Chapter 163: Chapter 163: Do you want me to teach him a lesson for you?

Translator: 549690339

On New Year’s Eve, Yang Xiaotian had not expected his parents to rush from Divine Sword City to Tiandou Imperial City.

In addition to his parents, Luo Qing, Liao Kun, Ate, Ali, and others were all there!

“Xiaotian!” Mother Huang Ying called out joyfully from a distance when she saw Yang Xiaotian, then walked quickly from the entrance and gave Yang Xiaotian a big hug.

Huang Ying’s face was reddened from the cold.

But the breath she exhaled was warm.

Yang Chao, Luo Qing, Liao Kun, Ate, Ali, and the others walked quickly towards Yang Xiaotian with joy when they saw him.

“Xiaotian!” “Young master!”

Suddenly, Yang Xiaotian was surrounded by everyone.

With everyone huddled around, the cold wind felt much less biting.

“Father, Mother, what brings you here?” Yang Xiaotian asked with a smile.

His smile was very sweet.

Yang Chao laughed and said, “After finding out you secured the top rank in the Tiandou Academy enrollment assessment, your mother clung to me, insisting we bring her over.”

“So we all just came over.”

Upon hearing this, Huang Ying gave Yang Chao a reproachful look, all coquettish, “Aren’t you the same? You don’t say it, but don’t I know how much you miss our son?”

Yang Chao smiled sheepishly.

Yang Xiaotian felt a warm glow in his heart.

The feeling of having family around is just wonderful.

“Let’s go home,” Yang Xiaotian said to his parents with a smile.

“Yes, let’s go home,” Huang Ying beamed with joy.

Yang Xiaotian took hold of Huang Ying’s hand and walked towards their house.

But Yang Chao laughed and said, “You little rascal, once you have your mother, you forget about your father.”

Huang Ying gave Yang Chao a glare and chuckled, “You’re such a big man; it’s not like you don’t know how to walk.”

Everyone laughed.

Upon returning to the house, Yang Xiaotian said with a smile to everyone, “Tonight, we will eat meat heartily and drink to our heart’s content.”

“Yes, Young Master!”

The response was so loud that it shook the snowflakes off the branches in the courtyard.

So Yang Xiaotian instructed Ate and Ali to take some people to buy meat and wine, various delicious types of Spirit Beast meat, and the tastiest wine from Tiandou Imperial City.

Just as he had said, that night, they ate meat heartily and drank to their heart’s content.

The snow was still floating down.

But the courtyard was warm throughout.

The light from the bonfire lit up every corner of the courtyard.

Before long, the aroma of wine and meat filled the whole courtyard.

It wasn’t until late at night that everyone dispersed.

Yang Xiaotian stood in his own courtyard, pulling out the Heaven-Penetrating Sword Technique Manual and flipping through to the fifteenth move.

Hong Feng had left a message that completing the Heaven-Penetrating Sword Technique would allow him to take charge of the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect, so no matter what cultivation technique he practiced or what swordsmanship divine ability he pondered, he always persisted in cultivating the Heaven-Penetrating Sword Technique without fail.

“One Sword Across the Sky!”

This was the fifteenth move of the Heaven-Penetrating Sword Technique.

This move was not offensive but defensive.

With one stroke of the sword, it cuts across heaven and earth, blocking all forces before him.

If cultivated to Summit Mastery, with this sword unsheathed, no divine power could harm Yang Xiaotian.

Yang Xiaotian inspected the fifteenth move carefully, recalled it once, and then swung the Heaven-Penetrating Sword Technique, instantly sending out a mountain-like Sword Qi.

When this sword was unleashed, the courtyard in front of Yang Xiaotian momentarily vanished from his sight.

Everything was isolated.

Not until the sword’s power faded did everything return to normal.

Yang Xiaotian, recalling the strength and the mysteries of that sword, stood still for a moment before drawing his sword again.

This sword was swifter than the last by a fraction, and its power even more dominating.

After practicing for a while, Yang Xiaotian stopped and thought that tomorrow he would find a river to test this move. If a swing of his sword could completely sever the vast river, then this technique would be considered having reached minor achievement.

