Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1327: Chapter 857: The Yang Family Really Is Quite Mysterious

Xuanqing Sect, Youhuang Peak.

Inside the bamboo building, a maid arrived at the Quiet Chamber door and softly said, "Elder, the Madam of the Yang family is here to see you!"

Inside the Quiet Chamber, it was always silent. The maid wasn’t anxious; she stood outside, waiting quietly.

After a long while, Chu Lingxiao’s voice with a metallic quality came from within the chamber, "The Yang family Madam? Which Yang family?"

"The Yang family, one of the Twelve Families. The visitor claims to be the mistress of the Yang family and is waiting for the Elder’s response in the Guest Hall of Green Jade City!" the maid replied.

The Quiet Chamber door opened with a creak, and Chu Lingxiao emerged, dressed in a snug blue outfit.

"The Yang family’s mistress? Yang Zhenshan’s wife?"

"Well, I’m not sure!" the maid replied.

Chu Lingxiao showed a thoughtful expression.

She was actually quite curious about the Yang family.

The Yang family’s activities have been significant in recent years, selling a vast amount of resources and goods through the Illusion Moon Sect, which is not typical for a small family.

Even a Family couldn’t achieve such a level.

According to the messages she received from the Illusion Moon Sect, the Yang family seems to have other forces backing them. The Illusion Moon Sect was willing to help the Yang family gain family status because of the power behind them.

Exactly what kind of force it was, Chu Lingxiao didn’t know. The Illusion Moon Sect kept the matter highly confidential, and even the Xuanqing Sect couldn’t obtain any information from them.

"Invite them in!"

"Yes!"

The maid departed, and after more than half two hours, she finally brought Yu Qingyi to the bamboo building.

The bamboo building was located deep in the bamboo forest, appearing exceptionally tranquil, with the air filled with the faint fragrance of bamboo leaves.

When Yu Qingyi arrived at the bamboo building, Chu Lingxiao was already seated on the upstairs platform, having prepared tea.

Chu Lingxiao was slightly surprised when she saw Yu Qingyi because Yu Qingyi’s appearance looked quite young. Her oval face was as delicate as white jade, her bright eyes shined like stars, and her long hair draped over her shoulders like flowing clouds.

Her delicate, soft, and beautifully slender jade fingers were covered by the pure white Snow Silkworm silk long sleeves, yet appeared even whiter than the silk.

Is this the Yang family’s mistress?

She looked more like a young girl in her prime.

However, Chu Lingxiao quickly confirmed that the one before her was not a young girl because she had already noticed Yu Qingyi possessed cultivation at the Golden Body Realm.

"Greetings to Elder Chu. Forgive me for my abrupt visit," Yu Qingyi said, her charming smile surpassing the beauty of spring flowers.

Chu Lingxiao rose and returned the courtesy, saying, "Please take a seat, Madam!"

Yu Qingyi gracefully and elegantly sat beside Chu Lingxiao; every move brimmed with noble elegance, not the transcendent loneness typical of an Immortal but an unspeakable superiority.

Now Yu Qingyi was no longer the worldly woman she was before; she usually presented herself simply and plainly, but when it was time to display nobility, she could do so effortlessly.

"Elder Chu, your place here is quite serene!" Yu Qingyi said with a smile, looking at the crisp bamboo building.

"Haha, I’m just seeking some peace!" Chu Lingxiao chuckled lightly, then changed the topic, saying, "I had no idea Immortal Master Yang had a wife!"

"That’s quite normal, as this is my first appearance at the Sea of Spirit!" Yu Qingyi replied.

"Oh, so the rumors are true!"

"What rumors?"

"The rumor that the Yang family is backed by a powerful force?"

Yu Qingyi sipped her tea lightly without answering.

This matter involved the Spirit Source Land, so she couldn’t say much.

Her silence, however, appeared as an affirmation in Chu Lingxiao’s eyes.

Chu Lingxiao pondered for a moment, then asked, "May I know why Madam is visiting today?"

"It’s about the marriage between Qinting and Qianqian!" Yu Qingyi raised her head, her smile gentle, "Qinting is my great-grandson. It’s rare for him to find a girl he likes; naturally, as his great-grandmother, I hope he can end up with his beloved!"

Chu Lingxiao had long guessed Yu Qingyi’s intention, "This matter is quite difficult for me!"

"Difficult?" Yu Qingyi smiled gently, "I know Elder Chu wants nothing more than the Wang family’s support so that you can obtain the resources to impact the Divine Soul Realm from within the Xuanqing Sect!"

"Actually, there’s no need for Elder Chu to place all hopes on the Xuanqing Sect; my Yang family can also provide Elder Chu the adequate resources!"

The key to impacting the Divine Soul Realm is to strengthen the Divine Soul; the so-called impact on the Divine Soul Realm is the process of consolidating the Divine Soul and penetrating the spiritual aperture.

The disparity between Martial Artists’ Innate Realm and Golden Body Realm and Immortal Cultivators’ Qi Refinement Realm and Foundation Establishment Stage lies in the Divine Soul.

Upon reaching the Divine Soul Realm, Martial Artists compensate for this disparity.

Although, no matter how compensated, Martial Artists are far inferior to Immortal Cultivators concerning the Divine Soul.

The gap between the Divine Soul Realm Martial Artists and Golden Core Cultivators remains as vast as the heavens, but through Divine Soul cultivation, Divine Soul Realm Martial Artists can surpass Foundation Establishment Cultivators concerning the Divine Soul, which is why their strength far exceeds Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

If the gap in the Divine Soul cannot be compensated, then the Divine Soul Realm Martial Artists would appear fragile before Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Someone like Yang Zhenshan, who specializes in Divine Soul Skill, can easily eliminate Martial Artists with weaker Divine Souls than his.

The resources for impacting the Divine Soul Realm are nothing more than the Elixirs and heavenly materials that enhance the strength of the Divine Soul.

Yang Zhenshan can refine the Illusion God Pill, and with some time and effort to gather the necessary herbs for it, he can continuously refine the Illusion God Pill.

The emphasis Yue Ming places on the Illusion God Pill indicates its great appeal to Martial Artists at the Golden Body Realm.
