Chapter 1501 - 1498: Sun Lang Speaks to Me Without Reserve
Yang Fei briefly told Sun Xingyu what had happened after he followed Wan Daorong to Tian Nan Peak.
Even though Sun Xingyu had already seen Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang appear before him, when he heard that Yang Fei had braved danger alone to come to the Southern Domain World because of the incident involving the three of them at Tian Nan Peak, and that back on Tian Nan Peak he even went head‑to‑head with Wang Xingpeng and almost died at the hands of that couple from Tianzhu Peak, he was still deeply moved.
What are brothers?
This is what.
In this brutal Cultivation World where the weak are prey to the strong and everyone looks out only for themselves, after going through countless life‑and‑death upheavals, Yang Fei could still maintain such concern and protectiveness toward his former brothers. How could he not be moved?
"What about you? After you escaped from Tian Nan Peak, how did you end up here, and how the hell did you... ahem... get so lucky as to meet a soulmate beauty?" Yang Fei asked.
This was Hehuan Residence, and Yan Xihua was a Peak Late-stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivator. For all he knew, every word and action between him and Sun Xingyu here might be under her gaze; it would be wiser for him to watch what he said.
Qin Yanyang glanced at him and Qin Yanyang, a faint sigh in her eyes, and said with emotion, "I guess I’ve got a big life. Back when that incident at Tian Nan Peak happened, I knew what kind of person Wang Xingpeng was, and I understood that that couple from Tianzhu Peak would dote on him. There was no way they’d let anything happen to Wang Xingpeng, and in the end he would definitely come after me, so I simply fled Tian Nan Peak."
Yang Fei nodded silently.
That family of three on Tianzhu Peak really were freaks, especially that Wang Xingpeng. If Sun Xingyu hadn’t escaped, the man would absolutely have settled accounts in the autumn.
"You both know my abilities. My Realm may not be high enough, but when it comes to running away, my understanding of the Space Law lets me move like a fish in water. That day, after I shook off the Shang Qing Sect disciples’ Tracking, I first hid for a while, and only left the vicinity of Tian Nan Peak a few days later. I thought that after changing my name and identity, I’d be able to scrape by in this vast Southern Domain Cultivation World, but in the end I still underestimated how vicious Wang Xingpeng is."
Qin Yanyang saw Sun Xingyu pause, her gaze sharpening slightly, and said, "Wang Xingpeng sent people to keep hunting you down?"
Sun Xingyu nodded. "Yeah. The Shang Qing Sect’s influence is too strong. I was already hiding well enough, but in the end I was still exposed. Fortunately, by the time I was exposed, I’d already reached the border area between the Shang Qing Sect and West Phoenix Valley. I could use the Space Law to escape, but the Divine Sense consumption was massive. Among the killers chasing me was a Core Formation Master. By the time those cultivators chased me all the way to West Phoenix Valley, I was at the end of my rope. At the brink of life and death, it was Xi Hua who saved me."
Hearing him address Fairy Xihua as "Xi Hua" in such a casual way made Yang Fei feel a bit weird.
He didn’t know why, but he always felt a bit hung up about Yan Xihua’s age in his heart.
Compared to Sun Xingyu, Yan Xihua could be his ancestor’s ancestor’s ancestor.
But when that beautiful face and graceful figure of Yan Xihua flashed through his mind, Yang Fei felt it wasn’t exactly unacceptable, either.
"The ones chasing you were all cultivators from the Shang Qing Sect?" Yang Fei asked.
Sun Xingyu shook his head. "No."
Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang were both startled.
Sun Xingyu said, "When Xi Hua captured that Core Formation Cultivator, she interrogated him. They were Loose Cultivators, often doing murder‑and‑robbery jobs, and they’d been hired by Wang Xingpeng to hunt me down."
Yang Fei’s heart burned with hatred.
"Fuck, back on Piaomiao Peak I should’ve just killed him on the spot instead of letting him walk, damn it."
Sun Xingyu’s face was also full of resentment. "It really was a pity. But given the situation back then, if you had really killed him, even if Wan Daorong and Shen Wanjing had both tried their best to protect you, with that couple from Tianzhu Peak’s temperament, you would only have ended up dead."
Thinking back to that scene, Yang Fei nodded. "You’re right. That bastard Wang Yuanxiao did have killing intent toward me back then, especially that old witch. Damn it, this breath of resentment, I’m definitely going to vent it someday."
