Nonetheless, the people from the Teng family did not know that the person who caused the drastic change in their clan was leisurely walking toward the Wu residence.

The crisis in the Forest of Death was not fatal to Ou Yangming but n.o.body would want to live in that dark and gloomy place. Therefore, when he left the forest with his head held high, his mood was bright and cheerful like the sun.

After returning to the city where the Humans gathered, his eyes were filled with joy as he looked at the people coming and going.

When he looked into the distance, the streets crisscrossed like a huge net that spread out in all directions.

The streets were wide, crowds were moving, and the breezes were alluring. Under the sunlight, the city was filled with vitality and an indescribable charm.

On the streets, Ou Yangming pondered for a while and thought, ‘Now that I killing 2 top-grade Spiritualists from the Teng family and gave the Xue family such a big gift, it won’t be too much for me to ask to see the Self-examination Mirror, right?’

The Xue family had almost been exterminated because of this treasure that was brought out from the Big Ruins, hence Ou Yangming had to consider the matter carefully. After all, he also gained a good impression of the Xue family after the time that they spent together, so he did not want to ruin the relations.h.i.+p between them because of this.

Of course, given Ou Yangming’s cultivation base, although the Self-examination Mirror would be very useful to him, it was definitely not necessary. The reason he wanted to take a look was the item was obtained from the Big Ruins, thus he was extremely curious.

Before long, Ou Yangming arrived in front of the Wu family’s residence.

A grey-clothed disciple of an aristocratic family waved his sleeves and walked up with a flattering look on his face. He smiled and asked, “Big Brother Yu is back?”

Ou Yangming cursed internally, ‘Isn’t this obvious?’ Even so, he still replied with a smile.

This disciple in grey was excited and almost jumped 10 meters high. He sighed and thought, ‘If I tell others that I’ve spoken to Yu Tianrui, who suppressed the clans with Venerable Ones on his own during the Hunting Meet, they’ll die of envy!’ The disciple took a deep breath and felt that he had the right to brag. He straightened his back a little and squinted his eyes, then he raised his eyebrows as if he wanted the young fellow to say a few more words.

Ou Yangming had a strange look on his face. He nodded with a smile and walked inside.

He came to Wu Xiaohuang’s study and knocked on the door. “Seniors, are you there?” He understood the habits of the 2 top-grade Spiritualists. Usually, Xue Yan and Wu Xiaohuang would drink tea in the study at this time.

Soon enough, the wooden door made of yellow flower wood and had flowers carved on it opened. It was Xue Yan who opened it.

Xue Yan was surprised when he saw Ou Yangming. He held the young fellow’s hand and entered the room, then he made a cup of Snow Water Tea, which he would usually not bear to drink. “Brother Tianrui, did you gain anything from your trip?”

Ou Yangming knew what he was asking about. He nodded. “My luck wasn’t bad, so I completed what I had set out to do.”

Xue Yan and Wu Xiaohuang took a deep breath at the same time and asked probingly, “That top-grade ferocious beast… Was killed?”

“Fortunately, I didn’t fail you.” Ou Yangming raised his teacup and took a sip of the Snow Water Tea. He felt that his tiredness from this trip had been washed away by the tea. After narrowing his eyes for a while, the young fellow leaning against the chair and added, “Not only that, but I also have a generous gift for you, Senior Xue.” He opened his eyes and looked meaningfully at the elder.

Xue Yan’s curiosity was piqued when he saw Ou Yangming’s expression.

Oh?” The elder asked, “What gift are you talking about, Brother Tianrui?” Wu Xiaohuang did not seem to care, but he p.r.i.c.ked up his ears. He knew that Yu Tianrui had a high vision, which was difficult to describe with words.

“I was ambushed by 2 top-grade Spiritualists of the Teng family in the Forest of Death…” He deliberately stopped and took a sip of his tea.

Xue Yan and Wu Xiaohuang exchanged glances. They made a guess but as soon as the thought appeared in their minds, it was mercilessly crushed. They thought, ‘That’s impossible—those are 2 top-grade Spiritualists, and Teng Donglin’s much stronger than ordinary top-grade Spiritualists. No matter how high Brother Tianrui’s cultivation base in formations is, he couldn’t have killed them. Could it be that he trapped them with a formation?’ As the thought crossed their minds, they became more certain about the answer, and their eyes looked brighter. If that was really the case, the generous gift was too generous.

Ou Yangming did not know what they were thinking…

He rubbed his teacup with his fingers and stopped keeping them guessing anymore. He continued, “But the two of them didn’t succeed. Instead, their corpses were buried in the Forest of Death. I wonder if this is considered a generous gift?” The young fellow looked at Xue Yan with a faint smile.

His voice was calm, but it sounded like thunder to Xue Yang and Wu Xiaohuang. It stirred up invisible waves in their spiritual worlds, which could not be calmed down for a long time.

This was especially so for Xue Yan, whose pupils shrunk. Every part of his body began to tremble.

Xue Yan looked anxious, and he had complicated emotions; there were joy and relief. He stared at Ou Yangming and asked again, “Brother Tianrui, is… Is this true?” He was feeling anxious. If that was really the case, this generous gift to the Xue family… Was really too generous.

Ou Yangming looked deeply at the elder. “Of course.”

Xue Yan’s face was filled with excitement. His eyes were red for a split second, then he stood up and bowed at Ou Yangming. He expressed seriously, “Brother Tianrui, if you need us to do anything in the future, we’ll do everything we can to help you.”

