On the Eve of the Conference

On Green Willow Mountain, the long willow branches danced in the spring breeze and drizzle.

Some fell into the air, forming plumes of smoke; others fell into the lake, creating ripples on the water.

Several cultivators walked along the lakeside, and with a burst of spiritual light, their figures disappeared into the lake.

We fell to the bottom of the lake, which resembled an underwater Dragon Palace, built in a magnificent and resplendent style.

After a long while, several cultivators entered the hall and saw Mo Wenchen, the patriarch of the Mo Family, sitting in the main seat.

"Ancestor, now that the Ye Family's Purple Mansion Ancestor has attained enlightenment, would you like to go with him?" The one who spoke was none other than Mo Hongyuan, the Mo Family's ancestor.

"This time, the Ye Family not only invited Taihao Master and Master Tianzhen, but also the Chu Family's patriarch, as well as Chu Xiyu from the Chu Family and Mingyuan from the Taiyi Sect. In addition, Azure Cloud Nunnery is also being invited. As for other forces that can come, we don't know!"

Mo Hongyuan spoke one by one, but Mo Wenchen did not reply immediately; his brows were furrowed tightly.

He had a feeling that something was wrong, but he didn't know where to begin.

"How are the pill-refining businesses of the Ye Family and Xu Family?" After a long pause, Mo Wenchen finally spoke.

"The competition is fierce. The Ye Family is no match for them, but Ye Family Spirit Beast business is booming. Moreover, the Chu Family and the Ye Family are expected to purchase shops in Taichang Market in the near future!" Mo Hongyuan replied.

Mo Wenchen nodded, his deep eyes seeming to be deep in thought.

"I still have some things to take care of on the island, so I won't be going. Just say I'm in seclusion!" Mo Wenchen said.

Mo Hongyuan nodded, and then led the two to leave the lake.

Behind them, Mo Wenchen took out a silver mirror and shone it on their backs.

After confirming that there were no problems, she slowly put away the mirror and closed her eyes.

At this moment, his entire cultivation seemed to have been unleashed, revealing a cultivation level of the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion...

From a distance, Granary Mountain looks like a giant rice granary sitting on the flat ground.

Surrounding the flat land are thousands of acres of spiritual fields.

The sacred rice from these sacred fields is renowned throughout the entire Taihang Commandery.

Of course, people only know that spirit rice can nourish and nurture people, but they don't know that the rice stalks are the best fertilizer material for Spirit Herb Garden.

On the spirit fields, it was the height of spring, and countless cultivators were planting.

Among the cultivators of Taihang Commandery, the Mo Family received the best treatment, while the Xu Lineage had the most members and the widest territory.

Therefore, the Xu Family has no shortage of people who cultivate spiritual fields and spiritual Spirit Herb Garden.

Beyond the spirit fields lies Granary Mountain, which is divided into two halves. One half consists of three Spirit Herb Garden located on the mountainside. Below the Spirit Herb Garden are the cave abode of the Lineage's high-ranking cultivators.

At this moment, Xu Wenchang also landed in front of the Xu Family patriarch's cave abode.

Xu Chunlin, the patriarch of the Xu Family, took out some spiritual tea and drank it with Xu Wenchang.

If others were here, they would see that Xu Wenchang, who is usually scheming and ruthless, is somewhat reserved at this moment.

"Uncle Lin, are you going to the Ye Family's Purple Mansion Conference this time?" Xu Wenchang asked.

"I'm not going. If the Mo Family patriarch isn't going, then it's even less appropriate for me to go. He's invited Taihao Master, Master Tianzhen, Old Ghost Tianfen from the Chu Family, and Mingyuan. It's obvious he's trying to put us in a difficult position. I bet he'll announce the opening of a pill shop in Taichang Market!" Xu Chunlin said slowly.

"In that case, since I'm not going, you can have Wencheng against Ye Jingcheng in alchemy during the Purple Mansion Ceremony. Isn't his alchemy talent absolutely amazing?"

