Jing Vine's Thoughts, the Reason

Soaring Cloud Lake, the turbulent waters have completely calmed down, and the entire lake surface still appears crystal clear.

Some spirit fish swam up and chased each other on the Jade Lotus.

The dew on the Jade Lotus was knocked off and dripped down.

Ye Jingcheng activated the original Soaring Cloud Lake Array, and then set up five more isolation Array before entering the underground palace.

He took out the Cold Jade Bed, and even took out a Jade Soul Pill and swallowed it, then silently recited the Treasure-Linking Art.

Only after keeping his Divine Soul and spirit highly active did he begin to ponder carefully.

He was neither injured nor unstable, so he didn't need to consolidate his strength; he only needed to think about the next steps.

He firmly believed that his previous guess was correct, and that only possession was the most suitable method for Tianfu True Person's current State of Mind.

Moreover, Tianfu True Person said that Purple Extreme Patriarch had passed away and the Taiyi Sect was in imminent danger, Ye Jingcheng did not believe.

If that were truly the case, Tianfu True Person would never have told him.

After all, he was an outsider, Green River Sect could attack at any time. At this moment, he should keep the secret even more tightly.

Moreover, the secret of the Purple Extreme Patriarch is definitely the highest secret of the Taiyi Sect. If the Taiyi Sect leader wanted to keep the secret, he probably wouldn't have told Tianfu True Person.

Moreover, thirteen years have passed since the incident occurred.

If the Taiyi Sect didn't have a solution, it would be impossible for them to be so united. Taihang Commandery and Taiqing Commandery have been in turmoil, but the largest Taichang Commandery, has never had any problems.

This shows that Taiyi Sect has always been confident in its plans.

Moreover, Tianfu True Person is clearly the original body, but he claims to be an avatar. If he can take on disciples, his avatar can also do so.

Then Tianfu True Person must be determining something, because the divided souls sent out by the clone are far less powerful than the main soul's Divine Sense.

In some details, it is not as good as the main soul.

After thinking for a while, Ye Jingcheng still had no clue. In his opinion, if Tianfu True Person really wanted to possess someone's body, now was his best opportunity.

The opportunity to be alone together had arrived, and the Array was all set up, but Tianfu True Person seemed to have changed his mind and left.

He was left with treasures and a legacy.

While pondering the issue and unable to come up with a solution, Ye Jingcheng changed his perspective again.

He stopped thinking about Tianfu True Person's scheming and began to consider whether Tianfu True Person truly wanted to take on a disciple.

If Tianfu True Person harbored no ill will towards him, Tianfu True Person, as someone who sought a way out for his sect, have done?

He put himself in the shoes of the sect, thinking that if his lifespan were to end and the sect were in grave danger, he would need to find a successor to pass on his Divine Ability Cultivation Method, thus securing a future for the sect.

So what will be transmitted?

I will definitely teach you how to escape; Ye Jingcheng must swear an oath!

They even went so far as to have Ye Jingcheng step down and join the Taiyi Sect, since the head of the family could be replaced.

Thinking of this, Ye Jingcheng felt much clearer-headed!

Tianfu True Person only showed good intentions, but showed no real direction for taking on disciples.

Moreover, the extremely anxious Tianfu True Person seemed to lose all his urgency upon seeing him.

Not only did they not investigate him, but they also did not test him, which was completely inconsistent with Tianfu True Person's previous actions.

Ye Jingcheng thought about it for a long time and concluded that it could only mean one thing: Tianfu True Person was still confirming the matter and was even asking him to continue cultivating the Supreme Clarity Spirit-Guarding Art!

Thinking of this, Ye Jingcheng breathed a sigh of relief.

He took out the Lineage Token and sent a telepathic message to Ye Haicheng.

If he wasn't mistaken, Tianfu True Person should have gone to Earth Dragon Valley to investigate...

By the afternoon, the disciples of the Taiyi Sect had returned, indicating that the Beast Tide had obviously rushed back.

