Chapter 234

Chapter 234: My Identity Actually Relates to the Central Land’s Immortal Gate?

Xiao Yang knew that Yun Qianxue was a member of the royal family of the Yun clan from the Central Land.

But in this life, because of him, Yun Qianxue did not get injured in the Grand Competition and she did not return to the Central Land with Yun Feng and Yun Xiaoxiao.

In this life, he changed the lives of many people.

Yun Qianxue’s life was also altered because of him.

In this life, Yun Qianxue did not leave the Northern Region.

“Um… could you tell me about this jade pendant?”

Xiao Yang took out the jade pendant and said to Yun Feng and Yun Xiaoxiao.

Yun Feng stared at Xiao Yang for a while before saying, “You should keep this jade pendant hidden; don’t take it out. Otherwise, if some people see it, you will die!”

“What?”

Xiao Yang was shocked; did this jade pendant really have some secrets?

Otherwise, how could Yun Feng say such a thing?

“Hmph, you blew up your dantian and lost all your cultivation. Better find a place to hide your identity and live out this life!”

Yun Feng withdrew his gaze from Xiao Yang and continued.

“What secret does this jade pendant hold?”

Xiao Yang asked directly.

“You really don’t know what this is?”

Yun Xiaoxiao looked at Xiao Yang with confusion.

“Well, if I knew, would I need to ask you?”

Xiao Yang was utterly speechless.

“This jade pendant has the seal of the Immortal Gate inscribed on it.”

Yun Xiaoxiao said solemnly.

“Shut up!”

Yun Feng was startled and angrily chided Yun Xiaoxiao.

“I only know this much; don’t ask me more.”

Yun Xiaoxiao stuck out her tongue.

“The Immortal Gate…”

Xiao Yang’s expression turned extremely grave.

His identity was actually connected to the oldest and most ancient force in the entire Yuanwu Continent?

In his previous life, Xiao Yang roamed the Northern Region for a thousand years, yet he never knew his origin.

It was only when he accidentally overheard a conversation between Xiao Zhenshan and Chen Ruolan in this life that he found out he wasn’t their biological son.

In his previous life, when he cultivated to the Sacred Martial Realm, he learned about a profound ancient force in the Central Land called the Immortal Gate.

The Immortal Gate was also the most powerful force in the entire Yuanwu Immortal Domain.

You see, the Immortal Gate has very strict requirements for accepting disciples.

Only those who reach the Sacred Martial Realm are qualified to become disciples of the Immortal Gate.

It’s obvious just how formidable this force is.

When Xiao Yang reached the Sacred Martial Realm in his previous life, he also received an invitation from the Immortal Gate.

People from the Immortal Gate directly approached him, inviting him to join.

However, in his last life, before he could respond to their invitation, he ended up in a battle with Qin Fei, who pierced his heart with a sword, killing him instantly.

Xiao Yang never imagined his identity would be linked to the Immortal Gate.

How is that possible?

“Never inquire about the Immortal Gate, or you will die too!”

Yun Feng warned, pulling Yun Xiaoxiao away as they left the pavilion.

“Brother, let go of me; I don’t want to go back!”

Yun Xiaoxiao struggled.

But Yun Feng didn’t care; he transformed into a streak of divine light and shot into the sky, taking Hua Xiaoxiao with him.

“Wow…”

Xiao Yang held the jade pendant, a tempest of thoughts swirling in his heart.

“The Immortal Gate…”

Xiao Yang murmured. Who exactly is he? What is his connection to the Immortal Gate?

At this moment, Hua Mengli, Nie Ruhua, and Ling Xian’er approached.

“Senior Brother, I can’t stay out too long; I should go back.”

Yun Qianxue glanced at the three approaching girls.

“Uh-huh!”

Xiao Yang nodded.

Yun Qianxue exited the pavilion and transformed into a streak of sword light, shooting away in an instant.

“Hey, what’s wrong with you?”

Nie Ruhua noticed Xiao Yang’s odd demeanor and asked.

“Ah, nothing…”

Xiao Yang said, putting the jade pendant away.

How could he connect with the Immortal Gate?

Must he wait until he reaches the Sacred Martial Realm for someone from the Immortal Gate to come knocking?

But not everyone who reaches the Sacred Martial Realm would attract the Immortal Gate’s attention and receive an invitation.

“Are you really okay?”

Hua Mengli looked at Xiao Yang.

“Let’s go back!”

Xiao Yang said as he left the pavilion.

He returned to Wangxian City.

Instead of staying at an inn, he directly bought a house in the southern part of the city.

“Wait, are you really planning to live here undercover for the rest of your life?”

Hua Mengli asked.

They didn’t know that although Xiao Yang blew up his dantian, he had not lost all his cultivation; in fact, he had made substantial progress.

To them, Xiao Yang had become an ordinary person without strength.

In the courtyard, Xiao Yang lay on a rocking chair under a big tree, reading a book.

Hua Mengli was brewing tea nearby.

Nie Ruhua was fiddling with a barbecue grill.

Ling Xian’er was floating in mid-air, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

“What’s wrong with that?”

Xiao Yang replied nonchalantly.

A tranquil, mundane life like this isn’t so bad.

He distanced himself from conflicts, plots, and deceit; now, all he cared about was his origins.

However, he knew this couldn’t be rushed.

Xiao Yang settled down in Wangxian City’s south.

During this time, the Qingyang Sword Sect held a grand relocation ceremony, officially entering the Yuanwu Immortal Domain.

Soon after, Jiang Qitian announced a ceremony to confer the Sect Holy Son.

Qin Fei was more than eager to sit on the throne of the Qingyang Sword Sect’s Holy Son.

