35: Chapter 35 Visiting Relatives

On the battlefield below.

"As expected of the number one person of the Lu Family's generation! Lu Shiyin."

A leading Black-robed Cultivator teased while attacking,

"However, how long can you hold out?

If you know what's good for you, hand over the goods and keep us brothers entertained, and perhaps we can spare your life!"

Lu Shiyin's face turned pale; she pursed her lips and remained silent.

Several other Black-robed Cultivators also roared with laughter.

Their Moves became even more lewd, specifically targeting Lu Shiyin's vital points and the thinner parts of her clothing.

Just as Lu Shiyin began to feel unable to hold on, and despair filled her heart.

"Hmm? What is that?"

A Black-robed Cultivator suddenly looked up at the golden shadow rapidly enlarging in the sky.

"Such, such a big eagle! It's a Yao Beast!"

"No! There's someone on top of it!"

"It's that brat from the Ye Family's mount! Why is he here?!"

The Black-robed Cultivators were suddenly thrown into a panic.

Ye Changge's reputation was now extremely resounding in this region.

A young Second-Rank Talisman Master who possessed a second-rank spiritual bird,

and had once forced back two Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Li Family head-on!

Xiao Jin had already swooped down to a low altitude, its wings whipping up violent currents of Qi.

Ye Changge didn't wait for Xiao Jin to steady itself; his figure flashed,

and like a ghost, he landed in the center of the battlefield.

"Where did these small fries come from, daring to touch the sister-in-law of I, Ye?"

"Ye, Ye Changge!"

The leading Black-robed Cultivator's expression changed drastically, but he forced himself to remain calm.

"This matter has nothing to do with your Ye Family! I advise you not to meddle in other people's business! Otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?"

Ye Changge sneered, too lazy to talk nonsense, and flicked his sleeve.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Dozens of Talismans flew out like butterflies weaving through flowers.

Instantly, they formed a simple "Five Elements Trapping and Killing Talisman Array"

completely enveloping all five Black-robed Cultivators!

The Talisman Array was activated, and the power of the Five Elements—Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth—rotated to shred them!

"Ah!"

"No!"

Screams rang out one after another.

These Late Stage of Qi Refining Black-robed death soldiers.

Had no power to fight back in front of Ye Changge's Talisman Array.

In an instant, four of them fell,

leaving only the leader, who had been intentionally spared.

Ye Changge stepped forward, preparing to interrogate him.

"Go to hell!"

A flash of ruthlessness flickered in the Black-robed leader's eyes.

Taking advantage of Ye Changge's proximity, he suddenly lunged.

In his view, Ye Changge was nothing but someone who relied on Talismans and spirit pets.

His own cultivation must be weak; at such close range, he would surely be able to kill him in one blow!

However.

The black light struck three feet in front of Ye Changge.

It was like hitting an invisible wall of Qi, as if the Yin and Yang energies were circulating.

It then dissipated without a trace.

"Ho, how is this possible..."

The Black-robed leader widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

"You... you are at Great Perfection of Qi Refining?! And your spiritual power is so pure and profound..."

Could it be... that the Ye Family has been hiding their strength all along?

This Ye Changge is not some "Talisman Genius" at all,

but a true cultivation prodigy?!

Before he could figure it out.

"Bang!"

A huge eagle claw descended from the sky, crushing him entirely into the ground.

"Oops, Xiao Jin!"

Ye Changge shook his head helplessly.

"I told you to leave him alive for questioning."

Xiao Jin let out a grievance-filled "screech" and lifted its claw.

Below, there was only a puddle of mangled flesh; how could there be anyone alive?

"Forget it, forget it, be careful next time."

Ye Changge rubbed Xiao Jin's feathers, not actually angry.

Lu Shiyin and Lu Shiqing, who were nearby, had both witnessed this scene with their own eyes.

Although Lu Shiqing knew her husband was powerful.

But seeing him suppress five Late Stage of Qi Refining Cultivators with just a wave of his hand,

and even preventing their attacks from getting near him, she still couldn't help but cover her small mouth,

her eyes shining with brilliance.

She felt even more proud in her heart; her husband was truly amazing!

Beside her, Lu Shiyin was even more inexplicably shocked.

