Urban Invincible Overlord

Tong Yunshu nestled in Yang Fei's arms, as he held her waist and flew. She looked back at Qin Yanyang with smugness.

Qin Yanyang snorted coldly when she saw this.

Yang Fei heard the snort, felt a jolt in his heart, coughed a little awkwardly, and hurriedly halted his movement, quickly returning to Qin Yanyang's side and grabbed her hand with his other hand: "Honey, don't be mad, let's go back together."

Qin Yanyang didn't want people at the base to see Yang Fei holding them both closely.

She snorted, slapped away Yang Fei's hand, and her figure flashed as she flew toward the valley first.

Tong Yunshu said, "You shouldn't have gone back to grab her, you got slapped, didn't you?"

"Not necessarily, not necessarily, we're family, there's no need to fight over this," Yang Fei hurriedly explained.

Tong Yunshu snorted, "You wish to treat everyone equally, it's impossible. Like a father with two sons, no matter how hard he tries to be fair, both sons will feel he favors someone. The key isn't what you do, it's whether Qin Yanyang and I are jealous."

Yang Fei smiled bitterly, "Yunshu, why don't you stop being jealous then?"

Tong Yunshu said, "Why don't you persuade Qin Yanyang to stop being jealous first? Why should I be the first to yield to her? I've always been the one yielding to her, but how does she treat me? Always looking down on me, treating me like a third party. I won't yield to her anymore. We're equals, why should I be beneath her?"

Yang Fei decisively shut his mouth.

Trying to reason with women over this issue is like looking for trouble.

Damn, I really admire those who can keep a harmonious harem.

On this road, I have a long way to go.

Back at the valley, Qin Yanyang locked her room door.

Yang Fei sighed and had to go to Tong Yunshu's room.

Tong Yunshu began to explain to him the true meaning of the two runes that could communicate with space law, teaching him over and over again how to pronounce these two runes.

Yang Fei had some foundation in Rune Tao and considered himself somewhat talented.

But it took him a long time to learn the pronunciation of these two runes.

They were just too difficult to pronounce.

On second thought, that's not quite right.

Once he really learned to read them, he realized the pronunciation wasn't really that difficult; It's just that while the pronunciation is exactly what it should be, actually producing it was very arduous.

Without grasping certain profound meanings of the rune, one cannot produce its correct pronunciation.

The entire later half of the month, Yang Fei was dead set on getting the pronunciations of these two runes right.

At dawn, he finally managed to accurately pronounce each rune individually.

At this point, he gained deeper understanding of the profound meanings contained in these runes and discovered a special connection between these runes and space rules.

Previously, Yang Fei merely memorized the two runes; he could understand them and write them down, but couldn't pronounce them.

Now, being able to pronounce them led to further comprehension of the Rune Tao power they contained.

He couldn't help but secretly admire.

Tong Yunshu truly has extraordinary talent in this area; she was able to sense the unique Rune Tao power within these two runes, combining them to produce their pronunciation, and by fortunate mistake, comprehended the mystery of instant teleportation.

Now, by pronouncing these two words separately, Yang Fei touched upon some rules of space law.

He realized that these runes could be arranged through different rules to seemingly create certain special abilities and effects.

Yet even with Tong Yunshu teaching him how to pronounce these two words continuously, he still couldn't link them.

Either he misread them from the beginning.

Or managed to pronounce the first rune, but when it came to the second one, seemed to forget how to read it altogether.

Stuck! MyVirtualLibraryEmpire(M|V|LE1MPYR)thanksyouforreadingatthesource.

Very hard!

However, after Tong Yunshu repeatedly guided and taught him, when he still couldn't produce the combined pronunciation of the two runes, her gaze toward him changed.

Yang Fei felt an extreme sense of shame inside.

That gaze was akin to a parent driven to madness while tutoring their child's homework.

Damn!

I have some talent in Rune Tao after all and am even an introducer to the rune path for Tong Yunshu, so why am I despised by her now?

No way, I must put more effort into this area in the future; I cannot be left falling too far behind.

A little past nine in the morning, Yang Fei was still tirelessly researching the pronunciations of the two runes when a loud voice suddenly sounded outside: "Yang Fei."

Yang Fei was elated, he rushed outside and saw Huang Chengcheng standing there.

"Master." Yang Fei called affectionately.

Huang Chengcheng laughed heartily: "You really are fine, I calculated long ago that with your strong fortune, despite the hardships, you would always turn evil into blessings."

"Thanks to you, Master," Yang Fei said with a smile. "By the way, Master, I heard from Yanyang that you've been striving to rebuild the Taoist sect recently, how is it going?"

Huang Chengcheng said with a smile: "Almost there, almost there. Over at Dragon and Tiger Mountain, there's already a venue ready, I've also spread the principles of our Taoist sect, and recently gained quite a bit of reputation. Not to mention those in the secular martial arts world, even many loose cultivators from the Hidden Sect are very interested in joining the Taoist sect.

This also shares some of your credit.

After you made the Taoist Cultivation Method public in the Hidden Sect, many Hidden Sect practitioners have practiced the Taoist Cultivation Method, finding it profound and are willing to join the Taoist sect.

However, I take the acceptance of disciples very seriously and won't carelessly accept them; besides focusing on cultivation talent and foundation, the most crucial aspect is moral character.

Yang Fei nodded repeatedly: "Yes, moral character is most important. Master, you must have heard, Qingtian Sect and Poison Sect have left the Divine Continent; they've set their flags overseas and become independent factions. Langya Wang Family also went north.

You had shown kindness to them before, but look at them now, Helian Zhan and Wang Chunyang both want to kill me; a bunch of ungrateful bastards."

Huang Chengcheng sighed silently with a bitter smile: "I can't really blame them for this. Back then, I didn't truly accept them as disciples, I just pointed them out a bit thinking they'll remember this small favor in the future, helping when I rebuild the Taoist sect or when you face difficulties.

Perhaps in their minds, last time standing by us in the Hidden Sect was enough to repay that favor.

Moreover, human nature has always been self-centered; for their ambitions, families, and sects, such actions aren't entirely without reason.

The only mistake was their untimely departure; before Heaven and Penglai Realm have been beaten down or even destroyed, they should have thought of the bigger picture, otherwise without the Divine Continent, even if they have their foundation overseas, they'll eventually become part of what Heaven and Penglai Realm annihilates."

"True, those with short-sightedness and selfishness won't last long."

Just then, came a cheerful voice.

Yang Fei's eyes lit up with surprise: "Grandpa."

It was Qin Huai'an's voice.

Accompanied closely by Zhu Tianshou, Xu Jian, as well as Wang Chengcuo, Luo Yong, and Xu Yunshan, the three brothers.

Everyone seemed relaxed, yet between their brows hid a trace of worry like a looming storm.
