Chapter 71: Rift Between Brothers

  Yang Fan held the letter in his hand, his face changing between sunny and cloudy, his hands slightly trembling, and his emotions somewhat unstable.

  His other hand held a crystal-clear blue jade pendant with an unknown material that seemed to be a rare treasure from the mortal world.

  "Big brother..."

  Yang Hui Xin stood by, with a few threads of worry between her eyebrows.

  Obviously, there was something unexpected in the envelope that made the normally calm big brother change color. Moreover, Yang Fan didn't plan to let his sister know the content when he read the letter.

  After a long while, Yang Fan let out a mouthful of turbid air and his expression also returned to calmness.

  A flame burst out of his hand and turned the letter into ashes.

  "Big brother, what's going on?" Yang Hui couldn't help but ask.

  "Sister, don't get involved in this matter, it's a grudge between the cultivation world."

  Yang Fan said calmly, but his face was not as calm and composed as before.

  "Big brother, your jade pendant..." Yang Hui Xin's gaze fell on Yang Fan's jade pendant.

  "This is something left by my father, who specified in his will that it should be given to me."

  Yang Fan thought for a moment, then put on the cyan jade pendant close to his body, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

  "Sister, I'm asking you, did brother have anything unusual when he last came to 'Wu Liu Town'?"

  Yang Fan's face was solemn as he asked.

  Yang Hui-xin's voice was tinged with nostalgia as she said, "Since big brother left, he has come twice. The first time was the day you just left, that afternoon, his face had a hint of anxiety and disappointment. However, he stayed at home for two days, and his movements were mysterious. The last time he came back home, my younger brother told me that he had already warned Li Bao-zi, no one dared to bully me again, he would protect me and mother just like big brother used to..."

  "The second time I came, I found that my third brother had changed a lot. His expression was sharper than before, and he seemed to have some arrogance, and in the family, he seemed to have more status than before."

  Yang Hui-xin did not conceal anything either and told everything she knew.

  For some reason, she trusted her older brother a bit more in her heart.

  Yang Fan hesitated for a moment, his expression flickering uncertainly. At one point, he let out a soft sigh and said, "Anyway, no matter what, he is my own brother. After some time has passed and the medical hall's affairs have stabilized, I will go to 'Yang Family Fortress' myself."

  As soon as she heard this, Yang Hui's heart also let out a sigh of relief and anxiously said: "I was just afraid that big brother and third brother would get into some kind of trouble..."

  "He also regards me as a useless person, now wants to take charge, thinking that with some capital in hand, he can dominate the immortal world..."

  Yang Fan's smile was undeniable, with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

  "My third brother is young and vigorous, recently a bit sharp-tempered, big brother shouldn't take it to heart."

  Yang Hui comforted her.

  "He has not only sharpness and edge, but also a considerable ambition... I hope that in the future I can help him make amends."

  Yang Fan muttered a sentence in his heart and left his sister's boudoir.

  Yang Hui's eyes followed the back of her eldest brother as he left, a strange expression on her face. She thought to herself: "What exactly was in that letter? It seems to have created some distance between my eldest brother and third brother... could it have something to do with my father, whom I've never met?"

  She was filled with doubts and suspicions, despite her cleverness and intelligence, she couldn't guess the reason behind this.

  Yang Fan returned to his room and entered "omniscient mode", searching every corner of his home with all his might.

  He repeated it several times, but he didn't find anything unusual.

  "This is strange...... How did my brother find the location of the treasure left behind by Father?"

  Yang Fan was filled with doubts in his heart. Earlier, he had heard from his sister that after his brother returned home last time, he stayed at home for two days, which was unusual, and his whereabouts were mysterious.

  It can be seen that his brother found a clue at home and then found the location of the treasure left by his father.

  It turned out that Yang Fan's father, Yang Tian, before his mysterious disappearance, had left behind a treasure for his two sons as capital for their future entry into the Xianxia world.

  Yang Fan also learned about this matter from his brother's letter.

  As he had expected, his younger brother Yang Wei came home that day to ask for the precious resources in the storage bag, but things didn't go as planned and Yang Fan happened to be away, foiling his attempt.

  However, Yang Lei inadvertently found a clue left by his father at home and located the treasure.

  As for what was obtained from the father's treasure site, younger brother Yang Lei didn't mention a word, and instead swallowed all of the treasures left behind by his father.

  Of course, the blue jade pendant personally signed by Father Yang Tian must be given to Big Brother Yang Fan. He left this thing at home and let Yang Hui Xin hand it over to Yang Fan.

  Apart from this, the younger brother's letter also exudes infinite confidence and ambition, indicating that he will help Yang Fangxue to avenge his shame in the future, make a name for himself in the Xianxia world, and even take on the responsibility of his father's disappearance, with an air of taking charge of the family's power.

  Younger brother Yang Lei, due to his father's heavy treasure, was full of vigor and made great progress in his cultivation. He began a fierce competition with Yang Guang, the third-generation disciple who was originally second only to Yang Tian in the family, both wanting to become the number one among the third-generation disciples.

  "Brother... you're being too rash, swallowing all the treasures left by Father is one thing, but your ambition is showing and spreading. The cultivation world isn't as simple as what you see..."

  Yang Fan sat in his room for a long time, lost in thought, and couldn't help but sigh, feeling some annoyance and worry in his heart.

  What annoyed him the most was not that Yang Wei alone swallowed up the heavy treasure left by his father, but that this son acted arbitrarily and did not mention a word about his father's whereabouts and the clues he left behind in the letter, taking all matters into his own hands.

  What worried Yang Fan even more was that he felt his younger brother's inflated ambition in the letter...

  Yang Fan changed his mind and began to examine the blue jade pendant in his hand. He felt it for a moment, even using his divine sense to explore it, but he didn't notice anything unusual, only that the material of the pendant was somewhat special, looking like a rare treasure from the mortal world.

  This jade pendant was specifically given by Father to me, I don't know what kind of secret it holds.

  "Why did Father specifically want me to have this thing instead of my brother? Is it somehow related to my biological mother, whom I've never met..."

  Yang Fan suddenly came to a conclusion.

  He and his younger brother Yang Lei are actually half-brothers. Their father, Yang Tian, had a dual cultivation partner in the Xianxia realm, but Yang Shi was just an ordinary woman he married later after returning to Wumeng Village. And their sister Hui Xin is also adopted by Yang Shi.

  In short, it's a blended family with a rather strange relationship and some unknown secrets mixed in.

  That night, Yang Fan meditated quietly and peacefully throughout the night, but his heart couldn't calm down completely.

  There were two things that had been weighing on his mind.

  One is Yang Lei's side, no need to mention.

  Secondly, his newly opened medical clinic was suppressed by the joint efforts of Li Baozi and Hu Banshen from the town, which is also a thorn in his heart.

  He knew that he opened a medical clinic, but it was not just about saving people and silently improving his cultivation, which was his true purpose.

  The clinic didn't open smoothly and couldn't attract any customers, how could it attract immortal cultivators to come for treatment?

  The next day, Yang Fan went to "Pu Ai Medical Hall" immediately after finishing breakfast at home.

  From today on, he will personally sit in the medical hall and see who dares to come and provoke him.
