Chapter 1109: Huang Yan Returns to the Huang Family

"Grandfather's words moved me; I think like this, Master, don't you need many spiritual medicines? And various techniques and divine abilities. Once I become the Family Head of the Huang Family, I can satisfy what you need. Although the Huang Family near the Mangshan Mountain Range is not the strongest clan, it is not weak either; we can still collect some spiritual medicines and techniques and divine abilities."

"Especially spiritual medicines; all kinds can be found, fifth‑ and sixth‑grade are even easy. The Huang Family itself has many spiritual medicines, and I can send those to you, Master. As for the spiritual veins you mentioned, I may need some time; you know, spiritual veins are different, extremely precious, the foundation of many forces, and cannot be taken lightly."

"Even the Huang Family has only a few spiritual veins. To obtain more, there are two ways. The first is to eliminate other families and seize their spiritual veins; this is the fastest and most direct method."

"The second is to seek ownerless spiritual veins and take them outright, such as many veins within the Mangshan Mountain Range that have no owners, only numerous monsters stationed there; this method is more dangerous."

"If you need, Master, I can still find one or two low‑grade spiritual veins."

Mid‑ and high‑grade spiritual veins are not that easy to find; even if found, they may not belong to Huang Yan.

Many forces and many families are watching, and they will not… let go easily.

After all, the higher the grade of a spiritual vein, the richer the spiritual energy, and the greater the benefit to cultivation. A family having a mid‑grade vein versus a low‑grade vein is a different matter; low‑grade veins provide little spiritual energy, insufficient to lift a family or to supply more energy for cultivation.

Spiritual veins are more important than other things.

When a spiritual vein appears in the human world, it inevitably sparks bloodshed; the higher the vein, the more terrifying the ensuing war.

Huang Yan dared not give a guarantee nor speak directly; Qinglong Daoren smiled with satisfaction, "You have this intention; the master is very pleased."

"The matter of spiritual veins is entrusted to you; whatever the vein, the master needs it. If you can find it for the master, you will certainly reap benefits."

"The same goes for spiritual medicines, techniques, and divine abilities; the master will not shortchange you."

Qinglong Daoren will not take his things for free; even with his own disciple, he keeps public and private matters distinct.

Rewards that should be given must be given; they cannot be given for nothing, otherwise others will stop helping you find spiritual veins and spiritual medicines.

Want the horse to run but refuse to feed it grass—there's no logic in that.

If you want the horse to run, you must let it eat its fill.

"Pills, Spiritual Artifacts, or divine abilities, the master can give you; whatever you want, the master can provide."

The master lacks none of these.

Huang Yan heard this and, excitedly, asked, "Master, really?"

Qinglong Daoren pressed his hand and said, "Of course it's true; anything the master produces is a masterpiece. The pills you've taken and your weapon are the best proof, aren't they?"

"These things are nothing to the master."

Huang Yan stared intensely at Qinglong Daoren; the master keeps his word and will not fool him. This master truly gives good things, not empty promises. He still understands Qinglong Daoren; during the time they have spent together, Qinglong Daoren has been very kind to him.

"Master, wait; I will go find Grandfather now and fulfill his request. Then I will certainly bring more heavenly treasures to you."

"Master, tell me whatever you need; as long as I can find it, I will bring it to you."

Qinglong Daoren nodded and saw him off.

He hopes Huang Yan will agree to Huang Wuji's request; although they have their own scheming, Huang Yan is his own grandson and a prodigy of the Huang Family, and the future of the Huang Family will depend on him.

If Huang Yan rises quickly enough, those schemes will soon disappear.

Before absolute strength, any scheming is futile.

Given Huang Yan's talent, once combined with my pills, his cultivation speed will be rapid; after merging the Flame Yang Bone and Qinglong Yimu Fire, his physique improves again, and the full potential of both has yet to be fully tapped—he still has great potential.

When Huang Yan's strength surpasses Huang Wuji's, the Huang Family will be under his command.

Qinglong Daoren is still very willing to trust his disciple; perhaps it won't take ten years for him to surpass Huang Wuji.

Elder Xinran watched Huang Yan leave, knowing the boy truly intended to go.

"Qinglong Daoist, are you really letting him go?"

Qinglong Daoren smiled, "Keeping him by my side would only be a hindrance and waste my pills; it's better to let him go to help us find spiritual medicines and spiritual veins. With the Huang Family's strength, we can still collect many spiritual medicines."

"We need not appear ourselves; if someone helps us search, why not gladly do it?"

"Just give this disciple some incentive, and he will work for me—doesn't that sound good?"

Elder Xinran blinked.

Qinglong Daoren added, "Those pills will eventually go to him anyway; why not find a reason to make him work for me first, then give them to him?"

Elder Xinran widened his eyes, stared at Qinglong Daoren, and gave a thumbs‑up: "You're awesome."

So that's it.

Qinglong Daoren truly doesn't lose anything; the pills are meant for his own disciple, so giving him a few more is no problem.

It can make Huang Yan grateful, make him work frantically for me, and Huang Yan also feels he's gaining a lot—a triple win.

The Huang Family will also feel they've gained a lot.

"I'm going," Elder Xinran thought, and couldn't help but look at Qinglong Daoren again.

"You're truly awesome; you even thought of this."

"In this respect, I'm not any better."

In scheming, she truly isn't as good as Qinglong Daoren.

She can't even match Chen Chuyang's duplicate, let alone scheme against Chen Chuyang; in front of him, she was truly defeated, battered to the bone.

The gap between the two is huge.

Only by staying beside Qinglong Daoren did she realize Chen Chuyang's terrifying power.

Within the Formation.

Huang Yan returned again, and Huang Wuji immediately asked, "Yan'er, have you decided?"

Huang Wufeng and Huang Wuheng stared at him, nervous; they both hoped Huang Yan would nod rather than refuse.

This Yan'er has grown up; he is no longer the Yan'er of before.

It's not easy to fool.

Huang Yan nodded, "Grandfather, I have thought it through; I promise you, I will go back to the Huang Family with you and become the Family Head of the Huang Family."

"Alright, alright, alright," Huang Wuji exclaimed excitedly, "Yan'er, good, good, good."

He was truly overjoyed; Yan'er's willingness to return represented Qinglong Daoren's wishes and also his own viewpoint.

Allowing Yan'er to return shows that Qinglong Daoren acknowledges them, and also acknowledges their Huang Family.

In the future, once the Huang Family forms a connection with this person, the Huang Family's dream of rising will be within reach.
