Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 345: Chapter 328: The Jin Family’s Ambition and Preparations for Subjugation (Double Chapter)

The cyan-colored cloud ship sped towards the endless sky, with the mountains and rivers beneath slipping away behind them.

On the deck of the Jin Family’s Spiritual Ship, there weren’t many cultivators at the moment. Most had returned inside the ship, leaving only Jin Yutang attending to Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xingliu.

Along with a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Jin Family who was controlling the ship’s rudder.

Jin Yutang picked up the teapot again, pouring another cup for both Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xingliu.

At this moment, the spirit tea was about to run out, with some tea leaves settling at the bottom.

Jin Yutang self-deprecated:

“Look at my carelessness, the tea’s almost gone, yet I didn’t know to change the pot.”

“Brother Jin, there’s no need to trouble yourself. My third uncle and I suddenly remembered we forgot a set of array formations,” Ye Jingcheng quickly spoke up.

He naturally understood the implication behind Jin Yutang’s words; the Jin Family was about to search for spiritual objects, and it wouldn’t be appropriate for them to follow.

Jin Yutang saw this and naturally appreciated Ye Jingcheng’s discernment, though he feigned confusion on the surface:

“Are you being serious, Ye Daoist?”

“There isn’t much time left below; we could go out together as well.” Jin Yutang expressed reluctance to part with them.

“Truly, although the array is unrefined, it was gifted by an elder, and I cannot discard it lightly!” Ye Jingcheng explained, a slight hint of difficulty on his face.

Of course, there was some silent disdain in his heart.

“Then I won’t hold you back, but I’m curious about the conflict between your Ye Family and the Kong Family. If there’s time, maybe we could have a discussion. We’re all noble families; it’s better to resolve conflicts than to exacerbate them!” Jin Yutang stood up, as if seeing them off.

But he still spoke:

“It’s just some problems regarding spirit medicines, no need for Brother Jin to worry.” Ye Jingcheng also spoke up.

Only then did Jin Yutang nod, gesturing with his hand to send them off.

Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xingliu also took out their Spiritual Ship, flying below.

Finally, they chose a slightly deviated direction to fly, although the height and speed of their ship were much inferior to the Jin Family’s Spiritual Ship.

This direction differed from the Jin Family’s route, but it also headed towards the teleportation area.

“Jingcheng, this Jin Yutang is truly greedy; he wants us to remember this favor!” As their ship moved far away, where even divine sense couldn’t detect the Jin Family’s ship, Ye Xingliu’s expression turned somber.

The hint from Jin Yutang later clearly suggested that they avoided disaster thanks to the Jin Family.

He wanted them to remember today’s favor.

As for the negotiations, it was just a joke.

The gaps between Golden Core Clans would only grow larger, not smaller.

Moreover, on the Spiritual Ship, they had already offered some treasures to Jin Yutang.

“Thank you for the guidance, Third Uncle. I have a sense of boundaries in my heart!” Ye Jingcheng nodded, aware of what Ye Xingliu was concerned about.

He feared that Jin Yutang might use Ye Jingcheng to manipulate the Ye Family.

After all, the Ye Family and the Jin Family were merely cooperative partners now, both affiliated clans of the Taiyi Sect.

Not as if the Ye Family was a subordinate clan of the Jin Family.

This greed exhibited by Jin Yutang couldn’t be because he was accustomed to greed within the noble families, or Jin Yutang wouldn’t have achieved such status in the Jin Family.

It was because the Jin Family knew that the Taihang Commandery families were currently empty, and the Taiyi Sect seemed powerless to control them. If they could control the Ye Family, they could seize more territory, possibly even exploiting the Taihang Mountain Range.

Ye Xingliu nodded once he understood Ye Jingcheng.

Ye Jingcheng was the predetermined next patriarch of the Ye Family, not far from truly taking over.

So aside from the big picture, Ye Xingliu would point out any potential issues for him.

After traveling for a long time, Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xingliu entered a valley and buried the jade talisman again.

At the same time, they set up a tier two lower grade Isolation Array.

After setting up the array, the two consumed Bone Transformation Pills, once again taking out the Profound Shadow Cyan Cloud Ship, flying around the mountain range.

If Ye Jingcheng guessed correctly, that Corpse Daoist definitely had another Corpse Refining Avatar, and perhaps that was his true body.

After all, back then the Mad Corpse Fiends used the Celestial Soul Technique, making it unrecognizable for the Ye Family.

At this moment, he might still be using the Celestial Soul Technique, deliberately sacrificing himself.

Subsequently, creating an opportunity to escape.

This was the only way it made sense.

Otherwise, a demon corpse cultivator making a move in the secret realm of the Taiyi Sect’s territory would be a dead-end.

Even if he managed to kill everyone completely, once he left, there would only be one outcome for him.

“I hope he hasn’t escaped during this time!” Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but speak.

He was worried that during the time they were absent, the other party might have already left.

“Don’t worry, this kind can only be truly dead; he won’t surface in the short term!” Ye Xingliu beside him was extremely confident.

Although in the Cultivation Realm, everyone shouted against demon cultivators, if you truly compared demon cultivators to righteous cultivators, often the demon cultivator would be the last standing.

Because they were accustomed to killing, seizing treasures was minor, soul refining and soul stealing were daily affairs, and they had a keen understanding of human nature.

“Third Uncle, the two from the Mo Family?” Ye Jingcheng asked as the distant mountains grew closer.

As they looped back around, naturally, they wouldn’t encounter the two from the Mo Family again.

There’s no way to handle matters of eliminating the roots completely.

One had to admit, the two from the Mo Family were lucky.

If not for the fact that the Kong Family had seven or eight Foundation Establishment cultivators, how could Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xingliu let the two from the Mo Family leave?

“It’s fine, keeping the Mo, Chen, and Xu Families is perfectly fine.” Ye Xingliu surprisingly shook his head.

If the Ye Family truly struck against all Taihang families under the beast tide, no family could survive.

The reason for the Mo Family’s demise was because they shouldn’t have had a Teleportation Array, and the reason for the Li Family’s demise was because the Li, Chen, and Xu Families went too far, forcing the Ye Family to make an example.
