Chapter 529: Chapter 526: Fire Spirit Worms!_1
“Uncle!”
“Uncle Yang Chen!”
“Uncle Yang Chen, we hear our elders talk about you every day. What makes you so amazing?”
These children were mostly four or five years old, with the oldest being only seven or eight. Many of them didn’t recognize Yang Chen. This wasn’t surprising, as Yang Chen had left the Great Wilderness for more than three years. During these three years, the Yang Family had seen new blood; these children were all the new generation of the Yang Family.
Now that he was being called “uncle”, Yang Chen couldn’t help but sigh, feeling the rapid passage of time.
He patted the children’s heads and said, “There are many things that make your uncle remarkable. Now, you guys go play first; Uncle has to talk to Master Yang about some things!”
“Okay, Uncle!” The children showed their innocent expressions and happily went off to play.
Master Yang didn’t bother with them anymore. He looked at Yang Chen with a mix of admiration and surprise, “Yang Chen, you’ve really grown up and bee more mature than before.”
When Yang Chen left, he was only thirteen or fourteen. Although that age was considered quite old in the Martial Arts World, he still lacked a bit of maturity. However, now he had made up for it, and one could tell that he was capable of handling things on his own just by looking at him.
Master Yang was deeply moved and said, “Yang Chen, e with me quickly. The Clan Leader will be delighted to know that you are back.”
“Speaking of which, I also want to see the Clan Leader,” said Yang Chen gently.
“By the way, Yang Chen, how long do you plan to stay this time?” Master Yang led the way.
Yang Chen replied casually, “I’ll definitely stay for a few more days.”
Master Yang’s expression changed, “Oh, then you should stay for a few more days.”
Soon, Yang Chen and Master Yang arrived at Yang Jinhe’s courtyard.
Yang Jinhe was discussing something with someone in the courtyard. It was none other than Yang Wu.
Yang Wu had grown into an adult, but his broken arm remained, looking rather startling.
The two were talking, but it wasn’t clear what they were discussing.
Quickly, Yang Jinhe noticed the movement and turned around. He saw Master Yang and was about to speak when he noticed Yang Chen beside him. His body tensed slightly, and he muttered, “You… you’re Yang Chen?”
“Yang… Yang Chen?” Yang Wu was also startled when he saw Yang Chen.
Yang Chen smiled slightly, “It’s me, Clan Leader, Yang Wu, long time no see.”
“Yang Chen, it really is you.” Yang Jinhe’s eyes couldn’t help but moisten.
Yang Wu was also wiping away his tears with excitement. The tears fell like raindrops, making Yang Chen feel warm but also a little suspicious. He waved his hand, “Mingyue, you go down first. I have something to discuss with the Clan Leader and Master Yang.”
“Yes, Young Master.” Gu Mingyue obediently left.
Yang Jinhe couldn’t help but ask about Yang Chen’s wellbeing now that he was back.
After the pleasantries, Yang Chen asked curiously, “Clan Leader, how has the Great Wilderness and the Yang Family fared during the years I’ve been away? Has everything been peaceful? Was there anything unexpected?”
Yang Jinhe couldn’t contain his smile, “Unexpected? Our Yang Family is now a superpower in the Great Wilderness, and no one dares to provoke us. Didn’t you see those little guys on your way here? Each energetic and talented. Yang Wu has even reached the Body Refining Realm Peak. Though he is not as good as you, his achievements are still exceptional in the Great Wilderness.”
Yang Wu grinned and scratched his head before saying, “Most of the clan’s resources have been piled onto me. That’s why my Martial Arts Cultivation has improved so quickly.”
Yang Chen looked at Yang Wu and sighed internally.
Actually, Yang Wu’s martial arts talent wasn’t bad. In the outside world, he would have definitely entered the Spiritual Martial Realm with his talent. However, due to the thin spiritual energy in the Great Wilderness, by this age, he had barely reached the Body Refining Realm Peak, still some distance from the Spiritual Martial Realm.
It seemed that his return this time was to change something for the Yang Family.
While thinking about this, Yang Jinhe kindly asked, “Yang Chen, when do you plan to leave this time?”
Hearing this, Yang Chen couldn’t help but narrow his eyes, feeling suspicious.
Master Yang had also asked him earlier when he would leave.
At the time, he hadn’t taken it to heart, because he thought it was just Master Yang’s curiosity. But now, Yang Jinhe was asking the same thing.
These two seemed to be in a hurry to get him out of the Yang Family.
That didn’t make sense.
Yang Jinhe and Master Yang hadn’t asked about his current strength or what he had brought back for the family. There was nothing shameful in asking these questions. On the contrary, they were what two high-ranking members of a clan should ask for the sake of the family. Yang Chen also needed to contribute in these areas.
But they hadn’t asked.
Not only had they not asked, but they were also in such a hurry to get him to leave?
Even setting aside all of that, there was still the matter of family ties and blood relationships.
Yang Chen was suspicious, but he didn’t show it at all. Instead, he called out to Yun Lu, “Senior Yun Lu, help me observe and see if there are any unusual things around.”
“No problem, Young Master!” Yun Lu municated with Yang Chen from within the Eight Extremes River Space.
After entrusting it to Yun Lu, Yang Chen looked back at Yang Jinhe and the others, smiling as he said, “Clan Leader, has anything happened in the Yang Family recently?”
“No, I just told you that earlier,” Yang Jinhe replied awkwardly.
Hearing this, the corner of Yang Chen’s mouth turned up, and his tone became a bit colder, “Are you sure?”
“This, Yang Chen… what’s wrong with you? What could possibly happen to our Yang Family?” Yang Jinhe said.
Yang Chen suddenly waved his hand, and his five fingers shot out a series of flickering lightning bolts. The lightning turned into a small snake, which burrowed into the bodies of Yang Wu, Yang Jinhe, and Master Yang.
As the little snake disappeared in a flash, the three were all shocked. They couldn’t resist Yang Chen’s technique, and when they came to their senses, they felt a tremble in their bodies. Then, the lightning snake that Yang Chen had sent out suddenly gripped a small bug and ran out of their mouths.
“Agh!” All three couldn’t help but feel nauseous.
“There really is something fishy!” Yang Chen looked at the three small bugs and squinted his eyes, “This is… a Fire Spirit Bug? The bug that the Fire Spirit Beast is good at raising? Fire Spirit Beast, Fire Spirit Beast, it seems that the unrest I sensed in the Great Wilderness is indeed related to the Fire Spirit Beast! But I still need to investigate what happened.”
