191: Chapter 191 Invincible Vajra Divine Skill

The words stuck in Ye Jiexin's throat were ultimately left unsaid. Ever since the last time most of the talisman blanks Ye Yisong crafted were of High Grade, Ye Jiexin had noticed something amiss; in the path of Talisman Making, Ye Yisong must have had some secret he did not know about.

Who among those who could Cultivate to the Martial Ancestor realm did not have a few Opportunities?

"Let's go, do not keep the Old Ancestor waiting for too long." Ye Jiexin quickly wrote out a list and handed it to Ye Yisong.

"Old man, don't push yourself so hard, pay attention to resting." Although Ye Yisong knew Ye Jiexin would not listen to him, he still could not help but nag a few times before leaving.

After the beast tide, Ye Jiexin had returned to the state he was in when he first became a Fourth-Rank Talisman Master, crafting Tier 4 Talismans day and night. As a Martial Artist at the Martial Ancestor realm who had just passed one hundred years of age, half of the hair on his head had already turned white. He looked twice as old as he had several months ago, and the weary posture of his body was something one could see at a glance.

"Got it." Ye Jiexin did not even lift his head, continuing to engrave the Thunder-Fire Talisman in his hand.

Ye Yisong sighed helplessly, put the list into his Storage Pouch, and hurried toward the Family Affairs Hall.

This trip to the East Sea Prefecture was a rare Opportunity. Although he possessed a hundred Tier 4 Talismans, Ye Yisong still felt it was not enough, so before leaving, he wanted to go to the Affairs Hall to find Ye Tuanbang to discuss an important matter.

"Yisong, how do you have time to come to this old man's place today?" Ye Tuanbang looked affectionate, guiding a five-year-old child beside him, who was Cultivating the Family's Body Refining Cultivation Technique, the Thirteen Tiger Forms, move by move.

"Grandpa Tuanbang, is this Uncle Zhu's child?" Ye Yisong asked.

"Mm, this old man is quite lonely guarding this place alone, so I brought him by my side to keep me company." Ye Tuanbang patted the little boy's head. "Go play over there for a while, I need to discuss something with your Thirteenth Brother."

"Yes, Grandpa." Ye Yishu nodded obediently and ran off by himself to the wooden horse to play.

"Speak, what is the matter for which you seek this old man?" Ye Tuanbang picked up the rag by the table to wipe his hands and looked at Ye Yisong with a smile. It was truly a case of 'no reason, no visit'; Ye Yisong had never sought him out alone before.

"Hehe." Ye Yisong rubbed his hands in embarrassment and stated the purpose of his visit. "I would like to borrow ten million Spirit Stones from the Family Affairs Hall. Three years from now, I will return twelve million Spirit Stones, including principal and interest."

"Pfft." Ye Tuanbang sprayed out all the tea he had just taken into his mouth. This father and son were more ruthless than the other. When Ye Jiesheng had just achieved his Breakthrough to the Martial Ancestor realm, he had also come to the Affairs Hall to borrow Spirit Stones. At first, he only borrowed a few hundred thousand Spirit Stones, and at most, he had only borrowed one million Spirit Stones. This kid asked for ten million right off the bat!

"Worthy of being Jiesheng's child."

"My father also came to borrow Spirit Stones?" Ye Yisong said in surprise. He had only known before that Ye Jiesheng would borrow from his uncles and brothers; he hadn't expected that he had even fleeced the Family.

"He borrowed, and more than once, but all of it added together was not as much as your one time." Ye Tuanbang said calmly.

"Uh!" Ye Yisong chuckled foolishly and lowered his demand. "Grandpa Tuanbang, if ten million won't work, five million will do, right? I will use my identity as a Fourth-Rank Talisman Master as collateral. I will definitely pay it back within three years, no, two years."

Borrowing money was just like buying things; one asks for a high price, and the other negotiates it down.

"Hehe, quite the ambitious appetite." Just as Ye Tuanbang was about to reduce the amount further, a dignified voice reached his ears: "Give it to him!"

