The Back Mountain of Lingyuan Peak was planted with Spirit Tea trees. Since they were meant for entertaining guests, the tea trees were not particularly valuable, yet they still displayed the Ye Family's bearing.
At this moment, the tea blossoms were blooming brilliantly, carpeting the mountainside and filling the air with their fragrance.
There was a pavilion on the peak, with a round stone table inside. Spirit Tea and Spirit Fruits were laid upon it.
Such pavilions had originally been reserved for the Ye Family's Clan Elders. Yet at this moment, a crimson figure had descended into one, gazing at Sky Shadow Peak and Earth Shadow Peak in a daze.
Ye Jingcheng quietly appeared nearby as well. Then he cupped his hands and spoke, "Phoenix Saint Senior, you have graced us with your presence, yet the Ye Family failed to welcome you from afar. This is truly our Ye Family's fault." Ye Jingcheng cupped his hands.
Of course, his tone remained somewhat calm, without being overly deferential.
An Demon Saint had arrived uninvited and even slipped in secretly. This naturally made the Ye Family uneasy.
Moreover, it was currently the period of the Nascent Soul Ceremony. The Mountain Protection Array of Sky Phoenix Oasis was only half-open, and none of the other Ye Family members had noticed the Phoenix Saint's presence.
Only because Ye Jingcheng's divine sense was strong had he secretly discovered the Phoenix Saint. Otherwise, the ceremony might have concluded entirely without anyone realizing that the Phoenix Saint was in the Back Mountain.
Thus, even though Ye Qing Feng had sent word back half a year ago, informing the Ye Family of the Nirvana Phoenix Clan's existence and the reason why the Phoenix Saint had previously acted on the Ye Family's behalf—
Ye Jingcheng still harbored some reservations.
