Jiang's Explanation, the Ye Family's Ambition

The room in the restaurant opened, and the sandalwood smoke from the incense burner swirled within. At this moment, Ye Jingcheng's figure seemed to become even more unfathomable because of the swirling sandalwood smoke.

Jiang Jinghe glanced at it and immediately felt an increased pressure in his heart, so he looked away instantly.

There was no spiritual food on the table, only a pot of spiritual tea, which was also Spring Welcoming Tea.

This caused Jiang Jinghe's expression to stiffen for a moment, but it quickly vanished without a trace.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, may I ask what you have to say?"

"Of course I will listen. Please sit down, Ward Master Jiang. The Ye Family must also follow the trend of Taihang Marketplace!" Ye Jingcheng invited politely.

Then the Array was activated, enveloping the entire room.

"It would be unwise for Fellow Daoist Ye to emerge from seclusion now!" Jiang Jinghe sighed.

"Not only has Jin Chengyun recovered his cultivation, but a new member of the Jin Family, Jin Xuanhen, Purple Mansion also broken through to the Golden Core stage. I met Jin Xuanhen in my younger days; his talent is indeed remarkable. Furthermore, the Jin Family now has a close relationship with Purple Peak..."

Jiang Jinghe explained all the relationships and their implications, then took out a Storage Bag.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, I dare not forget what happened back then, but unfortunately the other party wanted some pledges of loyalty. However, I never dared to touch the Ye Family. Even those who maliciously damaged the reputation were not my doing. What I did was only the operation of resources and the Earth Fire Chamber. And I have always felt guilty about these things, as the Earth Fire Chamber missed out on profits over the years!" Jiang Jinghe said.

Ye Jingcheng took the Storage Bag but didn't even look at it before placing it on the table, which made Jiang Jinghe's heart skip a beat once again.

He feared the Jin Family, but he also feared the Ye Family.

Everyone assumed that the Ye Family's Foundation Establishment were obtained through him, but he knew perfectly well that the Ye Family's Foundation Establishment were either refined by him or obtained through other means.

Moreover, the chances of a cultivator from the Ye Family breaking through to the Foundation Establishment were far too high, which made him suspect that the Ye Family had hidden strength.

With Ye Jingcheng breaking through to the Purple Mansion, he soon gained the ability to refine Purple Palace Jade Liquid, demonstrating the immense potential of the Ye Family.

Therefore, he didn't want to offend either of them.

"Ward Master Jiang doesn't think that what he said back then was just a few jokes, does he?" Ye Jingcheng finally spoke up.

Of course, although he pretended not to look at the Storage Bag, in fact, his Divine Sense had already covered it.

It's just that his Divine Sense far surpasses Jiang Jinghe's, so the other party can't detect him.

The Storage Bag contained quite a lot of items: two Foundation Establishment, nearly ten thousand Spirit Stone, many precious alchemy Spirit Material, and even Spirit Material for Dream-Swallowing Pill and Sunflower Wood.

It certainly has a heart.

However, they haven't come to the Ye Family to deliver any messages all these years.

How could Ye Jingcheng truly forgive Jiang Jinghe for such a small benefit?

Even if the other party didn't have the chance to send a telepathic message to the Ye Family, they could have done even better.

"Of course not, Fellow Daoist Ye. What I said back then was true. It's just that the current situation is overwhelming. I have already tried to maneuver in this matter, but the other side is too powerful, and I am powerless to do anything about it!" Jiang Jinghe said helplessly.

Then he took out the spirit wine himself.

"Alright then, Fellow Daoist Ye, I, Jiang, will punish myself with three cups!" Jiang Jinghe drank three cups in a row.

Ye Jingcheng didn't reply, and Jiang Jinghe froze in place.

For a long while, the air was deathly silent.

Jiang Jinghe's face even twitched slightly as it tried to change color, but it eventually turned into a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, the one who made the move this time is very likely Jin Yurong. He is currently in the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm and possesses a third-grade high-quality Law Treasure. His strength should not be underestimated!"

