Ancient trees, weeds, and strange flowers could be seen everywhere. The roars of beasts could be heard, and from time to time, poisonous creatures would surge out. This was the terrifying part of the wilderness.
In the Transcendent World, large areas were considered wilderness. Spirit Demons and Vicious Beasts occupied these places.
The Yang Family group used three days to cross a small part of the wilderness. In two days, they encountered dozens of waves of spirit demons and Vicious Beasts. Fortunately, they managed to shake them off.
Only then did the Yang Family members understand what the trial of death was. They had to be alert at all times. The moment they relaxed, they could lose their lives.
Yang Wu and the others had already learned how to work as a team. Those who were not injured opened the path, while those who were injured stayed behind to recover. Once their injuries were more or less healed, they began to replace those in front to open the path. Not only did they improve their fighting strength, but they also formed true friendships.
They were originally a family, and were even related by blood. However, they usually cultivated separately and had very little time to communicate with each other, and even less time to share trials and tribulations together. This training undoubtedly created an environment for them, and strengthened their relationship.
The Yang Family was originally an extremely united family. These years of internal strife and external suppression caused their situation to deteriorate. The younger generation was even worse.
The ten people in front of them were the future pillars of the Yang Family. They were even the reserve forces of the Saints. If they could strengthen their friendship and unite as one, it would greatly benefit the Yang Family in the future.
Yang Wu did not think too far into the future. He only hoped that they could become stronger.
Only by becoming stronger could they have the power to protect themselves. Only by protecting their lives could they think of other things.
Yang Wu and the others had just slaughtered a wave of Vicious Beasts. They only took the beast cores and some key parts. They did not take anything else. Everything was to save time on the road.
At this time, Yang Zhenlong and the Silver Patterned Turtle asked Yang Wu to split up.
"Father, we want to find our own opportunities here. We won't go with you." Yang Zhenlong said to Yang Wu.
At this time, he had transformed into a handsome youth. He looked at Yang Wu with a shy expression, as if he was embarrassed to make such a request.
Yang Wu patted Yang Zhenlong's shoulder and said, "Son, are you sure you want to part ways with your father here?"
Yang Zhenlong nodded seriously and said, "Yes, I feel that we should be able to find something that belongs to us here. We want to challenge the Demon Race's Green Demon Ranking.
The Demon Race's Green Demon Ranking was the same as the human race's Dragon Phoenix ranking.............
"Little Silver, have you decided as well?" Yang Wu turned to look at the Silver-Patterned Turtle.
The Silver Patterned Tortoise didn't look good in his human form. He was a hunchbacked young man with scales on his face. He looked a little ugly and ferocious. He nodded and said, "I don't want to be a burden to my lord."
"Okay, continue with your decision. Here are some Demon Cores for you. You are still weak, so it won't be too late to find your own opportunities after you increase your cultivation level. It doesn't matter if you get the qualifications or not. The most important thing is to stay alive." Yang Wu said seriously to the two of them.
Then, Yang Wu gave a dragon whisker to Yang Zhenlong. This was originally a material he wanted to refine a Saint Weapon. Now, for Yang Zhenlong's safety, he gave it to him.
Yang Zhenlong already had many dragon items on him. Dragon marrow liquid, dragon bones, dragon scales, and dragon whiskers. Any one of them was enough to make many Spirit Demons jealous.
Yang Zhenlong was very touched. He swore that he would definitely transform into a True Dragon and live up to his father's expectations.
Yang Wu also gave the Silver Patterned Turtle a few high level Demon Cores. The Silver Patterned Turtle didn't refuse and accepted them all.
Just like that, they separated from Yang Wu.
Yang Wu looked at the two of them leaving and felt a little sad. He sighed softly. "These little guys are starting to grow up."
In fact, he was only in his early twenties, but he sighed with emotion that only sixty years old people could have.
Yang Manmi quietly came to his side. A ray of sunlight quietly shone on her through the gap, making her look as charming as a goddess. Her chest wasn't completely covered, revealing a small part of her snow-white skin. It was so dazzling that it could blind people.
When Yang Wu turned his face, he just happened to see that bottomless crack. He had an urge to sink in.
Yang Manmi leaned against him and said softly, "Young Clan Leader, do you really not like me?"
"Why do you ask?" Yang Wu "struggled" to look away and asked.
"That girl loves you a lot, but you still don't put her in your eyes. I don't know." Yang Manmi said softly.
Yang Manmi had always been confident in her appearance, otherwise she wouldn't have received the title of "Heartthrob". No matter if it was in the clan or outside, all the men who saw her went crazy for her. In the Yang Clan, there were a few people who were interested in her, but she never took them to heart. After she was determined to have the "Pulse Replenishing Body", her fate had already been arranged. She had to find someone in the clan to marry. She wasn't willing to find an ordinary man to marry. Only when Yang Wu appeared did her heart open. Only this kind of man was worthy of her.