Sun Xingyu said, "Since I didn’t die, I’ll definitely settle the score with that couple from Tianzhu Peak."
Qin Yanyang reminded them, "It’s enough that you two brothers keep this in your hearts. Don’t shout it everywhere. That couple from Tianzhu Peak are powerful themselves, and behind them they’ve got the Shang Qing Sect, one of the strongest Sects in the Southern Domain, backing them. If you want revenge on them, that’s a long way off."
Sun Xingyu nodded. "You’re right. This grudge can only be repaid slowly when the chance comes. But Wang Xingpeng had better not go out alone. If I get the chance, I’m definitely going to tear him to pieces, or I won’t be able to swallow this anger."
"Right, Yang Fei, you and little sister‑in‑law should stay here with me. The Southern Domain World is full of masters. Even though you’re both already at Core Formation, it’s still too dangerous to wander around outside. Staying here is relatively safer," Sun Xingyu said to Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang.
Yang Fei thought for a moment, then shook his head. "I’m still going back to the Shang Qing Sect."
Sun Xingyu reminded him, "That couple from Tianzhu Peak are especially vindictive. They’ll definitely look for a chance to come at you. Even if they don’t kill you outright because of the Genetic Liquid Medicine, crippling your Cultivation, or using some other way to torture you, isn’t impossible. Since you’ve already left the Shang Qing Sect, the sky’s high and the birds can fly. Why go back?"
"Wrong. If I don’t go back to the Shang Qing Sect, that’s what’s really dangerous. By then it won’t just be that pair from Tianzhu Peak who want to kill me— the entire Shang Qing Sect won’t let me go. Besides, there are so many people still in the Shang Qing Sect; I can’t ignore whether they live or die," Yang Fei said.
Sun Xingyu frowned slightly. He understood Yang Fei’s character and knew Yang Fei would never disregard the lives of those Earth Cultivators still in the Shang Qing Sect.
Yang Fei changed the subject. "Forget about this depressing stuff. Old Sun, tell me, how did you get her so completely wrapped around your finger?"
Even Qin Yanyang couldn’t help pricking up her ears, looking at Sun Xingyu with curiosity.
Sun Xingyu’s face flushed a bit. He coughed lightly to cover his embarrassment and said, "I’m handsome, man, and I’ve got charm. What else could it be?"
Yang Fei curled his lip. "The Cultivation World is full of handsome men and pretty women. There are plenty whose looks beat yours hands down. It’s not like she’s never seen a good‑looking guy. How could she suddenly be bewitched by you?"
Sun Xingyu said, "Feelings are the hardest thing to explain. Back then, Minister Qin was so outstanding, and you looked like crap when you first returned to the country, but she still fell for you, didn’t she?"
Yang Fei said, "Yanyang and I fell for each other gradually from being together day and night."
Sun Xingyu said, "Same here. We fell for each other over time."
Yang Fei couldn’t hold back and asked, "You mean the proper kind of ’falling for each other over time’?"
Qin Yanyang’s pretty face flushed as she twisted his arm.
In front of Qin Yanyang, Sun Xingyu couldn’t joke too crudely, but in his heart he was secretly smug: No shit it was. I’ve kept decades of Pure Yang, and I’m at the Peak of Late-stage Foundation Establishment. My body’s tough as steel. Of course I can "over time"— if it’s not long enough, how are feelings supposed to develop?
Also, Yang Fei had publicly shared that set of Cultivation Technique from the Taoist side back then, and Sun Xingyu had since switched to cultivating the orthodox Profound Sect Taoist Cultivation Technique. He understood the orthodox Dual Cultivation Technique. After being with Yan Xihua, she had benefited greatly.
Though it wasn’t appropriate to bring this up in front of Qin Yanyang, there was another important reason Sun Xingyu felt he couldn’t hide from Yang Fei, so he said, "The Genetic Liquid Medicine deserves some credit too."
Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang’s pupils shrank slightly. The latter asked, "She’s taken it?"
Sun Xingyu nodded. "She took the remaining Genetic Liquid Medicine I had on me, and the effect was pretty good."
Yang Fei’s expression shifted. "You told her about Earth as well?"
"Sun Lang hides nothing from me. Of course I know about Earth. You’re worried that now I know everything, I’ll force you to stay in West Phoenix Valley, aren’t you?"
Yan Xihua’s voice suddenly rang out.
As her voice fell, a flash of brilliant light appeared beside the three of them, and Yan Xihua gracefully manifested in the Huxin Pavilion.
