Chapter 998: The Three-Pointed Double-Edged Saber

Yang Jiao and Yang Chan were overjoyed.

Their second brother had finally achieved Great Luo; they could go to save their mother.

A long time ago, they had wanted to save their mother Yaoji once they reached the Golden Immortal realm, but they happened to encounter a period where various forces were competing and frantically developing their military strength.

In Honghuang, Golden Immortals were emerging one after another.

Being merely a Golden Immortal was no longer enough to rank among the best in Honghuang.

Thus, they had no choice but to continue enduring.

Yang Chan was fine; as the little sister, she had her cousin Longji Gongzhu to look after her, so she lacked no cultivation resources and did not need to risk her life on the battlefield to accumulate merit.

The two brothers, Yang Jian and Yang Jiao, could not take Longji Gongzhu's gifts for granted.

They joined the army and fought in battles across the land.

In every war, they charged at the front, fierce and unafraid of death.

Yang Jian, in particular, was so brave in battle and accumulated so much merit that he once went three hundred years without a single day of leave.

He was either slaughtering on the battlefield or on his way to do so.

It was precisely because of this that he was able to accumulate enough merit to exchange for an Eight-Turn Golden Pill.

……

Another hundred years passed.

Yang Jian finally stabilized his cultivation and walked out of the Practice Room.

"Second Brother!"

"Second Brother!"

Yang Jiao and Yang Chan hurried forward and called out joyfully.

Yang Jian also revealed a smile and said, "Big Brother, Little Sister, I have achieved Great Luo."

"Good, good!"

Yang Jiao said excitedly, "Second Brother is already a Great Luo, and with us two Peak Golden Immortals, it is enough to go and save Mother. Second Brother, let us go now."

Yang Chan nodded repeatedly and said, "Mm-hmm, Second Brother, I miss Mother so much."

Yang Jian shook his head and said, "There is no need to rush to save Mother for this moment. We must first speak to our cousin about this matter."

Yang Chan frowned and said, "Second Brother, why must we tell our cousin? The one guarding Taoshan is merely a Golden Immortal. Even if the Heavenly Court is alerted, the reinforcements sent will at most be Great Luo Golden Immortals. Second Brother, you practice the Eight-Nine Profound Art taught by Brother-in-law, and your weapon and armor are both Post-Heaven Supreme Treasures; even facing a Peak Great Luo, you are not without the strength to fight."

Having fought on the battlefield for over thirty thousand years, Yang Jian was no longer that impulsive youth with only raw courage.

He said in a deep voice, "The matter of Mother concerns the face of the Heavenly Court. We must consider not only how to save Mother but also how the Heavenly Court will deal with us afterward.

Although I am a Great Luo, besides Haotian and his wife, the Heavenly Court still has three Sages-to-be.

As for Great Luos, there are nearly a hundred.

If the Heavenly Court refuses to let this go, what shall we do?"

"This..."

Yang Jiao and Yang Chan frowned.

This was indeed a problem.

Yang Jian continued, "Let us go find our cousin first and ask for her opinion. If our cousin agrees to us going, then we will have no worries."

If Longji Gongzhu agreed, there would naturally be no need to worry about the Heavenly Court holding them accountable.

There were two scenarios here:

One: Longji Gongzhu communicates with the Heavenly Court to make them overlook the matter.

After all, Yaoji is Haotian's own sister, and there is still deep affection between them.

Back then, for the sake of face, he had no choice but to suppress Yaoji.

Now that tens of thousands of years have passed, the matter is long over, so there is naturally no need to keep harping on it.

Two: The Heavenly Court refuses to let it go, but Longji Gongzhu takes the responsibility for the matter.

Although the Heavenly Court is strong, it is not stronger than Great Shang.

If Longji Gongzhu insists on protecting them, Haotian will have no choice; he surely wouldn't fall out with Great Shang over this.

Yang Jiao asked in a deep voice, "What if our cousin does not agree?"

A cold glint flashed in Yang Jian's eyes: "If that is the case, then our family will wander the ends of the earth. The world is vast, and I do not believe there is no place for our family of four."

