The reason why the various Cave Heaven Paradise wanted to borrow the Good Fortune Divine Monarch was to create more Yin-Yang Attributes of Sixth Grade or above, so how could they use it to exchange for the right to use it?
Yang Kai’s words undoubtedly shut everyone up.
“I’ve just returned to the Star Boundary and have many things to attend to, so I won’t be accompanying you any longer,” Yang Kai said as he flashed away, leaving behind a dozen Open Heaven Stage masters looking at each other.
On a Spirit Peak, Dong Suzhu looked up.
The moment Yang Kai returned to the Star Boundary, Hua Qing Si had already sent a message to the two elders, informing them that her son had returned. Dong Suzhu was naturally overjoyed and stood there waiting.
With his hands behind his back, Yang Fourth Master walked out from the bamboo house behind her and snorted, “The first thing he did when he came back was not to visit Father and Mother. This son of mine was raised in vain.”
Although he said so, his eyes would occasionally glance down with a look of eagerness.
Dong Suzhu turned her head and glared at him, “You talk too much. Our son’s status is different now. He hasn’t returned to High Heaven Palace for so many years, he still needs to discuss some matters with Chief Manager Hua. If you don’t want to, you can go back, no one will make you wait here.”
Fourth Master Yang sighed, “A benevolent mother often spoil her son!”
As they spoke, a ripple appeared in the air and a figure appeared. It was none other than Yang Kai, whom the two elders had been worried about day and night.
Dong Suzhu quickly greeted, “Son, you’re back!”
“Mother!” Yang Kai nodded before turning to look at Yang Fourth Master, “Father!”
Yang Fourth Master responded gloomily before turning around and entering the bamboo house.
Dong Suzhu held Yang Kai’s hand and looked him up and down. After a while, she said with satisfaction, “You haven’t lost weight, but you’ve grown a bit stronger. Have you been working hard all these years?”
Yang Kai smiled and shook his head, “I’m used to it.”
Carefully sensing his mother’s aura, Yang Kai raised his brow and asked, “Mother, are you in the Open Heaven Stage?”
Dong Suzhu nodded and said, “That’s right, Mother is also Open Heaven Stage cultivator.” It was almost like a dream as she recalled the experiences she had experienced all these years. From the Central Capital’s Yang Family until now, she had actually managed to break through to Open Heaven.
“What grade?” Yang Kai asked with concern.
Dong Suzhu smiled lightly, “Fifth Order.”
Yang Kai let out a sigh of relief, “That’s good.” Back then, because of the World Tree’s feedback, his parents had been lucky enough to condense their own Dao Seals, so Yang Kai had personally examined them. Originally, with his parents’ aptitude, even if they were able to break through to Open Heaven, reaching the Third Order was already their limit, but because of the World Tree, they actually had a chance of surviving.
Dao Divine Water, Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill. With both of these pills, Dong Suzhu had successfully broken through to the Fifth Order a few years ago.
“What about Father?” Yang Kai asked.
“It’s also a Fifth Order!” Dong Su zhu smiled. Speaking of which, it was quite risky for the two elders to break through. After all, their aptitude wasn’t good enough. Originally, breaking through to Fourth Order Open Heaven Stage was the safest choice, but when the two elders learned that breaking through to Fifth Order would allow them to reach the High Rank in the future, they decisively chose to take the risk.
It wasn’t just for their own future achievements, they had been living under Yang Kai’s wings and protection all these years, hoping that one day, they would be able to help their son in some way, instead of staying at home to retire.
Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage should have some qualifications, right? Therefore, after their breakthrough, the two old men had been diligently cultivating. In any case, High Heaven Palace had no shortage of resources, and Hua Qing Si was even more supportive of their cultivation, giving them whatever they wanted.
“Let’s go inside and talk,” Dong Suzhu pulled Yang Kai into the bamboo house.
The family of three chatted happily.
Dong Suzhu suddenly asked, “Right, how are Xiao’er and Xue’er now?”
Yang Kai said, “Everything is good. Before I came here, Xiao’er followed a Senior to the Holy Spirit Ancestral Land. The environment there is extremely beneficial to his cultivation, so Xue’er couldn’t follow him, so she stayed in the Void Land to cultivate.”
Dong Suzhu grumbled, “This little girl really doesn’t know how to come back to visit.”
Yang Fourth Master stroked his neatly trimmed beard and said in a low voice, “Speaking of Xiao’er and Xue’er, we need to discuss this matter.”
Yang Kai asked in confusion, “What does Father want to discuss?”
Yang Fourth Master and Dong Suzhu glanced at each other, but it was still Dong Suzhu who spoke up, “The two children can be said to have grown up together. If we don’t consider seniority, then they are childhood sweethearts who have been cultivating together for so many years. I’m afraid they have long since developed feelings for each other. As the big brother, you’ve been travelling outside all year round, I don’t know if you’ve noticed it, but the two of us old fogies have clearly seen it.”
“However, there is always a difference in seniority between them. Xiao’er is your adopted son, so if you call him Xiao’er, he will have to call her Little Aunt Xue’er,” Yang Fourth Master continued, “Kai’er, you have always had your own opinions, how do you think we should handle this matter?”
Yang Kai pondered for a moment. In fact, he had considered Yang Xiao and Yang Xue’s relationship before. After all, a man and a woman lived together and cultivated together all year round, so it was normal for them to develop feelings for each other over time. However, the two little brats had never shown anything in front of him, so he didn’t dare to rashly ask.