The entire Soaring Cloud Peak was bustling with activity, as if a victory celebration had already begun. Many clansmen were expressing their joy, and some were even exchanging their spoils on the mountain.

Especially those cultivators who practice Earth Attribute Cultivation Method, they tirelessly use Spirit Beast meat and Spirit Beast inner cores.

Ye Jingcheng was not surprised by this scene, because the Beast Tide was just manipulated by Ye Haicheng and his group behind the scenes. Once the four Golden Lizard Great Demons died, the Beast Tide from Earth Dragon Valley would be completely driven into the Ethereal Mountain Range.

Ye Jingcheng did not emerge from seclusion, because he still needed to remain in seclusion at this time.

With Tianfu True Person not returning, Ye Jingcheng's thoughts became even more certain.

Moreover, the Fourth Stage Array on Soaring Cloud Peak has not yet been removed.

The Ye Family has no way to break this Fourth Stage Array; they can only enter and exit using the formation flags given to them by Tianfu True Person.

In the Ye Family's Council Hall, Ye Jingyun and Ye Jingli invited Taihao Master into the hall, with Ye Jinghu accompanying them.

Taihao Master spoke eloquently, explaining the situation in the Taihang Mountain Range.

"Young friend Jingyun, the Beast Tide in Earth Dragon Valley has now retreated deep into the Ethereal Mountain Range. The Beast Tide here has been almost completely dealt with, and we should be leaving now!"

"Senior Taihao, the Ye Family has no way to repay the sect's kindness in saving our clan this time. We can only offer more tribute in the future and contribute our strength to the sect. In addition, we hereby guarantee that even if it costs the lives of more than a hundred members of the Ye Family, we will definitely defend Soaring Cloud Peak to the death!" Ye Jingyun also said repeatedly.

His eyes were filled with eagerness.

Taihao Master seemed to understand Ye Jingyun's meaning and had no intention of continuing to lead the Ye Family members to Jade Dragon Valley.

"My master has already gone to Jade Dragon Valley. In a couple of days, the Beast Tide will be quelled, and the Taihang Mountain Range will be safe. This time, the Ye Family will not need to send anyone to Jade Dragon Valley!" Taihao Master also sat in the main seat of the hall.

Ye Jingyun carefully served tea to the latter, and then poured tea for Ye Jingteng and other Taiyi Sect disciples as well.

Now, Taiyi Sect is a top sect. Once you enter the sect, even if you are just in the early stages of Foundation Establishment Foundation Establishment Early Stage, you will receive high-level treatment in the Ye Family.

"Thank you, Senior Taihao. This is a small token of the Ye Family's appreciation for the disciples of Illusion Peak!" Ye Jingyun took out a Storage Bag and put in some precious spirit medicine.

Taihao Master smiled, but did not accept it.

"Ye Family is now my junior brother. How can these material possessions compare to the bond between us brothers? Fellow Daoist Ye, please take them back immediately!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingyun awkwardly withdrew his phone.

He continued to pour tea for Taihao Master, and in the meantime, he also asked someone to select some local specialties of Soaring Cloud Peak and some young Spirit Beasts for the other cultivators of Illusion Peak.

Then they started talking about interesting stories about the Ye Family and the situation in the Ethereal Mountain Range.

However, upon closer inspection, one will discover that beneath the surface heat lies a subtle, almost imperceptible barrier.

Ye Jingyun and Ye Jingli are Lineage cultivators, so how could they not mind that Jade Dragon Valley's Illusion Peak did not emerge, resulting in numerous deaths and injuries among the Ye Family members?

But given the circumstances, even if one harbors immense hatred, one cannot show it.

Of course, it's also possible that this was all Tianfu True Person's order.

Meanwhile, Ye Jingteng watched Ye Jinghu with interest from the side of the lobby.

"Jinghu, I am Jing Teng from the Jing generation, and you have the Thunder Spirit Root?"

