Chapter 23: The Jade Sword

Ye Mingyuan sat in the first place, and Ye Fu stood behind Ye Mingyuan, looking like an old servant.

Ye Mingyuan glanced at Ye Cheng who was sitting at the head of the city below without a trace, since Ye Cheng broke out and killed hundreds of soldiers in the City Lord's Mansion, he had never had time to meet this son properly, or even he himself hadn't thought about how to face this son who suddenly became so powerful.

Looking at Ye Cheng, who was calm and straight, Ye Mingyuan couldn't help nodding slightly in his heart, just with this momentum, he already had the atmosphere of being a human being.

Ye Mingyuan summarized the situation of the previous year on it, but Ye Cheng was drowsy when he listened, and if he had time to listen to this, it was better to go back and practice the knife again.

Half an hour later, everyone finally walked towards the Ye family ancestral hall under the leadership of Ye Mingyuan.

Most of the stewards here are people who are related to the Ye family, but they are not qualified to enter the real ancestral hall, and they are just waiting in the hall outside.

In the end, only a dozen descendants of the Ye family finally stepped into the Ye family ancestral hall.

peers, except for Ye Cheng and Ye Hong, there is only Ye Li.

According to the rules of the family, Ye Cheng should be regarded as Ye Li's cousin, Ye Li's father is Ye Mingyuan's cousin, but he died very early.

The ancestral hall is full of tablets, stacked layer upon layer until it is extremely high, and the incense is filled in the high place of the house, condensed and not dispersed, which is very miraculous.

"Shang Fang ancestors, ancestors and ancestors, Ye Mingyuan, the sixteenth generation head of the Ye family, on the occasion of the Qingming Festival in the year of Bingshen, led the descendants of the Ye family to worship, hoping that the ancestors would bless the descendants, and everything would ......go smoothly."

Ye Mingyuan read the sacrificial text, Ye Cheng followed behind him and led everyone to salute, this set of etiquette has been repeatedly practiced several times a few days before the Qingming Festival, this world has great respect for the power of ghosts and gods, and the family sacrifice cannot make a mistake.

"Ye Cheng stepped forward"

After the worship ceremony, Ye Mingyuan shouted in a deep voice.

Next is Ye Cheng's coming-of-age ceremony.

Ye Chen knelt on the yellow futon, and the maid brought the glass basin to wash her hands, and sprinkled a few drops of unknown liquid on her body with willow branches.

During the whole process, Ye Cheng knelt on the futon and did not move.

Ye Fu walked up the stairs, the Ye Jialing card was divided into several layers, he slowly walked up to the high place, and when he came down, he solemnly held a blue-green long sword in both hands, and his face was extremely serious.

Ye Cheng raised his hands above his head, took the long sword, stretched out his hands, and held the sword in front of his chest

"Today, there is Ye Cheng, the son of the Ye family, who is sixteen years old, can inherit the family business, the ancestors and ancestors are on top, and protect the prosperity of my Ye family......"

Ye Mingyuan read the sacrificial text again, and his voice echoed in the empty ancestral hall, but Ye Cheng's attention was completely off at this time.

"There is a source point!!"

Ye Cheng was shocked and stared at the long sword lying horizontally on his chest.

The sword is three feet long, the whole body is dark green, and the place where the palm touches is warm for a while

"It's not metal, it's jade, it's a jade sword"

The dark green long sword was painted with symbols like Zhong Dingwen, and what was even more strange was that these runes covered with the sword body did not have a trace of dents, but were hidden under the jade sword as if they were the lines of the jade itself.

On the small frame of the Northern Spirit, the source points jumped again, and Ye Cheng could feel that the jade sword contained a large number of potential points, but the absorption speed of the Northern Spirit was extremely slow.

Now Ye Cheng hoped that Ye Mingyuan would think about it for a long time, but after half a quarter of an hour, Ye Mingyuan's voice stopped abruptly, and the jade sword was once again put back to the top of the spirit card by Ye Fu.

"It's a pity that only five points were absorbed"

Ye Cheng was a little regretful, at this time the festival was over, and everyone also withdrew from the ancestral hall, Ye Cheng looked at the jade sword at the top shrouded in incense, a little unwilling, the jade sword is obviously a similar heirloom of the Ye family, even if he is the eldest son of the Ye family, it is extremely difficult to get in touch with it.

"But there is finally a way back, if the source is really urgent, it can't be managed so much"

............

"After the family sacrifice, Cheng'er will officially take over the family's property, you are all Cheng'er's elders, if there is anything wrong with him in the future, don't be polite to him" Ye Mingyuan slowly spoke on the first seat

Everyone got up and bowed their hands, saying that they didn't dare, but in their hearts they secretly said that the play was coming.

The eyes of everyone below flickered, Ye Mingyuan didn't care, and two figures flashed from behind Ye Mingyuan to salute.

"Ye Shan, Cheng'er's business affairs will be checked by you, Zhao Yingchen, Cheng'er's safety will be handed over to you in the future"

"Yes," the two men bowed

Ye Shan is about thirty-five or sixteen years old, dressed in a blue robe, dressed as a bookkeeper, and behaves calmly.

Zhao Yingchen was dressed in a black suit, his muscles were bulging, and his eyes were bright.