However, now it was her own wishful thinking. Yang Wu didn't seem to have any interest in her.
Taking advantage of the break, she couldn't help but ask Yang Wu. She was afraid that she would follow in Tang Xiaohan's footsteps. When a man became ruthless, which woman wouldn't be afraid?
Yang Wu revealed a bitter smile and said, "Do you want to hear the story between me and her?"
"If you're willing to tell me, of course I'm willing to listen." Yang Manmi said with an expression that said she couldn't ask for anything more.
Thus, Yang Wu simply told the story between him and Tang Xiaohan. In reality, there wasn't much of a dramatic process between them. They just got along quite well. It wasn't until the shocking change in the Imperial Palace that both of their lives were completely changed.
"Actually, she's as beautiful as you. Anyone would be moved by her. However, I already have a wife and there are many women by my side. I don't want her to waste time by my side. Moreover, our Yang Clan and Mount Emei don't get along. This is a fact that everyone knows. It's impossible between me and her, so I might as well cut off her fantasies." Yang Wu confided.
Yang Manmi suddenly understood. She muttered to herself for a moment and said, "This seems to be too cruel to her. Aren't you afraid that her love will turn into hate?"
"What can I do? In the future, she and I probably won't meet again." Yang Wu spread out his hands and said.
Although the Yang Clan and Mount Emei were close neighbors, in reality, the bases of the two powers were very far apart. Even if one deliberately looked for someone, it might not be easy to find them. Yang Wu didn't think that he and Tang Xiaohan would have any interactions in the future.
However, Yang Manmi didn't think so. If a woman hated a man, she would become very scary.
"You … You really have a wife?" Yang Manmi asked in a small voice.
"Yes, I do. She's the Saint of Purple Cloud Palace." Yang Wu openly admitted. His face even revealed a happy expression. In the near future, he would definitely step into Purple Cloud Palace and openly marry Yu Yue again.
Yang Manmi felt a bit of pain in her heart. Yes, it was a bit painful. Fortunately, it was still within the range that she could bear.
"Since I was young, the clan elder told me that I must marry someone from the clan for the rest of my life. No matter who it is, I can't marry outside the clan. Therefore, in this life, I am destined to not be able to escape the shackles of the clan. I have already recognized the reality. There are many girls in the clan who have found their own happiness in the clan. I feel that I can also do it. In these few decades, I have seen many outstanding young people in the clan, like the clan elder, like Tian Lin, all of them are not bad. But looking at them, I can only see them as big brothers. Those who are younger than me, their talents are not as good as mine, and I have no interest in those little brats. Only when you have a strong rise did I realize that little brats can also be so charming. I feel that my destined son is you. I have the Body of Reconstructed Meridians, I will definitely be able to give birth to the strongest offspring for you. Even if you already have a wife, I don't mind being your concubine. Anyway, the clan elder told me to let go of everything to pursue you. Even if you say that I am a shameless woman, you must not give me a chance. Once there is a chance, I will give birth to a monkey for you." Yang Manmi stared at Yang Wu as she declared in a domineering manner. She had suppressed the words in her heart for a long time. She was incomparably happy.
After Yang Wu heard this, he was completely dumbfounded.
He felt that this world was too crazy.
How could a woman be so daring?
Could it be that she was really a saint? Could it be that she had no desires? Was she not afraid that he would punish her in this desolate land?
After a long while, he declared, "Let's continue on our way."
He felt that giving birth to a monkey was a huge matter. He was still a youth, so he would think about it in a few years.
Not long after, they encountered a Ghost Forest.
Ghost Trees were a common type of evil plant species. They liked to eat living creatures, and there were many dried up corpses hanging on their branches.
Their ranks were not very high, but a large Ghost Forest was enough to give people a headache. There were even some ghosts attached to the Ghost Trees, sending out soul attacks that were hard to defend against.
These ghosts were called "Charming Spirits". They were not corporeal, but rather a mass of souls. They constantly floated between heaven and earth, letting out "wuwu wuwu" sounds. They were similar to ghosts, but each of them had their own consciousness. When they cooperated with the Ghost Trees, they were extremely powerful. Even a saint would fall for it if they were not careful.
The Ghost Trees constantly sent out branches to attack Yang Wu's group. The Charming Spirits used their soul attacks to confuse Yang Wu's group, causing them to fall into an illusion or fall unconscious.
At the beginning, Yang Wu did not warn them, seeing how they would deal with it.
There were still a few people from the Yang Family who fell for the Charming Spirits' trap, and some were even captured by the Ghost Trees.
Fortunately, Yang Tianlin, the Qilin Son, was not ordinary. He cultivated the Azure Battle Qi, which was extremely compatible with the Wood Profound Qi. He was able to resist the Ghost Trees and the Charming Spirits' soul attacks. He used a stunning battle skill to kill ten Ghost Trees, as well as a few Charming Spirits, saving his companions from the Yang Family.
"To destroy the Ghost Trees, the key is to cut their roots!"
