After urging once more, it was time for the Ye Family to depart.

Due to their experiences with the Evil Cultivators, the Ye Family had begun creating traces of the chaos brought by these Evil Cultivators, relocating all mortals.

Although the Ye Family had many mortals, the cultivators in the Ye Family's Inner Hall were dispatched early to each Mortal Town, and then Turtle Ancestor collected these mortals.

In the end, it was the Evil Cultivators wreaking havoc, destroying the towns and creating blood pools.

These were then discovered by the Ye Family's late-stage Qi Cultivation members.

The whole process almost started simultaneously.

The scape-goat was quite fitting, it was the Evil Cultivators of the Celestial Corpse Sect.

Moreover, Taihang Market's inaction and the Ye Family's resistance incited the vengeful mindset of the Evil Cultivators.

All explanations were seamless and logical.

...

Soon, it was early morning the next day, and the dawn light slightly emerged from the east.

As a result of the storm, the dawn light was exceptionally bright and especially gentle.

Around Taihang Market, an unusual thick fog arose.

The dawn light pierced through the fog, forming a stunning hazy landscape painting.

Ye Jingcheng went again to Jiang Jinghe's room to urge him.

The latter finally handed over a significant list.

However, it consisted mostly of old cultivators, with few Foundation Establishment members and mostly late-stage Qi Cultivation cultivators. This Demon Hunting Team dealing with Tier Three Blood Cultivator, was almost a joke.

It seemed like a merely symbolic gesture.

Ye Jingcheng was naturally furious, angered, and left furiously after a few words of scolding.

As Ye Jingcheng departed, Jiang Jinghe became somewhat perplexed.

For someone who had been in Taihang Market for so many years, he couldn't possibly be oblivious to everything.

Since Ye Haicheng didn't urge but Ye Jingcheng did, it was quite out of the ordinary.

After all, when a Purple Mansion Ascendant urges and a Foundation Establishment urges, there's a substantial difference.

If urged by a Foundation Establishment, he could proceed as usual. If urged by a Purple Mansion Ascendant, he couldn't, and he had to take numerous actions, and could not be perfunctory.

Even though he had doubts in his mind, he had no intention of breaking through the superficial lies, but instead actively communicated with the Xu, Jin, Kong, and Chu Families.

They seemed genuinely intent on using the full force of Taihang Commandery to drive out the Evil Cultivators.

However, just like how he was perfunctory with Ye Jingcheng, others were equally perfunctory with them.

Of course, Jiang Jinghe was more than happy to see it so.

Given the state of Taihang Commandery, he didn't wish to offend any family.

After all, he was the Market Master stationed by the Sect at Taihang Market and concurrently the Prefect; come what may, he wouldn't encounter trouble.

There was no need for him to engage in that chaos.

He only needed to maintain appearances, slowly amass his salary, and prepare to break through the Purple Mansion tier with the Spirit Medicines, ready for his breakthrough.

For cultivators, wealth and power were not paramount; the primary concern was one's own cultivation.

...

When Ye Jingcheng returned to the Spirit Beast Shop, he saw the Ye Family's Spiritual Ship descending again from the sky, revealing several anxious-looking figures.

They slowly emerged from the fog, each appearing mournful.

"Patriarch, terrible news, more than half of the Family's mortals have been blood-sacrificed!"

"A large number of Evil Cultivators have appeared!" As a few members of the Ye Family spoke up.

Ye Jingcheng and Ye Haicheng's expressions changed, and they immediately led several late-stage Qi Cultivation cultivators toward Lingyun Peak.

Only Ye Xinghe was left behind.

"Uncle, go find Master Jiang, explain the urgency of the situation to him. The family is at a critical point of survival. The Evil Cultivators are likely to attack Lingyun Peak!" Ye Jingcheng almost shouted.

Then, the Spiritual Ship vanished in the fog of Taihang Market.

...

At Lingyun Peak, all the Ye Family members were on high alert. As soon as Ye Jingcheng and Ye Haicheng arrived at Lingyun Peak, they both flew to the high skies of Lingyun Lake.

Seeing the Teleportation Array had disappeared, they all heaved a long sigh of relief.

The migration plan for the Ye Family's mortals had been completed, and the Teleportation Array was hidden again in the Grotto Pocket World of Turtle Ancestor.

This time, the Ye Family had beaten the clock.

The remaining mortals were now in the Mo Family's Buqing Mountain era.

And the mortals near Ye Family's Lingyun Peak.

These mortals also began migrating towards Buqing Mountain's direction.

If nothing unexpected happens, those cultivators from Taiyi Sect and Taihang Market will notice the frightened migration of the Ye Family's mortals.

