Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book - Chapter 875 - 614: One Night’s Time

Chapter 875: Chapter 614: One Night’s Time

The night is as cool as water, the gentle breeze caresses, and the sound of insects chirping echoes through the mountains and fields.

Under the apricot tree, the white Moonlight Stone emits a tranquil glow, also illuminating the hem of the cyan skirt.

Snap!

Snap!

The small iron knife carves on the wooden sword, producing a pleasant sound.

Before long, a delicate face turns around.

They also see a handsome face, just as it is pushing open the courtyard door.

This person is none other than Ye Jingcheng, who returned from the Assembly Hall.

“Didn’t disturb you, did I?” Ye Jingcheng smiles softly.

Chu Yanqing also smiles:

“Of course, you did. This wooden sword for your child might end up looking ugly. Be careful, he might poke you with it one day!”

Faced with Chu Yanqing’s words, Ye Jingcheng embraces Chu Yanqing.

Almost four years of cultivation also meant four years of separation.

The sword in the other’s hand appears somewhat rounded, not sharp, but is indeed suitable for a child.

It’s just that they didn’t conceive a descendant during that intense moment back then.

He understands that Chu Yanqing is hinting at him, expecting him.

It’s also a message to the family.

In fact, Ye Jingcheng has been advocating multiple offspring for over forty years, yet as Patriarch, he hasn’t had any. It’s clearly not convincing.

His second brother, Ye Jingyong, reportedly had another child, though only three years old now, not yet knowing if they have a Spirit Root.

Moreover, in Chu Yanqing’s beliefs, she retains her father’s ideology of hereditary leadership, wanting to birth a future Patriarch for Ye Family.

“Then let them come quickly!” Ye Jingcheng lifts Chu Yanqing, directly entering the house.

On such a beautiful night, behaving timidly would show he doesn’t understand amorous affairs.

…

In the auction hall of Taihang Market.

Currently, Jin Yuyang and Jiang Jinghe are sitting opposite each other, with a feast similar to the one that once hosted Ye Jingcheng on the table.

“Master Jiang, Jin believes we should be frank with Ye Family!” The one in the golden brocade robe is Jin Yurong.

If Ye Jingcheng were here, he could see their resemblance to Jin Yutang.

“Jin Daoist, I still find your proposal inappropriate. It involves Master Xuan Dao’s interests!” Jiang Jinghe refuses with visible reluctance.

Jiang Jinghe feels incredibly helpless at this moment.

Back when he was at Foundation Establishment, he wasn’t as helpless.

“Master Jiang, you should know that now Purple Peak is in command. Since Sect Leader’s Wife went into seclusion, many True Masters still have reservations, displeasing His Highness True Monarch!” Jin Yurong speaks.

These words increase Jiang Jinghe’s inner helplessness, but he still smiles superficially.

“Jin Daoist, my suggestion is to follow the usual rules, hold meetings and competitions, summoning Wei Family, Cyan Cloud Nunnery, and Chen Family together!”

“That will work!” Jin Yurong hesitates for a while before nodding, but he still asks:

“I’m just afraid Ye Family might refuse using Ye Jingcheng’s seclusion as an excuse!”

With these words, Jiang Jinghe is at a loss.

If Ye Family really uses Ye Jingcheng’s seclusion as a reason to delay, there’s truly nothing they can do.

Openly breaking rules would mean slapping Taiyi Sect Illusion Peak in the face.

But at this moment, a Sound Transmission Talisman flies in.

Jiang Jinghe’s gaze changes, and he speaks:

“Jin Daoist, good news, Ye Jingcheng has come out of seclusion and is preparing to reconvene Taihang Small Meeting to decide the future distribution of Taihang Market!”

“Which day?” Jin Yurong quickly smiles with joy.

“Set in five days!” Jiang Jinghe replies.

“A bit late, but it’s still okay. Let’s go with that!” Jin Yurong hesitates briefly before nodding.

He drinks the Spirit Tea in one go, eats a bite of Spiritual Cuisine, then gets up and walks towards the door.

Halfway through, he turns around:

“Master Jiang, I won’t hide from you, apart from Ancestor Chengyun, Uncle Xuan Hen has also broken through to Golden Core, this is our Jin Family’s confidence, Qing Liu Jin Family can readily transform from Purple Mansion Branch into Golden Core Branch!” Jin Chengrong concludes and departs.

Leaving Jiang Jinghe with a complex expression!

Though he holds Ye Jingcheng in high esteem, Ye Jingcheng operates only at the Purple Mansion Clan level, without joining Taiyi Sect, so he can’t rise to Taiyi Sect level.

