The Purpose of This Trip

After welcoming the Purple Mansion Venerable, the Ye Family cultivators looked grim, while Li Mutian and Li Muhe from the Li Family looked extremely pleased.

They followed them towards Mo Clan Restaurant.

"You all go back to the shop first. Your uncle and I are going to go for a bit!" Ye Xingliu said to the other members of the Ye Family.

Then he took Ye Xinghe and followed.

"Fourth brother, why is the Li Family so happy? It makes me angry!" Back at the Ye Family shop, Ye Jingyong had been holding back his anger for a long time, and he couldn't help but speak up.

"The Taiyi Sect is also divided into five peaks: Taiyi Sword Peak, which specializes in Sword Cultivator; Taiyi Dharma Peak, which specializes in alchemy and weapon crafting; Taiyi Martial Peak, which specializes in Body Cultivator; Taiyi Illusion Peak, which specializes in Array cultivation; and Taiyi Purple Peak, which has True Lord among its members!"

"Our Ye Family is on good terms with Taiyi Illusion Peak, and my eldest brother has also joined Taiyi Illusion Peak!"

"The two Purple Mansion Venerables who came this time are from Taiyi Sword Peak and Taiyi Dharma Peak respectively!" Ye Jingyu explained with a frown.

Ye Jingcheng listened attentively. He didn't know much about the Taiyi Sect, but Ye Jingyu seemed to know a great deal about it.

Ye Jingyong didn't reply at this moment. Although Ye Jingyu didn't say it outright, he already understood.

The Li Family's backer is most likely Taiyi Dharma Peak.

After all, the Li Family also originated from alchemy.

However, the smug look on the Li Family was both infuriating and worrying.

Next, Ye Jingyong didn't ask any questions, but Ye Jingcheng did ask the Taiyi Sect a few questions.

His fourth brother was also very forthcoming, his tone remaining calm yet steady, much like his third uncle Ye Xingliu.

He would say what he could say, and he would subtly avoid talking about what he couldn't.

Ye Xingliu and Ye Xinghe returned from outside around 7:00 AM until 3:00 PM, when dusk was approaching.

Ye Xinghe's smile faded somewhat; though he still had it, it was clearly forced.

There was a hint of fatigue in his eyes.

Ye Xingliu couldn't discern anything amiss. He went straight to the innermost room of the shop and asked Ye Xinghong to bring some spiritual tea. The Clan Elders drank the tea and discussed the Ye Family's actions during the purge.

After they finished drinking, Ye Jingcheng finally learned that their attack on Jade Dragon Valley this time was a feint attack by affiliated Lineage.

The sect's cultivators focused their attack on the main valley entrance.

The affiliated Lineage entered through two secondary valley entrances, with the Li Family, the Ye Family Xu Family assigned to one valley entrance.

It's well known that the Li Family and the Ye Family are at odds, which is almost an open secret. The Xu Family had previously sabotaged the Ye Family in the Earth Fire Chamber, and later pressured the Ye Family regarding their Spirit Beasts.

It's not very easy to deal with either.

Fortunately, the Xu Family did not produce Purple Mansion cultivators this time, which was the only thing that could put their minds at ease.

The stars are bright and clear, and the moon shines in the sky.

Inside the inner courtyard, almost all the Jing and Xing generation cultivators of the Ye Family were gathered, with the Third Elder Ye Haiyi at the forefront, as he took out a Jade Slip.

As a spiritual technique was activated, a large map projection appeared on the Jade Slip.

Within the map projection, a vast valley surrounded by mountains can be clearly seen, filled with jungles and lakes.

Its size and scope are far greater than even the Ye Family's Soaring Cloud Peak.

"Jade Dragon Valley is the territory of the Purple Mansion Great Demon Jade Jade-Scaled Snake. There should be two Purple Mansion Great Demons, so we don't need to defend against them. However, there are also quite a few first and second-tier Spirit Beasts, mostly snakes and pythons, as well as many Azure Cloud Wolves among them!"

