Yanqing's Breakthrough, Asking About the Progress

In the antique-style room, the Moonlight Stone shone softly.

However, at this moment, the sky-blue light in the room was unusually intense.

Inside the room, a vortex of energy condensed, absorbing the Spiritual Qi of the entire Spirit Mountain.

Even the purple, cold bed appeared somewhat dim at this moment.

Chu Yanqing sat on the cold bed, her beautiful eyes closed, feeling the torrent of Spiritual Qi surging from her Dao Meridian, her eyes filled with joy.

"As expected, the Spiritual Qi in the Dao veins of a spirit body is much stronger!" Chu Yanqing murmured to herself.

With the Spiritual Qi within this Spirit Vein, condensing the Purple Mansion is not difficult at all; she can even refine the Purple Mansion.

At this moment, Chu Yanqing couldn't help but sigh. After more than sixty years, she had finally reached the point where she could break through to the Purple Mansion.

It should be noted that even Chu Tianfen, the most powerful member of the Chu Family, was only at the early stage of the Purple Mansion.

However, at that moment, Chu Yanqing felt a wave of dizziness as her Divine Soul entered the mansion, and the scene before her eyes suddenly changed.

"Mother, Father says I have Spirit Roots, so I can cultivate immortality!"

"Mother, Mother, please come up the mountain with me. They say there are beautiful spirit trees, sweet spirit fruits, and spirit flowers that never wither on the mountain." The small figure pulled a woman dressed in a light blue robe, running along.

The woman had a smile on her face and tried to control her steps, but she didn't want to move forward.

But she was also afraid of hurting the child in front of her.

"Your mother is proud of you, but I can't go up the mountain. There are many of my friends down here, and they will have a hard time without me."

"My mother is the village doctor."

"But if Mother doesn't come up the mountain with Qing'er, Qing'er will be very sad too."

"Then, Qing'er, can you stay away from the mountain for your mother?" the woman asked again.

Upon hearing this, the little girl stopped running, her eyes filled with hesitation.

She turned around and looked at the tall mountain in the distance.

The mountain was so high that even with her excellent eyesight, she couldn't see its edge; all she could see were countless white clouds deeply burying the mountain peaks.

But she knew that her father was on that mountain.

"Qing'er, your mother is just a mortal. I'll be lucky to live another seventy or eighty years. But you and your father are both cultivators with unlimited lifespans. Would you be willing to waste these days to keep your mother company?"

The woman stretched out her hands in front of the little girl, revealing hands covered in calluses.

Her face wasn't old, but her hands already had many wrinkles and appeared red and swollen, showing signs of aging.

After hesitating for a moment, the little girl nodded emphatically.

She gently stroked those aged hands.

Tears welled in her eyes; in that moment, she seemed to understand something.

This made the woman hesitate, but she still pulled the little girl and kept walking towards her door.

I walked through the town's streets and familiar alleyways.

We arrived at a small courtyard, where an apricot tree stood gracefully, laden with apricots.

"Mother, do you regret marrying my father?" the little girl suddenly asked, her voice no longer childish but choked with sobs.

"Qing'er, why do you say that...?"

The little girl didn't answer; instead, she picked an apricot from the apricot tree next to her.

"Mother, you said that this is the apricot tree that Father planted for you, but Father has never been able to pick apricots with you."

"Today, Qing'er will pick one for you on behalf of your father."

The woman took the apricots, her eyes seemingly glistening with tears.

"Mother, this is Qing'er's Heart Demon Tribulation! Mother, you mustn't cry!" The little girl cried first when she saw this scene.

"Mother, do you know that Qing'er has been alone on the mountain for more than ten years? Qing'er has also been working very hard to cultivate. Father said that as long as you cultivate hard enough, you can come up the mountain, but Qing'er is useless. Even when you were very sick, I couldn't get you up the mountain. Now Qing'er regrets not being able to bring you up Idle Cloud Mountain back then. Qing'er doesn't care about the rules on the mountain now."

"Qing'er remembers what you said. Qing'er found a spiritual Body Cultivator just like herself, a cultivator she can never catch up to. Sometimes he's clumsy, sometimes he's annoying, but like you, he's good to Qing'er..."

"Mother..."

Chu Yanqing still had a lot to say, but the figure of the woman in front of her grew fainter and fainter.

Chu Yanqing felt a sharp pain in her heart.

This damned Heart Demon has stirred up her painful memories, and now she's not even allowed to say a few more words.

"Mother, when the apricot trees bloom every year, Qing'er will wait for you to pick the spirit apricots together."

Chu Yanqing tried to shout, but she found that her figure had grown larger, and she appeared on Idle Cloud Peak.

They even appeared in the Council Hall.

All the Clan Elders surrounded her.

I talked to her about what we should do in the future.

Even her father was controlled by these Clan Elders.

