Not A Cultivator 30 You Were Always My Role Model

However, that smile turned upside down when his daughter, Yang Xue Yi chatted with him.

"Cancel the engagement!?"

Yang Xue Yi slowly nodded, "Young Master Ao Xiu does not like me anymore. He also knew that the Yang Clan has some conflict with the Heavenly Wolf Temple. Hence, he wishes to cancel the engagement."

"He knew!" Yang Wen Jia frustratedly scratched his head rapidly. Initially, he wanted to keep the matter away until the marriage. But, he realized he had underestimated Feng Ao Xiu have his own way to collect information.

"Aaarggghhh... What should I do now!?" Yang Wen Jia could not help but shout. The glimmer of hope s.h.i.+ned on his path has gone away. What's left was the future where the Yang Clan would be erased from the face of Xiang Lan Nation.

Yang Xue Yi also felt the same, but this lie was a decision she has made. She couldn't go back down after gone this far. If what's left was to die, she already accepted it all. "Father, Let's just give up!"

"I... I'm sorry..." tear felled from Yang Wen Jia's eye. In the first place, these things happened was because of him.

Although the Xiang Lan Nation looked like it was at peace. The reality was they were at war. Xiang Lan Nation has joined the High Yin Country to fight against the alliance of Great You Empire. As the military Clan, the Yang Clan have partic.i.p.ated in many wars.

Two months ago, Yang Wen Jia and his three sons lead an army to fight against the army from Great You Empire. The battle was surprisingly not too hard. It was uncommon, but the Yang Clan Army has the advantage the entire time.

The Great You Empire Army retreated and has to leave the Plum Herb Plains behind. Seeing the enemy retreated, the Yang Clan entered to claim the land.

But when they entered Plum Herb Plains, they were shocked. Nothing alive was there. The entire gra.s.s has wilted, no spirit beast within its vicinity and the most frightful thing was all the nearby village was gone and burned down. There were burned bodies everywhere. These villagers seemed to have experienced so much pain that every one of them has a frightening expression left on their face even after death.

Based on the investigations of the soldiers, they were not just burned down. But also to endure much suffering as if they were seemed to be tortured beforehand. There also seemed to be so much mysterious Qi Aura in the air. Yang Wen Jia did not feel too good about having these land, however, this was an important place that could change the tide of the war.

No one knew why, the next day they were attacked by some members of one of the strongest sects from the Great You Empire, the Heavenly Wolf Temple. Normally, the Heavenly Wolf Temple would stay out of the war between countries. No one knew what's wrong with the sudden development.

The Yang Clan lost so badly that they have to retreat.

After some investigation, the reason behind their attack was surprising. It's because the Yang Clan has burned down the villages of these members hometown, including the Sect Leader, Ma Zhong the Ancient Earth Realm Expert.

Ma Zhong was so sad and furious that he vowed to bring the entire Heavenly Wolf Temple and destroy the Yang Clan in three months.

The Yang Clan tried to explain the situation, that this was a misunderstanding. However, no one would listen. And, whether it was true or not, the Yang Clan would still have to pay anyway.

Right now, those three months time limit were just 2 to 3 weeks away. Yang Wen Jia knew when Ma Zhong has done mourning and brought the full force of the Heavenly Wolf Temple, the result would not be good.

"Father, please don't cry... It's not your fault!" Yang Xue Yi consoled her father.

No matter how much the Yang Clan think about this, they could only conclude this as a conspiracy. It could not be a coincidence that these things just happen, that it would be the hometown of Ma Zhong or the fact that it was burned along with the Yang Clan's arrival.

"Hahaha... Good job!!"

The one laughing was the Clan Lord of Feng Clan, Feng Zhong Tian. He did not know how, but his son did well in cancelling the engagement.

"I know you can do it if you try!"

"Ah... Yes..." Outside of expectation, Feng Ao Xiu was not in a good mood.

Feng Zhong Tian noticed the expression on his son's face, but did not think too much about it and brushed it off. "Anyway, what are we gonna do about the pure coloured spirit stones?"

Feng Ao Xiu snapped, "Ohh... Hurry, we gotta find them!"

Although it was almost midnight, the match in two days was very important. Not only to punish the Li Clan, but they could also show the might of their clan so that in the future n.o.body would want to pick a fight against the Feng Clan. However, to achieve the result they could be satisfied with, more pure coloured stones were needed.

Feng Ao Xiu, Feng Zhong Tian, and the Qian brothers started searching for the stones without any sleep.

More than half a day has pa.s.sed. The night has turned to morning, and the sun has reached it's highest point. The four men showed their results.

