Wan Family Mansion, as Ye Jingcheng departed, Wan Hongchang’s gaze lingered on that departing figure for a long ti.
His eyes grew increasingly deep, resembling bright stars.
"Fifth Uncle, this stone is obviously extraordinary, why sell it to him?" A young man stepped out.
Looking at the elder with so puzzlent.
"Because of fear." Wan Hongchang’s answer left the young man montarily stunned.
"What, thinking Fifth Uncle is senile, fearing a young man?" Wan Hongchang finally stopped looking toward the door, turned around, and spoke with so emotion.
"This child’s disposition is terrifying, with great fortune and carrying a Spirit Body. Being valued by the Ye Family, surpassing Ye Jingyu, and being appointed as the next Patriarch, his potential is limitless!" Wan Hongchang was evidently very knowledgeable about Ye Jingcheng, recounting all the information about him as if it were a cherished treasure.
"Not to ntion anything else, just earlier, this child’s pleasing words and adaptability to situations are beyond what many elderly cultivators could achieve in a lifeti. How can we prevent others from obtaining the opportunities we cannot, especially when enmity for obstructing one’s path is unforgivable? Moreover, we of the Wan Family are not without gains this ti."
Wan Hongchang continued, then with a wave of his hand, the surrounding array banners fell, and a jade talisman descended.
The jade talisman began to evolve, distinctly recording Ye Jingcheng’s changes in expression and various thods of manipulating spirit insects earlier.
The young man initially saw nothing special, but then noticed Ye Jingcheng’s calm and ease in the face of those Five Poison Bees’ fall, and how a slight change in expression caused the bees to change their attack pattern.
Eventually, the Five Poison Bees even exhibited shadows of the Black-winged Scorpion.
It seed they were continuously learning and mastering the Black-winged Scorpion’s advancent thods.
Moreover, on closer inspection, there was a revelation. These Five Poison Bees acted not only in groups of ten but also in pairs, coordinating with each other.
"He’s training soldiers, and he’s learning!"
"His control is exceedingly strong!"
"He held back!" the young man exclaid, sowhat astonished.
The longer he spoke, the more powerless he felt.
"Though our Wan Family prides itself as a Spirit Beast Clan, compared to the Ye Family, there’s still a vast gap. This Ye Jingcheng doesn’t even specialize in spirit insects, yet he’s already far superior to . Imagine facing a true Spirit Binder of the Ye Family; we’d stand no chance." Wan Hongchang sighed slightly, as a Green Water Scorpion crawled onto his hand again.
He fixed his gaze on the scorpion’s stinger, striving to transmit divine sense, attempting to make the scorpion move its tail, as if conveying ssages among scorpions.
But after nurous attempts, the scorpion seed sowhat rigid, and even its normal attacks beca much slower.
Wan Hongchang sighed once more.
"Fifth Uncle, but you’re best at sword cultivation, how can this be compared?" The young man remained a bit defiant.
"The other’s specialty is alchemy, moreover, the opponent is younger than you and already at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishnt." Wan Hongchang paused for a mont, then spoke:
"You truly should work hard!"
"And this ti going to the Secret Realm in the Taihang Mountain Range, if encountered, the other party would still owe us a favor. Exchanging a peculiar stone, which even your great-grandfather couldn’t research, for techniques in manipulating spirit insects, plus half a favor and nurous Spirit Stones, is indeed worthwhile." After speaking, Wan Hongchang fell silent.
If the latter understood, he felt gratified; if not, there was nothing he could do.
However, based on Ye Jingcheng’s temperant, if encountered in the Secret Realm, sparing this nephew was very likely.
...
At Chu Ye Pavilion, before returning to the shop, Ye Jingcheng visited a few more stores, purchasing a Jade-Horned Horse that could advance once and a Red Lion.
This ti, since preparing to buy gifts for Ye Jingyun, Ye Jingyu, and Ye Xingyi, he also planned to purchase a spirit beast for Ye Jinghao.
By gifting ones with high potential, if they eventually communicated with beasts, they wouldn’t be left behind.
Besides, these spirit beasts were small finds for him, costing only two to three hundred Spirit Stones each.
Even the Advancent Pills required only minor modifications of the Jade Qilin Pill and Crimson Fla Pill.
Now that he was a Tier Two Alchemist, modifying spirit pills no longer needed any secrecy.
After all, he had already demonstrated his alchemy talents to the family.
Entering the shop, the scene differed from the morning when he left; nurous cultivators were inspecting spirit pills inside, with several loose cultivators observing even at the entrance.
Regular spirit pill buyers enjoyed the Spring Tea provided by the Ye Family in the shop.
Spotting Ye Jingcheng enter, the loose cultivator guests all greeted him with repeated salutations.
Both Elder Ye and Master Ye were called out, giving Ye Jingcheng a different feeling.
"Please continue viewing, and feel free to introduce more friends." Ye Jingcheng was happy to see such a scenario but didn’t linger on the first floor; instead, he ascended to the second floor via the stairs.
"If anyone wishes to view Tier Two spirit pills, there’s no need for capital verification. Cultivators with a Ye Family token may proceed upstairs to take a look."
Halfway up, Ye Jingcheng turned back and supplented.
This left many unfamiliar with the Ye Family token puzzled.
After all, most shops conducted capital verification or required sufficient strength.
This was also a way to demonstrate strength.
Ye Jingcheng didn’t bother explaining; the Ye Family token was indeed a Prohibition Order, obtained through a Heavenly Dao Oath.
Ye Jingyu and others would handle arrangents, freeing Ye Jingcheng from such worries.
His most crucial task now was to replace Ye Xingyi.
After all, the latter had been inspecting upstairs for quite so ti, and his delay was indeed inexcusable.
"Thirty-fifth Uncle, sorry to keep you waiting." Ye Jingcheng handed a Spirit Beast Bag to Ye Xingyi.
"You’ve worked hard these days, this is the spirit insect I bought for you. Seventh Sister and the others have them too. My Brother Liu always says I have a good eye; if the spirit beasts I buy grow well, it truly confirms my fortune and insight." Ye Jingcheng explained, prompting Ye Xingyi to accept the Spirit Beast Bag.
Looking at the two Green Water Scorpions inside, Ye Xingyi felt delighted.
"These are the Wan Family’s spirit insects?"
"Thirty-fifth Uncle truly loves insects, recognizing them at a glance." Ye Jingcheng smiled slightly.
These two Green Water Scorpions had growth potential even greater than his Five Poison Bees.
However, his Five Poison Bees had been trained for a long ti and had ford a certain scale, so he didn’t plan to replace them.
Moreover, these Green Water Scorpions needed to cultivate a next generation, suitable for Ye Xingyi when he broke through to Foundation Establishnt.
His appearance at the market seed to prompt many cultivators to start buying spirit pills.
"Thank you, Jingcheng. Deduct the Spirit Stones spent from my salary, if insufficient, I’ll add more." Ye Xingyi still refused to accept Ye Jingcheng’s gift with a shake of his head.
Ye Xingyi, being a Pill Master, and due to Ye Jingcheng frequently being in seclusion recently, had been refining Tier One Spirit Pills. His earnings of Spirit Stones over more than a year were significant.
With the Jin Family supplying spirit dicine to the Ye Family, as long as the spirit pills sold well, the gains for alchemists were substantial.
Even Ye Jingyu and Ye Jinghao, due to frequently managing the shop, made considerable Spirit Stones.
