The Crazy Son-In-Law

At this moment, the old man suddenly realized something and quickly looked at Yang Tiancai beside him.

“By the way, I heard you mention a master earlier. Have you taken a master?”

“Grandfather, I’ve been out in the world for many years and have had a rough time. I relied on the alchemy skills you taught me to make a living. But as you know, although your martial skills were unparalleled back then, your alchemy skills were…”

Yang Tiancai looked frustrated as he recounted his experiences with his master Xiao Shun.

“At such a young age, he’s already at the peak of the ‘Anterior Realm’? Could he be a disciple of another sect?” the old man murmured.

Yang Tiancai waved his hand confidently. “Rest assured, Grandfather. I observed for a long time before taking him as my master. He is definitely not from one of the nine major sects. He must be a disciple of some powerful rogue cultivator!”

“A rogue cultivator can produce such an outstanding young talent?”

The old man was skeptical.

Seeing his grandfather’s expression, Yang Tiancai chuckled and began to praise Xiao Shun enthusiastically.

“My master is truly exceptional. Not only is his cultivation remarkable, but his alchemical skills are also extraordinary. Even my master’s master could rival you in your prime.”

“The world is full of hidden talents, and true masters often remain unnoticed in the mountains. You had great potential, but unfortunately, you were held back by me,” the old man shook his head regretfully, his eyes filled with hidden resentment.

“Grandfather, now that we have Chromatic Earth, we can plant Foundation Grass on it to produce Foundation Pills. Once you take them, your cultivation will surely return to its peak. Then we can reclaim everything that belongs to our Yang family from Moonshadow Sect!” Yang Tiancai said angrily.

“Time flies; it’s been twenty-five years,” the old man said wistfully.

Suddenly, his sorrowful gaze turned sharp and filled with intense killing intent.

He continued.

“Back then, I, Yang Shizhong, was the sect leader of Moonshadow Sect but was betrayed by villains. My only son died in the chaos, and my cultivation was destroyed, leaving me in this state!”

“Hiding in Changbai Mountain for twenty-five years, I no longer care about fame and fortune. But the pain of losing my son haunts me every day. This vendetta must be avenged!”

As he spoke these words, Yang Shizhong’s demeanor changed from kind to menacing, filled with a murderous aura and overwhelming anger.

He had once been the revered leader of one of the nine hidden sects, Moonshadow Sect.

But fifty years ago, on a dark and stormy night, he was betrayed by an elder within the sect. Not only did he lose his cultivation, but countless members of the Yang family also perished.

On that blood-soaked night.

Yang Shizhong used all his strength to save his pregnant daughter-in-law.

But due to her severe injuries, she died after giving birth to Yang Tiancai, leaving only grandfather and grandson to depend on each other.

Thinking about this filled Yang Shizhong with rage and indignation.

Seeing his grandfather’s expression, Yang Tiancai shouted angrily, “Grandfather, it’s time to settle our family’s vendetta with Yin Wuji!”

Although he had not experienced that bloody night himself, his hatred for their enemies was no less than his grandfather’s.

Yang Shizhong patted his grandson’s shoulder understandingly and said solemnly.

“Yin Wuji was at ‘Consolidation’ level like me back then. After more than twenty years, his cultivation must have advanced further. Now that he is the sect leader of Moonshadow Sect, even if I take Foundation Pills and regain my peak strength, it will be hard to defeat him.”

He paused slightly and then smiled mysteriously.

“Hehe, the ‘Three-Five Period’ is approaching. It’s a rare opportunity. By then, Moonshadow Sect will focus all their attention on Kylian. I can take advantage of this.”

The ‘Three-Five Period’ is an extremely important day for cultivators.

It is also when Kylian Ruins are safest.

On that day, hidden sect cultivators will go to Kylian Ruins seeking opportunities.

During the last ‘Three-Five Period,’ due to anomalies in Kylian Ruins, only Antarctica House ventured there alone.

This also contained a story…

“Since Grandfather has made up your mind, I’ll go with you!” Yang Tiancai declared resolutely.

Yang Shizhong shook his head. “Your strength is too weak. If you come with me to the sect, I can’t guarantee your safety. You are our family’s last bloodline; you can’t take such risks!”

Not willing to be excluded from action, Yang Tiancai protested.

“Grandfather…”

Before he could finish speaking, Yang Shizhong interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

“You haven’t even reached ‘Anterior’ yet; you can’t help me at all. If you truly want to assist me, focus on mastering this technique. If you break through before then, I’ll take you along.”

He took out an ancient book from his robe and handed it to his grandson.

The book was old and worn; its age unknown.

Seeing the four vigorous characters on its cover, Yang Tiancai exclaimed: “Lunar Transcendence!”

This was Moonshadow Academy’s supreme technique containing profound methods only accessible to sect leaders; others couldn’t learn it.

Yin Wuji’s rebellion was largely motivated by this martial art manual.

“My master copied this for me back then. I intended to give it to you before my death as a legacy. But now that I may regain my peak strength soon there’s no need,” Yang Shizhong explained.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Taking the ancient book solemnly made Yang Tiancai tremble with excitement.

This manual recorded techniques that had established Moonshadow Academy’s thousand-year prosperity; its value was immense!

Yang Tiancai had extraordinary talent but remained mediocre because his grandfather never systematically trained him or taught him complete techniques-leaving him to explore on his own.

This wasn’t entirely Yang Shizhong’s fault; given their circumstances back then he just wanted his grandson safe without thoughts of revenge-considered unrealistic at best!

But now things had changed-with Chromatic Earth they had hope for vengeance!

It was time for Yang Tiancai to learn these matters-it was family vengeance!

“You should stay by my side during this period so I can guide your training-we don’t have much time left; we must use it wisely.”

Yang Shizhong patted Yang Tiancai’s shoulder before picking up a ceramic jar containing Chromatic Earth heading towards their clay house.

“Sigh… looks like I won’t return to Master anytime soon.”

Yang Tiancai sighed helplessly before focusing intently on studying the manual.
