An Invitation from Juehe Valley

"Peace should be the priority, and sparring should be the main focus. We are all stewards of the Taiyi Sect." As everything settled down, Jiang Jinghe stepped forward again. He continued to refill the spiritual tea for the several Purple Mansion and said a few perfunctory words.

If the Jin Family Purple Mansion Kong Family were Purple Mansion intent on weakening other families, how could they possibly not take advantage of this competition?

This is also why Xu Chunlin agreed to the battle at the Purple Mansion.

At least in the Battle of the Purple Mansion, he was confident that he could surrender at the crucial moment.

If it were Foundation Establishment, he was truly worried that the few Foundation Establishment Early Stage in his Xu Family who had finally broken through would be killed again.

That would have almost caused the Xu Family line to break twice.

The consequences were undoubtedly something he couldn't bear.

A cultivator at the Purple Mansion only has a lifespan of five hundred years, and he is now over three hundred years old, so he absolutely cannot allow all the Foundation Establishment of the Xu Family to perish again.

"Let's go to Severing Harmony Valley behind the market!" Jin Zongliang of the Jin Family said.

"This matter is not urgent. Regarding this sparring match, I have invited Taihao Master to come and observe, which is to ensure the fairness and impartiality of the competition," Ye Haicheng said at this moment.

Xu Chunlin from the Xu Family also spoke at the same time.

"Mr. Xu also invited Qian He!"

Although this sparring match was only a matter between the major Lineage of Taihang Commandery, each Lineage was involved in the interests of their respective sects.

Even if you follow the normal procedures.

They wouldn't truly be unguarded against each other.

Ye Jingcheng was extremely familiar with Severing Harmony Valley.

Back then, some cultivators even tried to lure him to the Severing Harmony Valley using the Bloodrage Pill.

That's a geomantically auspicious place for burying people and dumping corpses!

"Let's set it for five days from now. Everyone should prepare accordingly, since this isn't a sparring match between Foundation Establishment cultivators!"

Ye Haicheng made the suggestion again.

However, he was directly rejected by Kong Yulong.

"The auction will be held in two or three days at most. This time, my Green Willow Kong Family has brought out quite a few treasures!"

"My Sand Ridge Jin Family has also produced many treasures." The Jin Family also refused.

They naturally knew what the Ye Family was up to.

It's simply a way to make one last big profit at the auction.

But how could they let them succeed?

Even Jiang Jinghe couldn't help but glance at Ye Haicheng with disdain, seemingly looking down on him slightly.

Ye Haicheng ignored everything, drank the tea in one gulp, and prepared to leave with Ye Jingcheng Ye Xinghe.

Now that an agreement has been reached, the competition will be held in two days.

The selection of participants for the competition was also very simple: Xu Chunlin from the Xu Family and Kong Yulong from the Kong Family would compete, and Jin Zongliang from the Jin Family would face off against Ye Haicheng from the Ye Family.

Although the Ye Family also wanted to compete with the Kong Family.

But at present, the greatest hatred still lies Xu Family and the Kong Family.

In Taihang Marketplace, the Ye Family was known for their business dealing in spiritual food and Spirit Beasts.

The impact was not significant; the Xu Family and Chu Family were the hardest hit.

The Jin Family's Law Artifact and techniques are comparable to those of the Yongan Zhang Family, and their application in Taihang Commandery is a devastating blow.

The Kong Family's Pill Formula and various alchemical skills were far superior to those of the Xu Family.

In other words, the Xu Family invited many other Lineage, which confused the Taihang Marketplace and prevented the Xu Family from being completely destroyed by the Ban Xu Order.

But this hatred is even greater than that between the Ye Family and Kong Family.

After all, one of them had a chance of killing their own people and had been Spirit-Inquiring Talisman. The current stalemate is mostly due to face-saving issues.

One issue is the extermination of the entire clan, a matter of life and death.

Even if Ye Haicheng persisted, he still couldn't quite outmaneuver Xu Chunlin.

Clearly, Xu Chunlin still harbored the intention to severely damage Kong Yulong if given the chance.

After all, Xu Chunlin lost and could admit defeat, but Kong Yulong was a matter of the Kong Family's reputation, so his admission of defeat was not so acceptable.

As Ye Jingcheng left, he also glanced at Chu Xiyu.

He was not familiar with Chu Tianfen, but had only heard rumors about him.

But he knew quite a bit about Chu Xiyu.

At that moment, Chu Xiyu also noticed that Ye Jingcheng was looking at him.

There was hope in his eyes, but that hope quickly faded; his mouth was slightly open, but he ultimately didn't speak or send a message.

In fact, looking back over the past century, the relationship between the Chu Family and the Ye Family has only been integrated in the last ten years due to the changing situation.

It's not necessarily great.

The Chu Family had even cheated the Ye Family, and the Ye Family had also seized the Chu Family's Spirit Herb Garden.

Lineage interests are indeed that complex.

