Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1213: Chapter 802: Green Wolf King Breaks Through

The time swiftly moved to the winter of the forty-third year of Spirit Origin.

Yang Chengxu returned from the Da’an Dynasty to the Spirit Source Land, bringing back three individuals possessing spiritual apertures.

"Family Head, all three of these have completed the Green Wood Skill!"

In the hall, Yang Chengxu presented the three individuals before Yang Zhenshan and spoke.

"Greetings, Sir!" The three quickly bowed.

Yang Zhenshan scrutinized the trio: a twelve-year-old boy, a nine-year-old girl, and surprisingly, a middle-aged man.

"This is Liu Qingyuan, he is Liu Zhe’s grandson!" Yang Chengxu introduced.

"Liu Zhe?" Yang Zhenshan recalled this old friend, though sadly the old friend had long passed away.

Speaking of Liu Zhe, Yang Zhenshan remembered someone else.

"By the way, where is Lin Zhan?" He recalled his first disciple.

After the establishment of the Da’an Dynasty, Lin Zhan took up an official position in the court there, and counting the time, it’s been over twenty years now.

Previously, Yang Zhenshan couldn’t return to Divine Wood Island, so he couldn’t care for this first disciple, but after setting up a Pocket World Gate on Divine Wood Island, Yang Zhenshan sent word for Lin Zhan’s family to move to the Spirit Source Land.

It’s been more than half a year now, yet Lin Zhan still hasn’t arrived.

"Brother Lin returned with me, but he brought his whole family, so he’s currently looking for a place to live; he should be back to pay respects to the Family Head tomorrow!" Yang Chengxu said.

Yang Zhenshan nodded slightly, "That’s good. I thought he couldn’t part with his power in Da’an!"

Lin Zhan’s cultivation has fallen significantly; although he broke through to Innate over twenty years ago, he’s been busy with governance, neglecting his cultivation, and his progress has been minimal.

Now he’s past his seventies, and Yang Zhenshan hopes he won’t fall further behind.

"Coming along are also Zhou Lan and General Zhou." Yang Chengxu said.

Yang Zhenshan instructed Qingxia beside him, "Prepare a feast for tomorrow; I want to properly entertain Zhou Lan!"

The Zhou family had long moved into the Spirit Source Land, but Zhou Lan had to guard the western part of Da’an and didn’t enter the Spirit Source Land.

Now that Zhou Lan finally comes over, Yang Zhenshan naturally wants to host her well.

After exchanging pleasantries, Yang Zhenshan looked at Liu Qingyuan and asked, "Do you have a wife and children?"

"I don’t have a wife or children!" Liu Qingyuan replied nervously.

Yang Zhenshan glanced at Yang Chengxu, who explained, "The Liu family has declined for many years; he married once in his youth, but his wife passed away long ago."

Yang Zhenshan remained silent.

The decline of the Liu family can’t be blamed on anyone else, only the lack of ambition among the descendants of the Liu family.

Although Yang Zhenshan didn’t provide for the Liu family, Lin Zhan often looked after them, not forgetting that Liu Zhe was Lin Zhan’s teacher.

Yet the Liu family’s descendants were like the proverbial useless A’dou; if they can’t succeed themselves, others’ support won’t help.

"Enough, settle down here, let the Clan Hall choose a marriage for him!" Yang Zhenshan said.

Liu Qingyuan is in his forties now; even if he cultivates Immortal Dao Skill, the prospects are not promising.

Since he’s without a wife or children, let’s find him a spouse; perhaps his descendants will have spiritual apertures.

Upon hearing this, Liu Qingyuan’s body trembled, showing a disappointed expression.

Yang Zhenshan, seeing him like this, shook his head in his heart.

Showing disappointment in front of him is not a good disposition.

A man in his forties with no self-restraint, it shows he isn’t much of a talent.

However, he remains Liu Zhe’s grandson, so Yang Zhenshan wants to care for him a bit.

Allowing him to marry and have children in the Spirit Source Land could also keep the Liu family line going.

After Liu Qingyuan left, Yang Zhenshan turned back to the two children.

"This is Cui Yang, twelve years old, his father is a Jianghu Martial Artist; and this is Ning Yun, nine years old, her father is a fifth-ranking prefect in Da’an!" Yang Chengxu introduced.

Yang Zhenshan approached, amidst the nervousness of the two little ones, to examine their spiritual apertures.

"Very good, become my disciples!" Yang Zhenshan smiled.

Although he hopes Spirit Source Land can absorb more spiritual acupoint individuals from the Ten Thousand Miles Sea Domain and Da’an, not everyone is accepted.

He certainly does not want those too old or those with ill intents; his preference is for these ten-year-olds, cultivating them young to enhance their sense of belonging to the Spirit Source Land.

Of course, Yang Zhenshan doesn’t want too many disciples; he has decided to accept seven disciples as the foundation for Spirit Source Land.

Including Yang Jizhen and Ma Qiuyan, he currently has four Immortal cultivator disciples, hence four more are needed.

And in the future, if more spiritual acupoint individuals join Spirit Source Land, Yang Jizhen and others will instruct them.

Finding spiritual acupoint individuals isn’t easy; even with Da’an’s billions of people, selecting a dozen won’t be straightforward.

Yang Chengxu noticed the two youngsters still in a daze, and reminded, "What are you still standing there for, quickly become disciples!"

"Disciple greets Master!" Cui Yang, being older, reacted quickly and bowed immediately.

"Disciple greets Master!" Ning Yun, with her delicate appearance, is a budding beauty; probably due to her upbringing in an official family, she has an earnest demeanor.

The two went forward and offered tea; Yang Zhenshan drank the tea and nodded, offering a few words of encouragement.

Later, he asked Qingxia to take them away to settle in and let them meet the two senior brothers and sisters.

The next day, Zhou Lan and Lin Zhan arrived at the Spiritual Spring Mountain Plateau.

The changes in these two were significant; Zhou Lan was already full of white hair and her face lined with wrinkles. Though she was an Innate Martial Artist, she never intentionally maintained her looks, appearing rather aged.
