Chapter 270

Volume 1 Chapter 270 A Bunch of Fools Being Played by Qin Fei

In just half a year, the Xiao family in Yuanlong City completely fell apart.

Xiao Zhenshan and his family were once again kicked out of Yuanlong City.

They embarked on a long journey to Qingyun Mountain, hoping to seek refuge with Xiao Yang.

However, Xiao Yang didn’t want to see them at all and directly ordered them to be chased away.

At this moment, Xiao Zhenshan and the others were filled with regret.

They regretted raising the white-eyed wolf known as Qin Fei.

They regretted not treating Xiao Yang well.

If they had regarded Xiao Yang as their own from the beginning, wouldn’t the outcome for the Xiao family be different?

If they had treated Xiao Yang well since childhood, perhaps they wouldn’t have been expelled from Yuanlong City and left homeless.

Given Xiao Yang’s personality, if they truly treated him well, even if he knew he wasn’t their biological son, he would absolutely not sever ties with them.

Yet, it was all too late.

It was no use regretting now.

“Uncle Master, are they really my master’s parents?”

Zhao Fan looked bewildered.

Why would his master chase away his own parents?

Liu Qingyun shook his head, “Xiao Family Head, as far as I know, my junior brother Xiao Yang is not your biological son, and you have already cut all ties with him. How can you have the face to look for him?”

Though Xiao Zhenshan was lamenting about being driven out of Yuanlong City, a family of drifters without a home, Liu Qingyun felt no sympathy for the Xiao family.

Because he knew that their miserable fate was self-inflicted.

“This…”

Xiao Zhenshan was taken aback.

“So that’s how it is!”

Zhao Fan suddenly understood.

“By the way, Xiao Family Head, don’t you have a remarkable adopted son? That adopted son Qin Fei is the Sect Holy Son of the Qingyang Sword Sect and quite impressive!”

Liu Qingyun looked at Xiao Zhenshan with a half-smile.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhenshan instantly felt gloomy.

If I could find Qin Fei, would I need to come here?

“I heard that the Xiao Family Head treats his adopted son really well. As long as you bring out your adopted son, who would dare to touch your Xiao family?”

Liu Qingyun continued.

“Liu Sect Leader… This…”

Xiao Zhenshan wanted to say more.

But Liu Qingyun impatiently interrupted him, “Alright, I have matters to attend to, so I’ll be taking my leave!”

Liu Qingyun strode away toward the mountain entrance.

“Wait, Liu Sect Leader, you can’t just stand by and watch us die!”

Xiao Zhenshan was truly anxious.

His spiritual herbs had been deceived by Qin Fei, and now they’d been driven out of Yuanlong City— they had nothing left!

If even Xiao Yang wouldn’t help them, they would truly be finished.

Xiao Zhenshan wanted to chase after them but was stopped by Zhao Fan.

“Dad, what do we do now?”

Xiao Yue panicked.

“How would I know what to do?” Xiao Zhenshan mumbled.

Xiao Yang stood quietly behind a large rock at the mountain gate, watching the scene unfold.

He had already stated that he had severed ties with the Xiao family.

Those five top-notch spiritual herbs he had given away were his last act of kindness to the Xiao family.

He had been more than gracious.

Xiao Zhenshan and the others were directly chased away.

“Junior brother, do you still have feelings for them?”

Liu Qingyun noticed Xiao Yang behind the rock.

“Of course not!”

Xiao Yang replied nonchalantly, then turned and walked up the mountain.

“After all, they were once your parents. Isn’t it a bit tragic? You really won’t help them at all?”

Liu Qingyun chuckled.

“Get lost!”

Xiao Yang found it quite absurd.

Saying this, he stomped his right foot on the ground.

“Boom!”

The ground shook suddenly as Xiao Yang shot up into the sky, heading straight for the mountain peak.

“My junior brother’s physical body seems to have become quite powerful!”

Liu Qingyun marveled at the distant figure that had turned into a dot.

Xiao Yang hadn’t used any vital energy at all.

He simply leaped thousands of feet using the strength of his physical body. Such a physique was truly powerful, terrifyingly so!

Liu Qingyun glanced at the deeply embedded footprint in the ground, astonished.

The ground was made of hard rock!

“Crack!”

Cracks suddenly spread out around the footprint.

After chasing away Xiao Zhenshan and his family, Xiao Yang didn’t feel happy about their miserable fate.

He returned to the back mountain of the Qingyun Sect.

Not long after, Zhao Fan came back.

“You keep an eye on the Xiao family’s people.”

Xiao Yang pondered for a moment and instructed Zhao Fan.

“Yes, Master!”

Zhao Fan accepted the order and left.

After being chased away, Xiao Zhenshan and his family didn’t leave immediately but instead settled down near Qingyun Mountain.

Used to a life of luxury, Xiao Yue couldn’t endure these days.

But whether she could endure it or not, she had to.

Xiao Yang ignored them.

He focused on studying the Wujidan Canon.

He sent the Chaos Sword he had snatched from Qin Fei to Zhao Fan.

Zhao Fan was in dire need of a flying sword.

He was ecstatic.

He lent the Taiyin Dragon Pearl to Ling Xian’er.

In these six months, Ling Xian’er’s cultivation had progressed rapidly.

With just one Breaking Realm Dan, Ling Xian’er could make a significant breakthrough.

However, this Breaking Realm Dan was unlike other spiritual pills.

Xiao Yang questioned himself; with his current alchemy grandmaster level, he only had about a fifty percent chance to refine a Breaking Realm Dan.

For other alchemy grandmasters, a fifty percent success rate was actually quite high.

Some would risk it, even knowing there was only a twenty or thirty percent chance.

They’d bet on those slim chances.

