Chapter 1875 Visiting the Yang Family
"Senior, wait!"
Just as Liang Yan lowered his escape light, he saw three escape lights speeding towards him, arriving in front of him in an instant.
But they are the patrolling monks of Bai Jade City, two men and one woman, their cultivation levels are not low, and the worst ones are in the early stage of the Golden Core.
"It turns out to be the coach of the Bamboo Army!"
The three of them recognized Liang Yan at a glance, their expressions instantly became respectful, and they all saluted him.
"I wonder what business Liang Shuai has in our White Jade City?" one of the men asked cautiously.
"I'm here to visit the Yang family in Baiyu City, but this mountain range stretches for tens of thousands of miles, and I don't know which mountain the Yang family is on?" Liang Yan explained his purpose.
As soon as he finished speaking, the only female cultivator among the three was stunned and asked subconsciously: "Yang family, which Yang family is it?"
"What? There are still several Yang families in Baiyu City?"
Liang Yan seemed to be smiling but not smiling. Seeing the woman's stunned expression, he had already guessed something in his mind and said with a smile: "Of course it's the 'Yang family' who are famous for their sword-making."
"ah?"
The female cultivator exclaimed in surprise, but immediately realized that she had lost her composure, covered her mouth, and her face turned slightly red.
"Senior, don't be surprised. In fact, she is the Yang family monk you are looking for. Her real name is Yang Lu. I was surprised when I heard you mentioned my family just now, so I lost my temper. It is not disrespectful to you." The man next to him explained quickly.
Yang Lu came back to her senses at this time, nodded immediately and said: "That's true, don't be surprised, Commander Liang. I just didn't expect that someone like you would actually come to visit our Yang family, and I felt a little excited."
In fact, it's no wonder that they are so nervous, because Liang Yan's current status is extraordinary. He is one of the ten most powerful commanders in Nanxuan. How can ordinary monks dare to neglect him?
"Don't be nervous. Although this is my first time to visit the Yang family, I have already dealt with the monks of your Yang family before, and the relationship is pretty good."
Liang Yan didn't seem to care.
His eyes fell on Yang Lu, and he smiled slightly and said, "Since you are a monk of the Yang family, could you please help me lead the way?"
"No problem, I'll cover it!"
Yang Lu nodded repeatedly, but then thought of something again and turned to look at the other two people.
"Don't worry, we will help you find someone to take over your fellow Taoist patrol duties." The man knew what she was thinking and said proactively.
"Then thank you fellow Taoist!"
Yang Lu said goodbye to the two of them, turned around with Liang Yan, and flew deep into the mountains.
When he arrived at Bai Jade City's territory, Liang Yan didn't want to be too ostentatious, so he lowered his evasion light and always flew behind Yang Lu.
This woman was wearing a goose-yellow blouse and mist skirt, with a snow-white complexion. Although her appearance was not very good, she still had the beauty of Xiaojiabiyu, and she looked very comfortable.
She seemed to be very curious about Liang Yan. During the flight, she talked to him from time to time, and occasionally glanced at him. Seeing that he was approachable and did not have any airs of seniors, the conversation became more and more casual.
"Senior, can you tell me how old you are this year?" Yang Lu asked with a smile.
Liang Yan was a little funny.
He has read countless people, and it can be seen that Yang Lu must have practiced in the family before, and rarely went out to practice. Therefore, she has an innocent personality. No one else would dare to ask this question in front of him.
"If we follow the secular world's calculations, I must be over three hundred years old now." Liang Yan said to himself.
"Three hundred years?!"
Yang Lu's eyes widened with an incredulous expression on her face, "Senior, you are younger than me!"
After saying this, he felt that it was inappropriate. He covered his mouth and said with a smile: "Senior, I didn't mean that! I just think... Alas! Fortunately, I still think that I have high understanding and good qualifications. After four hundred years of cultivation, I am already golden." I'm in the middle stage of alchemy. I didn't expect that you, senior, have already been the ancestor of the Tribulation for more than three hundred years. Sure enough, the old saying is true, there is heaven outside the world, and there are people outside the world!"
"It's just a coincidence, and on the road to the great road, the first mover may not be able to reach the other side, so there is no need to engage in temporary disputes." Liang Yan said lightly.
Yang Lu nodded, seeming to understand, blinked, and asked: "Senior, you said you have dealt with our Yang family monks, who is a senior from the Yang family?"
"Yang Jianying."
"Brother Jianying?" Yang Lu raised her eyebrows slightly, looking a little surprised, "I didn't expect it to be brother Jianying! He used to take me to play when I was young, but his talent was too outstanding and he was ignored by the family. The Council of Elders selected him and sent him to the Holy Land for training, and it has been difficult to see him since then."
"It turns out you are quite familiar with each other."
