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 extentâŠChu Yang immediately made up his mind â He absolutely mustnât let this uncle of his get wind of anything important in the future!
âHow 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 wouldnât 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 sonâŠâ
Old Master Yang was terribly miserable, tears and snot all over his face. Thumping his chest and stomping his feet, he swore furiously, âF*ck him⊠His goddamn other⊠That vile spawn!â Mid-way through, he had spied Old Mistress Yangâs livid countenance and swallowed a consonant into his stomach impromptu.
Chu Yang thoroughly admitted defeat.
You could do that too? To think thereâs something like this!
Old Mistress Yang said contemptuously, âLook 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! Isnât this all your own fault?â
âDemanding 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 sonâŠâ
âBack then, wasnât that also exactly what you told your own son after drinking? âRuoxiong, come, come, lend me your ear, Iâll tell you a huge secret. Youâd better not tell outsidersâŠââ
The Old Mistress imitated him vividly. Then, she spat and went on a tirade. âThe 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!â
Yang Bao hung his head in shame, not speaking another word anymore.
Black lines gradually formed on Chu Yangâs forehead. Among the series of black lines, beads of sweat also formed and dripped.
It isnât just Uncle. I canât tell Grandfather about any important matters in the future eitherâŠ
This⊠is terribleâŠ
The Old Mistress followed up and continued in an infuriated manner. âBuilding oneâs 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 arenât 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, wouldnât the Yang Clan prosper day by day and strengthen more and more? Being the ruling party of a region is within sight!â
âShould 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 wouldnât reveal a single word. Yet our family is just so unique!â
âOthers hadnât 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 âwho leaked out the secretâ⊠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 drunkâŠâ
âTo think the two of you were sporting expressions that could rival each other for the title of âmost innocentâ at that time! Iâm really going to throw up bloodâŠâ
âYang 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 hadnât even been a few months after we returned when the Xiao Clan started to take actionâŠâ
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 intoleranceâŠ
It was very apparent that this wasnât the first time that this was happening. Didnât he see that the Old Master himself was already used to it?
Suppressing his laughter, Chu Yang comforted her. âGrandmother, donât be angry anymore. This is just a moment of carelessness⊠Cough, Grandfather and Uncle arenât to be blamed.â
These words were honestly rather contrary to oneâs convictions.
You told others to keep the secret and even your subordinates have all stayed tight-lipped, yet you yourself went to spread itâŠ
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 wasnât this dense, it would possibly result in someoneâs death!
Old Mistress Yang spat viciously. âIf they arenât to blame, then am I to be!â
Breathing heavily, the Old Mistress clenched her jaw so hard that one could hear grinding sounds produced by her teeth. âYang 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⊠Whatâs the point of them being alive in this world!!!â
Chu Yang hastily covered his mouth and lowered his head.
If he had reacted just a bit slower, he would have burst into uproarious laughterâŠ
He hurriedly changed the topic. âWhat action did the Xiao Clan take?â
This was the key issue.
The Xiao Clan didnât lack people who could guess what was going on. What if they discovered the Nine Tribulations Sword? âŠ
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. âBy 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 didnât 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 othersâŠâ
âBut 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.â Old Mistress Yang looked toward the heavens, totally speechless.
Blinking, Chu Yang asked enthusiastically, âWhat did Grandfather say?â
âOf course your grandfather denied it in the beginning.â With an expression as if she was about to throw up blood, Old Mistress Yang went on. âHe denied it flatly! If he had admitted it immediately, they wouldnât have suspected anything and would have only thought that he was joking. But he had immediately denied it very nervouslyâŠâ
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!
âWhat was the hardest to come by was that under those circumstances, when others urged him to drink, he even drank to his heartâs content⊠and got completely drunkâŠâ Old Mistress Yang didnât know whether to laugh or cry. She said, âAfter becoming thoroughly intoxicated, he patted his chest and guaranteed to the other party in the name of his ancestors. âWhen have I, Yang Bao, ever said a false word in my entire life! If I say that there is, then there definitely is!ââ
Chu Yang buried his face into his hands.
What a weirdoâŠ
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 lightâŠ
With a totally mentally-challenged background and a ring of moronic light from head to toe!
âAnd 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!â Old Mistress Yang bellowed furiously.
Old Master Yang hung his head, as if he was about to fall asleepâŠ
âAfter that, the Xiao Clan sent people to investigate secretly. And so, what made me even more speechless is yet to come!â 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?
âAt that time, after discovering the dragon claw and phoenix claw, this bastard actually didnât 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 didnât do anything at all!â
Old Mistress Yang had a troubled look all over her face. âHe 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!â
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!
âAnd 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, âHurry and leave⊠Our clanâs great army is coming soonâŠââ
Old Mistress Yang sighed heavily. âYour 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!â
âEven though heâs good for nothing at all, this old bastard is instead pretty quick to escape!â
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, âArenât we still well in time⊠Itâs only been about a year. Maybe we can get it back after discussing with the nephewâŠâ
âIsnât a year long enough? Even giving birth requires only ten months!â The Old Mistress snorted.
Chu Yang took a deep breath and said, âI 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 properlyâŠâ
What kind of joke is this? Snatching it back? Of course I have to! Is there even any doubt?
If I donât, 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. âAs expected of my grandson. Heâs just so earnest when it comes to our family matters.â
Old Mistress Yang glared at him feebly. âWhy arenât you heading back? Havenât you embarrassed yourself enough yet?â
The moment she raised her walking stick, the Old Master fled while covering his headâŠ
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 sisterâs 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. âI say, Mo Tianji, what are you doing always running here to Little Wuâs instead of staying in your own room?â
Chu Yang was rather furious.
This bastard. If not on account of the fact that youâre Little Wuâs Second Brother, Iâll throw you out with a punch!
âThis is my biological younger sister!â Mo Tianji was similarly displeased. âWhat is an outsider like you coming in here for?â
âSecond Brother!â Mo Qingwu stamped her foot unhappily. âHow can you be this discourteous to Big Brother Chu Yang!â
Mo Tianji felt ridiculously sad and aggrieved.
Why are you only seeing my lack of courtesy toward him? Why arenât you making any mention of the way how the first thing he said to me the moment he came in was rudeâŠ
âI have something urgent to talk to you about!â Chu Yang grabbed Mo Tianjiâs 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, âBig Brother Chu Yang is so handsome! Heâs totally too domineeringâŠâ
Blood almost sprayed out of Mo Tianjiâs mouth.
âŠ
Before long, an exclamation of astonishment that couldnât be suppressed was heard coming from Mo Tianjiâs room. It was Mo Tianji saying, âTo think that actually happened!â
