Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1034: Chapter 718: The Difference

A small episode quickly ended, and everyone went back to eating as they should, and resting as they should.

Tian Hu picked up the child, seeing that the child had only fainted, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Yang Zhenshan looked at the child, fetched a bowl of rice soup and handed it to Tian Hu, "Feed it to him! If you’re hungry, you can have some too!"

Tian Hu immediately showed a grateful expression, "Thank you, senior!"

Then, he carefully fed the rice soup to the child.

Soon the child woke up, seeming to be frightened, always hiding in Tian Hu’s arms, not daring to come out, only occasionally sneaking glances at Yang Zhenshan.

"You seem very loyal to your master!" Yang Zhenshan sat on a rock and casually asked.

"I’ve been with the Prince for more than forty years!" Tian Hu replied softly.

"Hmm, how old are you?"

"This humble one is fifty-two this year!"

Yang Zhenshan suddenly understood. At fifty-something, having followed Prince Ji for more than forty years, it meant he had been with Prince Ji since he was young.

That makes sense, if this person wasn’t loyal enough, that Prince Ji wouldn’t have entrusted his son to him.

"What are your plans next?"

"I beg for your protection, senior!" Tian Hu looked at Yang Zhenshan with anticipation.

Yang Zhenshan smiled and said, "What’s in it for me?"

Tian Hu took a deep breath, looked at the child in his arms, then at Yang Zhenshan, "I am willing to offer all my possessions to the senior!"

Although Yang Zhenshan and his group had shown very ruthless methods earlier, Tian Hu realized that these people were not as brutal as he had previously thought.

Firstly, these people did not have the habit of eating others, secondly, Yang Zhenshan had bypassed him and even gave him a bowl of rice soup. Lastly, and most importantly, they had no other reliance now.

The royal family had been overthrown, and they had nowhere to turn to. As for living incognito as ordinary people, although it’s possible, life as ordinary people wasn’t easy either, and they had to face pursuit from the Shaking Mountain Sect.

Besides, he probably guessed the origins of Yang Zhenshan and his party.

They came from overseas, from the Spiritual Wilderness west of the Stormy Sea Area.

Because many questions Yang Zhenshan asked earlier were basic common knowledge, for example, Heavenly Que City. It’s understandable for ordinary people not to know, but for Innate Martial Artists not to know Heavenly Que City, it’s obviously not reasonable.

The so-called Spiritual Wilderness actually refers to regions with relatively scarce cultivation resources. In the eyes of the Dazhao Dynasty, the areas west of the Stormy Sea Domain were regarded as a Spiritual Wilderness.

"Possessions? Haha, ordinary possessions won’t move me!" Yang Zhenshan smiled at him.

Tian Hu showed a struggling expression on his face, but finally reluctantly took out a palm-sized leather-like bag from his chest.

"I hope that senior can look after the Princely Heir’s safety in light of these items!" He solemnly handed the small bag to Yang Zhenshan.

Yang Zhenshan took the bag with some surprise.

What treasure could be in this bag that makes Tian Hu so sure he would be willing to protect a child for years for it?

He looked over the bag, which was grayish-white and seemed to be engraved with some patterns.

"Is this a rune?"

Tian Hu saw that Yang Zhenshan didn’t recognize it, and explained, "This is a storage bag, sir can use Inner Recognition to inspect it!"

Inner Recognition is a special ability possessed by Half-step Innate and above Martial Artists, a kind of inner sight capability.

Half-step Innate Martial Artists need Inner Recognition to connect their internal meridians and circulate True Qi.

With a thought, Yang Zhenshan immediately discovered a space appearing in his mind, just like he could see his internal meridians and True Qi through inner sight.

The space wasn’t large, about one meter square, and it didn’t contain gold or silver, but rather jade boxes, porcelain bottles, and books.

Yang Zhenshan’s heart skipped a beat, and he moved his mind again, a jade box appeared in his hand.

He opened the jade box, inside was a red fruit, emitting a gentle glow.

"Is this a Cassia Seed?"

Yang Zhenshan asked somewhat hesitantly.

The Cassia Seed is mild in nature and has the effect of enhancing vision. After consumption, it can improve eyesight and can also be refined into elixirs. It is said that many cultivation techniques for pupil skills require elixirs made from Cassia Seeds.

Yang Zhenshan had seen this on the Records of Spiritual Fruits and Exotic Treasures, but never seen the real thing.

"Yes, there are eighteen Spirit Fruits, one hundred and eight types of Spiritual Medicine, thirty-eight Spirit Pills, twelve cultivation techniques, and twenty-two Spirit Stones in here." Tian Hu said softly, gazing at Yang Zhenshan.

Yang Zhenshan checked each item in the storage bag.

The eighteen Spirit Fruits were divided into four types, all of which were Spirit Fruits that Yang Zhenshan didn’t have.

One hundred and eight types of Spiritual Medicine, which are Treasure Medicine, nearly half of which Yang Zhenshan had already planted in the Spirit Source Land.

As for the Spirit Pills, Yang Zhenshan took out one and examined it closely.

This Spirit Pill was different from those he had refined.

The Spirit Pills he made were actually just pills formed by boiling various herbs, Treasure Medicine, and Spirit Fruits in a pot and molding the remaining medicine into pills.

Those pills, although different in color, had a grayish and dull surface.

But the Spirit Pill before him emitted a crystalline glow, its surface smooth and flawless, brilliant and colorful, with faintly mysterious dark patterns flowing.

"Is this a Spirit Pill?" Yang Zhenshan, like an ignorant country bumpkin, asked a very foolish question.