"Yes, brother!" Ye Jinghu replied, though somewhat reluctantly.

"What level of cultivation Cultivation Method do you practice? Do you have any elixirs to aid your cultivation? Do you have any good magical Law Artifacts?" Ye Jingteng continued to ask, as if he had discovered a new continent.

After all, the Ye Family disciples that Ye Jingteng had previously brought in were all of average talent.

At first, he was very enthusiastic, but since the Cultivation Resources of these Ye Family members all depended on him and their progress was too slow, he lost interest.

They started to let all the Ye Family members roam freely, only giving them occasional benefits, and only providing focused support to promising talents.

These members of the Ye Family had not performed well within the Ye Family, and when they entered the sect and competed with other disciples of the Taiyi Sect, their results were naturally even worse.

He has been extremely troubled over the years.

After all, for ordinary Lineage, having three Spirit Roots is considered good talent, and having two Spirit Roots is considered genius. But in sects, it's different. Having two Spirit Roots is considered good, and having Heavenly Spirit Roots or unusual Spirit Roots is considered genius.

Of the Ye Family he took away, only one or two had three Spirit Roots; the rest had four Spirit Roots, and their temperaments were not satisfactory.

It is rare for someone to demonstrate significant potential within a sect.

But in his opinion, if Ye Jinghu with the Thunder Spirit Root went to the Taichang Mountain Range, things would be completely different.

Furthermore, given that Ye Jingcheng is also a disciple of Tianfu True Person, their Ye Family's progress in occupying Illusion Peak will definitely take a giant leap forward. With further resource integration, they can help him break through to the Purple Mansion.

The Ye Family's grand plan has succeeded!

"No need for you to trouble yourself, brother. Jinghu has already mastered all the cultivation Cultivation Method and has two Law Artifacts!" Ye Jinghu shook his head, not wanting to say more.

Although he knew that Ye Jingteng was also a member of the Ye Family generation, Ye Jinghu still looked down on Ye Jingteng.

They always want the Ye Family to send people to the Taiyi Sect, but every time they do, it undoubtedly puts the Ye Family at risk, since the Ye Family's secret realm can only place the Ye Family's soul restriction, not the sect's soul restriction.

That would be too easy for the Ye Family to run into trouble.

As for the appeal of sects, Ye Jinghu felt they had none whatsoever.

All he wants now is to hatch the Thunder Roc, nurture Thunder Roc, improve his cultivation, and shoulder the responsibility of being a genius with Thunder Spirit Root in the Ye Family.

Ye Jingteng wanted to say more, but he noticed that Taihao Master was getting up to leave. Although Ye Jingteng was unwilling, he couldn't disobey Taihao Master, so he followed him to Jade Dragon Valley.

As the Spirit Boat sailed away, Ye Jingli and Ye Jingyun breathed a sigh of relief.

They watched the departing Spirit Boat and the ravaged mountains in the distance.

Worry appeared in their eyes, and finally they all looked in the direction of Soaring Cloud Lake.

They just hoped that Ye Jingcheng was alright.

"Sixth Brother, I'm going to deliver the array flags to the Patriarch's courtyard!" Ye Jingyun glanced at it twice, and finally spoke up, heading towards Ye Jingcheng's courtyard.

As night fell and the Lineage Token lit up, Ye Jingcheng awoke from his cultivation.

He changed into a Daoist robe, left Soaring Cloud Lake, and first went to his own courtyard.

The Array was still the Array. As soon as he activated Array, a melodious female voice echoed from the courtyard:

"Jingcheng, the apricots are ripe!"

"We'll pick them later, the apricots can still grow for a few more days!" Ye Jingcheng said with a smile to Chu Yanqing.

Chu Yanqing then loosened her Jade Slip on the jade slip in her hand.

This was an agreement made in advance between the two. Although Chu Yanqing didn't know what it meant, she knew that not taking it off meant there was no problem.

Chu Yanqing had intended to invite Ye Jingcheng into the house for a chat, but Ye Jingcheng disappeared into the night once again.

