"Brother Wang, there's no need for such formalities," Heber Fu said with a smile.
"Alright, without further ado, Wang Yi, you should leave first. If that bastard Su Zhe arrives, it will be troublesome," He Shan waved his hand.
"I will remember today's kindness, Wang Yi is truly grateful," Wang Yi said solemnly, clasping his fists. He then turned and left for Yong City.
"Father, I don't understand. Why did you agree in the end?" Heber Fu asked with a smile, feeling somewhat puzzled. Previously, when he learned that Su Zhe intended to harm Wang Yi, he urged his father to save him, but his father was unwilling. Yet at the last moment, he unexpectedly agreed.
"I see Wang Yi as someone who values loyalty greatly. He is extraordinary; even when faced with the Four Iron Guards' pursuit, he remained unflinching. This shows his resolute spirit. Given time, he may surpass me. Since I owe him a life-saving favor, if I seek his help in the future, he will surely not refuse," He Shan said with bright eyes. "Moreover, Su Zhe has always wanted to swallow my He Family; how could I let him succeed?"
"I see," Heber Fu replied silently. A family’s primary concern is always its interests; without benefits, no one would willingly take on a thankless task.
"Alright, the Yuan Continent lacks talent but needs those with steadfast minds. This can be seen as an investment on my part; whether it yields returns depends on the future," He Shan said.
Yong City.
In the slums.
Wang Yi looked at the dark and weathered door before him and frowned slightly, thinking to himself, "This is it."
Knock knock!
A voice suddenly called out from inside the house: "Who is it?"
"Wang Yi."
A girl dressed in red emerged from the house, holding a red whip. She appeared to be around sixteen or seventeen years old, with eyes like stars and teeth like pearls. Her fair skin and graceful figure were already taking shape. The girl was none other than the headstrong Li Yuyan. Behind her stood a slender man with sharp features; this was Chen Er Gou.
"Greetings, sister," Wang Yi exclaimed joyfully. After entering the house, Wang Yi began to explain matters here but did not mention anything about the Creation Tree or Rong City. Li Yuyan and Chen Er Gou listened in fear and trepidation.
"Did you separate from Niu Meng?" Chen Er Gou, hearing that Wang Yi and Niu Meng were being chased and had to escape separately, asked in astonishment.
Wang Yi nodded, feeling worried and unsure if Niu Meng had managed to escape.
"Wang Yi, don't worry. Niu Meng is a fortunate person; nothing will happen to him," Li Yuyan said quickly, noticing the concern on Wang Yi's face.
"By the way, Brother Chen, where is Big Boss?" Wang Yi looked around the room. Aside from Li Yuyan and Chen Er Gou, it was empty.
"We have no news about our father either," Li Yuyan said sadly. "Chen Er Gou and I have been here for over half a month, but we haven't seen any sign of him." She was already in tears, her face filled with worry, her mood at its lowest point.
"Brother Chen, is that true?" Wang Yi asked urgently, feeling turmoil in his heart. Didn't Zhang Liang escape from Li Kaishan? Why hadn't he come here?
"Sigh, I heard some news a few days ago. All the brothers from Heimu Mountain have been killed by the Chu Family, and Big Boss's whereabouts are unknown," Chen Er Gou said with sadness. "I hope the old master blesses Big Boss and keeps him safe."
Wang Yi was stunned. With Li Kaishan missing, how could he seek revenge for Uncles?
"Wang Yi, what are your plans now? Are you going to stay here or..." Chen Er Gou asked.
Li Yuyan finally calmed down from her sorrow. Since there was still no news of her father being captured, it meant he was still alive. Hearing Chen Er Gou's question, she quickly advised, "Wang Yi, why don't you stay with us and wait for our father?"
"Now that Big Boss's life or death is uncertain and only the three of us remain from Heimu Mountain, it's not feasible!" Chen Er Gou sighed as he saw Wang Yi frowning deeply.
"Sister, why don't you wait at an inn instead of staying here?" Wang Yi asked, changing the subject as he noticed the simplicity of the room. His mind raced; with Li Kaishan's fate uncertain, what should he do?
"We left in a hurry and spent all the silver we brought with us. For now, we can only stay here. Besides, Big Boss left the address here; if we leave and Big Boss comes looking for us, he might not be able to find us," Chen Er Gou said with a bitter smile.
Wang Yi pondered for a moment before taking out a hundred taels of silver from his Storage Bag and placing it on the table. "Sister, take this silver for now!"
"Wang Yi, you..." Li Yuyan was taken aback. Life was difficult now; having this hundred taels would make things much better.
"Wang Yi, Big Boss really didn't misjudge you," Chen Er Gou said joyfully.
After that, Wang Yi decided to wait here for a few months. Li Yuyan and the others knew Wang Yi had made up his mind, so they no longer mentioned the matter. Moreover, now that Heimu Mountain had disappeared, with the trees fallen and the monkeys scattered, what Wang Yi was doing could be considered as having done all he could.
In the blink of an eye, three months passed, and Wang Yi had broken through from the third level to the fifth level.
At this point, Wang Yi decided to leave.
Li Yuyan looked dejected and said, "Wang Yi, have you really decided to leave?"
