The Mo Family's Strange Conduct

The echo in the corridor was a little louder, and Ye Jingcheng stopped abruptly at Chu Yanqing's shout.

"What makes you say that, Fellow Daoist Chu?" Ye Jingcheng tilted his head slightly.

"It's just that Fellow Daoist Ye has been in seclusion for many days, and today I wish to catch up, but you seem to be avoiding me..."

"Of course not, Fellow Daoist Chu is overthinking it. However, Fellow Daoist Chu should also be aware that the Ye Family is currently weak Xu Family is strong. If it weren't for unavoidable circumstances..."

Ye Jingcheng sighed and prepared to leave.

Ye Jingcheng had no desire to get close to Chu Yanqing. She was indeed intelligent and beautiful, but firstly, she was too interested in the Ye Family, and secondly, she seemed extremely interested in his secrets.

Especially the second point: Ye Jingcheng has always been one to eliminate those he can, and avoid those he can't eliminate.

But the latter spoke again:

"That's true, but I've received some information that the Mo Family brews Supreme Mystery Wine in the western part of the city, in the Flat House District. I wonder..."

"Oh, does the Mo Family want to open a restaurant?" Ye Jingcheng interrupted directly.

A look of doubt appeared in his eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, you don't know about the Supreme Mystery Wine?" Chu Yanqing raised her eyes, her gaze equally unconvinced.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, although our Ye Family wants to open a restaurant, we currently have the desire but not the capability in Taichang Market. If Fellow Daoist Chu is willing, could you help introduce some disciples from your sect to purchase spirit pills? I would be extremely grateful!" Ye Jingcheng shook his head and left after speaking.

They didn't give Chu Yanqing any chance to ask questions.

Chu Yanqing glanced at him, wanting to speak again, but Ye Jingcheng had already left and entered the courtyard.

Under the cover of the Array, their figures gradually disappeared.

If someone were standing in front of Ye Jingcheng right now, they would notice that his eyes were frighteningly sharp, and his brows were furrowed tightly.

Back in his room, he sensed that Mo Hongyuan seemed to have noticed something, or perhaps things had changed.

The Chu Family knew about the Supreme Mystery Wine, but this was definitely not something the Chu Family inquired about; on the contrary, it was more likely that the Mo Family leaked it themselves.

And Mo Hongyuan revealed so quickly that he was brewing Supreme Mystery Wine.

This is highly unusual.

Ye Jingcheng naturally knew that if the Mo Family wanted to hide, they could definitely succeed, after all, the Mo Family had controlled the Eastern Sea Teleportation Array for at least fifty or sixty years.

Ye Jingcheng knew that before he even went up the mountain, the Ye Family and the Mo Family had already fallen out, and he guessed that the Teleportation Array already existed at that time.

A Lineage that is so good at keeping secrets could never have lost even the Taicang wine.

Now that he's no longer hiding it, it can only mean he leaked it on his own initiative.

Moreover, in Ye Jingcheng's view, this was an attempt to lure the Ye Family into making a move.

It's understandable that they arranged for it to be located in the Flat House District of Xicheng from the very beginning.

Otherwise, if the Mo Family for the brewing to take place in Green Willow Mountain or other small markets, the Ye Family and other Lineage would never have discovered it.

Moreover, since this Supreme Mystery Wine was provided by the Ye Family, Ye Jingcheng naturally knew its medicinal effects. It could only slightly increase his lifespan, far inferior to his Wood Demon Longevity Peach.

However, these are second-tier spirit wines, which can also enhance cultivation. Moreover, and most importantly, Supreme Mystery Wine and Blue Wave Wine can be connected to the sea.

The reason why the Yan Kingdom cannot go to the sea is because the journey is too long, and only a Golden True Person can reach it within a few months.

Even for a Purple Mansion cultivator, it would take a year or so, not to mention Foundation Establishment cultivator, five or six years is normal. Only Teleportation Array can shorten the distance between the two and complete the control of resources.

