Chapter 1351
1351 Lifting The Fog
It looked like Wu Juecheng had come to know a great deal about him during this period of time when he was at the Chu Clan .
In the Chu Clan, there were Chu Feiyan, Mo Qingwu and his parents . And now, Dong Wushang, Rui Butong, Mo Lei’er were there too…
If Wu Juecheng wanted to find out something, it really was very possible that he could link together everything that he had done in the Upper, Middle and Lower Three Heavens!
And put together a complete picture of Chu Yang!
“The reason why Chu Xiongcheng was able to recover is because you gave him the Mysterious Ice Jade Core and the Mysterious Yang Jade Core . Chu Feiling’s sudden improvement in his cultivation was because you gave him an elixir…”
Wu Juecheng spoke slower and slower, the fog shrouding his face turning thicker and thicker .
Chu Yang hadn’t been able to see his eyes and face clearly since a long while ago . And now, he couldn’t even see his hair as well .
“Moon Breeze’s injuries healed very quickly . In Mo Qingwu’s possession is a saber that you had given her; it is indeed a superb weapon… As for you, you underwent a sudden transformation and became a divine doctor… You were the one who cured Le’er’s illness and you even got hold of the Heaven Nourishing Jade…”
“Back then, during the Slaying of the Tao, Moon Breeze had already become unable to continue fighting . But after Bu Liuqing guarded them for a short time while they treated their injuries, they suddenly became energetic and full of vigor again…”
“I heard that in the Middle Three Heavens, you have seven to eight other brothers with whom you go through life and death with and share both joy and woe with…”
With a wry smile, Chu Yang listened to Wu Juecheng’s analysis .
He waited quietly for Wu Juecheng’s conclusion .
But when Wu Juecheng’s words reached this point, he suddenly stopped speaking . Instead, he sank into deep thought…
The atmosphere was so heavy that Chu Yang was somewhat unable to catch his breath .
“Earlier, I talked about my brothers…” Wu Juecheng then suggested, “Chu Yang, tell me about those brothers of yours?”
A resigned Chu Yang replied, “Even if I don’t… you’re already aware of everything . With your experience, getting Qingwu to give you more details about this… is definitely not a difficult task for you . ”
Wu Juecheng chuckled . He said, “It wasn’t all from Qingwu . There are also Wushang and Butong; they are at the Chu Clan too . The moment those two fellows returned, they got me to guide them in their martial arts . ”
Chu Yang made a sound of acknowledgment .
“Wushang is imposing and domineering . His presence is even stronger than my Fourth Younger Brother’s!”
“I heard that you have another brother named Gu Duxing . His name includes the two characters ‘Du xing’, and is ranked second . He’s sharp and cold, and sturdy and indestructible!” Wu Juecheng went on . “Even compared to my Second Brother, he doesn’t fall short by much . ”
“I heard that Mo Qingwu has an elder brother, Mo Tianji . His name includes the two characters ‘Tian ji’ . He has a perfect grasp of what’s happening and wins the battle from a thousand miles away . This reminded me of my Fifth Younger Brother, Ximen Wanli . ”
Wu Juecheng paused for a moment . Then, he asked, “Chu Yang, if there comes a day where you must sacrifice your brothers because of something, what will you do?”

Chu Yang was silent . After a long while, he asked, “Will you believe what I’m going to say?”
Wu Juecheng replied, “I will! I will believe whatever you say!”
Chu Yang went through a short internal struggle, almost blurting, “I will never harm my brothers!”
But before the words left his lips, he swallowed them back down . He said calmly, “This world hasn’t reached the point of forcing me to do so yet!”
Wu Juecheng seemed to be smiling .
But his face was shrouded in a mass of cloudy fog, so Chu Yang couldn’t see his expression .
Then, Wu Juecheng said, “Chu Yang, let me tell you a story? A very complete story . ”
Chu Yang sighed . “I’m all ears . ”
And so, Wu Juecheng, in a very slow and deep voice, began his narration .
