Yang Xuan felt an unstoppable force coming at him, and his body involuntarily retreated.
"Teng, teng, teng, teng, teng!"
Yang Xuan only managed to stabilize himself after taking seven steps back. His blood was boiling, and he could not help but be shocked. How could a Stage Nine inner force attack him so fiercely?
What Yang Xuan did not know was that the shock he brought to Yang Hanwu was even greater.
The moment they exchanged blows, Yang Hanwu's body swayed, and he could not help but take a step back.
His face turned ugly, and he said in a low voice, "The peak of Stage Seven inner force!!!"
His voice was filled with disbelief.
Yang Hanwu was shocked. A few months ago, this person was still a piece of trash with no inner force. Today, he could face him head-on, and he only took a few steps back.
He was at Stage Nine Internal Force. Even if he only used fifty percent of his strength, it was still not a small matter. Yet, Yang Xuan was able to withstand it unscathed. Only someone at the peak of Stage Seven inner force could do this.
In an instant, Yang Hanwu's eyes lit up with eagerness as several thoughts ran through his mind.
"This kid must have had some kind of fortuitous encounter, or maybe he ate some kind of treasure to be able to reach the peak of Stage Seven in such a short period of time. Also, he must have some kind of treasure on him that can hide the presence of his Inner Force so that I can't detect it."
Yang Hanwu's eyes flashed with greed.
At this moment, Yang Xuan finally understood the level of his strength.
Stage Four inner force, in terms of strength alone, was equivalent to the peak of Stage Seven inner force.
He could not help but feel excited at the thought of this.
His yearning for strength had finally become a reality at this moment. From now on, he would no longer have to look at anyone's face, nor would he be afraid of anyone.
Yang Xuan stared at Yang Hanwu fiercely.
He did not have a good impression of this seventh grandpa of his.
Yang Hanwu had a grandson who was usually arrogant and domineering. He often bullied Yang Xuan, but Yang Hanwu turned a blind eye to it, and even deliberately allowed it.
He did not want such a grandpa.
Yang Hanwu said in a low voice, "Yang Xuan, hand over the treasure on you, and I can make the decision to restore your status as a direct descendant of the Yang family. From now on, you will be a superior person!"
Yang Xuan was stunned. Where did he get the treasure from?
Then, he realized that with such a huge change in his body, it would be strange if others did not suspect that he had some kind of treasure.
However, not to mention that he didn't have any treasures on him, even if he did, why would he give them to Yang Hanwu?
Seeing the undisguised greed in Yang Hanwu's eyes, Yang Xuan only sneered in his heart.
"And if I don't?"
Yang Hanwu's face turned cold. His eyes were filled with murderous intent, but he suppressed it and said, "Yang Xuan, as long as you hand over the treasure on you and tell me how you reached Stage Seven in such a short time, I will not only restore your status as a direct descendant of the Yang family, but also teach you a high-level martial arts technique!"
In this world, high grade martial techniques were extremely rare and hard to come by. If it were anyone else, they would definitely be overjoyed and nod their heads in agreement. But to Yang Xuan, the only cultivator in this world, it was as worthless as dirt.
Yang Xuan sneered, "Seventh Elder, I don't have any treasure on me, so don't waste your time."
Yang Hanwu was furious, "Yang Xuan, don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. I'll ask again, will you hand it over or not?"
Yang Xuan was resolute, "No!"
At this moment, although he was facing a Stage Nine Internal Force expert, he was not afraid.
Yang Hanwu finally flew into a rage. No longer caring about his dignity, he crossed his palms and suddenly grabbed at Yang Xuan.
With this grab, a strong wind blew in all directions, and the momentum was even greater than before. A huge wave of air rushed over, making it difficult for people to breathe.
But Yang Xuan was not afraid. He was ready to use the Golden Moon Slash.
At this moment of imminent peril, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Stop!"
Following this shout, a figure suddenly flashed between the two. With his back to Yang Xuan, he held Yang Hanwu's hands.
"Seventh Elder, what are you doing?"
Yang Hanwu took advantage of the momentum to jump back and stabilize himself. He looked up and saw a hale and hearty old man standing in front of him. It was the Third Elder, Yang Zhenxi. Yang Hanwu's heart sank.
Yang Zhenxi looked at the scene in the hall and turned his head to look at Yang Xuan. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. If he remembered correctly, Yang Xuan was born with a crippled body and could not cultivate. But now, how could he …?
He did not have time to think about it. He turned his head and said angrily to Yang Hanwu, "Seventh Elder, what are you doing?"
