Originally, Long Chen had decided to pay a visit to the Yang family after obtaining the Saints' Fruit. Now that Yang Dingtian was leading the way, it was perfect.
However, before that, Long Chen could make use of his identity.
He believed that it would be a great surprise for Yang Dingtian.
They flew along the way.
Yang Dingtian's expression was still very cold. Long Chen looked at him and suddenly said, "Ling Qing … is she well?"
The three of them were shocked and looked at Long Chen strangely. Yang Dingtian asked, "You know Yang Lingqing from the Yang family?"
Long Chen studied Yang Dingtian for a while and suddenly smiled. "Of course I know her. We grew up together."
Yang Dingtian was baffled and asked, "What do you mean?"
Long Chen said straightforwardly, "I'm thinking about what I should call you. Great grandfather or great grandfather or something like that."
Long Chen was very satisfied when he saw the surprise in the three's eyes. "Ling Qing's father has a younger sister. She's my mother. We were born in the same year, month, and day. I was born in the hour of dawn, and she was born in the hour of dusk. Do you understand?"
In reality, Long Chen had never admitted that he had any relationship with Yang Dingtian. The only reason he said it in such a tone was to get close to Yang Lingqing.
That was probably the only way he could have a free identity in the Yang family and come and go as he pleased.
Otherwise, it was very likely that he would be sent out of the Devil World of Yin as soon as he arrived at the Yang family.
For Ling Qing, he had to admit that he didn't recognize an ancestor. This was a price he should pay.
"How is that possible?"
Yang Dingtian's expression changed drastically. He stared blankly at Long Chen for a while before shaking his head. "Brat, you're joking with me."
Firstly, Long Chen came from the True Martial Emperor Palace. Secondly, Yang Dingtian knew what was going on with Yang Lingqing. In the past, Yang Dingtian had personally thrown a son into that small place. He didn't expect that after a few generations, a rare Great Yin Devil Physique would appear. To Yang Dingtian, this was simply a joke of fate.
As for Long Chen, he definitely had a high position in the Imperial Palace. He had two experts who were almost as powerful as Yang Dingtian as his subordinates. His own strength was very vague, but he was able to defeat two Divine Martial Arts Realm experts at the seventh tier of the Divine Martial Arts Realm. Moreover, he was in his twenties. This was already enough to determine the level of a genius. Yang Dingtian didn't believe that an abandoned pawn could have two such terrifying descendants.
Seeing that Yang Dingtian clearly didn't believe him, Long Chen sneered and said, "Sure enough, you still don't believe me. But when you see Ling Qing, you'll understand. The child you abandoned in the Myriad Kingdom Domain isn't a waste. It's just that his physique is a bit special. It's this special physique that created me and Ling Qing. If Ling Qing can come to the Three Regions and Nine Realms, so can I."
Yang Dingtian didn't expect that Long Chen even knew the Yang family's secret. But he soon understood that this might have been told by Li Xuanji …
At this moment, Yang Dingtian was very confused.
He looked at Long Chen with a gloomy expression.
"I know what you're wondering. I do have an extraordinary father, far beyond your imagination. But with your identity, you can't spy on his existence," said Long Chen proudly.
He was fooling Yang Dingtian.
Long Chen believed that Yang Dingtian must have thought that he had a top-notch backer in the True Martial Emperor Palace. Therefore, he added fuel to the fire and made Yang Dingtian's conjecture the truth.
"Every disciple of my Yang family must have the Yin Devil Physique. But you don't have any aura on you. How can I believe you?" Yang Dingtian said doubtfully.
"So that's the problem. In our clan, besides Ling Qing, no one else possesses the Yin Demon Body that you speak of. Back then, wasn't it precisely because of this that you abandoned an abandoned child?" Long Chen asked.
Seeing that Yang Dingtian didn't reply, he continued, "Moreover, with my father's inheritance, your Yin Devil Physique is nothing. My inheritance comes from my father."
This was Long Chen's psychological tactic. It wouldn't be possible to play this trick with an old demon without cultivation. But with Han Yunxing and Nangong Lie, Long Chen could turn false into reality.
Yang Dingtian and the other two exchanged glances. At this moment, Yang Dingtian suddenly extended his hand and felt for Long Chen's pulse. After a while, his face was filled with shock. "There is indeed my Yang family's inherited physique. It's just that it's suppressed to the point where it's almost invisible. What kind of bloodline is this …"
It was a powerful ancient bloodline. It was the bloodline of a dragon. However, it was concealed by the Primordial Blood Spiritual Dragon, so Yang Dingtian couldn't sense it. The only thing he felt was that it was terrifying.
Long Chen waved his hand and didn't say anything.
He sent two pieces of information to Yang Dingtian.
One: He is Yang Lingqing's cousin.
Two: His father's bloodline is very terrifying.
These two pieces of information were enough to stun Yang Dingtian.
It was already a surprise that Yang Lingqing appeared. He didn't expect a powerful figure from the Thearch Palace to have an affair with a descendant of Yang Dingtian …
This was too unbelievable.
But the truth was placed in front of Yang Dingtian, so he had to believe it.
"Let me ask you a few questions."
