Chapter 47: Filial Piety

  After settling down, Wang Xuan Yang could no longer calm down, because he had arrived in Liusha City, where his predecessor's family and parents lived.

  The Wang family is a large family in the city of Liusha, and it's also a martial arts family. The family has produced many warriors, but in this world, the most revered way of cultivation is still the Symbol Dao. As for warriors, they can only be considered as a common way of cultivation. In the past, the previous generation was detected to have the talent of a symbol user and had high expectations placed upon them.

  "What's destined to come will eventually arrive, and can't be avoided."

  Wang Xuanyang took a deep breath and finally made up his mind. He informed Fat Brother of his decision.

  Fat Master heard that Wang Xuan Yang's home was in Liu Sha City, and he was very interested. He also wanted to follow him to take a look. After hesitating for a moment, Wang Xuan Yang agreed.

  As for Lin Zidan and others, they also wanted to go, but Fat Master considered that with more people, the target would be bigger. If they encountered the Knife Sword Symbol Sect again, they might have trouble. At the same time, he instructed Lin Zidan and Wang Xu to remain restrained, it's best to stay in the inn and not go out casually.

  Then, Wang Xuanyang and Fat Brother left the inn together.

  Wang Xuanyang and Fat Brother did not ride the Qilin Horse, that would be too eye-catching. They just walked on the main street, and could slowly watch the lively scenes on both sides of the street.

  This quicksand city is quite prosperous, especially with the recent changes in the Quicksand Sea, which has attracted many warriors and symbol users, making it even more prosperous.

  The shops on both sides of the street were crowded with people, especially wine houses, inns, restaurants, tea houses, and **, which were even more crowded, with warriors and swordsmen coming and going.

  Wang Xuanyang had been living in the Wu Xuan Sect since he crossed over, and had never seen such a prosperous scene before. This was also a vivid ancient scene, which existed only in movies and TV shows in his previous life, but now it appeared right in front of him.

  Perhaps it was a trick of memory, but he had a strange sense of returning home.

  After walking for a long time, a huge mansion suddenly appeared in front of him, occupying almost half the street. Apart from the main gate that was ten times larger than usual, there were eight side doors on either side. The grandeur and majesty of the mansion left Wang Xuan Yang with a deep impression, this was his first glimpse into the world of secular martial arts families.

  The Wang family is one of the top five families in Liu Sha City, and their mansion's exterior is a perfect reflection of this.

  Of course, Wang Xuanyang and Fat Brother are not from the same sect as Wen Yan. For this kind of worldly atmosphere, there is not much to reach the senses, only seeing the empty mountain peaks, the majestic sword buildings, can know what is called momentum, what is called style, what is called grandeur.

  From the memories of his predecessor, he knew that he was born into a branch of the Wang family, but because he had given birth to a child with the symbol of talent, the status of the family also rose rapidly and directly entered the main house, having the same status as the legitimate children.

  So Wang Xuanyang's parents had their own mansion in the main house.

  It can be seen that the Wang family attaches great importance to Wang Xuan Yang, a collateral child with the talent of a symbol master. This is also a common problem in this world. People with the talent of a symbol master are born more respected than ordinary people, and even a martial arts family is no exception. If they can give birth to a real symbol master, their status will definitely be greatly improved.

  This is also why the predecessor attaches great importance to becoming an outer door disciple. Once he fails to pass the name registration assessment, he will be expelled from the sect and his status in the family will plummet, and all honors will become a fleeting illusion.

  When Wang Xuanyang brought Fat Brother to the entrance of the Wang Mansion, they were stopped by several guards.

  The royal palace is a place of importance and naturally won't let people enter casually.

  However, there were also guards who were sharp-eyed and vaguely recognized Wang Xuan Yang's identity. Although Wang Xuan Yang had not returned to the Wang family for several years, he had grown a lot taller and his temperament had changed greatly. If one did not look carefully, it would be hard to recognize him.

