Chapter 394

I’m extremely sorry. Some people came to my home and delayed me. I rushed here in a hurry and was sweating all over…

The Elder Hall of the Yang family.

The hall is huge and spacious, with a thick soft blanket laid on the ground. There are many exquisite landscape paintings carved on the four walls. In the censer in the middle of the hall, there is a soothing fragrance that can calm the mind and soothe the nerves. The room is warm, and many precious stones are inlaid on the dome of the hall, twinkling like stars.

Several gray-haired old guys are wearing simple clothes, either sitting or standing, either studying the chess manual in front of them or comprehending the mystery of a cultivation method, enjoying themselves.

These elders look ordinary, and their vigor and vitality are extremely introverted. There is not much difference from the ordinary old men outside. In fact, each of them has unique skills and a great reputation.

In the center position, Yang Zhen is sitting upright on a chair. Although he is over seventy years old, he still has white hair and a childlike face, and the high spirits of his youth can still be faintly seen.

As one of the persons in charge of the Elder Hall, and because of his age, it is inconvenient for him to go out and move around, and he can no longer travel around the country to make contributions to the Yang family like when he was young. So Yang Zhen has been sitting in the Elder Hall all year round, handling some affairs with several other elders who are also of advanced age.

At this time, Yang Zhen’s eyelids are drooping, looking very listless. His two hands are tucked into his sleeves, listening to a young man in front of him talking about things.

After a long while, the young man finally finished speaking and then looked at Yang Zhen expectantly, waiting for his reply.

Slowly opening his eyes, in the seemingly turbid eyes, jingguang overflowed. Yang Zhen stared coldly at the young man with a look of impatience on his face.

“Useless thing！” Yang Zhen snorted. “After going out for so many years, is this the garbage you brought back to the Yang family？ Do these unseemly garbage still want to exchange for the following of the blood servants？ I think you are even more muddled than I am.”

The young man was scolded by him and suddenly became a bit red in the face and neck.

“You go back. I will record these credits for you, but it is not enough to exchange for the following of any blood servant.” Yang Zhen waved his hand impatiently and said, “Wait until the day when you have enough credits. But the battle for the throne is about to begin. I’m afraid you don’t have time to prepare. It’s better for you to give up the battle for the throne as soon as possible. So as not to make people laugh.”

The young man looked dejected and sighed helplessly. He still seemed a little reluctant to give up and pleaded, “Elder, I just want to exchange for the one with the lowest strength…”

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Yang Zhen： “Not enough is not enough. What are you talking about? Get out of here quickly！”

With a furious shout, an invisible air wave hit the young man’s body and directly blew him out of the Elder Hall.

The entire Elder Hall buzzed. The few idle white-haired elders remained unmoved, as if they were all deaf and completely ignored this side, still focused on the matters in their hands.

Outside the hall, the youth climbed up in a sorry state. His face was filled with humiliation, his cheeks were red. and he left was indignant.

Yang Kai, who had just arrived at the entrance of the hall, saw this scene and couldn’t help but have an indescribable feeling in his heart.

That youth was Yang Tie, the third-ranked member of the younger generation of the Yang family and could be considered Yang Kai’s third brother.

After the family’s order allowing blood servants to participate in the fight for the heir was issued to each direct branch mansion, the young masters of the younger generation were all acting quickly, using what they had gained from their years of experience outside to exchange for the allegiance of blood servants.

Just looking at it now, Yang Tie hadn’t obtained anything too valuable outside in recent years, so he was blasted out by the elder.

“Third brother is out of the running.” The voice of a person came into the ear, carrying a sense of pity.

Yang Kai looked over in the direction of the voice and saw Yang Zhao standing there, with a hint of sadness on his face looking at Yang Tie’s departing back and shaking his head constantly.

“Second brother！” Yang Kai walked over and greeted.

“Brother Kai.” ” Yang Zhao smiled hehe.

Yang Kai looked at the other person beside him. This person’s figure was as straight as a sword. Just standing there quietly, he gave people a sense of calmness that no matter the sky fell or the earth cracked, he would not change. His complexion was indifferent and had not changed in the slightest from beginning to end. Only when Yang Zhao called ‘Kai Di’, he rolled his eyes and looked over here.

“Brother！” Yang Kai’s expression turned solemn.

The only young master in the younger generation of the Yang family who had reached the Divine Movement Realm, the eldest brother Yang Wei！

“Kai Di？” There was a hint of surprise in Yang Wei’s eyes. When Yang Kai greeted him, for some reason, his own true essence actually fluctuated uncontrollably. This kind of situation would only occur when he felt pressure.

The newly cultivated spiritual sense swept around Yang Kai and found that he was only at the eighth level of the True Yuan Realm. He couldn’t help but frown and was secretly strange in his heart. He didn’t quite understand why Yang Kai would make his true essence fluctuate for a moment.

“After a few years of not seeing each other, Kai Di has also grown to this level.” Yang Wei nodded slightly, and a touch of approval appeared in his eyes.

Just as the words were finished, suddenly a look of horror and shock flashed across his face.

Five or six years ago, the youngest brother in front of him could not cultivate and was just an ordinary person without the strength to truss a chicken. But now, when they met again, he had actually reached the eighth level of the True Yuan Realm！

Although his cultivation level was two minor levels lower than his own, the time he had spent cultivating was seven or eight years shorter than his own！ Just now when they first met, he actually didn’t think of this point.

Yang Wei finally realized that the reason why the other party would put pressure on him was not without reason. I’m afraid that given him some time, he would surpass himself one day！

“You’re here to hand it in too？” Yang Zhao looked at Yang Kai with a light smile. The latter nodded slightly and said with a bitter smile： “There’s no way. Since the family has done this, I have to come.”

