Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 733: Chapter 541: Jing Yu Breaks Through, Five Spirits Transform (2-in-1 Monthly Ticket Request)

Lingyun Peak, the thick fog gradually receded, and the first rays of the red sun appeared.

Ye Jingcheng stepped out of the grotto heaven, his entire body bathed in the spiritual vein of Lingyun Peak, and he couldn’t help but feel invigorated. Clearly, over the past six months, the spiritual vein of Lingyun Peak had improved significantly.

He checked the array in his room, and there were no problems.

He also saw Chu Yanqing watering the apricot tree in the courtyard.

At this moment, Chu Yanqing’s cultivation was even more solid, clearly getting closer to breaking through the peak of Foundation Establishment.

The apricot tree had also become lush with spiritual light, each leaf shining like a star.

It was obvious that during this time, Chu Yanqing had not skimped on watering the spiritual apricot tree with spirit water, nurturing it with spiritual soil, and bestowing it with rain.

“Yanqing, there’s no need to be so attentive to this spirit tree!” Ye Jingcheng said to Chu Yanqing, smiling as he walked out.

The spiritual apricot tree is just a Tier One Middle Grade spirit tree; whether nurtured with care or not makes little difference, especially now that it’s atop a Tier Three Spiritual Vein, where the environment itself is excellent.

Yet, despite what he said, the tone of his voice was ultimately joyful.

In a room in the courtyard where he cultivated, he had set up an array. Although matters of space did not need to be kept from Chu Yanqing, if he were to be observed, it would imply that Chu Yanqing might still harbor some hidden thoughts.

And he had been in seclusion for another half year, yet Chu Yanqing hadn’t uttered a word of complaint nor asked any questions, and now she was smiling as she helped nurture a spirit tree with special significance to him.

“Brother Cheng, cultivation requires balance, lest we become too engrossed. That’s what you always said,” Chu Yanqing replied with a radiant smile.

Today, she wore the same blue dress she had worn the first time she met Ye Jingcheng.

Her ethereal demeanor was even more pronounced than on that day.

Standing in front of the apricot tree, she resembled an immortal of apricot blossoms who disregards worldly affairs.

“Haha, Yanqing is right. The development of our clan’s spirit fields at Xianyun Mountain is nearing completion. As the patriarch, I need to take a look. Want to come along?” Ye Jingcheng asked.

He actually knew why Chu Yanqing had often tended to the spiritual apricot tree during this period.

Half of it was for his sake.

The other half was probably because she wanted to return to Xianyun Mountain for a look, as she couldn’t settle her mind for cultivation.

After all, after their grand wedding, Ye Jingcheng had mentioned to Chu Yanqing the matter of the Wei Family ceding the mountain.

“Sure.” Chu Yanqing agreed without a second thought.

Yet at that very moment, Ye Jingcheng suddenly made a noise of surprise.

“Yanqing, we might have to wait a little longer.” Ye Jingcheng suddenly said.

Chu Yanqing followed his gaze and sensed an unusually distinct spiritual energy there.

The spiritual vein of the Ye Family had been completely upgraded to the Tier Three Middle Grade level.

At this moment, spiritual energy was surging like clouds, constantly swirling at the peak of Lingyun Peak.

And since Ye Jingcheng’s courtyard was now the closest to the mountain top, he could naturally observe the flow of spiritual energy.

…

Lingyun Peak, a tightly enclosed small courtyard, surrounded by four fields of spiritual plants.

Interestingly, the fields did not grow various spirit flowers and fruits but vast expanses of spirit grass.

These spirit grasses are all known for longevity.

However, as the sunlight beamed down, these spirit grasses grew wildly.

It seemed they had not been tended to for a long time.

A formation covered the spiritual fields, and at this moment, one could see countless spiritual energies following the formation towards the courtyard.

It seemed these spirit grasses also wanted to grow into the courtyard.

Outside the formation, Ye Jingyun, Ye Jingli, Ye Xinghan, Ye Xingqun, and Ye Xingshui were all present, observing the situation in the courtyard with some tension.

Because inside the formation, Ye Jingyu was in seclusion, attempting to break through to Foundation Establishment.

Especially Ye Xingshui, who had just gone through a heart demon tribulation.

Even though he had survived, he remained somewhat fearful of the heart demon tribulation.

And naturally, the most worried among them was Ye Xinghan.

Among the Ye Family members, Ye Xinghan was most concerned about Ye Jingcheng and Ye Jingyu. The former had become the patriarch, and the latter was right before him.

“I’ve already developed a spirit liquid to enhance the strength of wood demons. You must break through!” Ye Xinghan, having also experienced a heart demon tribulation, knew that the most challenging part for Ye Jingyu would be the heart demon tribulation.

At this moment, in the courtyard, her beautiful eyes were tightly shut, and she was frowning.

Spiritual light was limitless upon her.

Within her body, a spirit platform was continually being built.

And she was trapped in an illusion realm.

“You’re nothing but a waste. What right do you have to use the family’s spirit fruits and Foundation Establishment Pills!”

“Indeed, you have four spirit roots, and you’re not outstanding in communication with beasts. It clearly seems you’re exploiting friendships and wasting the family’s potential!”

…

Ye Jingyu stood beside the family’s Yunfu Tea Tree, feeling the taunts around her, and continuously shook her head.

She couldn’t bear to listen anymore.

It was because of what the clan members were saying that she was not good at anything.

Relying on Ye Jingcheng, she went to Taichang Market. With the relationship at Taichang Market and Ye Jingcheng’s help, she eventually communicated with beasts and, through a guess about spirit medicine, earned a chance for Foundation Establishment and life extension.

But was she truly important to the family?

At this moment, Ye Jingyu hesitated as well.

It wasn’t that she lacked confidence in herself but that she felt guilty towards the family.

Surrounding clan members seemed to become even more relentless due to her hesitation.

She could only step back until she was against the prickly branches of the Yunfu Tea Tree.

Feeling a stab of pain and coldness.

She realized then that she could retreat no further.

She felt as if she was back to her forties, when the family asked all clan members who would be willing to go to Taichang Market.

The surrounding silence was profound; nobody spoke up.

Only she did.

She also remembered countless days at Taichang Market, where she racked her brain just to ensure that those loose cultivators could purchase one more spirit pill.
