"Yang Xiao, you've gone too far!"
This ti, even Yang Biao was furious.
Even if all their sacrifices were for nothing.
They had still made them.
And it was all for you, Yang Xiao.
Now, not only do you call us trash, you call us cowards. This is just outrageous bullying!
"Am I wrong? When you saw this Heaven Repairing Pill, you knew you'd been deceived. You knew your sacrifices were for nothing. And yet, not a single one of you stood up to demand revenge for our innocently fallen brothers!"
"Tell , are you not cowards!"
"Tell , are you not trash!"
Yang Xiao's words struck them to their core once more.
'That's right. They had sacrificed so much, and all they got was a wasted pill.'
'A Poison Pill.'
'Such deception, such humiliation, such hatred.'
'This was far more profound than Yang Xiao calling them trash and cowards.'
'Why hadn't they gotten angry?'
'Why get angry at Yang Xiao instead?'
'Was it because they hadn't thought of it?'
'Or was it because the person who deceived them was far too powerful?'
"Yang Xiao, you're right! But we are not cowards, and we are not trash!"
"We will definitely avenge our brothers' blood feud!"
"And we will definitely kill that traitor, Yang Xiong!"
Yang Biao roared.
He swept his gaze across all his brothers and said, "I'm going to dicine Peak right now to get revenge on Wang Qianhe. Whoever is willing to co with is a brother to , Yang Biao. If you're unwilling, I won't force you. But if you don't co, don't you ever ntion the word 'brother' again!"
His words were final.
Yang Biao was the first to walk out of the West Courtyard.
Following close behind was Yang Ying, who had lost a hand.
Then ca the ever-silent Yang Nan.
Yang Hua!
Yang Shex!
...
Of Yang Zhentian's nine adopted sons, seven stepped forward. The remaining two were Yang Songg, who had fought Yang Xiao before, and the other, the shrewdest of them all, Yang Hou.
They did not follow.
Yang Biao turned and looked at them.
Disappointnt welled in his heart.
"Brother Biao, I've thought it over. Adoptive Father is gravely injured. I need to stay here and take care of him!"
Seeing Yang Biao look over, Yang Songg lowered his head and offered a weak excuse.
"Yang Biao, you saw Yang Xiao. He called us trash, called us cowards, and now he's goading us into seeking revenge. I don't want to be driven by the Yang Family's father and son anymore. So, this ti, I'm out."
This was Yang Hou.
"I'm not even thirty yet. I'm at the Peak of the Ninth Layer of the Martial Master realm, just one step away from the Innate Realm. With my talent, I can secure a place for myself in the Purple Sun Sect."
Compared to Yang Songg, Yang Hou was much more straightforward.
He frankly stated his thoughts.
But this just made Yang Biao feel even worse.
"Fine. The two of you can leave."
Just then, Yang Xiao spoke.
With a single, indifferent sentence, he moved to drive Yang Hou and Yang Songg away.
Of course, Yang Xiao's original intention was to kill them both. But when he thought of his father in this life, and how they had, after all, made an effort for his sake, he suppressed his killing intent and let them go.
'In the future, if their paths don't cross, so be it. But if they end up like Yang Xiong and Yang Lang, they shouldn't bla him for not cherishing their old ties.'
"Suits just fine!"
Yang Hou didn't seem to care. He gave a cold smirk, glanced at him, and strode away.
Yang Songg, however, was at a loss. Though he didn't want to go to his death, he also lacked the courage to leave. Under everyone's gaze, he felt imnse pressure.
After a mont's thought, he followed after Yang Hou.
And left the Yang Family.
"Yang Xiao, take good care of Adoptive Father for us."
After speaking, Yang Biao prepared to leave.
But Yang Xiao blocked their path.
"Just now, I called you trash and cowards. That was my mistake. The truth is, it would be foolish to go after Wang Qianhe in your current state. Stay here, and I'll treat your injuries."
"Once you've recovered, there will be a chance for revenge."