"Let's see how the Ye Family has the nerve to open a pill shop in Taichang Market!"

"As for my Xu Family, their business in the pill industry in Taihang Commandery is not something they can shake. It would be much better if they just obediently raised their Spirit Beast!" Xu Chunlin said slowly.

Xu Wenchang nodded as well.

"Don't worry, Uncle Lin, I will definitely get this done!"

"Don't just settle it, make it perfect. Besides sabotaging things, remember to bring up the idea of visiting the Ye Family's Spirit Beast Valley to see what treasures the Ye Family has!"

"Since he dared to summon Master Tianzhen and Mingyuan, let him see what these two are capable of. None of the masters of the Taiyi Sect are easy to deal with!" Xu Chunlin added.

As he said this, a sinister smile crept across his face.

The Ye Family's tribute system was extremely conservative, and each time a member of the clan would appeal, the casualties would be heavy.

This also means that the sect offers fewer offerings, and the spiritual items given to those senior members are also fewer.

However, the fact that the Ye Family is selling their Spirit Beast so readily suggests that the Ye Family, originally Foundation Establishment Lineage, had been hiding their true strength.

Even if the Ye Family's legendary treasure were not found, he would be happy to see the Ye Family suffer heavy losses.

"By the way, how is that girl from the Li Family with the Wind Spirit Root doing?" Xu Chunlin asked again.

"I've already married Ji Yu, and I've also appeased her. Her only condition for not joining the sect is that the Ye Family be destroyed!" Xu Wenchang replied.

"Good, then go and make the arrangements. Remember, don't let that girl show her face until she breaks through to the Foundation Establishment. A genius who hasn't grown up isn't a genius!" Xu Chunlin finished speaking, drank the spiritual tea in his hand in one gulp, and then gave the order to leave.

Xu Wenchang nodded and then respectfully withdrew.

As Soaring Cloud Peak Purple Mansion Conference gradually approaches, Soaring Cloud Peak once again becomes lively.

Unlike Ye Jingyong's grand wedding, this was simply a joyous occasion of Ye Chu's reunion.

Ye Haicheng's Purple Mansion Ceremony was the most grand event the Ye Family had held in recent decades.

This signifies that the Ye Family become Purple Mansion Lineage, and also announces that the Ye Family has been separated for three days in the entire Taihang Commandery and even the Taiyi Three Prefectures.

Of course, the most important thing is to redistribute the interests of Taihang Commandery and even Taihang Marketplace.

It is very important to all members of the Ye Family.

The Ye Family has recalled its members from shops and mines in many places, and all the members who were hunting in the Taihang Mountain Range have also returned.

Every member of the tribe wore a confident smile.

Bearing the name of a Purple Mansion Lineage and Foundation Establishment Lineage are naturally different.

Ye Jingcheng also walked out of his own courtyard at this moment, and the sky had cleared up.

Of course, even if the weather doesn't clear up, the Ye Family will use Law Technique to block the rain, filling the entire Soaring Cloud Peak with a red glow, and there will be spirit cranes flying in the sky, thus bringing auspiciousness to the Ye Family.

On such an important day, the Ye Family would not allow those mythical Spirit Beast, such as wild geese and vultures, to take flight; they would simply keep them indoors.

The Ye Family also kept a number of Spirit Beast such as the Crimson Rabbit Auspicious Mouse. As Lineage Spirit Beast, how could they not have Spirit Beast present at the ceremony?

Holding the Lineage Token, he headed straight for the Treasure Pavilion.

Today is also the day of the Lineage gathering, but this time, it's not just the cultivators from the Inner Hall of the Ye Family, but all members of the Ye Family.

Before the Purple Mansion Conference, it is natural to mobilize the family, summarize the Lineage's history, and plan for the Lineage.

Ye Jingcheng seemed quite interested in this.

The last time such a large clan gathering was held was ten years ago, when it was for the conquest of Jade Dragon Valley.

This time, it was both for the Purple Mansion Ceremony and for summarizing the current situation of the Ye Family.

The Ye Family's territory has now expanded considerably.

