"Wha what did you say?" All three of the popinjays stuttered through the question.

"I dont know if each noble family has their own secret methods but I personally think there is such a possibility." Yun Yang continued, "Do you still remember your double-headed lion? Does it work, after I've trained it?"

"It works, it absolutely works!" Dong Tianleng's agreement was tainted with some small measure of guilt, as he looked at both Chun Wanfeng and Xia Bingchuan awkwardly.

They both snorted in anger and looked towards Yun Yang with heated gazes.

"Actually, the method to train the Double-headed Elysian Lion was previously only limited to increasing its spirituality and breaking through its initial behavior and actions. Although there would be an improvement in its ability, it did not touch the natural classification of mystical beasts level yet. Im still experimenting with the methods to break through the classification barrier. Actually, even if its successful, there might not be much improvement."

Yun Yang knew that the temporary congeniality was not the way to go with these noble young masters.

These four people looked nave but Yun Yang was clearly aware that they were not as simple as they seemed. How could they really be that foolish when they could, one day, be sent out by the four noble families to roam the martial arts world themselves?

These four might look like they were easily deceived but if he really believed that, he would most probably be the biggest fool among them.

He was useful and they wanted to befriend him, they would do whatever it took; however, if he became useless, then they would do whatever it took as well.

Once there was a benefit to cutting ties, it was not impossible for them to betray him. On the other hand, they would be less likely to turn on him if he could promise some sort of benefit and continue to remain as their boss or even subdue them completely.

As for the said benefit, it had to be something they could not reject and could not achieve themselves!

Dong Tianleng was already asking impatiently, "So how much improvement would there be?"

Chun Wanfeng and Xia Bingchuans gazes were heated, as they held their breaths.

"I really dare not say how much it will be now," Yun Yang said, "At most, I can make it go from beginner to pinnacle. It would still be impossible to go pass the level barrier! For example, I can enhance a seventh level beginner mystical beast to the seventh level pinnacle" Yun Yang nodded thoughtfully.

Dong Tianleng was shaking with excitement. "What if its a ninth level beginner mystical beast?"

Yun Yang replied, "Based on the same theory, it would improve to the ninth level pinnacle." He raised his head and looked at Dong Tianleng with some surprise. "You can't infer the outcome from the analogy?"

"Forgive him, he's rather slow." Chun Wanfengs teeth were chattering with delight as he pushed forward and asked, "Boss, are you sure you could really advance a ninth level beginner mystical beast to ninth level pinnacle?"

Yun Yang was stumped and pondered upon it for a bit. He finally replied, "Youve asked the main point of this all. Im really not entirely certain but I want to slowly perfect this study of mine. I guess I've succeeded in a small part of it."

Three pairs of eyes shone even brighter.

"However, fostering a mystical beast to break through its level barrier must start from the point when its young and it must be trained in all aspects." Yun Yang said seriously, "Otherwise, the chance is slim."

"Of course, of course!" Three of them nodded like chickens pecking rice.

Their hearts were thumping vigorously.

How much would the difference between a ninth level beginner mystical beast and a ninth level pinnacle mystical beast be?

The most reserved illustration would be that a ninth level pinnacle mystical beast could effortlessly wipe out ten ninth level beginner mystical beasts!

In addition, this ninth level pinnacle beast might not even be wounded in this battle; it would, at most, be a little tired.

This was the significantly vast difference between the two, the difference between heaven and earth!

Thinking about the early days of the East, South, West, and North families, the Ximen family had only risen to fame because their old ancestors had a ninth level ace mystical beast that their family had developed step by step.

Although Ximen Family had kept boasting that it was a ninth level pinnacle beast, they were all from the eight noble families who would not know the truth?

If their family could own a ninth level pinnacle mystical beast

Three of them were suddenly anxious. They needed to let their family know about this quickly; they had to get their hands on a baby ninth level beginner mystical beast, regardless of the cost!

Dong Tianleng was the most impatient one as he beamed with the aim to please. "If I have a ninth level beginner mystical beast, boss, could you you know... help out?"

Yun Yang rolled his eyes and said, "Can you count the chickens before the eggs hatch? I have had some results with my experiment but please dont assume that I am God. Do you think its easy to foster a mystical beast? This includes a lot of conditions like mystical crystals, spiritual jades, treasured gems, all of them in large quantities. Mainly, Im still exploring. You think high-level mystical beasts are so easily found? That you can lay hands on them anytime you want? However, if you could fulfill all the conditions, we are brothers on clear terms. I can still help you once we set those terms."

Yun Yang sighed. "We are all brothers. Are you fellows calling me boss just for fun? But theres something I need to make clear if this is made known to others, I will never have another peaceful day in my life again"

"We shall never let others know about this!"

Three of them made a wicked oath but all of them were joyous.

The boss had said, "Are you fellows calling me boss for fun?"; he had said "you fellows" and not "you". This meant that everyone was involved.

