Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1773: Chapter 1077: Shifting Dynamics

Damn, this old thing really can possess him.

If this old thing had had such thoughts earlier, he wouldn’t be his true self right now.

Jian Changhe realized this layer of truth and sighed helplessly, ”Disciple Jian Changhe greets the ancestor!”

Whether he liked it or not, the Heavenly Sword True Monarch had already shown mercy to him.

”Haha, that’s the spirit! Good disciple!” the Heavenly Sword True Monarch laughed heartily.

”But you better find me a good body next, I truly need one now!”

”A body?” Jian Changhe paused.

”That’s right, a body.”

”Was the previous person’s body not suitable?”

”No, his path has deviated, it’s not suitable for me!”

”What kind of body does the ancestor want?”

”A Golden Core Cultivator would be best, Foundation Establishment Cultivators are also fine, but preferably a Sword Cultivator, if not, someone who practices authentic techniques!”

”Golden Core Cultivators are hard to find, but Foundation Establishment Cultivators are easier!” Jian Changhe said softly.

The Heavenly Sword True Monarch glanced at him, ”Keep your little thoughts to yourself, hmph, I’m your ancestor after all!”

”Uh, ancestor, I don’t have any schemes!”

”You don’t? Are you thinking that after my possession, you’d bully me because my cultivation is low and couldn’t defeat you?” the Heavenly Sword True Monarch said.

Jian Changhe sweated, well, he did indeed have such thoughts.

Now this old thing seemed eerie, he dared not harbor any unusual thoughts, but he felt this old thing would change after possession.

”I won’t bother with you, hurry back, I have many treasures hidden in the mountain!”

”In the mountain?”

”Of course, it’s our Hidden Sword Mountain! Hmph, did you think in three thousand years I’d only leave behind a Green Gold Sword?”

”Oh! Ancestor, my sword!”

”I’ll give you a new one when we return!”

”Thank you, ancestor!”

”By the way, what’s the situation now? Has the battle for power already started?”

”Yes! The Unpredictable Ghost Sect is at war with the Wanhua Demon Court...”

While flying towards Hidden Sword Mountain, Jian Changhe recounted recent events to the Heavenly Sword True Monarch.

...

Three days later, Yang Zhenshan returned to the Life Realm Immortal Palace from the depths of the Void.

He spent three days erasing Ji Wusi’s Divine Soul Silk Thread, a bizarre and extremely troublesome thing, and without the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower and Purify Heaven and Earth Divine Spell, he wouldn’t have known how to deal with it.

When he returned to the Life Realm Immortal Palace, Lin Qihe and the Green Bull Demon King were already waiting for him in the Longevity Hall.

To be precise, Lin Qihe and the Green Bull Demon King had been waiting here since they returned.

They were aware of what had happened in True Yang Immortal City and the crisis faced by Yang Zhenshan and others.

”Mr. Yang! Finally, you’re back!”

Seeing Yang Zhenshan’s return, the Green Bull Demon King immediately greeted him joyfully.

He was quite worried about Yang Zhenshan.

To wait for Yang Zhenshan, he hadn’t returned to Qingniu Palace for three days.

”Are you guys okay!” Yang Zhenshan asked the Green Bull and Lin Qihe.

”We’re okay!” the Green Bull Demon King said.

Lin Qihe shook his head, ”We were very smooth, but over there~~”

He didn’t continue, but Yang Zhenshan understood his meaning.

Yang Zhenshan’s expression turned grim, ”I know, you guys rest first, I’ll deal with the Spirit Source Land matters!”

”Okay, if you need anything, feel free to call us!” Lin Qihe said.

”Hmm!”

After the two left, Yang Zhenshan’s face turned frighteningly dark.

Everything within the Life Realm Immortal Palace couldn’t escape his perception, and the moment he returned, he knew the extent of the losses this time.

He first went to the rear hall of the Longevity Hall to check Yu Qingyi’s condition.

”You’re back!” Yu Qingyi said, showing a relieved look.

Yang Zhenshan nodded and carefully checked her injuries, ”Fortunately, not too serious.”

”I’m okay, go check on the others!” Yu Qingyi was quite relaxed now, her heart was always on edge before, but now she was no longer worried seeing Yang Zhenshan safely back.

”Hmm, you rest, I’ll handle the other matters!” Yang Zhenshan gently said, holding her.

This time the Spirit Source Land suffered dearly, with the newly established Yujing Guard losing more than half, only two of the four Vermilion Bird Cloud Boats returned, and eight of the twenty-four Flame Sun Golden Boats were destroyed.

Three hundred of the thousand Yujing Guards died, all Golden Body Realm Martial Artists, losing more than three hundred at once.

Xuanzhen, Yang Jizhen, and other Foundation Establishment Cultivators were almost all injured, while Li Janning and Li Jian’an were severely wounded and unconscious, nearly losing their lives.

Xia Yunshu dead, Bai Xiaoyun dead, Daqing dead, Jin Mang dead.

Qu Changkong dead, Luo Feiyu dead, Yang Qinghua dead, Yang Qisheng dead, Qu Chengliu dead, Yang Ruoyu dead, Yang Qinzhi dead, Yang Qinfeng dead, Liang Qing’an dead, Lin Yaogzu dead, Song Shi dead, Wang Chengxue dead...

Yet when Yang Zhenshan received the list of the deceased from Yang Chengmao, his expression actually returned to calm.

Among them were his old friends, great-grandchildren, grandchildren, and disciples.

In his lifetime, this was the greatest loss for the Yang family and Spirit Source Land.

Gazing at the familiar and unfamiliar names, Yang Zhenshan squinted his eyes, remaining silent for a long time.

”Grandfather!” Yang Chengmao called softly.

Yang Zhenshan waved his hand, ”Send orders to abandon all external enterprises, keep only the Yang Family Blessed Land, and recall all personnel!”
