Chapter 1216: Not As Simple As It Seems
Chunyu Tianxing had never thought that the son he had pampered so much would one day end up being a servant for a total of 10,000 years.
He had done everything he could as a father to dote on and care for his youngest son. Of course, if this young master wasn’t the favorite son of Chunyu Tianxing, the martialists of the Chunyu Family would never have dared charge toward the Luo household.
Now, Yuan Sage Shending’s words meant that the decision was no longer up to Chunyu Tianxing!
The youngest son of the Chunyu household was an intelligent boy as well. When he heard that he would be the servant of the Luo Family for 10,000 years, his entire face turned pale.
At that moment, he looked at his father with a pitiful expression on his face.
As much as Chuyu Tianxing felt for his son, he was simply not in the mood to get involved in this situation. “I will support this decision of yours, Uncle-Master.”
“Are the rest of you here to watch the show?” Yuan Sage Shending addressed Earth Jigong and the others.
Even though Earth Jigong was a peak Yuan Monarch, he did not dare offend Yuan Sage Shending.
They would be completely defenseless if Yuan Sage Shending decided to take action against them. They couldn’t leave hastily either, as Yuan Sage Shending had not given them the green light to do so.
Now that Yuan Sage Shending had spoken, they all heaved a big sigh of relief.
“Lord Yuan Sage, we will leave right this instant!” Earth Jigong replied hastily as he disappeared into the sky.
Yue Hongxian and the other people who had been invited over by Chunyu Tianxing delayed no further and disappeared as well.
Chunyu Tianxing knew that even though he would still be friends with those people, it would not be easy to request future favors from them.
Yuan Sage Shending didn’t think much of Yue Hongxian or any of the others. A Xiantian Taiyi Yuan Venerate could easily be groomed by him.
“Yunyang, you may come visit anytime in the future when Chong’er follows me to the Shending Realm for training,” Yuan Sage Shending told Luo Yuanyang warmly.
Even though Luo Yunyang remained extremely guarded against Yuan Sage Shending, he had to listen and follow him. After all, he was no match for him in terms of strength at that moment.
“Thank you, Yuan Sage!” Luo Yunyang replied as he turned toward his son. Although he could not guess why Yuan Sage Shending would choose his son as a disciple, he felt that he would not try to harm his son in any way before he grew up.
After all, he had publicly acknowledged Luo Shaocong as his disciple in front of so many people.
“Chong’er, you need to take your training seriously and listen to Yuan Sage when you get to the Shending Realm. This is a priceless opportunity. Do not disappoint the Yuan Sage, or I will punish you!”
Luo Yunyang’s tone was firm as he said all this. “Father, rest assured. I will do my best not to disappoint you,” Shaocong replied in a slightly shaky voice.
“Chong’er is naturally gifted and witty. Under my tutelage, he should be able to attain the Taichu Yuan Venerate status within ten years.” Yuan Sage Shending smiled.
“If you are lucky, the next time the two of you meet, you will be two Xiantian Taiyi Yuan Venerates.”
It was hard to imagine the training intensity required to groom a Xiantian Taiyi Yuan Venerate within a span of ten years.
Several martialists from the Chunyu household looked enviously at Luo Shaocong. A burning question they had was how such a priceless opportunity had ended up going to the boy instead of them.
“Chunyu Tianxing, I will hold you accountable for anything that happens to Luo Yunyang in the future, good or bad. Do you understand?” Yuan Sage Shending said as he held Luo Shaocong’s hand and got ready to depart.
Chunyu Tianxing’s expression was extremely sullen. Being responsible for whatever happened to Luo Yunyang was definitely not a good thing.
He wanted very much to retort. However, upon thinking of the temperamental mood swings of Yuan Sage Shending, he decided otherwise.
He would definitely end up losing his life if he did.
“Rest assured, Uncle-Master. I will do my best to strengthen my relations with Young Brother Luo Yunyang in the future!” Chunyu Tianxing replied hastily.
“Very well!” Yuan Sage Shending said as he disappeared along with Luo Shaocong.
The young son of the Chunyu household looked on hopefully as the two of them disappeared. However, just as he was hoping to escape from the predicament he was in, a pair of large hands grabbed him and he also disappeared into the sky.
“My son!” A beautiful woman wailed as the young child disappeared into thin air.
“Our son is fortunate to be able to serve the disciple of Yuan Sage Shending. Men, take this ignorant woman away and lock her in isolation for ten years so she can reflect on her actions,” Chunyu Tianxing said furiously as he looked at the crying lady.