"The Lineage Promotion Association primarily focuses on detecting Spirit Beasts, with the aim of finding spirit medicine, various resources, and Spirit Beast Cubs!"

"Meanwhile, the advance force mainly consists of cannon fodder Spirit Beasts and Rogue Cultivators; no one is allowed to act without orders..."

Ye Haiyi began his narration slowly.

Ye Jingcheng listened attentively. His Lineage's understanding of Spirit Beasts was unmatched by other Lineage, and Lineage advantage was extremely obvious!

What pleased him most was that the Lineage's goal was not advancement, but rather the search for spirit medicine and resources.

After all, even if you can steal the credit, you shouldn't.

Above them are the Purple Mansion Lineage, but the Ye Family's treasure-hunting abilities are unmatched by any other Lineage.

Prioritizing resources would better suit the Ye Family's needs.

"Furthermore, if anything goes wrong, all the cultivators in the Lineage should disperse and flee to this one point!" As midnight approached, a gentle breeze blew by, and Ye Haiyi gave the last point.

Always plan for the worst!

If the sect's Purple Mansion is no match for the demon beast, or if the Demon Beast receives support from other powerful demons, the Ye Family will naturally be unable to put up a last-ditch resistance.

Ye Jingcheng also memorized all the maps. This time, he had another purpose for going to Jade Dragon Valley: to find the advanced spirit medicine for the Golden-Scaled Beast.

The Crimson Flame Fox gave him such a big surprise, so Ye Jingcheng naturally expected the Golden-Scaled Beast to have its bloodline purified as well.

If he had two Spirit Beasts with the potential to reach the Purple Mansion level, and they used the Beast-Link Mark to drag him along, then his chances of Foundation Establishment before the age of sixty would be infinitely greater!

"Alright, everyone go and get ready. This time, the sect will also be distributing some Spirit Talisman, magic Law Artifact, and spirit pills!" After Ye Haiyi finished speaking, he took out spirit pills and spirit Spirit Talisman and began to distribute them.

Ye Jingcheng received three Qi Recovery Pills, two Qi-Blood Pills, two fireball talismans, and one golden bell talisman!

None of them were of superior First-Tier Superior-Grade. Ye Jingcheng was somewhat puzzled by this, wondering if the sect had ulterior motives in gathering so many Alchemists.

Otherwise, no matter how possible, there would be more than just these. He didn't think that the Lineage was hiding them, since the Lineage valued its members and wouldn't be stingy with such a small amount.

He actually felt that the Taiyi Sect was using this purge to prepare for his legitimate war stockpiling.

After putting away the Spirit Talisman and pills, everyone returned to their rooms. No one cultivated that day; instead, they quietly rested and cultivated their spirits.

The next day, a ray of purple sunlight shone into the bamboo forest.

At the square Rogue Cultivators set up their stalls, the enormous three-story Spirit Boat reappeared, and all the cultivators filed in, including the Ye Family.

Once aboard the Spirit Boat, the feeling of awe was even greater than watching from below.

Ye Jingli was extremely excited. He kept looking at the Spirit Boat, showing interest in every single spirit board.

The enormous Spirit Boat was fully equipped, with the Ye Family housed in five rooms, and Foundation Establishment cultivators could even stay on the second floor.

This time, however, Ye Xingliu lived on the first floor with the Ye Family members, just like before.

However, the heads of the Li Family and Chu Families went straight to the second floor.

There were only two people living on the third floor: Master Luoyuan Qian He.

"Start!" As the hour of Chen (7-9 AM) passed and the hour of Si (9-11 AM) arrived, Steward Ling, who was in charge of miscellaneous affairs of the Taiyi Sect, announced the start of the cleanup operation.

In an instant, countless rays of light surged forth from the Spirit Boat, drawing countless rainbows on its surface. Accompanied by a thunderous roar, the Spirit Boat soared into the sky like a majestic eagle!

Heading towards the Taihang Mountain Range, bathed in the purple morning light!