But Xiao Yang didn’t want to do that.

He didn’t want to take risks.

After all, the spiritual herbs needed to refine a Breaking Realm Dan were hard to come by.

Xiao Yang couldn’t afford to make mistakes.

If he failed, it would be disastrous.

He aimed for at least a seventy or eighty percent success rate.

That’s why he hadn’t started refining yet.

If he was going to do it, he wanted it to be great.

He wanted to create at least a dozen, or even more, martial arts experts in the Divine Martial Realm.

He wanted the Qingyun Sect to become an existence that could compete with the other nine major sects in the Northern Region in the shortest time possible.

He wanted Jiang Qitian and those who looked down on him to see that even after leaving Qingyang Sword Sect, he, Xiao Yang, was still someone they would have to look up to.

On that day, while he was studying the Wujidan Canon, someone’s arrival brought him great joy.

The visitor was Lin Wangchuan.

He didn’t expect Lin Wangchuan to come back to see him.

“Big brother…”

As soon as Lin Wangchuan arrived, he gave Xiao Yang a big hug.

“Brother…”

Xiao Yang returned the embrace tightly.

“Chirp chirp chirp…”

Just then, a flash of white darted out, as a little monkey leaped from Lin Wangchuan’s beast pouch to rest on his shoulder.

“Little White?”

Seeing the little monkey, Xiao Yang couldn’t help but laugh.

This little guy had actually woken up from its slumber much earlier.

Xiao Yang noticed that the purple-eyed spirit monkey, Little White, was surrounded by strands of spiritual energy; he was absorbing the spiritual energy from the surroundings.

Little White could actually cultivate now?

And this little fellow was not simple; he had already become a Tier Three spirit beast.

“Brother, I heard you’ve been stationed at Qingyang Mountain. Is that true?”

Xiao Yang asked.

“Hmph, stationed at Qingyang Mountain? I would never associate with those hypocritical guys,” Lin Wangchuan said bitterly.

Xiao Yang understood Jiang Qitian’s temperament.

Lin Wangchuan had offended Jiang Qitian by stepping on the Sword Platform and pulling the Immortal Sword to help Xiao Yang.

How could Jiang Qitian let him off easily?

“It’s all my fault!”

Xiao Yang sighed.

“It’s fine; being at Qingyang Mountain is better. It’s much quieter, and I don’t have to engage in schemes with those people.”

Lin Wangchuan said unconcernedly.

He had a carefree disposition, really not liking to tussle with those sorts of people.

Truly, it was exhausting.

Xiao Yang could understand Lin Wangchuan very well.

Lin Wangchuan was simple-minded, truly not fit to deal with the cunning likes of Qin Fei.

Especially since Lin Wangchuan had offended Jiang Qitian.

He had already been isolated at Qingyang Sword Sect.

Even his master, Elder Gu Feng, was being targeted.

The mountain gate of Qingyang Sword Sect needed someone to guard it.

Thus, the responsibility fell on Elder Gu Feng.

Jiang Qitian ruthlessly retaliated against Lin Wangchuan and his group.

The dignified sect leader of Qingyang Sword Sect had such a limited mindset.

Xiao Yang really found it absurd.

In his last life, he was incredibly foolish, believing Jiang Qitian’s lies, thinking he would really hand him the position of sect leader.

In his previous life, he was horribly used by Jiang Qitian, a mere chess piece in his scheme.

Once he was no longer useful, Jiang Qitian simply discarded him.

Xiao Yang pondered for a moment and took out two bottles of Divine Martial Pills.

He asked Lin Wangchuan to take one bottle back for Song Qiang.

These pills would help martial artists in the Divine Martial Realm to increase their cultivation.

Though the Divine Martial Pills weren’t as outrageous as Breaking Realm Dan, they could significantly speed up the cultivation process.

“Brother, don’t worry, even if you can’t enter the Yuanwu Immortal Domain for cultivation, I can still help boost your cultivation in a short time.”

Xiao Yang said with a serious expression.

The Yuanwu Immortal Domain was the best cultivating holy land in the Northern Region. But so what? He, Xiao Yang, had plenty of pills.

In fact, using pills to enhance a martial artist’s cultivation speed was often faster than cultivating in a holy land.

“Big brother, this…”

Lin Wangchuan looked at the Divine Martial Pills in excitement.

He carefully stored the two bottles of Divine Martial Pills.

Through their casual chat, Xiao Yang learned about the recent circumstances of the Qingyang Sword Sect.

It turned out that Qin Fei had only stayed in the Reflection Cave for three months before Jiang Qitian released him.

Jiang Qitian directly assigned Qin Fei to manage sect affairs.

However, shortly after taking over, Qin Fei messed up a matter.

The Qingyang Sword Sect had long been acquiring various pills from the Heavenly Medical Sect and the Dan Ding Sect.

This had previously been Xiao Yang’s responsibility.

When Xiao Yang was at the Qingyang Sword Sect, he would personally go to the Heavenly Medical Sect and the Dan Ding Sect to negotiate procurement.

This time, however, Qin Fei’s negotiations fell through with both sects.

He even tried to haggle for the lowest prices when purchasing pills.

Lin Wangchuan said Qin Fei had really gone overboard.

While negotiating with the Heavenly Medical Sect and the Dan Ding Sect, he was arrogant and directly angered the people from both sects.

As a result, the procurement fell apart.

Yet, Jiang Qitian didn’t blame Qin Fei.

Other disciples were brown-nosing and trying to curry favor with Qin Fei.

Even his junior sister Jiang Ting encouraged him, saying it was normal for him to make mistakes after just taking over, as long as he paid attention in the future.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang couldn’t help but laugh.

A bunch of fools being played around by Qin Fei!