But the problem now is, due to the breakthrough of True Monarch Zi Ming, even the dynamic among Five Peaks has changed within Taiyi Sect.

Jin Yurong represents the Golden Core Clan, more so the subordination of Purple Peak.

…

At Ye Family Tavern, Ye Jingfu is pacing continuously.

The tavern’s business is increasingly poor.

He feels some guilt for failing Ye Xinghe’s expectations; the other entrusted him with Ye Family’s tavern, Spirit Beast Shop, and Pill Pavilion in Taihang Market.

Moreover, the family even hosted an auction ten years ago.

Now, there are few cultivators at the door.

He knows that shadows of Jin Family and Jiang Jinghe lurk behind it all, yet he can’t find a solution.

His hair is somewhat gray at this moment, recalling Ye Xinghe’s words, strength is the path to trade.

At that time, he was confused. Now, he understands its essence.

At this moment, a Spiritual Light appears, grabbed by Ye Jingfu, it was a Sound Transmission Talisman.

Ye Jingfu’s expression changes instantly, and he quickly steps out.

Simultaneously, five figures enter from outside the Market.

The five are all wearing Ye Family Daoist Robes, arriving with the sunlight, making Ye Jingfu more excited.

These five are none other than Ye Jingcheng, Ye Jing Hu, Ye Jing Li, Ye Qingyan, and Ye Qingwen.

“Patriarch, Brother Liu…” Ye Jingfu speaks repeatedly.

“Jing Fu, these years have been tough!” Ye Jingcheng stares at Ye Jingfu’s white hair and beard, feeling some compassion.

Jin Family targeted Ye Family starting approximately ten years ago, at that time Ye Jingcheng hadn’t refined Purple Mansion Jade Liquid for Jiang Jinghe.

It was due to this reason that Ye Jingcheng was willing to help Jiang Jinghe.

But unexpectedly, Jiang Jinghe inclined towards Jin Family.

And Ye Family fell into a disadvantage again.

Once this disadvantage becomes a situation, it won’t just affect Taihang Market, Taichang Market will also feel the impact.

“Patriarch, it’s me who has let down the family’s expectations!” Ye Jingfu shakes his head.

Despite the objective reasons, as the one responsible for the family’s Taihang Market affairs, he does bear part of the blame.

“This matter isn’t much related to you. Recently, we should have a list of loose cultivators targeting Ye Family, as well as special Evil Cultivator and Tribulation Cultivator lists, right?” Ye Jingcheng asks.

Ye Jingfu nods repeatedly.

He takes out the list.

Ye Jingcheng accepts the list, barely glancing at it, directly handing it over to Ye Jing Hu, Ye Qingyan, and Ye Qingwen.

These people are exactly those who led against Ye Family over the years.

Ye Jingcheng’s first act upon coming to Taihang Market was dealing with these people.

Ye Family has endured for so many years; it’s time to exhibit some prestige again.

Simultaneously, it’s testing the combat power of the three.

The three take the list and promptly leave separately.

Only Ye Jingli hesitates to look at Ye Jingcheng:

“Jingcheng, is there no issue with this…”

“If there are issues, it means the family’s judgement is flawed. Brother Liu, is your judgement flawed?” Ye Jingcheng smiles slightly, looking at Ye Jingli.

Ye Jingli repeatedly shakes his head:

“Naturally, there can’t be a problem. I’m more optimistic about Jing Hu this time!”

“Let’s quietly wait!” Ye Jingcheng doesn’t say much more, then enters the tavern.

He doesn’t immediately transmit to Jiang Jinghe.

He enters the Market openly.

He’s giving Jiang Jinghe a chance to explain.

Of course, he only grants one night.

The twilight glow passes through Cyan Bamboo, leaving mottled bamboo shadows, pulling the shadows of Market buildings extremely long.

The sky grows increasingly dim, Ye Jingcheng glances at the pavilion corridor and closes the window.

Immediately, a Sound Transmission Talisman flies out.

It’s from Jiang Jinghe.

Ye Jingcheng’s expression doesn’t lighten; rather, it feels more complex.

After all, the smarter Jiang Jinghe is, the more he tries to play both sides, which complicates matters.

If Jiang Jinghe were straightforward, he’d be much easier to deal with.

After hesitating a bit, he returns a Sound Transmission Talisman.

Before long, a silhouette approaches from the distance, enters the tavern, and knocks on Ye Jingcheng’s door.

“Patriarch Ye, excuse my uninvited intrusion, for my impudence!”
