《The Legend of The Grandmaster》Chapter 21
Advertisement
The two people sitting nearby became alert and stood in front of the man who was absorbing the spirit ring. Yu Xiaogang stopped after walking a bit close; he looked surprised after confirming the identity of the people in front of him. They were the duo genius of the Clear Sky Clan and a woman with silver-blue hairs.
Seeing that both were in battle position and would attack him the instant, he walked forward. Yu Xiaogang introduced himself, " I am Yu Xiaogang. and I don't mean any harm. " He sat down on the spot after speaking, and Little Yan followed his actions.
Both of them relaxed a bit, and their facial expressions also eased after looking at his actions. They felt his name was familiar and thought for a while before both of them again looked at Yu Xiaogang carefully.
The man confusedly asked him, " Are you the Grandmaster " Yu Xiaogang. " "
" Yes. " Yu Xiaogang replied in a plain voice. The man still looked a bit suspicious of him, yet he also introduced himself, " I am Tang Xiao of the Clear Sky Sect, and she is my sister Ah Yin. " Ah Yin also slightly nodded as Tang Xiao introduced her.
Yu Xiaogang nodded and said, " So both of you are the duo geniuses of the Clear Sky Sect. " as he pointed towards Tang Hao, who was still absorbing the ring. Tang Xiao nodded and gestured them to come over and sit with them.
Yu Xiaogang and Yu Yan got up and sat along with Tang Xiao and Ah Yin.
Ah Yin looked at Yu Yan in surprise and asked Yu Xiaogang, " Who is this lovely little girl. " He smiled and said, " She is my daughter Yu Yan. " Ah Yin's eyes flashed an envious light, and then she looked at Tang Hao.
They became more familiar and happily chatted as time passed. It took Tang Hao one hour more before he successfully absorbed the ring.

" Hahaha! "
Everyone heard a burst of loud laughter, and they turned their faces and saw Tang Hao laughing like an idiot.
" Idiot, SHUT UP! "
Tang Xiao's face darkened as he heard the laughter and couldn't stop himself from shouting at his little brother. He truly felt they had lost the face of their clan in front of the outsiders.
" Un..! " Tang Hao's laughter stopped, and he stood stunned at the spot after hearing his elder brother's shout.
Tang Hao could not comprehend the reason why his brother was so mad, and helplessly his eyes turned towards Ah Yin, only to see the latter's body shaking as she was trying to control her laughter.
Ah Yin, who was taking pleasure in his misfortune, decided to help Tang Hao, and she pointed with her finger towards the direction Yu Xiaogang and Yu Yan were sitting. Tang Hao's eyes looked towards the direction she had pointed, and he saw two people, one big and one small, sitting near Tang Xiao with smiles on their faces.
Tang Hao finally understood the reason behind his brother's fury and looked apologetically towards Tang Xiao.
" Hehe... " Before Tang Xiao could react, everyone heard the little girl's sweet laughter, and his anger rose again. He glared back at Tang Hao as if asking him, " See the good things you did, even the little girl is laughing at us. "
Ah Yin looked at the brothers amusedly, and she stepped forward and sat down beside the Yu Yan and pinched her adorable cheeks, " Well done, little girl. "
Yu Yan hastily freed herself from Ah Yin's hands and jumped behind her father and said, " Aunt, don't pinch my cheeks. I am already a big girl. "
Ah Yin was stunned for a moment after she heard Yu Yan calling her aunt; she immediately glared at Little Yan and said, " You! Little Girl! Call me, elder sister! Do you understand? "