“Hahaha！” Yang Zhao laughed heartily and patted Yang Kai’s shoulder affectionately： “Otherwise, why do you think the family has so many reserves？ They were all stolen back by us from the outside.”

“They are all things of the family. Sooner or later, you will have to use them yourself.” Yang Wei seemed to have a naturally cold face. In Yang Kai’s memory, he had never smiled. He didn’t talk much and seemed rather dull, but his style was resolute and vigorous.

Hearing him say this, Yang Zhao and Yang Kai also quickly stopped talking about this matter.

“Is Brother Kai going to exchange the two blood servants you brought back？ I think they are quite concerned about you.” Yang Zhao asked casually.

Yang Kai slowly shook his head： “There are other candidates.”

Yang Zhao couldn’t help but be stunned. He seemed to have never expected that he didn’t want Tu Feng and Tang Yuxian.

However, Yang Kai obviously didn’t want to say more. He turned his head and said： “Where’s Fifth Brother? Why didn’t I see Fifth Brother?”

Yang Zhao and Yang Kang are biological brothers and have always been inseparable, and generally will not be separated.

Yang Wei snorted： “With me here, how dare he show up？”

Yang Zhao and Yang Kai looked at each other and couldn’t help shrinking their necks. Not only was Yang Kang afraid of this big brother with a natural cold face, but all the brothers also had a sense of awe for him.

This is not just because he is the eldest in age.

“I’ll go in first.” Yang Wei signaled to the two. He walked into the Elder Hall with his hands behind his back.

Not long after, he walked out again and strode away.

Yang Zhao smiled bitterly： “Big brother still doesn’t like to talk so much. Even the brothers want to get close to him but can’t.”

“It’s because of his personality.” Yang Kai slowly shook his head. In fact, when it comes to it, he quite appreciates Yang Wei’s personality. He doesn’t talk nonsense, is not sloppy, says what he has to say, and does what he wants to do. It’s extremely enjoyable.

“Second brother is also going in first. You wait for a while, Kai Di.”

“Hmm.”

After a long time, Yang Zhao walked out with a smile on his face. Obviously, he was very satisfied with this trip. After he walked out of the Elder Hall, Yang Kai leisurely walked in.

When he saw Yang Kai coming in, Yang Zhen stared at him intently. When he walked close and saluted, he then chuckled： “I remember you, kid. Last time you exchanged a set of Xuan-level martial skills for a Golden Feather Eagle.”

“That’s right.” Yang Kai nodded slightly. It was also Yang Zhen who had issued the paperwork for him to exchange for the Golden Feather Eagle last time, and that was how he had retrieved the Golden Feather Eagle from Du Chengbai. It hadn’t been long since then, so naturally Yang Zhen remembered.

Laughing with a hint of schadenfreude, Yang Zhen said, “Regretting it now, aren’t you？ Hahaha！ Old man knew at that time that you would definitely regret it. A set of Mysterious-rank martial skills, actually wanting to exchange for a not very useful beast. You’ve lost big time in this deal！ That was a bargaining chip that could be used to get a Blood Servant to follow！”

As if he could see Yang Kai regretting, the old fellow was quite happy.

Yang Kai slowly shook his head and smiled enigmatically： “I don’t regret it. Besides, even if I did regret it, it would be of no use and would only add to my troubles.”

Yang Zhen snorted coldly and pouted： “Stubborn to the end！”

He clearly thought that Yang Kai was just pretending to be magnanimous and was actually regretting it to the core.

“Then I really want to see. Whether you can bring me any surprises this time！” Yang Zhen still had his hands tucked in his sleeves, looking completely unconcerned. “Let’s hear it, how many Blood Servants do you want to exchange for？”

“At most, it’s only two. So, two it is！”

The smile on Yang Zhen’s face gradually faded, and he stared coldly at Yang Kai. His expression gradually became serious, and even those white-haired old men beside him who seemed to be deaf also stopped what they were doing at this moment and turned their heads to look over here.

In an instant, all the gazes in the room were fixed on Yang Kai. The old fellows were astonished for a moment, and then each of them revealed an interested expression, actually craning their necks to look forward.

The young masters of the Yang Family who are out experiencing outside can at most only experience in first-class forces. The resources possessed by first-class forces are not too many, and even fewer can be opened up to the young masters of the Yang Family.

To exchange for the following of a Blood Servant, at least one set of Mysterious Grade or three sets of Heavenly Grade top-quality martial skills and cultivation methods is required.

Last time, Yang Kai had already used up one set of Mysterious Grade martial skills. This time, he actually wants to exchange for two Blood Servants.

That means he needs at least two more sets of Mysterious Grade martial skills. Does he have them？

This is simply an impossible thing！ If Mysterious Grade martial skills and cultivation methods were so easy to obtain, then their value wouldn’t be high either.

Everyone in the room didn’t think that Yang Kai could get what he wanted, only thinking that he didn’t understand the rules and overestimated his chips.

Each one of them put on a posture of watching a good show.

After a long while, Yang Zhencai smiled disapprovingly and said casually, “Talk about your chips. This old man will naturally evaluate whether you can exchange for the following of two Blood Servants.”

Yang Kai nodded slightly, took out two spotless white jade pieces from his bosom, and placed them on the table in front of Yang Zhen.

Yang Zhen frowned and glanced at him, a hint of impatience emerging on his face. He snorted coldly, withdrew his hand from his sleeve, and without any noticeable movement, picked up one of the jade pieces and probed into it with his spiritual consciousness to investigate.
