Although the issue regarding Tang Hao had been temporarily settled, the fact that Tai Tan served Tang Hao as his master and Tang San as his Young Master had completely ignited Yang Wudi's dissatisfaction with Yun Ming's choice of partner. Yang Wudi suddenly became very calm, his tone unreadable as he asked.
"Yun Ming, today, in my capacity as the Clan Leader of the Breaking Clan, I ask you formally: are you truly going to be with that Saintess of the Martial Soul Hall?"
Yun Ming looked at the seemingly calm Yang Wudi, his heart aching, but there could only be one answer to this question. Yun Ming looked Yang Wudi straight in the eyes and said resolutely.
"Yes!"
Yang Wudi continued to press him.
"Do you have no regrets?"
Yun Ming replied.
"I will not regret it even in death!"
"In this life, I, Yun Ming, will have no one but Ya Li!"
Watching the incredibly firm look in Yun Ming's eyes, Yang Wudi felt deep pain and could no longer hold back. He roared in anger.
"Tai Tan, as the Clan Leader of the Strength Clan, serves Tang Hao and his son as his masters. This is a betrayal of the Strength Clan and a betrayal of the friendship that the Single Attribute Four Clans have held for countless years. I, Yang Wudi, will never tolerate him!"
"And you, as the Young Master of my Breaking Clan and the first in line to succeed as Clan Leader, are stubbornly insisting on being with that Saintess of the Martial Soul Hall. How is what you are doing any different from Tai Tan? How is this not a betrayal of your clansmen and the Breaking Clan itself!"
"Have you thought about the consequences?!!"
Seeing Yang Wudi so incensed, Yang Wutian wanted to step in and mediate, but the moment he started to say "I," he was immediately cut off by Yang Wudi.
"Fifth, shut your mouth!"
Seeing Yang Wudi's attitude, Yang Wutian had no choice but to stand by and watch.
Looking at the somewhat hoarse and desperate Yang Wudi, Yun Ming felt a sense of shame, but he had no choice. After exhaling a breath of stagnant air, Yun Ming responded calmly.
"I have thought about it, and I am willing to pay the price."
"Although I do not believe I am wrong, it is an undeniable fact that I have committed a major taboo within the clan."
"I am different from Tai Tan. He would drag the entire clan's will into servitude, but I will not. He recognizes a thief as his father, but I will never join the Martial Soul Hall."
"I will not suggest anything like crippling my own cultivation or leaving the Breaking Clan; that would be too irresponsible. However, what I can do is—"
At this point, Yun Ming knelt before Yang Wudi and spoke solemnly.
"From this day forward, I, Yun Ming, voluntarily relinquish all power and status within the clan. I will no longer be the Young Master of the Breaking Clan. Henceforth, I shall only serve the clan as an ordinary member to atone for my mistakes!!!"
Yang Wutian's expression changed drastically, and he shouted in reproach.
"Yun Ming, what kind of foolish things are you saying!"
Yun Ming turned his head toward Yang Wutian.
"Fifth Grand Uncle, I am serious."
"If the Young Master were to do this, it would surely lead to extreme dissatisfaction and resentment among the clansmen. If the clansmen do not accept me, how can I remain the Young Master!"
"This is a price I must pay!"
Watching Yun Ming, who would rather give up all his status and position just to be with that Saintess, Yang Wudi finally understood just how firm Yun Ming's will truly was. He felt a bit deflated and said with a bitter smile.
"Fine, I will grant your wish."
"From this moment on, you are no longer the Young Master of the Breaking Clan."
Yang Wutian had wanted to say something more, but Yang Wudi cut him off directly.
"My mind is made up!"
"Unless Yun Ming performs an unparalleled service for the Breaking Clan, this cannot be changed!"
Yang Wutian, who had originally intended to object, suddenly had a strange expression on his face upon hearing Yang Wudi's words, and he fell silent.
Seeing that Yang Wutian had stopped talking nonsense, Yang Wudi continued to ask about the next issue.
"What is this about you discovering top-tier medicinal herbs and your strength increasing greatly, as mentioned in the letter?"
The matter of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was different from the matter of Tang Hao. If news of Tang Hao leaked, at worst, his reputation would be ruined, but if news of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well leaked, it would bring endless trouble to the Breaking Clan!
Therefore, for the sake of safety, Yang Wutian had only passed on some general information to the family. According to the common understanding in the Soul Master World, top-tier medicinal herbs were not widely recognized, and since the herbs were consumed and gone, the risk was much lower.