Now that his parents had brought it up, it was indeed time to make a decision.
A moment later, Yang Kai said, “In terms of seniority, Xiao’er is indeed younger than Xue’er by a generation, but in terms of master and disciple, they are both true Senior and Junior Sisters. My intention is to let nature take its course and let them deal with it as they please. If anything good happens, then we’ll just have to consider our seniority, it’s not a big deal. As cultivators, we don’t need to care about age or seniority. In any case, the two of them don’t have any true blood relations, so even if they become partners, it’s still a good thing.”
Yang Fourth Master and Dong Suzhu glanced at each other before Yang Fourth Master asked worriedly, “If that’s the case, will outsiders say anything?”
Yang Kai smiled and said, “Follow your heart, what does it matter what outsiders say? If they can’t even bear this bit of gossip, there’s no need for them to be together.”
Dong Suzhu nodded, “That’s true… For cultivators, age and seniority really don’t mean much. Among our daughters-in-law, there are many older than Kai’er. If we really want to address them according to age, we have to call her Senior.”
She was naturally referring to Yu Rumeng. As a Demon Saint, Yu Rumeng was much older than Yang Kai.
Even Xue Yue, Shan Qingluo, and Ji Yao were much older than Yang Kai, let alone Zhu Qing. Only Xia Ningchang and Su Yan were around the same age as Yang Kai.
Yang Fourth Master also nodded and said, “If that’s the case, we don’t need to worry about it. We’ll just have to see what the two children think.”
“That’s right!” Yang Kai said before smiling again, “Oh right, Father and Mother, I have something to ask of you this time.”
Dong Suzhu smiled and said, “You’re our son, if there’s anything you need, just say it. What do you need to ask?”
With a wave of Yang Kai’s hand, two figures suddenly appeared. One was a beautiful woman while the other was a silly looking man.
The two of them were minding their own business before, but when they were suddenly summoned by Yang Kai, they were both stunned.
However, after looking around and seeing Yang Kai, both of them quickly bowed, “Honored Master!”
“Honored Master?” Dong Suzhu looked at Zhao Ya and Zhao Yebai in surprise, “Kai’er, you accepted a disciple?”
Yang Kai nodded and introduced to the two elderly, “This silly-looking one is called Zhao Yebai, and this quick-witted one is Zhao Ya.”
He then turned to the two and said, “These two are Master’s Father and Mother!”
Zhao Yebai was dumbfounded, “Master also has Mother and Father?”
Yang Kai kicked him, “Nonsense, if I don’t have parents, do you think I jumped out of a rock?”
Zhao Yebai quickly waved his hand and said awkwardly, “No, Master, that’s not what I meant!”
Zhao Ya pulled him to the side and knelt on the ground, kowtowing respectfully, “Zhao Ya greets the two Grand Teacher!”
Only then did Zhao Yebai realize what was happening and quickly nodded, “Zhao Yebai greets the two Grand Teacher.”
Dong Suzhu smiled like a blossoming flower and raised her hand, “Get up, good children, get up.”
Surrounded by a gentle force, Zhao Ya and Zhao Yebai involuntarily stood up.
“Aiya, little girl, you’re really pretty,” Dong Suzhu looked Zhao Ya up and down and praised her generously.
Zhao Ya smiled sweetly and said, “Thank you, Grand Teacher.”
Dong Suzhu teased, “I wonder which little brat will benefit from this in the future.”
Zhao Ya’s face turned slightly red as she glanced over at Zhao Yebai, only to see him clenching his fists tightly and standing there with his head held high, a thin layer of sweat covering his forehead.
Dummy! Zhao Ya thought.
Seeing this scene, Dong Suzhu was well aware of what was going on. She beckoned to Zhao Ya and waited for her to come forward before grabbing her small hand and withdrawing a bracelet from her wrist, placing it in Zhao Ya’s hand and saying, “This is the first time we’ve met, consider this a gift from Grand Teacher.”
Zhao Ya looked down. Although she couldn’t see the grade of this bracelet, she knew it was definitely extraordinary and quickly shook her head, “Grand Teacher, this thing is too precious, I can’t accept it.”
“If I give it to you, just take it. This is your Honored Master’s first time accepting a disciple, how can I not show some gratitude as the Grand Teacher?”
Zhao Ya helplessly turned to look at Yang Kai.
Yang Kai nodded and said, “An Elder’s gift cannot be refused!”
Hearing her master say so, Zhao Ya pursed her red lips and said, “Xiao Ya thanks Grand Teacher for the reward!”
“Good child!” Dong Suzhu smiled and patted Zhao Ya’s head.
Seeing this, Yang Fourth Master could only take out a piece of Treasure Armour from his Space Ring and handed it over to Zhao Yebai, “Although this item isn’t too valuable, it is still suitable for your current cultivation. Consider it a gift from Grand Teacher.”
With Zhao Ya as an example, Zhao Yebai didn’t refuse, cupping his fists and shouting, “Zhao Yebai thanks Grand Teacher for the reward!”
Taking two steps forward, he held the treasure armor with both hands as if it was a precious treasure and respectfully retreated.
Although they had only just met, from the two children’s performance, the two elders had more or less understood their personalities.
Zhao Ya was undoubtedly more likeable and had a cheerful personality. Although Zhao Yebai was a lot more reserved, he had a simple and honest personality.
What’s more, this was Yang Kai’s disciples, and regardless of aptitude, there was no problem with their character.
