In the misty valley, Ye Jingcheng walked out of the Alchemy Pavilion with a calm expression, even though he was not exactly at ease. He examined the prepared Spirit Pills once more.

After confirming there were no issues, he stepped out of the Alchemy Pavilion.

Both Supreme Taihao and Qianhe Ascendant had arrived outside the Ye Family's Earth Fire Room.

With these two Ascendants belonging to an Upper Sect, the rest of the Ye Family had no ability to block their way.

For the two Ascendants, having waited at the Ye Family for three days, they also wanted an explanation, so they went directly to the Earth Fire Room.

If the Ye Family still didn't take action, they needed to return to Jade Dragon Valley to report, as that is the place where the Taiyi Sect truly defends against the Beast Tide.

Back then, the Taiyi Sect attacked Jade Dragon Valley precisely because of its strategic position; inside is Chixia Ridge and outside is open plains. If the Beast Tide bursts forth from there, Taihang Commandery would be difficult to defend.

Moreover, that area lacks strong families to guard it.

"Congratulations to Patriarch Ye for another breakthrough in alchemy!" Supreme Taihao naturally congratulated, sincerely.

Although Ye Jingcheng's elder brother, Ye Jingteng, was his disciple, in the Cultivation Realm, seniority was often assessed differently.

Having witnessed Ye Jingcheng's formidable Alchemy Skill, he became more convinced that Ye Jingcheng would be his junior in the future.

"Elder Taihao, Elder Qianhe, I've had some insights recently, so I refined an upper-grade Spirit Pill. If this delayed your matters, I willingly accept punishment!" Ye Jingcheng spoke sincerely, presenting the upper-grade Spirit Pill he had prepared.

After letting them glance at it, he put it away.

Qianhe Ascendant had always opposed the Ye Family but couldn't find fault with the Spirit Pill, so he said nothing further but snorted discontentedly.

"Regarding the matter of the Blood Cultivators, a strategy must be found quickly. Even with the two of us here, it's hard to locate them. This naturally requires the Ye Family's cooperation. It's best to use some of the Ye Family's resource points, like the Spirit Medicine Garden, or areas with many cultivators but lack of High-tier Combat Power, as bait!" Qianhe Ascendant's suggestion was not very clever.

This might lure the Evil Cultivators, but finding them could also severely weaken Ye Family's vitality.

The Ye Family already had few members.

"Elder Qianhe, that may not be possible. Except for near Lingyun Peak, there are few Mortal Towns left!" Ye Jingcheng shook his head.

In these three days, he estimated that Qianhe Ascendant and Supreme Taihao had used Divine Sense to inspect several times.

It was just that since Ye Jingcheng and Ye Haicheng hadn't emerged from seclusion, they couldn't investigate the ground.

"Indeed, the Ye Family has fewer cultivators. If used as bait, they might not last until we arrive. This time, there's definitely a Tier Three Evil Cultivator!" Supreme Taihao spoke in support of the Ye Family.

In the Market, he had seen the Tier Three Blood Cultivator, so he disagreed with the bait strategy.

Seeing this, Qianhe Ascendant knew his calculations had failed and said nothing more.

Everyone spoke tactfully, so he did not lose face but then glanced at the peak of Lingyun Peak.

"Patriarch Ye, why has the Spirit Beast Valley been unusually quiet recently?"

It's known that the Ye Family has a Spirit Beast Valley; although Spirit Beasts are intelligent, they shouldn't be this quiet.

They had seen Ye Family's Spirit Beast Valley before, and it wasn't like this.

"It's indeed quieter than usual!" Ye Jingcheng was also a bit flustered inside.

After all, the Ye Family's Spirit Beasts had been gathered away.

Usually, Spirit Beasts would not be put away, which was a bit suspicious.

"Mainly, the combat-capable Spirit Beasts have been gathered by us. Our Ye Family is ready to eradicate the Blood Cultivators at any time!" Ye Jingcheng remained remarkably calm and smoothly explained away.

He then looked towards Ye Haicheng's cave abode.

"My great-uncle has also emerged from seclusion!"

With Ye Jingcheng's words, Ye Haicheng walked down from the mountain peak, only today, he was not wearing the Spirit-Blocking Robe but had changed into a richly embroidered Daoist Robe.

Even his hair was tied up, and his expression had become much more handsome.

Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but admire Ye Haicheng's attention to detail.

At Wangyue Lake in the Taihang Mountain Range, both Ye Haicheng and Ye Jingcheng had taken Bone Transformation Pills. Ye Haicheng transformed into the image of Kong Yulong, while Ye Jingcheng took on the image of Kong Wanjun.

But since Kong Yulong's hair was down, Ye Haicheng was worried that keeping it down would allow the Silver Moon Python Great Demon to recognize him.

Ye Jingcheng was a bit lax in this aspect.

Fortunately, he wore the Patriarch's Robe, differing from the Spirit-Blocking Robe.

"I've practiced a Secret Technique, so some delay occurred; I hope fellow Daoists do not mind!" Ye Haicheng spoke.

His gaze held confidence.

That confidence seemed as if he had truly grasped a Secret Technique, enhancing his power significantly.

"No problem, this time the Blood Cultivators have taken advantage of the chaos, which is the duty of all cultivators of the Taiyi Sect!" Supreme Taihao spoke with righteous words.

Ye Haicheng also unleashed a Command Token.

"All late-stage Qi Cultivation cultivators of the Ye Family, assemble!" With this, all Ye Family cultivators began to converge.

"Fellow Daoists, I have refined a Blood Tracking Talisman, which can probably track the whereabouts of the Blood Cultivators. But first, we must gather all Ye Family cultivators in the Assembly Hall!"

"This time, tens of thousands of mortals have been lost. If this matter goes unresolved, our Ye Family's hundred-year prestige will be completely lost!" Ye Haicheng spoke with authority.

The two exchanged glances and hadn't expected the Ye Family to be so prepared; they immediately headed to the Ye Family's Assembly Hall and indeed saw most of the Ye Family members assembled.
