At Sanyuan Mountain, inside a beast pavilion.
Several cultivators wearing Spirit-Isolating Robes were enthusiastically inspecting all the spirit beasts.
The Ye Family had built its fortune on spirit beasts, so naturally, it continued to operate beast pavilions in the Eastern Region.
Moreover, the Ye Family's beast pavilions now divided their offerings into particularly precise categories.
First- and second-stage beasts were available directly in the shops.
Third-stage and higher spirit beasts, or their young, required a visit to the Ye Family's special secret realm.
This was different from the early days in the Central Region, when the Ye Family's beast pavilion operations had been limited.
Now that the Ye Family controlled the Taihang Mountain Range and the Eastern Sea, its variety of spirit beasts had grown enormously. Everything from adorable, beautiful white foxes and snow foxes to more powerful Flowing Cloud Leopards and silver moon pythons was available for sale.
In the past, the Ye Family had lacked the strength to spread its operations so widely, but now it was a spirit transformation lineage.
As for exposing its secrets, there was no longer anything to fear. Both demon sage lineages of the Taihang Mountain Range had already submitted to the Ye Family, so any further concealment would be pointless.
Rather than bind its own hands and feet, it might as well act openly.
This truly broadened the horizons of cultivators from other sects who came to inspect the beast pavilion.
"They certainly sell plenty of spirit beasts, but we can't tell much from first- and second-stage ones." At that moment, two cultivators stood inside the beast pavilion, one behind the other.
The one in front was a young woman wearing a veil of spirit gauze that concealed her face.
Behind her stood a cultivator a full six feet tall, following closely.
