Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 609: Chapter 476: Twofold Speculation, Hidden Island Begins (Double Chapter)

Sure, here’s the translation:

In the Purple Wood Hall, shrouded in purple smoke, Ye Jingcheng and An Yuhuai welcomed Fairy Wu Xin and Chief Steward Xiao into the hall. They chose a side hall in the direction of the sandalwood smoke.

Ye Jingyu was entertaining Yun Baiyuan in the main hall, while they received guests from the Profound Sword Pavilion and Haoran Trading Association in the side hall, as had been planned.

Moreover, Chief Steward Xiao had proactively offered to discuss matters, making it even more necessary to separate.

The sect celebration is different from other ceremonies, primarily focusing on the word ’celebrate’ and then on distributing the gains. At present, Jade Wood Bay remains in the hands of the Purple Wood Sect.

This region can only be managed and transferred by the Purple Wood Sect.

After all, the Profound Sword Pavilion had not contributed a single soldier.

After this allocation, Chief Steward Xiao and Fairy Wu Xin looked at the main hall with an unusual gaze.

The Yun Family Patriarch was not dead, indicating that the Purple Wood Sect was a force divided from the Yun Family.

Now, with Sect Leader Zi and Yun Baiyuan entering the main hall together, what this represented was quite evident.

“Please take a seat. Before Uncle-Master Purple Wood went into seclusion, he had already declared that Junior Brother Tang can make decisions!” An Yuhuai responded to Chief Steward Xiao’s previous question.

Although he did not fully understand, this was what Ye Xuefan had told him. Even if it seemed unreliable, he could only let Ye Jingcheng be by his side.

He started speculating that Ye Jingcheng should have been accepted as a disciple by Zimu Ascendant long ago; otherwise, this would not be happening.

If so, he naturally needed to guide Ye Jingcheng better.

Saying this, he offered Spirit Tea, showing etiquette as a senior member of the sect.

“Elder An, you’re too kind. We actually came here this time after having agreed with Sect Leader Zi quite a while back!” Chief Steward Xiao glanced at Fairy Wu Xin, then spoke.

The meaning was clear; they wanted to talk with Ye Jingyu.

“The Sect Leader needs to report certain matters, and it’s not convenient now!” Ye Jingcheng interrupted directly.

Casual and unrestrained, without any concerns.

He seemed not yet adapted to being a Loose Cultivator.

“The main thing is the elimination of Yu Chu Sect, which involved the help of the Yun Family and requires some distribution. Chief Steward Xiao and Fairy Wu should understand!” An Yuhuai hurriedly explained.

He also glanced at Ye Jingcheng.

As if telling Ye Jingcheng not to speak recklessly.

For An Yuhuai, although he was not entirely certain, he speculated that his family should have had arrangements with the Yun Family long ago.

Otherwise, the Yun Family would host a banquet, the Purple Wood Sect would be fine, but the Yu Chu Sect would end up with Demon Cultivators, leaving the Purple Mansion dead.

In his view, Ye Jingcheng must have been informed of certain matters by Zimu Ascendant.

But now was not the time to speak so bluntly.

“Junior Brother Tang, that’s not the right way to say it.” An Yuhuai transmitted his voice to Ye Jingcheng.

“Indeed, it’s not convenient. I came here this time to purchase Spring Jade Ore from Chuyu Island!” Chief Steward Xiao nodded. In his view, their behavior certainly matched.

The annexation of Celestial Cloud Islands would benefit only two parties: either a formidable force like the Purple Wood Sect or the self-directed performance of the Yun Family.

Now it seems it was the self-directed performance by the Yun Family.

Having the Purple Wood Sect accept everything helped avoid criticism from the public.

After all, the rules of the forces within the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain and affiliated forces were always upheld.

Yu Chu Sect had previously paid tribute as well.

“This can certainly be addressed, but the quantity of Spring Jade shouldn’t be large, and the price must be discussed with the Sect Leader!” Ye Jingcheng responded.

Chief Steward Xiao’s suspicions solidified with this statement.

This was not about waiting for the Sect Leader to negotiate; it plainly awaited a word from the Yun Family.

Yu Chu Sect had fallen into the Yun Family’s hands.

The Purple Wood Sect was merely the caretaker.

Chief Steward Xiao and Fairy Wu Xin exchanged glances, understanding much in their hearts.

“And what about a smaller quantity?” Chief Steward Xiao continued probing.

At this point, An Yuhuai was quite anxious, yet unfamiliar with Chuyu Island.

Meanwhile, Tang Cheng seemed to be continually led astray by the other party.

This time, Ye Jingcheng hesitated but ultimately shook his head.

“We still need the Sect Leader; however, the previously agreed islands like Yuqing Island and Jade Cold Island in Jade Wood Bay could be gifted to Fairy Wu Xin, while for Haoran Trading Association, we’ll offer some premium Cloud Wood!” Ye Jingcheng handed over the prepared land title and the storage bracelets filled with Cloud Wood to both of them.

“Moreover, we’d also like to engage in business with you both!” After they had examined the land title and storage bracelets, Ye Jingcheng presented two jade talismans to them.

The materials inside were rare Spirit Medicines from the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain.

And they were also quite wealthy Spirit Medicines in the Eastern Domain Zhao Kingdom.

Ye Jingyu deliberately mistook Qinghe Sect for Medicine King Valley.

At this moment, everything naturally formed a loop at Ye Jingcheng’s side.

After this, the Profound Sword Pavilion will certainly cease speculating about the Ye Family’s insights.

Nor would they question whether the Ye Family belonged to some inland family.

As for investigating the Yun Family, let them investigate thoroughly!

Only then would the Yun Family’s Purple Mansion be more restrained.

At that time, the Ye Family could gradually insert themselves into the Purple Mansion.

Slaying too many Purple Mansions wasn’t the Ye Family’s intention!

“This medicine is quite scarce in the sea domain, but the friendship with Tang Daoist is acknowledged by the Profound Sword Pavilion. Coincidentally, the Profound Sword Pavilion has developed numerous Spirit Medicine islands abroad, and we are definitely engaging in this business!” Fairy Wu Xin also spoke.

Despite seemingly telling lies with open eyes, Ye Jingcheng cautiously took note of these formidable entities’ leaders.

“Since Fairy Wu is involved, our Haoran Trading Association will naturally follow suit, but we hope the Spring Jade price can be lowered!” Chief Steward Xiao also added.

Both parties clearly understood as negotiations reached completion. Ye Jingyu most likely wouldn’t finish discussions in several days or even half a month; their talks had nearly reached an end.
