Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 483: Chapter 410: Liu Huan of Hundred Flowers Valley, Hua Yu Sect Reappears (Two-in-One)

Having had the opportunity last time, naturally, Ye Jingcheng wanted to make the most of it.

In social interactions, the key is reciprocation.

Ordinary demon beast white foxes, even in their most beautiful phase, don’t last long; not all demon beasts have long lifespans.

The lifespan of a common white fox is only about twenty years.

Ye Jingcheng also sent a Sound Transmission Talisman flying.

What surprised him was that he received a response almost immediately.

Liu Huan invited Ye Jingcheng into the Hundred Flowers Valley, where indeed, flowers bloomed all around the valley.

Ye Jingcheng, however, noticed that although flowers were everywhere, most were ordinary, with only a dozen or so being Spirit Flowers.

The rest of the ordinary flowers seemed more like fillers.

“Fairy Liu, today I came to visit my clan brother, but unfortunately, he wasn’t here. As I happened to pass by Fairy’s Hundred Flowers Valley, renowned though unseen, I thought to repay the kindness from that day. I hope Fairy wouldn’t find it inconvenient,” Ye Jingcheng said, testing the waters, showing extra humility and courtesy.

Ye Jingcheng was quite young, so his manner wasn’t unexpected.

Liu Huan appeared unfazed as well, her eyes still as lovely as willow leaves.

But upon closer inspection, one could sense a distant coldness rejecting others.

To Ye Jingcheng, such rejection didn’t matter.

At this moment, he hoped more that the Ye Family would deepen its alliance with Illusion Peak.

Previously, the separation from Taiyi Sect had caused the family to be constrained everywhere.

Of course, he understood that the family’s situation was due to suspicions.

The family had hidden too many clansmen in the Taihang Mountain Range, and once involved deeply and discovered, the Ye Family’s centuries of patience would be destroyed instantly.

But now, Ye Jingcheng needn’t worry too much.

“I don’t mind. Recently I’ve felt stagnant in my cultivation. I’ve heard much of Ye Daoist’s extraordinary talents. How about exchanging insights on breakthroughs?” Liu Huan poured Ye Jingcheng a cup of Spirit Wine.

The wine was unique, laced with a hundred floral fragrances, seemingly refined from the Spirit Flowers outside.

Among the flowers, many tiny demon beasts like the white fox remained.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng nodded, longing for such exchanges as well.

After all, Liu Huan might understand breakthrough insights better than him.

He was too embarrassed to ask Supreme Taihao and Master Tianfu.

But here with Liu Huan, exchanging some insights was acceptable.

“Gathering Soul into Mansion, most crucial is the refinement of the Divine Soul. Ye Daoist’s Pill Enters the Purple Mansion and my Array Enters the Purple Mansion are both commendable…”

Liu Huan didn’t hold back, whether due to Master Tianfu’s instruction or something else, it was beneficial to Ye Jingcheng.

Naturally, Ye Jingcheng shared some of his own insights, especially some imaginative ideas about integrating the Five Elements Celestial Mansion, making Liu Huan listen, entranced.

After the exchange, it was already dusk, the horizon stretched extremely far.

Both gained much. Such exchanges focusing on insights rather than secret techniques did not violate sect or family rules.

The gentle breeze around swayed the Spirit Flowers in the Hundred Flowers Valley.

At the end, Ye Jingcheng took out a Spirit Beast Bag containing many Spirit Beasts.

It even held a fox demon with Polar Silver Fox blood.

This fox demon could advance once in Ye Jingcheng’s Treasure Book, and if resources were sufficient, breaking through to Tier Three wasn’t impossible.

“Fairy Liu, these are our Ye family’s latest batch of Spirit Beasts, I believe Illusion Peak recruited another batch of cultivators over the years.”

Upon seeing this, Liu Huan indeed showed a hint of joy in her eyes.

But she did not reach out.

Different from those Ascendants of Illusion Peak who truly supported the Ye family’s clans and business.

These female cultivators had some background and strength.

But ultimately, they were not beneficial to the Ye Family.

“Fairy Liu, if you find it challenging, could you assist Ye in exchanging for some Spirit Medicine?”

“Of course, I will purchase Spirit Stones at a market premium of twenty percent,” Ye Jingcheng offered.

Upon hearing this, Liu Huan hesitated.

But she did not refuse either.

After hesitating for a moment, she finally nodded, her gaze fixed on the token hanging at Ye Jingcheng’s waist.

“That’s possible, but not too much.”