Ye Jingcheng still did not reply.

This made Jiang Jinghe break out in a cold sweat, and he didn't know what to do for a moment. In the end, he had to add:

"Fellow Daoist Ye, regarding the Taihang Marketplace matter, Senior Brother Xiao from Purple Peak also contacted me, subtly expressing his support for the Jin Family."

"What I said today is absolutely true. Fellow Daoist Ye, you are welcome to use the Spirit-Inquiring Talisman!" Jiang Jinghe said again.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Senior Brother Xiao he mentioned is indeed True Disciple of Purple Peak, Xiao Yufeng, who is a disciple of Zitian True Person.

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng finally spoke:

"Go back and continue organizing the Taihang Competition. I won't hold what happened before against you, but you can choose what to do in the future!" Ye Jingcheng waved his hand, and Jiang Jinghe immediately felt relieved.

As he stepped out of the room, the back of his shirt was slightly damp.

You should know that he wouldn't act like this even when facing Xiao Yufeng of Purple Peak.

Faced with Ye Jingcheng's actions, he couldn't help but guess that Ye Jingcheng must have broken through to the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm.

He couldn't help but regret not having sent Ye Family earlier.

Even so, in his view, the Ye Family didn't have much of a chance of winning.

He sighed deeply and left.

Within a hill, a secluded cave abode dwelling was located, where a cultivator was enjoying spiritual wine and food with great pleasure.

At that moment, with a loud thud, the mountainside suddenly shook violently.

He quickly took out his Law Artifact and then the Array.

Then he took out a puppet and tried to make it face outside.

But the next moment, boom!

They then pried open the sealed stone door and entered.

At this moment, even if he wanted to escape, he couldn't.

A cultivator dressed in the Ye Family Dao Robe stepped out:

"Fellow Daoist Xun, you previously spread rumors in the Rogue Cultivator Plaza that our Ye Family's spiritual food was unclean and contained a lot of ordinary meat. I've come here to demand an explanation," Ye Qingwen as he entered the cave abode.

This immediately caused the man's expression to change drastically:

"Senior Ye, I was dizzy that day, please don't take it to heart!" The cultivator surnamed Xun said repeatedly, but Ye Qingwen had already rushed forward.

In his shock and anger, he threw out a thunder talisman!

They wanted to find a way to survive out of thin air.

However, Ye Qingwen has now switched to cultivating the Profound Wasteland Tyrant Body Secret Canon. Even without activating the Profound Runes, his physical body is comparable to a second-tier Law Artifact, and he can blast the thunder talisman apart with a single punch.

And with undiminished momentum, they continued to charge forward. The cultivator surnamed Xun was merely a rogue cultivator at the ninth level of Rogue Cultivator.

He couldn't even withstand a single punch.

"Four more!" After killing his opponent, Ye Qingwen took out another spirit disc.

Five spiritual figures were marked on this spirit compass, but only four are visible now.

The Jade Slip that Ye Jingfu gave him contained not only the cultivator's information but also the cultivator's address.

A mortal city, a city of dazzling lights and bustling activity.

In the Yanque Tower, a middle-aged man in a brocade robe was surrounded by women, kissing and cuddling them, with laughter and chatter filling the air.

In front of him were three scantily clad, bashful women dancing.

"Master Chu, you can't do this here, it's so embarrassing!"

"Master Chu, stop right now!"

"Bang bang bang!"

However, at that very moment, an untimely knock sounded on the door.

"Who is it?" The man surnamed Chu immediately became furious.

"Xu Fuyuan?" The door opened quickly, revealing a young man.

"What Xu Fuyuan? You've got the wrong person! I am Master Chu Yuan of Auspicious Origin City!" the middle-aged man shouted angrily.

Before he could continue his excuses, the man in front of him took out a silver needle.

"Since you can't remember, then let me help you memorize it!" Ye Qingwen, and the silver needles flew out instantly.