  That guard had a special ability, which was that he could recognize anyone he had seen before, no matter how long ago it was. A few years ago, when Wang Xuan Yang was discovered to have the symbol of the heavenly gift, he made quite a stir, and almost everyone inside and outside the palace knew about it, so as soon as he took a closer look, he recognized Wang Xuan Yang.

  "Are you Young Master Xuan Yang?"

  The guard ventured slightly, his tone very respectful.

  "Do you know me?"

  Wang Xuanyang was somewhat surprised.

  "It's been several years since I met Master, so I remembered."

  The guard felt a surge of joy in his heart, realizing that he had not misjudged. Since Young Master Xuan Yang had suddenly returned, coupled with the changes in the Flowing Sand Sea, he suddenly had an idea - perhaps Young Master Xuan Yang had already become a formal symbol master.

  The symbol is even more noble than the warrior.

  To know that among the entire Wang clan, those who possess the mark are also countable on one's fingers, and they are all of the lowest grade. Even if they are low-grade marked ones, they are not something that ordinary warriors can contend with.

  His expression became even more reverent.

  "Oh, what's your name?"

  Wang Xuanyang casually asked.

  "Xuanyang young master, I'm called Zhong Yunxian."

  The guard was thrilled when Wang Xuan Yang asked his name.

  Maybe I can get on good terms with Wang Xuanyang and rise to prominence!

  "Li Hai, hurry up and inform the master of the house, just say that Young Master Xuan Yang is back."

  This guard, after instructing another guard to follow up, hastily followed behind Wang Xuanyang, step by step, as if he were the most important servant.

  Wang Xuanyang didn't mind either; people who were good at fawning and flattering were all too common in the Wang family.

  And Fat Master had his hands behind his back, smiling slyly.

  The Wang's mansion was extremely large, with many inner courtyards where the numerous direct descendants of the Wang family resided. The Wang Xuan Yang family also had their own courtyard, which was quite luxurious and grand. When Wang Xuan Yang arrived at a carved building with painted windows, revealing the rich and noble mansion, many hidden memories burst forth, sketching out the bits and pieces of his time here.

  Although his predecessor did not live here for a long time, this place has his happiest moments.

  At this time, the guard Zhong Yunxian had already rushed into the courtyard, shouting with joy, "Young Master Xuan Yang is back! Young Master Xuan Yang is back!"

  Look at his excitement, I thought he was also a servant of this mansion!

  "Welcome back, Young Master Xuan Yang!"

  Suddenly, the big house seemed to have exploded, and many maidservants, attendants, guards, craftsmen, etc. rushed out, excitedly kneeling down to greet Wang Xuanyang.

  The rules of etiquette in a large family are very strict, and the servants must kneel down to greet Master Wang Xuan Yang. He waved his hand to let them get up. At this moment, a figure rushed out stumbling, almost tripping over something at the entrance, but fortunately, one of the servants was quick-witted and helped him up.

  This is an old man in his fifties or sixties, wearing a blue robe, who looks well-preserved and quite wealthy. His face is full of surprise, "My son has returned, where is he, where is he?"

  Upon seeing the old man, Wang Xuan Yang immediately felt a sense of familiarity because he himself had seven parts in common with the middle-aged figure.

  Needless to say, this middle-aged figure was naturally the father of his predecessor, that is, his cheap father.

  As for why I'm only sixteen and have such an old father, it's naturally because Father had me late in life.

  In fact, Wang Xuanyang had seven sisters.

  He was the youngest, and his father, in order to carry on the family line, had him born when he was almost fifty years old.

  Seeing his father's cheap appearance, Wang Xuanyang didn't know why, but his nose suddenly felt a bit sour.

  It must be the memories of my predecessor haunting me!

  "My son has finally come back, great..."

  His father, Wang Zhongtian, tightly hugged Wang Xuan-yang, after all, it had been nearly five years since he last saw his son, and the excitement was palpable.

  "Father. And mother?"

  It's strange to say, but when he called out those two words, he didn't feel any discomfort and spoke very naturally. It seems that the memories of his previous life are haunting him again. Logically speaking, when Mother heard that he was back, she should have come out too?

