Chapter 309: A Close Watch!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The three of them spat harshly and turned away forcefully so that they did not have to watch him. Unfortunately, they had used too much strength in the gesture that they cracked their necks, almost breaking them.

They turned to stare at Yun Yang resentfully, looking terribly miserable and crestfallen.

Boss, this is a huge blow. It is biased treatment, no two ways about it.

Yun Yang looked towards the sky, thinking, "How will the few of you know what Dong Tianleng’ has lost for this sword. If you did, you fellows will definitely feel justified… Still, I can’t tell you this… It’s true that heaven blesses kindhearted ones, but those not blessed, well…"

"Dong Tianleng doesn’t have a mystical beast offspring. Are you fellows also similarly lacking? Usher them out quickly. I haven’t checked on them." Yun Yang pressed with some urgency but he was actually diverting the attention.

The three noble young masters were despondent

After such a terrible surprise, the thrilling joy of obtaining Luminary Paste earlier had dissipated. They cast their glances then at their small mystical beast cubs and had the impulse of strangling them - it’s this little thing that is useless… I can’t get boss to like them and that has made me lose the chance to own a renowned sword…

Oh, how resentful I am!

…

For the next few days, the Residence of Yun became a zoo once again. There was Big Whitey, Whitey Two, Three, Four, and Five… and Jiji. These were directly under Yun Yang while the Three-eye Boar, Ten Thousand Catty Bear, and Black-winged Tiger cub were officially considered part of the family as well.

The Three-eye Boar was named Hero by Qiu Yunsan, while the Ten Thousand Catty Bear was easily named Good Man by Xia Bingchuan. The Black-winged Tiger was named King by Chun Wanfeng. These three names… forget about the Black-winged Tiger, but matching Hero and Good Man to the Three-eye Boar and Ten Thousand Catty Bear? The inappropriateness made Yun Yang twitch at the wrong places.

What courage, could you fellows be any more generous?

…

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

Yun Yang basically kept himself locked inside the residence for these seven days. He went nowhere, as he concentrated without any diversion of focus to what was happening outside in the world; fully absorbed in the role of a mystical beast trainer!

From the outside, there had been two pairs of gazes that kept a close watch at the Residence of Yun. The young lord and the black-robed elderly had been watching this place for four days.

They had spent almost no effort in finding out that Ji Lingxi had some acquaintance with the Residence of Yun’s young master and had even stayed here. Therefore, this place was the most likely location, since it was also within their target area - Tiantang City! Both master and servant had been watching for four continuous days but found no abnormalities.

If Yun Yang did really save the two girls or perhaps had some connection with Supreme Wind and had asked him to save the ladies, he should have been so collected and calm. Either Yun Yang had no idea of the incident, or he was too shrewd to reveal anything.

As for the third possibility, it was that he had something to depend on and completely omitted the young lord’s presence. However, this possibility was immediately discarded by the young lord! He had come to a few conclusions after days of observation.

Firstly, Yun Yang himself possessed very meager ability; he was maybe only an ant. Secondly, there was no trace of remarkably formidable experts residing in the Residence of Yun. Those exposed only had ordinary prowess. No matter how Supreme Wind was related to Yun Yang, he was either not at the Residence of Yun or his powerful exterior was just for show!

Although the Residence of Yun housed the elite experts of the four noble families, the level of the young lord and old servant duo’s capabilities was that of Ling Xiaozui’s level. The four family experts were only ants that were a tad stronger.

Upon reaching such a conclusion, the young lord and old servant grew increasingly reckless in their plans, abandoning their initial caution.

"Young lord, this Young Master Yun is a rare genius, just based on his endowment," the elder clad in black robes said in a low voice.

"I’ve long noticed that."

The young lord nodded his head.

"However, that is the only thing he has going for him. His physique is too complicated and the skills he has learned doesn’t match at all. Even if he has achieved some by now, he is destined to not reach the pinnacle stage in this life."

The black-robed elder nodded and commented, "This is really a pity. The natural gift of a golden jade body is rare even from where we come from. It’s the perfect talent to cultivate swordsmanship but why has he selected a wholly mismatched skill and of such complex base at that… This is really a waste!"

The young lord smiled. "Although his gift would hasten his initial stage of cultivation and facilitate the breakthrough of bottlenecks, his improvement would slow down once he got to the heavenly realm! Those who he initially surpassed will surpass him once again if they are fortunate. A supposed genius who took the wrong step once they began cultivation will either meet their downfall or forever be suppressed. There’s no future to talk about."