"I am like a brother to Niu Meng. Now that his life and death are uncertain, I must go find him," Wang Yi said calmly, but his decisive tone left no room for change. However, he had other plans in mind; he intended to return to Kaiyang Sect first and then inquire about Niu Meng and Li Kaishan.
Uncle's Revenge must be safeguarded!
"Big sister, please take this silver! If Big Boss finds this, Wang Yi will surely return," Wang Yi took out three hundred silver coins and placed them all on the table.
"Alright!" Li Yuyan sighed when she saw Wang Yi had made up his mind and no longer tried to persuade him.
Chen Er Gou was moved; Wang Yi had just joined Heimu Mountain and was already facing pursuit. Now he had gone through so much hardship to find this place, showing how much he cared for Big Boss. "Wang Yi, I hope you can find Niu Meng and then come back here. I believe Big Boss is still among us."
Wang Yi nodded heavily and walked out of the room.
On the official road, a Dark Horse galloped past.
The young man was around eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in purple clothes, carrying a long sword on his back. His eyebrows were sharp like swords, and his bright eyes shone like stars. The chiseled features of his face hinted at his boldness; who else could it be but Wang Yi?
"There’s still half an hour until we arrive," Wang Yi looked up at the towering mountains ahead, vast and boundless, murmuring to himself.
After three days of traveling day and night, Wang Yi finally returned to Kaiyang Sect with a sense of urgency in his heart.
A path resembling White Jade Steps extended from the mountain down to the foot of the hill. Wang Yi dismounted and walked toward the Sect.
At that moment, a Purple-Clad Disciple standing on the stone steps looked at Wang Yi and exclaimed, "Brother Wang, you're back?"
Wang Yi turned to see the young man, who was an Inner Sect Disciple, and asked in surprise, "What brings you here, Junior Brother?"
"Brother Chu instructed me to wait here for you for quite some time. Brother Wang, please follow me," the Purple-Clad Disciple nodded.
Wang Yi felt a stir in his heart. "Junior Brother, have you seen Niu Meng?"
"Ah! Senior Brother Niu has already returned and is currently waiting for you inside the sect," the Purple-Clad Disciple quickly explained.
"What? Niu Meng has returned to the sect?" Wang Yi was taken aback and hurriedly stepped forward to inquire. Seeing the Purple-Clad Disciple nod, he rejoiced, "Quick, lead me there." His heart was filled with excitement.
The Purple-Clad Disciple nodded in agreement and led Wang Yi toward the sect.
Inside a room.
"Elder Brother!" Niu Meng paced back and forth in the room, feeling restless while muttering something. Both Chu Yixuan and Lin Chao tried to comfort him. Suddenly, he turned around and saw a familiar figure appear at the door. The troubled expression on his face instantly vanished, replaced by joy.
"Elder Brother, it's so good to see you," Niu Meng spread his arms wide and immediately gave Wang Yi a bear hug, his words overflowing with happiness.
"I'm glad to see you too," Wang Yi said, deeply moved as he nodded.
Having experienced life and death, both Wang Yi and Niu Meng felt a surge of emotions upon their reunion.
"Wang Shidi, I apologize for what happened at Heimu Mountain," Chu Yixuan stepped forward with a gentle yet slightly awkward expression. He bowed respectfully to Wang Yi, speaking sincerely.
"Brother Chu, what is this?" Wang Yi, seeing Chu Yixuan perform such a grand gesture, quickly reached out to help him up.
"Big Brother, I have already informed Brother Chu about the pursuit by the Blood-Clothed Men, but..." Niu Meng's face darkened as he spoke. If it were anyone else, they would have already shouted in anger, but Chu Yixuan was different. Not only had he done a favor for Wang Yi and himself, but he also did not know that the two of them were in Heimu Mountain.
"Haha, Brother Chu need not worry. It's been so long since that incident; I've almost forgotten about it," Wang Yi laughed heartily.
"Brother Wang, rest assured. After I return, I will report this matter to my father and ensure that the leader's head is presented before you," Chu Yixuan said solemnly.
"Alright, that matter is already in the past, and besides, ignorance is no crime," Wang Yi said quickly upon seeing Chu Yixuan's sincerity.
"Brother Wang, regarding Li Kaishan's murder of Uncle, Niu Meng has already informed me. You can rest easy; my father is currently hunting for this person within Xiangzhou Prefecture. Once we capture him, I will present him to you for your disposal," Chu Yixuan stated seriously.
"Bastard! Brother Chu, I will remember your words. When you catch that bastard Li Kaishan, I want to be the first to stab him to avenge Uncle," Niu Meng shouted loudly.
"That goes without saying." Chu Yixuan felt a sense of relief in his heart. During the operation against Heimu Mountain, he truly did not know that Wang Yi and his companion would be involved. Hearing from Niu Meng that they had suffered at the hands of the Chu Family's Blood-Clothed Guards made him sweat with worry. Wang Yi was already showing great potential; given time, he would surely become a strong individual. Such a person should only befriend others and never become an enemy, especially someone as loyal and righteous as Wang Yi. Forming a sincere friendship with him could only bring benefits.
"That's wonderful." Upon hearing this, Wang Yi nodded. With Chu Yixuan's help, finding Li Kaishan would be much easier.
"By the way, Wang Yi, do you plan to participate in the Ranking Jade Tablet this time?" Chu Yixuan asked.
