Capítulo 1219: Chapter 622: The Xiang Family Exposed!
The sky was bright and cloudless for miles.
Forces bringing congratulatory gifts to Liangshan ca wave after wave. Ordinary forces without a Yang Transformation True Master to oversee them dared not fly through the sky and honestly took boats to enter the Liangshan territory. Under the guidance of the envoy, they set foot on the land of Liangshan.
The area resembled an island, with a dedicated guest reception gate, where a Liangshan Yang Transformation True Master awaited to greet them, and nurous Liangshan Martial Artists guarded key pathways.
As for the top forces with a Yang Transformation True Master overseeing them, they were able to travel through the air and, under the reception of the second-in-command, Lu Guangsheng, entered the inner courtyard prepared for the birthday banquet.
Many ca to celebrate the birthday, with each force typically bringing around ten people. Under the leadership of the clan elders, they cautiously stepped into Liangshan.
In today’s Jianghu, aside from the ten immortal sects, not many forces have a True Monarch overseeing them, and each one is a presence that these forces look up to.
And Liangshan is among the best of them.
Liangshan has two Yang God True Monarchs, with formidable strength, commanding countless Jianghu experts who have pledged allegiance. Nowadays, they can compete with the Seven Killings Hall of the immortal sects in Blood State, showcasing their impressive montum.
Many people know clearly that Liangshan likely is not yet a match for the Seven Killings Hall, but they are not sothing to provoke either. Just having the courage to stand against the Seven Killings Hall makes countless forces look up to them.
After all, the ten immortal sects are all forces with a thousand-year heritage, each having had an immortal overseeing them, and so even still have legendary immortals today.
No one dares to make trouble in Liangshan, so the atmosphere is quite harmonious.
Many people haven’t even arrived, yet their voices precede them, praising Liangshan’s strength, congratulating Sect Leader Song Lun’s birthday banquet, with each rare exotic treasure being proclaid.
“Sect Leader Song Yuanxiu of Qianhe Sect, congratulates Village Chief Song, offering a three-hundred-year-old Spiritual dicine plant!”
“Elder Yu Ziqing of East Mountain Valley, congratulates Village Chief Song, offering….”
“Shuzhou….”
“Qingzhou….”
Those being announced are all significant figures.
All of these were taken in by Chen Yuan and Jiang He.
Most of the people who ca were unfamiliar faces, not many were familiar, at most having t once. Not a single force on the level of the ten immortal sects ca.
But this is quite normal, the gap between the ten immortal sects and non-immortal sect forces is a huge chasm. A force like Liangshan, with an unsavory reputation, generally isn’t worthy of receiving congratulatory gifts from immortal sects.
However, in the midst of his observation, Chen Yuan unexpectedly discovered a familiar face.
Yan Kai!
Back when Chen Yuan’s cultivation had not yet reached the level of the Heavenly Gang, he was assigned a task by the Green Envoy Tao Qingyuan, to go to Dagu Mountain in Qingshui County to eliminate a group of deserters.
The leader was Yan Kai. During that battle, Chen Yuan killed the Blood Demon Elder, seizing an opportunity. Because he had a use for Yan Kai, he spared his life, and later Yan Kai, grateful for Chen Yuan’s kindness, sent him cultivation resources worth a thousand taels.
Chen Yuan, knowing Yan Kai lacked Qi Fortune, spared him back then, recalling that Yan Kai once said he would co to Blood State to make a na for himself. Unexpectedly, he ended up joining Liangshan.
However, he seed to be doing quite poorly; his cultivation hadn’t changed, and his status appeared to be just a minor leader.
Towards this old acquaintance, Chen Yuan had no desire to et again, only feeling the impermanence of fate. Nearly two years have passed since then.
Yan Kai is still the sa Yan Kai, while Chen Yuan is no longer the Heavenly Patrol Envoy he once was.
Tis have changed, and today Chen Yuan holds an exceptionally high status, fad throughout the world, with adversaries such as Prince Zhen Nan and the Great Village Chief of Liangshan, like the reigning Emperor.
While he remains weak.
However, this is just the norm; martial cultivation is inherently difficult. Without resources and the support of power, progressing further is extrely challenging, and being stuck in one realm for years is normal.
“What’s wrong, do you know him?”
Jiang He, hidden in the void, had been observing Chen Yuan. Seeing his gaze focused on a lowly Gang Condensing Martial Artist, he felt curious.
“An acquaintance from the past, we’ve t a few tis.”
Chen Yuan transmitted back.
“Hmm.”
Jiang He asked no more questions.
The gaze of a Yang Transformation True Master naturally went unnoticed by Yan Kai, although he felt a bit uneasy, he didn’t pay it much mind, diligently fulfilling his duties.
Today being the 120th birthday of the Boss, causing trouble would an he wouldn’t even know how he died.
Once, he was high-spirited, wanting to make a na in Blood State. But reality ca too harshly. As a lowly Gang Condensing Martial Artist, he could get by in small counties, but in the Blood State, filled with countless powerful figures, he was just slightly bigger than an ant.
Only two or three of his forr brothers remain, and his spirit has been dulled. Now, he only wishes to live well, seeking refuge under a powerful leader for a few stable years.
Regarding the Chen Envoy he once t, he had followed his progress and regretted not working under him back then, but everything was too late; opportunities don’t wait for those unprepared.
He’s not the only one; how many of Chen Yuan’s subordinates when he was a patrol envoy in Nanling Prefecture aren’t filled with regret?
But so what?
There are no do-overs in life.
Nurous guests for the birthday celebration filed in, and those with high status and cultivation were arranged in the inner courtyard, with what they ate and drank being top-tier dishes, each one extrely rare.
The Spiritual Wine and Spiritual Tea were even more premium.
Guests with lower cultivation and status were assigned to the outer courtyard, accompanied by a Liangshan Yang Transformation True Master, which was still quite honorable.