Mother must definitely be saved.

If no one provides cover and the Heavenly Court refuses to let it go, they will have no choice but to flee for their lives. Yang Chan supported him, saying, "Second Brother, as long as our family can be together, I am willing to wander the ends of the earth."

Yang Jiao simply said, "Good."

"Good."

Yang Jian looked at Yang Jiao and Yang Chan and said loudly, "No matter what happens in the future, our family must stay together. Little Sister, send a message to our cousin and tell her we are entering the palace to see her."

"Alright, Second Brother!"

………

Imperial Palace.

Qingluan Palace.

"Cousin!"

Yang Jiao, Yang Jian, and Yang Chan all bowed together.

Please... do... bookmark... the... book...!

Ever since Longji Gongzhu's identity was revealed, they had visited a few times over the years.

However, unlike Yang Chan, who entered the palace almost every few days to keep Longji Gongzhu company and was already a frequent guest, they were not.

"We are family, there is no need for such formalities."

Longji Gongzhu said, looking at Yang Jiao, nodding and saying: "Yang Jian, you are very good, you have already achieved Great Luo. Coming here this time, you all want to go and rescue your mother, right?"

Yang Jian nodded: "Yes, cousin, it has already been nearly forty thousand years, we cannot wait."

Longji Gongzhu nodded slightly: "Mm, I am very gratified that you were able to come find me first instead of recklessly going to Taoshan; this shows that you have all matured."

Regarding this matter, I will first communicate with my mother, you all go back and wait for my news.

However, it is not a big problem.

So much time has passed since the matter of my aunt, and there are not many people in the Honghuang paying attention to it anymore."

"Thank you, cousin!"

The three siblings, Yang Jian, were overjoyed.

With these words from Longji Gongzhu, they no longer needed to worry about the Heavenly Court.

If one can live peacefully, who would want to wander the ends of the earth?

Furthermore, in the Great Shang Celestial Dynasty, as long as you work hard enough and have enough Merit Points, you can exchange for any item, even including Innate Spiritual Treasure; these are all clearly priced by the Imperial Court.

It is just that these Merit Points, of course, are a massive number.

Although it is out of reach, looking across the Primordial World, only in the Great Shang Celestial Dynasty can one, regardless of background, have the opportunity to exchange for Innate Spiritual Treasure as long as one has the ability.

In other major forces, unless you are the direct line of the direct line, you shouldn't even think about it.

Longji Gongzhu waved her fair hand, and a Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade radiating a majestic aura and profound Dao rhyme appeared before Yang Jian.

"This is a Superior Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade; I will give it to you. Your natural talent and comprehension are both extraordinary, and it is not impossible for you to achieve Quasi-Saint in the future."

"This... cousin, this is too valuable, I cannot accept it!"

Yang Jian was startled and hurriedly declined.

Yang Jiao and Yang Chan were also stunned by Longji Gongzhu's grand gesture.

This is a Superior Innate Spiritual Treasure, after all.

Especially in this era where Great Luo Golden Immortals emerge in large numbers, Innate Spiritual Treasure is particularly precious.

Because to achieve Quasi-Saint, one must first possess an Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Otherwise, no matter how talented you are, it is all in vain.

Longji Gongzhu smiled and said: "Accept it, this was actually sent to you by your brother-in-law. He told me earlier that if you achieved Great Luo, I should give this Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade to you. Your brother-in-law thinks very highly of you."

Hearing that it was sent by Yin Qi, Yang Jian was instantly so excited his face flushed, no longer having his previous composure.

"Many thanks to the Great King."

In Yang Jian's heart, his brother-in-law Yin Qi was not only his master but also the idol he worshipped.

Although later on, Yin Qi never took the initiative to contact him again, and he felt a bit dejected because of this, he now knew that Yin Qi had never forgotten him.

Thinking of this, he excitedly took the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade.

"Congratulations, Second Brother!"

Yang Jiao and Yang Chan were also happy for Yang Jian; although there was envy, there was no jealousy.
