Clan Cultivation: The Ye Clan

"Wait for those three to come again."

Ye Zhendong instantly understood Ye Zhenzhen's meaning and asked uncertainly, "Are you sure they will come again?"

"Yes, definitely."

Seeing his sister's confident expression, Ye Zhenwen added, "What if there are more than just three people coming? How will we escape then?"

Ye Zhenzhen suddenly turned her head to look at Ye Zhenwen, and her previously confident expression cracked slightly.

"Cough cough cough, it shouldn't be like that. Those people have arrested countless small fry like us. How could they possibly send some big shot?"

No, no, it definitely won't happen.

While brainwashing herself, Ye Zhenzhen stared intently at the entrance.

Ye Zhendong found this unreliable and then asked, "Did you check the cultivation levels of those three just now? They weren't low!"

Seeing his sister's absent-minded expression, Ye Zhenwen continued, "Indeed, two are in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, and one is in the early Foundation Establishment stage."

At this point, Ye Zhenwen was a little worried, realizing that his cultivation level was indeed a burden to them.

Seeing that Ye Zhenwen was not in high spirits, Ye Zhendong thought for a moment and knew what was going on. He smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't think too much. If all else fails, use a talisman. It can hold out for a while."

Ye Zhenwen nodded, "I've also prepared quite a few pills, enough to last for a while."

Just as the two were chatting, Ye Zhenzhen suddenly stood up and carefully observed the structure of the cell.

After reading it, I smiled slightly.

Ye Zhenwen and Ye Zhendong were both completely confused. What was going on?

Just as Ye Zhendong was about to ask a question, he saw Ye Zhenzhen take out something that looked like a cage.

Ye Zhendong took a closer look and confirmed that it was indeed a cage made of an unknown black metal.

Ye Zhenwen leaned over from the other side, "What is that?"

Ye Zhenzhen gave a mysterious smile, "It's a good thing. With it, I can rest assured."

After saying that, Ye Zhenzhen controlled the cage, which was the size of a palm, to enlarge it to the size of the prison cell.

They opened the cage and the three of them quickly jumped inside.

Ye Zhendong looked up at the cage with a curious expression. "What's that?"

Ye Zhenzhen explained, "The Gangyin Sand Cage is used to trap people."

Ye Zhenwen then asked, "How come you have so many strange things? And where did they come from?"

Ye Zhenzhen explained that this was something that happened a long time ago at the Li family in Yunlin City.

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhendong and Ye Zhenwen simultaneously gave Ye Zhenzhen a thumbs up. "Wow, she's amazing! Even after being caught, she still managed to steal someone else's things. Impressive!"

Ye Zhenzhen controlled the cage to be the exact size of the cell, and then laid the existing straw mat on the ground underneath, just like before.

"That's about it," Ye Zhenzhen said after finishing tidying up.

Ye Zhendong glanced at it and said with dissatisfaction, "You can't look at it closely. If you look closely, you can still see some differences."

Ye Zhenwen reassured, "That's about enough. Let's wait for someone to arrive."

They waited until it got dark.

With no one coming, the three members of the Ye family were getting a little bored, keeping a close eye on the entrance, always on guard.

Ye Zhenzhen gently stroked her empty wrist. Tengzi hadn't come back yet, and she wondered how he was doing.

Just as Ye Zhenzhen was worrying, Yin Yue Ling Teng was on its way back.

After an incense stick had burned, Ye Zhenzhen sensed movement on the ground, stretched out her right hand, and placed it on the ground.

A small vine quickly climbed up Ye Zhenzhen's wrist and transformed into an ordinary wooden bracelet.

Ye Zhenzhen gently touched the wooden bracelet. "How are you? Are you alright?"

Yin Yue Ling Teng hesitated, organizing her thoughts, then said, "I think you might be in big trouble!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhenzhen's brows furrowed, and her previously relaxed face instantly turned serious.

【what's the situation? 】

This should be the residence of the Dongfang family, the largest family in Xinglan City.

[The Dongfang family...that name sounds familiar!]

Have you been here before?

Ye Zhenzhen fell into thought. She had never been here before, but she had heard about it.

Judging by the timeline, it should be a few years from now when two young geniuses will appear here, both from the Dongfang family: one a renowned alchemist and the other a renowned spirit medicine master.

The alchemist, from the Ming Dynasty in the East, was famous for his elixirs, which were more effective than those of others.

The alchemist, Dongfang Mingyue, is widely known for his extraordinary ability to cultivate spiritual herbs.

These two became renowned figures precisely because of their exceptional skills.

I never expected that their family would do such a thing.

Lost in thought, Ye Zhenzhen ignored the telepathic message from the Moon-Illuminating Vine.

The Moon-Reflecting Spirit Vine called out several times, but seeing that Ye Zhenzhen did not respond, it extended a vine that climbed up her shoulder and onto her head.

"Thump, thump, thump," he smacked Ye Zhenzhen's head three times without any politeness.

With a hiss, Ye Zhenzhen quickly covered her head and stared intently at the culprit.

With a "whoosh," the Moon-Reflecting Spirit Vine quickly retracted its unruly tendrils, feigning ignorance.

Ye Zhendong and Ye Zhenwen had been keeping an eye on the situation at the entrance, but they also noticed Ye Zhenzhen's unusual behavior.

He remained silent and still for a long time, as if he were thinking about something.

Then, a vine brazenly climbed up Ye Zhenzhen's head. Just moments ago, she was wondering what it was up to.

They witnessed Ye Zhenzhen being hit on the head, and neither of them could hold back for a moment.

"puff"

"puff"

The two of them burst into laughter.

Ye Zhenzhen glared at the two of them, annoyed. "Bad people."

She reached out and tapped the little white flower on her wrist. "Why did you hit it so hard? It hurts."

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhenwen quickly went over, squatted down, and looked at his forehead, which had been bruised from being hit.

She tapped the little white flower on Ye Zhenzhen's wrist and said, "Be gentler next time. If you smash it and make it look ugly, it won't look good."

"Brother~"

Ye Zhenwen smiled and rubbed his sister's forehead. "Alright, alright, it's nothing."

Ye Zhenzhen continued to transmit her voice, "What did you just say?"

I knew you weren't listening properly.

Something's not right about this house; there seems to be some evil spirit underground.

Ye Zhenzhen immediately sat up straight, her expression turning serious. [What did you say?]

[I don't know exactly what it is yet, but as soon as I went deeper underground, I felt uncomfortable all over, and the soil here seems...]

[What seems to be wrong?]

It seems to have been contaminated by something.

【what? 】

[It appears to be...blood.]

[Blood! Heretical cultivator? Demonic cultivator?]

It's hard to say, we can't be sure yet. Zhenzhen, let's leave here as soon as possible.

Yes, that's what I think too.

Just then, Ye Zhenzhen and Ye Zhenwen's communication jade tablets lit up simultaneously.

The two exchanged a glance. What was going on?

They took out their respective communication jade tokens and tapped them lightly.

A similar voice rang out.

"Zhen'er, Wen'er..."
