
Seeing his old friends, Jianchen's mood became much better. Although he and Kwon Youcai and Yang Ling could not be considered as close friends, the two of them had once been by his side.
"Kwon Youcai, let's catch up later," Jianchen said to Kwon Youcai who was standing there obediently with a smile on his face.
Kwon Youcai firmly nodded his head. He did not say anything else, but his eyes slyly glanced at the president and grand elder.
Jianchen looked at Yang Ling and carefully observed him. Although they had been separated for ten years, Yang Ling had not changed at all. He was the same as before.
"Yang Ling, it's been a few years since we last met. How have you been?" Jianchen smiled faintly.
Yang Ling looked at Jianchen with a complicated gaze. However, he still respectfully cupped his hands towards Jianchen and said, "Yang Ling greets the esteemed Master Yang Yutian. Many thanks for Master Yang Yutian's concern. Yang Ling has been well all these years. "
"Yang Ling, you can just call me Jianchen. Jianchen is my real name," Jianchen said.
"Yes, Master Jianchen." Yang Ling cupped his hands respectfully. His expression was still as respectful as before.
Jianchen leaned back on the soft chair and stared at Yang Ling with shining eyes. He calmly said, "Yang Ling, have you ever hated me?" Jianchen regarded Yang Ling with great importance. Yang Ling's position in Jianchen's heart far exceeded that of Kwon Youcai. It had even exceeded some of his ordinary friends.
Back on the boat on the Fragrance River, Jianchen had been assassinated by the experts of the eight great clans. Yang Ling had risked his life to protect Jianchen and escape. That scene had deeply touched Jianchen's heart.
"Yang Ling wouldn't dare!" Yang Ling had completely treated himself as a servant. He did not have the pride of a Sixth Cycle Heaven Saint Master at all. He behaved respectfully.
"Yang Ling, do you still remember the promise I made to you back then? Back then, I said that if there was a chance in the future, I would find a way to help you. Now, I'll fulfill my promise. I wonder if you're willing to come with me. I'll let you become a Saint Ruler," Jianchen swore. He was completely confident that he could let Yang Ling become a Saint Ruler.
Yang Ling's eyes immediately lit up when he heard the words' become a Saint '. He became wild with joy, but soon after, his eyes dimmed. He glanced at the president of the Bright Saint Master Guild.
The president chuckled, "Yang Ling, being able to follow by little brother Jianchen's side is the greatest fortune of your life. Why don't you hurry up and thank little brother Jianchen? I believe that with little brother Jianchen's guidance, you'll definitely soar in the future and become a supreme expert."
Yang Ling felt like he had been pardoned from the president's words. He became overjoyed and clasped his hands at Jianchen politely, "Thank you for your kindness, master Jianchen."
"Little brother Jianchen, we'll leave Yang Ling to you. In the future, he's yours. Our union won't interfere with any of Yang Ling's matters anymore." The president expressed his stance to Jianchen again. With Jianchen's current strength and status, the union would have no choice but to obey if he wanted to take someone away from their union. They would not dare to disobey.
At this moment, an elder of the union with a purple badge on his chest walked in with an embroidered box in his hand. He directly arrived beside the president and said, "President, I've already taken out what you wanted from the treasury."
The president took the brocade box from the elder's hand and slowly opened it. Three fist-sized white stones were quietly lying inside. The stones were square in shape and were sparkling and translucent. They looked like top-grade jade stones.
"Little brother Jianchen, we call these three rocks Flaming Jadeite. They're extremely rare rocks on the Tian Yuan Continent and are extremely difficult to find. Every single one of them is priceless and extremely difficult to purchase on the market. The Flaming Jadeite is a type of rock that can store energy. Depending on the quality of the rock, it can store different amounts of energy. If a Ninth Heavenly Layer Saint Ruler stores energy into the rock, the rock will be able to unleash an attack from a Ninth Heavenly Layer Saint Ruler even in the hands of an ordinary person. If a Holy Emperor stores energy into the rock, the rock will be able to unleash an attack from a Holy Emperor. The three Flaming Jadeites in my hands are of the highest quality. They can store the power of a Great Perfection expert like the Holy Emperor. Since little brother Jianchen has a family, I'll give these three rocks to little brother Jianchen. I hope they'll be of some help to little brother Jianchen, "the president walked over to Jianchen with the box and passed it to him.
