Chapter 1005: Chapter 1002: Martial Arts for All
"Brother!"
After calming down a bit, Yang Wen threw herself into Yang Fei’s arms.
Yang Fei held her tenderly, gently patting her back, and comforted, "Alright, alright, it’s okay now. It’s all my fault for being late and scaring you."
Yang Wen hummed softly, shook her head, and said, "It’s just as well. I thought we were all going to die here."
Aunt Zhao Guifang was also shaken, for everyone fears death. Though she had already lost her husband, she was only a little over fifty and still hoped that Yang Wen would get a job after university and help Yang Hao and Huang Qiaoqiao raise their grandchildren.
Those bandits earlier were truly ruthless. Thinking about what could have happened to Yang Wen if she fell into their hands made her heart race. She couldn’t help but say, "Yes, Xiao Fei, you came just in time, or the consequences would have been unimaginable."
Yang Fei said to her, "Sorry for scaring you, Aunt. Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, I won’t let you face such situations again."
Zhao Guifang, being a simple rural woman, was utterly confused by the current world, feeling lost and indecisive, and she looked toward her son Yang Hao.
Yang Hao held his wife Huang Qiaoqiao with one hand and his mother with the other, and said to Yang Fei, "Big brother, where do we go next?"
Yang Fei replied, "I went to Binhai and couldn’t find Yang Wen, nor did I meet Xu Xingzhou and Uncle Mao. I thought they must have rescued Yang Wen and might have gone to Jiangbei Yunwu Mountain’s Base, so I came back to take you all to Yunwu Mountain’s Base. It’s relatively safer there. I didn’t expect to encounter this situation."
Xu Xingzhou said, "Mr. Yang, we were lucky you arrived in time. Otherwise, I’m afraid Uncle Mao, Zhang Long, and the others wouldn’t have withstood it and would have failed you."
Uncle Mao hung his head in shame.
Zhang Long and Zhu Wenjie were even more ashamed.
However, Yang Fei was deeply grateful to them and sincerely said, "Many thanks to you all for protecting my family this time. In this chaotic world, we’ll support each other and make progress together in the future."
After exchanging words of courtesy, Yang Fei asked Mo Deqiang, "I wonder if the Mo Family is willing to go to Yunwu Mountain’s Base?"
The Mo Family initially didn’t want to leave their hometown.
They were undeniable landlords and wealthy people in Huangyang County, living comfortably and not wanting to go anywhere.
However, after the ordeal with those bandits, the Mo Family realized the times had indeed changed.
It’s become extremely unsafe.
When the Hidden Sect members descended into the world, there were millions of them, with hundreds of thousands stepping into the Inner Strength, and tens of thousands in the Energy Transformation Realm.
These people are now scattered across the Divine Continent, and many have likely become bandits.
The Mo Family preserved a large amount of wealth and food during the catastrophe, and if they meet people from the Hidden Sect again, they would surely be targeted.
So, after only a brief consideration, Mo Deqiang decisively said, "If Mr. Yang doesn’t mind us being a burden, the Mo Family is willing to go to a safer place."
Yang Fei said, "After this natural disaster, the world is devastated, countless people have died, and now the Divine Continent lacks manpower. The Mo Family preserving such a large living force is truly a blessing for the Divine Continent."
Mo Deqiang asked, "When do we set off?"
Yang Fei glanced at everyone and said, "It’s getting dark, and traveling at night is inconvenient. Besides, you’ve just been scared, and you’re still hungry, so there’s no rush. Pack your belongings tonight and take the valuable things. We’ll set off early in the morning."
"That would be best." Mo Deqiang sighed in relief.
The Mo Family had many women, children, and elderly, and with transportation inconvenient, they practically had to travel on foot. If they traveled at night, it would be hard for everyone to adapt.
So, everyone cleaned and tidied up the scene.
Without corpses and the blood and meat of the dead around, Yang Wen, Huang Qiaoqiao, Xia Bingqing, and the Mo family’s women turned back to their normal complexions.
It was their first time witnessing such a slaughter scene, and it truly frightened them.
On the other hand, Xu Xingzhou, Uncle Mao, Zhang Long, Zhu Wenjie, and the martial artists of the Mo Family, although terrified by the previous danger, were not at all frightened by the fact that Yang Fei exterminated all those bandits. Instead, they admired him greatly.
How great it would be if they could have such power to turn the tide!
As Martial Artists, who wouldn’t aspire to a higher realm?
The power Yang Fei displayed today completely overturned their understanding of martial arts, so after cleaning up the site, when everyone gathered to barbecue and drink, Xu Xingzhou couldn’t help but ask, "Mr. Yang, what realm have you reached now? I didn’t even see you, just heard your voice coming from afar, and in the blink of an eye, you were here. Such speed!"
Uncle Mao, Zhang Long, Zhu Wenjie, and Mo Deqiang were all very interested in this matter and looked toward Yang Fei.
Yang Fei said, "I guess I’m at the Foundation Establishment Realm now."
"Foundation Establishment?" Everyone was stunned. Mo Deqiang said, "I’ve never heard of such a realm in martial arts."
Yang Fei said, "I suppose it counts as a cultivation realm."
"Ah, cultivation?" Yang Wen couldn’t help but exclaim, "Brother, are you talking about the kind of cultivation in novels, with immortality and boundless mana?"
Yang Fei chuckled and nodded, "Sort of. To ordinary people, my methods are practically immortal skills."
Everyone remembered that he didn’t even come into contact with the enemies, just sent a palm strike from afar, and a dozen martial arts experts were turned into a mass of flesh. If such methods aren’t immortal skills, what are they?
Yang Hao couldn’t help but ask, "Brother, that breathing technique you taught me before, is it also a cultivation method?"
Yang Fei looked at him and saw that his spirit was much better than that of an average strong man, so he slightly nodded and said, "Yes, what I cultivate is this technique, the Taoist Profound Sect’s authentic breathing technique. Once you cultivate Inner Strength, you’ll have plenty of stamina, and your cultivation will grow quickly. I see your spirit is good; you must practice often, right?"
Yang Hao nodded, his face a bit flushed, and said, "I practice diligently every night, but it’s been almost a year with little effect. I... I don’t think I’m cut out for martial arts."
Yang Fei quickly said, "Don’t underestimate yourself. It took me several years to cultivate Inner Strength. It’s not easy. But things are different now. The spiritual energy on Earth is getting denser. If you train diligently, you might step into the ranks of Inner Strength in a few months, or even sooner. Once we get to Yunwu Mountain’s Base, I’ll give you some genetic liquid medicine to see if your constitution can be improved."
Yang Hao delightedly said, "Really, brother? So... I can also become a martial arts expert?"
Yang Fei nodded, "If you work hard, you definitely can. It’s not bragging; with the resources I have now, I can definitely help you wash essence and cut marrow, letting you grow at the fastest pace to become a martial arts expert."
Yang Hao felt both happy and touched.
Xu Xingzhou, Uncle Mao, and Zhang Long looked at Yang Hao with envy.
They knew better than anyone that Yang Fei wasn’t boasting at all.
With the resources Yang Fei now controlled, helping someone become a martial arts expert was absolutely not difficult.
