Chapter 62 Yu Yuanzhen passionately shows off his son
["How many?!!!!"]
Ye Hengchuan's voice sounded slightly cracked due to the urgency.
But right now, nobody cares about that.
Ye Hengchuan's gaze was fixed on Yu Yuanzhen, who wore a smug smile, his heart filled with disbelief.
If I heard correctly, my older brother said that Xiao Gang's spirit ring is over a thousand years old.
[A little over a thousand years? That must be the second spirit ring, right?]
[But Xiao Gang was only level 10 when he went out for a while, how could he have gone straight to level 20?]
In other words, it really is the first spirit ring.
[The first spirit ring in a thousand years!]
Thinking about this, Ye Hengchuan's face flushed slightly.
"Big brother, are you sure you're not joking? Xiao Gang's first spirit ring is really a thousand years old?"
Ye Hengchuan repeatedly asked Yu Yuanzhen for confirmation, but Yu Yuanzhen could understand Ye Hengchuan's disbelief.
Even if it were him, after witnessing Yu Xiaogang successfully absorb the first soul ring of a thousand years, he still couldn't help but pinch himself repeatedly to make sure it wasn't a dream.
"I'm certain that I personally watched Xiaogang absorb his first spirit ring."
"It was precisely because he absorbed this first spirit ring of a thousand years that he was injured so badly."
Hearing Yu Yuanzhen's words, Ye Hengchuan finally believed everything completely.
He sat there blankly in the chair for a long time, then glanced at Yu Yuanzhen's smug smile.
Only then did Ye Hengchuan realize why Yu Yuanzhen had rushed to the Thunder Dragon Hall without even going home after returning to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
"Okay, I was wondering before, even if I said a couple of things to you and Xiaogang before you left, telling you to remember to tell me the results when you got back."
"You could just tell me the result with a simple sentence; you didn't need to come in person, brother."
"Not to mention that Xiaogang is still injured."
"So, bro, you've come here to brag about your son?"
Ye Hengchuan gave Yu Yuanzhen a disapproving look.
"Haha, my good brother! Over the years, I've made countless friends, but only a handful can truly be called good brothers."
"You're one of them. Who else could I tell this funny story to if not you?"
Yu Yuanzhen was finally able to laugh out loud; he had been waiting for this moment for far too long.
After Yu Xiaogang successfully absorbed the first soul ring of the millennium and was confirmed to be intact, Yu Yuanzhen was already thinking about how to tell others about it in a way that would leave them in shock.
[For a good brother like Ye Hengchuan, you have to use a casual, conversational tone to casually mention this matter.]
Look how well it worked!
[In fact, the moment Ye Hengchuan spat out the tea, Yu Yuanzhen had already wanted to burst out laughing, but he held back.]
For friends with whom he has only a casual relationship, Yu Yuanzhen also needs to prepare a set of excuses.
Yu Yuanzhen needs to think carefully about how those old rivals and enemies who once mocked him will talk about this matter in front of him.
"Alright, brother, stop laughing. Tell me quickly, what exactly happened?"
Seeing Yu Yuanzhen's incessant laughter, Ye Hengchuan hurriedly interrupted him.
[The first spirit ring in a millennium! This is unprecedented in the Douluo Continent.]
Such an experience, regardless of which faction in the Douluo Continent one goes to, would be stored as top-secret intelligence.
If it were someone from Spirit Hall, the Clear Sky Sect, or the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect who did such a thing, Ye Hengchuan could only sigh and feel envious.
Even if it were someone close to one of the elders of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan who did such a thing, Ye Hengchuan wouldn't bother to question them.
But if Yu Xiaogang did something like that, the meaning would be completely different for him.
[As Yu Yuanzhen's good brother and Yu Xiaogang's uncle, he was the one who helped Yu Xiaogang complete the Whale Glue experiment.]
Ye Hengchuan can be considered a staunch follower of Yu Yuanzhen.
Sometimes, even one's own brothers aren't as close as one's relationship with Yu Yuanzhen's family.
That's why Ye Hengchuan was able to ask about the details without hesitation.
"The main reason Xiaogang was able to accomplish this is because he is capable."
Yu Yuanzhen didn't mince words and began to recount their experiences after leaving the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, from encountering members of Spirit Hall in the Star Dou Great Forest to their later encounter with the Crimson Blood Flying Dragon.
[Especially after encountering the Crimson Blood Flying Dragon, Yu Yuanzhen's account became even more detailed.]
["...At that time, there were two crimson dragons, one seven hundred years old and the other a little over a thousand years old."]
"I was originally planning to continue searching for other soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, but at this moment, Xiao Gang stepped forward, pointed to the Crimson Blood Flying Dragon that was a little over a thousand years old, and said he wanted this one."
Hearing this, Ye Hengchuan also felt tense, as if he were there himself.
"Big brother, didn't you stop him? That's a thousand-year-old soul beast!"
"Of course I tried to stop him, but Xiao Gang said that the path to becoming a Soul Master requires taking risks to break through."
"What kind of Soul Master wouldn't take risks?"
["Besides that, he also always remembered the ridicule and mockery he and others in the sect had shown him and me, his father, over the years."]
"He wanted to prove himself, and also to make me, his father, proud."
"For this, I would be willing to die here."
[Yu Yuanzhen became increasingly engrossed in his speech, and towards the end, he even embellished the details to some extent.]
Ye Hengchuan, who was standing to the side, nodded repeatedly as he listened.
"That's right, it's something Xiaogang would do."
"Yes, as expected of your son, brother. He has such determination at such a young age."
"Great job! Xiao Gang, that's a real man!"
In Ye Hengchuan's mind, the Yu Xiaogang described by Yu Yuanzhen was exactly the Yu Xiaogang he had imagined, so he believed everything Yu Yuanzhen said.
Upon hearing this, Ye Hengchuan's eyes welled up with tears as Yu Xiaogang absorbed the spirit ring, leaving him covered in blood.
Finally, upon hearing that Yu Xiaogang had succeeded, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Phew, I never imagined that so much would have happened to Xiaogang in just these few days."
"Brother, you told me before to get Xiaogang a batch of nourishing medicinal herbs?"
"Leave this to me. I'll definitely get Xiaogang the best, all of it to replenish his qi and blood!"
Ye Hengchuan patted his chest repeatedly to assure him.
"Haha, how could I not trust you?"
Yu Yuanzhen patted Ye Hengchuan on the shoulder and said with a look of trust.
But just then, Ye Hengchuan's eyes lit up.
"Hey bro, Xiao Gang's not getting any younger. Shouldn't he start thinking about the future?"
"I think my daughter would be perfect for this."
Ye Hengchuan gave him a knowing look.
Through Yu Yuanzhen's narration, he understood all too well how limitless Yu Xiaogang's future achievements would be.
[If these exceptionally gifted individuals don't act now, they'll never have the chance to act in the future.]
Upon hearing Ye Hengchuan's words, it was Yu Yuanzhen's turn to spit out the tea he was drinking.
"Goodness, if I remember correctly, your daughter is only three years old this year, right?"
"What's the big deal? Xiaogang is not even ten years old yet, it's about the same age. It's better to cultivate this kind of relationship from a young age. Let's settle on that!"
Ye Hengchuan waved his hand, not even giving Yu Yuanzhen a chance to refuse.
Looking at Ye Hengchuan's expression, Yu Yuanzhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Good son, don't blame your father. With your abilities, you were destined to go through these things."
