It’s no wonder he’s not surprised.

As long as something is related to the word ‘Spirit,’ its level is invisibly raised. Just like the Spirit Martial Realm above the Body Refining Realm, among a thousand Body Refining Realm cultivators, there may not be a single expert in the Spirit Martial Realm. This shows the fundamental difference between the Spirit Martial Realm and the Body Refining Realm.

The same goes for weapons. The difference between having a spirit and not having one is vast.

And this spear evidently is a spiritual item.

“Unbelievable, haha, this is really great.” Yang Chen’s eyes sparkled brightly: “I really picked up a treasure this time, I didn’t expect there would be such a

treasure in the Gu family. It seems I cannot casually show off this Purple Forbidden Soaring Dragon; otherwise, it’s difficult to guarantee that it won’t cause someone to covet it and bring disaster upon myself.”

Thinking of this, Yang Chen turned his gaze and said, “You must not tell anyone else about what happened today.”

“Young Master, Ming Yue understands.” Gu Mingyue said softly.

“Yang Chen, I haven’t lived enough yet. If I let this matter out, wouldn’t our

Yang family be in trouble? Even the Great Tribes can’t protect us if the Horse-thief Gang knew we killed the bandits.” Yang Wu took a deep breath, still feeling a lingering fear when recalling the seriousness of the situation.

Good thing all those bandits were wiped out in one swoop.

If they hadn’t been able to wipe out all those bandits and let even one of them escape today, tomorrow would be the day of their family’s destruction.

If the Yang family doesn’t provoke the bandits, the bandits have no excuse to destroy the Yang family, because the Great Tribes are watching. But once there is an excuse, the Great Tribes can’t say anything.

Yang Chen nodded: “As long as you two understand, no matter what, we cannot stay here for long. Who knows if those bandits will make a comeback? Let’s hurry back.”

Yang Chen and Yang Wu rode fast horses back to the Yang family not long after.

When they returned to the Yang family, both Yang Chen and Yang Wu breathed a sigh of relief, at least nothing about this matter had been discovered by anyone.

However, just as this thought crossed his mind, Yang Chen suddenly saw Elder Yang Si not far away.

“Elder Si?” Yang Chen stared at the elderly man in front of him, his face filled with astonishment.

With his hands behind his back, Elder Yang Si seemed to be waiting for the three of them, Yang Chen and Yang Wu, to return. Seeing them riding fast horses back, Elder Yang Si furrowed his brows and said without expression, “Yang Chen, Yang Wu, what have you two been up to?”

As soon as Yang Wu heard Elder Yang Si’s question, he immediately showed a guilty conscience: “Elder…Elder Si, we…we didn’t do anything.”

“Didn’t do anything? Then what are you afraid of?” Elder Yang Si spoke in a deep voice.

Yang Chen took a deep, meaningful look at Elder Yang Sits eyes and couldn’t help but say, “Elder Si, you already know everything?”

“Hmph, not only do I know, but I also clearly saw everything that happened.” Elder Yang Si said in a condensed voice, “Yang Chen, Yang Wu, both of you are really bold. Do you know that if what you did today was discovered by others, it would bring fatal disaster to the Yang family?”

“Eld…Elder Si, 1…1 know I was wrong.” Yang Wu sighed.

In his heart, Yang Chen was secretly moved. Now that he thought about it carefully, it turned out that Elder Yang Si had discovered their actions early on. Yet he had been secretly protecting them from the shadows without revealing himself.

Elder Yang Si looked at Yang Chen, his face filled with a mixture of love and helplessness.

In fact, when Yang Chen and Yang Wu rode away from the Yang family, he had already noticed something wrong.

If it were just Yang Wu, he wouldn’t have cared.

But Yang Chen was different.

Now Yang Chen’s status was very sensitive, especially after he crippled one of

Xu Huts arms, he had already been marked by the Third Master. How could the

Yang family let Yang Chen leave the Yang family alone? Therefore, whenever Yang Chen left alone, someone was always protecting him.Today, Yang Chen went out without reporting to anyone, so there was no one secretly protecting him.

