Becoming a true immortal through my descendents' praying-Chapter 223 - 221 The Way to School for Yang Qiang and Yang Qiangyou
Chapter 223: Chapter 221 The Way to School for Yang Qiang and Yang Qiangyou
“Don’t talk nonsense, Leng Li will always be one of us; she simply has high talent and wants to pursue a higher realm. There’s nothing wrong with that.”
“Hmph~”
Shen Yao responded with a cold snort.
Yang Fu said this, but in fact he already knew… Leng Li coming with him was a transaction from the start. He gave her an opportunity to pursue a higher realm and a better environment, in exchange for her becoming his wife and having children with him.
Now, Yang Qiang is already 4 years old, healthy and extremely talented.
This year, Leng Li told Yang Fu that she wanted to enter the world for Immortal Cultivation. Yang Fu did not stop her and gave her many life-saving tricks.
With the strength of the Foundation Establishment Stage, she shouldn’t have many problems protecting herself.
Yang Fu knew that Leng Li couldn’t be tied down, so he simply let her pursue her own Immortal Path.
“Have Qiang’er and You’er been behaving lately?”
“Behaving? They just teamed up today to pluck 100 stalks of Spiritual Medicine from our place! I swear I could spank those brats a hundred times a day. Husband, doesn’t your family have that ancestral ‘Lightning Hundred Whips’? Teach it to me; I’ll whip them a few times and they’ll straighten out!”
The slaves who were picking Spiritual Medicine shuddered subconsciously, picking with even greater urgency.
Shen Yao’s face showed she was grinding her teeth, clearly the two children gave her no peace.
“Hahaha~ Don’t be angry with the children; I have a way…”
“Oh?”
Yang Qiang and Yang Qiangyou, two chubby boys, were running around and playing in the residence, clearly having a blast.
“Cough, cough!”
Hearing Yang Fu’s cough, Yang Qiang and Yang Qiangyou gave a glance and then ran over, covered in mud.
In an effort to run faster, Yang Qiang even produced little sparks beneath his feet.

He crashed into Yang Fu’s legs.
“Dad! You’re back, come play with us!”
Yang Qiang has now reached the second layer of the Fetal Breathing Stage without any cultivation, just advancing on his own, whereas Yang Qiangyou had just reached the Fetal Breathing Stage, entering into cultivation a year later than Yang Qiang.
Yang Qiang, with exceptional talent, was graced with small thunder clouds upon reaching the Fetal Breathing Stage; but they only produced a soft electrical shock, like a tickle, making Yang Qiang grow stronger and stronger.
And Yang Qiangyou… he was digging out from his pocket a sparkling, translucent Mid Grade Spirit Stone, with Spiritual Energy inside like a dense white fog.
“Dad, this is for you, so you’ll stay with us a few extra days.”
“Eh? Did Mom give this to you?”
“No, I found it in the lake today. Uncle Baji said it might have been washed down from upstream…”
“This…”
Yang Fu was both laughing and crying; a single Mid Grade Spirit Stone was worth a thousand Low Grade Spirit Stones and could be exchanged for 20,000 jin of Spiritual Grain, enough to feed a cultivator for many years.
In his childhood, even for the Yang Family, this would have represented an incredibly valuable fortune.
He hadn’t expected Yang Qiangyou to casually find one… and it wasn’t the first time either.
The habit of Yang Qiangyou picking Spirit Stones had been going on for quite some time, with this being the largest haul to date.
“Dad will save it for you, for when you grow up…”
“Mhm!”
Yang Qiangyou agreed innocently.
After playing with the children for a while, Yang Fu asked:
“Do you want even more little friends to play with?”
“Yes!” The two children answered in unison.
“Then Dad will take you to a fun place…”
To the east of Silver Brocade Lake were the residences of the Zhao Family and the Qian Family.
The three families were positioned in a triangle at the edge of the territory governed by Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect, forming a natural alliance from a geopolitics standpoint.
From the interactions over the past few years, the Zhao and Qian Families have indeed been quite friendly to them, never lacking in daily courtesies.
But this was the first time Yang Fu was visiting the Zhao Family.
Yang Fu, Shen Yao, and Baji, along with the little fellows Yang Qiang and Yang Qiangyou.
“Please announce that the Yang Family Master of Silver Brocade Lake has come to visit Zhao Family Master.”
“The Yang Family!?”
Upon hearing this, the gatekeeper immediately straightened up and said politely, “Yang Family Master, please wait a moment; I will return shortly!”
The flustered state of the gatekeeper made Yang Fu somewhat curious.
“Wife, do the few of us… look like ferocious evil spirits?”
“Not at all, my child is so adorable.”
With a grim face, Baji interjected, “Family Master, if they dare to speak rudely, do you want me to teach them a lesson?”
“That shouldn’t be necessary…”
Baji was now the head of security for the Yang Family, usually protecting the Silver Brocade Lake estate and occasionally assisting Yang Fu and Yang Fushuo with tasks outside. He was living quite comfortably.
The Yang Family treated him as both a friend and subordinate, not as a slave, and they provided him with Elixirs and Spirit Stones for cultivation. Baji was very grateful, so he had always been dedicated to his work.
