Chapter 56: Gambler's Luck, Three Conditions
Xu Yang knew that those who could set foot in the Xuanzong realm were all people with unshakeable determination, and they would resolutely do what they thought was right without changing their minds easily.
Since Xu Changling was forced by the Mo family's pressure to make the decision to expel Xu Yang and his sister, he must have thought it was the right decision and wouldn't easily waver.
Xu Changling sighed: "For over a decade, Grandfather has been enduring the torment, feeling pained and remorseful. He often felt that he hadn't taken good care of you siblings, and owed it to Qingyuan. Recently, Li Zhongxuan disregarded the pressure from the Mo clan and lent a helping hand to you. Grandfather was even more ashamed... Now, there's finally an opportunity for you to acknowledge your heritage without triggering a backlash from the Mo clan. Grandfather has made up his mind to cast aside his concerns and gamble on this chance."
"What opportunity?" Not only Xu Yang, but all members of the Xu family perked up their ears. "What kind of opportunity would allow our Xu family to no longer fear the threat of the Mo family?"
"This opportunity is the selection of Haiyun Academy," said Xu Changling, "As a talent reserve base for Haiyun Upper Country, the influence of Haiyun Academy will even surpass that of the Mu family."
"Master of the house, are you thinking of letting Xuyang participate in the selection of Haiyun Academy, so as to make Moshen apprehensive?" The third ancestor of the Xushan family, Huoran, stood up suddenly. "No, absolutely not! Not to mention whether Xuyang can eventually become a formal disciple of Haiyun Academy, even if he is successfully selected, with the overwhelming power of the Moshi family, they will not take a mere disciple of Haiyun Academy seriously!"
"But if Yang Er rises to prominence in Haiyun Temple and receives attention and cultivation from the temple, then even the Mo family will think twice before making a move against my House of Xu and Yang Er."
"I admit that the master of the house has a point, but this hope is too slim! The Haiyun dynasty rules over 43 countries, with a territory of millions of miles and a population of hundreds of millions. To stand out among these hundreds of millions of people and receive the full support of the Haiyun Institute is no easy feat!" The three ancestors of the Xu family refused to budge an inch, "Master of the house, you are staking the lives of our entire clan on this, and it's highly likely that we will lose everything!"
"I believe Yang Er has this ability," said Xu Changling calmly. "Qing, tell everyone about the changes in Yang Er's recent days."
Xu Qingbai nodded and looked around the scene, seeing that everyone had a listening expression, opened his mouth and said:
"Three months ago, Xuyang suddenly joined the Qimen Taoist temple's ascetic team, and I was scolded by my father for not taking good care of him."
"Before January, Xu Yang finally returned to Lin Yuan City, and his strength was in the middle of Xuan Tu."
"In just ten days, Xu Yang broke through to the late stage of Xuantu and cultivated a body-refining technique, defeating two Xuan Masters from Huoyun Daochang in one move!"
Cries of surprise erupted as Xuan Wuji defeated two Xuan Masters at the same time? This is simply impossible!
Five days later, Xu Yang broke through again and reached the peak of Xuantu. He went to Song Renxuan's house in the south of the city, picked up his young daughter, and severely injured a Xuantu Daoist at the Qi Gate Daochang.
With the example of defeating two Xuan Masters above, the various young masters of the Xu family were not very surprised, but they all felt frustrated with Xu Yang's so monstrous promotion speed.
From the late stage of Xuan Tu to the peak, it only took five days? The fastest progress here also exceeded half a year!
Xu Qing continued: "After several more days, Xu Yang once again entered the Giant Python Mountains to condense his Xuan Wheel. I secretly followed and protected him, after all, when condensing the Xuan Wheel, one cannot tolerate even the slightest disturbance."
Everyone was attracted by Xu Qing's story and held their breath, waiting for the next part.
"At the time of Xu Yang's successful breakout, three Xuan Shi from Qi Men Dao Chang came to assassinate Xu Yang, but were all killed by Xu Yang without a single one escaping!"
"What? How is this possible!"
"Even Lian Xuanshi can't escape, it's too strong! The combat power is against the sky, and it can fight across levels!"
Gasps of amazement rose and fell, not one of the three Xuan Masters escaped, compared to the previous example of defeating two people, it was even more shocking, able to make an enemy at the Xuan Master level have nowhere to hide, this was already a battle strength at the Xuan Shi level.
Xu Yang looked at Xu Qingguang with some surprise, not expecting a Xuan Master to be secretly following him! This meant that his use of the Zhenxuan Tower to drain the life force from the three Xuan Masters' corpses had also not escaped Xu Qingguang's eyes.
What a trouble... Xǔ Yáng bowed his head and sighed, fortunately the witness was his own uncle, otherwise he might have been beaten to death by now.
Xu Changling smiled slightly: "Old Three, you also know that Yang Er's talent is not good, but his comprehension is extremely high. This kind of progress, can be called a genius level! I have reason to believe that Yang Er, even in Haiyun Academy, can make a name for himself and get the full support of Haiyun Academy!"
Xu Jiasan's ancestor said somewhat discontentedly: "What's the use of being a genius? On the path of cultivating the mystic, many geniuses have fallen."
Xu Changling knew that San Zu was stubborn, so he didn't bother with him anymore. He turned to Xu Yang and said: "Yang'er, Grandpa knows you have emotional barriers, but you must always believe that we are a family, blood is thicker than water. This connection by blood cannot be severed. Now, Grandpa has made up his mind to put aside worries and place his bet on you... Go home! The family is also facing difficulties now and needs a talented son like you to support it!"
Xu Yang felt a weight on his shoulders. Xu Changling was staking the fate of the entire family to allow him and Xu Yu to recognize their ancestors and return to their roots.
"Brother..." Xǔ Yú pulled on Xǔ Yáng's arm, her big black eyes were red and had some tear stains, the meaning was self-evident.
Xu Yang took a deep breath, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning.
"I am willing to return to the family, but I have three conditions."
"Presumptuous! Letting you return is already a great favor, yet you still dare to negotiate terms!" The three ancestors of the Xu family shouted in anger.
"Third Elder!" The two ancestors of the Xu family could not help but rebuke, "It is the Xu family that owes a debt to Xu Yang, and not Xu Yang who has wronged the Xu family! As Xu Yang's uncle, you must be careful with your words!"
The second ancestor of the Xu family had a smooth temperament, and when the eldest brother and the third brother were arguing, he always remained aloof and impartial, never taking sides. However, this time he also couldn't bear to see the third brother's exclusion of Xu Yang's nephew, and spoke out in argument.
"Third Elder, if you continue to make a racket, don't blame me for not showing mercy to someone of your junior generation. I'll suppress you on the spot." Xu Changling's mouth twitched as he wrapped this sentence in his Wind Extreme Mystic power and sent it into the ear of the Third Ancestor of the Xu Clan.
Xu Shi's three ancestors' pale faces turned white, no matter when, Xu Changling's Xuanzong peak strength was the greatest deterrent. Fortunately, Xu Changling considered his face and used the method of transmitting sound into secrecy.
"Alright, Yang'er, what are your conditions? Just say them out," Seeing that the three ancestors of the Xu family had finally sat down calmly, Xu Changling nodded his head and said to Xu Yang, "As long as you're willing to return to the family, no matter what conditions, Grandfather will agree to them."
