Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 746: Chapter 548: Lingyun Surveillance, Insect Array Completed

Today in cultivation, she was not wearing her usual green dress, but rather a Daoist robe that belonged exclusively to Ye Family members.

At this moment, she looked even more spirited and remarkable.

Matched with her exquisite features, Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but admit that she looked good in anything.

“Wait till you pick the Spiritual Almonds!” Ye Jingcheng pointed to the apricot tree above.

Only to see Chu Yanqing smile upon hearing this, and she took out two baskets from her Storage Bag.

Each basket contained seventy to eighty Spiritual Almonds, precisely from the previous two years.

“I have waited for two years too, but ah, some people are surprisingly hard to wait for!” Chu Yanqing smiled mischievously, making Ye Jingcheng smile as well.

“Then I’ll wait next year too!”

“Wait the year after, and continue to wait the year after that.”

With these words, the two burst into laughter.

Simple words, at this moment, added a different kind of warmth.

Cultivators have long lifespans, but because of their longevity, sometimes they become numb to everything.

Having a soulmate to pick Spiritual Almonds with every year is indeed something worth cherishing.

“The Spiritual Almonds are just right.” Ye Jingcheng took a look and then began picking with Chu Yanqing.

Finally, a total of ninety-nine Spiritual Almonds fell into the basket, bringing joy to both of them once again.

Chu Yanqing picked one and used the Water Technique to clean it, then placed it into Ye Jingcheng’s mouth.

“Fourth Grandpa wouldn’t just want to see you pick them, but also see you eat them.” Chu Yanqing said with a joyful smile.

Ye Jingcheng nodded, took a bite, and indeed found it incomparably sweet, the Spirit Fragrance filled the air.

And there was a different taste in his heart, Ye Jingcheng did not speak, but also took a Spiritual Almond from the basket, cleaned it using Water Technique, and returned it to her mouth.

The two held the Spiritual Almonds together and started eating.

Moreover, from this moment, the distance between them unknowingly grew closer.

Cultivators often seem cold and unemotional, not unwilling, but worried, as the years can be too harsh.

Fortunately, both have commendable talent, Chu Yanqing with her Spirit Body, and Ye Jingcheng himself, over seventy in the Middle Stage of Purple Mansion, a rarity even in the Taiyi Sect.

“Work hard to break through, wait for you to pick Spiritual Almonds.” Ye Jingcheng took out a Jade Bottle containing Purple Mansion Jade Liquid.

Seeing this scene, Chu Yanqing felt both touched and slightly worried, intending to say something.

But Ye Jingcheng immediately interrupted:

“I’m still waiting for you to refine a Magical Treasure for me, don’t say words of refusal!” Ye Jingcheng said.

Chu Yanqing then nodded, and she stored the Jade Bottle away.

Afterward, she entered the courtyard.

Ye Jingcheng checked the Array throughout and set down a Spirit Gathering Array in the room, seeing the abundant Spiritual Energy flowing from the Spirit Vein, nodded satisfyingly and went out of the courtyard, heading towards the Clan Assembly Hall.

Currently, those mainly responsible for family affairs are Ye Jing Hu, and Ye Xingqun and Ye Xingshui assisting.

Upon arriving at the Assembly Hall, everyone greeted him consecutively.

Several people were discussing matters.

“Patriarch!” Ye Jing Hu spoke first, and now his expression showed less urgency, more calmness.

The agency over these two years evidently had achieved a good effect.

“Patriarch, the Thunder Roc has hatched, and now appears to be in the Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer stage!” Ye Jing Hu’s Thunder Roc was originally given by Ye Jingcheng, and he was supposed to contemplate at Hidden Valley, naturally delayed due to Ye Jingcheng’s seclusion and Ye Xingyi’s passing.

“Keep it up!” Ye Jingcheng nodded, not surprised by the Thunder Roc’s performance.

After all, the Thunder Roc was his gift.

He then took out several Advancement Pills; the Thunder Roc’s was a modified Spirit Pill based on Thunder Rhinoceros Pill, Ye Xingshui’s was a Tier Two Golden Tier Pill modified from Golden Falcon Advancement Pill, and for Ye Xingqun, since his Spirit Beast was the Red Moon Python, it was simpler—a Tier Two Advancement Pill for the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon sufficed.

Besides these Spirit Pills, Ye Jingcheng also distributed many Advancement Pills to these individuals.

Though these Advancement Pills were improved, not necessarily applicable, Ye Family always had the habit of testing with Dan Mo to ensure no issues before administering Advancement Pills and Vein-Protecting Pills.

However, even so, there remains a risk of the Spirit Beast falling.

Nevertheless, these risks were kept very low.

And Ye Family Members, apart from trusting Ye Jingcheng, each wanted to gamble on their prospects.

“Uncle Xingqun, Uncle Xingshui, you’ve worked hard these years!”

“Patriarch, such trivial matters don’t need mentioning, but these years the family has continually been surveilled, seemingly being targeted, yet the strength targeting us seems not very strong!” Ye Xingqun suddenly spoke.

He also took out a Jade Talisman, using the vision from a Black Wood Ant, clearly employing a Secret Technique to relay images via the Black Wood Ant.

A cultivator in a Spirit-Blocking Robe was constantly watching from this side.

The person held a Blood Bottle in his hand.

“Any movements, and how strong are they?” Ye Jingcheng asked.

“No movements, there are three of them, they investigate once every half month, and three rotate, yet do not approach Lingyun Peak within Baili, every time holding this Blood Bottle, seems like some Secret Technique.” Ye Xingqun explained.

“I have already reported to the family previously, but the family’s response was to wait!” Ye Xingqun said.

This statement surprised Ye Jingcheng.

Ye Xingqun reporting to the family meant reporting to Hidden Peak, Hidden Island.

Most likely, it’s from Ye Haicheng there.

But Ye Haicheng instructed the clan cultivator to continue waiting, and not act, making Ye Jingcheng ponder over it.
