Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

In the restaurant, the banquet invited all forces and cultivators above the Purple Mansion level.

However, the Purple Mansion cultivators were on the third floor of the restaurant, while the Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators were on the fourth floor celebrating.

The banquet did not prepare any exotic delicacies, just the regular spiritual cuisine of the Celestial Dust Tavern.

Even the spirit tea, used to entertain the Golden Core cultivators, was only Tier Three Spirit Tea, not the Longevity Tea or Mingxin Tea, which are Tier Four Spirit Teas.

These two types of Tier Four Spirit Tea have been consumed quite a bit by Ye Jingcheng recently, and a few days ago, he also gifted some to two Nascent Soul True Monarchs.

He himself doesn’t have much left to consume, so naturally, he cannot squander it freely. Previously, he was new here, but now he has gained quite a reputation in the Southern Wilderness Province.

Going forward, he plans only to use it when entertaining Nascent Soul cultivators and the two Mansion Masters.

Of course, even if the Ye Family’s preparations were ordinary, the group of Golden Core cultivators enjoyed their meals with relish, rarely speaking, and did not feel that there was anything bad about the spirit tea or cuisine.

At this moment, it seemed as if they were still immersed in the events of last night.

And Ye Jingcheng’s name undoubtedly weighed more heavily in their hearts.

Everyone was actually curious, curious whether the True Monarch of Heaven Demon and True Monarch Heiyu, the two Nascent Souls, were dead.

Just because the Xu Huai True Monarch and Liu Zhou State Governor did not speak, everyone refrained from asking.

If they were indeed killed, then it’s a usual question. But if they weren’t, wouldn’t that disrupt the face of the two True Monarchs?

That would definitely offend them.

The attendees would rather go back and find out using their own means than ask at this moment.

Of course, they also looked at Ye Jingcheng, their eyes full of hope, wondering if Ye Jingcheng would ask.

However, Ye Jingcheng was destined to disappoint them, as he continuously expressed words of thanks and praise, not once mentioning a single word about the death of the two demon cultivator True Monarchs.

Although there was a good chance they were killed, there was also a good chance they escaped.

The banquet didn’t last long before it neared its end. After all, having experienced a life-and-death magical combat, they still needed to consolidate and recover well.

Ye Jingcheng made an agreement with the remaining Golden Core cultivators to restart the night market at midnight before they all left.

As each departed, not only did they express gratitude to the Nascent Soul cultivators and greet the two Mansion Masters, but they all also saluted and bid farewell to Ye Jingcheng.

It should be noted that previously, these Golden Core cultivators were polite, but not nearly as cautious and reserved as they were now.

Even the two Golden Core cultivators of the Profound Puppet Sect looked thoughtful as they cupped their hands at Ye Jingcheng before leaving.

After everyone had dispersed, only five people remained in the venue.

”Aren’t you curious whether the two Nascent Souls of the Celestial Demon Sect are dead?” Xu Huai True Monarch watched Ye Jingcheng bidding farewell, seemingly ready to leave, and could not help but speak with a smile.

”Replying to Elder Xu Huai, this junior is indeed curious, but also understands that these matters belong to sect secrets, and once this junior is meant to know, this junior will naturally know.”

”This is not exactly a secret, the Heaven Demon has been subdued, while True Monarch Heiyu managed to escape in the end due to the speed given by the wings of the Taiyin Ancient Crow!”

”Nonetheless, even though True Monarch Heiyu escaped, he lost one wing and sustained serious injuries. It won’t be possible for him to fully recover in forty or fifty years, during which time the power of the Celestial Demon Sect will drastically shrink, so you need not worry about further revenge!” Xu Huai True Monarch said.

Hearing this, Ye Jingcheng’s eyes naturally lit up.

After all, with one Nascent Soul dead and another injured in the Celestial Demon Sect, not only should he not worry about an outbreak, but it’s also a great opportunity for him to take down the two Golden Cores of the Blood Spear Sect.

The information was apparently shared with him in hopes that he would attack the Blood Spear Sect at Blood Essence Valley while they were unprepared and destroy their stronghold.