Yang Wutian first sensed his surroundings to ensure no one was eavesdropping, then used his Soul Power to isolate the room from sound transmission.
Yang Wudi was surprised to sense that Yang Wutian's Soul Power fluctuations were even stronger than his own. Although it hadn't been many years since he broke through to become a Titled Douluo, he hadn't expected Yang Wutian to be stronger than him right after his own breakthrough. These top-tier medicinal herbs were truly effective!
Once Yang Wutian had everything prepared, he began to introduce the situation of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to Yang Wudi.
"Big Brother, what we obtained was not just top-tier medicinal herbs, but also a top-tier medicinal field that allows herbs to grow at ten times the speed."
Subsequently, Yang Wutian told Yang Wudi the entire process of how Yun Ming had obtained the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Yang Wudi: "..."
He had just finished making his harsh statement that Yun Ming could not have his punishment revoked without performing a great service, and Yun Ming had immediately given him a huge surprise. Was this slap to the face not coming a bit too quickly?
After hearing everything Yang Wutian had to say, Yang Wudi was left speechless. That Yun Ming could encounter such a wonderful place was one thing, but more importantly, he had actually managed to take it from the hands of a Titled Douluo.
Yang Wudi was now very grateful to Yun Huang, grateful that he had produced such a good son for the Breaking Clan. What Yun Ming had encountered in reality was something he wouldn't even dare to dream of!
What virtue or ability did he, Yang Wudi, possess to have such a treasure bowl fall from the sky while he sat at home!
Perhaps it was the desire to see exactly which immortal herbs were there, or perhaps the slap in the face had come too quickly, but Yang Wudi could no longer sit still.
He grabbed Yang Wutian and ran out of the room, leaving a single sentence for Yun Ming.
"Get the clansmen settled."
In the blink of an eye, Yang Wudi and Yang Wutian had vanished.
Yun Ming: "."
He then went to find Oscar.
After Yang Wudi and Yang Wutian exited the Hotel, Yang Wudi pointed at Yang Wutian and scolded him.
"Why didn't you say something about this sooner!"
Glancing at their surroundings, Yang Wudi ultimately dared not shout about the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well in public.
Yang Wutian looked at Yang Wudi and said innocently.
"You wouldn't even let me speak, how can you blame that on me?"
Yang Wudi: "."
What could he say? He was speechless. But if you asked Yang Wudi to go back to Yun Ming now and retract his order, he truly couldn't bring himself to do it; as a grandfather figure, he couldn't just cave in to his grandson. Yang Wudi was incredibly restless, and in the end, he could only have Yang Wutian take him to see the new herb garden.
After Yang Wutian brought Yang Wudi to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Seeing that everything here was exactly as Yang Wutian had described, Yang Wudi was so excited he couldn't contain himself. He examined one herb, appraised a ganoderma, and was as happy as a child.
Seeing that Yang Wudi recognized everything, Yang Wutian let him run wild. As long as he wasn't accidentally harmed by some peerless poisonous herb, Yang Wudi's cultivation level was enough for him to stay here for quite a long time.
As for Yang Wutian himself, after consuming the Ninth Grade Purple Ganoderma, he had already adapted to the environment here and could stay as long as he liked.
Yang Wutian waited for an hour. It wasn't until Yang Wudi's initial excitement faded and his reason returned that Yang Wutian began the next step of the process.
Yang Wutian brought Yang Wudi before a medicinal herb as white as jade and spoke to him.
"Big Brother, this Primal Chaos Immortal Herb was picked out for you by Ming Er. Eat it."
"The Breaking Clan needs a Titled Douluo of its own."
Yang Wudi was somewhat moved. He hadn't intended to refuse in the first place, and hearing Yang Wutian mention the Breaking Clan made it impossible to decline. Furthermore, since Yun Ming and the others had already consumed theirs and their medicinal absorption was essentially saturated, Yang Wudi accepted it quite readily.
"Good!"
Seeing Yang Wudi accept it so easily, Yang Wutian felt that his previous behavior of refusing the Ninth Grade Purple Ganoderma seemed rather foolish.
Looking at the garden full of top-tier medicinal herbs and poisonous plants within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Yang Wudi suddenly thought of a way to have Yun Ming reinstated to his former position.
ps: There must be an explanation regarding the matter of Ya Li for the sake of the Breaking Clan; even if it is a case of losing and then regaining, it must be lost once.