The core Space Jade required for the Teleportation Array can only be refined by Nascent Soul True Lord who understands Array. As far as Ye Jingcheng knows, the Nascent Soul True Lord of the Taiyi Sect and Green River Sect are not known for their Array formations.

Ye Jingcheng had never heard of any famous Teleportation Array in the Yan Kingdom or even in the neighboring Qi, Chu, Wei, and Han states.

Mo Hongyuan seems to be forcing the Ye Family to make a move.

And it's important to remember that only a little over a year has passed.

Ye Jingcheng pondered for a while and also felt a great headache coming on.

According to his initial plan, he intended to wait exactly two and a half years before sending someone to impersonate a Mo Family to lure Mo Hongyuan out.

He can't do that, but his Lineage can.

He had previously instructed Ye Xuecang to arrange for his clansmen in the Azure Cloud Sea Region to collect information on the Mo Family cultivators.

Ye Jingcheng pondered for a while, but still couldn't come up with any ideas.

But he was certain that something had happened.

He looked out the window; the crimson sky seemed darker than usual, and there were other colors mixed in.

Ye Jingcheng took out a sound transmission talisman and pinched it between his fingers.

A short while later, Ye Jinghao, dressed in the Ye Family's blue long gown, jogged into the courtyard.

"Eleventh Brother!" Ye Jinghao didn't know why Ye Jingcheng wanted to see him.

"Jinghao, there's a stall at the West City street market that specializes in selling Purple Cloud Scorpion eggs and larvae. Go buy me two. Remember to keep their stingers intact; I have a very important use for them. Also, take these Five Poison Bee with you." Ye Jingcheng took out a Five Poison Bee and gave it to the latter to carry.

Although Ye Jinghao was puzzled, he didn't say anything and simply did as instructed.

The shops are less crowded now, and Ye Jingyu can manage on his own most of the time.

Over the past year, Ye Jinghao has become extremely familiar with the market, knowing exactly where to find good Spirit Talisman and cheap spirit medicine.

This is also Ye Jinghao's greatest strength; otherwise, with his Qi Refining Level 4 cultivation, he might not have had this opportunity at Taichang Market.

His path remained the same as always, except that he now had a Five Poison Bee on his shoulder.

In the Chu Family courtyard of Chu Chu-Ye Pavilion, Chu Yanqing landed under an evergreen tree and took a big bite of a spiritual fruit.

At this moment, the Chu Family seemed to be discussing important matters. The Array in the courtyard was set up very wide, and even Chu Xiyu was present.

Chu Yanqing was still sulking, her cheeks slightly flushed.

"Auntie, Ye Jingcheng is such a blockhead!" After a long while, Chu Yanqing finally spoke.

"It's not that he's insensitive, but Qing'er, you've been spoiled in your Lineage. The outside world is different from the Lineage. Even if people fight tooth and nail behind the scenes, they won't be stingy with praise and compliments in public. You should be able to see that from how other Lineage treat you."

"However, what your aunt is more concerned about is what you actually think?" Chu Xiyu continued.

"Aunt, of course I care about the Lineage. What could I possibly have on my mind?" Chu Yanqing shook her head.

"However, in my niece's opinion, this Ye Jingcheng is truly extraordinary and extremely mysterious. Moreover, his aura is something that even I find extremely daunting. If I'm not mistaken, he has already broken through to the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage!"

"Oh, you are a postnatal Gui-Water Spirit Body, extremely sensitive to Water Attribute Spiritual Qi. It seems that Ye Jingcheng is indeed a spirit body, and not just an ordinary single-attribute spirit body." Chu Xiyu said with great interest.

As the two were talking, the courtyard gate opened.

Soon, a middle-aged man appeared.

"Xi Yu, the Law Artifact is finished this time!"

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Eighth Brother!" Chu Xiyu smiled and glanced at the Storage Bag before adding.

"For the next batch of Law Artifact, please have the myna bird refine more spirit armor and Fire Attribute Law Artifact. It's said that the sect has discovered a second-tier secret realm in the Taihang Mountain Range, and the sect has made a great effort..."
