Chapter 1440 To Think That Actually Happened!Chu Yang was flabbergasted by what he heard. Toward his uncle, Yang Ruoxiong, he was even more filled with admiration to the point of prostrating! This fellow was actually dense to such an extent…Chu Yang immediately made up his mind — He absolutely mustn’t let this uncle of his get wind of anything important in the future!

“How could that coward uncle of yours possibly be someone capable of keeping a secret… This old man must have been really blind. At that time, he kowtowed repeatedly and swore a vicious vow that he wouldn’t leak it out. In the end, he immediately got drunk that night… His promises to keep the secret were still ringing in my ear, yet in the blink of an eye, the entire world now knows… Yet this bastard had to be my actual son…”

Old Master Yang was terribly miserable, tears and snot all over his face. Thumping his chest and stomping his feet, he swore furiously, “F*ck him… His goddamn other… That vile spawn!” Mid-way through, he had spied Old Mistress Yang’s livid countenance and swallowed a consonant into his stomach impromptu.

Chu Yang thoroughly admitted defeat.

You could do that too? To think there’s something like this!

Old Mistress Yang said contemptuously, “Look at how innocent you make yourself out to be… You actually have the cheek to berate your son? Look at how the two Chief Stewards took up residence at the Yang Clan compound, not daring to even go home for fear of leaking the secret. They refrained from meeting others and kept the secret under such tight wraps! Isn’t this all your own fault?”

“Demanding others to keep the secret yet spreading it yourself so happily… Where did you get the cheek to do something like that? And even criticizing this and that about your son…”

“Back then, wasn’t that also exactly what you told your own son after drinking? ‘Ruoxiong, come, come, lend me your ear, I’ll tell you a huge secret. You’d better not tell outsiders…’”

The Old Mistress imitated him vividly. Then, she spat and went on a tirade. “The old one is a pig, while the young one is a bear[1]! Both father and son have no right to say much about the other!”

Yang Bao hung his head in shame, not speaking another word anymore.

Black lines gradually formed on Chu Yang’s forehead. Among the series of black lines, beads of sweat also formed and dripped.

It isn’t just Uncle. I can’t tell Grandfather about any important matters in the future either…

This… is terrible…

The Old Mistress followed up and continued in an infuriated manner. “Building one’s home and career in the land of Dragon and Phoenix Bringing Prosperity, just how incredible a chance encounter is that! Even the Nine Super Clans aren’t this fortunate! And now, it has fallen upon us, the Yang Clan. As long as we can develop at a steady pace, after decades and centuries, wouldn’t the Yang Clan prosper day by day and strengthen more and more? Being the ruling party of a region is within sight!”

“Should others obtain something this amazing that can allow their descendants to propagate for a long time to come, even if they were to die, they wouldn’t reveal a single word. Yet our family is just so unique!”

“Others hadn’t even been in time to sound us out yet, but this pair of father and son has actually publicized it so much that the entire world now knows! What makes this old woman the angriest, so much so that I almost want to take my own life, is that… After the secret was leaked, this pair of father and son actually discussed for an entire night about ‘who leaked out the secret’… Suspecting this person and suspecting that person. In the end, they found out from others that… It was that dumbass pighead uncle of yours who revealed it when he was drunk…”

“To think the two of you were sporting expressions that could rival each other for the title of ‘most innocent’ at that time! I’m really going to throw up blood…”

“Yang Yang, when we visited you that time, it was exactly when this matter had just taken place… Under the excuse of visiting a nephew, we had to lie low until trouble blew over. It hadn’t even been a few months after we returned when the Xiao Clan started to take action…”

Old Master Yang sat through the lecture with a sulky face, his head hung low. Once in a while, he would lift his head, tilt his neck left and right, rotate it and then look at the ceiling. There was embarrassment in his expression but definitely not one of extreme intolerance…

It was very apparent that this wasn’t the first time that this was happening. Didn’t he see that the Old Master himself was already used to it?