As he spoke, Yang Xiao went directly to Yang Ying's side. Without another word, he pressed several of his vital acupoints, and Yang Ying's spirit imdiately improved greatly.
The bleeding, which had been impossible to stop, actually ceased.
Seeing this, Yang Biao and the others were even more astonished.
But Yang Xiao paid them no mind, treating their injuries one by one.
Finally, he wrote out a series of prescriptions, took out one hundred thousand taels of Gold from his Storage Ring, and had Yang Nan—who was the least injured but one of the first to stand up—go to Spirit dicine Street to buy the Spirit dicine.
When the Spirit dicine was brought back, Yang Xiao personally applied the redies and administered the treatnts.
Under his miraculously skillful dical techniques, their injuries recovered with astonishing speed.
It was simply breathtaking to watch.
"Yang Xiao, I never would have thought you had such skills. We were wrong to look down on you before!"
"That's right. With skills like these, even if you still can't cultivate, you could secure a place for yourself in the Purple Sun Sect. We were so out of line before."
"Yang Xiao... no, Young Master. From now on, I, Yang Biao, am truly convinced by you. What you did earlier... you were testing us, weren't you?"
Hearing Yang Biao say this, Yang Xiao didn't hide it. He said directly, "That's right. After what happened with Yang Lang and Yang Xiong, even though I knew most of you are n of principle who understand gratitude and duty, I still had to be sure."
"Besides, I plan to invest heavily in training you all to help you advance further. If there were still people like Yang Lang and Yang Xiong among you, wouldn't that be a huge loss for ?"
The first sentence made everyone, including Yang Ying, understand his intentions.
But as for the second sentence, everyone present just laughed it off, thinking Yang Xiao was joking.
Although Yang Xiao's use of dicine was miraculous, healing their serious injuries in an instant, and was even cleaner and more efficient than those Great Pharmacists on dicine Peak...
...to say he could train them and help them advance further was a bit too far-fetched.
However, Yang Shex was very curious about Yang Lang's death.
"Young Master, how did you kill Yang Lang?"
Before, when Yang Xiao had said he killed Yang Lang...
...not a single person present would have believed him.
But now, they believed him.
They also believed that Yang Xiao hadn't slandered Yang Lang.
It must have been Yang Lang who tried to kill him first.
"Did you use poison?"
Yang Ying asked.
Yang Xiao shook his head.
He raised his hand and pointed forward.
A pillar of crimson fla, almost orange in color, shot through the air, blasting a decorative rockery to pieces.
It was the Gathering Essence Finger.
"This..."
Seeing this pillar of fla shoot into the sky...
...the seven of them, Yang Biao included, were stunned once again.
"Th-this kind of power... it definitely could kill Yang Lang!"
"So the Young Master had this kind of technique up his sleeve."
"Compared to the Young Master, we're simply worlds apart."
"And to think I used to look down on the Young Master. Looking at it now, we really are trash. We can't even compare to one of his fingers!"
From that mont on, these seven sworn brothers no longer held a shred of dissatisfaction toward Yang Xiao.
Nor did they have a shred of doubt.
Instead, a trace of admiration was born in their hearts.
After all, in this world, the strong were revered. That was the fundantal law.
In their eyes, Yang Xiao possessed the ans to easily erase them from existence.
Yet he treated them with such kindness, even personally healing their wounds.
A person like that was absolutely soone worth following.
Not to ntion, they owed a great debt to the Yang Family.
They might have had complaints because of Yang Xiao in the past, but not anymore. This Young Master was just too formidable.
'Looks like that's settled. Next ti sothing like this happens, I'll just prepare a Gathering Essence Finger. Even if I don't use it to kill, it's a great deterrent!'
Yang Xiao smiled with satisfaction.
The results of this trip to the West Courtyard were very satisfactory.
He believed that in the ti to co, under his guidance, these seven n would beco the seven true, unshakeable pillars of the Yang Family.
