I Have Unlimited Dantians-Chapter 66 - 57: Limitless Showing Off (Part 2)

"I am delighted that you all could join this celebration. In the future, I hope our Yangg Family can progress with your help, and that we, the Four Great Families, can work together to make Luoshui City a first-rate city in the Divine Wind Empire!"

Yangg Yan’s resonant voice filled the Luoshui Grand Restaurant, across from the Fuyung Money Shop—now the Nie Family’s Money Shop. He raised his cup with both hands as he spoke.

That day, he had performed his Cultivation until nightfall, finally succeeding in mastering the Chi Xiao Divine Axe First Technique. After his strength had greatly increased, Yangg Yan went to look for Nie Yun, only to find he had already left at some point.

Seeing it was late, he hadn’t waited any longer and had gone to the Yangg Family alone. Yangg Yan had originally expected that returning to the heart of the family would involve endless interrogations and at least a few fights. To his surprise, however, the family Elders were overjoyed to see him. Before he could even react, they had named him the first-in-line successor!

He hadn’t even mentioned letting his mother return to the ancestral hall before they brought it up themselves. Their attitude now compared to before was a world of difference!

’Could it be that my King’s Dominating Aura erupted and made everyone submit?’

At first, Yangg Yan felt a bit narcissistic, wondering if he’d suddenly become some hotshot. He later discovered that wasn’t it at all. While the family and the Elders were trying to get close to him, they were all, intentionally or not, asking about his master’s origins.

’My master?’

’What master? I don’t have one!’

Of course, he wasn’t an idiot; he knew what to say and what not to say, so he was always vague. However, after being evasive too many times, others started to get suspicious. It wasn’t long before he was challenged by the sons of the Great Elder and the Second Elder.

Both of them were at the Peak of the True Qi Realm, weaker than he was. He didn’t hold back, unleashing the Chi Xiao Divine Axe’s First Technique with a swing of his Fiery Flame Axe.

He had only ever practiced it and had never used it against another person, so he had no idea how powerful the Chi Xiao Divine Axe’s First Technique truly was. As soon as he attacked, he showed no mercy and used his full strength!

BOOM!

An earth-shattering explosion erupted. When he looked at those two idiots again, he saw that his single move had blown them into minced meat. They were deader than dead.

The power of the Chi Xiao Divine Axe combined with the Fiery Flame Axe truly startled Yangg Yan. He had thought that killing the sons of the Great Elder and the Second Elder would trigger a backlash from the Elder Group. But unexpectedly, after he made his move, the way everyone looked at him changed. It was as if they were looking at a huge treasure! They no longer had any doubts about his evasive answers.

And so, he officially became the family’s first-in-line successor and began to take control of power... He’d been busy with it ever since.

After returning to the family’s core and becoming the most powerful person beneath the Clan Leader, Yangg Yan secretly made some inquiries. Only then did he understand the reason for the family’s sudden change in attitude. Apparently, during the hunt that day, they had encountered a peerless expert who claimed to be his master!

’Since when do I have a master?’

After thinking for a moment, Yangg Yan had an epiphany. ’Who else could it be but that kid, Nie Yun?’

He was the one who bought the Fiery Flame Axe, and he was the one who taught him the Chi Xiao Divine Axe Martial Art. In everyone else’s eyes, it was as if he had an incredibly powerful master!

He was busy for several days, finally securing all the authority belonging to the first-in-line successor. Just as he was planning to find Nie Yun and get a clear explanation, he received news that his new status was to be announced to the other three Great Families. That was why he had no choice but to attend this banquet.

"But of course! One can imagine that under the leadership of Young Master Yangg Yan, the Yangg Family will only grow stronger and stronger!" The moment Yangg Yan finished speaking, another young man raised his cup with a chuckle.

Feng Xiao, the Young Master of the Feng Family!

At this moment, Feng Xiao’s Dantian was open. The listlessness he’d shown before was gone, replaced by a confident expression. Not only that, but his strength, which had long been stagnant, had surged forward, reaching the Peak Level of the Body Emergence Realm!

In less than a week since his Dantian had been opened, he had gone from the Early-Stage Body Emergence Realm to the Peak. The advancement speed of an awakened Hidden Bloodline was truly terrifying!

Of course, this kind of explosive advancement wasn’t without limits. Upon reaching the Peak of the Body Emergence Realm, he felt he had hit a ceiling. Progressing further would definitely not be so easy.

’But even so, among the younger generation, my strength is now definitely at the very top!’

"I, Chen Xing, also congratulate Young Master Yangg Yan. Our Chen Family will always be the Yangg Family’s staunchest ally!" Chen Xing, the Young Master of the Chen Family, also stood up and raised his cup.

Although the upper echelons of the Four Great Families had all come to this gathering, the ones with the highest status were actually the four Young Masters—the future Captains of the Four Great Families!

"Heh, build Luoshui City into a first-rate city of the Divine Wind Empire? Isn’t that a bit of an exaggeration?"

Just as the two Young Masters, Feng Xiao and Chen Xing, were offering their congratulations, an untimely, mocking voice cut in.

"Nie Qiang?"

Hearing the voice, the three Young Masters turned around at the same time and saw Nie Qiang approaching slowly, his hands clasped behind his back and a smirk on his lips.

"What do you mean by that?" Hearing the hostility in his tone, Yangg Yan knew this guy definitely wasn’t here to offer congratulations. His expression darkened.

"What do I mean? Heh. Becoming a first-rate city in the Divine Wind Empire is an incredibly difficult task." Nie Qiang ignored Yangg Yan’s dark expression, offered a faint smile, and sat right down in the seat of honor at the table, his attitude arrogant and insolent. "If we remain a disorganized mess, we’ll certainly never accomplish that goal. I have a proposal to discuss with the three of you. I wonder if you’re interested?"

The Four Great Families had always been equals, with none higher or lower than the others. Therefore, when the four Young Masters gathered at a table, they would typically sit in four different directions to signify their equal standing. Now, Nie Qiang had arrived and immediately taken the seat of honor, which displeased the other three.

"Spit it out!"

Yangg Yan, who was burly and had always disliked scheming, saw his audacity and waved his hand dismissively.

"Heh heh, Young Master Yangg Yan, don’t be angry. My proposal is of immense benefit to our Four Great Families! If we succeed, our Four Great Families can replace the City Lord’s Mansion and take complete control of Luoshui City! At that point, won’t making Luoshui City a first-rate city in the Divine Wind Empire be entirely up to us?"

Ignoring everyone’s angry glares, Nie Qiang tapped his fingers lightly on the table, a confident look on his face.

"Replace the City Lord’s Mansion? Easier said than done. The City Lord’s Mansion has governed Luoshui City since ancient times. It’s deeply entrenched. You think you can do it alone?"

Feng Xiao also seemed displeased by his actions, but as they were both Young Masters of the Four Great Families, it wasn’t appropriate for him to make a move. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

"Of course I can’t do it alone. My proposal is that the four of us form an alliance and then elect an Alliance Leader. Once the alliance is established, we can use our combined power to shatter the current disunity among the Four Great Families. Opposing the City Lord’s Mansion shouldn’t be difficult then!"

Nie Qiang said with a smile.