The story began from the point where a teenage boy left his clan and what he did after that . The main character of the story stayed as a teenage boy throughout; he improved, grew up, made brothers and friends, and he explored the world with his brothers… How the Boss treated him, how the Boss treated his brothers, and some of their experiences…
Wu Juecheng spoke .
And Chu Yang listened .
Chu Yang knew what Wu Juecheng was talking about in this story, and Wu Juecheng also knew that Chu Yang knew what he was talking about . There was a tacit understanding between them .
It had already been a very long time since the point where the story had taken place, but there was no pause whatsoever from the moment Wu Juecheng started narrating . He spoke fluently, as though all of these were imprinted in his mind and would never fade even after thousands of years .
In the final part of the story, the brothers united the continent . When Wu Juecheng reached this point, he came to a sudden stop .
With a heartbroken sigh, he said, “Chu Yang, how perfect would it have been if the story had ended here . ”
Chu Yang agreed wholeheartedly .
Indeed, if the story had ended at this point where Wu Juecheng had paused, it would practically have been perfect!
A talented scholar and his beautiful lover, a brave and courageous hero, staying together in life and death, and sharing joy and woe! Working diligently together and fighting bravely and finally reaching his goal… He had done it!
“Chu Yang, tell me, will the Boss in the story, due to certain matters, have no choice but to kill his brothers?” Wu Juecheng asked .
Chu Yang fell silent .
Wu Juecheng was silent too .

After a long while, Wu Juecheng finally got up . “I hope that you will be able to give me an answer someday!”
He stood tall and straight on the mountain summit, cutting a solitary figure there . “This is my only wish, and also the only chance I will give!”
Chu Yang remained silent .
Wu Juecheng continued calmly . “When that day comes and you do not give me an answer, I will kill you!”
He said coldly, “Lady Zi has already left . In this world, there will not be a second Lady Zi to protect you . If I wish to kill you, even if you’re a ninth-grade Supreme Martial Artist and even if Ning Tianya and Moon Breeze come together to protect you, it will be difficult for you to escape death!”
Chu Yang replied impassively, “I wish to know the answer too! But it’s pointless to threaten me . If you threaten me, I will not tell you even if I know the answer!”
Wu Juecheng snorted .
Chu Yang suggested, “Elder Wu, how about we strike a deal?”
“What kind of deal?” asked Wu Juecheng, his eyebrows raised .
“The deal is that… During this period of time, you cannot mess up my plans or interfere with my actions… And I don’t wish to receive any sort of pressure from you . ”
“When… the time is right, perhaps… you will still have…”
Chu Yang gritted his teeth . “…the chance to see those eight brothers of yours!”
Wu Juecheng jerked violently, the fog shrouding his face suddenly dispersing in a poof . Forgetting himself, he grabbed Chu Yang’s shoulders . “What?”
Chu Yang’s shoulders were grabbed so forcefully by him that cracking sounds could be heard, but there was no change in his tone or expression . “You heard me right!”
Wu Juecheng slowly loosened his grasp . Staring at Chu Yang in a stupefied daze, he involuntarily took a couple of steps back . Then, unable to hold it back anymore, he suddenly let out a long howl into the sky!
His howl of his made the world change!
“I will wait!” Wu Juecheng stated heavily .
Then, without any warning, tears suddenly flowed from his eyes . He felt extremely flustered . He wanted to say something, yet he only felt his throat tighten . Unable to speak, he hastily shut his mouth . Only after a long while did he finally say with a hoarse voice, “No matter how long it takes… I’ll wait!”
A wave of sorrow welled up in Chu Yang’s heart as he replied, “But… Your cultivation needs to improve!”
Wu Juecheng raised his head, the tears on his cheeks suddenly evaporating . All of a sudden, he seemed to return to being in high spirits!
As if that unrestrained and unorthodox noble young man from tens of thousands of years ago had reappeared in front of everyone once more!