Recently, the Qingyang Sword Sect was experiencing one good fortune after another, with guests pouring in at Qingyang Mountain.

Jiang Qitian had reached the peak of his life.

And all of this was thanks to Xiao Yang.

Xiao Yang had helped him reach such heights.

As for Qin Fei, if it weren’t for Xiao Yang’s departure from the Qingyang Sword Sect, he might not have become the Sect Holy Son so quickly.

Jiang Ting was searching high and low for Xiao Yang.

It was only when Xiao Yang actually left that she realized that it wasn’t that he couldn’t let her go, but that she couldn’t bear to part with him.

Nonetheless, Hua Mengli, Nie Ruhua, and Ling Xian’er worked together to erase Xiao Yang’s traces in Wangxian City.

Many people had witnessed Xiao Yang leaving Wangxian City that day.

No one knew of Xiao Yang buying a house in the city’s southern area.

Jiang Ting couldn’t find Xiao Yang immediately.

Meanwhile, Qin Fei somehow discovered that Xiao Yang had severed ties with the Xiao Family, and that Xiao Yang wasn’t their biological son.

Thus, he began to distance himself from the Xiao Family.

Xiao Zhenshan had tried to visit Qin Fei multiple times, but Qin Fei avoided him each time.

Even during Qin Fei’s ceremony for his conferment as Holy Son, Xiao Zhenshan and his family weren’t invited.

Xiao Zhenshan’s family had attended the ceremony uninvited.

The people of the Qingyang Sword Sect were aware of the relationship between Xiao Zhenshan’s family and Qin Fei, so no one stopped them from participating in Qin Fei’s ceremony.

Xiao Zhenshan dared not express his anger or concerns.

Because now, their Xiao Family could only rely on Qin Fei.

Without Qin Fei’s support, how could the Xiao Family rise?

Xiao Zhenshan felt some regret.

He never imagined that Qin Fei only accepted Xiao Zhenshan as his father figure to deal with Xiao Yang.

Now that Xiao Yang wasn’t even Xiao Zhenshan’s biological son, it meant Xiao Zhenshan held no value anymore.

Why would Qin Fei still consider Xiao Zhenshan’s family?

Useless pawns are meant to be discarded.

That was Qin Fei.

However, not long after, an uninvited guest arrived, shattering Xiao Yang’s peaceful days in Wangxian City.

Liu Qingyun came.

“Hey, son-in-law, could you help me out here?”

That night, Liu Qingyun strolled into the pavilion carrying a jar of wine, placing it on the stone table before Xiao Yang and plopping down beside it.

“How can a useless person like me help you?”

Xiao Yang said with a quizzical smile.

“Hey, old man, what nonsense are you saying? How did he become your son-in-law?”

Nie Ruhua stepped out upon hearing the commotion.

Hua Mengli also pushed open the door to the guest room and came out.

Ling Xian’er remained unfazed as she continued cultivating beside them.

The chilling aura of her Taiyin Sacred Body radiated, making everyone feel a cold shiver.

“The Taiyin Sacred Body, indeed remarkable!”

Nie Ruhua and Hua Mengli looked at Ling Xian’er in shock.

Ling Xian’er had been working hard at her cultivation, and her progress had been alarming!

“Stop fooling around, old man! You really think you’re a useless person? What a joke.”

Liu Qingyun shot Xiao Yang a knowing look.

“What are you talking about?”

Xiao Yang grabbed the jar of wine, opened it, and the fragrance of the wine filled the pavilion.

“Just help me out; I’m totally alone right now, no one to rely on, no resources, and I don’t even have anyone to guard those resources. It’s a total disaster!”

Liu Qingyun lamented.

Their Qingyun Sect had made it into the top ten in this Grand Competition.

But it was tragic that only he and his disciple remained in their Qingyun Sect.

With such a large territory and so many cultivation resources, how could just the two of them keep it safe?

“Why not recruit more disciples?”

Xiao Yang said, pouring himself a full cup of wine.

The wine Liu Qingyun brought was extraordinary. It was a rich emerald color, with a pure aroma. Clearly, he had gone all out to ask for Xiao Yang’s help this time.

“Ah, it’s too late to recruit disciples now.”

Liu Qingyun sighed.

He never expected that his disciple Ling Xian’er would make it into the top ten in the Grand Competition.

So even now, he still felt that everything was surreal.

Thus, he was completely unprepared.

“So what now? You looking for me won’t help!”

Xiao Yang was really at a loss for words.

“As long as you join our Qingyun Sect, everything will be resolved.”

Liu Qingyun smiled.

“No, I didn’t even think of any way to help you. What use is my joining your Qingyun Sect?”

Xiao Yang truly couldn’t understand Liu Qingyun’s line of thought.

“All you have to do is help me reclaim the ancestral land of Qingyun Sect.”

Liu Qingyun said.

“The ancestral land of Qingyun Sect?”

Xiao Yang paused. That was a good place.

He knew that the ancestral land of the Qingyun Sect had been taken over, and the sect also had a secret realm.

Liu Qingyun had been unable to unlock this secret realm, which was why the Qingyun Sect had lost its inheritance and quickly declined.

Now, Liu Qingyun couldn’t even protect their ancestral land from being seized.

Xiao Yang thought of the Qingyun Sword in the Qingyun Secret Realm.

That was the key to unlocking the seal of the Demon Abyss.

Qin Fei, oh Qin Fei, you think you can unlock the seal of the Demon Abyss?

In your dreams!

This time, he must first obtain the Qingyun Sword. Let’s see how you plan to unlock the seal of the Demon Abyss.
