89: No more fear
However, having experienced several major battles, they were now completely fearless.
If you were to randomly find a child from the Yang family and ask, "Are you afraid?"
Even a Yang family child would dare to hold their head high and say, "What is there to fear?"
Although they were not afraid, everyone still attached great importance to this matter.
Everyone gathered in the meeting hall, discussing strategies to deal with the enemy.
Old Tianyuan was among them, as were many people from the Zhaoxian Pavilion.
The Zhaoxian Pavilion had lost many people in the last battle, and Yang Ming believed they had contributed significantly and could participate in certain internal meetings of the Yang family.
Zhong Mingyi spoke first; he stood up, cupped his hands to the crowd, and began to speak.
"The Zhang family's Grand Elder is in the Earth Moon Realm."
"That Steward Gong is also in the Earth Moon Realm."
"The two of them likely have no difference."
"Steward Gong died at the Yang family."
"This Grand Elder will inevitably meet the same fate."
"With Old Tianyuan and the Family Head presiding."
"Even if the Zhang family sends out more powerhouses, it will be nothing more than courting death."
Old Tianyuan laughed out loud, but after laughing, his expression became quite serious.
"Your words are pleasant to hear, kid, but I don't have that ability."
"Although this Grand Elder is in the same Realm as Steward Gong, their strength is vastly different."
"The Grand Elder is far stronger than Steward Gong. I once crossed hands with him, and I was no match for him."
Having said this, he couldn't help but look at Yang Ming, who had remained silent.
"I wonder if the Family Head has a countermeasure?"
"I heard that the Yang family has been attacked several times, yet you have never made a move. I wonder how your strength is?"
Many people were privately discussing Yang Ming's strength. A considerable number of people believed that Yang Ming was extremely strong and was deliberately hiding his strength.
But there was also a portion who believed that Yang Ming might have too low of a strength, which was why he had been slow to act.
Everyone couldn't help but feel suspicious. The group looked at Yang Ming in unison, all hoping that Yang Ming could give them some confidence at this critical moment.
They didn't need him to show off any skills in front of everyone; they just needed him to say a word of encouragement, to say something like "My strength is very strong," and everyone would be satisfied.
However, Yang Ming smiled lightly, did not answer, and instead changed the subject.
"A single Grand Elder is not worth worrying about. What I am thinking about now is how to uproot the entire Zhang family. I wonder what brilliant plans you all have?"
Everyone's hearts sank. They asked about his cultivation, yet he replied that he wanted to uproot the Zhang family. It was not answering the question asked; it was likely an act of being guilty or insecure.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the meeting hall became somewhat strange. Many people lost their composure and panicked.
"Why won't you answer my question?" Old Tianyuan asked bluntly, not giving Yang Ming any Face.
Yang Ming laughed, "Do you all want to know my cultivation that much? What if you know? What if you don't?"
"My cultivation is calculated by the day. Today I am in the Earth-Walking Realm, and tomorrow I might be in the Earth Moon Realm. So if I answer you today, my Realm will change tomorrow."
Upon hearing Yang Ming say this, Old Tianyuan laughed, "If that's truly the case, that would be great. Within three days, you could wipe out the Zhang family all by yourself. Why would you need our help?"
"The Zhang family has many people. I am a lazy person and don't want to make a move personally. As for my Realm, since you all want to know, I will let you see it."
As his voice fell, a burst of Aura erupted from Yang Ming's body. This Aura was like a thunderclap, leaving everyone feeling blank in their minds.
In just an instant, the terrifying Aura returned to Yang Ming's body. Everyone immediately lost the uncomfortable feeling, as if everything that had just happened was a dream.
Everyone was shocked. Even Old Tianyuan was stunned into silence. What a terrifying guy. No wonder he dared to boast that his cultivation changed daily; he was truly extraordinary.
Even though he had already reached the Earth Moon Realm, he couldn't see through this guy's cultivation. Just as he was pondering, Yang Ming suddenly took out the Yellow-Rank Bloodline gifted by the System.
"Everyone, look, what is this?"
Everyone looked up slightly at the object on Yang Ming's table. It was a sphere similar to a night-luminescent pearl, with smooth, flowing light inside, and a faint, special Aura spreading outwards.
Carefully sensing that Aura, it felt like a restless Yuan power, but it wasn't quite like it. Most people couldn't identify this object.
However, Old Tianyuan was knowledgeable and saw at a glance that this object was a type of Bloodline, though he didn't know what kind of Bloodline it was.
He stood up in surprise, took a few quick steps to the table, and stared intently at the Bloodline before him, shocked.
"This is actually a legendary Bloodline! How could you possess such a thing?"
"Is this thing rare?" Yang Ming asked with a smile.
Old Tianyuan said, "Rare? It is practically unseen in the world."
"Everyone should know what a Bloodline is. Generally, a Bloodline is in Fusion with a person. When the person dies, the Bloodline disappears. It can be said that a Bloodline cannot appear independently."
"Its appearance is basically closely related to humans. Of course, there are exceptions, just like the Yellow-Rank Bloodline in the Family Head's hand."
"Although it is the lowest-grade Bloodline, if someone possesses this Bloodline and implants it into their body, it will definitely allow this person to accomplish something. Becoming an overlord of a region would not be difficult."
Everyone also knew the preciousness of a Bloodline. A Bloodline could not only change a person's Aptitude but also change their destiny. Although it was the lowest-grade Bloodline, it was still extremely rare.
And it was a Bloodline that could be transplanted onto someone else. For such a Bloodline, one could say that even if traded for an entire city, no one would give it back.
In addition to the shock, everyone couldn't help but show suspicious expressions. What was the reason the Family Head suddenly took this out?
"Family Head, why did you take out such a precious thing? Could it be that you want to reward us?" He shamelessly said a dishonest word. He knew the Family Head could not possibly give this item to everyone, but he still wanted to test him.
Yang Ming laughed, "I won't give it to you for now. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will naturally give you such things. I am not lacking in them."
Everyone was skeptical, feeling that Yang Ming was just comforting them.
"Since it is not to be given to us, what is your intention in taking this out?"
Yang Ming casually picked up the Yellow-Rank Bloodline, as if holding a night-luminescent pearl, playing with it casually in his hand, and chuckled nonchalantly.
"This item is considered quite precious. If I use this as a reward to entice someone to kill the Zhang family's Grand Elder, I wonder if that is feasible?"
Everyone's eyes lit up, and Old Tianyuan slapped the table in admiration.
