Chapter 99: Chapter 98: Return to the Clan"More than difficult..." Zhou Bingyi’s expression suddenly turned ugly as she recounted everything that had happened within the Jiang Family. Eventually, Zhou Bingyi snorted, "Now, our Emperor Immortal Sect has completely severed all ties with the Jiang Family of Huai South." The faces of everyone present changed. Especially Jiang Jing, whose complexion turned extremely pale. Sadness tinged her eyes. Her own father, to treat Youwei, Bingyi, and Ye Xuan like this? And her two brothers and sister, who treated her as an enemy! We’re all family, why has it come to this? "Could it be just because I married into the Emperor Immortal Sect?" Jiang Jing didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. "Wife, we should be happy about this," Zhou Zihuang said as he pulled Jiang Jing into his arms, speaking softly, "The Jiang Family’s first arrogant, Jiang Feng, even after taking elixirs, still couldn’t match Youwei, and our son-in-law even managed to produce a Top Grade Nine Transformation Spirit Pill. The ones who should be crying are them." After hearing Zhou Bingyi’s account, Zhou Zihuang felt that the actions of the Jiang Family of Huai South were excessive. And the actions of Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei were not wrong at all. In his opinion, they were even being merciful. Jiang Jing leaned in Zhou Zihuang’s arms, her eyes glistening with tears, but she did not speak. No matter what, Jiang Tiannan was still her father, but because the gift she brought was too ordinary, he chose to cut off relations with her, which was a significant blow for her. "Ye Xuan, where did you get that elixir from?" Mu Baicheng’s gaze landed on Ye Xuan, full of suspicion. A Top Grade Nine Transformation Spirit Pill, even in the entire Southern Domain, was an incredibly valuable existence, something beyond price, yet Ye Xuan had managed to bring it out as a congratulatory gift earlier. That was enough to leave people profoundly shaken. "I made it myself," Ye Xuan said nonchalantly. To him, these matters were but minor trifles, not worth elaborating on. "Made it yourself?!" Mu Baicheng’s eyes twitched as he stared at Ye Xuan, speaking sternly, "Ye Xuan, don’t think that just because you’re recognized by the Ancestral Master you can make such outrageous claims. Do you know that there are only a few people in the entire Southern Domain who can make that Top Grade Nine Transformation Spirit Pill, and each one of them is a world-renowned alchemy grandmaster. Are you saying that you’re on par with those few masters of alchemy?" Zhou Zihuang and Jiang Jing also looked at Ye Xuan with puzzled eyes. "If you don’t believe me, there’s nothing I can do," Ye Xuan said, leaning on Zhou Youwei’s shoulder, hands in his pockets, he yawned and told Zhou Youwei, "Wife, I’m going to sleep, wake me up when we get home." Ye Xuan wasn’t interested in discussing the matter further. Zhou Youwei trembled slightly, her cheeks flushed, and she transmitted a mosquitoe’s whisper, "Ye Xuan! Father and mother are still here!" "Oh." Ye Xuan responded indifferently, leaning on Zhou Youwei, his eyes gently closing. Sёarᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. He had yet to recover his Soul Power and wanted to sleep. Seeing this scene, Zhou Zihuang couldn’t help but curse with a laugh, "This kid." Jiang Jing, on the other hand, felt somewhat exasperated. "Humph, how could the Ancestral Master recognize such a person, really..." Mu Baicheng also sighed with a flick of his sleeves, feeling somewhat angry in his heart. Ye Xuan claimed he had made the Top Grade Nine Transformation Spirit Pill himself, but naturally, no one believed him, thinking it was just another of his tall tales. Mu Baicheng felt a headache coming on at the thought that the future of the Emperor Immortal Sect rested on such an individual. "Ahem." Just then, Wu Jingshan, standing nearby, gave two light coughs, drawing everyone’s attention to him. "What’s the matter, Elder Wu?" Zhou Zihuang looked at Wu Jingshan, asking with concern. Wu Jingshan, seeing everyone’s eyes on him, waved his hand to set up a Barrier, his expression became serious, "Actually, the gentleman was telling the truth." "What?" Everyone was puzzled and slow to react. "That Top Grade Nine Transformation Spirit Pill was indeed personally crafted by Mr. Ye, I was there that day as well," Wu Jingshan stated solemnly. "What?!" The crowd was shocked, looking towards Ye Xuan who had fallen into a deep sleep behind Zhou Youwei, their expressions changing. Even Zhou Youwei was startled. Was the Top Grade Nine Transformation Spirit Pill really concocted by Ye Xuan? Previously, she had thought Ye Xuan was joking. "Is this true?!" Mu Baicheng breathed rapidly, his gaze fixed on Wu Jingshan, his complexion turning a shade redder. In the midst of the nervous and anticipatory gazes, Wu Jingshan nodded solemnly and said, "It’s absolutely true. I was with Mr. Ye that day, and he was indeed concocting in the Alchemy Hall." This matter was of great