"That's not true. His father and my father are brothers, so he should be my cousin." Yang Lu laughed.
Liang Yan nodded after hearing this, but secretly thought in his heart: "It turns out that this girl is also a descendant of Yang Jian. If she knew that it was my ancestor who killed her grandfather, I'm afraid she wouldn't be so close to me."
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel elated.
Yang Lu saw that he was not interested, so she wisely said nothing more. She just urged Dun Guang to lead the way, and soon she arrived in front of a huge snow mountain.
"This is Lingyao Mountain. Because there are a lot of cold crystals in the belly of the mountain, which wrap the spiritual veins in the way, there is heavy snow on the mountain that never melts all year round. We, the Yang family, chose to station here because the cold crystals here are convenient for making flying machines. sword."
Yang Lu introduced him, then lowered the light and led Liang Yan to the mountainside.
The two of them had just landed when they saw hundreds of people already standing on the mountain road, including men and women, all of whom were not weak in cultivation.
The leader was a white-haired old man, a genuine ancestor of the Tribulation. Judging by his aura, he should have passed the third difficulty. Although his head was full of white hair, his complexion was rosy and he looked energetic.
Standing side by side beside him was an old woman, holding a pure golden dragon-headed crutch. Her aura was also not weak. It seemed that she had passed the second difficulty.
"Hahaha! Liang Shuai is coming here. I am sorry for missing you from afar, but I hope you will forgive me!"
The white-haired old man laughed heartily, took a few steps forward, and led everyone in the Yang family to greet Liang Yan.
"Master!"
Before Liang Yan could answer, Yang Lu had already run to the old man's side. She seemed not at all restrained, and she was obviously the one who was favored in the family.
"Okay, okay!" The old man touched Yang Lu's head lovingly, and then said: "You did a good job leading the way for Liang Shuai. But there is nothing for you to do here for the time being. You can go back first."
"All right."
Yang Lu originally wanted to stay, but she also knew that this was not a place where she could talk. She looked back at Liang Yan, smiled slightly, and turned around to leave.
"Liang Shuai, the younger members of the family don't know etiquette. If you bump into fellow Taoists somewhere, please Liang Shuai don't get along with them." The old woman, leaning on a dragon-head crutch, stepped forward to apologize.
"What's the matter? It's Liang who came uninvited and disturbed the peace of the two fellow Taoists. Please don't blame me, fellow Taoists." Liang Yan chuckled.
"Liang Shuai is so polite!" The white-haired old man smiled brightly, "But this is not the place to talk. Why not go to the Hidden Sword Pavilion in the back mountain? The environment there is quiet and there is also the 'Han Yue Spring', which is an excellent place to drink tea and discuss Taoism. place."
"That's fine."
Liang Yan nodded and followed everyone in the Yang family to the back mountain.
A quarter of an hour later, there was a simple stone table next to the quiet spring, with four people sitting around it.
In addition to the old man, his wife and Liang Yan, there was also a middle-aged man dressed simply.
In fact, as early as when Liang Yan arrived at Jue Tian Great Wall, he had already ordered people to inquire about the Yang family in Bai Jade City, so he knew the identities of these three people.
Among them, the energetic old man is the contemporary head of the Yang family, Yang Kang! The old woman holding a dragon-head crutch next to him is his Taoist companion Mei Yan. They both come from a family of practitioners. They have known each other since childhood and have worked hand in hand on the path of practice. Therefore, Mrs. Mei's status in the Yang family is almost Same as Yang Kang.
As for the plainly dressed middle-aged man, his name is Yang Li. He is the third son of the two, and his cultivation has reached the peak of Tongxuan.
The first two children of Yang Kang and his wife both died in infancy. Only the third son grew up and was groomed as the next head of the family.
"Liang Shuai, you have a great debt to our Yang family."
Yang Kang chuckled and said: "The 'Yang Family Sword Seal' is the inherited treasure of our family. Without this sword seal, I would not be able to practice the Yang family's swordsmanship to the extreme. Back then, my second brother was extremely talented, and the elders in the family were all I was optimistic about him, so I gave the 'Sword Seal' to him for enlightenment. Unexpectedly, he was bewitched by someone and left the family with the 'Yang Family Sword Seal' without permission, which resulted in this inherited treasure wandering outside."
"How many years have passed, we are all despairing and have no illusions. Unexpectedly, the 'Yang Family Sword Seal' was sent back by Liang Shuai. This is a great kindness. Please accept my respect!"
As Yang Kang said this, he stood up and saluted him.
Liang Yan smiled slightly, stretched out his hand a little, and stopped the other party with a burst of energy.
"Why is Fellow Daoist Yang doing this? Liang just did it conveniently."
"No, for Liang Shuai, it may be a matter of convenience, but for us, the Yang family, it is a major matter related to inheritance!"
