Yang Ba was left behind by Yang Wu.
Yang Ba and Yang Chaohui looked too similar. Even a fool could tell that the two of them were related by blood.
Yang Wu had no intention of helping Yang Ba become stronger for the time being. Leaving him in the Black Tortoise Army and letting him participate in all kinds of battles was Yang Ba's strongest path.
Before Yang Ba was taken away by Yang Wu, he knelt down on one knee and said, "My lord, take care. I will become the leader of the Black Tortoise Army one day and make them listen to your orders." Yang Ba was enraged by Yang Chaohui's words.
He had already realized that Yang Ba was most likely a child of his elder brother's bloodline. His elder brother had made a huge mistake more than 1,000 years ago and was sent to the City of Redemption. Later, news of his elder brother's death spread. In a fit of anger, he joined the Black Tortoise Army. Now, more than 1,000 years had passed, and he had become the general of the Black Tortoise Army. He deserved to be called the number one person. Even the patriarch had to show him some respect. He didn't return to the Yang family as he was afraid of bringing up the unhappy past.
Today, after seeing Yang Ba, he had decided to train Yang Ba to be his successor. Who would have thought that this kid already had a follower, and it was only a kid in the Heavenly Fish Realm, which made him very angry.
When he found out that Yang Wu had been selected as the young patriarch, he couldn't say anything else.
To be selected as the young patriarch, he had to be the most outstanding youth of the younger generation.
Being selected as the young patriarch at the Heavenly Fish Realm was too much of a joke.
Forget it. I will train this kid well in the future. He will definitely change his mind, Yang Chaohui thought to himself.
Yang Chaohui only took Yang Ba away and didn't bring anyone else. He was just testing the waters. If one wanted to join the Black Tortoise Army, there was a set of evaluation rules in the family. He didn't want to break them.
Yang Wu and the other youths successfully passed through the spatial gate and returned to the Yang family.
The Yang family knew that they would be returning today. Many people gathered to welcome them. Patriarch Yang Jinghai also personally came out to welcome them.
It had been 10,000 years. Finally, someone from this batch of prodigies had stepped onto the 12th level of the God of War Pagoda.
In the past 10,000 years, no one from the Yang Family had reached the 12th level of the God of War Pagoda. The best results were 800 years ago when Yang Baiqiang and Yang Taihe reached the 11th level.
Yang Baiqiang had died young, and Yang Taihe had been framed. This had destroyed the Yang family's hopes of reviving the family.
Now that Yang Wu had ascended to the twelfth level of the God of War Pagoda, it meant that not only had he gained ten years of cultivation time, but he also had boundless potential and had obtained the legacy of the Yang Family's ancestors. He would definitely be able to revive the Yang Family.
"Yang Wu is mighty!"
"Yang Wu is mighty!"
"The young patriarch is mighty!"
…
When the young people of the Yang Family saw Yang Wu, they couldn't help but shout wildly.
Their eyes were filled with passion. There was respect, reverence, and pride. Their Yang Family had been suppressed by the other Battle Tribes too much. The younger generation couldn't even lift their heads in front of them.
Yang Wu's domineering suppression finally allowed them to breathe a long sigh of relief. They were proud of Yang Wu and welcomed Yang Wu from the bottom of their hearts. They also tacitly approved of Yang Wu's position as the young patriarch.
As Yang Wu listened to the cheers, he felt a sense of resonance in his heart. He also felt a sense of closeness to this family.
Yang Jinghai ordered people to hold a celebratory banquet. The Yang Family was filled with joy. Many of the Yang Family's females expressed their admiration for Yang Wu.
The Yang Family had a large population and had gone through countless generations. After three generations, intermarriage was not prohibited. In fact, in order to maintain the purity of the bloodline, the Yang Family even encouraged marriage between members of the same family.
On this day, Yang Wu's name swept through the family. He became the most popular person in the Yang Family.
After the banquet, Yang Jinghai asked Yang Wu to stay behind for a private talk.
"From now on, you can be the young patriarch of the family with peace of mind." Yang Jinghai looked at Yang Wu with a gentle expression.
At that time, he almost missed out on Yang Wu. Fortunately, Yang Wu returned in the end.
"With my sinner's blood identity, do you think I can do it?" Yang Wu asked back.
"Hehe, if you can't do it, no one can." Yang Jinghai laughed.
"What if I don't want to?"
"Then I can't go into seclusion to break through to the Star Rune Realm."
"What does this have to do with me being the young patriarch? I don't think I have that much influence."
"Actually, I also know that you don't have a sense of belonging to this family. After all, you didn't grow up here. But that doesn't matter. I believe that as your bloodline power completely awakens and you receive the inheritance of your ancestors, you will eventually integrate into this family. The family has been in decline for many years and needs one or two leaders who can raise the family's morale. You are the best candidate. As long as you agree, you can take all the resources of the Yang Family," Yang Jinghai said very seriously.
Yang Wu was silent for a moment before saying, "It's not a big deal for me to be the young patriarch in name, but I will definitely not be the patriarch in the future. You should be the one. There are too many trivial matters, and I can't be bothered to deal with them."
