Chapter 74 – Past events

On the way down from the west mountain, he saw the Tuqiu Village s working one after another towards the Ling Tian s at the foot of the mountain. When the villagers saw Yang Junshan and Yang Junshan, they would stop and greet them.

“Fourth young master, ninth young master!”

A hale elderly man around sixty years old witoe on his shoulder walked towards the two of them, smiled and said: “Watching these two youngsters is very diligent, they slipped down from the west mountain this early in the morning, and my eldest grandson is still sleeping in bed, he really should learn from these two youngsters!”

“Grandpa Biao!”

The two brothers did not dare delay and immediately greeted the old man. Yang Junshan was even concerned and asked: “Grandfather Biao’s family has been living in Tuqiu Village for more than a month, are you used to staying here?”

“I’m used to it, why aren’t I used to it!”

The old man laughed: As a farmer, I only have one Ling Tian as my foundation, with sufficient spiritual valley as my food, I do not lack either of them, and life is looking forward to it. Although I left the Bluestone Town with the Third Young Master, my life is much more comfortable than the life I had in the Bluestone Town, what is there to be unsatisfied about!

The old man’s full name was Yang Zhenbiao, although he was not a direct descendant of the Bluestone Town Yang family, he was still an elder of the Yang family. Back then, he was the one who started his family following Yang Junshan’s grandfather Yang Lie, even though he did not have the cultivation of martial arts realm, he was an experienced cultivator at the peak of Mortal Realm, and had a lot of experience among the outer branches of the Yang family.

After Yang Junshan’s grandfather, Yang Lie, died due to Qi deviation due to forcefully breaking through the realms of life, the authority of the Yang Family Patriarch fell into the hands of Yang Lie’s stepwife, the Wang Family. This caused a portion of the Yang Family outer sect cultivators who were loyal to the Madame Yang to be extremely dissatisfied, Yang Zhenbiao was one of the more influential people in the family.

These people had originally hoped that Yang Lie’s eldest son, Yang Tianchen, would step out and take over the position of the Madame Yang’s Patriarch, bringing the Bluestone Town back into the direct line of descent of the Madame Yang.

However, Yang Tianchen was obsessed with becoming an inner disciple of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, and the Wang family’s father waealms of life elder of the Heaven-Shaken Sect. He was the biggest pillar of support for the Madame Yang, and at this time, it was too late for Yang Tianchen to please his stepmother, so why would he fight for power with her?

In the end, in order to cut off their relationship, Yang Tianchen renounced inheriting the position of the Madame Yang’s Patriarch. She was only doing so to retain her identity as an outer disciple of the Heaven-Shaken Sect as she held the false position of being a Bluestone Town’s guard, and the real power she held was also in the hands of Lady Wang.

Yang Tianchen’s actions naturally caused this batch of Yang family elders to be greatly disappointed. Aesult, they had no choice but to place their hopes on Yang Lie’s second son, Yang Tiangang, in hopes that he would stand up and take back the clan’s rights from the Wang clan.

At this time, in order to consolidate her position and calm down the rebellious emotions of the Madame Yang clansmen, she announced to the Madame Yang that she was currently only supervising the clan rights of the Madame Yang, and that once the Madame Yang’s direct line of descent had advanced to the fourth level of martial arts realm, she would return the authority. To this end, she had even recommended that the clan be the first to announce the candidates to inherit the clan, once again easing the mood of the Madame Yang clansmen.

At the same time, she had also pushed over Yang Lie’s brother, who was also second grandfather Yang Junshan’s son, Yang Tianlei, and recommended him to be the successor of the next patriarch of the Madame Yang. He fought face to face with Yang Tiangang and caused Yang Junshan’s second grandfather to have no choice but to stand by her side.

Yang Tianlei was the eldest son of Yang Xi, and was ranked second in the second generation direct descendants of the Madame Yang. Although Yang Tiangang was the second son of the eldest wife, he was still ranked third in the second generation direct descendants of the Madame Yang.

With the support of the Adept Realm Cultivator’s first generation and the support of the second generation of Madame Yang’s second generation, as well as the fact that the second generation’s eldest son had given up voluntarily and that the Wang Family was also an extremely capable woman, if these factors were to be combined, and only obtained the support of the people of the lower levels of Madame Yang, who was left as an opponent for the seemingly immature Yang Tiangang, it was naturally to be defeated in an extremely humiliating manner.

Under his rage, Yang Tiangang chose to leave the branch family and came to the remote Mengyu County to become a village’s Village Head, establishing his foundation once again.

These few years, the lives of the Yang Family members did not go as planned, and it wasn’t as if Yang Tiangang had not helped them out after establishing their foundation in the Tuqiu Village. In the end, he was alone in the Tuqiu Village and he had thought of recruiting some people here, but he always felt that doing so would be a complete betrayal of the Yang family.

This time, Yang Tiangang brought Yang Junping back to the Bluestone Town to undergo the aptitude test, and he tried to contact some of the people who were thicker than him back then, trying to persuade them to follow him to the Wasteland Town.

These two years were not easy for the Bluestone Town, because he had spent a large amount of cultivation resources for the Heaven-Shaken Sect. In addition to the plague of locusts, many of the outer branches of the Madame Yang were in a predicament of cultivation and life for their people. However, these outer branches of the Madame Yang could not ignore this, hence many of the outer branches of the clan gradually became burdens in the eyes of the Yang family.

