Clan Cultivation: The Ye Clan

The knocking interrupted Ye Zhenzhen's cultivation. Ye Zhenzhen knew without using her divine sense that the person outside was Ding Shuyao.

Thankfully, the door was sturdy enough to withstand such violent banging.

Ye Zhenzhen opened the door, and just as Ding Shuyao was about to say something, a sound transmission talisman flew to Ye Zhenzhen's front.

Ye Zhenzhen grabbed the communication talisman but didn't tear it apart immediately. She looked at Ding Shuyao.

Seeing Ye Zhenzhen's anxious expression, Ding Shuyao guessed it must be news from her family.

He said directly, "A few of us are going out on business. Be careful and stay safe."

After saying that, Ding Shuyao quickly left Ye Zhenzhen's room.

Ye Zhenzhen closed the door, tore up the communication talisman, and Ye Anbo's voice came out, "Zhenzhen, we've arrived at the Commoner's Inn. The innkeeper said you left half a month ago. Where are you now?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhenzhen didn't hesitate and immediately ran downstairs towards the commoners' inn across the street.

Just then, Ding Shuyao arrived at the Commoner's Inn.

The innkeeper saw the two of them and stammered, "You, you two..."

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Zhenzhen asked, "Did someone ask you about our whereabouts? Did you tell them we left half a month ago and haven't come back since?"

The shopkeeper's eyes widened, wondering to himself, "How did she know?"

Ye Zhenzhen and Ding Shuyao's group all saw the shopkeeper's expression.

I knew Ye Zhenzhen was right.

Ye Zhenzhen continued, "Tell me which room the person you asked is staying in?"

The shopkeeper, trying to stall for time and think of a way, said, "This, that."

Ye Yuhan, standing behind Ding Shuyao, unleashed the pressure of a Golden Core cultivator, almost forcing the shopkeeper to his knees.

Then I heard him say casually, "Tell the truth."

The shopkeeper couldn't take it anymore and knelt on the ground, saying, "Room C on the second floor, the one at the corner when you go upstairs."

Ye Zhenzhen ran straight towards the stairs and had just stepped onto the first step.

Ye Zhenzhen turned to the shopkeeper and said, "It's said that cultivators have better memories than ordinary people. You didn't remember someone you met this morning by noon. Is it because you forgot them on purpose, or are you deliberately hiding it?"

Without waiting for anyone's reaction, he went straight upstairs.

You lied to my family, so I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget.

Ye Zhenzhen walked to the door and banged on it loudly.

Soon, someone opened the door.

Before Ye Anbo could react, a small figure jumped into his arms.

He lowered his head, thinking, "I've finally found the troublesome one at home."

He held Ye Zhenzhen in his arms and stood in the doorway.

Ye Shiqing and Ye Zhenwen did not see the person who came.

Only when I got closer did I realize that it was Ye Zhenzhen who had returned.

Ye Zhenzhen hugged Ye Zhenwen and Ye Shiqing for a while.

Ye Anbo closed the door and pulled Ye Zhenzhen to sit on the stool next to the table.

Begin the interrogation.

The three of them carefully examined Ye Zhenzhen from head to toe, left to right.

Only after confirming that there were no injuries did they begin asking questions.

Just as Ye Anbo was about to speak, he felt something was amiss. After observing Ye Zhenzhen with his Crimson Eyes, he discovered that her cultivation had reached the 10th level of Qi Refining.

Ye Anbo asked in shock, "Zhenzhen, what's going on with your cultivation? You've increased by four levels in just one year. Your cultivation is growing too fast, and your foundation is unstable. This won't be good for your future."

Ye Shiqing and Ye Zhenwen were both shocked when they heard Ye Anbo's words.

Ye Zhenzhen first confirmed that the door was closed and the room's array had been activated.

He took out his usual concealment formation from the bracelet, set it up, grabbed the three people's hands, and with a thought, entered the Life Bead.

Before the three could react, the surrounding scenery changed, transforming into a forest of cats.

The three of them looked at Ye Zhenzhen in shock, waiting for her to explain.

Ye Zhenzhen took out a futon and sat on the ground, and the other three also sat on the ground.

Ye Zhenzhen recounted how she was inexplicably sucked into the fragment, how she spent a long time finding the fragment's heart, how she sent a message to her family, and how she was being followed while buying people at the Ghost Market.

Everyone who heard this was terrified.

Ye Shiqing glared at Ye Zhenzhen but didn't say anything.

Ye Anbo slapped Ye Zhenzhen on the head and said, "Looks like I'll have to assign someone to keep an eye on you from now on, so you don't cause trouble."

Ye Zhenzhen carefully explained, "I didn't do it on purpose."

After saying that, he quickly put on a smiling face.

Ye Zhenwen didn't say anything, but gently touched the spot where Ye Anbo had hit her, comforting Ye Zhenzhen.

Ye Zhenzhen continued, "We just happened to find a space at a street stall in Yunlin City, and it merged with the fragment. The place we are in now is the fragment. Uncle, can you think about how to use this place in the future?"

In fact, Ye Zhenzhen already had a preliminary idea in mind, but since the adults were all here, it was naturally not her turn to make the decision. She very naturally handed over the important responsibility of making the decision to her uncle, Ye Anbo.

Ye Anbo said to Ye Shiqing and Ye Zhenwen, "The three of us must first swear an oath to Heaven that we will not reveal that Zhen'er has this space."

After saying that, he looked at Ye Zhenzhen seriously and said, "Zhen'er, you mustn't tell anyone."

The three nodded.

After the oath was taken, Ye Anbo said to Ye Shiqing, "Second Uncle, let's take a look around first, and then think about what to do next."

Ye Shiqing nodded.

Ye Anbo said to Ye Zhenwen, "You two siblings haven't seen each other for a long time, you must have a lot to talk about. Stay here and chat together. Keep an eye on Zhen'er and don't let her out of your sight."

Ye Zhenzhen pouted in dissatisfaction.

Ye Zhenwen patted his sister's head reassuringly and nodded to Ye Anbo.

Just as Ye Shiqing and Ye Anbo were about to take off, Ye Zhenzhen stopped them.

Ye Zhenzhen handed the map she had drawn earlier in order to find the Heart Fragment to Ye Anbo, saying, "This is a map I drew earlier to make it easier to find the Heart Fragment. I didn't finish it. I drew it once and found it, so I stopped drawing it. Uncle, see if you can use it."

Ye Amber took the map and said, "Not bad, you've accomplished something worthwhile."

Ye Zhenzhen glared at Ye Anbo.

Ye Anbo smiled and glanced at his little niece before flying away, with Ye Shiqing following closely behind.

Ye Zhenwen said with a smile, "Don't be angry, your uncle has already flown away."

Ye Zhenzhen shook her head, looked at her brother, and said, "Brother, it's been more than a year since we last met. I miss you so much."

As she spoke, she clung to her brother's arm affectionately and shook it vigorously.

Ye Zhenwen showed no impatience whatsoever. He gently pinched his little sister's cheek and said, "Brother misses you too. Father, Mother, and your brother miss you very much, and the clansmen are also very worried about you."

Ye Zhenzhen awkwardly let go of her brother's arm and said, "I'm sorry, brother, I really didn't mean to make you worry."

Ye Zhenwen gently smoothed the stray hairs on his sister's forehead and said, "It's okay, I don't care about you. I know our Zhen'er has always been the most obedient."

Ye Zhenzhen began to ask about the family's situation over the past year.
