116: Chapter 116 Required Experience

The yard was lush with vegetation, where a Corpse Person walked slowly.

Ye Jing looked at the unconscious but controllable Corpse Person and said seriously, "Xianglan, I'm not joking. If we can secure a Foundation Establishment Corpse Person as a puppet, our Ye Family will gain a major fighting force!"

Hearing this, Liu Xianglan naturally felt it made sense, but she had yet to even master controlling these Corpse Persons, and now she was expected to control a Foundation Establishment Corpse Person.

This...

Seeing his second daughter-in-law's nervous expression, Ye Jing suddenly burst out laughing. "Xianglan, you don't think I'm asking you to master a Foundation Establishment Corpse Person so soon, do you?"

Liu Xianglan gave a helpless, bitter smile. "Father, please stop teasing me. I can't even properly handle the ordinary Corpse Persons you brought me, let alone a Foundation Establishment Corpse Person.

Even without their intelligence, their Physical Body strength far exceeds that of ordinary people. If I'm not careful, there's a possibility of a backlash."

Ye Jing stopped laughing and looked at the stumbling Corpse Persons in the yard, speaking in a heavy voice.

"I naturally know your difficulties. You've been practicing for less than a few years, and being able to make these ordinary Corpse Persons follow orders is already very impressive. The reason I mentioned the Foundation Establishment Corpse Person was to give you a goal.

I also want to tell you that for your subsequent cultivation, the focus should be placed on this!"

Ye Jing saw his second daughter-in-law's talent and naturally wanted her to learn well, but ultimately, he wanted her to control that Foundation Establishment Stage Corpse Person.

If the Family encountered any trouble, they would at least have a fighting chance.

Currently, the most powerful person in the Family was Ye Tianhao. The talents of the other descendants were uneven, but they were all about to step onto the path of the Immortal Realm. Having just started, they were in urgent need of accumulating strength.

After seeing his Family members, Ye Jing made up his mind.

After finishing his conversation with his second daughter-in-law.

Ye Jing changed the subject. "Xianglan, go call Gui Yun here. I have something to say to both of you."

Seeing this, Liu Xianglan immediately went to call Wu Guiyun.

After a while.

The two daughters-in-law arrived.

The gentleness on Ye Jing's face vanished, replaced by a heavy seriousness.

He spoke of the thoughts in his heart.

A cold wind rose in the yard. Upon hearing his words, Wu Guiyun's face turned pale, and she swayed as if about to fall.

Liu Xianglan was also filled with fear, hurriedly supporting Wu Guiyun.

Wu Guiyun choked out, "Father, that is a Corpse Person nearly at the Foundation Establishment level. Even as a Corpse Person, its power is not something the children can contend with! Father, how about Xianglan and I go with you, and let the children stay home and guard?"

"You won't do." Ye Jing shook his head, his tone brook no argument.

This single sentence shut them down completely.

He paused and said sincerely, "I know that letting the children take risks hurts a parent's heart more than a knife's cut. But to gain a firm foothold, which generation didn't carve their way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood?

Haoer and Yaoer have talent and spirit. They will have to stand on their own sooner or later. This is their trial, and it is also the Ye Family's trial."

These words were blunt, and Ye Jing also felt pained. Letting two children who had just entered Qi Refining follow him to deal with a Foundation Establishment Corpse Person was indeed extremely dangerous.

The yard suddenly fell into silence for a long time.

Wu Guiyun took a deep breath, wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, and nodded. "Father, you and the children must return safely!"

With these words, Ye Jing knew that Wu Guiyun had agreed.

Looking at the worried gazes of his two daughters-in-law, Ye Jing felt very conflicted.

But thinking of the Corpse Person in the valley, Ye Jing steeled his heart. He immediately had them leave the yard and then called Ye Tianhao and Ye Tianyao over.

This day was different from before. The usually kind Ye Jing's eyes were full of seriousness, which made Ye Tianhao and Ye Tianyao involuntarily become serious as well.