Xu Fuyuan's body suddenly shrank, like a cicada shedding its shell, leaving only a skin; his true body had already left the pavilion.

It flew away into the distance.

Ye Qingyan, without any haste, left the restaurant and chased after him.

But Xu Fuyuan was only at the ninth level of Qi Refining, how could he be a match for Ye Qingyan? Before long, his head was pierced by silver needles.

Taihang Marketplace, a plaza for Rogue Cultivator and street vendors.

A monk pulled his hat brim low, but at his stall, he was only selling a bottle of elixirs.

He was completely out of place among the other stall owners.

However, no one dared to say anything to him.

Because this person is Chen Yuanqing, who broke through to the Foundation Establishment on his own in recent years.

Of course, he was also the main figure who spread rumors about the Ye Family some time ago.

However, unlike everyone else, they escaped from Taihang Marketplace.

He's different. He stays in this street market square, sets up his stall for a few days, and then rents a few rooms to stay in for a few more days.

As long as he didn't leave the market, he believed the Ye Family couldn't do anything to him.

After all, violence is forbidden in the marketplace; this is a rule of the Taiyi Sect, and even the Ye Family and Jin Family cannot break it.

On this day, he still kept his eyes closed, but in front of him, a cultivator picked up his pill bottle.

After glancing at it twice, he then spoke:

"Is this a Profound Qi Pill?"

"It's a Profound Qi Pill, but I'm not selling it now!" Chen Yuanqing's face immediately showed fear when he saw that the person who came was Ye Jinghu from the Ye Family.

"Why not sell? Are there any merchants in this world who would rather not do business?" Ye Jinghu asked.

"I don't have enough pills myself, I need to cultivate myself!" Chen Yuanqing himself spread rumors because he bought spirit pills, how could he let Ye Jinghu buy them and then spread rumors about him?

But before he could even get up...

Suddenly, Ye Jinghu shouted:

"Qing'er!"

Chen Yuanqin was stunned for a moment, because just as he was walking, a Five Poison Bee into the sole of his foot and he stepped on it!

Even though he reacted quickly and didn't exert much force, the Five Poison Bee still exploded!

"Chen Yuanqing, you killed my Qing'er's spirit pet! If you don't pay me 100,000 Spirit Stone today, we'll talk outside the market!"

"This Qing'er spirit pet is the queen of the Seven Star Bee, with boundless potential!" Ye Jinghu grabbed Chen Yuanqin's sleeve.

Chen Yuanqing was about to break free and leave in a huff.

He was worried that the other party might use Spirit-Inquiring Talisman.

Naturally, I didn't want to stay any longer or say anything more.

However, with that flick of his sleeve, a Spirit Talisman appeared in his hand without him even noticing.

Startled, he quickly threw out Spirit Talisman, which turned out to be a lightning talisman. It landed on the ground and immediately blasted out a large number of lightning bolts. Fortunately, no one was next to Chen Yuanqing.

Otherwise, a large number of people might be injured!

"You, Chen Yuanqing, not only killed my spirit pet in the street, but you also attacked me in the street!"

"On behalf of the vassals of the Taiyi Sect, I hereby punish you!"

Ye Jinghu roared and unleashed a thunder sword strike!

"You're slandering me and framing me!" Chen Yuanqing said, his face full of humiliation.

He kept retreating, but he was only at the Foundation Establishment Early Stage, how could he be a match for Ye Jinghu, who was at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage?

In just two or three rounds, Chen Yuanqing was killed!

The group of Rogue Cultivator watching were all terrified.

They naturally understood the reason; it was simply that the Ye Family was settling scores later.

Adding to the fact that Chen Yuanqing was so stupid, yet dared to commit violence in the street!

Soon, countless cultivators arrived, but after understanding the cause and effect, Ye Jinghu also made a great contribution in protecting the market!

In just three days, most of the rogue Rogue Cultivator who had previously framed the Ye Family were executed around Taihang Marketplace.

