Ji Yuan originally thought that on the way back, the Yang Family would send people to intercept him.

So right from the start, he used the Thunder Falcon Boat and even activated the Thunder Falcon Essence inside, rushing back at full speed.

But as it turned out, things weren't so bad—the Yang Family didn't go too far... The whole way home, right up until the two of them returned to Chulong Island, everything was safe and sound.

By now, a faint light was already appearing at the edge of the sky.

After saying goodbye to Du Wanyi, Ji Yuan returned to his own house.

"Hm?"

As Ji Yuan entered the room, he seemed to hear some strange noises, but when he carefully sensed around, he found no movement at all.

He checked inside and out, and finally discovered that it was just a rotten peach that had fallen down.

Confirming that there was nothing wrong, he could finally relax a little.

Should he kill the Yang Family?

Indeed, judging from Ji Yuan's current situation, killing the Yang Family, killing Yang Shunan, was the most suitable move—it would not only fulfill the upgrade condition for the Meditation Room, but also resolve Du Wanyi's predicament.

Based on what Du Wanyi was dealing with, that mid-stage Foundation Establishment Island Master from Water Dragon Sect, Yang Yunxiang's second uncle, definitely didn't know about this.

If every little matter like this required a Foundation Establishment Island Master to personally handle, that would honestly be too cheap.

So the most likely situation is Yang Yunxiang using his second uncle's influence, intending to first force Du Wanyi out of the Water Dragon Sect.

Without the protection of Water Dragon Sect, she's just a peak Qi Cultivation cultivator, at the mercy of the Yang Family.

As for whether Yang Shunan knows about this, Ji Yuan isn't sure; he only knows that if he can kill Yang Shunan, Du Wanyi's current trouble will definitely be solved.

And to kill Yang Shunan... for Ji Yuan now, it's really no difficult task.

Though he's curious to test exactly how strong he is now—whether he could solo a Foundation Establishment cultivator—he's not so stupid as to take that risk.

If he's going to act, he'll certainly bring the Big Toad along.

Especially now with the Tier Two Spirit Beast Bag, he can completely put the Big Toad in the Spirit Beast Bag, sneak into Qingyang Manor, and finally let the Big Toad out.

By then, everything will naturally settle itself.

After a little thought, Ji Yuan had made up his mind.

Do it!

The Meditation Room needed to be opened as soon as possible, and Du Wanyi was facing such a problem—emotionally and logically, this job was worth doing. Besides, the Yang Family had managed to raise such a nasty second-generation immortal, so they were obviously rotten to the core.

And in fact, that was exactly the case.

The next day, Ji Yuan went to Red Leaf City to inquire around, and only then did he find out what kind of people the Yang Family really was.

Compared to the Qin Family in the Zengtou City, they were at least as bad, if not worse.

The Yang Family hadn't been on top for long—they'd risen to power under the hands of Yang Shunan and Yang Taian, the two brothers. Before, these brothers were both loose cultivators in Red Leaf City, but somehow stumbled upon a stroke of luck: in just over ten years, they went from early-stage Qi Cultivation to the peak of Qi Cultivation.

During their rise, they pretty much killed, burned, and looted however they pleased.

Eventually, they pissed off enough people—a bunch of late-stage and peak Qi Cultivation cultivators banded together to take the brothers down. At that time, the two were hunted all over, barely keeping their lives.

Then, when Water Dragon Sect started recruiting, Yang Taian joined them.

With the sect's protection, those pursuers finally gave up.

After Yang Taian joined a righteous sect, the two brothers finally toned things down a bit—at least they didn't go on killing and robbing sprees anymore.

Later, Yang Taian successfully reached Foundation Establishment. The two joined forces and established the Yang Mansion outside Red Leaf City on Qingyang Mountain, which they also called Qingyang Manor.

The infamous Yang brothers rebranded themselves as "Lord Yang" and "Manor Master Yang."

As for now, relying on their two Foundation Establishment experts, the Yang Family "bought up" a ton of businesses in Red Leaf City, cultivated Qingyang Mountain into a Spirit Field, and took the opportunity to "protect" quite a few Qi Cultivation cultivators.

The Yang Family slowly became a famous cultivation clan in Red Leaf City.

Once Ji Yuan understood the Yang Family's history, he had no more reservations about dealing with them.

He'd been worried about killing a good guy by mistake; now he just wished he'd acted sooner.

After gathering information on the Yang Family, Ji Yuan headed back to Mist Island ahead of schedule.

When he arrived, the Big Toad was playing with a few Spirit Pigs on the island; basically, it had let them out of the Pigsty and was chasing them all over the place.

The fast ones were fine, but if any ran slow, out came its tongue.

The Spirit Pig would get snatched up and swallowed in one gulp.

But the Big Toad didn't actually eat them—it just tasted them for a moment, then spat them out again.

After that, the Spirit Pig would be terrified and run for its life; the fast ones would be spared, but then there was always another slow one—to the toad's mouth for another "bath."

Round and round it went, and the Big Toad was having a blast.

Of course, the main reason was that Ji Yuan had warned it not to steal bites, or else there'd never be Spirit Pig meat again—otherwise, it wouldn't need all this trouble.

Ji Yuan was here today to invite it to kill, so the meal had to be generous.

So after landing on Mist Island, he took three Spirit Pigs out of the Storage Bag and tossed them on the ground for the Big Toad to enjoy.

Three pigs, in exchange for Yang Shunan's Foundation Establishment life; Ji Yuan thought it was a fair trade.

While the Big Toad was eating, Ji Yuan took a walk around Mist Island.

This was his base of operations, and there could be no mistakes.
