I Break through Crazily

’Could this Tang Yi be a powerful Demon Beast in disguise?’

’How is his aura more astonishing than that of a Martial Artist who has cultivated for years?’

’How could a person like this be unable to cultivate?’

Zhu Yan was so shocked by Tang Yi’s aura that he couldn’t help but question everything.

”What’s wrong?” Tang Haotian asked when he saw the astonished look on Zhu Yan’s face.

”N-no... It’s nothing.”

Snapping back to his senses, Zhu Yan quickly averted his gaze, though doubts still lingered in his mind.

Seeing Zhu Yan lose his composure, Tang Haotian glanced at Tang Yi and immediately understood. He couldn’t help but smile smugly to himself.

’Tang Yi is so powerful now. His aura has completely transformed, and he exudes a terrifying presence. With an aura like this, anyone would be astonished by him after just one glance.’

Having such a son made Tang Haotian feel extremely satisfied and proud.

Thinking of the one who was far away, Tang Haotian’s heart filled with even more confidence. ’See?’ he thought. ’Our son has become so powerful. One day, he’ll definitely bring you back.’

”Father, you called us here for...?” Seeing both Tang Haotian and Zhu Yan spaced out, Tang Yi found it amusing and decided to ask.

”Oh, right. Look at me. An old man like me is always spacing out. I forgot to tell you,” Tang Haotian said with a smile. ”It’s like this: the Chief Examiner for Fengyue City wants to see Piaomiao, so he asked Master Zhu to bring him over. I’d like you, Yi’Er, to accompany Piaomiao and see a bit of the world.”

”He wants to see Piaomiao? The Chief Examiner?” Tang Yi was taken aback.

’Isn’t the Chief Examiner for Fengyue City this time Wang Zongyao?’

’Why would he want to see Piaomiao?’

”See me?” Tang Piaomiao was also stunned for a moment. He didn’t know any chief examiner and had no idea why this Lord Chief Examiner would want to see him.

”Alright, there’s no use overthinking it. Just go since you’ve been asked,” Tang Haotian said, interrupting the wild thoughts of both Tang Yi and Tang Piaomiao.

Just then, Zhu Yan also came to his senses and said, ”Since everyone is here, let’s not waste any more time. We should head over now. Senior Brother Wang has probably been waiting for a while.”

The three members of the Tang Family agreed.

Afterward, Tang Yi and Tang Piaomiao followed Zhu Yan to the West Mansion’s residence.

After many twists and turns, they finally arrived at the mansion where Wang Zongyao was staying.

When Zhu Yan brought Tang Yi and Tang Piaomiao over, a delighted expression appeared in Wang Zongyao’s eyes the moment he saw Tang Yi. They hadn’t seen each other in a few days, and he felt that Tang Yi had grown even more handsome.

When Wang Zongyao first met Tang Yi, Tang Yi had just returned from the Wind Moon Forest, covered in dust and looking quite disheveled. Now, having washed up and changed his clothes, he looked like a completely different person, not just in terms of his aura.

To make a comparison, the Tang Yi who returned from the Wind Moon Forest had seemed like a talented but simple youth. Now, however, he was like a true young master from a Noble Family. Not only was his aura extraordinary, but he was also very handsome and immensely likable.

”Senior Brother Wang, I’ve brought Tang Piaomiao for you,” Zhu Yan said respectfully. He then gave Tang Yi a deep look and added, ”As for this one, his name is Tang Yi. He is here to accompany Piaomiao, as Piaomiao is still quite young.”

”Hm?”

Hearing this, Wang Zongyao was taken aback. ’What the hell?’ he thought.

’I clearly asked to see Tang Yi. Bringing along some other youth named Tang Piaomiao is one thing, but how did Tang Yi get relegated to being the chaperone?’

Before Wang Zongyao could ask, Tang Yi shot him a meaningful look and said respectfully, ”Tang Yi greets Lord Wang.”

Tang Yi acted as if he was meeting Wang Zongyao for the very first time.

