Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 231: Chapter 230: True Master’s Inquiry

Cultivation World, accompanied by countless escape lights, the fog array outside gradually dispersed.

Many cultivators descended from the sky and then trekked up the mountain, Ye Jingcheng was no exception.

Along the way, the fragrance of flowers and tea already spread through the mountains, carried along by the spring breeze, wafting into the noses of several people.

The tinkling stream water cascaded down from the mountaintop, seemingly accompanied by the sound of breaking ice crystals.

Upon reaching Foundation Establishment, Ye Jingcheng’s six senses were far clearer than before.

He could even sense the entire Lingyun Peak’s revival.

There were quite a few clansmen on the road, they were returning from several commanderies underground, some cultivators were extremely joyful, while some clansmen showed a heavy expression.

Ye Jingcheng understood this, after all, many mortal towns were destroyed by demon beasts, with numerous mortal casualties.

However, Ye Jingcheng was also aware this was a necessary sacrifice, moreover, in those towns before Lingyun Peak, fewer mortals with the Ye surname resided.

Ye Jingcheng sighed afterward, sometimes the cultivation world is just so cruel.

For the Ye Family, they’ve accepted a higher starting point than ordinary clans, and likewise endured things that others did not.

The pace of several people was quick, soon reaching the Assembly Hall.

At this moment, the arrays in the Assembly Hall were prominently displayed, in a state of vigilance, there were a few cultivators guarding it.

“Eleventh Brother, inside they are receiving Master Xuan Dao and Master Miaofa,” a Jing generation clansman opened his mouth to say.

Ye Jingcheng nodded, then took out the jade talisman and transmitted it inside.

He proceeded to wait there.

“Jingcheng, come in!” Soon Ye Haicheng’s transmission sounded in his ear.

Ye Jingcheng quickly walked in.

This time the reception area was on the third floor of the Assembly Hall.

Due to the family rising up as a Purple Mansion Clan, the number of floors in the Assembly Hall increased to three, including the beast carvings above, which were richer.

This reception of the two True Masters was also on the third floor.

At this moment, the meeting room door was not closed, leaving a gap for one person.

Ye Jingcheng also walked through the gap, seeing inside the hall, seated on the main seats were two middle-aged cultivators with Daoist robes, looking solemn.

At a glance, one could feel an invisible pressure.

Seated next were Ye Haicheng, Ye Jingyu, and Ye Xingliu, while on the right side were Tianzhen Ascendant, Ming Yuan Ascendant, and Supreme Taihao.

“Jingcheng greets the two True Masters!” Ye Jingcheng immediately greeted without any reminders.

Ye Jingcheng had seen the True Masters of Taiyi Sect in the family’s portraits.

Therefore he was not unfamiliar, including Taiyi Sect’s Nascent Soul True Monarch, portraits were left in various families.

This was to prevent clan members from neglecting the True Masters or True Monarch.

“Very good, have a seat!” It was Master Xuan Dao who spoke, though unwilling to admit, as the True Master of Taiyi Illusion Peak, seated here, he naturally counted as half the host.

Ye Jingcheng also sat below Ye Jingyu, though he was full of questions, he did not open his mouth.

It was Master Miaofa who spoke first, he looked at Ye Haicheng, finally at Ye Xingliu, and then Ye Jingyu.

“This beast tide is extremely peculiar, I want to ask, do you know any situation?”

“Start with Jingcheng,” compared to Master Xuan Dao, Master Miaofa was more serious, his face longer, the deterrent and aura making everyone present breathless.

The most important thing is, Master Miaofa’s Taiyi Purple Peak was the backing of the Mo and Chu families.

Ye Jingcheng’s surface expression didn’t change much, but his heart was already full of considerations.

He knows, this time he cannot say a single wrong word, nor can he glance at Ye Xingliu.

He can’t even lie, Master Xuan Dao needn’t say more, at least belongs to Taiyi Illusion Peak, Master Miaofa might use the Spirit Inquiry Talisman, it’s quite possible.

“Reporting to Master, this beast tide is indeed strange, I’ve already searched several waves, found most demon beasts are from the outskirts of Taihang Mountain Range, not fitting the usual pattern, suspect the Demon King discovered some treasure and came out to snatch it, causing the beast tide incidentally!” Ye Jingcheng opened his mouth to say.

He was also fortunate at this moment, fortunately, the family plan hadn’t leaked much to him, truthfully he didn’t know how the family proceeded nowadays.

He even suspected the Demon King of Taihang Mountain Range might be the Ye Family’s Guardian Spirit Beast.

This thought scared him when it emerged.

If that’s the case, then the Ye Family is a Golden Core Clan.

It’s just, considering the Hidden Peak being so cautious, Ye Jingcheng didn’t think so.

“If that’s the case, I hope the True Masters can help reclaim justice, along the way, I’ve seen no less than ten towns destroyed, losing at least ten thousand clansmen!” Ye Jingcheng showed pain and continued.

Upon these words, other Ye Family members also showed pain altogether.

Master Miaofa did not respond, it was Master Xuan Dao who spoke:

“Hmm, hmm, aligns with our investigation, don’t worry, don’t be nervous, the two of us only came to investigate because of this great incident in Taihang Commandery, regarding the Mo Family, they also need an explanation!” Master Xuan Dao nodded and said.

Ye Jingcheng was inwardly scornful, if it really was just investigation, state it clearly at the beginning, after failing to elicit more responses, speak like this.

But he was also aware, even if the Ye Family belongs to Master Xuan Dao’s side, the latter before a True Master and an affiliate surely values a True Master’s attitude more.

While Master Miaofa didn’t say anything, indicating he found no evidence.

Estimating the Mo family apart from Mo Hongyuan who came to the Ye family, and a few clansmen in Taihang Market, others likely exterminated.

Trying to find other evidence, utterly impossible.

After all, a cultivator’s body is extremely appealing to demon beasts.

Estimating that the Mo family might not even find a whole body.

“Master’s words are heavy, cooperating with the investigation is our duty, our entire Ye family was cautious, finally becoming a Purple Mansion Clan, being suspected is nothing!” Ye Haicheng replied.

Master Xuan Dao also nodded to these words.

All people recognized this conclusion.

“By the way, Jingcheng’s alchemy skill is particularly outstanding, is there a master?” Xuan Dao Ascendant also opened his mouth.

Upon these words, the hall atmosphere changed again.

The question wasn’t about whether Ye Jingcheng had a master, but whether he’d join Taiyi Sect.

With the previous probing, refusing now would be slightly disrespectful to the True Master.

“Reporting to Master, Jingcheng is now a candidate for Patriarch of the Ye Family, currently has no master!” Ye Haicheng replied.

“That’s a pity, if you join Taiyi Sect, there’s a chance to become our peer, after all, among the Four Skills of Cultivation, alchemy most aids cultivation!” Master Xuan Dao revealed slight regret.

After chatting a few more times, the two True Masters, along with several Ascendants left.

Only then did Ye Jingcheng and others breathe a sigh of relief.