“My cultivation needs to improve…” Wu Juecheng said slowly, “Which is to say that my level of cultivation is already holding them back… Which is to say… that they are not in this realm, which is to say…”

“Which is to say, you’ll need to work hard from now on!” A smiling Chu Yang interrupted him .
Wu Juecheng was stunned . Then, he nodded with a smile . “Yes! I should start working hard now…”
There was a look of hopeful yearning in his eyes .
This was the first time such a look had ever appeared in Wu Juecheng’s eyes in these last tens of thousands of years!
In fact, he didn’t even ask further . Neither did he harbor any doubts .
Because he didn’t dare to .
He didn’t dare to allow this ray of hope that had suddenly appeared shatter under his persistent questions! He’d rather believe in it like a silly person!
“To be honest, even I myself cannot tell… if this is good or bad for you…” Chu Yang thought to himself .
“Elder Wu, I would like to ask you something! In the Nine Heavens continent, where is the place where luck and fortune are the greatest?” asked Chu Yang .
“The place where luck and fortune are the greatest?” Wu Juecheng’s brows drew together . “For the past several tens of thousands of years, feng shui of the land changes once every ten thousand years . How can it be so specific?”
Chu Yang’s eyes brightened . “That means…”
“Wherever the Nine Super Clans are located are naturally the places where luck and fortune are the greatest!” Wu Juecheng said haughtily, “Do you think the Nine Super Clans chose their clan sites for no reason?”
His answer caused deafening claps of thunder to ring in Chu Yang’s ears!
Wherever the Nine Super Clans are located!
In that case, the number one clan among the Nine Super Clans, the Ye Clan, was the place where fortune was the richest!
‘The night is cold and chilly’!
So that was what it was! So it was referring to this ‘ye[1]’!
‘Violet Aura from the East, a bright moon comes out above the mountains . When heaven and earth are covered in the same light, the night is cold and chilly’!
The Ye Clan, a timing where heaven and earth shine at the same time, a mysterious location… Luck was necessary!
Instantly, Chu Yang felt like a fog had been lifted right before his eyes!
He got it now!
The joy in his heart in this instant was truly indescribable . He had the urge to let out a long howl into the sky!
But when he turned back, he was taken aback .
The sky was already dark .
Wei Wuyan had already been laid to rest!
Right now, Wan Renjie and the other two were filling the grave with earth .
Instantly, Chu Yang’s mood turned heavy and somber again . Grabbing a large slab of rock, he dealt it a heavy strike and turned it into a stone tablet, which he erected in front of Wei Wuyan’s grave .
‘The grave of my beloved friend, Wei Wuyan’!
It was a very normal and very regular tombstone!
After contemplating for a moment, Chu Yang’s fingers moved rapidly above the tombstone and inscribed another row of words .
A gentleman among men and a hero of the world; all who stand before him are ashamed[2]!
When they saw this row of words, Wan Renjie and the other two revealed a look of pride .
Indeed, who in this world was capable of what Wei Wuyan had done? To repay his Teacher’s kindness, he spent a thousand years doing the same thing! Because he had let down his wife and child, he couldn’t let go even in death!
Even though it was all because of a terrible scam, Wei Wuyan’s moral character, however, was clear to all!
“Chu Yang, when we storm into the Chen Clan, the three of us must definitely be there!” Wan Renjie declared loudly . There were looks of firm resolution on Cheng Duying and Bao Buhuan’s faces as well!
“Alright . ” Chu Yang agreed with much emotion . Then, he suddenly noticed that Wan Renjie was holding something in his hand . “What’s that?”
Wan Renjie raised his arm . In his hand was actually a severed arm!
“This is Wei Wuyan’s arm! I severed it from his body!” Wan Renjie clenched his jaw and gnashed his teeth . “When the time comes, I am going to use Brother Wei’s arm and smash the Chen Clan members’ heads to bits one by one! And let him take revenge with his own hand! After that, I’ll bury it here once more!”
Chu Yang was silent for a moment . Then, he said, “Give it to me! I’ll do it!”
