Immortal Path to Heaven Chapter 996 – Half-day Breaks

Chapter 996: Half-day Breaks

The Jiang family was like a huge dragon that roared at the sky and suppressed an entire region.

They had thousands of direct disciples. Along with the collateral and vassal families, it was huge. As long as the tiger’s body shook, the whole Spiritual Realm would shake.

To be able to obtain the approval of 2 powerhouses of the Jiang family was also a great thing for Ou Yangming.

At this moment, Lil’ Man lay on the bed and adjusted his breath for a moment. A strange look appeared in his eyes at first but after a moment, he looked pleasantly surprised. Even his body began to shake.

Lil’ Man endured his weakness and walked out of the bed, then he knelt down on both knees and kowtowed 3 times solemnly. There was a faint nasal tone in his voice as he expressed, “Thank you, my lowly life is now yours! Whenever you want it, you can take it away with a single word!” Although the child was young, he was very mature. He was not like Jiang Qingcheng, who only wanted to play, and he was not like Lil’s Lan, who was timid and weak. He was Lil’ Man, and he could carry the world.

This scene shocked Jiang Yingrong to the extreme.

She was very clear just how stubborn Lil’ Man was. Other than being a little intimate with Jiang Qingcheng, he was neither cold nor warm to her.

Ou Yangming was silent for a moment, then he responded softly, “This spiritual medicine can slowly replenish your foundation, but I’m not sure if it can help you achieve atavism again. After all, it has a lot to do with your hard work. Besides, your inner demon’s too strong, and your hatred is too intense. If you don’t disperse this evil aura, one day, your kindness will be killed by the inner demon. Even if you have a great opportunity, you’ll still fall under the tribulation of the inner demon. You won’t become a Venerable One and will forever be an ant. Do you understand?”

“I understand!” Lil’ Man kowtowed again. At this moment, it was not an exaggeration to say that Ou Yangming was his heaven.

As Ou Yangming’s voice reverberated, it was like the divine thunderbolts of the nine heavens were continuously striking the ground, crushing the minds of Jiang Yingrong, Jiang Zhihai, and the others into pieces.

Majestic and indescribable storms swept out, setting off monstrous roars. There was only one thought left in their hearts. ‘This… What kind of pill was that? How could it have such a heaven-defying effect?

‘Replenishing one’s foundation? It’s simply a legendary pill.’

Jiang Zhihai and Jiang Yingrong’s eyes were dull, and their tongues were stuck out. After being dazed for a while, they were suffused with a great sense of happiness.

‘This heaven-defying pill formula is in our hands now. This… This is a great opportunity!’

At this time, they truly felt how accurate the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One’s words were. ‘Master Ou’s the Phoenixes’ messenger, and he has endless fortunes. Even the slightest bit of fortune from him will be endlessly beneficial.’

Nonetheless, Jiang Zhihai and Jiang Yingrong did not know that ordinary herbs alone could not achieve such an effect.

This was because the spiritual herbs were planted on the back of the old black turtle. As time passed, they fused with some of the turtle’s Bloodline Power. They were also watered with spiritual liquid from time to time, allowing the effects of the pills to reach a heaven-defying level. Otherwise, if they were just ordinary herbs, it would be impossible to achieve such an effect. Not to mention slowly replenishing one’s foundation, even removing the poison in Lil’ Man’s body would be somewhat difficult.

Additionally, it would not be easy to find all these herbs in the Big Ruins.

“Get up. Your body’s too weak now.” Ou Yangming waved his sleeve gently.

“Yes!” Lil’ Man nodded gently and obediently lay on the bed. He wanted to quickly recover and learn wood carving from He Jian.

On this day, Lil’ Man was truly reborn. With a domineering posture, he rose like a comet and would be unstoppable. Of course, this would all in the future.

In the room, Jiang Qingcheng looked around and smiled. She said pitifully, “Uncle Yu, I want to learn alchemy. Are you willing to teach me?”

Ou Yangming glanced at her and said with disdain, “What’s the point of learning alchemy when you’re only in the Extreme Grade? Besides, alchemy requires talent. One’s spiritual Qi needs to have the wood property as the main and the fire property as the support. You… Hmph!”

Jiang Qingcheng stepped hard on the wooden board and said in a delicate voice, “Mother, look, Uncle Yu’s bullying me again!”

As she said that, she walked to Jiang Yingrong’s side and gently pulled her hair.

Jiang Yingrong pinched her little red face with force and said with a smile, “Brother Yu’s right. What’s the point of refining pills when you’re in Extreme Grade? You don’t have a solid foundation, and you only know how to aim too high! Look, Lil’ Man has already become a Spiritualist at such a young age. What about you? You only want to play all day long!” At this moment, Lil’ Man had also become “his child” or “her child” that parents would compare their children to

Jiang Qingcheng’s mouth twitched. Her head tilted, and she did not say anything.

Nevertheless, she secretly used the corner of her eyes to size up everyone. Clearly, she was not really angry. Instead, she was pretending. This girl was too adorable.

It was rare to be able to maintain such a character in the cursed land. How could it be described as? To be able to remain unstained in a bad environment, and to be able to be pure and untainted—that was probably what it meant.

Jiang Qingcheng remained expressionless. After a long while, when she saw that no one was paying attention to her, she rolled her eyes and smiled again.

“You!” Jiang Yingrong’s finger gently tapped on the space between her eyebrows. She did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Ou Yangming had a deeper understanding of this little girl’s craftiness. He made up his mind that he would not provoke her no matter what.

