Cangling Immortal Clan

Chapter 25 The girl is pregnant

"We are not strong enough. If they are really interested, then we are indeed out of our league."

Ye Linyuan nodded, but then shook his head and said, "But I don't have any intention of marrying up to someone higher than me, why does he react so strongly?"

“Maybe there’s the answer in the letter.”

As Old Man Ye spoke, he looked at the letter in Ye Linyuan's hand.

Ye Linyuan did not answer, but thought of Shui Qingzhuo's words before leaving, and said thoughtfully: "It seems that Lin is about to digest the previous gains."

Upon hearing this, Old Man Ye immediately looked extremely solemn.

He was silent for a long time, and then he said, "Finish reading the letter first, and then consider this matter."

Ye Linyuan nodded and returned to the mansion. He first opened the wooden box and took a look, and found that there was a one-foot-long golden sword inside.

The sword glowed with a sharp light, and a line of sharp runes was engraved on it.

"A first-level, low-grade magical weapon, the Golden Spring Sword."

Ye Linyuan's brows moved slightly, and he looked at the flying sword with a hint of regret.

A low-grade magic weapon is worth one spirit stone, which is a very valuable item for most Qi-cultivating cultivators.

The Shui family sent this sword, obviously not wanting to have too much interaction with the Ye family, and wanted to repay Ye Linyuan for his guidance.

To be fair, Shui has done the most kindly thing by doing this, but this is not what Ye Linyuan wants.

"They don't want to interfere in the affairs between the Lin family and us."

Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart, and roughly understood the thoughts of the Shui clan.

After all, the Lin family is quite powerful, and it is very likely that a second late-stage Qi training cultivator will appear. The Shui family may not be willing to make enemies with them.

In this case, Shui repaid his favor with a low-grade magic weapon. If Ye Linyuan wanted to use the favor as a condition to let Shui intervene, Shui could just ignore it.

Thinking of this, Ye Linyuan put down the Jinquan Sword, then took out the letter and started to read it.

After taking out the letter, he found that it was sealed with a layer of sealing wax and stamped with a seal. There were four big words written on the envelope - Personally written by Lin Yuan.

"So cautious?"

Ye Linyuan couldn't help but hold his forehead. Shui Hanqing made the letter so mysterious, and yet he asked his own father to deliver it personally. No wonder Shui Qingzhuo had such a huge reaction.

After all, Ling Zhifu is of noble status, and Shui Hanqing is Shui family's treasure. His secret correspondence with outsiders would inevitably make Shui Qingzhuo think too much.

As Shui Hanqing's father, it would be strange for Shui Qingzhuo to be nice to him when he saw this letter that could not be opened.

Thinking this in his mind, Ye Linyuan opened the letter, then took out the letter inside and started to read it.

As a result, after just one glance, his eyes could not help but move slightly, and he saw a line of beautiful and elegant handwriting in the letter.

Ye Gongzi

I’m glad to hear from you. It’s like meeting you in person.

It has been several months since we parted from Qinghe Xianfang, and only now I know that you are from the Seven Islands of Xinghu.

Thanks to your guidance, Han Qing has recently mastered the art of spiritual rain and become a true spiritual plant husband. That's why I sent this letter here just to express my gratitude for your kindness.

Please forgive me if I am being rude.

Your kindness will be unforgettable in my life.

...If you have free time, can we exchange letters often?

I am dull and not as knowledgeable as you. If I could receive your guidance again, I would be very grateful.

Ye Linyuan put the letter away, and a few ripples appeared in his calm eyes.

The content of Shui Hanqing's letter seemed to be just expressing gratitude, but between the lines there was a hint of implicit intimacy.

Ye Linyuan lived for nearly eight hundred years in his previous life. He had seen all kinds of peerless beauties and understood the thoughts of different women.

Women value power, and young girls are more fond of love.

Those older female cultivators value power, strength, influence, status, and financial resources more.

Therefore, most of the older low-level female cultivators are often willing to be the companions of high-level cultivators, even if they are just concubines and maids of low status.

Even if such female cultivators could form Taoist companions, it was often difficult to completely open their hearts to them.

Of course, this does not count high-level female cultivators. Most female cultivators above the foundation-building stage have a firm heart in the Tao and want to find a Taoist partner who can support each other, but the other party's strength and status are also one of the key conditions they consider.

But girls are different. Their minds are purer and they are not so realistic and materialistic.

Shui Hanqing was only 28 years old, at the age of a young girl in love. When she met a man with such an outstanding temperament and appearance, it was inevitable that she would develop a preference for him, but she did not dare to express it directly.

Thinking of this, Ye Linyuan closed the letter but did not reply to Shui Hanqing.

He calmly took out the second page from the letter, but after reading it, his brows became solemn.

The second page of the letter talks about the current situation of the Lin family of Chixing Island. Shui Hanqing told them in the letter that the Lin family had sold the spiritual vein of Zilin Island recently, and was hiring an array master to set up a first-level mid-grade soul-locking array.

Shui Hanqing told Ye Linyuan to be careful.

Knowing this, Ye Linyuan immediately found Old Man Ye and handed the second page of the letter to him.

"After the Lin family obtained the spiritual vein, they did not purchase a large number of rare treasures, but instead used it to set up a first-level mid-grade soul-locking formation. It seems that the Lin family's immortal clan is very ambitious."

After reading the letter, Old Man Ye couldn't help but frowned slightly, revealing an extremely solemn expression.

Ye Linyuan also nodded, and then said calmly: "If all of them were replaced by breakthrough opportunities, the Lin family would be able to train at least one or two people in the late stage of Qi training."

"After setting up the Soul Locking Formation, it may not be possible for a person in the late stage of Qi training to appear in a short period of time, but in the future, people in the late stage of Qi training will appear continuously."

"The most important thing is that they can hide their own background in the future."

Old Man Ye also nodded. If he rented the earth veins in the outside world to break through the late stage of Qi training, then whether he succeeded or failed would be noticed by others.

However, since the breakthrough happened quietly in his own dojo, it was difficult for outsiders to detect whether the breakthrough was successful.

After all, the breakthrough to the late stage of Qi training would not make much noise, and if it were really hidden, the outside world should not be able to detect it.

Thinking of this, Old Man Ye asked carefully: "What do you mean, what should we do?"

"The Lin family is powerful. We have no chance of winning in a head-on confrontation. The most urgent task is to inform the other five families of this news."

Ye Linyuan pondered for a moment, then spoke thoughtfully.

Old Man Ye nodded. The current strength of the Ye family was still far from enough. Facing the increasingly powerful Lin family, they could only barely protect themselves by uniting with the five major families.

Moreover, the Ye family immortal clan should now lie dormant and need enough time to wait for Ye Linyuan's rise.

Thinking of this, Old Man Ye hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I will contact the five major families about this matter. You don't have to worry about it if you stay in the family."