She originally only knew that her brother-in-law had astonishing attainments in Talismans.

Yet she hadn't expected his own cultivation to be so unfathomable!

How old was he? It seemed... he was only twenty-four, right?

If she knew that Ye Changge had only started cultivating after turning eighteen.

And it had only been six years since then, she would likely be shocked to the point of her Dao Heart becoming unstable.

Lu Shiqing hurried to her sister's side and supported her.

"Sister, are you okay? Are your injuries serious?"

Lu Shiyin came back to her senses, suppressed the turbulent waves in her heart, and shook her head.

"Just superficial wounds, it's nothing serious."

She turned to Ye Changge and bowed respectfully,

"Many thanks for your life-saving grace, brother-in-law."

Ye Changge hurriedly waved his hand, looking serious.

"Sister Shiyin, you are too polite; we are Family, so there's no need for such formalities.

It's just a pity that I didn't get to ask who the mastermind was."

Lu Shiyin sighed softly.

"There's no need to ask. This matter must be the work of the Li Family."

"The Li Family?" Ye Changge raised an eyebrow slightly.

Lu Shiyin nodded.

"It's not just our Lu Family. In the past half year, the Li Family has been making frequent Moves, secretly attacking merchant caravans of several small neighboring families.

Although our families have joined forces to resist, the Li Family has three Foundation Establishment Cultivators, giving them the advantage in strength, and we have been in a passive position."

Ye Changge suddenly realized.

No wonder he had heard very little news about the Li Family at Biluo Lake in the past six months,

He had thought they had stopped their activities.

So they had set their sights on other surrounding families!

They intended to trim the wings first,

and finally concentrate their strength to deal with the hardest nut to crack, the Ye Family.

"A fine Li Family, they really refuse to give up."

A cold light flashed in Ye Changge's eyes, and he snorted coldly in his heart.

'Once I reach Foundation Establishment, I will definitely go to Longmai Mountain personally and make them change their surname to Ye!'

"Sister Shiyin, you are quite heavily injured; come up first, and I will take you back to Qingmao Mountain."

Ye Changge pointed at Xiao Jin.

Lu Shiyin looked at her damaged clothes and hesitated slightly.

Lu Shiqing took her hand.

"Sister, hurry up and come up; my husband's eagle is very big,

enough for both of us sisters to sit on."

Lu Shiyin no longer declined,

and with her sister's support, she boarded Xiao Jin's broad back.

Ye Changge intentionally placed Lu Shiqing in the middle,

while he sat at the very front to control the direction, showing he was avoiding suspicion.

However, during the flight, occasionally through the corner of his eye,

he caught a glimpse of the silhouettes of the pair of sisters whispering to each other behind him.

One cold and willful, the other gentle as water, both were peerless beauties of the world...

"Ahem."

He hurriedly withdrew his mind and silently recited the meditation chapter of the Jade Purity Beauty Cultivation Art.

Do not look at what is improper, do not look at what is improper...

This is my sister-in-law! Talk about it later, talk about it later...

Xiao Jin turned into a golden streak of light, carrying the three of them,

and sped toward the Lu Family at Qingmao Mountain.

Qingmao Mountain, Lu Family.

The current head of the Lu Family, Lu Yunshan, who had received the message,

who was Ye Changge's father-in-law.

Had long been waiting anxiously outside the mountain gate.

When he saw Xiao Jin's majestic figure descend from the sky,

and his two daughters safe and sound on the eagle's back,

he finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Father!"

Lu Shiqing jumped down while holding Ye Chen and ran over happily.

Lu Yunshan took his grandson, his old face blooming with a smile, and said repeatedly:

"Good, good! My dear grandson!"

But when he saw Ye Changge also supporting Lu Shiyin as she got off the mount.

Some vigilance rose in his heart.

Although he knew that his eldest daughter was devoted to the Dao,

cold and self-restrained, it was unlikely she would be moved by romantic feelings.

But he really couldn't rest easy regarding his son-in-law.

Although it was common for Cultivators to have many wives and concubines.

But Ye Changge's number of wives

was it not a bit too exaggerated?

He had to be on guard.

One of his precious daughters had already been married off.

This one must not have any more accidents.
