Chapter 128: The Whole Family Moves Away

  A light sword cut through the black armor, and the gap in the black armor was as smooth as a knife cutting tofu.

  "Is this a Spiritual Treasure-level sword?" Ye Zhan Tian finally reacted, exclaiming in surprise. He closed his eyes to sense the aura on the sword, and when he opened them again, his expression changed as he said, "This is absolutely a top-grade Spiritual Treasure! I recall that back then, I saw a long sword of this level at an auction house, its sharpness was unmatched, but unfortunately, even if we had used all the money in the Ye family's treasury, it would have been impossible to buy."

  Immediately, Ye Zhan Tian noticed that there were more than 50 suits of armor and weapons, each one carefully identified.

  "One Treasure of Spirit!"

  "This is also a first-class spiritual treasure!"

  "This is also!" Ye Cangxuan, Ye Zhantian and others felt almost suffocated, their hearts beating non-stop.

  A crowd of people gathered around, marveling at the over fifty items, all of which were top-grade spiritual treasures! Many of them had never seen a top-grade spiritual treasure-level weapon or armor before.

  In a remote place like Donglin County, spiritual treasures are extremely rare. Ye Zhantian has only seen one in his entire life, and that was just in the clan's records on how to identify spiritual treasures. Even back when the Ye family was at its peak, they only had five or six first- or second-grade spiritual treasures, all of which were lost over time without a single piece being passed down. The lowest grade of first-class spiritual treasure can sell for tens of thousands of Qi Gathering Pills at an auction house, while slightly better ones can fetch over a hundred thousand to several hundred thousand Qi Gathering Pills. Even the elders of the Tiankui Star Sect's Earth Reverence level only have two or three first-class spiritual treasures on hand. It's easy to imagine just how precious spiritual treasures are. And yet Ye Chen somehow managed to get his hands on over fifty!

  A ninth-tier master, if wearing a first-rate spiritual treasure armor and holding a first-rate spiritual treasure weapon, would even dare to directly confront a tenth-tier master! From this, it can be imagined that the divine artifact's power is also very great!

  These weapons and armor were of no use to Ye Chen. As for the black bead and Broken Prison Sword, Ye Chen kept them for himself.

  There was still a large amount of white silver and gold in the armory space. Ye Chen took out a portion and had the clan members go purchase supplies.

  Although Liu Xun's letter to the barbarian country had been sent out, Ye Chen did not feel completely at ease. Within three days, he must first settle his clansmen!

  Knowing that Liu Xun had colluded with the barbarian country, Ye Chen's heart was even more filled with hidden worries. If the barbarian country found out that Yejia Fortress had killed Liu Xun and ruined their plans, they might also look for trouble with Yejia Fortress in the future. In front of such a massive national machine, Yejia Fortress was really too small, and would be crushed to dust at any moment. It was said that the strongest on the barbarian country's side was a Xuanzun-level strongman, and there were several Tianzun-level experts, far surpassing the Western Wu Empire in strength.

  Ye Chen had an urgent desire to become stronger in his heart, and he must make the Ye family grow stronger, otherwise it would be impossible to contend with those countries and super sects. In his heart, a grand wish gradually emerged, and he was determined to make the Ye family stand tall among the strong on the entire continent!

  Three days later, Ali brought back three demon beasts from Donglin County City. The grain had been distributed there, and hundreds of thousands of civilians received the grain. One hundred kilograms of grain would be enough for them to eat for one or two months without any problem. The Ye family members had also prepared all kinds of materials in abundance and quietly relocated their entire clan to the depths of Lianyun Mountain Range.

  Later, someone passed by Yejia Fortress and was shocked to find that a large martial arts family had disappeared into thin air, leaving no trace. Rumors spread, with some saying that the Ye family had moved away from the Western Wu Empire, others claiming that they had been exterminated, and still others believing that they had fled into the Lianyun Mountains but were attacked by monsters and became their food. In the end, no one knew where the Ye family went, becoming an unsolved mystery.

  The Ye family people walked through the dense mountains and forests, through that narrow path, and finally entered the valley. This valley was indeed a paradise on earth, with an area of tens of miles, very open, with grasslands and forests, and even a small lake, with clear water, many fish swimming inside, although there were some rotten beast corpses left on the ground, a bit messy, but after cleaning up, it would be fine.

  Ye Chen placed the Wind Walker and several other demonic beasts at the exit of this mountain valley, built a nest for them, so that no living person would approach and discover this mountain valley.

  "This place is really great!" Ye Zhantian and the others were all very excited. Such a hidden place, generally wouldn't be discovered by anyone, and they could open up farmland, catch fish, and the tribe's people living in the valley was absolutely no problem. Moreover, the spiritual energy here was dense, and cultivating here would be much faster than outside.

  "Dad, I have an idea." Ye Chen said after a moment of thought.

  "What's your idea?" Ye Zhan Tian and others looked at Ye Chen.

  "Let the three uncles, four uncles and five uncles go outside to gather some orphans with good innate abilities but who are still unaware of things, bring them here, teach them their skills and martial arts, and let them become members of the Ye family." Ye Chen said, "Now that the Ye family has a lot of money, we can provide food, Gathering Qi Dan and other things. The number of people in the Ye family is still too small, we need to expand and have talented people emerge in every generation, only then can we become a truly great aristocratic family!"

  Ye Zhan Tian and Ye Cang Xuan did not expect Ye Chen to make such a suggestion, and were quite surprised. After discussing it for a while, they also thought that this method was feasible.

  "It seems that we, the Ye family, should branch out and spread our leaves more." Ye Zhan Tian smiled and said. Before, the family's economy was not prosperous, and the clan members did not dare to have too many children. Now, however, they no longer had to worry about this problem. Just the silver, gold, and medicinal pellets that Ye Chen had brought back were enough for the Ye family to develop for a long time.

  The Ye family members began to choose a suitable place to build their houses, otherwise it would be troublesome when it rained. The wood needed for building the houses had to be fetched from outside, but before the family members could even leave the valley, Feng Xing Bai Yuan appeared with a huge pile of giant trees. These trees were at least two people thick and yet were uprooted by Feng Xing Bai Yuan as if they were mere twigs. The Ye family members were left speechless. A tenth-stage peak demon beast was indeed matchlessly powerful. The mighty strength of the tenth-stage demon beast made them feel a sense of security deep down in their hearts.

  Inside the valley, a busy scene unfolded, but at least everyone's heart was filled with hope. The only worry was that although the poison in Ye Zhanlong and Ye Meng's bodies had been suppressed, it would be difficult to completely cure them. Fortunately, they could maintain their health with medication for the next two or three years.

  Ye Chen thought of alchemy, only by learning alchemy first could he find a way to detoxify for his Second Uncle and Ye Meng. There were books on alchemy and a furnace, everything was ready, the only thing lacking was probably a mentor to guide him in. It seemed that he could only study on his own now. As for going to the Imperial Capital to pay respects to Xuan Yi Yao Zun as his master, Ye Chen didn't have such thoughts for the time being, and didn't know if Emperor Ming Wu would come looking for trouble with him or not!
