Skyfall Xiao Family-Old Cheng Is Here Too? (Two-in-One; Please Vote)

Lingyun Peak, Council Hall.

Ye Jingyun, Ye Xingqun, and Ye Jingli were all present, their expressions exceedingly grave.

Two middle-aged cultivators stood before them.

However, both kept their heads deeply lowered and did not dare look at Ye Jingyun and the others.

"Jing Sheng, Qing Lin, tell us. When did you each come up the mountain?" Ye Jingyun asked, his tone remarkably calm.

Of the two, Jing Sheng was responsible for escorting merchant caravans between Lingyun Peak and Taihang Market, while Qing Lin was a fairly talented Artifact Crafter of the Ye Family.

At Lingyun Peak, although neither possessed a Beast Communication Mark, they were still considered valued members of the family.

Naturally, the family was furious that they had privately contacted Ye Qingwen and Ye Jingting.

"Ninth Uncle, Sixth Uncle, Great-Uncle Xingqun, I don't think I was wrong. The family clearly has some great secret, but why won't it be made public? Why must the ones guarding Lingyun Peak always be us?" Ye Qing Lin naturally understood what Ye Jingyun meant.

Yet he believed that ever since coming to Lingyun Peak, neither his cultivation nor his effort had fallen far behind anyone else's. Now barely over fifty, he had already reached the Qi Refining Ninth Layer. He still had ten years to attempt Foundation Establishment.

But he had heard all the rumors outside concerning the Beast Wasteland. At first, he naturally did not believe them. Yet lately, so many cultivation chambers on Lingyun Peak had been empty that he finally understood—they who remained at Lingyun Peak, Taihang Market, and Taichang Market were all abandoned pawns.

Still, he did not dare directly confront the Clan Elders. So he first asked Ye Jing Sheng, who had already reached Foundation Establishment. Then the two of them casually mentioned it to Ye Qingwen.