On the long Immortal Cultivation Path, his 30 years of serving the Yang Family would pass quickly, and afterwards, they would still be friends.
As they waited, the Zhao Family was in a frenzy!
“What? He’s here? How many people did he bring? Have the Jin Family arrived? Are we surrounded?”
Zhao Wuyin fired off questions rapid-fire, rendering his subordinates speechless.
“Uhm… The Yang Family came with just 3 adults and 2 children.”
“Phew~ With children in tow, it seems they are not here to target our Zhao Family.”
“We mustn’t be careless; what if there’s another scheme?”
“Caution is best, as the Yang Family and the Jin Family are now in cahoots; we are not their match by any stretch.”
The Zhao Family, having been bullied by the Jin Family for so many years, didn’t dare to resist anymore.
Last year, seeing the Yang Family not only avoid the Jin Family’s bullying but also have a Jin Family elder come and apologize, suggested a fearsome power behind them.
Later, rumors of cooperation between the Jin Family and the Yang Family spread, making it clear they were beyond the means of smaller families like theirs to compete with.
Thus to the Zhao Family, even if the Yang Family weren’t many in number, they were still a behemoth!
After observing in secret for a while and finding nothing unusual—merely Yang Fushuo and his wife with their two children and a bodyguard—it left Zhao Wuyin quite puzzled.
“What on earth are they here for?”
Out of politeness, he led a group from the Zhao Family out to receive them.
“Hahaha~ Master Yang, I’ve long admired you! I’ve heard so much about your elegance and have been meaning to visit, never expecting you to come to our humble place.”
“Master Zhao is too kind. I’m usually so busy managing the Spirit Pavilion at the sect that I can’t find the time, otherwise I would have visited sooner…”
“Ah~ As an Inner Sect Disciple, you are naturally different…”
Managing the Spirit Pavilion? Could it be he has also taken up a managerial role?
Zhao Wuyin was somewhat curious, but he remained politely complimentary.
After exchanging pleasantries, they got down to business.
“I wonder, is there anything that brings Master Yang to us, anything I can assist with? Please do tell; we’re neighbors, so helping each other is fundamental!”
“There is indeed one thing…”
As expected!
The Zhao Family members exchanged glances; the real negotiation was beginning.
All that was said before was just idle chatter; no one visits without a reason, so there must be a request.
However, if the request wasn’t too great, they would have to accommodate; they could not afford to make an enemy of a family with such an imposing influence behind them, with the example of the Guo Family right before their eyes.
“Please speak…”
“I’ve heard that the Zhao and Qian Families’ children all study at the school, with teachers who are knowledgeable in astronomy and geography—truly erudite scholars. My two children… would it be possible for them to attend the school too?”
“Ah?”
The Zhao Family was shocked.
They want to study at our school?
Just that?
Is it worth the head of the family coming in person?
If you’d sent your housekeeper over to mention it, who would dare not let your children come?
We’d have to take good care of them, fearing they might face any slight…
At this time, the Zhao Family members took a good look at the two children.
When they saw Yang Qiangyou, everyone’s eyes lit up.
“What a handsome young lad! He’s certain to be an unrivaled cultivator in the future, captivating the hearts of countless female cultivators!”
“Naturally born for the Immortal Path, truly rare in this life!”
“Could we arrange a marriage between him and my daughter?”
Then they looked at the sturdy Yang Qiang.
“This child… he’s very solidly built.”
The Yang Family members, used to the sight, felt nothing much; Yang Fu thought his children were as handsome as he was, but to outsiders, Yang Qiangyou’s charm was clearly superior to his peers.
“Master Zhao? Is it convenient?”
Yang Fu asked again.
“Convenient! Very convenient! Having Master Yang’s children at our school would be an honor for us—I’ll make sure the teachers provide them with excellent tutelage!”
Zhao Wuyin quickly said.
At that moment, him, a cultivator in the Seventh Layer of Foundation Establishment, didn’t display any seniority before Yang Fu, a Qi Cultivator in the Seventh Layer, being overly polite.
“If that’s settled, then it’s decided. Tomorrow, I’ll have Baji bring the two children over for classes.”
“No problem.”
“Later… our three families should also exchange more in the future.”
“Indeed, indeed.”
After the Yang family left, the Zhao Family called the Qian Family to meet together.
They analyzed Yang Fu’s purpose and the implications behind every sentence he uttered.
After lengthy discussion, the two families arrived at a conclusion.
“Sending the children to the school is a ruse; the true intent is to signal a friendly gesture to both our Zhao and Qian Families, indicating that our three families, belonging to the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect, share one heart!”
“Indeed… the Yang Family has noticed our apprehension toward them and has come to reassure us.”
“That’s how the Yang Family operates, so thorough and discreet in their actions—possessing strength without flaunting it, instead building alliances with all the powerful factions. No wonder even the Jin Family treats them with respect.”
Meanwhile, Yang Fu breathed a sigh of relief upon returning.
“Son, now that you’re going to the school, your mother won’t think about punishing you… You should thank your father.”
The next day.
Yang Qiang and Yang Qiangyou were escorted by a group of adults to the school, thus beginning their academic journey.
As time swiftly flowed, the third generation of the Yang Family also grew rapidly…