And at this time, Yang Tiangang wanted to bring a few people away, this had undoubtedly lightened the burden on the Madame Yang, so naturally the Madame Yang would not want them to; And these outer sect members were originally close to Yang Tiangang, so after seeing that the Wasteland Town not only had a good amount of Ling Tian s to cultivate, but also had a relatively plentiful supply of spiritual valley s, including Yang Tienu and Yang Qingniu, they were greatly moved by the beautiful scene in the middle of the Tuqiu Village. Furthermore, Yang Tiangang himself was able to gather a group of trusted people by his side, allowing himself to gradually cultivatower that matched his prestige in the Tuqiu Village.

Therefore, when Yang Tiangang brought Yang Junping back from the Bluestone Town, there were another five families with Yang Zhenbiao as their leader, migrating over here.

There werotal of 33 clan members in the five Madame Yang s. Among them, 8 of them had Immortal Foundation cultivation bases, and 6 of them were youths with cultivation aptitudes or who had already started cultivating. Regardless of whether it was right now or in the future, they were all people who could help.

Yang Tiangang was not stingy either, he divided the Ling Tian s that had matured last year into his own group and divided them into parts for each family member. He even helped a portion of the spiritual valley s, allowing the five families to quickly settle down.

If one were to talk about the Tuqiu Village, or even the entire Wasteland Town, and whose family had more spiritual valley s, it would definitely be Yang Tiangang’s family. Not to mention that his family’s three acres of low-grade spirit days were considered to be a bountiful harvest in the past two years, just the fact that Yang Tiangang had brought back one hundred and fifty stone spiritual valley s who had buried Yang Junshan under three piles of sealed spirit carriages in the dark path of the Tuo Wu Shan was enough to ensure that Yang Junshan’s family would not have to worry for a few years.

It had to be known that because of the continuous large scale reduction in the production of Yuxian s for two years, the entire Yuxian was currently in an extremely short supply. This had also caused the price of the spiritual valley s to skyrocket, to the point where it was almost impossible to buy them even witigh price.

It was also because Yang Tiangang had the spiritual valley and Jade Coins as his foundation, that was why he dared to plant Spirit Grasses on all three middle tier Ling Tian. Although Spirit Grasses were more valuable, but with the same low cost and long cycle of production, people without a certain level of strength would not be able to manage it.

After bidding farewell to Yang Zhenbiao, the two brothers had already reached the upstream of Qinshui. From afar, they saw Su Baozhang working in a small area among the Ling Tian.

Looking at Su Baozhang’s sweating appearance, it was obvious that he had been working in the Ling Tian for a long time already, Yang Junshan shouted from afar, “Brother Bao Zhang, it’s really early!”

Su Baozhang wiped off his perspiration, when he saw the two brothers, he walked over, and laughed: “We call this flying stupid bird, we finally goiece of Ling Tian, and I do not know how to cultivate, if we do not study hard, wouldn’t it be shameful to only take thirty to fifty percent of it this year?”

Normally, Spiritual Farmers referred to cultivators who had cultivations above Immortal Foundation, and normally, only cultivators who had cultivations above Immortal Foundation would have the qualifications to obtain Ling Tian s.

But because the Ling Tian was originally in a shortage, they had no choice but to distribute the Ling Tian among the higher levelled people, in hopes of obtaining higher production of the spiritual valley.

Furthermore, he had been practicing the Mang Ox Fist for the past two years, which had caused his fleshly body’s strength to increase greatly. Although the cultivation of the Ling Tian was somewhat strenuous, it was more than enough for him to cultivate it, and after repelling the Earth Stone Village that had come to fight for his territory last year, Yang Tiangang had decided to give three points to the Ling Tian that was upstream of the Qinshui under his name.

Speaking of the competition between the two villages last year, other than Qian Chunlai who had his butt pierced by Yang Junshan twice, other than Qian Chunlai who laughed merrily, the most depressed people should be from top to bottom of the Earth Stone Village.

Originally, the two village fields were bounded by a small stream of the Qinshui’s side. That day, under Qian Chunlai’s instigation, the people of the Earth Stone Village wanted to take the opportunity when Yang Tiangang wasn’t in the village to push the boundary across the Qinshui’s side stream towards the Tuqiu Village.

Unexpectedly, Yang Tiangang used his third stage of martial arts realm to transform into baleful qi and flew out at the very last moment. Not only did he defeat Qian Chunlai in one strike, he also scared Stone Village into retreat. Fortunately, Yang Tiangang did not show any signs of weakness in the end, allowing them to agree to follow the mountain stream as their boundary once again.

However, when the torrential rain finally stopped, the torrential waters gradually retreated, and the original tributary of the mountain stream changed its course. Furthermore, with this change, it took a long turn in the direction of the Earth Stone Village, covering a large area of land that was originally located in the Earth Stone Village to the southwest side of the river bank.

The entire Tuqiu Village was naturally not courteous, and this time, Yang Tiangang also did not stay polite, he immediately led the village’s Spiritual Farmers to divide the three acres of Ling Tian, but the people from the Stone Village who were rushing over did not dare to say anything, and when they thought about Qian Chunlai’s current miserable state, who would dare to challenge Yang Cunzheng!

During the battle that day, Yang Tiangang and his son had a tacit understanding. Not only did Yang Junshan hit his butt once again, he even broke the joints of’s thighs with his rune arrow aesult of the formidable bow force.