"Wait!" Ye Tuanbang looked at Ye Yisong with complex eyes, walked alone into the Family treasury in the back, and took out a Storage Pouch to hand to Ye Yisong.

"Many thanks, Grandpa Tuanbang." Ye Yisong beamed as he took the Storage Pouch and probed it with his Divine Sense. Five million Spirit Stones were neatly stacked inside, not a single one more or less, almost occupying the entire space of this Storage Pouch.

After obtaining the Spirit Stones, Ye Yisong cupped his hands to bid farewell to Ye Tuanbang. As he passed by Ye Yishu, he gave him a Tier 4 Diamond Body Protection Talisman as a toy.

"You are thoughtful." Ye Tuanbang nodded slightly, expressing his thanks.

After leaving the Affairs Hall, Ye Yisong did not return to the small courtyard where he had lived. He had long since taken away the valuables inside, and the other things could be considered a gift for the next owner.

...

A ray of morning sunlight shone on Ye Yisong, dispelling the cold air from his body and making him feel warm.

"Hoo."

Ye Yisong let out a long breath, finished one grand circulation, stood up, and stretched. The crackling sounds of his joints echoed in the wilderness behind the mountain.

Last night, Ye Yisong had found a mountain peak with an excellent view in the back mountain and sat there for the whole night, taking the Opportunity to organize the Cultivation Technique he was practicing—the Green Lotus Sea Transformation Art.

"Come up." Ancestor Ye Rongming arrived beside Ye Yisong on a flying boat and called out softly.

"Yes, Old Ancestor." Seeing Ancestor Ye Rongming again, Ye Yisong still felt a bit reserved; this was not the first time he had experienced the prowess of a 5th Rank big shot.

"Sit tight," Ye Rongming said kindly, then started the flying boat and flew toward the East Sea Prefecture. "The trip to the East Sea Prefecture will take seven days; you can rest well in the cabin for a few days."

"No need, I can just sit here," Ye Yisong waved his hand quickly. He was no longer the workplace newbie from his past life who would spin the table when the boss picked up food or object when the boss was speaking. The Old Ancestor was working hard outside operating the flying boat; how could he possibly sleep if he went to sleep himself?

In his previous life, Ye Yisong was not a man of many words, and in this life, he was not either. The two sat cross-legged on the deck of the flying boat for a day and a night without either of them saying a word; the atmosphere was truly awkward.

"Old Ancestor." Ye Yisong decided to take the initiative to find a topic; he really could not sit still anymore, so he called out softly.

"Mm." Ancestor Ye Rongming opened his tightly closed eyes and responded calmly.

"That Indestructible Vajra Divine Art of yours is truly amazing! Even a 5th Rank Yao Beast is no match for you." Ye Yisong praised.

"Want to learn?" Ancestor Ye Rongming responded.

No, I..., I was just praising you for being amazing, not asking for your Cultivation Technique!

"Yes." Ye Yisong touched his nose and said shamelessly.

"If you want to learn, I will teach you!" Ancestor Ye Rongming took out a golden, radiant jade talisman and handed it to Ye Yisong.

"He's just teaching me like this? Just like that, he's teaching me? This is too hasty," Ye Yisong thought with immense surprise in his heart. He really had just been praising Ancestor Ye Rongming's Cultivation Technique; he had never imagined that the Old Ancestor would teach it to him.

Although the Family's passed-down Body Refining Cultivation Technique, the Thirteen Tiger Forms, only had four levels, as long as one was willing to spend Spirit Stones, one could easily buy the fifth level of the Cultivation Technique in the East Sea Prefecture. There was no need to worry about the problem of having no follow-up; it just could not be taught to outsiders.

"Many thanks, Old Ancestor." Ye Yisong took the jade talisman with both hands and said respectfully. Whatever, he would just borrow it first; once this Opportunity passed, it would be gone forever.

No wonder they say that having an elder in the Family is like having a treasure. In my opinion, having an elder in the Family is like having countless treasures!

"Remember, this Cultivation Technique must not be taught to others." Ancestor Ye Rongming gave a final instruction, then closed his eyes again and entered a state of Cultivation.
