Chapter 682: Chapter 681: The Old Man in the Ice Coffin
Wu Xiyue walked over to Wu Chuanyang after chatting with Yang Lihua for a while and said, "Brother, Brother Yang said he will take us up the mountain. Hurry, help Grandma over, and let’s follow Brother Yang up. Brother Yang has been in touch with those divine healers, and with him stepping in, they will surely help treat Grandma’s illness!"
Wu Chuanyang wasn’t pleased with the affection between Wu Xiyue and Yang Lihua, but considering Grandma’s illness, he finally let out a sigh.
"Su Brothers, why don’t you come with us?" Wu Chuanyang said to Su Yang.
"Why should we take them?" Wu Xiyue glared and immediately retorted, "Brother, Brother Yang only agreed to take us, he never said he’d take them. Besides, we’re relatives of the Yang Family, what are they to us, why should we bring them along?"
Wu Chuanyang couldn’t help feeling awkward, but then Yang Lihua came over, smiling, "We’re all packed. In a moment, when the elder comes out, we’ll head up the mountain together. Do you need any help over here?"
Wu Xiyue was delighted, hugging Yang Lihua’s arm, "Brother Yang, thank you for your concern; we’re ready as well."
Yang Lihua basked in the attention, but Wu Chuanyang only felt more embarrassed. He coughed a few times, yet Wu Xiyue acted as though she noticed nothing and completely ignored it.
Wu Chuanyang had no choice but to whisper, "Uh, Brother Yang, we have two more friends here..."
"Brother!" Wu Xiyue was about to scold again, but Yang Lihua simply smiled and said, "Then let’s go together!"
As he spoke, Yang Lihua’s gaze lingered on Jeang Zier, feeling a sense of regret. Such beauty, why did it have to be a man? Still, it was good, since someone in the city liked boys, perhaps bringing him over could even trade for some other information.
"That’s great!" Wu Chuanyang was overjoyed and turned to Su Yang, "Su Brothers, we’ll go together then."
Su Yang had been planning to refuse, but just then, the door of the RV at the back suddenly opened, and a wave of heat rushed out.
Su Yang’s brows furrowed, he turned to look and saw a glass coffin being carried out from the vehicle behind him. Inside the coffin lay an elderly man with snow-white hair. The old man had his eyes closed, and it wasn’t clear if he was alive or dead, but if he was alive, placing him directly in a glass coffin seemed rather inauspicious, didn’t it?
Four men stood around the coffin, lifting it with their hands.
Each of these men was no weakling, all at the peak of Qi Refinement, lifting the glass coffin as if it was nothing.
This, too, was sufficient proof of the Yang Family’s formidable strength. Those at the peak of Qi Refinement acting as coffin bearers?
"This..." Wu Chuanyang was astounded.
"It’s indeed the Family Head!" Yang Lihua sighed, his expression turning somber.
Wu Chuanyang wanted to say something but held back. He really wanted to ask whether this was life or death.
Su Yang had been about to refuse, but after seeing the glass coffin, he stopped speaking. His brow slightly creased, he carefully observed the elderly man inside the coffin, felt the heat in the air, and thought deeply.
No wonder everyone said Old Yang’s illness was strange. Now that Su Yang saw it for himself, he was also shocked. He vaguely felt that the heat was unusual. However, without personal contact, he couldn’t clear up the origin of the heat.
As the Yang Family carried the glass coffin up the mountain, Su Yang and the others followed behind, with Su Yang mainly observing the coffin along the way.
Meanwhile, Wu Xiyue stuck close to Yang Lihua, and after a while, the two of them were already holding hands as if they were intimate lovers.
Wu Chuanyang kept sighing and shaking his head, but there was nothing he could do. He knew his sister well and couldn’t control her anyway.
Besides, they still needed the help of the people from the Yang Family.
Although Wu Chuanyang’s family had some savings, their situation had plummeted since a huge change befell their family.
They had managed to put together ten pieces of Supreme Green Jade to enter the mountain, which already meant selling off their assets and accumulating debts. After ascending the mountain, they would not have the money to pay for medical fees. Thus, Wu Chuanyang planned that after going up the mountain, he would beg on his knees if necessary, just to ask those divine doctors to treat the illness.
Now, the Yang Family was wealthy and influential and had long established contact with the Medical Saint Sect, and it seemed they were quite familiar with them. If the Yang Family was willing to speak on their behalf, any of those divine doctors could easily treat his grandmother, which had become another hope for him.
So, even though he knew it was wrong for his sister to act this way, he ultimately said nothing.
As they moved forward and hadn’t been walking for long on the mountain, they encountered the people who had entered before them.
Seeing the odd appearance of those from the Yang Family, naturally, many were drawn over.
When they heard that these were the people from the Yang Family of America, everyone was shocked and rushed over to forge a relationship with Yang Lihua.
Yang Lihua, however, did not turn them away, as the Yang Family planned to further their ventures into Huaxia Country after this. So, making more acquaintances here would be convenient in the future.
Suddenly, an exaggerated voice rang out, "Yo, Young Master Yang, these two as well, are they with you?"
Everyone turned to look and saw a young man looking at Su Yang and Jeang Zier with mockery.
This young man was the same one who was rude to Su Yang at the foot of the mountain. Just now, when Yang Lihua was introducing everyone, Su Yang heard his name; he was said to be from the Xu Family of Hanxi, and the people around him called him Xu Shao.
Yang Lihua looked at Su Yang and Jeang Zier in surprise and asked curiously, "Oh, they’re with us going up the mountain; what about it?"
Xu Shao laughed and said, "Ah, Young Master Yang, your Yang Family of America is really kind-hearted. Taking such small fry up the mountain with you, aren’t you afraid it will affect your family’s reputation?"
"What’s wrong?" Yang Lihua was even more surprised.
"Don’t you know?" Xu Shao laughed, "These two are just here to fish in troubled waters. Didn’t they even fail to produce any Supreme Green Jade and just followed you up the mountain?"
"Is that so?" Yang Lihua narrowed his eyes slightly, glancing at Su Yang with evident dissatisfaction. No wonder these people were following him up the mountain; it turns out they didn’t even have the Green Jade needed to enter!
At this moment, Wu Chuanyang couldn’t help but say, "Mr. Su is a divine physician who has been invited up the mountain; why would he need any Supreme Green Jade?"
"Divine physician?" The crowd buzzed with surprise, as getting an invitation to ascend the mountain was no small feat.
Even Xu Shao was taken aback, looking at Su Yang in astonishment, clearly doubtful. How could someone of his age possibly be a divine physician!
But having an invitation was already a statement. Even members of the Yang Family needed to carry Supreme Green Jade to enter the mountain.
Just then, Wu Xiyue suddenly said, "What divine physician, brother, you’re praising them too much. They’re just the disciples of that Elder Hua, holding Elder Hua’s invitation to go up the mountain. I guess they’re just a couple of interns!"
