New Rules for the Purple Mansion
In front of the Ancestral Shrine, the warm spring sunshine shone down, mingling with wisps of smoke that drifted layer by layer towards the vast sky.
With his back to the Ancestral Shrine, Ye Xingliu addressed the crowd, summarizing the current situation of the Ye Family.
He also visited almost the entire clan, from the clan members to the clan mountain.
Although this was only a part of Soaring Cloud Peak, both the newly recruited clansmen and those who had come into contact with some of the Ye Family's secrets were all beaming with joy and excitement.
Compared to the previous decade, the changes in the Lineage have indeed been enormous.
The territory is expanding, and the cultivation levels of the clansmen are improving.
Even the Spiritual Qi of Spirit Mountain became even more concentrated.
For cultivators, the most important things are nothing more than wealth, companions, Dharma, and land. Now that everything is getting better, it is naturally something to celebrate.
Even Ye Jingcheng thought it was a good idea.
"Although the Lineage has made good progress in the last ten years, for a Lineage that has been passed down for hundreds of years, our goal has always been to become a Golden Core Lineage!" After Ye Xingliu finished speaking, Ye Haicheng also spoke, his voice full of authority.
The moment he opened his mouth, everyone was drawn to listen.
However, the rest of the Ye Family members wore expressions of joy.
Ye Haicheng, however, frowned even more deeply, his expression becoming more serious, seemingly dissatisfied with everyone.
And you should know that in a few days, it will be Ye Haicheng's ceremony.
"And this requires the efforts of everyone, as well as maintaining the highest level of vigilance at all times!"
His serious gaze swept over everyone, emphasizing the word "warning."
Those eyes, like the light emanating from a magical Law Artifact, sent chills down one's spine.
Then he took out a Jade Slip, Jade Slip began to emit spiritual light as he waved it.
Above the light, images began to appear one after another.
It was a huge three-story Spirit Boat, filled with Spirit Boat who grinned maliciously as they headed towards Soaring Cloud Peak like bandits.
And the person in charge was none other than Xu Wenchang.
"This is the scene of the Xu Family forcing my Ye Family, and I hope everyone will remember it!" Ye Haicheng continued.
Upon hearing this, many cultivators fell silent.
Ye Haicheng's words were like a stone, awakening everyone's memories.
Several years ago, Xu Wenchang of the Xu Family, along with the Li Family and Chen Families, forced the Ye Family's Turtle Ancestor to commit suicide.
Although Ye Jingcheng knew that Turtle Ancestor was not dead, what happened back then was indeed a great humiliation.
The expressions on everyone's faces began to change slightly.
This even includes the younger members of the tribe.
Some of those Qi Refining cultivators experienced what happened back then, while others did not, but they all explained in the Teaching Hall that this was the Ye Family's legacy.
Not just Daoist principles, but also history!
The Ye Family has always been like this.
"I hope everyone remembers that as cultivators of the Lineage, we must never forget the shame of our clan!" After Ye Haicheng finished speaking, he took a step back, made room, and looked at Ye Xingliu.
"Starflow, continue announcing the new Lineage rules!" Ye Xingliu nodded.
"After careful consideration by the elders of the Ye Family, the Lineage has been promoted to the Purple Mansion Lineage. The salaries of all cultivators in the Lineage will be increased by 30%. At the same time, the Lineage also has sufficient territory and Spirit Mountains. However, the number of family members is still small. From today onwards, cultivators who give birth to Spirit Roots will be given an additional 300 contribution points, and those who give birth to children with talents of two or more Spirit Roots will be given an additional 500 contribution points!"
"In addition, the Lineage will give at least one Spirit Beast to each new member as a reward!"
When this news spread, the Ye Family members were overjoyed.
Although cultivators are unattainable in the eyes of mortals.
But most of the cultivators knew the truth.
Those with Spirit Roots are one in a thousand.