Feng Ao Xiu saw the spirit stones on the table, he shooked his head, "There are only four coloured spirit stones! It's not enough! We at least need another ten more!"

Feng Ao Xiu and Feng Zhong Tian found two each. As expected, Qian Qian found nothing. It was doubtful whether the two men were searching for it earnestly.

Qian Lu smiles, "Sorry! I can't find anything!"

Qian Hui also smiles, "Haha... You know me! I could not see the colours!"

Feng Zhong Tian shook his head, "How could you two be so calm? It's the two of you that will be in danger"

Qian Hui replied, "We don't really care."

"What!?" The father-son duo did not expect that reply.

"I said we don't care!"

Qian Hui continued, "Don't get me wrong! We really have tried very hard on finding the pure coloured spirit stones. It's not our fault that we found so little. And, it's also not our fault that the match with Li Gao Yun is made."

"Our loyalty is still with you two, it's the truth! But, If tomorrow comes, and the Second Young Master asks us to fight in that losing match, it's the same as asking us to die! In that situation, we have no choice but to rebel. We will tell everyone the truth about the Second Young Master's cultivation level and the secret of pure coloured spirit stone!"

Feng Ao Xiu became really angry, "Yo... You... You..." But, he has no more word to say. Qian Hui was right, all of this happens because of him. He was the one who made the match, knowing that they will lose.

No one like to be ordered to death, even soldiers. Soldiers got a reason to die, at least when they die their family will be given compensation, they can protect their family. However, Qian Hui and Qian Lu got no reason.

Qian Hui scoffed, "Well then Second Young Master, We are too tired now! I hope you'll give us some Pure Qi before the match!"

Qian Hui turned and walked toward the exit, "Lu, Let's go!"

"Big Brother, Wait!" Qian Lu followed.

Feng Ao Xiu, "You... You..."

Feng Zhong Tian glanced at his son, "Well, I think he's got a point! They just recently become your personal bodyguard, they're not at the level where they would give their life to you at any moment. More time is needed to develop a good bodyguard. Look at me! My last bodyguard died years ago, and I haven't found a new one yet."

"Ye... Yes...", Feng Ao Xiu let out a sigh. That's right, at least Qian Hui tells the truth, a warning for betrayal was nothing. But, the actual betrayal really scary.

Feng Zhong Tian asks, "What about the pure coloured spirit stones? I think we reach a dead end."

Reaching a dead-end was not an overstatement. There are about one hundred thousand spirit stones in the Feng Clan Storage. They had checked about sixty thousand spirit stones over the past few days. With a ratio of one to ten thousand, finding seven was already considered lucky. If they searched more, at most five will be found. But they needed at least ten and searching the storage took too much time.

Feng Ao Xiu asks back, "Can't we ordered the entire clan to search?"

Feng Zhong Tian shook his head, "We can't, It's too risky and suspicious! You know how there is always a spy in every clan."

"How about searching in the black market?"

"Are you sure? We may find nothing at all."

"It's all or nothing!"

Suddenly, a servant knocked on the door from the other side of the door, "A guest is here to meet with the Second Young Master."

"If it's another Clan Lord and their daughter turn them down!"

The servant replied, "No, It's the First Young Master of the Xie Clan."

Xie Clan, it must be Xie Jing, probably he just wants to send some gifts for saving him. "Let him in!"

Xie Jing enters, as expected, he sends few gifts. There were some golds, some spirit stones, some low-levelled pills, some high-levelled pills, some...

[Wait! High-levelled pills. Why did he give some high-levelled pills?]

High-levelled pills were always considered a treasure for a middle-tier clan.

[Holy sh*t! There's also a high-levelled weapon! The axe glittered in gold and have a seal from a renowned blacksmith, Gan Xing. It must have cost millions!]

[And, That armour! It's definitely a high-levelled one. The black s.h.i.+ning armour made from obsidian, with a gold dragon inscription on it. Could this be that legendary armour!?]

[Did he just emptied the entire Xie Clan's treasury?]

"This is just too much!"

"That's right! We couldn't accept this many!"

"It's nothing much!", Xie Jing solemnly said. "Young Master Feng! You were always my role model. Ever since you saved me, I decided to make you my role model for the rest of my life!"

"But, that's not a reason to give this many! I can't accept this..."

Xie Jing kneels on the ground, then he kowtowed to Feng Ao Xiu, "Young Ma... No! Master Feng Ao Xiu! Please accept me as your disciple!"

Feng Ao Xiu, "..."