Regarding the Spirit Mountain, including Cloud-Spreading Valley and Cloud-Spreading Mountain, there are four more Spirit Mountain to compensate. Although two of them must be handed over to Taihao Master, the rest are enough to support more Ye Family cultivators.

There are also many more animal groups, such as groups of Dense Forest Pig and groups of Red-Node Fish.

At the same time, over the years, the Ye Family has not only annexed the Li Family's Spirit Mountain territory, but also sent Ye Family mortals to the Li Family's towns and villages to kill and exterminate the main bloodline of the Li Family, and then let Ye Family mortals continue the bloodline.

Every ordinary member of the Ye Family married many women.

If this continues, the surrounding towns will eventually be assimilated into the Ye Family's towns, becoming another place for the Ye Family to provide seedlings.

The Ye Family still has too few members. It was small when it was a Foundation Establishment Lineage, and it's even smaller now that it's Purple Mansion Lineage.

The Ye Family's birth policy definitely needs to be improved.

For the Inner Hall cultivators of the Ye Family, marriage is more complicated because of the presence of Beast-Link Mark, and many members of the Ye Family are unwilling to get married.

But this is indeed detrimental to a Lineage's long-term development.

The clan meeting proceeded as usual, starting with ancestor worship. Everyone gathered outside the Ancestral Shrine, and by the time Ye Jingcheng arrived, many clan members had already lined up. As Foundation Establishment cultivator, Ye Jingcheng naturally stood at the front.

At this moment, you can also see bundles of sandalwood burning, emitting thick blue smoke.

Like a dragon of smoke, may blessings descend.

Ye Haicheng and Ye Xingliu at the very front; one was the former patriarch, and the other was the current patriarch.

The two men had solemn expressions. In the Ye Family's tradition passed down from childhood, the Ancestral Shrine was the most sacred place.

Then they began to worship their ancestors, reciting the ancestral rites and precepts.

The Ye Family's own generation was naturally among them.

Ye Jingcheng looked around and found that there were now more than 150 cultivators in the Ye Family. There were many more newly promoted Qi Refining members. Including those on special missions or in seclusion, there should be more than 180 people.

Yu Family how many people were in the Hidden Peak of the family, he had no idea.

According to his understanding, smaller Hidden Peak might only have two or three Foundation Establishment cultivators, while larger Hidden Peak might have Qi Refining cultivators.

The many Spirit Beasts that have recently Spirit Beast Valley are some of those that Lineage have brought back from Hidden Peak.

Moreover, Ye Jingcheng felt that the Spirit Beast Valley did not represent the entirety of the Ye Family's Spirit Beast.

After all, there are quite a few antelopes in the Guangsha Sand Cloud Mountain.

That kind of antelope spirit food could consolidate one's cultivation, and Ye Jingcheng still savors the memory to this day.

"Alright, Starflow, let's begin the clan gathering!" After the tedious ancestral worship ceremony, Ye Haicheng finally spoke.

As Purple Mansion cultivator of the Lineage, although he hadn't appeared or spoken for a long time, his prestige was undoubtedly the greatest.

Ye Xingliu cupped his hands in a gesture of respect and nodded before speaking:

"The Ye Family's Lingyun Peak has the following inventory and summary: there is currently one Purple Mansion cultivator, three Foundation Establishment cultivators, twelve Qi Refining Ninth Level cultivators, thirty Qi Refining Late Stage cultivators, sixty Qi Refining Mid Stage cultivators, and seventy-four Qi Refining Early Stage cultivators!"

"Regarding the four major artisans, there are 2 second-tier Alchemist, 15 first-tier Alchemist, 1 second-tier Artifact Refiner, 8 first-tier Artifact Refiner, 1 second-tier Spirit Talisman master, 5 first-tier Spirit Talisman masters, 3 second-tier Array, and 6 first-tier Array."

"In addition, there is one Tier 3 clan mountain, two Tier 2 clan mountains, six Tier 1 clan mountains, and two ordinary resource points!"