She wasn't doing badly, but people kept telling her that she was the daughter of the family head, that she was a spiritual Body Cultivator, and that she needed to do better.

She had always considered herself the heir to the family headship and the future head of the family, but that was not the life she wanted.

"Yan Qing, how could you like Ye Jingcheng? He's one of our enemies!"

"The Ye Family attacked my Chu Family's spirit valley, killed my Chu Lineage members, and the Beast Tide was also instigated by the Ye Family. You can like anyone, but you just can't like Ye Jingcheng!"

"And what's wrong with you now? You haven't avenged the Chu Family. Have you forgotten your place?"

Amidst the shouts of insults and even the accompanying images, Chu Yanqing, even knowing she was Heart Demon Tribulation, became utterly confused.

The scene clearly showed a battle between the Ye Family and the Chu Family, and also clearly showed Beast Tide unleashed by the Ye Family, causing countless deaths and injuries to the Chu Family.

The Ye Family even conspired with the Jin Family, and it should be noted that the Jin Family was the culprit who drove the Chu Family to their deaths.

"Father, no!" Chu Yanqing held her head, wanting to deny it, but at this moment she couldn't.

She is the hope of the Chu Family, the spiritual embodiment of the Chu Family, and the next head of the Chu Family.

She could no longer distinguish things; her body was wracked with intense pain.

All around, I could hear the voices of my uncles, father, and grandfather.

The next moment, she saw Ye Jingcheng slaughtering members of the Chu Lineage.

Large numbers of tribesmen fell into pools of blood, amidst cries for help, shouts, and screams of pain.

"Stop talking!" Chu Yanqing shouted.

At this moment, another heart-wrenching pain shot through her body, and the invigorating effect of the Purple Palace Jade Liquid, combined with the effects of the Purple Jade Cold Bed, instantly brought Chu Yanqing back to her senses for a moment.

She then realized that this was not just heart-wrenching pain, but clearly the collapse of her Purple Mansion.

She raised her head again, looking at the Clan Elders and her family before her.

"Father, uncles, we still dare not forget the family feud, but not now. Once Yan Qing and the others have advanced to the Golden Core stage, we will definitely take revenge!"

"That's been too long, Ye Family are our enemies!"

"Yan Qing, the Jin Family has no more Golden Core cultivators. His Golden Core is injured!"

"Enough! Do you think I'd believe what you Heart Demons say?" Chu Yanqing roared.

This shout immediately silenced the noisy uncles and elders.

Only her father, Chu Xiyu, and her aunt Chu Xiyu, remained.

"Yan Qing, how does he treat you?"

Chu Xiyu finally spoke, his expression solemn, seemingly devoid of any demonic aura.

Upon hearing this, Chu Yanqing almost burst into tears.

"Father, he was very good to me. He even saved Qing'er. At that time, when Qing'er thought her life was over, he saved her. But he was also so hateful. However, Qing'er can never forget him. He also has a spirit apricot tree, and the spirit apricots are very large..."

Chu Yanqing wanted to say something more, but Chu Xiyu and Chu Xiyu in front of him had both disappeared; they hadn't even heard him finish speaking.

Perhaps it's good to hear that sentence.

Tears welled up in her eyes. When she opened them again, she found herself in that antique-style room.

The room contained the Moonlight Stone he had placed there, and the scent of his presence.

She is not alone!

She raised her hand and began to gather her Purple Mansion again.

This time, the condensation went exceptionally smoothly, and Chu Yanqing felt the surrounding Spiritual Qi continuing to surge in.

The Spirit Veins of Soaring Cloud Peak are better and higher than those of Idle Cloud Mountain.

Moreover, due to Soaring Cloud Lake, there seems to be more Water Attribute Spiritual Qi there.

Then, as the final Purple Mansion was formed, a booming sound was heard, and a ripple of spiritual light spread outwards.

"It's done!" The group of cultivators waiting outside were all beaming with joy.

The Ye family's Lingyun Peak has gained another Purple Mansion. Although Chu Yanqing was married into the family, she should follow her husband wherever he goes, since the Chu family is no more.

Chu Yanqing will at most seek revenge later.

"You've worked hard!" Ye Jingcheng said softly.

"Thank you, Brother Cheng!" Chu Yanqing inside also spoke up, and tried to come out to see everyone.

But Ye Jingcheng directly rejected him.

"You should first consolidate your cultivation. If you need any spirit medicine, just give me a call."

After speaking, Ye Jingcheng looked at the rest of the Ye Family members.

"Jinghu, Uncle Xingqun, let's keep this a secret for now!"

The others nodded in agreement; Chu Yanqing's matter still needed to be carefully protected from excessive investigation.

Especially the Purple Palace Jade Liquid, which Ye Jingcheng had half-promised to Ye Jingteng. If the other party immediately came to ask for it, it wouldn't fit into the Ye Family's plan.

