Chapter 431 - 409: Fame Shakes the Eight Domains

"Of course. Not only will I provide for you, but I'll also provide for our children."

"Huh?"

"Hmph, I've already thought it through. Our first child's name... we should let Father and Mother choose it. That way, your path of cultivation will be much smoother... Is that okay, Ah Yang?"

...

The memory faded, and Sen Hui returned to the present.

In an instant, she had composed herself.

A faint smile touched her lips. "Master, please continue your lecture on the second half of the *Hundred Woods Starry Pill Book*. This disciple is still a little confused and hasn't fully grasped it yet."

Her sudden shift in demeanor sent a tremor through Caiwei, Cairou, and the others.

Caiwei, Cairou, and the others came to a realization.

Fang Yang hadn't chosen Sen Hui merely because of the power of the Sen family.

Rather, Sen Hui herself possessed qualities that drew him to her!

At the same time, Sen Hui's actions caused the pupils of Bai Zhi the Medicine Saint to contract sharply.

It was because Bai Zhi the Medicine Saint saw a shadow of Fang Yang's own decisiveness in her!

...

The Kunpeng Ancestor!

The Lord of the Golden Crow!

The slayer of the White Tiger Demon Lord!

As expected, once news of the battle in the Dream World spread, Fang Yang's name resounded throughout the Eight Domains, and a great tremor shook every corner of the universe.

Without a doubt, another peerless hero who had reached the realm of the Young Venerables had just emerged.

Heaven and Earth quaked as all manner of beings were left utterly stunned.

No one doubted whether Fang Yang could ascend to the realm of the Young Venerables.

A consensus gradually formed in the minds of all living beings: as long as Fang Yang continued to grow, following his current path, he would inevitably become another Young Venerable.

A Young Venerable!

A legendary being that might not appear even once in a hundred thousand years.

Yet in the current era, the Great Sun Dragon Lady and Sen Yue had already appeared one after another.

And now, Fang Yang was on the verge of becoming one as well.

What was a Venerable?

They were a miracle on the path of cultivation.

A being that shattered all impossibilities.

Once such a being appeared, their mere presence was enough to deal a heavy blow to other Cultivators, shattering their Dao hearts.

The terrifying part was that Young Venerables, who had been so rare in past ages, were now emerging one after another in this era.

Thus, the various Venerable lineages had no choice but to believe that the path to the Immortal Realm might truly appear in the Era of the Dream Dao!

This was a massive storm.

It basically symbolized the curtain rising on the Era of the Dream Dao.

Fang Yang!

Whether he was paving the way for a king or daring to be the first...

In a way, the feat of Fang Yang suppressing and killing a host of young Great Saints was a milestone-like symbol.

The world was shocked, in an uproar, and filled with disbelief and fervent discussion.

However, most Mortal Practitioners were deeply worried by Fang Yang's emergence.

This was because Fang Yang's demonic aura blazed to the heavens, and his killing intent was astounding.

Even when facing ordinary demon soldiers and generals, he had carried out a great purge, not holding back in the slightest.

He completely lacked the demeanor one would expect from a Venerable in his youth.

With such a bloodthirsty nature, it was hard not to suspect that if he were to attain the Dao, wouldn't a... Demon Venerable emerge in the world?

It reached the point where many beings believed that Fang Yang was even more untouchable than Sen Yue and the Great Sun Dragon Lady!

...

「That night.」

A silver moon hung high in the sky, its brilliant light spilling over the Purple Cloud Villa.

By now, Sang Xiaowan had already heard the rumors about Fang Yang.

But the rumors were many, each version more outrageous than the last and so distorted they were hard to believe.

Therefore, taking this rare opportunity, Sang Xiaowan decisively questioned her father, the Purple Sky Manor Master.

Sang Xiaowan asked, "Father, is Brother Yang really One Aperture, Two Aspects?"

The Purple Sky Manor Master nodded. "Let me show you the specifics. It's not much of a secret anymore."

With that, he tapped the air, and a series of scenes materialized.

Gazing at the scenes in the air, Sang Xiaowan craned her long, snow-white neck.

A strange light flickered in her starry eyes, her gaze completely captivated by Fang Yang's cold, imposing figure.

Beside her, Fu Sheng Fairy nodded repeatedly, full of praise for Fang Yang's performance.

"Hmph, hmph."

A smug look appeared on Sang Xiaowan's face. "I told Senior Sister Qingyun a long time ago not to compete with Fang Yang and not to rush into the Dream World, but she just wouldn't listen. Sigh..."

She had never personally seen the two Young Venerables, Sen Yue and the Great Sun Dragon Lady.

Thus, she had no idea just how dazzling the light they carried was.

But she had seen Fang Yang with her own eyes and knew profoundly how terrifying he was.

The dazzling light emanating from Fang Yang could blot out the sky and sun, an overwhelming sight that far surpassed that of any other Cultivator of the younger generation she had ever met.

Even the light emanating from the few extremely decrepit Elder Great Saints she had seen was not as brilliant as Fang Yang's.

Therefore, she had never once doubted Fang Yang's meteoric rise!

...

「Beneath the same silver moon, in a different place.」

That night, Fang Xuan was summoned by the Star Sword Manor Master.

The Star Sword Manor Master intended to teach him the first five levels of the Secret Techniques for cultivating the *Ancient Scripture of the Beidou Seven Stars Sword Fighting*.

The *Ancient Scripture of the Beidou Seven Stars Sword Fighting* was the fundamental law of the Star Sword Villa, containing the Mystical Skills of both the Star Dao and Sword Dao schools.

Typically, only the most outstanding disciples would be taught the fourth and fifth levels of the *Ancient Scripture of the Beidou Seven Stars Sword Fighting*.

Now, Fang Xuan understood clearly.

He was likely basking in the reflected glory of his cousin, Fang Yang, which had caused the Mansion Master to look upon him more favorably, believing that he, too, might possess great, untapped potential.

Using his cousin Fang Yang as an example, if his own potential could truly be unearthed...