Beside him, Tang Piaomiao saw Tang Yi bow and immediately followed suit. ”Tang Piaomiao greets Lord Wang.”

”Er.”

Wang Zongyao glanced at Tang Yi and Tang Piaomiao, thought for a moment, and wondered to himself, ’Did Zhu Yan get the wrong person?’

He couldn’t discern Tang Yi’s Level at the moment, but he could see Tang Piaomiao’s Level with a single glance.

This Tang Piaomiao appeared even younger than Tang Yi, yet he was already a Nine-star Battle Master. To possess such strength at his age truly marked him as a promising young talent.

But...

’How could this possibly compare to Tang Yi?’

’Even if Tang Piaomiao reached Tang Yi’s age, he wouldn’t necessarily be able to achieve Tang Yi’s terrifying level of strength!’

’If Tang Piaomiao could be considered to be at the One-star Genius Level, then Tang Yi would be a Ten-Star Genius, or even a Twenty-Star genius. The two of them were worlds apart—completely incomparable.’

’Could it be that Zhu Yan doesn’t know Tang Yi’s true strength?’

Although confused, Minister of Agriculture Wang Zongyao saw the look Tang Yi gave him and knew it wasn’t appropriate to clarify things in front of Zhu Yan. He could only say, ”Junior Brother Zhu, you may leave us for now. Let me have a good chat with these two promising young talents.”

”Yes, Senior Brother Wang. I will take my leave then,” Zhu Yan said respectfully. He then gave Tang Yi another deep look, furrowed his brow, and finally bowed and withdrew.

”Alright, what’s going on? Can you tell me now, Tang Yi?” Wang Zongyao asked with a smile, looking at Tang Yi once Zhu Yan had left.

”Uncle Wang, were you looking for me, or for my younger brother, Piaomiao?” Tang Yi didn’t answer directly, instead asking a question of his own with a smile.

”Of course I was looking for you! We haven’t seen each other in days, and you’ve gotten even more handsome, Tang Yi, hehe.” With no outsiders present, Wang Zongyao dropped his superior demeanor and became much more casual, chatting amiably with Tang Yi.

Seeing how familiar Tang Yi and Wang Zongyao seemed, Tang Piaomiao, who was standing to the side, was completely bewildered. ’How did those two get so chummy?’ he wondered. ’And wasn’t Lord Wang looking for me? Why is he suddenly looking for Brother Yi?’

However, he couldn’t get a word in edgewise during their conversation, nor did he dare to interrupt.

”Thank you for the compliment, Uncle Wang,” Tang Yi said with a smile. ”I figured you were looking for me, but it seems Master Zhu got the wrong person.”

”Ah, well, that’s my fault for not being clear,” Wang Zongyao said with a laugh. ”And that Zhu Yan is so impetuous. He just rushes off without getting the details. I just said I was looking for the talented youth from the Tang Family, and I assumed he’d know who I meant. Now it’s turned into a huge mix-up.”

”That explains it,” Tang Yi said. ”Because I couldn’t cultivate in the past, no one outside the Tang Family knows about my current strength. So when you mentioned a ’talented youth,’ Uncle Wang, Master Zhu naturally didn’t think of me and assumed you meant my younger brother.”

”No wonder...” Wang Zongyao pointed at Tang Yi with an expression that screamed, ’You little rascal!’ ”You’re really keeping a low profile, Tang Yi!” he said, then added, ”So this must be your younger brother, Tang Piaomiao. To have the strength of a Nine-star Battle Master at his age is quite impressive. But compared to you, he’s still a long way off.”

Hearing this, Tang Yi’s expression deliberately grew stern. ”Uncle Wang, I can’t say I’m happy to hear that,” he said, displeased. ”He is my younger brother, after all.”

”HAHAHA.” Wang Zongyao roared with laughter and quickly explained, ”I didn’t mean anything by it. Piaomiao’s strength can’t compare to yours, but compared to the other disciples from the Noble Families, he’s more than outstanding. You are both great talents, great talents.”
