Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 933: Chapter 665: The Liang Family Excels at Self-Preservation, Don’t They?

The master and servant duo quickly walked towards the back courtyard’s side room. As soon as Yang Yunxue entered, she saw two familiar figures — Yang Zhenshan and Yu Qingyi.

“Your daughter greets father and mother,” Yang Yunxue said, both happy and on the verge of tears, as she moved to kneel before them.

Yu Qingyi hurriedly pulled her up, “Why are you so emotional, girl?”

Yang Yunxue’s eyes reddened. She was almost fifty, yet someone still called her a girl.

Since the Yang family moved to Star Moon Island, she had only seen Yang Zhenshan and Yu Qingyi once, nearly ten years ago when she visited the island.

All these years, she truly missed Yang Zhenshan and also missed Yu Qingyi.

Although Yu Qingyi was a stepmother, a stepmother is still a mother, and she had been good to her in the past.

Yang Zhenshan wore a loving expression on his face as he looked Yang Yunxue up and down.

She indeed seemed to have aged a lot compared to before, with noticeable crow’s feet at the corners of her eyes. However, her skin was still fair and delicate, maintaining an elegant demeanor.

Aging is inevitable, yet Yang Yunxue had become an Innate Martial Artist, appearing not much different from a woman in her thirties.

However, compared to Yu Qingyi, she was slightly inferior.

Standing together, Yu Qingyi appeared even younger.

This was understandable, as Yu Qingyi and Yang Zhenshan had always been together, receiving the best resources.

For instance, speaking of the Ice Heart Jade Bone Pill, Yu Qingyi received one every month for twenty years without interruption.

If not for her mature demeanor, claiming she was in her twenties would not raise any doubts.

The six siblings of the Yang family, except for Yang Mingzhao, were now all Innate Martial Artists. There’s no need to mention the three brothers Yang Mingcheng; even Yang Yunyan reached the Innate Realm three years ago.

However, Yang Yunyan’s achievement of becoming an Innate Martial Artist was solely due to resources. As for her strength, she had never shed blood.

“Father~~”

Yang Yunxue called out through tears and laughter as she looked at Yang Zhenshan.

Yang Zhenshan stepped forward, gently patting her head as he used to, “These years, I have overlooked you!”

With so many children and grandchildren, it was inevitable to overlook some, especially daughters who were married off and lived away. No matter how much one missed them, seeing them was rare.

The family, seeing each other after so long, inevitably became close.

In front of Yang Zhenshan and Yu Qingyi, Yang Yunxue once again showed her girlish charm.

After chatting for a long time, Yang Yunxue finally asked about the main matter, “Father, mother, what brings you here this time?”

Yang Zhenshan stroked his beard and said, “There are two matters: first, I intend for Chengye to take over Da Rong’s empire. I’m informing you in advance so you can prepare!”

“We have quite a few relatives in the Capital City, and I hope you can look after them a bit more!”

Saying this, Yang Zhenshan took out a token and handed it to Yang Yunxue, “Our family still has some people in the Capital City. If needed, you can mobilize them!”

The Yang family’s servants had all moved to Star Moon Island long ago, but that did not mean the Yang family had no manpower in the Capital City.

On the contrary, the Yang family still had considerable manpower in the Capital City.

Let us not forget that the shops of the Yang family business are spread across the entire coastal region of Da Rong. Although the Capital City is not coastal, it is one of the important markets for the Yang family business.

Plus, with the shops left by the Luo family back then, the Yang family business still has a lot of dealings in the Capital City, naturally requiring manpower.

In addition, the Yang family also left many people in the Capital City to gather intelligence. The intelligence system established by Wu Zheng in the Capital City in the beginning still exists. Although these people can only collect obvious information, many of them are Martial Arts experts.

Yang Yunxue opened her mouth wide, looking at Yang Zhenshan in shock.

“Father wants Chengye to become Emperor!”

“Why not?” Yang Zhenshan chuckled.

After her shock, Yang Yunxue fell into contemplation.

“It’s not impossible; it’s just that I never expected father to have such intentions!”

Yang Zhenshan shook his head slightly, “It’s not that I have such intentions, but our Yang family cannot stay out of it. Since we are inevitably involved, we might as well aim for the throne!”

Thinking about the current strength of the Yang family in Da Rong, Yang Yunxue nodded slightly, “True, since someone has to be Emperor, it might as well be my nephew!”

After her initial surprise, she realized it was expected.

Considering the current situation in the world, the feasibility of the Yang family vying for supremacy was quite high.

This world, both rebel leaders and outlaws desire it. So why shouldn’t our Yang family contend for it?

“And the second matter?” Yang Yunxue proactively inquired.

“Father wants to meet with Liang Shengze!” Yang Zhenshan said.

Yang Yunxue immediately understood Yang Zhenshan’s intention. Since the Yang family was vying for the world, naturally, they had to ally with the Changping Marquis Mansion.

After a brief consideration, she said, “Father, you actually don’t need to meet him. Your daughter can persuade him!”

“Oh!” Yang Zhenshan was somewhat surprised.

Yang Yunxue smiled, “Father, Jinyan reached the Innate Realm just last month!”

Yang Zhenshan’s eyes flickered, “Are you saying?”

Yang Yunxue raised her chin and said, “The Changping Marquis Mansion currently has four Innate Martial Artists. My husband and I are two of them!”

Currently, the strength of the Changping Marquis Mansion is somewhat astounding.

Back then, the mansion relied solely on Liang Shengze, but now the Liang family has four Innate Martial Artists.

Liang Shengze, Liang Chu, Liang Jinyan, and Yang Yunxue.

Indeed, Liang Shengze had the highest cultivation and the greatest strength, but Liang Jinyan was the younger generation of the Liang family, representing its continuation and legacy.

If it were just Yang Yunxue, she probably couldn’t sway Liang Shengze’s attitude, after all, she was a woman. But Liang Jinyan was different; he was a descendant of the Liang family, and Liang Shengze had to consider his stance.