To avenge past grievances.

After all, it was said that Ye Jingcheng went to the Earth Immortal Realm also at the behest of the Prince Wang.

”Thank you, both seniors.” Ye Jingcheng once again cupped his hands.

”No need for thanks, this was the sect’s plan all along, and they will naturally pay for their evil deeds in the Earth Immortal Realm, and this is just the beginning.”

”I see you’re looking to acquire this Bone Yin Qi, let it be my gift to you!” Xu Huai True Monarch said, taking out a jade bottle.

This jade bottle belonged to the True Monarch of Heaven Demon, and after his fall, his belongings naturally fell into the hands of Xu Huai True Monarch.

This Bone Yin Qi was precious to Ye Jingcheng, but not very rare for a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Besides, the Bone Yin Qi wasn’t exactly pure.

Purifying it would indeed be a considerable hassle.

”This...” Ye Jingcheng indeed wanted it but couldn’t think of anything to exchange at the moment.

Knowing fully well that one shouldn’t accept unearned benefits.

Besides, he was already indebted to Xu Huai True Monarch for the favor in this temporary market, if it wasn’t for the presence of these two Nascent Souls, Ye Jingcheng’s efforts here might have resulted in setbacks or even failures.

This incident also served as a wake-up call for him.

When the Nascent Souls here want to take action, they won’t hold back at all since the Profound Celestial Demon Sect and the Righteous Sect have always been at odds.

”It was through your Celestial Sand Sect’s temporary market that these gains were obtained, so consider it a fair share, there’s no need to be modest, we of the Righteous Sect are not like those demon cultivators, greedy and insatiable!” Xu Huai True Monarch spoke again.

After finishing, the Liu Zhou State Governor beside also spoke:

”Qianchen, lad, I’ve also taken your spirit tea, what do you need, and I, old man, shall provide it for you!” Saying this, Liu Zhou State Governor took out several treasures.

All of which were Tier Four treasures.

Among them were magical treasures, also spirit materials, and even remnants of the Taiyin Ancient Crow and Black Feather.

The remnants were evidently freshly severed, with blood still flowing with spiritual light, though well preserved.

This made Ye Jingcheng swallow back his words of intended refusal.

The essence blood of the Taiyin Ancient Crow can not only be used to refine Advancement Pills for Ye Qingfeng’s Spirit Beast but also possibly become the key for the Black Flame Demon King to breakthrough.

To add another Demon Emperor for Ye Jingcheng.

Seeing Ye Jingcheng still hesitating, Xu Huai True Monarch added:

”Choose one, in the entire Southern Wilderness Province, there are only a few Gold Cores that can impress Daoist Liu. If you are willing, in the future, just offer Daoist Liu some Mingxin Tea.”

”Your Mingxin Tea is certainly beneficial for Sword Cultivators.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng finally nodded.

”Elder, then I’ll take some essence blood of the Black Crow!” Ye Jingcheng naturally dared not ask for the entire remnant limb of the Taiyin Ancient Crow; even obtaining some essence blood was already a significant gift.

But Liu Zhou State Governor waved his hand and gave Ye Jingcheng the entire nearly half a wing remnant.

”Take it all, don’t refuse. In the Immortal Realm, I have also benefited from your merits.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng finally accepted it, repeatedly bowing in gratitude.

After expressing his thanks, Ye Jingcheng withdrew.

The room once again fell into silence.

...

Back in his room, Ye Jingcheng activated the Array, lit a piece of Sandalwood, and took a long breath.

Facing two Nascent Soul cultivators naturally brought some pressure, especially Xu Huai True Monarch, who was probably top-tier among Nascent Souls.

Otherwise, not even the True Monarch of Heaven Demon could escape despite using all his means.

With one Nascent Soul dead and one injured, Ye Jingcheng could proceed with the plan to annihilate the Blood Spear Sect.

The Hundred Beasts Sect still needed an opportunity, but the opportunity for the Blood Spear Sect had already emerged.