Yang Kang looked serious and said slowly: "Actually, we wanted to visit Commander Liang as early as half a year ago. But at that time, you were busy with military training, and our Yang family was also assigned important tasks, so we really couldn't do our job. How about now? It’s easy to ease the situation. I heard that Liang Shuai was recuperating from his injuries. I planned to visit him in a few days, but I didn’t expect that Liang Shuai was one step ahead of us. It’s really embarrassing.”
"hehe."
Liang Yan smiled. In fact, he had never forgotten his agreement with the Yang family, but when he first arrived in Nanxuan, he was indeed busy with military affairs. And he hadn't decided yet on what kind of flying sword to choose at that time, and he didn't make a decision until recently.
"By the way, where is Yang Jianying? Why don't you see him coming?"
Liang Yan was a little confused. He and Yang Jianying were old acquaintances. Back then, the top ten geniuses entered the Thousand Magic Tower together, but in the end only Yang Jianying, Wu Xin and himself came out alive.
Of course, if Zhao Xunzhen turned into a fierce ghost, that would be four people.
Logically speaking, when he came to visit the Yang family, Yang Jianying should come out to receive him, but Liang Yan never saw this person.
"Shuai Liang doesn't know something."
Yang Kang sighed and looked a little sad: "Jianying has been very silent since he came back from Ruixu Mountain. He only stayed at home for half a year before going out again, saying that he was looking for a way to crack the 'Heavenly Jealousy'. This time It’s been almost a hundred years since I left, and I’ve never come back.”
“It turned out to be like this”
Liang Yan couldn't help but sigh a little after hearing this.
The top ten geniuses are all among men, but it is a pity that the way of heaven is ruthless. The so-called "jealousy of heaven" is indeed real. If Yang Jianying wants to take a further step, he must crack the "jealousy of heaven", and this step can be described as dangerous and dangerous.
Even Liang Yan had a Taoist fight with his mortal enemy "Blind Yama" back then. If he had lost, the "Fire King of Hell" would have become Taoist now.
As for Yang Jianying, she has been missing for a hundred years and her life or death is probably uncertain.
Liang Yan knew it well, but it was impossible to say it out loud. He could only say a few words of comfort.
"Yang Jianying is a rare swordsmanship wizard. Maybe he encountered some opportunity outside and cannot return in a short time." Liang Yan said softly.
Yang Kang gave a bitter smile, but shook his head and said nothing more.
After a moment of silence, Liang Yan said again: "Two Taoist friends, Liang will get straight to the point. I am here this time hoping that the Yang family can fulfill their agreement and give me a top-quality flying sword."
After hearing this, Yang Kang and Mei Yan looked at each other, nodded slightly, and said, "Don't worry, Commander Liang. Jianying told us everything that happened when he came back. Since it was his agreement with you, we Yang We should keep our promises.”
Mei Yan also smiled and said: "Look, Commander Liang, behind you is the Sword Hidden Pavilion of our Yang family. Three years ago, due to the critical situation of the Civil War, our Yang family stopped making swords, but we have collected all the top-quality flying swords in our family." It was brought to the frontline battlefield and stored in the attic in front of me. Liang Shuai can go in and choose one to take away. Our Yang family has fulfilled its promise."
After hearing this, Liang Yan smiled slightly and had no intention of getting up.
Yang Kang and Mei Yan were both surprised when they saw this. They communicated secretly for a moment, then heard Yang Kang cough and said slowly: "What? Could it be that Liang Shuai doesn't like the flying swords forged by our Yang family?"
"No!"
Liang Yan took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "I have heard about the Yang family's sword-making skills for a long time. When I saw it today, it was indeed well-deserved! There are a total of twelve flying swords in this hidden sword pavilion, and each one is unparalleled in sharpness, and Each contains mysteries, and they are indeed rare treasures.”
As soon as these words came out, Yang Kang and Mei Yan both looked surprised.
Because the Hidden Sword Pavilion is the most important place of the Yang family, it is surrounded by layers of barriers, making it impossible for spiritual consciousness to detect it. But Liang Yan was sitting here, and he didn't see him casting spells, but he actually understood the situation inside!
While he was in shock and doubt, he suddenly heard the "buzzing" sound of swords coming from inside the Hidden Sword Pavilion. The twelve top-quality flying swords seemed to be ready to move!
"I see!"
Yang Kang suddenly realized.
It turns out that the reason why Liang Yan was able to understand the internal situation of the Sutra Pavilion was not based on his spiritual consciousness, but on his swordsmanship!
Now Yang Kang knew that the swordsmanship of the man in front of him had reached an incredible level. Without him having to do anything, the twelve ownerless flying swords in the Hidden Sword Pavilion spontaneously reacted to him!
