But Mo Qi still needed to speak harshly upfront.

The Merfolk naturally understood what this meant, as those young merfolk who were considered the "pride of their clan" swore their oaths to the Moon God.

Just at the moment they were swearing.

From the back hall.

Li Ye and Yang Ke walked out one after the other.

Everyone turned their gaze to Yang Ke, then realized that he now exuded a Spiritual Power wave close to the Golden Core, and his whole being lacked the previous desolation, looking vibrant and spirited.

"!!!"

"Has the Moon Soul Horror Curse truly been lifted?"

"By the Moon God above."

The fact lay plainly in sight, and they were each astonished, eyes brimming with excitement, practically wishing they could rush forward and embrace Li Ye's leg.

As long as they could continue their cultivation journey, it was no disgrace.

Moreover, the Merfolk Race.

Always had the tradition of seeking strong allies to rely on.

Li Ye was also very pleased.

Although lifting the Moon Soul Horror Curse once only fills about a thousandth of Spiritual Power for an unblemished Moon Seed.

However, little by little it accumulates.

And as the Moon Soul Horror Curse is lifted, the overflowing Moon Power can also be converted onto his Silver Moon Grass, acquiring many Moon Liquid Pearls, truly a win-win situation.

Thinking about the treasures he was soon to receive, he couldn't help but feel the excitement, only his Spiritual Power was not limitless.

Thus he said helplessly:

"My Spiritual Power is limited, I can lift the Moon Soul Horror Curse for at most nine individuals in a row, removing Yang Ke leaves eight remaining."

"After it's finished, I need to rest for three months before a second lifting can proceed."

Upon hearing these words.

All the merfolk were unsettled.

If there was no hope, they could still endure, but now having seen it truly could be lifted, every moment without relief was truly unsettling to them.

The sooner they could lift it, the sooner they could resume their cultivation.

Yet they dared not speak loudly.

They could only look at Li Ye eagerly, then at Mo Qi, with pleas clearly overflowing in their eyes.

Mo Qi, however, was unwilling to speak on their behalf.

The ability to lift the Moon Soul Horror Curse was already a heavenly blessing, many gifted individuals prior had to delay their lives because of it, and yet you refuse to wait even a little longer?

Furthermore, she didn't want her diligent apprentice to be exhausted.

However.

Li Ye considered that these people were ultimately of Teacher's clan, though his power could not lift the Moon Soul Horror Curse in one go.

Alleviation was still achievable.

"I have a method, requiring you to offer an island bathed in moonlight, preferably with at least five Fifth-tier Spirit Veins..."

Before he finished speaking.

Yang Ke's father immediately said, "Yes, yes!"

This robust Nascent Soul merfolk with a thunderous voice suppressed others who wanted to speak, his face glowing with a radiant smile:

"This island was originally my Golden Core gift to my son, now it suits perfectly, Ke'er, why don't you lead True Man Lingye to see it?"

Yang Ke wasn't foolish, seeing Li Ye nod at him, he quickly asked True Man Moqi: "Aunt, please undo the Four Seasons Spatial Array here."

—The guest hall in Four Seasons Sect had a ready Four Seasons Spatial Array capable of linking to any place in the Eastern Domain, with permission it could instantly open space arrays to any corner.

"Certainly."

Mo Qi also wanted to see what Li Ye intended to do, so she decisively waved her hand.

A beam of light enveloped the shell in Yang Ke's hand, quickly a large doorway flowing with seawater appeared in the hall.

Mo Qi and Li Ye went in first.

Then Yang Ke's family, followed by a crowd of Golden Core Nascent Soul and Merfolk seeking curse removal.

After passing through the doorway.

They stood in a place where the land was sea blue, surrounded by winds swirling in vortices, with only this island at the center of the vortex, a serene and extraordinary place.

The moonlight in the sky showered the island, spiritual energy thick enough to condense into mist and spiritual water droplets, even a mortal breathing a few breaths here could live long, free from illness.

On a closer look, the land here seemed blended with moonlight and sea breeze, even deeper there were coral imprints like smooth jade—clearly built by Green Sea Spirit Coral Worms.

The Nascent Souls familiar with Yang Ke's father were quite shocked:

"Isn't this Ocean Sun Island?"

"You old guy actually willing to give this island to your son?"

"If my son had such a good relationship with True Man Lingye, I would also hand over the clan's vital land to him."

Such islands constructed by Green Sea Spirit Coral Worms were the inheritance land of every clan, nurtured by the merfolk ancestors who first arrived at the East Pole Yang Sea; it's said the successor would surely become Clan Leader.

Yang Ke hadn't expected his father to simply hand it over to him—back when he lost his cultivation, though his father still treated him well, the Clan Leader position had been out of question.

Some shallow-eyed "siblings" even came to flaunt in front of him.

But now his fortunes had turned, the Ocean Sun Island belonged to him, wonder what expression those "fine siblings" would show upon seeing it?

It was all thanks to Li Ye.

A bold idea emerged in his mind, but he dared not decide, taking the chance as Li Ye surveyed the land to approach his father.

He whispered: "Father, if I led the clan to pledge allegiance to True Man Lingye, would you agree?"

The Yangyao clan at least had two Nascent Souls, dozens of Golden Cores, thousands of Foundation Establishment cultivators, certainly not a small force, pledging to a Golden Core mid-period cultivator did seem odd.

Yet he felt cultivation wasn't a shackle for Li Ye, if they didn't seize the opportunity now before Li Ye expanded his force, they might miss the chance.

"..."

His father heard what he said, silently gazed at Li Ye for a long while, eventually patted his son's head.

In an unprecedented gentle voice he said:

"Then let it be."

"I have chosen you as Clan Leader, how the Yangyao clan should develop is your matter."

"It's just a pity you're a man, otherwise I'd swallow my pride to ask Aunt for..."

The last words remained unsaid.

Because Mo Qi's imposing gaze had already fixed in this direction.

He shut his mouth immediately.

Honestly watching Li Ye use Spiritual Power to draw on the ground, sowing some seeds.

With Li Ye's graceful movements.

The moonlight in the sky was transformed by the array patterns suspended in the air, scattering a flurry of blue-white snowflakes.

Luxuriant Silver Moon Grass grew rapidly on the ground.

With a stance like stars surrounding the moon they clustered around a tree that looked like a willow but exceptionally beautiful, overflowing with Immortal Light Spirit Plant at the center of the Silver Moon Grass.

"Emotion Song?"

There were also some with broad knowledge present.

Especially True Man Moqi, it was her first time witnessing the Emotion Song manifesting as a Spirit Plant.

"Indeed."

Li Ye quickly set up the array, looking at the merfolk troubled by the Moon Soul Horror Curse with a subtle smile akin to seeing a fat sheep.

He spoke: "Everyone can first sit around this Emotion, reaching out to hold its branches, able to alleviate the pain from the Moon Soul Horror Curse.

Later, I will randomly select the remaining eight for curse removal."

With words barely ending.

The merfolk hurried towards the Emotion, obediently sitting, reaching out to grasp its branches, which guided the overflowing Moon Soul Horror Curse energy, transforming it into snowflakes drifting on the wind.

At first glance.

It seemed like the Emotion was creating snowflakes.

Snowflakes lightly drifted onto the surrounding Silver Moon Grass, absorbed by them, transforming into more of the Moon Liquid Pearls rushing towards the Heavenly Dome.

The sheer quantity.

For a moment, snowflakes fell, round Silver Moon Pearls surged towards the sky, alongside countless Spiritual Qi mist billowing, the scene was truly stunning.
