Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

The vast Loose Cultivator Plaza was still bustling with cultivators coming and going.

Above, the scorching sun hung high, casting a multitude of dappled bamboo shadows across the plaza.

As the Mo and Xu families finally recruited enough cultivators, the other loose cultivators finally turned their attention to the remaining four families.

Among the four families, the Ye family and the Chen family, known for their talisman-making skills, were the most popular among the loose cultivators.

After all, one family specialized in spirit beasts, and the other specialized in crafting talismans.

Conversely, the Li family, skilled in alchemy, was the least favored.

The Li family's elixirs were unlikely to be used by loose cultivators, whereas the Ye and Chen families' spirit talismans and spirit beasts could play a significant role in the upcoming operation.

Ye Jingcheng was now busy recording the origins, cultivation levels, and specialties of the loose cultivators.

Most of these loose cultivators were at the fifth or sixth level of Qi training!

Those with lower strength were unlikely to participate in the operation, and those who had reached the late stage of Qi training had mostly joined the employ of the Xu and Mo families.

"Name, cultivation level, specialty?" Ye Jingcheng asked as usual.

"Yu Hao, sixth level of Qi training, specializes in body cultivation, thank you, Fellow Daoist Ye!" Just then, a slightly taller figure appeared, standing in front and blocking a large area of shade.

Ye Jingcheng also saw the scarred face of the person, who, despite his polite words, couldn't hide the sharpness in his eyes.

However, Ye Jingcheng felt a sense of familiarity.

This made him somewhat puzzled, knowing that he didn't move around the market much, so if he felt familiar, he must have encountered the person before.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, is there a problem?" A hint of impatience in the voice snapped Ye Jingcheng back to reality.

He instantly remembered that this was the cultivator who had sold him the Fallen Flame Grass four years ago.

Back then, the man was wearing a spirit-isolating robe, revealing only his eyes.

He had been extremely impatient, wanting to inquire about the Ye family's elixir situation.

"It's fine!" Ye Jingcheng calmly made a note on the register.

The stroke was not elegant, but it was firm and forceful.

Yu Hao nodded, took a sound transmission jade slip belonging to the Ye family, and disappeared into the plaza.

Ye Jingcheng continued to record, but this time, he also began to record the expressions of these loose cultivators.

He also occasionally glanced towards the Li family, whose front was not as crowded as the other three families, but still had a considerable number of cultivators.

Ye Jingcheng didn't look at Li Mutian's expression, knowing that he couldn't discern it; he only looked at Li Xiangcai's, whose face was filled with smugness.

Ye Jingcheng had a certain conclusion in his mind, and he took out a jade slip, placing it next to Ye Xinghe.

"Uncle, this is the list of the first ten!" Ye Jingcheng's expression remained unchanged.

However, his suspicions and records of certain loose cultivators were all contained within the jade slip.

Ye Xinghe glanced at Ye Jingcheng with slight surprise, then nodded:

"Not bad, the recruitment progress is good!" Unexpectedly, Ye Xinghe didn't react in any way.

Ye Jingcheng was now somewhat confused, but since Ye Xinghe was acting this way, he simply stopped thinking about it.

He knew that perhaps all four families would resort to such despicable means.

But he also knew that they were now working under the Taiyi Sect, and if the supervising superiors saw such conflicts, Ye Jingcheng didn't know what the consequences would be, but they certainly wouldn't be good.

Ye Jingcheng shook his head, clearing his thoughts, and continued to record, this time recording even more detailed information.

Ye Xinghe didn't take action, but that didn't mean he wouldn't keep a record.

In his opinion, in this world of cultivation where one treads on corpses, it was never wrong to make more preparations.

Soon, the Ye family's quota of thirty recruits was filled.

The Chen and Chu families also filled their quotas.

Ye Jingcheng and the other members of the Ye family quickly returned to the Ye family's shop.

Ye Xinghe still had a happy expression on his face, walking at the front, with Ye Jingcheng following behind, until they reached the Ye family's shop.

Ye Xinghe left Ye Jingcheng alone and led him towards the courtyard.

Ye Jingcheng nodded and continued to follow, knowing that Ye Xinghe might ask about the events of the day.

He had recorded everything, but when they reached the room, there was already someone sitting inside.

He was drinking tea, with an extraordinarily refined temperament, wearing a simple blue shirt, yet always giving people a feeling of looking up to a high mountain.

"Jingcheng is here?" Ye Xingliu spoke.

"Third Uncle!" Ye Jingcheng repeatedly bowed.

After Ye Jingcheng finished bowing, he noticed that Ye Xinghe was walking out of the room, a scene that surprised Ye Jingcheng even more.

"Sit down, have some tea, a first-grade alchemist in your twenties, our Ye family hasn't had one in a long time!" Ye Xingliu invited Ye Jingcheng to take a seat.

Ye Jingcheng was somewhat flattered, but he didn't refuse, cupping his hands and sitting down, but he felt somewhat unnatural sitting there.

Even with two lifetimes of experience, sitting face-to-face with an elder still made Ye Jingcheng feel this way.

"If you have anything you want to ask, you can ask!" Ye Xingliu poured a cup of spiritual tea for Ye Jingcheng.

He was no stranger to spiritual tea, having purchased a lot of it himself, but at the moment, the most important thing was Ye Xingliu's questions.

The other party's behavior made it difficult for him to understand.

However, this was the Ye family, and he also bore the Ye surname, so Ye Jingcheng felt much more at ease, and a sense of curiosity inexplicably arose in his heart:

"Third Uncle, my spiritual energy seems to be able to heal spirit beasts!" Ye Jingcheng didn't rush to ask, but instead threw out his own secret to exchange for the family's secrets.

If the family didn't want to answer, they could directly answer in the affirmative, without being abrupt.

"I know, so I didn't call you last time, because it wasn't needed!" Ye Xingliu nodded.

This answer completely cleared up Ye Jingcheng's doubts; the Turtle Ancestor from that day was indeed not dead.

The one that died should have been another one, and with the Ye family's style of doing things, it was impossible to be easily fooled.

However, the heated scene and clan competition of that day were still vivid in his mind, and Ye Jingcheng's admiration for the Ye family's elders was even greater.

"Third Uncle, then this time, the other families' informants..." Ye Jingcheng continued to ask.

"Just chickens and dogs, why should our Ye family value them?"

"You cultivate the Four Phases Heavenly Origin Scripture, and the spirit beast has the potential for the Violet Palace realm. Sometimes, you have to tolerate petty people!" Ye Xingliu took a sip of spiritual tea and slowly spoke.

Ye Jingcheng seemed to understand, but he knew that perhaps the Ye family had also placed many informants.

It was just that without the strength to overturn the table, all the calculations were being done behind the scenes.

Seeing that Ye Jingcheng didn't ask any more questions, Ye Xingliu also spoke to advise him:

"This time, during the Jade Dragon Valley trip, don't use the Crimson Flame Fox if you can avoid it, and remember, you must not use the Spirit Beast Tattoo. Finally, stay by my side!" Ye Xingliu continued to speak.

Hearing this, Ye Jingcheng nodded, knowing that the two-tailed Crimson Flame Fox would provoke many people.

And staying by Ye Xingliu's side, he guessed was to heal spirit beasts.

"In addition, your method is good, and the family has rewarded you with 500 contribution points this time!" Ye Xingliu added.

Ye Jingcheng immediately showed a happy expression.

His method was naturally the training method, and he hadn't expected to receive a reward of 500 contribution points!
