Beauty and shopping were the innate hobbies of every woman. Very few people were an exception to this. Mo Yan and Xi Yu were naturally the same. Even though Xi Yu had become a God now and could be regarded as an expert in the entire Divine Kingdom of Pingtian, she was still unable to resist her innate love for beauty as a woman.
Xi Yu and Mo Yan had an extremely good time in the royal capital. They went shopping like crazy, sweeping through everything that caught their eye. They spent money like it was nothing.
With Xi Yu's status and wealth as a God, she was naturally able to bear such expenses easily.
"Sister Xi Yu, the Imperial United Merchant's Association will be holding a centennial auction in the royal capital in three days. It'll definitely be very lively. Let's go take a look then," Mo Yan said to Xi Yu excitedly and eagerly.
Xi Yu nodded, "There should be quite a few good things appearing in the centennial auction. Let's go take a look then. Hopefully, we'll come across the supreme quality materials that the patriarch told us to find."
The supreme quality materials that Xi Yu mentioned were naturally what Jianchen needed to forge the twin swords. When Jianchen left the Tianyuan family, he had listed out all the materials he needed to forge the twin swords. With the assistance of the sword spirits, he had recorded down all the characteristics of the materials and how to make them so that the people of the Tianyuan family could collect them.
Unfortunately, all the materials that Jianchen needed were supreme quality. They were just far too rare in a place like the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian, so he had yet to discover any of them. Apart from the Violet Scale Rock and Profound Lightning Rock he had found in the Divine King's Space Ring, the Tianyuan family had never been able to find anything.
The Yang family was located in a huge estate near the centre of the royal capital. With the estate as the centre, the area within a radius of five kilometers was a forbidden zone that no one but the members of the Yang family could enter.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the majestic discussion hall within the huge manor of the Yang family was particularly oppressive. Not only was the patriarch of the Yang family present, but he sat on the throne that represented the patriarch expressionlessly. There were over twenty men and women of various ages below him. They were all Gods, and all of them were stern.
The young master of the Yang family, Yang Tie, stood in the centre of the discussion hall. His clothes had already been dyed red with blood. One of his arms had already disappeared. Intense pain came from where his arm had been severed, causing the muscles on his face to constantly twist.
"Father, this is what happened. That person has gone too far, provoking our Yang family time and time again. To think that our Yang family is one of the top clans, when have we ever been looked down upon like this?" Yang Tie recounted the entire incident with great embellishment. In his heart, he already hated Jianchen to the bone.
As soon as Yang Tie finished speaking, an elder to the left of the patriarch said furiously, "Hmph, what a bunch of nonsense. There were four elders present, yet that person was still able to kill a God so easily. Only an Overgod can do something like that. Just what kind of status do Overgods possess? Why would they lower themselves to the level of a wastrel like you, a junior who only knows how to bully others? I'm sorry. In my opinion, this matter was probably caused by you. "
"Yang Tie, do you know just how much trouble you've caused? Not only have our Yang family lost an elder because of you, but we've even offended an Overgod. Are Overgods people you can offend so easily? If you continue to act recklessly like this, you'll cause great trouble for the clan sooner or later. "
The person who dared to publicly criticize Yang Tie before the patriarch and all the elders of the Yang family was a great figure of great status in the Yang family. He was the elder brother of the current patriarch, Yang Lianxin. Back then, he had failed in the competition for the position of patriarch, resulting in the position of patriarch falling into his younger brother's hands.
Although he was the grand elder of the Yang family now, the structure of the Yang family was different from other clans and sects. As a result, his authority as the grand elder was nowhere near as great as the patriarch. He still desired the position of patriarch very much, so he naturally would not give up on any opportunity to strike back at his younger brother.
Immediately, a few other Gods agreed with what Yang Lianxin had said. They stood on the same side as Yang Lianxin.
The patriarch's face was ugly. He said gruffly, "Enough. Since it has already happened, there's no point in talking about this anymore. Even if Tie 'er really was in the wrong, the Overgod could have just punished him slightly, but he actually killed an elder of our Yang family. Hmph, how can an elder of our Yang family be killed so easily? If we don't seek justice now, how will our Yang family remain in the royal capital in the future? "
"Hmph, Yang Aoran, do you really want to overestimate yourself and seek revenge from an Overgod? It's not that I'm looking down on you, but you really don't have that ability right now. Listen to me, don't make trouble for the ancestor, "Yang Lianxin sneered coldly. However, he was secretly overjoyed. He saw hope for Yang Aoran's position as the patriarch now that Yang Tie had caused something like this.
This was because no matter what Yang Aoran did in the future, he would not be able to change the fact that he had made a mistake. If he continued to pursue the matter, he might end up offending an Overgod. Although the Yang family no longer feared most Overgods, they could not afford to offend even an early Overgod so easily.
Even if they did offend an Overgod, they would have to see whether it was worth it or not.
If they did not pursue the matter, the status of the Yang family would definitely plummet. Some people with ulterior motives might even make an issue out of this matter and cause even more negative news for the Yang family. As the patriarch of the Yang family, Yang Aoran was unable to shirk his responsibility.
The patriarch of the Yang family, Yang Aoran, naturally guessed what his brother, Yang Lianxin, was thinking. He stared at Yang Lianxin coldly and said emotionlessly, "Brother, do you know why you can't become the patriarch of the Yang family? It's because you don't understand the Ancestor's temperament at all. If you could fathom the Ancestor's thoughts, even if it was just a tiny bit, then the position of Patriarch would belong to none other than you. It would definitely not fall on my head. "
Yang Lianxin was shocked when he heard that. He thought, "Is Yang Aoran bold enough to pursue the matter because he understands the ancestor's thoughts? Is he certain that the ancestor will support him? "