Suppressing his laughter, Chu Yang comforted her. “Grandmother, don’t be angry anymore. This is just a moment of carelessness… Cough, Grandfather and Uncle aren’t to be blamed.”

These words were honestly rather contrary to one’s convictions.

You told others to keep the secret and even your subordinates have all stayed tight-lipped, yet you yourself went to spread it…

Surely anyone who heard such a thing would also not know whether to laugh or cry?

Chu Yang felt that if he had also been part of this matter, he would have definitely thrown up blood on the spot! Good thing it happened in the Yang Clan… If it had been another family that wasn’t this dense, it would possibly result in someone’s death!

Old Mistress Yang spat viciously. “If they aren’t to blame, then am I to be!”

Breathing heavily, the Old Mistress clenched her jaw so hard that one could hear grinding sounds produced by her teeth. “Yang Yang, tell me, people like your uncle and your grandfather who are so foolish that the heavens cannot tolerate them, so silly and stupid to the extent that it would incur the wrath of both heaven and humanity, so clueless to the core of their very being, and so dumb that both ghosts and gods would be infuriated… These two dumb pigs, silly donkeys and stupid bears… What’s the point of them being alive in this world!!!”

Chu Yang hastily covered his mouth and lowered his head.

If he had reacted just a bit slower, he would have burst into uproarious laughter…

He hurriedly changed the topic. “What action did the Xiao Clan take?”

This was the key issue.

The Xiao Clan didn’t lack people who could guess what was going on. What if they discovered the Nine Tribulations Sword? …

Even though he knew very well that this was not very possible, Chu Yang was still rather worried.

Old Mistress Yang sighed in a manner as if she expected better from Old Master Yang. “By right, who would possibly publicize such a thing themselves? Even though rumors were flying everywhere and we ourselves were nervous and anxious, the Xiao Clan actually didn’t care at all. After all, which clan leader would reveal their own clan secrets? Even though the news were leaked, in the beginning, the Xiao Clan would only think that we were making it up and trying to mystify others…”

“But later on, the Xiao Clan sent people over and got a few acquaintances to ask your grandfather out for a drink. When they saw that he was getting drunk, they brought this matter up.” Old Mistress Yang looked toward the heavens, totally speechless.

Blinking, Chu Yang asked enthusiastically, “What did Grandfather say?”

“Of course your grandfather denied it in the beginning.” With an expression as if she was about to throw up blood, Old Mistress Yang went on. “He denied it flatly! If he had admitted it immediately, they wouldn’t have suspected anything and would have only thought that he was joking. But he had immediately denied it very nervously…”

Chu Yang was totally speechless.

There were really countless ways that they could make up for their mistake, but his old Grandfather had chosen the most foolish one.

Trying to cover up a misdeed and only making it even more conspicuous!

“What was the hardest to come by was that under those circumstances, when others urged him to drink, he even drank to his heart’s content… and got completely drunk…” Old Mistress Yang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She said, “After becoming thoroughly intoxicated, he patted his chest and guaranteed to the other party in the name of his ancestors. ‘When have I, Yang Bao, ever said a false word in my entire life! If I say that there is, then there definitely is!’”

Chu Yang buried his face into his hands.

What a weirdo…

Being able to go to this extent, Grandfather Yang Bao was definitely a total weirdo! One who needed to be looked up to! He straight up radiated brilliant light…

With a totally mentally-challenged background and a ring of moronic light from head to toe!

“And now, this old fellow actually has the cheek to push all the blame to your uncle… When he himself is the one to blame for all of this!” Old Mistress Yang bellowed furiously.

Old Master Yang hung his head, as if he was about to fall asleep…

“After that, the Xiao Clan sent people to investigate secretly. And so, what made me even more speechless is yet to come!” Old Mistress Yang sighed incessantly.

Even Chu Yang found this strange. It had already reached this stage, yet there were actually even more that could render one speechless? What was it?