“Perhaps, it is time to inquire about the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect,” Yang Xiaotian pondered.

Now, having reached the Martial King Realm, it wouldn’t be long before he could break through to the Martial Ancestor. Although he was not yet capable of taking charge of the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect, he wished to gain some preliminary understanding.

Did Old Meng know about the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect?

Thinking this, Yang Xiaotian summoned the Azure Thunder Python.

“My Lord wishes to inquire about the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect?” The Azure Thunder Python was astonished.

Yang Xiaotian took out the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sword.

“The Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sword!” The Azure Thunder Python was greatly shocked.

Owing to its time spent mostly healing in the Medicine Cauldron these days, this was the first time it had seen the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sword.

Upon learning that Yang Xiaotian had been recognized by the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sword over a year ago, and that he had already mastered the Heaven-Penetrating Sword Technique up to the fifteenth move, the Azure Thunder Python didn’t know what to say for a moment.

As the king of Divine Beasts at the Divine Spirit Realm, it was well aware of what the ten Divine Swords signified.

“The Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect is not located on the Azure God Continent,” said the Azure Thunder Python after a long pause.

“Not here?” Yang Xiaotian was surprised; although he had obtained the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sword, Hong Feng hadn’t elaborated on the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect, so he knew very little about it.

The Azure Thunder Python nodded: “The Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect is on the Myriad Swords Continent, which is far away from our Azure God Continent.” Then it added, “I do not know much about the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect, but its power is extremely strong, probably stronger than the Sky-Stepping Sect.”

“Stronger than the Sky-Stepping Sect!” Yang Xiaotian was greatly shaken.

The Sky-Stepping Sect was the foremost among the ten supreme sects in the Divine Dragon Empire.

If it was stronger than the Sky-Stepping Sect, one could imagine the might of the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect.

“It should be stronger than the Sky-Stepping Sect,” the Azure Thunder Python said. After recalling for a moment, it continued, “Although the Heaven-Penetrating Divine Sect is not in our Azure God Continent, there seems to be a small branch in the Buddha Source Empire. As for its specific location, I am not sure.”

“The Buddha Source Empire!” Yang Xiaotian exclaimed in surprise.

The Azure God Continent was vast and boundless; apart from the Divine Dragon Empire, there were hundreds of empires, and the Buddha Source Empire was one of the well-known empires.

However, the Buddha Source Empire was not close to the Divine Dragon Empire.

The next day.

As dawn broke, Yang Xiaotian stepped out of the courtyard, only to see Xiao Jin already waiting there early.

“Master, Happy New Year! I wish you a year of rapid strength advancement, contrary fate, and overwhelming invincibility,” Xiao Jin greeted as soon as he saw Yang Xiaotian, lifting its beastly legs and earnestly offering a volley of New Year’s blessings.

Seeing Xiao Jin’s comical demeanor, Yang Xiaotian couldn’t help but chuckle and gave the little guy an extra-large red envelope.

A moment later, he took Xiao Jin, his parents, Wu Qi, Luo Qing, and others out to enjoy the New Year’s festivities.

While Yang Xiaotian and his group were out celebrating the New Year, Liu Shuang was accompanying a young man strolling leisurely through the Tiandou Imperial City.

The young man was Zhang Hao, from one of the ten supreme sects of the Divine Dragon Empire, the Mahavairocana Divine Sect. He was a core disciple and also a direct disciple of an elder in the Mahavairocana Divine Sect.

As they walked, Zhang Hao said, “I heard that a few days ago, some brat almost blasted you to death, didn’t he?”

Hearing Zhang Hao mention this incident, Liu Shuang’s face turned red with embarrassment: “That Yang Xiaotian is no ordinary person. Despite his young age, he has already formed three Sword Hearts, and also…”

Zhang Hao scoffed, interrupting him: “Just three Sword Hearts; such talent would at most make him an outer sect disciple in our Mahavairocana Divine Sect.”

Then he suggested, “How about I teach that Yang Xiaotian a lesson for you, break his legs perhaps?”

Liu Shuang was just about to respond when he suddenly stopped, his gaze fixated on the scene ahead. There, Yang Xiaotian was walking towards them with Xiao Jin and the others.