"How are the Spirit Beast meat and spirit pills the Lineage has been preparing lately? I'll bring them to Taichang Market with me!" Ye Jingcheng asked again.

"Everything is ready!" Ye Jinghu nodded.

The group quickly left, while Ye Jingcheng remained in front of the courtyard to continue protecting Chu Yanqing.

He then took out the Jade Slip containing the insect array and continued his study.

Three days passed slowly, and countless points of light appeared in Ye Jingcheng's hand. These points of light intertwined and combined in the air, transforming into an even more intense drum of light.

This was Ye Jingcheng deducing the insect array. If he continued to use the Thunder Rhinoceros Beetle for deduction, it would cause great damage to Spirit Mountain, so it could only be done occasionally.

"Brother Cheng!" At this moment, Chu Yanqing finally emerged from seclusion, her cultivation completely concealed, but her whole body appeared even more Water Spirit and agile.

She truly resembled a flower fairy descended to earth.

"These are two third-tier Water Attribute spirit pills to consolidate your cultivation. You can use them to further strengthen your foundation!" Ye Jingcheng took out a jade bottle and handed it to Chu Yanqing.

Then he took out several Water Spirit Pearls.

Although this Water Spirit Pearl is not a third-tier orb, but only a second-tier high-grade Water Spirit Pearl, it is still quite useful because Chu Yanqing is Water Attribute cultivator.

"What is this?" Chu Yanqing asked hesitantly.

"The Water Spirit Pearl can eliminate some of the side effects of elixirs, but it's only at the second tier!" Ye Jingcheng explained patiently.

The two of them sat down at the stone table in the courtyard.

Above us stood a dark sky still shrouded in rain and apricot trees laden with fallen blossoms.

The surrounding area was filled with flower petals, creating a unique and charming atmosphere.

Chu Yanqing looked at Ye Jingcheng and suddenly asked:

"Brother Cheng, how is your cultivation progressing?" Chu Yanqing asked, a blush creeping onto her face.

She naturally wanted to help Ye Jingcheng break through to the late stage of the Purple Mansion.

But this is more suitable for breaking through to a higher realm.

"There's no rush. Let's go to Taichang Market first. Do you want to come along? You can change your appearance now." Ye Jingcheng shook his head and then asked.

"No, going to Taichang Market is meaningless to me. Brother Cheng, you go ahead. If you find any Water Attribute treasures, you can bring me a few back." Chu Yanqing shook her head.

She knew that her identity was not suitable for going to Taichang Market.

Although Ye Jingcheng promised to take her, she herself could not go.

Besides, she had indeed just broken through.

It still needs further consolidation.

After chatting with Chu Yanqing for a few more minutes, Ye Jingcheng left. He had already been delayed for three days, and if he delayed any longer, he would miss the bustling Taichang Market.

When he arrived at the square, he saw many of his clansmen already waiting there.

Most of these clansmen were Alchemists, followed by Ye Jingli and Ye Jinghu.

Neither Ye Xingqun nor Ye Xing shui went.

After all, they all broke through to the Foundation Establishment after the age of sixty, and it might be exposed if they went there. In addition, they would rather give the opportunity to the younger members of their clan.

Among the Qi Refining cultivators, Ye Qingwen and Ye Qingfeng, both of the Qing generation, possess dual Spirit Roots.

This time, a total of fifteen people went to Taichang Market.

Ye Jingcheng took out a third-tier Spirit Boat, which was a Spirit Boat from the Taiyi Sect.

Ye Xingqun and the others handed over Storage Bags, which contained not only elixirs and Spirit Beasts, but also a considerable amount of Spirit Stones.

This auction will be more like a treasure trove than Foundation Establishment and Purple Palace Jade Liquid; there might even be Gold Condensation Pills. So there will definitely be a lot of treasures inside, so it's natural to prepare plenty of Spirit Stones.

Ye Jingcheng didn't say much. He saw that his Lineage had prepared 200,000 Spirit Stones, but compared to his own 2 million Spirit Stones, it was nothing.

To Ye Jingcheng's surprise, there were also two Azure Spirit Tokens among them.

"Patriarch, this Azure Spirit Token was sold by Rogue Cultivator. Many Foundation Establishment Rogue Cultivator obtained the Azure Spirit Token knew they had no treasures to exchange for it, so they sold it," Ye Xingqun explained from the side.

After thinking about it carefully, Ye Jingcheng immediately understood.

After all, with the Zhao Kingdom and Yan Kingdom now united by marriage, the Azure Spirit Commerce Association can promote itself more openly.

It wasn't entirely unexpected that these Rogue Cultivators obtained it.

From this perspective, both the auction and the Azure Spirit Night Market could be good opportunities for Ye Jingcheng to find treasures.

"Let's go!" Seeing that everyone was ready, Ye Jingcheng's Spirit Boat took off and headed towards Taichang Market!