Ye Cheng looked at the two subordinates that his father stuffed himself, he had no image of these two people, and he didn't pay attention to anything other than looking for clues about gods and demons all these years, which also caused Ye Cheng to have no information about these two people at all.

"Ye Shan, isn't that the person who wants to pick up Ye Fu's housekeeper, and he actually sent it to Young Master Cheng......"

"And Zhao Yingchen, isn't it rumored that he was going to be promoted to the deputy commander of the Protector Army, how could he have sent it......"

"The master is really ready to hand over the shift this time......"

Two seats behind Ye Cheng, Ye Li's face was gloomy, but he regained his calm appearance in a blink of an eye, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but the jealousy in the depths of his eyes could not be suppressed.

These two people are both literate and martial, they are all top talents in the Ye family, but they were in charge of the affairs of the entire Ye family before, Ye Mingyuan actually sent these two people to Ye Cheng's side so easily.

"Damn, damn it, why, just because this waste is the firstborn"

At this moment, Ye Mingyuan seemed to inadvertently glance at Ye Li below, Ye Li's back was suddenly soaked in cold sweat, and he quickly lowered his head.

Ye Cheng looked at this scene thoughtfully, and the corners of his mouth twitched

"It looks like my dad sent me two terrible people."

............

In the courtyard of Songhe's residence, the fragrance of tea is curling, and next to the stone table are Ye Shan and Zhao Yingchen, who have just arrived under their hands.

“...... In terms of industry, the clan allocated one Tieying Mine Cave to the young master, five in Fang City, and six in Silk Village......"

Ye Shan was obviously extremely familiar with it, and he didn't hurry to give Ye Cheng a reply

Ye Cheng nodded, with this bearing, no wonder he was valued by his father and sent to assist him.

"I don't care about the industry now, everything is as usual, you are more familiar than me in this regard, and you really have something that can't be solved and report to me"

"As for you, just pick some good seedlings to practice, I don't need to be guarded for the time being."

"Yes," Zhao Yingchen responded

With his current skills, the entire Ye family may be a little threatening to him by the elder who has lived in seclusion for many years, and according to the aura revealed that night, there should be no more than twenty masters in the entire Beining City Condensation Realm.

"By the way, without affecting the operation of the industry, how much silver can I withdraw now"

Ye Shan flickered, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, and he wanted to take the money from the account before he took over the industry, this Young Master Ye Cheng, it was really ......

But it didn't show it on his face

"The mine is newly opened, and there are more silver taels that need to be invested, and at most 5,000 taels can only be transferred, and any more will affect the normal operation."

"Five thousand taels is five thousand taels, send it to my room today, I have an urgent need"

Waving back the two, Ye Cheng returned to the room to cultivate Xuanyang's internal qi, he had just broken through last night, and he still had to be skilled before he could use it against the enemy.

Outside the house, Ye Shan couldn't help but sigh, it stands to reason that he was photographed by the head of the family to assist the young master, and he should be very important to himself, but thinking of the appearance of the eldest young master shaking his hands in charge, he hesitated a little

"What do you think of our eldest young master?"

"Very strong, undetectably strong, even more terrifying than the old Ye Lian family" Zhao Yingchen's eyes were extremely bright, and bursts of heat rose from him, making Ye Shan take a few steps back

"What do you mean?"

"The young master should be a master of the inner family, it won't be wrong, I have only felt this sense of oppression in the entire Ye family."

Seeing Ye Shan's puzzled face, Zhao Yingchen continued

"Do you still remember the incident in the Ye family's silk village two years ago, that kind of ghost thing that can't be swords, ordinary people have no way at all, only the masters of the inner family can have the strength to fight"

Zhao Yingchen's eyes were extremely bright

Ye Shan's face turned pale, two years ago, there were constantly men missing in the Ye family's silk village, and now he can't forget the scene of that night, a big hole was broken in his chest, and his intestines were left on the ground, but that person still rushed into the Protector Army and slashed left and right, unaffected.

"Ordinary people who started their internal qi before the age of 30 are extremely good martial arts geniuses, but just now when I stayed by the young master's side, it was like sitting by the fireball, and the young master's cultivation has reached a level that I can't understand."

He was extremely sensitive to his internal qi, and the terrifying aura that was about to ignite his qi and blood alone made him dare not resist.

"Brother Shan, I advise you to assist the young master well, you don't practice martial arts, you don't understand the horror in it"

After thinking about it, Zhao Yingchen whispered in Ye Shan's ear

"Let me tell you the news, just a few days ago, the young master blocked the city gate alone and killed hundreds of cavalry from the City Lord's Mansion."

"This ......"

Ye Shan was stunned, killing hundreds of cavalry by himself, could Ye Cheng still sit in Ye Mansion safely?

Zhao Yingchen patted Ye Shan on the shoulder, and walked away by himself, leaving only Ye Shan with a stunned face, stuck in place.

Ye Cheng naturally didn't know Ye Shan's thoughts, he was now planning the black market.

So far, I have only two martial arts in my hands, but as long as the source point of the Beiling small frame is enough, it can be improved without limits, and it is a waste not to make good use of it.

"Although Xuanyang Gong is strong, it consumes too many source points, and now it is completely impossible to improve, and the only way to improve your strength now is to superimpose other low-level martial arts to achieve qualitative change with quantitative change!"

The black market is just two days away, and the silver is plentiful, and it's time to turn it into strength.
