The number on the screen made Yang Genshuo feel somewhat sentimental.
Although only a little over three months had passed in reality, it seemed that a lifetime had almost passed in the game...
This year, Yang Shi turned 100 years old.
Today was not only the banquet for Yang Shi’s hundredth birthday but also the Ancestral Worship Day of the Yang Family.
Cultivators from the entire Danai Dynasty came to celebrate Yang Shi’s birthday!
The two major sects of the Fierce Sun Dynasty also sent envoys to wish Yang Shi well.
The banquet was set up all the way from Bright City to Qingshi Town.
The cultivators from various great Immortal Clans looked at the gathering and expressed deep emotions.
"More than 80 years ago, who would have thought... A spiritless, easily bullied little beggar, would actually create such a vast Immortal Clan, influencing two great dynasties."
"Oh? Sect Leader Yang had such experiences? I thought the Yang Family had always been a powerful family... I’m quite curious, elder, could you talk more about it?"
"Hehe~ Talk more... Let’s not, the twists and triumphs, I could tell you for three days and nights without end, you just need to remember, in the Danai Dynasty, the Yang Family is the most inspirational representative! Just as Sect Leader Yang always says to you young folks..."
"Where there’s a will, there’s a way?"
"Exactly! As long as your will isn’t worn down, anything is possible... even if you lack a Spirit Root."
"Hmm, I always hear people mention Vice Sect Master Yang Shi’s words and achievements."
18-year-old Li Fan nodded innocently.
Li Fan was a cultivator who grew up in the new era, never having experienced darkness. He was born in a Family of Loose Cultivators; although they didn’t have much wealth, the few acres of Spirit Field they owned were enough for his family of three to live and cultivate.
Every day since his birth, the Danai Dynasty had been improving.
He had always heard others say that Yang Shi, Vice Sect Master of the Yang Family, was the savior of the Danai Dynasty... Today, taking advantage of the banquet, he also came to admire this legendary figure.
The old beggar he had just spoken with seemed very excited to chat and took a swig from his bottle, drinking some dark brown liquid with a face full of bliss.
"Kid, let me test you, why is Vice Sect Master Yang respected by all Immortal Cultivation Families and cultivators in the Danai Dynasty?"
Li Fan sniffled, intrigued by the strange aroma, having never drunk it.
"Elder... that’s common knowledge for anyone who’s been to private school, right?"
"Besides the royal Family, cultivating Spirit Fields, eradicating the malpractices in the Danai Dynasty."
"Promoting hybrid Spirit Plants, developing the Devil Wind Forest, reviving the vitality of the Danai Dynasty!" Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
The philosophy of the Yang Family, leading the ideology of the Danai Dynasty.
The old beggar, hearing this, showed a face filled with satisfaction.
"Seeing you young cultivators of the new generation ... even in death, I would die smiling."
The old beggar took a sip of coffee, the aroma tempting Li Fan to lick his lips.
"Today is a day of great joy, let’s not talk about that, as a witness of the era... I’ve witnessed the rampant Demon Cultivators, witnessed the demise of Demon Cultivators, witnessed the grand strategies set by Vice Sect Master Yang with a sweep of his hand... It’s the Danai Dynasty’s fortune to have the Yang Family, the dynasty’s fate is far from over!"
"No! Not only is the fate not over, looking at the cultivators celebrating his birthday today... they have already regained the Yuan Qi that had been harmed by Demon Cultivators for 50 years and even surpassed past achievements!"
The more the old beggar spoke, the redder his face got, gulping down the coffee continuously.
Li Fan couldn’t help but say, "Elder, what is this? Does it taste good?"
"It’s given by Vice Sect Master Yang, you tell me if it could taste bad?"
"Sss~ You know Vice Sect Master Yang?"
At this, the old beggar grinned, "Not only do I know him, I even saved his life back in the day."
What followed was the old beggar’s bragging; Li Fan listened as if entranced, as though experiencing Vice Sect Master Yang’s magnificent life himself.
The captivating storytelling of the old beggar attracted a large number of young cultivators around him.
A crowd gathered here.
There was even a cultivator skilled in Spiritual Architecture Technique who built a platform for the old beggar to better perform.
All things about Yang Shi were endlessly fascinating topics for the cultivators of the Danai Dynasty.
Li Fan secretly made up his mind.
"I must become a great person like Vice Sect Master Yang!"
In contrast, the small Loose Cultivator families gathered here, and many new era Immortal Cultivation Families had their own circles.
For example, the Huang Family of Elder Huang, the first elder of Xuan Stone Sect, the Zhuge Family who rose in the new generation because they found a book on "Mechanical Techniques" in the Ancient Secret Realm, as well as some Immortal Clans that had contributed in the Demon Suppression war.
They were the top forces of the Danai Dynasty today.
Zhuge Yu, fanning himself with a fan, said, "These Loose Cultivators only know a fraction... indeed, the Danai Dynasty owes its present to the Yang Family, but it’s not just about hero-worship and willpower, something intangible, but solid resources, which doubled the overall Cultivation speed of our dynasty’s cultivators!"
"The Yang Family shared the doubled production of Hybrid Spirit Rice, the Five Elements Nourishing Yuan Pill that greatly enhances cultivation speed, and a vast amount of high-quality Immortal Grain from the development of the Devil Wind Forest, which are the keys to our dynasty’s rise."
The steward of the Huang Family chuckled.
"Indeed so... but Vice Sect Master Yang’s personal charisma is also key in inspiring many of the later generations to cultivate in stages."
"Mmm, it’s been a while since I’ve seen Vice Sect Master Yang, I wonder how he is now."
"My ancestor said he’s doing well, often teaching Martial Cultivators in the Martial Arts Hall."
"Martial Cultivators... might be the most terrifying force in our dynasty, right? The other Twelve Dynasties don’t have Martial Saints and talents like Vice Sect Master Yang."