“At that time, after discovering the dragon claw and phoenix claw, this bastard actually didn’t deal with them immediately. He could have gotten some people to bring them back home, or directly blow up the entire mine cave and bury it underground. We would also have been happy with just the feng shui alone. But this old bastard actually didn’t do anything at all!”

Old Mistress Yang had a troubled look all over her face. “He just left it in the open like that underground… The people from the Xiao Clan pretty much saw it immediately… the moment they went down!”

Chu Yang felt the pressing and intense urge to throw up blood. If he could, he felt like he could throw up all the blood in him!

To think even something like this had happened!

“And then, the Xiao Clan began to take action. Considering all these, that bastard who sounded your grandfather out at least still had a bit of conscience in him. He secretly told your grandfather, ‘Hurry and leave… Our clan’s great army is coming soon…’”

Old Mistress Yang sighed heavily. “Your grandfather suddenly made up his mind at that point and immediately packed some things and brought the entire family here in a whoosh to seek refuge… Embarrassing me thoroughly!”

“Even though he’s good for nothing at all, this old bastard is instead pretty quick to escape!”

The Old Mistress thumped her dragon-head walking stick viciously on the ground, so furious that her breathing was all ragged and her face totally red.

The Old Master grumbled, “Aren’t we still well in time… It’s only been about a year. Maybe we can get it back after discussing with the nephew…”

“Isn’t a year long enough? Even giving birth requires only ten months!” The Old Mistress snorted.

Chu Yang took a deep breath and said, “I need to discuss this with the others. We definitely have to snatch it back! But how exactly to go about it needs to be planned properly…”

What kind of joke is this? Snatching it back? Of course I have to! Is there even any doubt?

If I don’t, where am I going to get my seventh fragment of the Nine Tribulations Sword?

Chu Yang pretty much left in an anxious hurry.

Old Master Yang Bao exhaled a long comforted breath of air as he praised Chu Yang. “As expected of my grandson. He’s just so earnest when it comes to our family matters.”

Old Mistress Yang glared at him feebly. “Why aren’t you heading back? Haven’t you embarrassed yourself enough yet?”

The moment she raised her walking stick, the Old Master fled while covering his head…

Mo Tianji was chatting with his younger sister, Mo Qingwu, in her room at this moment. After the siblings cleared up the misunderstanding, their relationship seemed to have returned to its most original state instantly.

Of course, what dissatisfied Mo Tianji was that he had already been reduced to second place in his younger sister’s heart.

The one occupying the top spot was Chu Yang, who had taken advantage of his difficulties and the situation to get in!

This made Advisor Mo extremely dissatisfied.

Just as he was racking his brains for a solution, all of a sudden, Chu Yang entered the room with a loud bang. “I say, Mo Tianji, what are you doing always running here to Little Wu’s instead of staying in your own room?”

Chu Yang was rather furious.

This bastard. If not on account of the fact that you’re Little Wu’s Second Brother, I’ll throw you out with a punch!

“This is my biological younger sister!” Mo Tianji was similarly displeased. “What is an outsider like you coming in here for?”

“Second Brother!” Mo Qingwu stamped her foot unhappily. “How can you be this discourteous to Big Brother Chu Yang!”

Mo Tianji felt ridiculously sad and aggrieved.

Why are you only seeing my lack of courtesy toward him? Why aren’t you making any mention of the way how the first thing he said to me the moment he came in was rude…

“I have something urgent to talk to you about!” Chu Yang grabbed Mo Tianji’s collar in one motion and lifted the fellow immediately, before turning around and leaving.

Mo Tianji, whose neck was stuck, was totally unable to move. With his face red from suffocation, he was dragged outside like a dead dog. He could vaguely hear Mo Qingwu exclaiming with her eyes sparkling, “Big Brother Chu Yang is so handsome! He’s totally too domineering…”

Blood almost sprayed out of Mo Tianji’s mouth.

…

Before long, an exclamation of astonishment that couldn’t be suppressed was heard coming from Mo Tianji’s room. It was Mo Tianji saying, “To think that actually happened!”