After pondering for a while, Ye Jingcheng opened the Grotto Heaven.

The Dream-Devouring Worm flew onto Ye Jingcheng’s hand, and a wave of Black Fog enveloped him. Soon, Ye Jingcheng was shrouded in a dream.

...

The Dream-Devouring and Soul-Searching abilities of the Dream-Devouring Worm had become considerably more profound after its advancement.

Memories that used to take a day or even several days to uncover.

Today, in just one hour, Ye Jingcheng’s soul-searching was precise and swift.

Among the three Golden Core Demon Cultivators, two were from the Celestial Demon Sect, and only one was from the Dangquan Sect of Demon Pass Mansion.

This Dangquan Sect, like the Blood Spear Sect, was a vassal of the Celestial Demon Sect, intending to earn merit for the Celestial Demon Sect by joining in this venture.

After all, this time, the Celestial Demon Sect sent two Nascent Souls, making an incident seemingly impossible under usual circumstances.

What surprised Ye Jingcheng was that Master Silver Spear of the Blood Spear Sect was also present. However, the latter did not reveal himself and chose to decisively leave at the last moment, not participating in the siege.

This scene made Ye Jingcheng frown slightly, feeling a bit uneasy.

This Master Silver Spear was much harder to deal with than other demon cultivators, and he had once escaped from Ye Jingcheng’s grasp in the Earth Immortal Realm. This time, he fled once again.

If this hidden threat isn’t removed soon, the future development of the Ye Family might be unsettled.

Unfortunately, the cultivators of the Celestial Demon Sect also knew little about the Blood Spear Sect.

Ye Jingcheng could only soul-search for the layout and approximate Array names of the Blood Spear Sect, not knowing much else.

The only good news was that the Celestial Demon Sect had only two Nascent Souls, and there wouldn’t be any Nascent Soul combat power protecting Master Silver Spear at present.

Moreover, under normal circumstances, without an emergency, no Nascent Souls would station at Demon Pass Mansion.

Next, Ye Jingcheng sorted through the Treasures.

There were plenty of Spirit Stones and common Treasures, but few were useful to Ye Jingcheng. Initially, he had three Magical Treasures that were decent.

However, the Tier Four High Grade mirror got shattered and needed repairing. The remaining two Magical Treasures overlapped somewhat with his other Magical Treasures.

After organizing, Ye Jingcheng fed Spirit Pills to the various Spirit Beasts and exited the Grotto Heaven.

Unnoticed, dusk had already fallen, and the Market was quieter.

The appearance of the Demon Cultivator inevitably caused a decline in the Market’s popularity, coupled with it being the last day of the Temporary Market—cultivators had started to depart progressively.

Even by midnight, the Golden Core Night Market had only seventeen Golden Cores participating, a significant drop compared to nearly forty the night before.

Ye Jingcheng still took out his previous Treasures, but this time, he exchanged them for various Tier Four Support Medicine.

After a round of trading, Ye Jingcheng ended up with two Spirit Medicines, which was indeed a considerable gain.

And as the Temporary Market finally concluded, a large number of cultivators withdrew towards the outside. Of course, the Golden Core and even Nascent Soul members of Celestial Sand Sect, Zi Fu Sect, and the Duan Family did not relax.

The safety within dozens of miles around the Market also needed to be ensured, even Ye Jingcheng was among the patrolling team.

The harvest from the fifteen-day Temporary Market was beyond Ye Jingcheng’s expectations. Not to mention the Treasures exchanged, the Spirit Stone gains of the Ye Family alone exceeded five million.

This was after he kept substantial profits for himself, submitting them separately to Mansion Master Wang and Mansion Master Xiao; otherwise, the Ye Family’s earnings would have been even higher.

After all, without the two of them, things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly for the Ye Family.

He didn’t give anything to the two True Monarchs, not because Ye Jingcheng was negligent or thoughtless.

But with ordinary items like Spirit Stones, giving them to the two True Monarchs would have been mundane. It’s more reasonable to let the two Mansion Masters hand them over on his behalf.
