2: The patriarch is mighty!

Invest?

Is that even a question?

If it were just ordinary talent,

the System probably wouldn't even bother prompting.

For the System to actively prompt, and for it to be a green quality talent at that, in a small place like Tian Yuan City, this could already be considered extraordinary Genius.

If I were to focus on nurturing him further...

This would be the Family's future Genius.

Thinking this, Yang Yi no longer hesitated. Following the System's...

At this glance,

his eyes instantly widened.

This!

This was actually his adopted son, Yang Ming!

Although Yang Ming shared the Yang surname, he was actually a child Yang Yi had rescued by chance many years ago while training outside.

Back then,

the child's aptitude was already quite good.

The reason Yang Yi had gone into seclusion

was precisely because, half a year ago,

his adopted son Yang Ming had achieved a Breakthrough, successfully entering the Yuantong Realm in one go.

The so-called Yuantong Realm meant the unification of internal and external Qi energy,

granting one unfathomable, immense power.

In Tian Yuan City, that already made one a local powerhouse.

Moreover,

this Yang family was originally the number one Family in all of Tian Yuan City.

With a Yuantong Realm expert presiding over it,

let alone eight years,

even another eight years

shouldn't have been a problem.

"Ming'er, you've done well!" Yang Yi took a deep breath, a trace of warmth appearing in his eyes.

"For such a thing to happen to the Yang family, I have failed my father, failed the

Family!" Yang Ming's eyes reddened.

"What exactly happened?

"You've already entered the Yuantong Realm. Besides, our Yang family has many retainers. There shouldn't have been a problem."

Yang Yi shook his head.

"Father, it's all because of me!"

"It's my fault!

Yang Ming spoke through tears, but Yang Yi's expression shifted slightly, not uttering a word.

"Tell me slowly!" Yang Yi, however, didn't seem to mind.

"Five years ago,

"the Family's development was at its peak. I led people to the Source Heaven Secret Realm.

"We gained many benefits within the Secret Realm."

"Who would have thought, a powerful expert intercepted us halfway!"

"Although we resisted desperately, we were no match. The opponent

injured me with a single move!"

"Furthermore, they declared us to be mere ants, and if we were dissatisfied, we could look for the Yun City Zhang Family.

"The one who attacked was merely a servant of the Zhang Family, yet he was already at the Tian Yuan Realm!"

Yang Ming spoke slowly, his voice filled with shock.

"Heh!

"Tian Yuan Realm experts acting as dogs, truly impressive." Yang Yi, however, sneered repeatedly.

The Tian Yuan Realm.

That was a Realm above the Life and Death Realm.

For the other party to have Tian Yuan Realm experts as servants showed their profound heritage. If not for the Investment System, even if he mobilized the entire Yang family, they wouldn't be a match.

That would be like an egg striking a rock, becoming a laughingstock.

But,

now, he, Yang Yi, was not only already at the Life and Death Realm.

Moreover,

he had the Investment System. A mere Yun City Zhang Family,

what was there to fear?

"Father, it's my fault!"

"I've implicated the Yang family!" Yang Ming gritted his teeth hard.

"After that, our Yang family suffered heavy losses in Origin Qi. Many of our retainers,

"seemed to realize the Yang family was severely weakened!"

"They left one after another. And the other three great families, because of this incident, saw the Yang family's decline. Over three years, they continuously swallowed up the Yang family's businesses."

Hearing this,

Yang Yi was slightly moved.

To be honest, this matter had some relation to his own seclusion.

If he, Yang Yi, had emerged from seclusion back then, even if only at the

Yuantong Realm, the other three great families wouldn't have dared to act recklessly.

"Currently, we only have one Secret Realm left!

"Within the clan, talents have withered. Father, I haven't done

well!" Yang Ming knelt on the ground, his gaze full of helplessness.

"No!"

"You've done very well!

"This Cultivation Technique, you Cultivate it first!"

"Only with powerful strength can we solve the current predicament!" As Yang Yi spoke, he took out that copy of the "Return to Origin Art".

"This is...

Yang Ming was stunned.

His eyes were full of astonishment.

From the Aura emanating from the Cultivation Technique, it was completely evident.

This was a Profound Rank Cultivation Technique!

A Profound Rank Cultivation Technique, what did that mean?

On the Xuanwu Continent, Cultivation Techniques were divided into four Ranks.

Yellow Rank, Profound Rank, Earth Rank, Heaven Rank!

Tian Yuan City was already a remote corner,

Yellow Rank Cultivation Techniques weren't lacking,

but, Profound Rank Cultivation Techniques were already the lifelong pursuit of many.

Even so,

many people strive their whole lives, yet might not necessarily obtain a single

Profound Rank Cultivation Technique.

But this time, the Clan Chief had actually taken one out directly.

Moreover, he gave it to him, this adopted son?

Many Family members nearby, witnessing this scene, were

stunned. Many gazes held a look of anticipation.

That was a Profound Rank Cultivation Technique!

If they could have a Cultivation Technique like this, their

strength could improve immensely within a short time.

In this world where strength reigns supreme,

Cultivation Techniques are the foundation!

"Father, this is too precious!" Yang Ming also understood the

importance within.

After just one glance, he tried to push the Cultivation Technique away.

Yang Yi, however, shook his head slightly.

"What you did before is already worthy of obtaining this Cultivation Technique.

"And this is only the beginning. From now on, we will have more resources, more Cultivation Techniques!

"The Clan Chief is mighty!

"The Clan Chief is mighty!

The surrounding Family members, hearing this, had bright eyes.

"Furthermore, starting today, as long as you make contributions, as long as you work for the Family, you can all Cultivate this Return to Origin Art!" Yang Yi straightened his posture, his eyes shining even brighter.

"What?

"This!"

Hearing this, the Family members instantly erupted.

This was a Profound Rank Cultivation Technique!

A Cultivation Technique that countless people couldn't obtain even after a lifetime of striving, yet they

never imagined the Clan Chief would be so generous!

With a Profound Rank Cultivation Technique as an aid!

The entire Yang family soaring to greatness was only a matter of time.

"The Clan Chief is righteous!

"The Clan Chief is righteous!

All the Family disciples, in that instant, boiled over with excitement.

"The Yang family is mighty!

"The Clan Chief is mighty!

For a time, many clansmen were in an uproar.

The Clan Chief's words, seemingly not carrying much force,

but,

instantly gave hope to all the clansmen.

[Ding!]

[Detected the Yang family regaining confidence. Family Luck has doubled!]

[Reward host with 3 investment points. Current investment points: 5]

Hearing this,

Yang Yi's eyes lit up.

With this Investment System,

most problems were basically solved.

And with the Family's confidence rising,

he could gain more investment points!

This had already formed a closed loop.

As long as confidence rose, all problems could be readily solved.

"All sons of my Yang family, heed my command!"

Yang Yi's voice, amplified by Origin Qi,

instantly spread throughout the entire Family.

"Follow me into battle, and wash the Li Family in blood!"

"Follow me into battle, and wash the Li Family in blood!"

For a time, numerous clansmen followed the shout, the atmosphere instantly surging.

Yang Yi's face, however, was icy cold.

Even without the System's reward, the Li Family deserved this!

"Into battle!"

"Into battle!"

A roaring, tidal wave of sound spread out.

Many eyes gleamed with excitement. Wash the Li Family in blood!

With a Family like this, how could it not prosper!