This immediately put the entire Taihang Marketplace in a state of panic.

Each of them wished they could shut themselves away in a restaurant in Taihang Marketplace and remain there forever.

Since we don't see anyone, everything should be fine, right?

But when the situation in the market suddenly changed.

The Ye Family's three-story restaurant was bustling with activity at that moment.

Ye Jingteng, Taihao Master, and Tianzhen True Person all came.

After realizing there was no hope, Master Tianzhen still took the Cloud Lion Demon King left to him by Tianfu True Person, breaking through to the Golden Core stage and becoming a False Core Cultivator.

Also present were the newly Illusion Peak True Person Ziyue, and Ye Qingshuang.

Ye Jingcheng also hosted a grand banquet, serving a total of sixteen kinds of spiritual dishes, plus three kinds of spiritual wine and three kinds of spiritual tea.

Among them, there is also a first-grade, top-quality Black Ganoderma Fish Spiritual Cuisine.

These Black Ganoderma Fish have the ability to advance, and they were advanced once again using Ye Jingcheng's first-tier Roc Fish Pill.

Although these Black Ganoderma Fish haven't reached the second tier, they are still top-grade first tier, a level higher than the original First-Tier Superior-Grade.

Most importantly, this advanced Black Ganoderma Fish has the potential to reach Tier 2, and even if it is cultivated, this variety cannot be maintained.

In other words, in the future, this type of Black Ganoderma Fish can only be supplied by the Ye Family.

"Is this the legendary Black Ganoderma Fish?" Ziyue asked with some curiosity.

Unlike Tianzhen True Person and Taihao Master, who knew a great deal about the Ye Family, Ye Qingshuang knew very little.

All I know is that the Ye Family started out with Spirit Beast beasts and is very skilled in spirit cuisine.

"Reporting to Senior, this is One Qi Black Ganoderma Fish, which is better than the ordinary Black Ganoderma Fish. It was also discovered by our Ye Family during an unexpected exploration of the secret realm!" Ye Jingcheng introduced, half-truthfully.

"Moreover, this Black Ganoderma Fish is very likely to break through to the second tier!"

"The Ye Family has truly had fortuitous opportunity this time!" Ziyue couldn't help but praise.

Even ordinary Black Ganoderma Fish is extremely fragrant and has an exceptional taste. Among all the spiritual dishes, few can compare in terms of deliciousness alone!

Now that it can be considered a second-tier spiritual dish, a single spiritual fish could be worth hundreds or even thousands!

"Senior Purple Moon, you can try it. Senior Brother Zhao, Senior Brother Cheng, please have a taste too!" Ye Jingcheng repeatedly invited the group to come forward and sample the food.

Without any hesitation, the group began to sample the food.

"The Ye Family's spiritual cuisine is getting better and better. When I was a guest at the Spirit Talisman Sect in the Jin Kingdom, I also tasted this Black Ganoderma Fish, but in terms of taste, it is still not as good as the Ye Family's!" Tianzhen True Person praised at this moment.

"Senior Brother Cheng, you flatter me!" Ye Jingcheng replied politely, offering the group another toast.

After a few rounds of drinks, everyone looked at Ye Jingcheng.

They knew very well that Ye Jingcheng had summoned them not just for a spiritual meal.

Moreover, Xuandao True Person did not come; it was Ziyue came.

This has already explained a lot.

"Senior Brother Cheng, Senior Purple Moon, the reason we invited you here is because our Ye Family and the Jia Family are engaged in trade, and we've had an inspiration to vigorously promote Black Ganoderma Fish!"

"And this second-tier Black Ganoderma Fish is the Ye Family's future main product!"

"However, the Ye Family's strength is insufficient to expand beyond the Zhao Kingdom, so the Ye Family is willing to contribute manpower and resources, but will use the sect's name to organize a merchant guild to sell this Black Ganoderma Fish."

"After this is done, the Ye Family will take 30% of the profits, and the sect will take 70%!" Ye Jingcheng declared.