“Okay!” Ou Yangming nodded slightly. He had done so much for this moment.

The young fellow cupped his hands and left. He knew after receiving this news, Xue Yan and Wu Xiaohuang would have a lot to talk about. He was a smart person and naturally would not ruin the mood.

After Ou Yangming left, the 2 elders, who were considered the top combat powers in Huixun City, were silent for a while.

Wu Xiaohuang opened the window after half a day and looked into the distance. He said in a deep voice, “I don’t know what request Brother Tianrui has. If he doesn’t say it, I’ll always feel uneasy. In this world, good or bad don’t happen for no reason.”

Xue Yan did not understand him. He shook his head and responded, “Brother Wu, don’t worry. Brother Tianrui has a ruler in his heart; he knows when to advance and retreat. If he wants to harm the Wu family, I’m afraid that no one can stop him.”

Wu Xiaohuang did not answer. He looked at the blue sky and the soft clouds. No one knew what he was thinking about.

After a while, he looked away and looked at Xue Yan. He said, “Brother Xue, what do you want to do about the Teng family?”

Xue Yan’s eyes were filled with blood lights and killing intent. He enunciated word by word, “A blood debt must be paid in blood!”

※※※※

After leaving the study, Ou Yangming pondered for a long time before he slapped his interspatial bag. A light flashed on his waist and when it landed, a crystal-clear blood crystal was already in his hand. The blood crystal was so red that it made one’s heart tremble, and it released the pressure of a top-grade ferocious beast that spread out in all directions. The young fellow’s eyes shone with a bright light as he walked in the direction of the Beyond Heaven Pavilion.

Gentle breezes fluttered Ou Yangming’s clothes.

All of the complicated feelings in his heart seemed to have disappeared, and he enjoyed this moment of peace.

It was then when a voice that sounded like a clear spring was heard. “Big Brother Yu, you’re back?”

Xue Xuanle had forced Wu Xuning to go shopping with her. When she saw Ou Yangming, the joy in her eyes could not be concealed. It was as if the most beautiful and colorful red flower was rus.h.i.+ng over to her from afar. Her face was charming, and she initially wanted to ask when the young fellow was going to treat her to dinner? Having said that, when the young lady looked at Wu Xuning, she swallowed her words as she did not want the young master to disturb her private time with Ou Yangming. Even if it was one-sided, she would be satisfied with this one time.

“I just came back, and I was wandering in the city for a while before I met you.” Ou Yangming spread out his hands and grinned.

Wu Xuning followed behind Xue Xuanle and asked in astonishment, “Big Brother Yu, you broke through?” Ou Yangming was slightly startled. Only then did he remember that when he left the Xue family, he had been thinking about the ancient tower, the big disaster, the Beyond Heaven Pavilion, and some other messy things that he actually forgot to hide his cultivation base.

He felt that there was no need to hide it anymore, so he nodded lightly. “I broke through to become an Advanced Spiritualist.”

His voice was calm and peaceful. It echoed in the ears of Xue Xuanle and Wu Xuning.

Xue Xuanle’s face lit up with joy. She was dressed in a gorgeous red robe. She tilted her head and smiled. “Congratulations, Big Brother Yu. Given that you’re a young Advanced Spiritualist, you might be able to advance into a Venerable One in the future!” She looked like she was longing for something as if she was the one with a chance to become a Venerable One. Nevertheless, her eyes were filled with the most sincere blessings.

Ou Yangming’s heart was warmed when he saw how adorable she was.

Wu Xuning was also smiling but deep down, a hint of bitterness was hidden in his eyes.

Xue Xuanle circling her fingers in front of her lower abdomen. After hesitating for a while, she mustered her courage and asked, “Big Brother Yu, that fierce beast…” She did not finish her sentence, but they all knew what she meant.

“I did it!” Ou Yangming nodded with a smile.

He was deeply moved. Being an ambitious smithing master, he had an incomprehensible obsession with precious refining materials. Furthermore, he could choose freely this time. How profound was the foundation of the Beyond Heaven Pavilion? n.o.body knew but there was no doubt that they were one of the greatest forces in the Spiritual Realm.

“Yay!” Xue Xuanle smiled even more happily and made a victory gesture.

The bitterness in Wu Xuning’s eyes became stronger…

Subsequently, the 3 of them walked forward at the same time. All of a sudden, a pleasant melody from an erhu was heard.

Ou Yangming was very familiar with this melody. It was “The Moon’s Reflection”. The melody was gentle like a mountain spring beating on bluestones and like the soft caws of a yellow oriole in a quiet mountain forest. It seemed to wash away the weariness in one’s heart.

“It’s a great melody!” Xue Xuanle praised!

When the melody was over, an old man in hemp clothes put away his erhu. His eyes were lifeless, his face was full of fine wrinkles, and he was slightly crippled. The old man took a puff of smoke and revealed a mouthful of yellow teeth. He then took out a piece of hemp cloth from the bag behind him and hung it on a bamboo pole swiftly. The piece of cloth danced in the wind.

On it was written: [The branches of Heaven and earth follow each other, using the calendar to calculate reincarnation cycles. It has been the same every year, month, and day, since ancient times until now.]

Instantly, more than half of the spectators dispersed. They had seen this trick many times.

The old man did not care. His deep voice echoed, “Valuable advice.”