Chu Yanqing then took out a new array flag and threw it into the darkness.

A short while later, Ye Jingcheng and the battle flag disappeared together.

Outside Soaring Cloud Peak, Ye Jingcheng emerged from the mountain and the Array. At this moment, his appearance, aura, and cultivation had all changed.

With the Blood Soul Pearl present, no one could recognize Ye Jingcheng at this moment.

He walked into a nearby mountain peak.

This mountain peak is a Beast Valley belonging to the Ye Family, where they keep the Ye Family's Mountain-Devouring Rats.

However, due to the recent Beast Tide, all the Mountain-Devouring Rats had been stored away in Spirit Beast bags, making the entire valley unusually empty. But Ye Jingcheng stopped in a cave.

A spiritual light emanated from the Beast-Link Mark on his hand.

A moment later, two more figures emerged.

"Jingcheng, it's so good that you're alright!" Ye Haicheng Ye Haiyan standing next to him.

However, as the two men took two steps forward, Ye Jingcheng took two steps back.

As Ye Family, they naturally knew that they needed to understand each other's Beast-Link Mark.

Ye Haicheng and Ye Haiyan immediately did as instructed.

Ye Jingcheng then released the Array.

"Great-Grandpa, Sixth Grandpa!" Ye Jingcheng said.

"Tianfu True Person did not possess another body. I want to know if Tianfu True Person went to Earth Dragon Valley!"

"He went, but he didn't go to Granary Mountain where Azure Cloud Nunnery is located. He went to Earth Dragon Valley and is investigating the location of the Earth Dragon Demon King!" This time, it was Ye Xuecang in the void who spoke.

Ye Xuecang also took the Bone-Transforming Pill and his appearance changed.

He looked at Ye Jingcheng:

"Jingcheng, what's your father's name?"

Clearly, Ye Xuecang wanted to test it out further.

"Ye Zhen!" Ye Jingcheng said. Although they had never met, the old town mayor had told him about him.

So Ye Jingcheng remembers.

Ye Xuecang also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although possession will erode many memories, there are too many memories, even for True Person's Divine Sense to digest. At this time, he will choose to remember some key content.

As for the name of the ordinary father, I basically won't look at it.

In particular, Ye Jingcheng was an orphan since childhood.

"Second Grand Uncle, I think I understand what Tianfu True Person is looking for. He probably suspects that we've cooperated with the Earth Dragon Demon King!"

"He wouldn't dare to make a move now!" Ye Jingcheng said worriedly.

Although there is almost no evidence left of the cooperation between the Ye Family and the Earth Dragon Valley, it does not stop cultivators from speculating.

He would definitely be thorough in his considerations and leave no trace of a seasoned cultivator like Tianfu True Person!

Moreover, the Earth Dragon Demon King knows too much; he doesn't seem like a Demon Race Demon King at all, but rather like a Human Race Golden Core cultivator.

"So as long as the Earth Dragon Demon King doesn't appear, he won't make a move!"

"Because when someone possesses another body, their original body must be nearby!" Ye Jingcheng stated definitively.

"Yes, that's how it should be. And next, he will definitely summon you to the Taichang Mountain Range. I just don't know what reason Tianfu True Person will give you that you won't be able to refuse, even if you're just trying to consolidate your cultivation!"

Ye Xuecang nodded as well.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng's eyes lit up!

He suddenly realized what excuse Tianfu True Person would use next.

Once that excuse is given, even if his cultivation is not well consolidated, he will definitely have to take the elixir and go!

Because he is now Registered Disciple of Tianfu True Person.

And it's already widely acknowledged!

"Second Grand Uncle, I will now have Yunhe and Jingli continue to support Jade Dragon Valley!"

"We must know the situation in Jade Dragon Valley as soon as possible!"

"If nothing unexpected happens, the turmoil among the Demon Race in the Taihang Mountain Range will be quelled!" Ye Jingcheng said confidently.