importance, and Wu Jingshan had never mentioned it to anyone. But now, seeing that nobody believed in Ye Xuan, Wu Jingshan felt it was necessary to stand up for him. Wu Jingshan could tell that Ye Xuan didn’t care about these empty honors at all. But Wu Jingshan respected Ye Xuan greatly, and even if Ye Xuan didn’t care, he couldn’t afford not to care—he had to defend everything about Ye Xuan! "You actually didn’t tell us this!" Qiu Wenhan gave Wu Jingshan a sidelong glance and said somewhat annoyedly. Wu Jingshan gave a wry smile and responded, "After all, this matter is too shocking and unconventional. I’m not sure if it would be good to spread the word, so I was planning to ask Mr. Ye for his opinion once he returned to the Sect before revealing anything. But seeing that you all are wronging Mr. Ye, I had no choice but to speak out." "Good heavens, truly worthy of being the chosen one by our great ancestor, indeed the mainstay for the revival of our Emperor Immortal Sect!" Mu Baicheng exclaimed excitedly. "Grandpa Mu, didn’t you just question why the great ancestor would approve of someone like him?" Zhou Bingyi looked at Mu Baicheng with confusion. "Ahem!" Mu Baicheng was suddenly choked up and let out an embarrassed laugh, glared at Zhou Bingyi, and said, "Little Bingyi, you’re still young, you don’t understand. Grandpa Mu only said that because he was worried that Ye Xuan would become arrogant." Zhou Bingyi gave an "Oh" before questioning again, "Then, doesn’t what Grandpa Mu just said also risk making Ye Xuan arrogant? I know, Ye Xuan is really quite proud!" "Hahaha————" Zhou Zihuang burst out laughing. Qiu Wenhan and the others were also amused to laughter. Only Mu Baicheng had a dark expression, seemingly slipping into a somewhat withdrawn state after Zhou Bingyi’s comments. The originally somber atmosphere suddenly became much more jovial. Zhou Youwei, though silent from beginning to end, could feel the change in the atmosphere, and her heart warmed slightly. All these changes were because of Ye Xuan. There was a time when Ye Xuan was known throughout the Lie Tian Upper Country as a good-for-nothing and a foolish son-in-law, laughed at and scorned by everyone. The Emperor Immortal Sect considered his presence a disgrace and wanted nothing more than to kick Ye Xuan out of the Sect at all times. Jiang Jing, his mother-in-law, also wished to push Ye Xuan out of the Emperor Immortal Sect and find a satisfactory new suitor for her daughter. His sister-in-law, Zhou Bingyi, also thought she ended up with a useless man and often shed tears for Zhou Youwei. But now, Ye Xuan had become a pivotal figure capable of influencing the future pattern of the Emperor Immortal Sect. His mother-in-law Jiang Jing, his sister-in-law Zhou Bingyi, and many, many others had all changed their views of him. This transformation was visibly evident, yet it gave Zhou Youwei the feeling of being in a dream. The journey back was silent. The group hastened through the night to return to the Emperor Immortal Sect. It was only a two-hour journey from the Imperial City of the Lie Tian Upper Country to the Emperor Immortal Sect. By the time everyone arrived at the Emperor Immortal Sect, it was already late at night. "Tomorrow at noon, come to the Emperor Great Hall," Zhou Zihuang instructed everyone. "Yes, Sect Master!" The crowd accepted the order. "Youwei, you take Ye Xuan down to rest first, and call him over tomorrow as well," Zhou Zihuang said to Zhou Youwei. "Yes, Father," Zhou Youwei obliged and took Ye Xuan down to rest. Soon, only Zhou Zihuang and Jiang Jing were left in the hall. "You’ve had a hard time during this period," Zhou Zihuang said softly. Jiang Jing shook her head slightly and spoke in a low voice, "I didn’t do well enough, which led to the internal strife and the deaths of six Elders and two Supreme Elders." "They deserved to die," Zhou Zihuang stated calmly. The existence of the Emperor Immortal Sect was already difficult; those Elders only warmed their seats and thought only of internal power struggles, such people were a curse if kept alive. Zhou Zihuang felt no sorrow for their deaths. "Even so, their deaths have caused the overall strength of our Sect to slide," Jiang Jing’s eyes showed a trace of worry, "Ye Xuan has secured quite a few resources for the Emperor Immortal Sect from the Luotian Sacred Land, but if our Sect does not have the corresponding strength, I fear the forces around us will start having ideas about our Sect." The laws of this world are cruel, survival of the fittest. If they did not support themselves with strong power, the Cultivation resources they obtained would be taken by others! "The few old fellows I brought back this time are quite capable. They can serve as Tributors and guard our Sect. Additionally, there are several young people with exceptional potential," Zhou Zihuang mentioned. "Is that what tomorrow is about?" Jiang Jing inquired. "Hmm..." Zhou Zihuang pondered and said, "It’s just that those fellows also have their demands; we’ll talk more about it tomorrow."
