65: Ye Yaoru's gratitude, no upper limit on cultivation resources
“Alas, this is truly a hot potato.”
“However, for the Saintess to seek an audience with Old Ancestor, she likely wants to use Old Ancestor to escape the Joyful Union Sect or even the Scarlet Firmament Sea Palace.”
Ye Qingtian gave a bitter smile.
The Joyful Union Sect’s reputation was not good. Although it wasn't a place of pleasure like the Pleasure Sect, it was filled with exceptionally beautiful and outstanding female Disciples.
These female Disciples would receive the Joyful Union Sect’s full cultivation.
However, this Sect didn't Cultivate its Disciples to be stronger, but rather to be more beautiful, then sent them to the great figures of various forces to build connections and curry favor.
The Joyful Union Sect’s Saintess was the cream of the crop, with an otherworldly beauty that could even rival a Holy Land’s Saintess.
And this Joyful Union Sect’s Saintess likely didn't want to be a tool controlled by others, which was why she sought the Ye Family’s help to escape the fate of being treated as a plaything.
However, this would implicate the Ye Family.
Nevertheless, Ye Qingtian considered the Saintess’s Physique.
The Old Ancestor’s intended marriage partners must, at the very least, possess a God Body.
It was just that God Bodies were too rare; even the few he found were the most ordinary God Bodies.
While the Saintess’s Physique wasn't particularly powerful among God Bodies, this special Physique could assist others in Breakthrough.
It would be of great use to Old Ancestor.
Thinking of this, Ye Qingtian no longer hesitated.
After all, what could the Scarlet Firmament Sea Palace do?
He believed in Old Ancestor’s strength and judgment.
If the Joyful Union Sect’s Saintess truly became one of Old Ancestor’s wives or concubines in the future, the Ye Family would certainly not fear the Scarlet Firmament Sea Palace.
If Old Ancestor didn't accept her, then they would have even less to worry about the Scarlet Firmament Sea Palace’s threat.
With this thought, Ye Qingtian waved his hand at the subordinate, signaling him to bring the Saintess.

“Ye Yao Ru greets Old Ancestor!”
Inside the Ye Family Ancestral Hall.
Ye Xuan was seated in the main position, and Ye Yao Ru gracefully walked forward, bowing and kneeling before Ye Xuan.
“Not bad. You won first place in this Family competition. My cultivation and expectations for you were not in vain,” Ye Xuan slowly said, looking at Ye Yao Ru.
At this moment, Ye Xuan was surrounded by myriad Dao Rhythms, and with every move, the power of stars seemed to fall, like a divine being, inspiring not the slightest disrespect.
“Old Ancestor’s cultivation of Ye Yao Ru is something Yao Ru will never forget. In the future, I will certainly repay Old Ancestor’s great kindness.”
Ye Yao Ru did not rise but performed another kneeling bow to Ye Xuan.
Although Ye Yao Ru at this moment was like a goddess, proud and beautiful, she showed not the slightest disrespect towards Ye Xuan.
“Hmm, I promised you before that if you could win first place in the Family competition, I would allow your parents’ memorial tablets to enter the Ancestral Hall.”
“Now that you have succeeded, your parents’ memorial tablets will immediately be moved into the Ancestral Hall to receive incense offerings,” Ye Xuan slowly said, looking at Ye Yao Ru.
After his words fell, Ye Xuan waved his hand, and in an instant, the names and birth dates of Ye Yao Ru’s parents appeared on the two empty memorial tablet slots in the Ancestral Hall.
Ye Xuan knew this was Ye Yao Ru’s greatest wish.
Indeed, upon hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Ye Yao Ru immediately bowed again.
“Thank you, Old Ancestor!”
Ye Yao Ru looked at the two memorial tablets, and the heavy stone in her heart finally lifted.
With her wish fulfilled, she was so emotional that tears fell.
“Alright, since your wish has been fulfilled, you should focus on Cultivating well in the future. Your Physique is quite unique. Although it hasn’t been fully activated, your current cultivation speed already surpasses that of a top-tier God Body.”
“But you must remember, if you go out for training in the future and others ask about your Physique, you must never tell them the truth, otherwise, there will be great disaster, understand?” Ye Xuan said indifferently.
“Yes, Yao Ru understands.”
“Hmm, from now on, you will Cultivate by my side. If you have any questions about Cultivation, you can ask me, or you can ask Linglong.”
“Between us, because we share the same Bloodline, it’s not appropriate for me to take you as a Disciple. However, though there is no master-Disciple title, there is the reality of it. I have instructed Ye Qingtian and others that there will be no upper limit on your cultivation resources.”
Ye Xuan looked at Ye Yao Ru and added a few more words.
“Yes, thank you, Old Ancestor. Yao Ru will never forget your great kindness and will surely Cultivate diligently to repay it. If Yao Ru can ascend to the Great Dao in the future, I will certainly lead the entire Ye Family to the Peak Emperor Court.”
Ye Yao Ru was now completely devoted to Ye Xuan and the Ye Family.
“Hmm, go.”
Ye Xuan waved his hand, then left the Ancestral Hall and came to the Ye Family’s main hall.
“Old Ancestor, the Joyful Union Sect’s Saintess wishes to see you to discuss the matter of a marriage alliance.”
Ye Qingtian saw Ye Xuan approach and respectfully bowed.
“Besides that, over the past few years, I have successively found many Sect forces. Among them, some possess hidden God Bodies. One particular Sect has a condition they hope Old Ancestor can agree to.”
“That Sect is the Limitless Sect. The female Sect Master of the Limitless Sect has a Wind God Body. She wants us to destroy the Flowing Cloud Manor, which is also a top-tier force,” Ye Qingtian reported respectfully.
“Flowing Cloud Manor!”
Ye Changsheng sat at the head of the main hall, looking at Ye Qingtian with an extremely calm expression, signaling him to continue.
“It’s like this: the Limitless Sect and the Flowing Cloud Manor have a deep blood feud. The previous Sect Master of the Limitless Sect was killed by the Flowing Cloud Manor, and then they even massacred the Limitless Sect, almost destroying the entire Sect.”
Ye Qingtian recounted everything he knew.
To be honest, in Tiannán State, these matters were no longer secrets.
The Limitless Sect once came incredibly close to being a top-tier force. The previous Sect Master possessed astonishing Aptitude; although he was only a Profound Body, his strength and talent were rarely seen in the world.
With the previous Sect Master’s Aptitude, becoming a Saint was almost a matter of course.
It was just that the Flowing Cloud Manor feared that the Limitless Sect becoming a top-tier force would threaten its own position.
So, they set a trap, killed the Limitless Sect’s Sect Master, and later, to cover up their evil deeds, they tried to wipe out the entire Limitless Sect.
If it weren’t for someone intervening to help, and the Flowing Cloud Manor’s apprehension of that person’s strength, the Limitless Sect would likely have vanished.
But even so, the current Limitless Sect is merely barely surviving.
And the current female Sect Master is the youngest Disciple of the previous Sect Master. The previous generation’s Sect Master treated her like a father and teacher.
As for the Flowing Cloud Manor, it has grown and strengthened over the years and no longer fears the person who once lent a hand.
So, at this time, they intend to completely eradicate the roots.
Otherwise, once the God Body matures, it will bring them a lot of trouble.
