Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 955: Chapter 676: The Dazhao Sacred Dynasty in Zhou Tianci’s Words

Yang Chengye said nothing more, stood up, and headed straight for the door, with Lin Zhan quickly running out to greet him.

Soon they saw An Yuxing and his companions.

The three old fellows were standing in the front courtyard of the government office, pointing and chatting.

The reason they were all together was purely coincidental.

After leaving Divine Wood Island, An Yuxing returned immediately to Ping Yuan, then sent some of the An family’s descendants to Divine Wood Island.

After living on Divine Wood Island for more than half a year, he heard that Yang Chengye was planning an uprising, so he volunteered himself and returned.

The news of the Yang family’s uprising was kept quite secretive in Da Rong, but on Divine Wood Island, it was no secret; all the families knew about it.

An Yuxing took a ship to Da Rong and coincidentally ran into the Liang and Zhou families heading to Divine Wood Island. Both were on the same route and met head-on.

Thus, An Yuxing pulled Zhou Tianci and Liang Shengze along with him.

"Chengye greets the three elder masters!" Yang Chengye immediately stepped forward and clasped his fists in salute.

An Yuxing and the other two reciprocated the salute, "Where’s your grandfather?"

"Uh! Well, even I, the younger generation, don’t know~~"

Before Yang Chengye could finish speaking, Yang Zhenshan’s voice came through.

"I’m here, come over, I’m not going out to greet you!"

Yang Chengye’s lips twitched slightly, Grandpa, can’t you come out and meet your grandson? Always being so elusive is a bit scary!

An Yuxing laughed heartily at those words, "I knew he was here!"

After that, the three nodded towards Yang Chengye and headed towards a courtyard not far from the Governor’s Office.

Yang Zhenshan and Yu Qingyi had always stayed by Yang Chengye’s side, though they never showed themselves, they always kept an eye on Yang Chengye.

The courtyard gate opened automatically, and as the three entered, they saw Yang Zhenshan and Yu Qingyi busying themselves.

"You’re right on time, I just roasted a whole lamb!"

Yang Zhenshan and Yu Qingyi lived quite comfortably; while Chongshan Town and Liaodong were bustling with activity and Yang Chengye was busy as well, Yang Zhenshan and Yu Qingyi, though following Yang Chengye, seemed quite leisurely.

On this journey, eating and drinking along the way, they had lived very comfortably.

On the blazing red charcoal was a golden-brown roasted whole lamb, and Yang Zhenshan occasionally sprinkled some spices.

Roast whole lamb, roast lamb chops, roast lamb leg, these were Yang Zhenshan’s favorites.

Back in Chongshan Town, he used to roast and eat frequently, and later when he went to the Capital City, the chef at the Marquis Mansion was best at this.

However, after going to Star Moon Island, because sheep were scarce there, he only occasionally had a treat in the space.

Now back in Chongshan Town, Yang Zhenshan picked up this unique skill again.

"Where’s the wine!"

An Yuxing wasn’t concerned about the roast lamb, only interested in the wine.

Yang Zhenshan glanced at him disdainfully, "We’re outside, how would I carry wine with me!"

"Stop fooling me, I know you too well, hurry and bring the wine out!" An Yuxing said unceremoniously, sitting down beside him.

Yang Zhenshan really couldn’t do anything about him, Yu Qingyi smiled and said, "I’ll go get it!"

"Please sit, elders!" Yang Zhenshan said to Zhou Tianci and Liang Shengze with a smile.

He hadn’t met Zhou Tianci, but he had seen Liang Shengze a few times.

Though they weren’t very familiar, now that they were all in the same camp, there was a bit more intimacy.

Zhou Tianci glanced at the casual An Yuxing and chuckled, "Then I won’t be polite, haha, Brother Yang’s wine is unmatched in the world, today I will drink my fill!"

"Indeed! The wine must be ample today!" Liang Shengze also chimed in.

Yang Zhenshan looked at An Yuxing and laughed, "Don’t learn from him, he’s an old drunkard!"

The four chatted and laughed, sitting together, soon raising their glasses and toasting.

They were all old and seasoned, no need for excessive politeness.

Eating what they should, drinking what they should.

Not to mention, Yang Zhenshan’s roasted lamb was truly delicious, crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and mouthwateringly fragrant.

Paired with the fragrant Drunken Immortal Brew and the Hundred Herbs Brew, the four feasted heartily.

After a few rounds of drinks, the forty-pound roasted lamb was reduced to a pile of bones, Zhou Tianci took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, "Ah, it’s been so long since I’ve eaten so heartily!"

They weren’t particularly gluttonous, and though Innate Martial Artists also needed to eat, their unique constitution meant they could go three to five days without food.

Of course, their appetite was also enormous, with four people devouring a whole lamb and drinking over ten pounds of wine, their capacity far exceeding that of ordinary people.

Yu Qingyi only ate a little, the rest went into the four’s stomachs.

"Same here!" Liang Shengze laughed.

Yang Zhenshan brought over a tea table, set up the tea set, and poured tea for the three, saying, "I heard that Elder Zhou has been to Dazhao?"

He was very interested in Dazhao, as legends of Dazhao were popular throughout the Ten Thousand Miles Sea Domain, growing more vibrant closer to the Stormy Sea Area.

However, the various tales were so mixed, one couldn’t discern fact from fiction.

Some say that Dazhao is blessed with natural talents, countless Innate Martial Artists.

Some say Dazhao is filled with Treasure Medicine, Spirit Fruits found everywhere.

Others say Dazhao is home to beings surpassing Innate Martial Artists.

In short, the rumors were so mixed, it was impossible to tell truth from falsehood.

Zhou Tianci nodded slightly, "I have been, stayed in the Dazhao Dynasty for six years!"

Yang Zhenshan asked, "What is Dazhao like?"

An Yuxing and Liang Shengze also became curious, having heard of Dazhao but not as many tales as Yang Zhenshan had.
