Chapter 446: Chapter 446: The Hundred-Year-Old Gate Valve, the Yang Family

Gu Feiyun was taken aback. ”Qiuyu, what do you mean? How is Cheng Yuan a dead man?”

”Have you heard the saying, ’to carry a jade is to commit a crime’?”

”I have, but Cheng Yuan has powerful backing in Dongshan. He’s more than capable of holding onto the Lingxi Health Beverage.”

Yang Qiuyu snorted in contempt. ”Dongshan values scholars over warriors. What little power they have is nothing to the Hundred-Year-Old Noble Families and Thousand-Year-Old Gate Valves.”

Gu Feiyun’s eyes lit up. ”You mean the Ancient Martial Yang Family? But you’re just from a branch family. You lost contact with the main family ages ago.”

”You’re right. Under normal circumstances, I can’t contact the main family, let alone set foot on their grounds. But with this Lingxi Beverage as my way in, I’m certain I can walk right into the Ancient Martial Yang Family with my head held high! Go buy me a few bottles of the Lingxi Health Beverage immediately, then find out everything you can about it!”

”Okay!”

For Gu Feiyun and Yang Qiuyu, it was destined to be a sleepless night.

After a long night of digging, Gu Feiyun finally uncovered Yuanxi Pharmaceutical’s ’core secret’.

”Qiuyu, I found it! There’s a Spiritual Well inside Yuanxi Pharmaceutical. The water in the well is filled with the Essence of Heaven and Earth! That’s why the Lingxi Health Beverage has such a rejuvenating effect.”

”A Spiritual Well, too? HAHAHAHA! Heaven itself wants Cheng Yuan destroyed!”

Yang Qiuyu and Gu Feiyun booked flights and headed straight for Jinling.

The Ancient Martial Yang Family was one of the four great Hundred-Year-Old Gate Valves of Jinling. With a long and storied history, their line continued to this day, wielding power beyond the imagination of ordinary people!

In the bustling heart of Jinling stood an antique-style manor.

Patrol Officers and Martial Artists in training uniforms patrolled the manor’s perimeter, and ordinary people were forbidden from approaching.

About a kilometer from the manor, the pair was stopped by two martial artists in close-fitting attire.

”The area ahead is private property. Please take a detour.”

Yang Qiuyu stated her identity directly. ”I am Yang Qiuyu, daughter of a branch of the Yang Family’s direct line. I have come to the main family on urgent business!”

The two men’s expressions darkened.

’The Ancient Martial Yang Family has a history of several hundred years and dozens of branch families. If a branch family showed up every day, would the main family ever know a moment’s peace?’

”Yang Qiuyu, you should know the rules! Members of a branch family may not return to the main family as they please unless it concerns a matter of great importance that affects the main family.”

Yang Qiuyu declared with immense confidence, ”I have the means to make the Ancient Martial Yang Family dominate the other three Hundred-Year-Old Gate Valves of Jinling and become the city’s one true royal family!”

’What an arrogant woman!’

The two exchanged a look, instantly understanding each other’s thoughts.

’Master Jiu’s influence among the second generation has been waning. If he could help the Ancient Martial Yang Family reclaim the glory of centuries past, perhaps he’d have a chance to become the first-in-line heir of his generation!’

’And eventually, become the head of the Ancient Martial Yang Family!’

’If that happened, their own status as Master Jiu’s followers would rise as well!’

”Yang Qiuyu, come with us. You alone. He will wait here.”

Yang Qiuyu was ecstatic. ”Thank you both.”

Gu Feiyun, however, looked worried. ”Qiuyu...”

”Don’t worry. I may be from a branch family, but I still carry the Yang family blood. I’ll be safe. Just wait for me here.”

Gu Feiyun could only nod.

Led by the two men, Yang Qiuyu finally entered the legendary estate of the main family.

The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within the manor was incredibly dense, almost on par with Villa Number One, which was already protected by a Mountain Protection Array.

Yang Qiuyu’s eyelid suddenly twitched. She felt a boundless amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi pour into her, instantly forcing open all the Meridians in her body!

Yang Qiuyu felt her blood coursing wildly and her body temperature skyrocketing.

CRACK!

Yang Qiuyu clearly felt a shackle within her body shatter!

Her innate aptitude skyrocketed, and two small vortexes of qi even appeared around her.

Yang Qiuyu had always taken good care of herself, appearing like a young woman in her early thirties. Now, nourished by the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, she looked another seven or eight years younger.

She looked almost like a recent college graduate!

The two guards quickly noticed the change, their faces filled with shock and elation!

’We’ve really hit the jackpot this time!’

’This woman actually awakened the ancestral bloodline of the Ancient Martial Yang Family! She’s awakened the Merak King Body!’

’I just wonder what her degree of awakening is.’

The two quickly activated their Cultivation Techniques to mask the energy fluctuations coming from her, terrified that someone else would discover how extraordinary she was.

Soon, the three entered the inner court, stopping at a courtyard near its outer edge.

Judging by its location, the master of this courtyard was a direct descendant of the second generation, but one who wasn’t held in high regard. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be situated so far from the center.

Yang Haotian, known as Old Jiu, was ranked ninth among the second generation of the Ancient Martial Yang Family.

He had eight older siblings, three of whom were exceptionally brilliant and had already reached the threshold of a Half-Step Martial Saint.

And he... was merely at the Martial Emperor Early Stage.

Seeing no hope of becoming the family head, Yang Haotian had given up. He surrounded himself with a flock of beautiful women, passing his days in his small courtyard with song and dance.

His two subordinates entered the courtyard and saw Yang Haotian, blindfolded with gauze, playing hide-and-seek with his bevy of beauties.

”Master Jiu, a woman from a branch family is here to see you.”

”Not now! Can’t you see that I’m busy?”

”Master Jiu, this woman swore she has the means to make the Ancient Martial Yang Family dominate the other three Ancient Martial Clans of Jinling and become a true royal family! You really should see her.”

”Anyone can boast. I can make the Ancient Martial Yang Family dominate every Ancient Martial Clan in the whole Dragon Country and become an eternal Thousand-Year-Old Family! You believe that?”

”Master Jiu... this woman has awakened the Merak King Body. Are you *sure* you don’t want to see her?”

’The Merak King Body?’

Yang Haotian sucked in a sharp breath. Even in the main family, no one had awakened the Merak King Body in over eighty years!

The only person in the Yang Family who currently possessed the Merak King Body was the old family matriarch!

SWISH!

Yang Haotian ripped the black blindfold from his face and said urgently, ”What are you standing around for? Take me to her, now!”

”Yes, sir!”

A moment later, Yang Haotian saw Yang Qiuyu and began to tremble with excitement.

’It really is the Merak King Body!’

Yang Haotian stared at Yang Qiuyu with greedy eyes.

”What is your name? How old are you? Are you married?”

Yang Qiuyu felt a bit uncomfortable under his gaze, but she didn’t lower her head, meeting his eyes bravely.

”Master Jiu, my name is Yang Qiuyu. I am forty-three years old. I married twenty years ago and have a son.”

Yang Haotian was a little disappointed.

’He didn’t really mind her age; after all, he was over forty himself.’

’But the fact that she had a son was somewhat vexing.’

’Oh well.’

’To encounter someone with the Merak King Body was a blessing from the heavens. How could he possibly expect her to be a maiden as well?’

”Yang Qiuyu, it doesn’t matter what you want from me, I’ll make it happen. I have only one condition: divorce your husband and marry me! I’ll make you my principal wife. If you asked for the moon in the sky, I would pluck it down for you!!”