"I'll take it that you agree." Yang Jinghai smiled with satisfaction. He then asked, "You performed outstandingly in the God of War Pagoda and won glory for the Yang Family. The family will reward you. Just tell me what you need."
"Prepare some herbs and demon cores for me. The higher the grade, the better," Yang Wu replied.
"You really intend to walk down the path of alchemy?"
"That's a must."
"Alright, I won't persuade you anymore. Go and see Great Grandmother and Little Ancestor."
…
Yang Wu bade farewell to Yang Jinghai and headed to Gong Silan's residence. This was a forbidden area, and others could not easily approach it. Yang Wu, on the other hand, had a smooth journey.
Yang Wu met Gong Silan and Yang Taihe once again.
Gong Silan was in good spirits and looked very young. No one could tell that she only had less than two months of life left.
After Gong Silan and Yang Taihe saw Yang Wu, they were not stingy with their praises. To be praised by such people, he could not hide the joy in his heart.
"You can stay here for now. Taihe will teach you for a period of time. I believe you will reach a higher level of enlightenment," Gong Silan said with a benevolent expression.
Yang Taihe's strength had recovered. He was more than enough to teach Yang Wu.
Yang Wu revealed a difficult expression and said, "Great Grandmother, Great Ancestor Taihe, I want to leave for a period of time."
"Is there something that you can't say? Say it and the family will solve it for you. "Gong Silan said.
Yang Wu shook his head and said, "I want to fulfill my promise to my master. I have already delayed for a long time, so I can't delay any longer. When I come back in the future, I will listen to Great Ancestor Taihe's teachings."
"Where did your master come from?" Yang Taihe asked curiously.
"Actually, I'm not too sure either. My master said that he came from the 'Celestial Palace', but according to my investigations, the Celestial Palace was destroyed tens of thousands of years ago. Perhaps my master is a descendant of the Celestial Palace." Yang Wu did not hide it. He said this because he wanted to hear if the old man had any impression of the Heavenly Palace. He always felt that his cheap master was not reliable.
When Yang Wu finished speaking, Gong Silan revealed an excited expression and asked, "You … What is your master's name?"
Yang Wu scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and said, "I don't know what his name is. He only told me to go to the ruins of the Heavenly Palace to find him."
"Quickly tell grandma about your master accepting you as a disciple and what he looks like." Gong Silan said anxiously.
Yang Wu hesitated for a moment, then told her about his master accepting him as a disciple.
Actually, he and his master had only met twice. He didn't even know what his master looked like, so there was nothing much to say.
After Gong Silan finished listening, she fell into deep thought. After a while, she came back to her senses and said, "Child, go. Since he claims to be from the Heavenly Palace and wants you to go to the ruins of the Heavenly Palace to find him, it shouldn't be wrong. When you see him again, be respectful and learn something from him. It will be good for you."
"Okay …" Grandmother, you should know about the situation of the Heavenly Palace, right? Was it destroyed long ago? "Yang Wu asked.
"The Heavenly Palace will never be destroyed!" Gong Silan excitedly emphasized.
Yang Taihe hurriedly supported her and said, "Mother, don't worry."
Gong Silan calmed down for a moment and said, "The Heavenly Palace will never be destroyed. It is only temporarily scattered. In the future, it will definitely reappear in its supreme light." Her old eyes emitted a sincere expression, and after a while, she said, "Grandmother will not tell you what happened to it for the time being. You will slowly understand in the future. Now, go to the ruins of the Heavenly Palace, and you may not be able to easily find your master there. If he really is someone from the Heavenly Palace, you will have to go through layers of tests before you have the qualifications to join the Heavenly Palace.
"Then can you tell me where its ruins are?" Yang Wu asked again.
"Let me tell you. The ruins of the Heavenly Palace are also known as the 'Heavenly Palace Ruins'. It is in the Sky Domain Mountain Range, and like the current Kunlun Mountain Range, it is one of the most ancient mountain ranges. There are all kinds of ancient races that live in that place. These races are extremely powerful and have inherited ancient secret techniques …" Yang Taihe roughly explained the situation of the Heavenly Palace.
Yang Wu knew about the Sky Domain Mountain Range. He had crammed in a lot of general knowledge about the Transcendent Realm. This was a place that was comparable to a forbidden area. It was the highest mountain range in the Transcendent Realm, and was also known as the mountain range closest to the sky. The Heavenly Palace was built there, and it was indeed higher than the sky.
"It will take you at least two months to reach the Sky Domain Mountain Range from our Yang Family. Time is tight." Yang Taihe analyzed.
"Then I have to be on my way," Yang Wu replied.
"Now is not the time to rush. I will tell you more about the local customs so that you can prepare. Also, your great grandmother has some things to tell you. The ruins of the Heavenly Palace are not something that anyone can find just because they want to …" Yang Taihe explained everything he knew to Yang Wu in detail.
In the end, Gong Silan emphasized to Yang Wu, "You must become a disciple of the Heavenly Palace."
No one knew better than her the importance of the Heavenly Palace's successor.