This was simply amazing!

Nobody would be so foolish as to announce such thing. It was good enough for them to stay quiet and earn from it.

"Also, all of you should work together more in the future" Yun Yang put up the front of a boss and chided, "Four noble families belong to the same root. You fellows are reveling in the misery of Qiu Yunsan being set up, are you not? If I were to be set up in the future, would you fellows do the same to me?"

"Boss, we are in the wrong. We really didnt handle this properly, there wont be a next time!" Dong Tianleng, Chun Wanfeng, and Xia Bingchuan reflected upon themselves sincerely. "We are sure to be united and love each other! If the boss faces anything, we are willing to risk any trouble for you!"

"Shut up! Stop trying to impress me!" Yun Yang rolled his eyes and waved his hand. "I know you fellows are impatient. Go send the message to your families. Come back to drink after that and dont say that I've not been considerate."

"Thank you, boss!" All three of them sprung up at once.

Within a breath, they were gone.

Yun Yang turned and looked at Yun Zuiyue, who sat up straight.

"Young brother, do you have something to say to me?" Yun Zuiyue asked a little worriedly.

"Nothing that is of importance. Sister-in-law, you dont have to be so cautious." Yun Yang smiled easily.

Yun Zuiyue felt like a thunderbolt had just struck her.

Sister-in-law!

Yun Yang had always been reluctant to call her sister-in-law. Why did he call her that so naturally now?

Why?

Moisture shone at the corners of Yun Zuiyues eyes as she trembled in disbelief and delighted surprise. "Young brother, you what what did you call me?"

"Sister-in-law." Yun Yang said again, each word clearly enunciated. "Fifth brother says you are his wife, regardless whether hes dead or alive!"

Yun Zuiyue took two quick breaths, her beautiful face suddenly flushed as tears began to fall.

She covered her mouth; her other hand started to move to wipe away her tears but they lingered on at her side.

"That heartless" Yun Zuiyue sobbed. "Hes finally opened his eyes"

Tears were still streaming down her face as she chuckled. "Im not yet married to him. On what grounds does he flatter himself so"

Yun Yang smiled. "However, I can still only call you Sister Yue in front of others, I hope sister-in-law can forgive me this."

Yun Zuiyue was glowing. "You should. Besides, you will only cause me trouble if you call me sister-in-law."

This was obviously only to comfort Yun Yang.

How Yun Zuiyue wished to let the whole world know that she was now a sister-in-law!

I, Yun Zuiyue, am wedded now!

"Where is he now?" Yun Zuiyue was crying and smiling, asking even as she wiped her tears away.

"He cant come back for the time being." Yun Yang said carefully, "Perhaps hell need a very very long time"

"Ill wait, no matter how long it takes!" Yun Zuiyue stopped Yun Yang from going on with a raised hand and said seriously, "Brother, come, let us have a toast to celebrate that heartless boy, who has finally become a man today!"

Yun Yang did not know whether to laugh or cry.

He wondered how fifth brother Supreme Flame, who had always been like a firebrand, would respond if he had heard this comment.

Yun Zuiyue emptied her goblet. Emotions danced in her eyes with a look of sultriness as she said, "Young brother, do you know? That this is the most gratifying, the most comforting, the most content, and the happiest goblet of wine Ive drunk after so many years!"

"From now on, I am promised to someone in this life!"

"From now on, I have somewhere to pour this love!"

"From now on, I have someplace for this heart to belong to!"

Yun Zuiyue chuckled, her eyes blurred with tears as she said, "From now on, I have no regrets in this life!"

Yun Yang could only feel a wave of sadness gushing upwards, threatening to clog his throat up. He coughed and said, "I am very happy as well."

He raised his goblet to empty it, feeling all sorts of flavors and tastes within that single goblet.

Dong Tianleng and the other two fellows were back soon enough, happily wishing to drink until they passed out. Yun Zuiyue excused herself, saying that she could not stay up late and went back to rest.

Her retreating steps were extremely light though, a liveliness that belonged to a teenage girl in love.

Yun Yang had even heard the easy chuckles that Yun Zuiyue could not help but let out just as she exited the room.

However, the gaiety was like a sharp needle that pierced Yun Yangs heart.

What should he do in the future?

Yun Yang had no idea.

He felt like a futile tinker, mending with all his might the upper part of a net that was torn at the bottom.

It was a lie that would crumble at the slightest touch.

Yun Yangs group of four drank while they chatted. Other than Yun Yang, who was inwardly heavy-hearted but did not let anything show on the surface, the other three looked slightly nervous, as if waiting for something.

Finally, the doors banged open as a person charged in through them.

"Young master, its bad!" It was Dong Tianlengs guard who had dashed in; it was an expert of the sixth peak but anxiety was written all over his face. "Young Master Qiu is in big trouble!"