Of those who Foundation Establishment in Spirit Roots, only one in a hundred succeeds.
For most people, the path to immortality remains elusive.
This is still Lineage cultivator; if it were some Rogue Cultivator without any foundation, it would be one in a thousand.
Therefore, in the eyes of many clansmen, their descendants are the continuation of the path to immortality.
The Lineage has not only improved the treatment of everyone, but also the treatment and rewards of their offspring, which is undoubtedly a blessing from heaven.
Ye Jingcheng was also very satisfied, as his salary had increased again. Although he no longer relied mainly on his salary, he could finally relax a bit more.
"In addition, Spirit Beast of the Lineage that is at the peak of the first rank or above and is registered with the Lineage can also receive half the salary of a cultivator of the same rank!" Ye Xingliu continued.
Upon hearing this, joy instantly appeared on the faces of all the high-level cultivators, as they all possessed high-level Spirit Beasts to varying degrees.
Especially for those with many Spirit Beasts, just feeding them costs a considerable amount of Spirit Stones.
Normally, they would buy low-grade beast meat or low-grade spirit rice.
However, for some Spirit Beasts, it becomes difficult to maintain a Spirit Beast condition.
Now the Lineage also provides a stipend, although it's still not much, but it's at least better than before.
Ye Jingcheng was the most delighted at this moment. He now had three second-tier Demon Beasts: a late-stage first-tier Three-Color Cloud Deer and a late-stage first-tier Jade Ring Rat.
The pressure was immense, but fortunately, he had considerable talent in alchemy; otherwise, even with the Treasure Book and spiritual light, he would still find it difficult to maintain his current cultivation speed.
Now that the Lineage's high-level Spirit Beasts can be considered half a salary, it's like a godsend for him.
"Everyone, today you shall take out your high-level Spirit Beasts and hand them over in your Spirit Beast pouches!" Ye Xingliu continued.
Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng understood the situation perfectly.
He knew that the Lineage's plan had begun.
Among them, those Spirit Beasts with Beast-Link Mark will participate in the Ye Family's plan, while those without Beast-Link Mark will have their Spirit Beasts kept in the Spirit Beast Valley.
Ye Jingcheng also took out all three of his Spirit Beasts. At the same time, he put the Five Poison Bee containing a fragment of his soul into the Spirit Beast bag that contained the Crimson Flame Fox.
Although he couldn't go himself, he could still make judgments at crucial moments to prevent his Spirit Beasts from dying too easily.
After all, these Spirit Beasts are related to his cultivation, and it would be extremely difficult to find them all again.
But what reassured Ye Jingcheng the most was that his Lineage had everything under control in advance.
His confidence stemmed from the Lineage's seven Hidden Peaks, at least three Purple Mansion Ancestors, and the pre-refined Snake-Scent Pill and Beast-Luring Pill.
The others didn't think as much as Ye Jingcheng. In a Spirit Beast Lineage, it's normal for the Lineage to conduct unified inspections of Spirit Beasts, especially since such an important benefit was being implemented today.
It's perfectly normal for Lineage to undergo thorough examinations.
Once everyone had handed in their Spirit Beast pouches, the Lineage gathering came to an end.
Ye Xingliu announced the end of the clan meeting and instructed the elders to begin preparations for the Purple Mansion Ceremony.
At that time, a large number of pavilions should be built at the foot of the mountain so that Rogue Cultivators can stay, and a large number of mansions should also be built so that those Purple Mansion can rest.
If a Golden True Person were to attend the Purple Mansion Ceremony, a palace would need to be constructed.
Besides the accommodations, the Purple Mansion Ceremony also requires the preparation of spiritual food, wine, tea, and performances by Spirit Beasts.
To outsiders, the Purple Mansion Ceremony was just a ceremony, but to the Ye Family...
This marks the beginning of a redistribution of interests in Taihang Commandery, and also a golden opportunity for the Ye Family to demonstrate their true value and expand their prestige!
