Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 738: Chapter 544: Nascent Soul Grand Wedding, Yong’an Pavilion (Double Chapter)

Naturally, one must come here to kneel; both in sentiment and rationale, it cannot be avoided.

Moreover, one must bow for three whole hours.

Fortunately, nothing happened, as Ye Jingcheng sincerely performed the rites and even took out Spirit Tea. This Spirit Tea was the Purple Fucha left by Supreme Tianzhen last time, a Tier Two Top-Grade Spiritual Tea—quite fitting for the occasion.

Supreme Tianzhen and Supreme Taihao stood solemnly without making any extra moves.

Master Xuan Dao did not appear either.

Even his Divine Sense on him was barely present.

As time passed, it became apparent that nobody truly noticed Master Tianfu anymore.

When Ye Jingcheng finished his worship and rose with a mournful expression,

Supreme Tianzhen finally spoke:

“Junior Brother Ye, Senior Brother is about to enter seclusion. The revenue from the Market and Restaurant should be handed over to Junior Brother Zhao from now on!”

“While Master was still alive, he wished for us to support each other. I hope you all don’t forget Master’s original intentions!” After adding these few words, Supreme Tianzhen also departed.

Now, Supreme Taihao still has quite a way to go before reaching the Golden Core. After glancing at Ye Jingcheng, he added a reminder:

“Junior Brother Ye, do try to avoid Taiqing Commandery recently, as it may still be unstable there. And in five years, it will be Ancestor Zi Ming’s grand wedding. The sect will not only hold an auction but also a trading fair by the Cyan Spirit Trading Association. At that time, you can prepare some treasures to participate. It’s said that even the Gold Condensing Pill will appear at the auction!” Supreme Taihao hinted, also implying it was time to depart.

Ye Jingcheng was more than eager for this, as the Taichang Mountain Range was inherently too dangerous for him.

This hanging heart is, after all, uncomfortable.

Of course, what Supreme Taihao mentioned about Taiqing Commandery being unstable likely means the cleansing is not yet complete.

After all, the discussions among the True Monarchs that day remain unknown to them.

But it’s conceivable that the Qinghe Sect surely desires territory.

And the Taiyi Sect is certainly intent on rooting out traitors.

Ye Jingcheng knew in his heart that the specifics of those negotiations back then would probably never be revealed in the future.

Upon hearing about the alliance between Sikong Ziming and the Zhao Kingdom, as well as the Nascent Soul wedding, Ye Jingcheng was quite attentive.

Not to mention the auction and trading fair, just the sermon by the Nascent Soul Cultivator was something Ye Jingcheng had no intention of missing.

He himself had hosted a grand wedding and delivered a sermon.

He naturally understood its significance.

Moreover, estimating the auction would reach the intensity of a Tier Five auction.

The appearance of the Gold Condensing Pill would be unsurprising.

Furthermore, if this were the case, Ye Jingcheng expected that by that time, Golden Cores and Nascent Souls from the Eastern Domain Countries would all gather.

Surely there would be a trading fair for Purple Mansion Cultivators as well.

Ye Jingcheng indeed needed to prepare, for such grand events are rarely encountered in a century, and missing them for lack of treasures to exchange would be a great pity!

As for the auction, he had plenty of Spirit Stones, so there was no concern, just the need to prepare another identity.

After all, Ye Jingcheng of the Ye Family shouldn’t have this many Spirit Stones.

“Senior Brother Zhao, this Storage Bag containing specialties is for Master Xuan Dao, and these two are for you and Senior Brother Cheng. The remaining two, one for Fairy Liu Huan and one for my elder brother.” After continuing to take out some Storage Bags and handing them to Supreme Taihao, Ye Jingcheng headed towards Taichang Market.

Leaving Supreme Taihao holding those Storage Bags, standing there, watching Ye Jingcheng’s departing figure and then the Spirit Tablet on the Spirit Platform.

Alternating his gaze between the two directions.

After a long while, he shook his head and sighed.

He still couldn’t make up his mind.

Precisely because he couldn’t make up his mind, it seemed all the more daunting.

Whether right or wrong, it’s not their place to meddle.

And as long as they don’t meddle, there is still goodwill on both sides.

He and Supreme Tianzhen would still occasionally offer Ye Jingcheng some guidance.

…

Ye Jingcheng did not visit Ye Jingteng, nor did he visit Fairy Liu Huan.

Now, he was truly unsuited for lingering too much in the Taichang Mountain Range.

Whether it be his Cultivation or the recent passing of Master Tianfu, both were quite sensitive matters.

He could only say that in Taichang Market, he should give proper hospitality when the time comes.

And at this moment, he was also digesting Supreme Taihao’s information, ensuring his participation in the grand wedding ceremony and auction in five years’ time.

