Chapter 1083: Grandfather Huang Wuji, Preparing the Transmission Formation

~6 min read 1,148 words

Huang Family.

Huang Longji came to see his father Huang Wuji; Huang Wuji sensed something, and the Huang Family was too quiet.

The troublemaker Luo Feifei showed no movement; it was too quiet, and he felt uneasy.

"I don't know what Father wants with the child," Huang Longji forced himself to stay calm, not to reveal himself; the news of Yan'er's death must not leak, and for now Father must not know—he'll keep it hidden as long as he can.

Huang Wuji stared at Huang Longji without speaking, his piercing gaze fixed on him; that look alone was enough to frighten.

After a while, Huang Longji showed no sign and felt no fear; he had grown used to his father's gaze. Huang Wuji asked lightly, "What about that woman? These days there's no movement—are you plotting something?"

"No, Father. Feifei went back to her maiden home for a visit; I doubt she'll return soon." Huang Longji blurted out an excuse he'd prepared, facing his father calmly.

Huang Wuji didn't believe that; Luo Feifei wouldn't easily leave the Huang Family, nor would she readily return to her own clan, which had nothing compared to the Huang Family.

Before the Luo Family, the Huang Family was a colossus, an existence the Luo Family could not confront directly.

"You'd better tell the truth—where exactly did she go? Is she doing something harmful to Yan'er? Yan'er has been quiet lately; did you do something to him?" Huang Wuji's intuition was spot on.

Pressure radiated, suppressing the son before him, body and mind oppressed; Huang Longji felt awful, unable to resist. Before his father he was nothing—his strength and dignity inferior, plus bloodline suppression—he soon couldn't bear it and dropped to his knees.

Huang Wuji said coldly, "You'd better tell me the truth, or else."

Huang Longji lifted his head and struggled to say, "Father, Feifei really went back to her maiden home; she didn't do anything harmful to Yan'er."

Huang Wuji stared at his own son, blinded by that woman, completely under her control.

He felt a sudden disappointment.

The son who once made him proud was gone; the son before him was merely that woman's puppet.

"Hmph." Huang Longji warned, "If you don't get tougher, the Huang Family will sooner or later be ruined by your hands."

"For that kind of woman, you should suppress and conquer her, not indulge or tolerate her."

"Son, your past foolish actions—I won't hold them against you. But if that woman Luo Feifei dares to wrong the Huang Family, or dares to harm Yan'er, don't blame me for being unsparing."

"By then, I hope you can bear the consequences."

Huang Wuji gave his son a cold glance, then turned and left.

Huang Longji broke into a sweat, his back soaked; he slowly stood up and gritted his teeth: "Luo Feifei, this time you might really be done for. Better not let Father know about this, or else I won't be able to protect you."

"By then, I might also suffer along with you."

Yan'er held a high place in Father's heart, surpassing his own son; if Father found out, he might also be punished.

Huang Longji knew better than anyone the consequences of angering Father.

……

On Longshe Shan.

Chen Chuyang lifted his head, glanced at Tianwai, and smiled: "Family ethics drama—truly sigh‑worthy."

"My avatar has taken on a disciple; he's not bad."

"The Tianwai plan is for now stable; going forward, we need to keep it stable."

"Inside the Mangshan Mountain Range there's an even more terrifying Mangshan Demon Palace; they'll likely find this place soon, which could cause trouble. My avatar's strength is rising fast, time is pressing, and we need more time."

"My cultivation is also steadily improving, needing time to accumulate; later breakthroughs won't be easy. This world's suppression of me remains, and each breakthrough requires breaking through a layer of worldly suppression—truly not easy."

Chen Chuyang's path of cultivation is no easy either; he must nurture various spiritual medicines and keep an eye on the Grand Duke Jupiter.

The Heishanyang helps keep watch; the little carp does nothing but cultivate and sleep, offering no help.

The Five-Colored Salamander is the same; it manages the underground river, everyone has a task, even his pets have duties.

On Longshe Shan no idlers are kept; Chen Chuyang has refined a batch of pills and provides them to outsiders.

The Chen Clan, the Great Qi Dynasty, and the various sects all need his pills.

High‑grade pills all come from his hands; Xiao Qianer's pill‑refining skill isn't good enough—she can't make anything above third rank.

It requires long‑term accumulation, but this doesn't mean Xiao Qianer's pill‑refining progress is slow; on the contrary, it's improving rapidly, incomparable to Chen Chuyang, yet compared to other pill refiners her talent utterly outshines them.

"The Hunyuan Dao Scripture isn't that easy to break through; one level can make me suffer years of cultivation, and I no longer have the joy of rapid breakthroughs. Resources—I need more resources, and as my cultivation rises, the required resources increase."

"The accumulation I need is countless times that of my peers; wanting to fill my body is no easy task."

"Even with the Grand Duke Jupiter's supply, it still wouldn't satisfy me."

"Tianwai's resources must be shipped down quickly; we need to speed up opening the Tianwai formation."

This world's resources are scarce, extremely lacking.

Compared to Tianwai, it's far worse.

Put it this way: even just within the Mangshan Mountain Range, resources are richer than this world's, and what Qinglong Daoren knows is only a part of that range, not the whole—perhaps just the tip of the iceberg.

Such a comparison shows how abundant Tianwai's resources are.

"If the Mangshan Mountain Range can be opened, my resources will increase rapidly, my cultivation will speed up greatly, and the people of Longshe Shan will enter a cultivation boom."

"The world's overall strength would also rise; if we could absorb the Mangshan Mountain Range's heavenly earth qi and pour it into this world, would that not be...?"

That idea is utterly crazy, and its realization is extremely difficult.

Chen Chuyang naturally knows that connecting two worlds is easy, but absorbing another world's heavenly earth qi is not.

Leaking a little is fine; too much would provoke resistance from the other world.

The strong ones of Tianwai are not vegetarians.

"Let's start executing the transmission formation; set it up on the mountaintop—just the right spot, since few people know about it."

"This secret mustn't be known by too many; the fewer who know, the safer."

On the mountaintop lies the center of numerous formations, a very dangerous place.

Besides Chen Chuyang and Shang Hongxue, no one else may approach.

Setting up the transmission formation requires plenty of materials, also quite rare, needing time to gather; Chen Chuyang immediately had Qi Ruohua's side help collect them.
