91: Yinling Clan

"Fairy... Xiaoxue... what exactly is her situation?"

Ding Zhen looked at Ye Feiyan's unprecedentedly shocked expression, and his heart instantly sank to rock bottom!

It's over!

Even a Great Master of third-grade Alchemy shows such an expression!

Could it be... could Xiaoxue's illness truly be incurable?!

However, Ye Feiyan's next words struck him like lightning, leaving him stunned on the spot.

"Two days later."

Ye Feiyan slowly retracted her cold phoenix eyes, which were filled with endless complex emotions, and said indifferently.

"You, bring that 'jinxi flower' and come back here."

"At that time, I will personally take action to resolve the problem with her Physique."

"!!!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Ding Zhen was dumbfounded!

A second ago, he was suffering in Hell.

But this second, happiness came so suddenly!

"Fai-Fairy!"

He was about to kneel with a 'thump', his voice becoming incoherent from extreme excitement!

"You... your meaning is... Xiaoxue, she is saved?!"

"Mm."

Ye Feiyan nodded lightly in response.

"Thank you, Fairy! Thank you for your great kindness, Fairy!"

Ding Zhen was overjoyed, bowing repeatedly to Ye Feiyan!

He swore to the heavens that in two days, even if he had to risk his old life, he would deliver the 'jinxi flower' on time!

After speaking, he could no longer suppress the ecstasy in his heart, and pulling Ding Xiaoxue, he departed hastily, full of gratitude... Feiyan Pavilion once again returned to quiet.

Until the figures of the siblings completely disappeared at the end of the street.

Mysterious Ink's curious thoughts finally sounded in Ye Feiyan's mind.

"Girl, what's the situation?"

"What exactly is that little girl's background?"

Ye Feiyan turned around, the previous shock on her cold and beautiful face had long vanished.

In its place was an unprecedented... solemnity!

"Mysterious Ink."

She slowly opened her mouth, speaking word by word.

"That is not an illness."

"That is a special Physique that may not be seen even once in ten thousand years!"

"Yin Spirit Body!"

Yin Spirit Body?

A hint of confusion flashed in Mysterious Ink's majestic dragon pupils.

"What is the Yin Spirit Clan?"

"And what does it have to do with this little girl's special Physique?"

Ye Feiyan took a deep breath and began to recount a forbidden secret for Mysterious Ink, a secret that had long been submerged in the river of history, one that even she, as an Immortal Emperor in her previous life, had only occasionally glimpsed fragments of in the most ancient records!

"The Yin Spirit Clan is an alien race."

"A very strange and powerful race, existing outside the Major Thousand Worlds!"

"No one knows where they truly live."

"They only know that this race feeds on the Divine Souls of all races!"

"They can absorb the Divine Soul power of any living being in the world to increase their cultivation! Their methods are extremely cruel!"

Hiss—!

Hearing this, even with Mysterious Ink's already calm state of mind, he couldn't help but gasp!

Feeds on Divine Souls?!

This is simply too overbearing!

"As for the relationship between the Yin Spirit Body and the Yin Spirit Clan..."

Ye Feiyan's tone grew heavier.

"The Yin Spirit Clan appears once every ten thousand years."

"And each time they appear, for our myriad races, it is a catastrophe capable of sweeping across the entire Major Thousand Worlds!"

"Their appearance is not without warning."

"And that warning is..."

"The Yin Spirit Body!"

"Whenever someone with a 'Yin Spirit Body' appears in the world, it signifies that the Yin Spirit Clan is about to descend!"

Mysterious Ink suddenly understood upon hearing this.

"I see."

"This so-called Yin Spirit Body is perhaps equivalent to a 'medium'."

"A key that can open the passage between the world where the Yin Spirit Clan lives and our world!"

"Exactly." Ye Feiyan nodded, "I suspect the same."

"Then, isn't it simple?"

Mysterious Ink's puzzled thoughts came again.

"Just kill that little girl on the spot!"

"If the key is gone, wouldn't the so-called Yin Spirit Clan be unable to cross over?"

However, Ye Feiyan heard this and shook her head with a bitter smile.