After all, personal grudges will gradually fade away as the cultivators of that time pass away.

However, the Lineage's interests and control over Taihang Commandery have remained constant.

Ye Jingcheng hesitated for a moment, then transmitted his voice to Chu Xiyu.

"Chu Family, I promised Yan Qing the elixir, and I've already sent it over. I wonder if she received it?"

"I've received it." Chu Xiyu's expression was somewhat dejected.

It seems he felt outdone by the younger generation.

It seemed that Ye Jingcheng could handle it, while he was still immersed in the past.

Ye Jingcheng did not linger any longer, but followed Ye Haicheng towards the outside of the auction hall building.

This time, however, they didn't head towards the Spirit Beast shop, but rather towards the Ye Family's restaurant.

The Ye Family's restaurant is located in the more central part of the market, where the Spiritual Qi is relatively stronger, and it also offers some spiritual dishes.

For other cultivators, spiritual food might just be used to satisfy their appetites, but Ye Haicheng could use it to improve his physical body.

Especially the Ye Family's Star-Eating Fish.

Of course, even after so much time has passed, the Ye Family's Star-Eating Fish still hasn't produced a second-tier Fish King.

The three of them soon arrived at the Ye Family's restaurant.

The Ye Family's restaurant was now packed with people.

This would have been impossible in the past.

After all, this is just the Taihang Marketplace, and even if there is an auction, there will only be a few thousand cultivators at most.

Almost all of them were independent cultivators at the Qi Rogue Cultivator, so they didn't have many Spirit Stones.

"Uncle, with you in charge of the Lineage business, our Ye Family won't have to worry about finances for hundreds of years!" Ye Jingcheng said with a smile.

Although the popularity is partly due to the auction and the recent unusual behavior of the cultivators.

But there is no doubt that Ye Xinghe also made a great contribution.

"Master, please don't make fun of your uncle. It was you who suggested the policy for this restaurant!" Ye Xinghe waved his hand.

Members of the clan also came out of the restaurant to greet Ye Jingcheng and his party.

Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xinghe immediately waved their hands, telling them to continue their work. Ye Jingcheng walked through the doorway and took a spirit fruit from the plates of several spirit rats beside him.

Ye Jingcheng was surprised that these spirit rats were still here.

However, he also considered that combining Spirit Beast as servants with restaurants might be more effective in Taichang Market.

After all, female cultivators have seen so many serving as waitresses; perhaps Spirit Beast are more popular.

It's entirely possible that it will be bought.

This is much more profitable than selling the female cultivators of the Lineage.

Moreover, the restaurant business in Taichang Market is currently controlled by the Kong Family.

It doesn't matter if the Ye Family gets a share of the pie; after all, a few more lice won't make a difference.

In any case, the Kong Family will still try to take advantage of the Ye Family whenever they have the chance.

This spiritual fruit was actually a spiritual peach. Ye Jingcheng took a bite and found it sweet.

As the head of the family, he didn't take the items intentionally; rather, he wanted to see what the Ye Family's Spirit Cuisine and reputation were really like.

It's considered a random inspection.

Even so, he still took out several Spirit Stones and handed them to the manager of Ye Family Restaurant.

After finishing their business, the three of them went up to the third floor of the restaurant.

"Grandpa, do you think you have a chance of winning this time?" Once inside the restaurant and the Array was set up, Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but worry about Ye Haicheng.

"There's no chance of winning, and even if we could win, we wouldn't be able to!" Ye Haicheng shook his head.

On the surface, this situation is about the division of the Kong Family Jin Family, and the Purple Mansion Lineage, but once it gets involved, there will definitely be external forces from the Jindan Lineage involved.

The interests of the market are now a fait accompli.

The Taihang Marketplace will inevitably fall into the hands of the Jin Family and Kong Family.

Even with Taihao Master Qian He watching from the sidelines.

"We still need to maintain some contact with the Xu Family, and the Chu Family definitely knows something!" Ye Haicheng said confidently.

"There's no problem with the Xu Family, but it's probably going to be difficult with the Chu Family. Chu Xiyu hasn't revealed a single word!" Ye Jingcheng shook his head.

Besides contacting Chu Xiyu, he couldn't help but also have some probing intentions.

But clearly, Chu Xiyu paid him no attention whatsoever.

As for the Xu Family, they probably know less than the Ye Family.

"Is there any news about the Lineage's influence within the Taiyi Sect?" Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but ask.

Taiyi Sect continuously infiltrated Lineage, naturally, Lineage would also infiltrate sects.

Moreover, sects are easier to infiltrate than Lineage.

This is evident from Ye Jingcheng's purchase of the Spirit Gathering Formation and Spirit Gathering Spirit Stone.

But it's clear that the Ye Family members haven't reached that high a position yet.

Not many people know about it.

"No, let's just take it one step at a time. If there's no other way, then that's all we can do!" Ye Haicheng shook his head and sighed.
