As night fell, the scent of early summer could be faintly smelled. Many people took advantage of the bright moonlight to walk out of the courtyard under the trees.
Yang Wu and his group had already returned to the Yang Mansion. The Death Legion had occupied every corner of the courtyard. Fortunately, Yang Wu's grandfather was once a marquis. The courtyard of the Yang Mansion was not small and could accommodate the Death Legion.
These people were used to using the sky as their blanket and the ground as their bed. They did not accept Yang Wu's arrangement to stay in the Drunken Immortal Tavern. Instead, they returned with him and waited for Yang Wu's orders.
Yang Wu was touched by their loyalty and would think of a way to settle them down as soon as possible. Yang Wu did not plan to return to the border, so the Death Legion would naturally follow him. He had to make them become Yang family generals.
After everyone had settled down, Yang Wu talked to his parents alone.
"Wu 'er, you disobeyed the imperial edict. The Emperor will not let us go. Where did you get the courage to go against the imperial court?" Yang Zhennan asked.
"I knew Father would be worried about this. Have a cup of tea with Mother first. Listen to me talk about my experiences in the past year." Yang Wu held his father's shoulders and let him sit down. Then he recounted his experiences in the past year.
Yang Wu did not talk about all his experiences. He only talked about the important points. He directly ignored the setbacks and difficulties he encountered.
Little Hei's identity was replaced by his mysterious master. Otherwise, he was afraid that it would scare the two elders.
Yang Zhennan and Su Roumei were both experienced people. Even if Yang Wu did not talk about the hardships, they could imagine how much hardship Yang Wu had suffered in the past year from Yang Wu's words.
Su Roumei's tears fell like rain. Yang Zhennan's eyes also became a little moist. He held back his tears and only clenched his fists. His nails dug into his flesh and blood seeped out.
What kind of hardships did his son go through during his transition from the Mountain Prison to the army that allowed him to rise and become a king within a year?
Even if their son had a fortuitous encounter and received guidance from a famous teacher, he still had to rely on himself to survive in the Mountain Prison. There were countless villains there, and all of them were stained with blood. Their son's strength had been crippled, and it was already difficult for him to survive. How could he possibly defeat the prison slaves and fight for the Crimson Steel Ores?
In the army, even if they possessed a certain level of martial strength, the barbarians were ferocious and could fight against five people at once. So, how did their son manage to kill so many barbarians to atone for his sins? Not to mention, how did he manage to become a general? He must have suffered a lot behind the scenes.
"Wu 'er, Father and Mother are useless." Su Roumei sobbed.
Their son was so young, yet he had already suffered such a great crime. As parents, they were unable to protect him, so their hearts were naturally filled with grief.
In the hearts of parents, no matter how big a crime their child committed, they would not blame their child. Only when parents were unable to do something for their child would they feel that they were so useless.
This kind of feeling, if one was not a parent, they would not be able to understand.
Yang Wu held his mother's shoulder and said, "Mother, don't be like this. Aren't I fine? Only by enduring the most bitter of hardships can one rise above others. Isn't this what little brother always reads in the books? "
"That's right. If a jade is not cut, it will not become useful. If it were not for this ordeal, Wu 'er would not have been able to achieve what he has today. It is all thanks to the blessings of the Yang ancestors." Yang Zhennan said emotionally. After a pause, he said, "Wu 'er, even though you already have the help of a mysterious teacher and have become the Medicine King, which may make the imperial court fear you, it does not mean that the imperial court will always indulge you. I think you should think of a way to ease your relationship with the imperial court. Even if you do not think for yourself, you should think of your little brother."
"Yes, yes. Wu 'er, you have to think of Wen' er. He is the top scholar in the liberal arts. In the future, he may even return to the imperial court as an official." Su Roumei echoed from the side.
"Father, mother, you can rest assured. If I were to fall out with the imperial court, I would directly rebel. Why would I play these little tricks with them? I just want those who framed me to attack our Yang family. Everyone knows that I, Yang Wu, am not so easily bullied. Let them feel fear first." Yang Wu explained. After a pause, he said, "Father, what is the situation with your body? Right now, I can help you solve your body's old illness and let you return to the Earth Sea Realm."
Yang Zhennan said excitedly, "Really?"
He used to be the king of the Earth Sea Realm. It was only because something happened that he was harmed, causing his realm to fall. Moreover, it was getting more and more serious. His strength had already regressed to the strength of an ordinary general.
"You don't trust your son that much?" Yang Wu said as he spread out his hands.
"Haha, of course I trust you. I was poisoned by the 'Corroding Mysterious Palm'. There is a strange force that is destroying my strength and vitality. Your father used to be at the middle level of the Earth Sea Realm, but now he only has the strength of a junior general. I'm afraid that in a few days, I won't even be at the general level." Yang Zhennan laughed and told his father about his situation.
"If it's that serious, why didn't you say so earlier?" Su Roumei said as she looked at her husband worriedly.