“Naturally, do not worry, Fairy. Ye is not one to be excessively greedy.” Ye Jingcheng was overjoyed, handing Liu Huan the remaining main materials for the Tier Three Jade Qilin Pill.

Liu Huan, as Taiyi Sect’s core disciple, was gifted, with privileges surpassing Ye Jingteng.

This time he sent Ye Jingteng the Jade Soul Pill, hoping for Ye Jingteng to break through to the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment and elevate his privileges.

Yet now, with Liu Huan helping to exchange, he needn’t worry.

Their exchangeable privileges are entirely different.

Moreover, exchanging separately lowers Ye Jingcheng’s risk of exposure.

Regarding Spirit Stones, the more talented one is, the more they usually lack Spirit Stones. For instance, Ye Jingcheng himself gained significantly in the Desolate Secret Realm, but by the time he broke through to the Purple Mansion, most would be consumed.

Don’t underestimate Taiyi Sect; the sect’s internal competition is fiercely intense.

One can see this from the coverage of the Taichang Mountain Range by Taiyi Sect.

The Five Peaks are separated, with the stronger one’s peak, the larger its range, and the better the Spiritual Energy resources.

Liu Huan, being a disciple of Illusion Peak, naturally bears considerable pressure.

Even if the sect provides ample resources.

The sect’s initial intent is still to supply the high-level cultivators.

This leads to a disparity.

Importantly, he holds Master Tianfu’s token, clearly having just visited Master Tianfu…

When exiting the Hundred Flowers Valley, Ye Jingcheng still gained a bottle of Hundred Flowers Dew.

Though this Spirit Wine’s intensity was the mildest Ye Jingcheng had drank, its Spiritual Energy was exceptional, and fragrant aroma profound.

Occasionally as Spirit Honey Water, it was truly pleasant.

…

Taichang Market, Independent Cultivator Square.

As the auction approached, along with another Immortal Ascension Conference, the place was crowded.

Cultivators constantly set up stalls.

Ye Jing Hu focused on those selling Spirit Beast Cubs.

Though he already had four Thunder Rhinoceros Insects, after tasting their benefits, with two five-inch Beast Communication Patterns, he wouldn’t be truly content with only four Spirit Insects.

Currently, he’s most interested in Spirit Beast Cubs with the thunder attribute.

However, finding Spirit Beast Cubs, even at Taichang Market, wasn’t easy.

Ye Jinhao watched Ye Jing Hu dart about, feeling slightly helpless.

Yet he dared not admonish these young talents of the Ye Family.

He glanced again at Ye Jingting, who started setting up a stall nearby, then at the equally vanished Ye Jinghe.

He felt puzzled; under normal circumstances, the family elders should have alerted the three.

But now the three wandered leisurely as if merely out for fun, clearly unadvised.

Yet, considering the lack of Magical Combat among cultivators in Taichang Market, his anxious heart eased somewhat.

At the end of a street, Ye Jinghe followed a Spirit-Blocking Robe Cultivator to a corner.

“Found it yet?”

“Green Wheat Grass isn’t easily found, price can’t be lowered!” Ye Jinghe said angrily.

As if genuinely selling Green Wheat Grass.

“Green Wheat Grass, no matter how rare, hard to find, is merely a Tier One Spirit Grass, barely reaching Tier Two. If not found, the price will certainly be pressured!” The Spirit-Blocking Robe Cultivator continued in a low voice.

“Unless you find a mutated Tier Two Green Wheat Grass.”

“Tier Two Green Wheat Grass? I couldn’t wait for it, would’ve been discovered early.” Ye Jinghe snapped coldly.

The Spirit-Blocking Robe Cultivator didn’t reply.

Instead shaking his head, turning to leave the street, as if the deal fell through.

Ye Jinghe spread his hand, then clutched tightly, grasping the Green Wheat Grass fiercely, appearing extremely frustrated.

He then entered the market.

The Spirit-Blocking Robe Cultivator walked several streets, removed the robe, revealing a peaceful face, wiped his face, and his appearance altered once more.

He donned the Spirit-Blocking Robe again, disappearing at the street’s end.

Amid the shadow, Ye Xingyi was in shock, for he recognized that person.

Clearly, the Foundation Establishment Cultivator from Hua Yu Sect who went to Taihang Market to auction the Blood Heart Pill.

At present he dared not approach too closely, holding a mirror with a reflection of earlier events.

As for pursuit, he refrained, fearing to startle the serpent, needing to promptly inform Ye Jingcheng.