"Therefore…" The middle-aged young lord concluded, "This Young Master Yun looks high spirited and boastful now but his future is bleak. This should originally be a cultivator’s knowledge and experience but this lower world sees only what the eyes can see! They won’t have especially taken notice of the issue of matching between the basis of themselves and the cultivation method they opted for. It can’t be helped…"

The elder in black said, "We’ve kept watch for four full days and there aren’t any abnormalities in the Residence of Yun. Isn’t this a little strange?"

The young lord spoke faintly, "Hardly surprising, actually. If anything unusual happens, it’d be spotted by us all too easily. Now that would be strange."

"Yes, the young lord is right, of course." the old man said.

"Actually, to say there aren’t any abnormalities isn’t all true. So many mystical beasts have gathered at this place… and they obviously belong to the four noble families. There might be a story behind all this that we don’t know about."

The young lord watched the inside of the Residence of Yun from afar and said indifferently, "Could it be that this Young Master Yun is a mystical beast trainer?"

The elder in black robes commented, "The lower world’s people think very differently from where we come from. Their cultivation path is narrow and they don’t know how to move forward. Even if Young Master Yun bears the identity of a mystical beast trainer, it’s not exactly surprising."

"Also, the Residence of Yun’s Feng Shui is excellent." The young lord explained, "The arrangement of the structure inside is meaningful. Just the Feng Shui of the layout of the strata in the land can already gather effectively the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth…"

"It’s noticeable just by looking at the animals and plants in the residence," the young lord said.

"Combining the points mentioned, this Young Master Yun’s family background doesn’t seem to only be merely an imperial court’s marquis."

A thoughtful expression flashed across the young lord’s eyes.

"Let us think of a way to approach him."

…

Yun Yang closed his eyes and delivered spiritual Qi to begin verifying the three mystical beasts’ current state and prepare to officially train them.

These three cubs had been staying at his residence for seven days. Although a human would not notice a distinct difference in these seven days, mystical beasts were the most sensitive to changes of the spiritual Qi of their surroundings.

These young cubs had all turned active and vigorous, running to and fro, an improvement from their initial listlessness. In addition, as Yun Yang slowly trained them bit by bit, these little fellows seemed to display signs of increased intelligence!

How long had it been?

The experts from the four families were baffled with such a magical effect, almost refusing to believe what they were seeing! It was only now that they wholly acknowledged the words of the four noble young masters. It looked like this Young Master Yun was no ordinary man after all!

Looking at the Three-eye Boar that was trying its hardest to roll and hop, bolting here and there, it had bounced over as soon as Yun Yang called for it - utterly obedient.

There was also the Ten Thousand Catty Bear that was looking rather dumb with its legs supporting its heavy body, but it was also docilely executing Yun Yang’s various orders.

The Black-winged Tiger that everyone thought to be the least of a team player, unlike the other flying mystical beasts, was actually as obedient.

The immediate effect of such training was never before seen or heard; it was akin to a miracle!

"Hero! Come, roll over!"

"Good Man! Come, stand up and walk!"

"King, spin around!"

Upon observing at a close distance for these past few days, the experts could confirm that they did not know yet what the particular purposes of Yun Yang’s odd hand gestures, commands, and actions were, but they knew that they were effective on the mystical beasts!

He was obviously improving and bettering each of the beasts’ natural weakness when he trained the three of them. With time, the future of these cubs would be bright indeed.

The Three-eye Boar and Ten Thousand Catty Bear were heavy, so Yun Yang had trained them to run and move around to cultivate their agility while the Black-winged Tiger was naturally agile, so he was focusing on cultivating its prowess and patience. Basically, each step’s predicted goal was clear to the eye.

Moreover, Yun Yang seemed to be engulfed in some mysterious and inexplicable atmosphere that was urging the mystical beasts’ improvement and obedience, passively and gradually changing their innate characteristics. This was what bewildered everyone but Yun Yang had clearly done it, right in front of them.

After some thought, the spectators could make some sense of it. If Yun Yang did not have such skills, he would not have boasted that he could train mystical beasts. Although training them was already impressive enough, it would still be futile if there were no further tactics to change the mystical beasts.

The seemingly unreachable distance when Yun Yang had said he could change the mystical beasts, like rebirth and advance them to breaking through their innate level restraints, was no longer that far! The experts finally saw hope.

It was due to this that the four families’ experts changed their attitude, from being doubtful and judgmentally suspicious to being reverent, impressed, and even awe-struck!

If these cubs could really advance, then the family’s hope would begin here!

Yun Yang was now a deity who could do anything in their eyes.

Everyone was filled with hope and motivation! As long as this was completed, they would be contributing a huge merit when they returned to the family.
