Clan Cultivation: The Ye Clan

Finally, everyone looked at Ye Anxin, who had not yet spoken.

"Xin'er, what are your thoughts?" Ye Shibai asked.

"Um, Dad, I'm not very good at any of these things, so I'll just take care of the family's spirit fields." Ye Anxin said, looking a little dejected, but it seemed that she really didn't have anything she was particularly good at.

Seeing that her mother was unhappy, Ye Zhenzhen ran over, grabbed the jade slip containing the Withering and Flourishing Technique, and handed it to Ye Anxin, saying, "Mother, why don't you try practicing this Withering and Flourishing Technique?"

"The Withering and Flourishing Technique is mainly divided into two parts. One part is the Withering Wood Technique, which directly extracts the life force of spiritual plants. The other part is the Life Force Technique, which is used to promote plant growth. You can use this to promote the growth of spiritual rice. Maybe the spiritual rice can mature faster!"

Ye Anxin picked up the jade slip her daughter had given her and began to read it carefully.

Seeing that Ye Anxin was studying diligently, the others continued their discussion.

Ye Shibai listened to everyone's ideas and found them all to be very reasonable. He then said, "What everyone said makes a lot of sense. So let me say this: although our family has now encountered a great opportunity, there are still crises around us. Therefore, the family's current direction is to develop in a low-key manner, so we must avoid being ostentatious."

"First of all, Fifth Brother, An Yuan has always been in charge of Mianyu Pavilion. You should first compile a list of the spiritual herbs and medicines that the family currently needs, and have An Yuan take charge of purchasing them. The key is the seeds; if you have any, you must get them. Also, regarding the experiment of segmented alchemy, you should see how many people you need and prioritize arranging manpower for your side."

"Yes"

"Secondly, second brother, in addition to the original members of your hunting team, add a few more people with high cultivation levels. Act according to Bai'er's plan, and be sure to pay attention to safety."

"Yes"

"Again, Bai'er, study the talisman inheritance carefully. Once the materials are in place, we will begin making them. You should find a suitable place to build a workshop and make preparations."

"There's no rush for that. You should first organize the spiritual plants and objects from various inheritances. Our family doesn't seem to have any information on this kind of thing, so we need to fill in the gaps as soon as possible. Otherwise, if our family members see spiritual objects later and don't recognize them, we'll suffer a great loss."

"Yes"

"Finally, Xin'er, the family's spiritual fields are entrusted to you. You must work hard."

"Yes"

"The arrangements for the family's development have been finalized. Next, we discussed the He family. The He family is becoming increasingly arrogant, and the Zhou family is doing nothing. We can no longer sit idly by and wait for our doom. I would like to hear everyone's thoughts on what to do next."

With a "smack," Ye Shiqing slammed his hand on the table, stood up, and said, "If you ask me, we should just go straight for it and face the He family patriarch. Although I'm not confident of victory, it's still worth a try."

Ye Zhenzhen quietly reached out her little hand and touched the maple wood table. Not bad, it's quite sturdy. Second Grandpa is a real brute!

Third Grandfather Ye Shilan did not speak.

Seeing that no one was speaking, Ye Anbo said, "The Zhou family and the He family are currently related by marriage, and the Zhou family will definitely protect the He family. But what if this marriage relationship is broken? They might become enemies."

Ye Shibai looked at Ye Anbo with an appreciative gaze, signaling him to continue.

"If this daughter-in-law of the Zhou family does something to offend the Zhou family, and we spread some rumors, the consequences are unimaginable."

"We can make some plans, but we must be cautious and not let anyone notice that we are the Ye family."

Seeing that her father's plan was almost finished, Ye Zhenrong said, "Zhen'er also has some ideas, Zhen'er, tell me."

Ye Zhenzhen looked at her fifth brother, gritted her teeth, and thanked him sincerely.

“Grandpa, I don’t have any particular ideas. I just saw the first-tier weapon crafting inheritance on the table and wondered if we could take advantage of it. The He family is skilled in weapon crafting, so could we cut off their source of income?” Ye Zhenzhen said.

“Grandpa, Zhen’er’s idea is to cooperate with the Zhao family, which is affiliated with the Zheng family, the city lord’s family, and use the first-order weapon refining inheritance as a stepping stone to get them to suppress the He family’s shops. Ideally, they should also cut off their raw material supply. This way, the He family’s development should be hindered,” Ye Zhenrong said.

Ye Shibai smiled at the two little ones and praised, "Good idea, you can give it a try. Rong'er will be in charge of arranging this plan, and Bai'er will assist. You two, father and son, will work together. What do you think, Zhen'er?"

"Yes, that's great." Ye Zhenzhen smiled smugly at Ye Zhenrong, thinking to herself, "Trying to trick me? No way."

Ye Zhenrong looked at her younger sister and nodded helplessly.

"Let's arrange it like this for now. Do you have any other ideas?" Ye Shibai asked.

“Yes, yes, Grandpa, Second Grandpa’s opinion,” Ye Zhenzhen said, pulling on her grandfather Ye Shibai’s hand. “We should let the He family know that we are not easy to bully. I saw two people lurking suspiciously outside our mountain gate a few days ago. They didn’t look like good people at all.”

When did you see it?

"Was it yesterday or the day before yesterday? I forgot. Wait a minute, let me take another look." As she spoke, Ye Zhenzhen closed her eyes, released her divine sense, and extended it outwards until she reached a point 50 feet outside the mountain gate, where she saw the two people.

"They're still here, two people wearing blue robes, Mother, and the same clothes as the people chasing us." Ye Zhenzhen said this with a little dejection.

"What's wrong?" Ye Shipai asked, noticing Ye Zhenzhen's changed expression.

"They're eating roasted rabbit." Ye Zhenzhen smacked her lips silently.

"Hahaha"

Everyone looked at Ye Zhenzhen with smiles, this little glutton.

"Zhen'er, tell Grandpa, how far can you see?" Ye Shibai asked, his smile fading and his expression turning serious.

"Probably a few hundred to a thousand feet."

After Ye Zhenzhen finished speaking, everyone else stared at her in shock, as if she were a monster.

Ye Zhenzhen thought to herself, "If Grandpa hadn't already known, I wouldn't have revealed my powerful spiritual sense so early." She feigned ignorance and asked, "Can't you see it?"

Ye Shibai didn't answer the question, but instead said to the others, "Zhen'er's divine sense is a family secret and must not be revealed to outsiders." Then, turning to Ye Zhenzhen, he added, "Zhen'er herself is not allowed to tell anyone other than these people, understand?"

"Okay, Zhen'er understands." Ye Zhenzhen obediently replied.

Ye Shibai continued, "Second brother, you'll have to do this for a bit. Go there later, bring the man back, lock him up for a couple of days, and then interrogate him properly."

That's all for today. Does anyone have anything to say? If not, let's call it a day.

After Ye Shibai finished speaking, he went back first, and the others also went home one after another, leaving the council hall empty in an instant.

After Ye Anxin carried Ye Zhenzhen back, she was placed directly in the quilt and drifted off to sleep.