Ye Jing told them about his encounter with the people from the Xuanyou Sect in the valley.

The people of the Xuanyou Sect had long set their sights on that Spiritual Vein. Their Foundation Establishment Old Ancestor wanted to occupy that Spiritual Vein and use an Evil Formation to refine his Demonic Weapon.

If they succeeded, the loss of the Spiritual Vein for the Ye Family would be secondary. More seriously, the entire Yan State would be completely refined by him. At that time, they would have to abandon their Family business and leave this place. To strengthen the Ye Family, they had to take the Spiritual Vein before them!

Hearing this, Ye Tianhao and Ye Tianyao were naturally unwilling to leave the Yan State. If they lost their home, the Ye Family would be no different from Loose Cultivators.

In the complex world of cultivation, with no place to live in peace, how could the Ye Family develop?

So they wanted to fight for it, take the Spiritual Vein, and dispel the Xuanyou Sect's idea of refining a Demonic Weapon through an Evil Formation.

"Grandfather! Tell us what to do! We will all listen to you!" Ye Tianhao said immediately.

Ye Tianyao also said, "Yes, Grandfather! The roots of our Ye Family are here. We absolutely cannot let the people of the Xuanyou Sect drive us away!"

There was a trace of reluctance in Ye Jing's eyes. This time they had to deal with a Corpse Person who had almost reached Foundation Establishment. If the Family's younger generation acted now, there was no guarantee that nothing would go wrong.

But for the development of the Ye Family, they had to take a gamble.

The Xuanyou Sect in that valley would not easily wait for them to gather strength. Since they could send out a Qi Refining Seventh Layer Cultivator, that Foundation Establishment Cultivator would not be far behind.

He had gone to great lengths to refine the Yan State and had even chosen that place as an Altar for refining his Demonic Weapon. He would likely arrive very soon.

The trace of reluctance in Ye Jing's heart was eventually suppressed by his determination for the Family's survival. He said solemnly, "In that case, get ready. We will set off in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!"

"So soon?!" Ye Tianhao and Ye Tianyao were shocked. Ye Jing wanted to leave immediately after speaking.

The two teenagers immediately felt the urgency of the matter and, without hesitation, ran to their rooms to prepare.

The time of an incense stick passed in a flash.

Ye Tianhao put the moon-breaking sword on his back, packed his Talismans and herbs, and quickly walked out of his room.

Ye Tianyao carried her sword, followed by Xiao Chi and some Spirit Sparrows, also carrying many Talismans and herbs in her hands.

The brother and sister looked at each other, both seeing determination in the other's eyes.

"Let's go." Having briefly packed, Ye Jing was concise. This time, he left the injured Hei Feng at home to let his old partner get some good rest.

At the courtyard gate, Wu Guiyun and Liu Xianglan watched the receding backs of the three, their fingernails already digging into their palms.

The three quickly stepped into the mountains, speeding toward the valley.

Ye Jing led the way, his figure agile, each step steady and powerful. A faint Spiritual Qi swirled around him, protecting the two juniors behind him.

Ye Tianhao clenched his fists. He deliberately slowed his pace to walk side-by-side with Ye Tianyao, whispering, "Sister, if we encounter that Corpse Person later, be careful and don't be impulsive!"

"I know, Brother!" Ye Tianyao nodded, but her heart was pounding.

Xiao Chi seemed to sense her nervousness and rubbed its furry head against her wrist, causing her tense expression to soften slightly.

When they arrived before the valley, Ye Jing told them to stop, then slowly walked to the valley's entrance to confirm if anyone was there.

He wandered inside for a long time, confirming that there was no one else except for that howling Corpse Person.

Only then did Ye Jing breathe a sigh of relief. He then called his grandchildren in and warned them to be cautious when entering the valley and not to be rashly aggressive.

Every time he took his two grandchildren into a cave, he would personally teach them some ways of survival.

He also hoped that when they went out on their own in the future, they would be mindful and not lose their lives through recklessness.