Jiang Yingrong glanced at Lil’ Man and said, “Brother Yu, Lil’ Man needs to recuperate. Come and visit again in a few days!” After hearing that, Ou Yangming knew that she had something to say to him.

He nodded at Jiang Zhihai and took the initiative to walk out.

Jiang Qingcheng wanted to follow but was scared away by Jiang Yingrong’s gaze.

On the sandalwood path, the breezes were light. Jiang Yingrong’s face was gentle and charming. Her hair swayed gently with the breezes, making her look alluring.

Her sleeves fluttered, and she gently took a step forward. She smiled lightly and noted, “Brother Yu, I’m also a straightforward person, so I won’t beat around the bush. I don’t know how many more of these pills you have, but the Jiang family will surely give you a satisfactory price for them.” She vaguely guessed that if her clan’s alchemist went to refine them, they would be slightly inferior to those refined by Ou Yangming. More importantly, she wanted to tie Ou Yangming to the Jiang family.

When she was at the Longevity Alley in the ancient city, she was only a tailor and could take half-day breaks if she wanted to. After returning to the Jiang family, she was no longer a tailor. She was Jiang Yingrong, the daughter of the patriarch. She had to think for the Jiang family. Of course, the most important thing was that she had to do this for Jiang Qingcheng.

Every child was the heart and soul of their mother. A mother’s love was as gentle as water. Jiang Yingrong wanted to give Jiang Qingcheng a better environment. As long as Ou Yangming agreed to help, even if he did not stay in the Jiang residence, as long as he was tied to the clan, Jiang Yingrong and Jiang Qingcheng’s status would certainly rise.

Furthermore, this was also a huge gift for Ou Yangming.

It was worth noting that Ou Yangming had offended the Blood Dragons and the Blood Horned Dragon Clan within such a short period after entering the Big Ruins. After being tied together with the Jiang family, even if those clans wanted to make a move on him, they would have to think twice. Of course, if Jiang Yingrong knew the young fellow had killed the Blood Horned Dragon’s Clan’s prince, she would not think like this.

Ou Yangming thought for a moment and responded softly, “Elder Sister Jiang, these herbs are very rare, so I only have a few with me. If the Jiang family finds them useful, just take them.” This was also a signal that he was willing to form an alliance with the Jiang family. After all, in the Big Ruins, his foundation was too weak.

Jiang Yingrong smiled gently and expressed, “Thank you, Brother Yu.”

The two of them walked one after the other into a long pavilion. In front of them was a small lake with duckweeds rippling in the water.

Under the soft light, the waves sparkled, creating circular water ripples.

Jiang Yingrong bent over and picked up a stone. She gently threw it into the small lake, scaring away the spiritual fishes in the lake and causing fine water ripples to be seen.

She tucked her hair behind her ear and smiled. “Brother Yu, Qingcheng’s too young. She has caused you a lot of trouble but please bear with her.”

“It’s okay. She’s quite cute.”Ou Yangming looked at the surface of the lake, and a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.

In his opinion, Jiang Qingcheng was amusing. She always had strange thoughts that could wash away his low spirits.

“She has followed me since she was young. She’s cheerful and even comforts me sometimes.” Jiang Yingrong’s eyes were bright when she talked about her daughter.

Ou Yangming listened and did not answer. He occasionally nodded slightly.

Jiang Yingrong talked a lot. After an unknown time, she shook her head and looked at the water plants floating in the small lake. She sighed. “I’ve drifted like this duckweed for half my life. I didn’t expect to return here in the end.” She looked calm, but her eyes were hollow. No one knew what she was thinking about.

“You reap what you sow. No one can escape this.” Ou Yangming twisted his body and leaned against the pillar of the long pavilion.

For some reason, when he said this, the scene of Xu Aoran tearing apart the thunder clouds appeared in his mind again.

He thought to himself, ‘If the blue sky doesn’t die, where will the yellow sky stand? He’s too arrogant. He’s full of pride and is unyielding toward the universe. Is this the Upper Tribulations? If the Upper Tribulations’ Coffin isn’t destroyed, the Upper Tribulations won’t be destroyed?’

Jiang Yingrong did not know that in this short span of time, Ou Yangming had thought so much. She tapped her soft and beautiful chin and said, “Yes, the great path of arma runs through life. It’s rumored that after breaking through from being a top-grade Venerable One, one can feel the laws of the universe. I wonder if it is true.”

“I don’t know.” Ou Yangming shook his head and looked into the distance.

The long pavilion instantly quieted down. Only the rippling waves could be seen.

Jiang Yingrong hesitated for a moment and commented softly, “When I saw you this time, I felt that something was different, Brother Yu.”

“What’s different?”Ou Yangming raised his voice.

“I don’t know. I can’t tell, but you seem more peaceful. You seem to have reached the mysterious realm of not being pleased by external gains and not being saddened by personal losses.” Jiang Yingrong’s voice was very soft, and her smile was beautiful.

Ou Yangming knew very well that this was because he had participated in the formation of the laws of the poisonous pill’s world. inadvertently, he would emit a mysterious aura that would affect the people around him.

Of course, he would not admit it. He randomly made up a reason and said, “Maybe it’s because I entered the state of the connection between Heaven and man during my last adventure!”

When Jiang Qingcheng heard this, she looked like she finally understood the reason behind it. She was certain that this was the reason. The brilliance in her eyes had reached its peak. She thought to herself, ‘Ah, it’s the connection between Heaven and man.’

The light in her eyes soon dissipated. She looked into the distance and said softly, “Brother Yu, the winds are rising. I have to go back.”

As she spoke, she moved and gracefully disappeared on the sandalwood path.