Yang Hanwu suddenly smiled, "Third Elder Brother, how come you have time to come today?"
Yang Zhenxi's voice was like thunder, "Don't play dumb with me. Tell me, what is going on?"
Yang Zhenxi was at the peak of Stage Nine Internal Force. His personality was explosive, and he could not tolerate sand in his eyes. He had worked hard for the family all his life. For the family's benefit, he would give up everything.
Yang Hanwu laughed, "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! Yang Xuan is successful in his cultivation. I just wanted to test my strength by exchanging blows with him! Yang Xuan, don't you think so? "He then looked at Yang Xuan with a warning look in his eyes.
Yang Xuan sneered in his heart, but his face was expressionless.
Although Yang Zhenxi looked rough, his eyes were sharp. How could he not know that Yang Hanwu was making excuses? But now was not the time to ask, because there was a bigger question in front of him.
He turned around and looked at Yang Xuan. His eyes were full of doubt, "You've cultivated Internal Force?"
Yang Xuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Yes!"
He did not hate the Third Elder, Yang Zhenxi, because he knew that this person was always fair and impartial. He had no intention of playing favoritism.
Yang Zhenxi suddenly reached out his hand to Yang Xuan. Yang Xuan did not dodge and let Yang Zhenxi feel his pulse.
Yang Zhenxi's internal force circulated in Yang Xuan's body, but he frowned, "You don't have any internal force in your body!"
At this time, Yang Hanwu interrupted, "Third Elder Brother, I also thought it was strange, so I tried to test Yang Xuan. I didn't expect Yang Xuan to have reached the seventh level of Internal Force. I was just about to try again, but you came!"
Yang Xuan glanced at Yang Hanwu with a faint smile on his face, which made Yang Hanwu angry.
Yang Zhenxi was surprised, "Seventh level of Internal Force? You've reached the seventh level of Internal Force, but why can't I feel any trace of it in your body? "
As he spoke, he released Yang Xuan's wrist, frowning as he asked, "Yang Xuan, why don't you tell me what happened?"
Yang Xuan said, "One night a few months ago, I was very upset, so I went to the back of the mountain alone! I sat by the lake and stared blankly! "
He organized his words and continued, "After a while, I heard a noise beside me. It turned out to be a wild rabbit, so I wanted to catch it and make it into meat soup. But who knew that the rabbit was so agile that I couldn't catch it. "
"I followed it all the way. I didn't know how far I ran, but after a few turns, the rabbit suddenly disappeared! I searched for a long time and finally found a big hole behind a big rock. The hole was only the size of two people and was covered by vines and wormwood. If I didn't look carefully, I wouldn't have found it.
Out of curiosity, I climbed down along the vines! "
"The hole was about four feet deep. When I reached the bottom, I didn't find the rabbit, but I found a stone platform. There was a stone bowl on the stone platform, and the bowl was half filled with water!"
Yang Zhenbei and Yang Hanwu's hearts skipped a beat. It seemed that the key was the water in the bowl.
Yang Xuan continued, "The water was very clear, colorless, and tasteless. I just thought it was rainwater. I was tired at the time, so I picked up the stone bowl and drank the water!"
"And then?" Yang Hanwu's breathing quickened as he asked.
"And then I went back to sleep!"
Yang Xuan glanced at him! Yang Zhenxi also frowned and asked, "And then?"
Yang Xuan said, "And then, I inexplicably cultivated inner force!"
Yang Xuan's words were 100% true, and 100% false.
He knew that the key to lying was to use the truth to form a lie. The first 90% of what he said was true. The hole also existed, and it was Yang Xuan who accidentally found it.
There was also a stone platform and a stone bowl in the hole, but there wasn't any water in the stone bowl. It was empty. Of course, the story of drinking it was also fabricated.
Yang Zhenxi and Yang Hanwu looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
A bowl of water would never turn a person who couldn't practice martial arts into a martial arts genius. To reach the seventh level of inner force in such a short time, there was only one possibility to achieve such a miraculous effect, and that was …
That bowl of water must be some kind of treasure!
Yang Hanwu glared at Yang Xuan. "Why didn't you report it? Why did you secretly swallow it? Do you know …"
Yang Zhenxi interrupted him and looked at Yang Xuan. He said in a low voice, "Do you still remember the location of the hole?"
Yang Xuan nodded. "I remember!"
Yang Zhenxi made a prompt decision. "Let's go!"
After saying that, he grabbed Yang Xuan and rushed out of the room.