  "Son, your mother has been thinking of you all these years and has fallen ill."

  Wang Zhongtian let out a sigh.

  Wang Xuanyang was suddenly shocked, in his memories of his predecessor, he knew how much his mother loved his predecessor.

  He was about to follow his cheap father into the house, when he suddenly remembered that Fat Shixiong was still there. He couldn't just leave Fat Shixiong behind, could he? Just then, Fat Shixiong's spiritual voice transmission suddenly came through, "Xuanyang Shidi, you'd better go see your mother quickly, I don't need you to take care of me."

  Wang Xuanyang nodded and followed his father into the house immediately.

  When Wang Xuanyang saw his cheap mother, he simply couldn't believe that this was still the mother in his memory.

  Emaciated, with sunken eyes and on the verge of fainting.

  It wasn't until he heard his father's words that he knew his mother had been thinking of him day and night, and with her poor health to begin with, the doctor had said she didn't have much time left. If it weren't for a strong sense of determination, she probably would have passed away long ago.

  Wang Xuanyang's eyes became moist, although he had only inherited this body, but the fact that his mother's blood flowed through his veins was undeniable.

  Since he inherited his predecessor's body and memory, it also means that he has inherited everything from his predecessor, including responsibilities and relationships.

  He suddenly felt a kind of regret, why didn't he come back earlier?

  He knew that if it weren't for this mission to the Sea of Flowing Sand, he wouldn't know when he would be able to return here again.

  "Father, is there really no way to save Mother?"

  Wang Xuanyang hastily asked.

  He didn't immediately wake up his mother. Given her current condition, she was completely relying on medication to sustain her life. If she were to suddenly see him, that obsession might just turn from a blessing into a curse, and that would be truly dangerous.

  "There is a way, however. Wei Dafu said that only the Huigui Yangsheng Dan refined by Master Fudan can save your mother's life. However, Wei Dafu also said that such medicine is extremely precious even to the Fu family."

  Wang Zhongtian sighed and suddenly seemed to think of something. He grabbed Wang Xuanyang's hand fiercely, "Son, have you become a symbol?"

  "Dad, I'm already a symbol."

  Wang Xuanyang nodded heavily.

  "Good, good, good, it's really too good, my son has finally become a symbol."

  Wang Zhongtian's face was filled with surprise and he hastily asked: "Then do you have a way to find the Hui Hun Yang Sheng Dan?"

  In his mind, since his son had become a symbol, he would have the opportunity to get the Rebirth and Nourishing Life Elixir.

  "Dad, don't worry, I'll definitely get the Rejuvenating Elixir of Life."

  Wang Xuanyang's mood was exceptionally heavy, he had a certain understanding of various elixirs, this Soul Revival Elixir was considered to be a relatively high-grade elixir, of course, that was secondary, the main thing was that the effect of this elixir was quite special, it had both soul-reviving and nourishing effects, which were reflected in both spiritual soul and physical vitality.

  Another important point is that the medicinal properties of this Soul Nourishing Spirit Pill are extremely mild, and even ordinary people can take it.

  Many elixirs are violently potent and extremely fierce, ordinary people can't take them at all, otherwise they will harm the soul and body.

  So, this makes the Rejuvenating Spirit Pill extremely precious.

  According to his understanding, a Huihun Yangshen Dan would cost at least 800,000 Spirit Coins.

  Of course, you can also exchange this elixir with sect contribution points, which requires 8,000 contribution points.

  However, these 8,000 contribution points are not a small amount. It's simply impossible for Wang Xuanyang to earn 8,000 contribution points in a short period of time.

  As for 800,000 spiritual coins, Wang Xuan Yang found it even harder to get.

  Even if they sold off the entire Wang family, it's estimated that they wouldn't be worth this much.

  If he goes to Forta to refine the base symbol and exchange for symbol coins, I don't know when it will be done.

  What's wrong?

  With mother's current condition, I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on for much longer?
