Ye Family's Choice

Just look at the Ye Family's reaction to see how powerful Mo Tang is now.

Especially after the Wind Thunder Pavilion annexed the Ice River Valley, its aggressive behavior alarmed many forces.

Of course, if it were the other families of the five major families in Pill Region present, they might not be too afraid of Mo Tang, but the Ye Family would definitely be so frightened that their faces would turn pale.

Ye Zhong sighed inwardly, knowing that the Ye Family could not avoid this today. He could only force a smile and invite Mo Tang San to sit down.

"If my Ye Family agrees to submit to the Wind Thunder Pavilion, I wonder how Mr. Mo plans to arrange things for us?"

Ye Xinlan and her father were also very concerned about this issue, and they both looked at Mo Tang with nervous expressions.

Mo Tang chuckled, "Don't worry, I certainly won't treat you unfairly. You can just continue doing what you've always done, and the things belonging to the Ye Family will remain the Ye Family's..."

I'm not afraid to tell you, I'm currently building a Four Directions Pavilion Alliance. When the Four Directions Pavilion are united, and with the power currently held by my Wind Thunder Pavilion, it won't be impossible for us to rival the Two Sects.

I will reserve an elder position for the Ye Family in this new alliance, a position equal to that of the other three pavilions, in charge of all pill refining matters within the alliance...

I wonder what Ye Zhong's opinion is?

The three members of the Ye Family were all taken aback, thinking to themselves: This young man is indeed very ambitious!

Having just destroyed Ice River Valley, one of the Three Valleys, they immediately set their sights on the other three pavilions of the Four Directions Pavilion... If they are allowed to continue growing, they might actually surpass the Two Sects and become the Three Major Powers in the Central Plains.

Of course, to achieve this, he first needs to have a Saint-level expert under his command; otherwise, it's all just wishful thinking!

However, no matter what, the Ye Family seemed to have no room for resistance, and the treatment sounded quite good, so Ye Zhong was already considering giving in.

However, as the Great Elder of the Ye Family, he still needs to fight for more benefits for the family.

"Mr. Mo, the Ye Family can agree to your proposal, but I have one more condition..."

Mo Tang raised an eyebrow and said calmly, "Tell me about it, I'm listening."

"Mr. Mo, my Ye Family is a family of alchemists. Refining pills is our duty, but we are not good at fighting. If my Ye Family joins the Wind Thunder Pavilion, or the Four Directions Pavilion Alliance, then my Ye Family will only refine pills and will not participate in battles. Moreover, Mr. Mo must guarantee the safety of my Ye Family!"

Mo Tang's lips curled up, and he readily replied, "No problem!"

He wants the Ye Family just to refine pills, turning a bunch of alchemists into thugs on the front lines? He's not stupid!

Moreover, given the Ye Family's current strength, sending them into battle would only be sending them to their deaths, which would be incredibly humiliating.

Seeing that Mo Tang agreed so readily, Ye Zhong breathed a slight sigh of relief.

After glancing at Ye Lan and her father Ye Xinlan, Ye Zhong finally spoke up, "Alright! Then, my Ye Family is willing to submit to Mr. Mo's command!"

In a single sentence, the future of the Ye Family was decided.

Although Ye Zhong secretly desired the qualification of Pill Tower Elder, and was even willing to marry into the Cao Family... he had no other choice in front of Mo Tang and the others.

In the end, Ye Zhong chose to give in.

This choice, however, actually relieved Ye Xinlan.

She really didn't want to entrust the rest of her life to a man who only wanted to use her, all for the sake of some so-called family...

She had never witnessed the so-called glory of the Ye Family.

As far back as Ye Xinlan can remember, the Ye Family has been in constant decline, so she has no belief in restoring the glory of her ancestors.

She even resented the constant nagging from her father and grandfather, which is why she chose to study at the Jia Nan Academy to escape the troubles of her family.

Unfortunately, when the time came, as the eldest daughter of the Ye Family, she still couldn't escape the responsibility that had been on her shoulders since birth...

If it weren't for the appearance of Mo Tang San, Ye Xinlan would have known very well that even though her father and grandfather loved her very much, in the end, she still couldn't escape the fate of marrying into the Cao Family!

Therefore, under the current circumstances, Ye Xinlan does not feel that Mo Tang is forcing the Ye Family, but rather that he is genuinely saving the Ye Family...

This filled her with a subtle sense of gratitude towards Mo Tang.

Mo Tang didn't notice her gaze, but Xiao Yi Xian saw it clearly...

She sighed inwardly, realizing that yet another young girl had fallen for her man, which suddenly made Xiao Yi Xian feel immense pressure...

"No way! Yun Yun and Queen aren't around right now, I have to keep an eye on this guy and not let him bring any more people into the family!"

Xiao Yi Xian secretly made a decision in her heart.

However, if Mo Tang knew what she was thinking, he would definitely cry foul...

He truly never harbored any improper thoughts towards this Ye Family!

It's her own business if she takes a liking to me. Is it a crime to be handsome and strong in this world?

After the Ye Family chose to submit, the atmosphere became much better.

After all, we're family now...

Mo Tang had no designs on the Ye Family, but he was very interested in the Yang Fire Ancient Altar from the original story and wanted to see what exactly the so-called Yang Fire was.

Ye Zhong did not object to this.

Anyway, the ancient altar is there, and no one can take it away, so you can look at it if you want.

However, Ye Zhong's decision to submit to Mo Tang still needs to be announced to the entire Ye Family. So, Ye Zhong and his son still have a lot to do. This matter was handed over to Ye Xinlan, who was to accompany Mo Tang throughout the process. They could see whatever they wanted, as the Ye Family was completely open to them!

After receiving the order, Ye Xinlan personally led Mo Tang and his group deeper into the Ye Family compound.

About ten minutes later, a very remote gravel plaza appeared before them, and in the center of the plaza was a slightly ancient-looking altar.

Mo Tang looked up and saw that the huge stones used to build the altar were covered with the marks of time, indicating that the altar had existed for a very long time.

Perhaps this ancient altar has existed even longer than Ye City ...

As Mo Tang approached the altar, he discovered that the light here was exceptionally bright, and the closer he got to the altar, the hotter and purer the energy in the surrounding world became.

Beams of light, almost tangible, poured down from the sky, and after being reflected off the smooth stone wall, they all converged on a Black Stone Stele at the center of the altar.

Ye Xinlan pointed to the stone tablet and said to Mo Tang San, "Beneath this stone tablet lies an Earth Eye leading deep into the earth. If the stone tablet is moved, some flames from the earth's core will leap out, igniting the sunlight gathered here, thus forming Yang Fire..."

At this point, Ye Xinlan shook her head regretfully and said, "But that was several years ago. I only discovered after I came back that there hasn't been any earth fire appearing down here in recent years, so it's impossible to ignite sunlight to form Yang Fire..."