This sudden change took the three men present on the scene by surprise. Tang Xiao even forgot to scold his little brother; instead, both of them came forward to prevent Ah Yin from fighting with a little girl.
Although Yu Xiaogang felt very amused after looking at such a scene, yet he patted his daughter's head and gestured her to stop; on the other hand, it took a while for both of them to succeed in pacifying Ah Yin.
" Let's eat. " Yu Xiaogang suggested, and everyone nodded in response. Tang Hao had just absorbed his eighth spirit ring and was already hungry; Yu Xiaogang took out the meat and other ingredients from his storage tool.
The fresh fragrance of the meat attracted everyone's attention, and everyone forgot the previous scene and started helping out.
Ah Yin took the meat and other ingredients from Yu Xiaogang and started processing, and at the same time, Tang Hao brought wooden pieces and started the fire while the rest of them sat on the side.
" Yan'er, go and help little sister Yin. " Yu Xiaogang softly touched her head.
" Father! Who are you calling, little sister? She is obviously more than a hundred thousand years old. " Yu Yan muttered to herself as she grudgingly walked to Ah Yin. Little Yan felt aggrieved; she called her aunty instead of the old lady, was already showing respect to the other person.
Although Little Yan's voice was low, yet everyone on the scene clearly heard her. Everyone present on the scene had the power comparable to a spirit-sage; how could they not hear the little girl.
Everyone was stunned for a moment and halted their movements. Yu Xiaogang could feel Tang Xiao's body shaking, and before anyone could respond, Tang Hao rushed forward and stood in front of Ah Yin.
" What Happened? " Yu Yan was also stunned by everyone's reaction; she couldn't help herself and speak.
" Yan'er, what you said is real? Is little sister Yin really a hundred thousand years old? Tell me, honestly? " Yu Xiaogang asked in a serious tone. Although He knew Ah Yin's real identity, yet Yu Xiaogang pretended that he didn't know.
" Yes, father, she really is, and her real body is beautiful bluegrass with golden covering. " Yu Yan carefully looked at Ah Yin again before replying.
On the other hand, Ah Yin felt very uncomfortable with the little girl's gaze, and she felt uneasy. Although it was incredible, her instinct was right; Little Yan could really see her true body.
Although everyone except Yu Xiaogang still had a trace of doubt at Yu Yan's words, it vanished after watching Ah Yin's expression full of fear and her trembling body.
" Is it true, Ah Yin? " Tang Hao said in a quivery voice.
" Yes, big brother Hao. " It took Ah Yin all of her strength and courage to reply to him. She knew that everything changed after her identity got exposed, and their relationship wouldn't be the same as before.
Tang Hao and Tang Xiao were shocked after hearing her, and both of them had complex expressions on their faces. They knew the exact meaning of the word, " Hundred thousand years old spirit beast. "
As the heirs of the Clear Sky Sect, it was their duty to capture her and bring her back to the clan, but on the other hand, both of them liked her.
While all of them were still thinking, Yu Xiaogang hastily brought Little Yan beside him. Although there was no danger, he still did not want to take any risk.
" Am I still your third sister? " Everyone heard Ah Yin's trembling voice, and both of them saw her pale face covered in tears.

Ætla Verǫld
AV Online was just a flash in the pan—a harsh, experimental land which lost most of its players in mere weeks. Only the dedicated few remained, carving out their destinies in corners of the vast abandoned world. Lily Quinn wasn't one of them. With a career worth millions in the esports world, she didn't have time for a game like Avo—but when an exclusive beta test for the new version showed up on her doorstep, she couldn't say no… as much as she wanted to. Literally hooked into the simulation, Lily reluctantly entered a world beyond anything she'd ever dreamed of. Accompanied by seven other beta testers desperate to save their beloved game, Lily dives into a vibrant, beautiful world, where mystery and adventure waits around every corner. Despite her reservations, Lily finds a joyful escape in Avo, shattering her cold, hollow reality. It was just a game though… until the group discovered they couldn't log out. Trapped in a game with no rules, and surrounded by cutthroat players eager to kill for a quick windfall, Lily and her ragged band have no choice but to fight their way out, or die in a game that has turned all too real. Hi there! I'm setting off on yet another adventure, come join me :3 Unusually for me, there's only one perspective this time, and it's quite a bit more action-oriented than I usually write. Don't worry, though: everything's still as character-driven as always, and I never get tired of writing dialogue. Just to acknowledge it up front: this story is heavily inspired by EVE Online and the many stories generated by that world. However, since this is a fantasy setting, not sci-fi, don't expect any real parallels. Chapter publish rate for this one will be whenever I write them, as with Epilogue. I don't expect to move as fast here though, since it's not for NaNo. The plan is chapters somewhere in the 4k-5k range, and hopefully frequently. The Last Science takes priority as always though. Special thanks to Reaver and Ace Arriande for pushing me to get this going, and to all my fellow writers whom I've stolen from been inspired by. You're all wonderful people and I love you Quick reminder: Patrons get to read ahead of what's published! Also, try my other works: The Last Science — A Tale of Modern Magic Epilogue — A Post-Fantasy Psychodrama What are you still doing on the synopsis? Get to reading!