"What's the point of me telling you? This Corroding Mysterious Palm should be the famous palm technique of the 'Poisonous Toad' on the Black Hand List. Maybe it wasn't him who did it, but it definitely has something to do with him." Yang Zhennan judged.
"The Poisonous Toad on the Black Hand List has already been killed by me." Yang Wu said with a sharp glint in his eyes. He then said, "I forgot to do something. Tomorrow, I'll have someone hang the heads of those fellows on the Black Hand List outside our house. Let's see who else dares to be arrogant in front of us."
"The people on the Black Hand List made a move against you?" Yang Zhennan asked with a trace of worry in his eyes.
Yang Wu then gave a simple account of the battle that happened before they entered the city. This left Yang Zhennan and Su Roumei dumbstruck. They didn't think that their son had already grown to this level. There was indeed no need for them to worry about him.
Yang Wu grabbed his father's hand and began to examine the situation inside his father's body. He sensed that his father's strength was already extremely weak. Moreover, a lot of his vitality had been corroded. Everything was because of his father's body and willpower. If it was anyone else, they would have died long ago.
Yang Wu pondered for a moment before saying, "Father, I'll go refine pills right now."
"Is it very serious?" Yang Zhennan asked.
"It's fine. Everything is under control." Yang Wu replied.
Then, he separated from his parents and returned to his room.
His room was a new bed that had been added at the last minute. Everything that belonged to him had been cleared out long ago. There was nothing left.
Yang Wu quietly thought about how to deal with the poison in his father's body. According to his investigation, his father's strength was about to be completely depleted. There was still the corrosive energy that needed to be expelled. In the alchemy manual that Little Hei had passed on to him, there were many ways to deal with the poison. However, the best way to deal with it was to not only get rid of the corrosive energy in his father's body, but also to restore his father's strength to its peak. This was not an easy task.
After thinking for a while, Yang Wu decided to first detoxify his father's corrosive energy. This required a "Detoxification Pill". The Detoxification Pill was different from ordinary Detoxification Pills. This was a kind of King Level Detoxification Pill that could dissolve more advanced toxins.
After detoxifying his father's poison, he planned to refine a "Qi Reversal Pill". This was a kind of Heaven Level Pill. Not only could it help his father regain his vitality, but it could also help him restore his strength to its peak. It could even improve his physique and help him break through to the Heavenly Fish Realm in the future.
The Qi Reversal Pill was a kind of pill in the Advanced Alchemy Manual. The main medicinal ingredients required were in the Heaven Level category, which was not easy to find.
At present, Yang Wu also had several Heaven Level medicinal ingredients on him. Only one or two of them could be used. He still lacked one or two main ingredients, which would have to be found elsewhere.
Yang Wu first quickly began to refine the "Detoxification Pill". He condensed six pills in one furnace. The rate of condensation was already very frightening.
He couldn't wait to send it to his father. His father's corrosive energy could not be delayed any longer.
Yang Zhennan did not expect his son to refine the pill for him so quickly. He was not in the mood to sleep anymore. He first took the pill to see how it worked.
Yang Zhennan took the Detoxification Pill on the spot and sat down cross-legged. He mobilized his aura and divided the medicinal efficacy.
Su Roumei watched nervously from the side, hoping that her husband would be fine.
Yang Wu held his mother's hand and whispered, "Mother, don't worry. Father will definitely get better."
Su Roumei nodded and leaned against her son as they waited.
After a long while, Yang Zhennan finally reacted. His face revealed a pained expression as he spat out a mouthful of black blood. His body fell to the ground on the spot.
This scared Su Roumei so much that her beautiful face turned pale. Yang Wu rushed over and helped his father up. He probed his father's body with his power and found that most of the poison had been eliminated. However, there was still a stubborn corrosive poison that was corroding his father's life force at an accelerated rate.
"This corrosive poison is so vicious!" Yang Wu sighed softly. Without thinking, he said to his father, "Father, my power has seeped into your body. Don't resist. Let me help you clean up this corrosive poison in one go."
In the next moment, he channeled the power of the Heart Fire into his father's body.
This was the power of the Supreme Yang. It turned into a power that seeped into every part of his father's body and began to burn the remaining corrosive poison.
After the corrosive poison felt the Supreme Yang Power, it seemed to be frightened and fled in all directions. The power of the Detoxification Pill continued to work together with the power of the Heart Fire to clean up the corrosive poison.
This corrosive poison was terrifying. After it floated out of Yang Zhennan's body, it actually seeped in the direction of Yang Wu.
"Ah! Wu 'er, be careful, "Su Roumei couldn't help but cry out when she saw the black mass rushing towards her son from the side.
Just as the corrosive poison was about to touch Yang Wu's body, a blue flame floated up. The corrosive poison met its nemesis and was quickly burned clean. It couldn't get close to Yang Wu's body at all.
"Phew, Father's corrosive poison is all gone." Yang Wu said with a light sigh.
