[Ding~! A legendary prodigy has emerged within the family. Please, Host, pay close attention!]

Upon hearing this sound, Ye Daocang couldn't help but reveal a very satisfied smile.

This time's reward can be said to have triggered an explosive development within the family.

Time slowly passed, and everything unfolded just as Ye Daocang had envisioned. The Ye family's development was extremely rapid.

With the existence of the Dao Comprehension Chamber, coupled with the previously acquired Qi Refining Pills, centered around Ye Zhantian, Ye Changliu, Ye Wuqing, and others, cultivation levels began to soar dramatically.

In just half a month, nine members had reached the ninth level of innate cultivation, only one step away from breaking through to the Grandmaster realm.

This would have been unimaginable in the past.

This shows just how valuable the Perfect-grade Qi Refining Pills are.

Additionally, the remaining mid-high level members also began to soar in cultivation. Even the weakest had reached the mid-stage of innate, with more than ten reaching the seventh level of innate or above!

In just half a month, the overall strength of the Ye family had increased severalfold.

Meanwhile, news had arrived from Jun City that the Ye family's recommended County Governor had initially been strongly opposed by the Jun City authorities.

Because they were concerned about the prestige of the Leino Army commander, naturally, they were unwilling to give face to the Ye family.

However, the Leino Army commander was quite sensible. Upon seeing the two Divine Crossbows and the gifts offered by the Ye family, he directly expressed approval of the new County Governor.

Soon, the Ye family secured the position of County Governor in Fengling County.

As for the Zichuan Wang family, now with the turbulent situation, they were too weak to manage the downfall of their branch in Fengling.

However, a new piece of news cast a shadow over the Ye family.

The latest news was that on the side of the Purple Forest Sect, Yang Feng had awakened the Lingti Bailing body upon breaking through the innate realm, shocking the entire Purple Forest Sect.

They even summoned the sect master out of seclusion.

Soon, Yang Feng was confirmed as a seed candidate, to be cultivated as a priority.

When this news reached back, all major factions aware of Fengling County's affairs immediately began to distance themselves from the Ye family.

Apparently, compared to the Purple Forest Sect, the Ye family's strength, even though it had multiplied several times, was still insufficient.

But Ye Daocang remained somewhat indifferent, not too worried.

According to his knowledge, within the Purple Forest Sect, only one secluded ancestor might have reached the Lingqiao realm, and the sect master was rumored to have always been lingering around the Grandmaster's great perfection!

However, Ye Daocang had no time to care; all his energy was focused on the Ye family's development.

One day, the members completed their meeting as usual, and as they were leaving, Ye Daocang called out to Ye Zhantian.

"Elder Zhantian, you haven't been looking well lately. Has something happened?"

Ye Daocang looked at him with concern and asked.

Ye Zhantian was momentarily stunned, seeing Ye Daocang's concerned expression, and felt a warmth in his heart.

"Patriarch, it's nothing major, just a minor matter within my own family!"

Upon hearing Ye Zhantian's explanation, Ye Daocang first nodded, about to give instructions, but suddenly, a thought struck him.

"Oh? What is it? Can you tell me about it?"

Upon hearing Ye Daocang's question, Ye Zhantian took a deep breath and then smiled bitterly.

"It's not a big deal, just about my youngest son, Ye Chen. Two years ago, didn't he become a disciple of the Zhenwu Sect? But because of Yang Feng's reasons, coupled with the Purple Forest Sect's great power, and Ye Chen's lack of cultivation aptitude, the Zhenwu Sect was worried about bringing trouble upon themselves, so they found an excuse to expel him from the sect!"

"I thought of letting him relax for a few days, then assigning him some family matters, so he could handle management later. But I don't know what this boy is thinking; he seems to have an obsession with cultivation but is simply unwilling!"

This was essentially the family's normal pattern. Many subordinates with mediocre aptitude, after reaching adulthood, were almost all assigned to various places to manage local affairs.

The Ye family's development was not limited to Fengling County; dozens of surrounding towns also had branches, which is the current norm for family development on the Cangmang Continent!

After hearing this, Ye Daocang nodded slightly, not particularly troubled by it.

The Purple Forest Sect was powerful; even people from the Jun City authority had to give face, after all, the Jun City faction did not have any Lingqiao-level experts stationed.

Other similar places, like the Zhenwu Sect, had strongest members only at the Grandmaster level, naturally unwilling to offend the Purple Forest Sect for the sake of an average aptitude disciple, to avoid bringing trouble upon themselves.

Originally, if Ye Daocang had asked further, he probably wouldn't have pursued it.

However, Ye Zhantian's son, Ye Chen's situation, made him think a little.

He considered for a moment, then said to Ye Zhantian, "Alright, it's partly our fault for the Ye family causing him this. How about you call him over, let me see, and see if I can enlighten him!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhantian nodded silently.

"Fine, sigh. In the end, it's still this boy himself not being diligent. It's no one's fault!"

Ye Daocang smiled faintly, "That may not be the case. Maybe the Zhenwu Sect just won't teach him!"

Ye Zhantian didn't understand why, but still went down.

Soon, a young man dressed in a blue robe, about eighteen years old, was brought in by Ye Zhantian.

Ye Daocang could easily see that the young man had a heroic spirit in his brows; his gaze seemed calm and ancient, but contained a natural arrogance.

"Junior Ye Chen, I salute the Patriarch!" The youth greeted Ye Daocang with a bow.

It was clear that he respected Ye Daocang a lot; many juniors in the Ye family regarded him as a god-like figure.

Ye Daocang waved his hand, indicating that there was no need for formalities.

Then, he directly activated the Eye of Insight of his Chaos Divine Eye, looking at Ye Chen.

[Ye Chen: Refining Body, seventh layer of cultivating the Five Organs realm, born with Sword God, able to master any sword-related techniques. In the future, he will be immortal and surely become a great figure. However, at birth, he was confused by the impure energy of the mortal world, causing a natural aversion to sword cultivation. Once he formally contacts a sword, he will unleash his potential and soar to great heights!]

The refining body ninth layer is divided into: refining skin, refining flesh, refining tendons, refining bones, refining blood, refining heart, refining Five Organs, refining Six Viscera, refining the whole body!

Only after completing these nine refinements can one birth true strength and break through to the post-natal realm.