Hearing the president's introduction, Jian Chen could not help but think back to the time when he had participated in the elimination round of the Radiant Saint Master Union in the artifact space. A Class 6 Radiant Saint Master from the Zaar family had brought a mysterious stone from the outside world that could unleash the power of a Saint King. Now, it seemed like the rock that contained the power of the Holy Emperor was the Flaming Jadeite that the president had introduced.
"Thank you for such a great gift, president." Jianchen did not refuse. He accepted the three rocks excitedly. The three rocks could store the power of the Holy Emperor at Great Perfection. In other words, if a Holy Emperor at Great Perfection were to store his power in the rocks, they would be able to unleash an attack of the Holy Emperor at Great Perfection in the hands of an ordinary person. They were basically treasures to Jianchen.
Jianchen stayed in the union for an entire day. During that time, he chatted a lot with the president and grand elder. He also mentioned Yun Tian. However, Jianchen learnt from the president that Yun Tian had gone missing. Even when they used a secret technique to search the entire continent, they failed to find any traces of Yun Tian.
When Jianchen emerged from the union, it was already dark outside. The curtain of darkness had descended, enveloping the entire sky. The entire land was enveloped in darkness.
"Brother Jianchen, it's been ten years since we last met. I don't know when we'll meet again. Tonight, I, Kwon Youcai, will be your host. I'd like to invite you to the most famous pleasure boat on the Fragrance River for a night of sightseeing. I wonder if you'll do me the honor." Kwon Youcai recovered his usual cheerful demeanor as soon as he left the union. He laughed at Jianchen.
Jianchen did not turn down Kwon Youcai's suggestion. Afterward, he boarded a carriage with the silent Yang Ling and directly made their way to the Fragrance River outside the city. Black Fish and Honglian followed them.
Ruijin had already entered the artifact space with the Flaming Jadeite Jianchen had obtained from the president of the union. He was channeling energy into the Flaming Jadeite while the four protectors of the Bloodsword sect had been sent away by Jianchen as well.
Jianchen could not help but close his eyes as he sat in the bumpy carriage. At that moment, he calmed down for once. Right now, he felt like he had returned to the past. He had become the esteemed Class 6 Radiant Saint Master once more.
Kwon Youcai had really invested a lot tonight. He had reserved the most famous pleasure boat on the Fragrance River, spending several hundred thousand purple coins. However, several hundred thousand purple coins was nothing to a Class 6 Radiant Saint Master.
The pleasure boat traveled through the night as the faint sound of a zither rang out, drifting on the surface of the river. The two banks of the river were brightly lit and bustling with activity. Every night, this would be the busiest place. It was where all the rich and noble gathered.
On the deck, Jianchen, Kwon Youcai, and Yang Ling drank to their hearts' content as they chatted. The White Tiger, who had shrunk to the size of a cat, emerged from the artifact space as well. It sat on a table filled with delicacies as it ate with relish.
You Yue remained in the artifact space, using the many low class magical beasts to increase her strength. The Artifact Spirit was secretly protecting her, so Jianchen was not worried about her life at all.
Black Fish and Honglian had followed Jianchen the entire time. However, they were not interested in participating in such an occasion due to their age. They sat at the end of the boat with their eyes closed.
A white streak of light shot through the night sky, directly flying toward Jianchen's boat before slowly landing on the deck.
Jianchen, Kwon Youcai, and Yang Ling all stared at the uninvited figure. It was a woman in a white dress. She seemed to be in her twenties and possessed an alluring beauty.
"Yang Yutian, you've finally appeared after disappearing for ten years." The woman smiled brightly as she slowly made her way toward Jianchen.
"I never thought it would be miss Kara Livi. It's been so many years, but miss Li Wei is still as graceful as ever," Jianchen smiled at the woman. She was the young lady of the Kara clan, Kara Livi.