Ye Jingcheng and Ye Haicheng also checked the towns ravaged once more.

Finally, they looked at Ye Xingqun:

"Uncle Xingqun, burn all the towns!" Ye Jingcheng said.

Upon these words, Ye Xingqun hesitated, as this was evidence he had deliberately preserved.

"The evidence is too deliberate; no one would ever believe it." After hearing this, Ye Xingqun nodded and started burning town after town.

After all, the blood corpses wreaking havoc had left behind corpse poison, which although harmless to cultivators, would spell disaster for mortals.

Only after the towns were burned could such chaos be averted.

Once the burning was complete, Ye Jingcheng also used the Memory Mirror to observe.

After gleefully watching the vague figure of a Blood Cultivator and Spirit Shadow escape, his heart was completely at ease.

"There hasn't been any issue over at Jade Dragon Valley, right?" Ye Jingcheng asked again.

"Patriarch, no issues; the Three Great Demon Kings have all appeared, and it's almost impossible for any True Master, even Purple Mansion Ascendants might be few!"

"Moreover, near Ye Family's proximity to the Taihang Mountain Range, low-tier Demon Beasts have begun to appear, symbolizing a Beast Tide!" Ye Xingqun reported.

Of course, a Beast Tide could not occur suddenly, just like before, it wasn't possible for the Ye Family to recreate the scene with the Mo Family.

However, with the last action opportunity afforded by the Earth Dragon Demon King, all issues were easily resolved.

The Beast Tide triggered by the Earth Dragon Demon King, alongside Three-Eyed Demon King seeking revenge, and Cloud Lion Demon King sharing common foes, the sudden rise of Silver Moon Demon King was easily understandable.

After all, the Demon Race had not occupied an advantage in their last confrontation.

And half a day later, as anticipated, came Supreme Taihao and Qianhe Ascendant. With these two Ascendants arriving together, the Ye Family naturally provided all sorts of evidence and information.

This information required no fabrication, simply recounting the Corpse Daoist's previous appearances sufficed.

After thoroughly investigating, Supreme Taihao and Qianhe Ascendant also looked displeased.

However, the result was inconclusive.

And they stationed themselves at the Ye Family.

On that day, Ye Jingcheng began announcing the mass production of Fireball Talismans and various Antitoxic Elixirs.

The former dealt with Spirit Corpses, while the latter served as antidotes for Corpse Poison.

Ye Jingcheng entered the Alchemy Room, while the welcoming party turned into Ye Xingliu.

...

At night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, the bright moonlight illuminating the mountains near Lingyun Peak.

A cultivator cloaked in a Five-Color Robe with a Spirit Beast Bag on their waist silently departed in the night.

He headed directly into the Taihang Mountain Range.

This cultivator was indeed Ye Jingcheng, only now concealed with a Spirit-Blocking Robe and a Five-Color Robe, even Supreme Taihao wouldn't recognize him.

Additionally, he consumed a Bone Transformation Pill, ensuring no exposure as long as he didn't summon his signature Spirit Beast.

Following the Spirit Diagram etched in his mind repeatedly, he directly deepened into the Taihang Mountain Range.

This time, his speed was unparalleled.

He bypassed Jade Dragon Valley, heading toward another mountain pass entrance.

There, more remote, held sparse Spirit Medicine resources, and was notably the place where Ye Jingcheng first entered the mountain range.

For a long stretch, there were no High-Tier Demon Beasts, and the cultivators from Ye Family's Lingyun Peak previously operated mostly here.

It also included the previous Six Families of Taihang, all in similar manners.

Ye Jingcheng selected this locale for safety.

After flying for a while, Ye Jingcheng directly summoned the Tier Two Top-Grade Spiritual Ship of the Corpse Daoist, the Black Coffin White Bone Ship.

Honestly, Ye Jingcheng didn't like this Spiritual Ship genuinely, but in the Celestial Corpse Sect, it was held in high esteem.

But for this mission, Ye Jingcheng naturally accepted it.

After traversing a large buffer zone, he reached the former vicinity of Sand Concealment Peak near Ye Family, and beyond that lay the domain of the Earth Dragon Demon King.

In this region, Tier Two Demon Beasts and Purple Mansion Great Demons multiplied.

Although the Ye Family had already communicated with the Earth Dragon Demon King, granting them direct entry as all demonic beasts had been diverted to Jade Dragon Valley.

After flying with the Spiritual Ship carelessly for half the night, finally, a vast, shimmering lake appeared in the distance before Ye Jingcheng's eyes.

This lake was precisely Wangyue Lake.