This auction is already considered the highest level he could currently partake in.

Additionally, since it’s an alliance with the Zhao Kingdom, there would be a night market organized by the Cyan Spirit Trading Association.

That’s also a spectacle not to be missed.

Ye Jingcheng intended to attend without fail.

It’s just that he needed to carefully prepare the treasures and decide whose Cyan Spirit Order to use.

Although the Cyan Spirit Trading Association is a place for fencing stolen goods,

Ye Jingcheng was also aware that the Cyan Spirit Trading Association certainly schemes behind the scenes, and while others might not know who owns the Cyan Spirit Order, the Cyan Spirit Trading Association surely does.

Just like the last time at the Cyan Spirit Trading Association, Ye Jingcheng was escorted out by Chief Steward Qing.

Their side was clearly trying to be friendly with him.

During the visit of Ye Haifei and Ye Xingyu to the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain, the Cyan Spirit Trading Association also tracked them.

As time passed, Ye Jingcheng swiftly flew out of the Taichang Mountain Range and returned to One Leaf Pavilion at Taichang Market, where the layout had changed once again.

The Ye Clan’s Pill Pavilion took up less space, while the neighboring buildings grew larger, now adorned with red lanterns.

The lanterns were engraved with a large character for ’wine.’

A group of Mountain-devouring Rats also appeared in front of the restaurant, continuing to carry fruit plates, moving about in front of the restaurant.

Many Ye Family Members were also busily working inside.

The Ye Family had no plans to rent a new place and would continue to use the pavilion space left by the Chu Family.

After all, this pavilion was retained by the Ye Family in exchange for Spirit Stones.

It would be too unprofitable if used only for keeping Spirit Beasts.

For the Ye Family, this location is not particularly good, but not bad either.

It undoubtedly represents an opportunity.

Besides, a better location might invite jealousy.

After all, the Ye Family is neither a Golden Core Clan nor an old Purple Mansion Clan.

By that time, there would be no Tier Three Spirit Cuisine.

Since One Leaf Pavilion’s building had three layers, there was no need to change the floors—only the room distribution required adjustment.

And besides family members, Ye Jingcheng also noticed many Loose Cultivator guides rushing over.

Since the Ye Family’s One Leaf Pavilion had not been in business, their income had decreased slightly.

Now seeing the Ye Family return and even opening a restaurant, each was thrilled, knowing that Ye Jingcheng was still the registered disciple of Master Tianfu.

Though Master Tianfu had passed, Ye Jingcheng’s association with Taiyi Illusion Peak already surpassed many families.

Such a Ye Clan naturally gave others the sense of a Zhongxing clan.

Of course, now the Ye Clan’s guides didn’t need him to arrange; Jing Yun could handle it clearly.

However, with a glance, Ye Jingcheng noticed that the guides had already changed a lot.

He estimated that when news of the Nascent Soul Ancestor’s grand wedding spread, surely there would be even more Cultivators in Taichang Market.

Opening the restaurant now would surely be a strategic move.

Indeed, if Ye Jingcheng didn’t fear drawing too much attention, he would undoubtedly rent more shops.

That way, future financial returns would be even more substantial.

After ensuring there were no issues with the clan’s matters, Ye Jingcheng then headed towards Zhang Family’s Workshop.

In the future, the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain needed to trigger a Beast Tide, naturally intending to massively slay Demon Beasts, making the refinement of Five Elements Celestial Armor Puppets a priority.

The Ye Family had to find a reliable materials supplier.

Zhang Family’s Workshop, named Yong’an Pavilion, was named after Zhang Family’s Golden Core Daoist name, located in the northern part of the city, not far from the auction house.

It’s considered one of the best locations in the entire Market.

Currently, throughout Taiyi Sect’s Three Commanderies, only two and a half families hold such a location—the Jin Family counts as one, the Kong Family as a half.

After all, for so many years, the Kong Family has yet to produce a new Golden Core.

“Elder Ye, please come inside!” As soon as Ye Jingcheng appeared at Yong’an Pavilion, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator came out to greet him.

Clearly recognizing Ye Jingcheng, they had come out early to welcome him.

“Thank you, Daoist Zhang, for your courtesy. Is Brother Zhang present?” Ye Jingcheng politely inquired.

“My uncle is engaged in Artifact Refining. We ask for Elder to kindly wait a moment!” The Foundation Establishment member of the Zhang Family repeatedly responded.

Stationed at Taichang Market by the Zhang Family was Zhang Yujing, also a Purple Mansion Cultivator, and even more experienced than Zhang Yuhuai.

“No worries, I’ll take a look around first!” Ye Jingcheng casually waved it off and began inspecting the Magical Artifacts of the Zhang Family.