Yang Dingtian took a deep breath and asked a few questions about Yang Lingqing. Long Chen could answer them easily. There were some questions that even Yang Dingtian didn't know, but Long Chen could answer them fluently.
"You don't have to wonder anymore. Let me take a look at Ling Qing when we return to the Yang family." Long Chen waved his hand and said indifferently.
He had always been arrogant in front of Yang Dingtian.
This strengthened Yang Dingtian's impression of Long Chen's father.
At the mention of Yang Lingqing, Yang Dingtian's expression turned a little strange. He waved his hand and said, "Ling Qing is in seclusion. Don't disturb her for the time being."
Long Chen knew it would be like this. He narrowed his eyes and said, "I haven't seen her for so many years. I really miss her. In that case, I will stay in the Yang family until she comes out of seclusion. I can be considered half a member of the Yang family. Although I'm a member of the True Martial Emperor Palace now, the Patriarch won't stop me from staying in the Yang family, right?"
Long Chen's overbearing attitude made Yang Dingtian hesitate.
He went silent for a moment and suddenly smiled. At this moment, he held onto Long Chen's arm and looked at Long Chen with some emotions. "Although I can't confirm that you are Ling Qing's cousin, no matter what, you have the bloodline of my Yang family. You might even be my direct descendant. The doors of the Yang family will always be open for you."
"It's enough with the Patriarch's words." Long Chen smiled indifferently.
Although he didn't dispel Yang Dingtian's guard, he would at least have an identity in the Yang family with these words.
For the sake of Yang Lingqing, Long Chen wasn't afraid.
Therefore, following Yang Dingtian, the four of them quickly headed towards the Yang family's residence. That was the Profound Yin Devil Domain, Sun Moon City.
Sun Moon City was located close to the Netherworld Demon Realm. With Yang Dingtian's speed, it took him less than ten days to reach the Netherworld Demon Realm.
On the way, Long Chen was on guard, but he pretended to be close to Yang Dingtian and chatted with him. As the conversation went on, Long Chen talked about his childhood with Yang Lingqing, the layout of Baiyang Town and so on. Many things couldn't be fabricated. Therefore, after ten days, Yang Dingtian didn't have any doubts in his heart. Long Chen's identity was Yang Dingtian's descendant. He was also the most powerful figure in the current younger generation of the Yang family and Yang Lingqing's cousin.
Of course, Yang Dingtian had countless descendants. Because the age gap between each generation in Baiyang Town was too small, there were more than ten generations between Yang Dingtian and Yang Dingtian. Yang Dingtian had thousands of direct descendants. If Long Chen really came to the Yang family, his status wouldn't be very high.
"Closed-Door training …" During this period, Yang Dingtian would vaguely cover up the matter of Yang Lingqing. The more he tried to cover it up, the more suspicious Long Chen was about it. Almost at this time, he was sure that Yang Lingqing was regarded as a target of the Soul Integration Dao.
Han Yunxing and Nangong Lie were under house arrest in the Yang family. Long Chen had to meet with them as soon as possible and think about what to do.
Li Xuanji was recovering, so Long Chen could try his best to solve the matter of Yang Lingqing. This was probably going against the entire senior management of the Yang family.
In these days, Long Chen roughly learned the overall structure of the Yang family from Yang Dingtian.
The warriors of the Yang family were almost all over the Xuanyin Devil Domain. Generally, warriors over a thousand years old would be assigned to various cities in the Xuanyin Devil Domain if they didn't have outstanding achievements, to maintain law and order and obtain resources for the family. Therefore, the disciples of the Yang family in Sun Moon City were either young warriors under a thousand years old or experts of the older generation.
Among them, the Yang family was divided into three branches.
Yang Dingtian was in the imperial clan, which had the same number of people as the other two branches. Yang Kui and Yin Mei were Yang Dingtian's direct subordinates. In the imperial clan, there were three warriors at the Exceptional Lv 9 of the God Martial Arts Realm, while the other two branches were branch families, each led by a warrior at the Exceptional Lv 9 of the God Martial Arts Realm. These two people were named Yang Batian and Yang Motian, and they were of the same generation as Yang Dingtian.
In other words, there were five warriors at the same level as Yang Dingtian in the Yang family.
There were about a dozen warriors at the beginning of the Lv 9 of the God Martial Arts Realm. As for those above the Lv 8 of the God Martial Arts Realm, there were about a hundred people. In the Yang family, there was a group of 100 Patriarchs, whose strength was above the Lv 8 of the God Martial Arts Realm.
In terms of decision-making power, Yang Dingtian had three votes, the Patriarchs of the two branch families, Yang Batian and Yang Motian, each had one vote, and the group of Patriarchs had two votes. Yang Dingtian had the greatest authority, but if the two branch families' Patriarchs and the group of Patriarchs opposed his decision, then his decision would be invalid.
This seemed to be a balance of power, but in fact, it was not. Every word of the two reclusive world kings of the Yang family was an order that the entire Yang family had to follow. Even Yang Dingtian was no exception.
Long Chen felt that Yang Lingqing's matter was closely related to these two World King level martial artists.
"We've arrived at Sun Moon City. Your two subordinates have been waiting for you for a long time. I'll take you to see them now." Yang Dingtian said with a smile.