"It's useless."

"Do you think our Human Race's ancient mighty figures haven't tried?"

"But the result was completely useless!"

"As long as the current Yin Spirit Body is eliminated, a new Yin Spirit Body will soon appear again in another corner of the world!"

"So, elimination simply cannot stop it."

"Then what do you plan to do?" Mysterious Ink pressed.

"Nothing."

Ye Feiyan's answer was crisp and decisive.

"The appearance of the Yin Spirit Clan is a great trend of heaven and earth, which cannot be stopped by one person's power."

"As for Ding Xiaoxue..."

A hint of understanding flashed in her cold phoenix eyes.

"Her situation, however, is very easy to resolve."

"She only needs to be taught a top-tier Profound Yin Cultivation Technique, allowing her to actively activate that 'Yin Spirit Body' completely!"

"At that time, the cold illness in her body will heal without medicine. She might even turn misfortune into a blessing, soaring to greatness with this special Physique, which is rare in ten thousand years, and become a true cultivation Genius!"

"Oh?"

Mysterious Ink heard this, and a hint of suspicion flashed in his majestic dragon pupils.

"You, aren't you, perhaps, thinking of taking another Disciple?"

"Impossible!"

However, this time, Ye Feiyan's answer was resolute!

A never-before-seen, icy determination flashed in her cold phoenix eyes!

"In my previous life, I was betrayed by my only Personal Disciple! That's why I ended up dying and having my Dao vanish!"

"In this life, I, Ye Feiyan, will absolutely not take any more Disciples!"

However, she changed the subject.

"Although I won't take her as a Disciple."

"But the Ye Family truly needs such a future top Genius."

"The Ye Family, after all, is the Family that gave birth to me and raised me; I cannot ignore them."

"However, I bear a deep blood feud, and in the future, I am destined not to stay long in the Ye Family, or even in this world."

"So, I will arrange for Ding Xiaoxue to join the Ye Family, let her acknowledge my father as her adoptive father. When she grows up, with her protecting the Ye Family, I can be completely at ease."

Mentioning the Ye Family.

Mysterious Ink couldn't help but recall the simple and kind old couple.

"Speaking of which, we've been out for several months now."

"It's about time we made some time to go back and see The Two Elders."

"Mm."

Ye Feiyan nodded gently, agreeing.

"Once Ding Xiaoxue's matter is completely resolved and I've communicated well with Ding Zhen."

"We will return to the Ye Family."

...The next day, early morning.

Ye Feiyan was just about to go out to the Tianyun Mountain Range to continue searching for the Spirit Medicine needed to refine the infant transformation pill.

A familiar figure, full of anxiety and boisterousness, suddenly burst in!

It was Lin Yao!

"Junior Sister! Something bad has happened!"

He spoke with an anxious expression, stepping forward quickly: "The Sect just sent an urgent summons! All Beast Taming Sect Disciples who are currently outside must return to the Sect within three days! It seems that something momentous is about to happen!"

"You, hurry and come back with me!"

However, Ye Feiyan heard this and simply shook her head indifferently.

"No."

"I have important matters to attend to."

"What?!" Lin Yao immediately became anxious upon hearing this, "Junior Sister! This is not a joke! The Sect has given an order: this time, anyone who disobeys the summons will be punished for treason against the Sect!"

However, Ye Feiyan remained unmoved.

Beast Taming Sect?

For her now, returning or not returning was already irrelevant.

"Alas!"

Seeing that Ye Feiyan was determined to leave, Lin Yao could only let out a helpless sigh.

He no longer insisted, and left alone, filled with worry.

However, after he left.

Mysterious Ink's playful thoughts slowly sounded.

"This guy is quite interesting."

"He seems to have a Golden Core Realm aura that doesn't belong to him."

"That aura, though powerful, is also full of new life, like a sea beast cub that has just hatched from its shell."

Ye Feiyan heard this, and a hint of understanding flashed in her cold phoenix eyes.

She slowly looked in the direction of Tidal Palace, a faint curve appearing at the corner of her lips.

"It seems that the true Legacy of Tidal Palace must have fallen to this person."