But when he noticed this, it was different. He saw Yang Chen hurrying, not daring to hesitate, and closely followed behind Yang Chen. He watched the whole process and the outcome.

Especially when he saw Yang Chen single-handedly killing more than a dozen bandits, he almost dropped his jaw in surprise.

Now he didn’t even know how to scold Yang Chen, so he could only sigh: “Forget it, although your actions were reckless, young people should never lose their courage. Fortunately, you two are not idiots and did not leave any survivors.”

“Fourth Master, please be sure to keep this a secret for us.” Yang Wu couldn’t help but say.

“I don’t know what you two did today.” Elder Yang Si said fiercely: “You two, don’t even know what you did today, understand?”

Yang Chen and Yang Wu were initially stunned but then immediately realized:

“Fourth Master, we understand.”

This obviously meant that Elder Yang Si was protecting them.

“If someone asks, you guys just say that you two went out on horseback today to purchase items for the Yang family.” Elder Yang Si said coldly: “Can you remember that?”

“Yes, Fourth Master.” Yang Chen and Yang Wu respectfully replied at the same time.

Only then did Elder Yang Si let out a long sigh: “Yang Wu, you go back first,

Yang Chen, you stay.”

Yang Wu didn’t know what the Fourth Master wanted to talk to Yang Chen alone, but he still obediently left.

Yang Chen and Gu Mingyue both dismounted and bowed, saying: “Fourth

Master.”

“Yang Chen, are you scared?” Elder Yang Si said.

“Not afraid.” Yang Chen said: “Since I have done it, there is no reason to be afraid. If I have another chance, I will still do it.”

“Good, good, good!” Yang Si patted Yang Chen’s shoulder: “The Yang family does not need men without courage. I originally planned to scold you, but those bandits have committed so many heinous deeds, who wouldn’t have anger in their hearts? However, Yang Chen, when it’s time to endure, you still have to endure! In this Great Wilderness, those bandits are ultimately local tyrants.”

Yang Chen also knew that his actions today were somewhat reckless. Under

Elder Yang Sit s guidance, he gently said: “Fourth Master, I understand.”

“Your martial arts cultivation is probably close to the Body Refining Realm

Seventh Layer now, which really gave me a big surprise.” Elder Yang Si patted Yang Chen’s shoulder: ‘Yang Chen, I don’t know how to tell you this, the Yang family may have really wronged you in the past, but it was out of helplessness.” Yang Chen didn’t know what Elder Yang Si wanted to say.

Elder Yang Si, with his hands behind his back, murmured: “In the end, you are unhappy in your heart, I can understand. But it’s all out of helplessness, whether you believe it or not, now that you are really in trouble, as long as the Yang family can help, no one would not help you. Just like me, I’m willing to stake my life for you. Do you know why?”

Yang Chen suddenly looked stunned.

Elder Yang Si clenched his fists: “This is the clan. Your future achievements will definitely be above mine. The future Yang family with you will be better than the one with me. So, for you, why should I care about this old life? This is the clan. I’m saying all this just to hope you can remember that you should not live just for yourself, but also for the Yang family.”

Yang Chen was somewhat shaken by this, he took a deep breath: “Fourth Master, I understand. I will definitely keep in mind the words of Fourth Master today.”

“As long as you know, I won’t say much else. The Hundred Clans Trial Battle is about to begin. Although your martial arts cultivation is very sophisticated, you still need to prepare more.” Elder Yang Si instructed.

Yang Chen naturally did not dare to slack off.

“Alright, you can go now. No one is allowed to mention today’s events!” Elder Yang Si said.

Soon, Yang Chen left.

Elder Yang Si watched the direction Yang Chen left in and murmured: “Yang Chen’s martial arts cultivation has grown so fast that it is almost like a demon, quite like the first genius of the Great Wilderness back then. Moreover, this kid has a great talent and is not vague when taking actions. More than a dozen bandits were actually all killed by him alone.. It seems that the good fortune of my Yang family has really arrived!”