This lady had enjoyed a good status in the Chunyu household, as she had given birth to a son for Chunyu Tianxing. However, under his orders, she was dragged out mercilessly as well.
Luo Yunyang was in no mood to try to cause trouble for the Chunyu household. What he needed to do most was try to figure out what Yuan Sage Shending was up to.
“Younger Brother Yunyang, please excuse me for not seeing you out,” Chunyu Tianxing said solemnly as he saw Luo Yunyang getting ready to depart.
The fact that someone of Chunyu Tianxing’s status was acknowledging Luo Yunyang as his younger brother showed a great deal of respect. Even though Luo Yunyang had no intention of going against Chunyu Tianxing, he also had no intention of getting close to him.
“Do you have anything for me?”
Chunyu Tianxing nearly choked upon hearing Luo Yunyang’s reply. Given their difference in status, he would never have expected Luo Yunyang to reply in such a casual manner. Luo Yunyang’s reply gave him a strong urge to kill him right that instant.
Unfortunately, given the situation, he had no choice but to comply. Luo Yunyang, who now had such a strong backer, was no longer inferior to him.
After all, Yuan Sage Shending only had one disciple and that was Luo Shaocong. Meanwhile, although Chunyu Tianxing might be an eldest senior brother, his master had over 1,000 other disciples. Even though he was considered the most senior brother and he enjoyed many privileges, he still couldn’t compare to the status a sole disciple enjoyed.
That was why he had to try to let go of whatever disagreements he had with Luo Yunyang.
“Brother Yunyang, I agree that the Chunyu household may have mishandled this matter. Rest assured, I will severely punish those ignorant fools. I hope that you will allow me as a senior brother to make amendments to the situation now that we are on the same side,” he said.
Luo Yunyang knew very well that this cordial tone was used by Chunyu Tianxing because Yuan Sage Shending had already accepted his son as a disciple.
“Weren’t you completely authoritarian earlier? Now, you are saying that everything was a misunderstanding. Aren’t these changes happening too quickly? Isn’t this a little insincere?”
An overwhelmingly murderous intent overcame Chunyu Tianxing. Even though he had swallowed his pride before, the current situation was a first for him. “Younger Brother Yunyang, should we have a discussion about this?” he replied with a deep breath.
“Rest assured, my apology is definitely sincere!”
Luo Yunyang was not too concerned about Chunyu Tianxing’s sincerity. After nodding his head, he turned and left.
“Luo Yunyang is insolent indeed. He got into the Taixu Sect with the support of his father and adopted that lofty attitude. Now that his son has been accepted by Yuan Sage Shending as a disciple, who knows how much more arrogant he is going to become!”
“How dare he...” The Chuyu Family martialist who was saying all this was interrupted when a heavy slap landed on his face. Chunyu Tianxing had slapped him!
“Remember, never say another bad thing about Luo Yunyang in front of me, or you will end up just like him.”
Chunyu Tianxing glanced at the comrades who were standing around him. As a martialist who had just been slapped, he seemed to be in a sorry state.
“Looks like I have to foster a better relationship with Luo Yunyang now.” Chunyu Tianxing muttered to himself after the rest of the martialists took their leave.
“At the very least, I have to make amendments for this situation.”
As he was wondering about the various options he had to make amendments, Luo Yunyang had already returned to his cave abode and was deep in thought.
Being in the Vast Sky Sacred Realm was completely different from being in the 36 Great Cosmoses. Even though he was not near the top in the Vast Sky Sacred Realm, he could decide whether he wanted to take an aggressive or passive stance.
However, the fact that his son had been accepted as a disciple by Yuan Sage Shending had astonished him.
It was only then that he realized that the Vast Sky Sacred Realm was not as peaceful as he had imagined it to be. At the very least, he did not have the strength to maintain this peace.
The trouble with Yuan Sage Shending alone was enough to render him helpless!
In his opinion, Yuan Sage Shending wasn’t being straightforward about accepting his son as a disciple.
Based on Luo Yunyang’s understanding, Yuan Sage Shending had never accepted any disciples all these years despite how talented and gifted the people that sought him out were.
To him, the most important person was still himself.
Why would he accept Luo Yunyang’s son as a disciple this time then? Could it actually be because Chong’er was really talented?
Luo Yunyang genuinely hoped so, but he had a strong nagging feeling that things were not as simple as they seemed.
If Yuan Sage Shending had a plan, it would definitely not be an ordinary plan!
