Although there was dissatisfaction, Ye Feng deliberately spread rumors within the family about Ye Chen being a "Lick Spirit" at the Silver Moon Market.

  However, most of the family members didn't believe it.

  The two female cultivators Ye Chen brought back were both stunningly beautiful.

  How could someone who was a "Lick Spirit" win the hearts of such high-level female cultivators?

  Moreover, Ye Chen had fearlessly argued for a spot in the Qingyun Sect, undeterred by the family head's authority.

  While everyone thought Ye Chen had angered the family head, they actually agreed with his actions deep down.

  After all, with Ye Chen's father dead, he would inevitably be marginalized within the family.

  For Ye Chen, obtaining the Qingyun Token was his only chance.

  Therefore, Ye Chen must be a smart person.

  How could such a smart person be a "Lick Spirit"?

  How could he possibly give away the spot he risked offending the family head to obtain?

  They might believe it if he sold it.

  So, no one in the family believed Ye Chen's Second Uncle.

  Even the Ye family head didn't believe it.

  He looked at Ye Chen with indifference: "Take out the Qingyun Token and leave now!"

  As the family head, everyone must listen to him.

  Otherwise, how could he lead the family in the future?

  Under everyone's gaze, Ye Chen sighed helplessly.

  Ye Chen hadn't expected the family head to take him to the Qingyun Sect.

  Although it was likely just to make connections, taking him along as well.

  But the problem was, he really couldn't produce it.

  Ye Chen looked towards the direction of the Qingyun Sect, pondering when Elder Gu Yunyun of the Sword Peak would arrive.

  If she came tomorrow, he feared he might be beaten to death by the family head on the spot.

  But this situation couldn't be concealed any longer.

  "Grandfather, I did give the Qingyun Token away..."

  As Ye Chen's words fell, the scene suddenly quieted.

  Everyone looked at Ye Chen with extremely strange expressions.

  Ye Chen actually gave the Qingyun Token away?

  Was Ye Chen crazy?

  That was a spot to enter the Qingyun Sect.

  Could Ye Chen really be a "Lick Spirit"?

  But who would give away their future like that?

  Impossible.

  There must be some other reason, right?

  "You gave it to that female cultivator from this morning?"

  Second Uncle couldn't help but ask.

  Ye Chen nodded in acknowledgment.

  This was something that could easily be found out, so he didn't bother to hide it.

  Second Uncle was furious: "I offered you spirit stones to buy it, and you wouldn't sell."

  "Yet you gave it away just because an outsider said a few words."

  "Do you even consider yourself part of the Ye family?"

  Second Uncle was truly angry.

  That spot should have been his son Ye Feng's.

  Hearing this, Ye Chen immediately waved his hand: "Second Uncle, you've misunderstood. How could I not consider myself part of the Ye family?"

  "But I really had no choice."

  "You heard it this morning too, if Ruoxin doesn't become a disciple of the Qingyun Sect, her fate will be extremely tragic."

  "And Sun Ruoxin has long been infatuated with me. She said once she reaches the Foundation Establishment stage, she will become my Dao companion."

  "Sun Ruoxin's talent is higher than mine, and she is more likely to achieve Foundation Establishment. If she becomes my Dao companion in the future, it would be equivalent to her being part of our Ye family."

  "This is more beneficial than harmful to the Ye family."

  The surrounding family members were dumbfounded by Ye Chen's expnation.

  Ye Chen's reasoning was a bit absurd.

  Someone sells a sob story, casually mentions becoming your Dao companion at the Foundation Establishment stage, and you believe it?

  Look around Qingyun City, which female cultivator would choose a male cultivator weaker than herself as a Dao companion?

  If Sun Ruoxin really reaches Foundation Establishment, she would never look at you again.

  If you dared to bring it up, she might sp you to death on the spot.

  Looking into Ye Chen's eyes, there seemed to be a clear sense of foolishness.

  The family members now completely believed the rumors within the family.

  Even the Qingyun Token could be tricked away with a few words.

  If Ye Chen isn't a "Lick Spirit," what is he?

  ...

  "Enough..."

  The family head's angry voice echoed through the hall, and the pressure of the Foundation Establishment stage was released, instantly making everyone in the hall tremble with fear.

  The might of the Foundation Establishment stage was truly terrifying.

  The family head stared directly at Ye Chen: "Where is she?"

  The Qingyun Sect's spot was very important.

  The Ye family had only had two of these in so many years.

  How could they let an outsider take it so easily?

  They must catch the person.

  Daring to deceive the Ye family out of a spot, they must be killed!

  However, Ye Chen shook his head and said, "Ruoxin took the spot and went to the Qingyun Sect immediately. She has a flying boat, and I estimate she's already there."

  Ye Chen knew Sun Ruoxin too well.

  She wouldn't care about his life or death.

  Once she got the spot, she would only fear that deys might cause complications.

  Even if it was in the middle of the night, she would rush to the Qingyun Sect to complete the procedures and settle everything.

  ...

  Hearing this, the Ye family head's anger intensified.

  There was even a hint of killing intent mixed in.

  After giving Ye Chen a few gnces, the Ye family head withdrew his gaze: "We'll discuss this matter when I return!"

  "Ye Tian, let's go!"

  The family members all heard the coldness in the family head's voice.

  Clearly, Ye Chen's fate would be extremely miserable.

  However, Ye Chen's alchemy techniques were profound, so his cultivation wouldn't be crippled.

  But he would likely be imprisoned by the family, becoming an alchemy machine for life.

  Many family members secretly warned their children.

  See?

  When you grow up, never be a "Lick Spirit."

  Because "Lick Spirits" meet bad ends.

  ...

  Ye Chen also guessed how the family would handle him.

  After all, he had alchemy techniques to rely on.

  The family wouldn't waste that.

  So Ye Chen admitted it calmly.

  But he didn't know when that Sword Peak Elder would arrive.

  Could she hurry up?

  Waiting online, urgent!

  Suddenly, no one looked at Ye Chen again.

  Having completely angered the family head, Ye Chen had no chance left.

  Standing behind the family head, Ye Tian watched as the family head tossed out a flying boat, preparing to leave with Ye Tian.

  Before boarding the flying boat, Ye Tian looked at Ye Chen with a condescending smile: "Little Seven, don't sck off at home. Make me some top-grade pills."

  "Top-grade Essence Cultivation Pills would be great. If I have those, I can open doors in the sect."

  The family head gnced at Ye Chen, his eyes devoid of any emotion: "He will. Focus on your cultivation."

  The family head's attitude said it all.

  Ye Chen's fate was sealed.

  As the flying boat ascended, Ye Tian was full of vigor.

  Ye Chen himself wasn't too nervous.

  He just felt like shouting, "I've bled for the family!"

  But before Ye Chen could speak, a terrifying aura suddenly descended upon the pce.

  The family head's body froze, his face changing dramatically.

  "May I ask which Dao friend has come to visit?"

  The family members were surprised by the family head's reaction.

  The family head was at the Foundation Establishment stage, yet he seemed a bit panicked?

  The next moment, a red figure stepped into the hall.

  "Gu Yunyun of the Qingyun Sect!"

  A slightly zy, slightly hoarse, and somewhat seductive voice sounded.

  Gu Yunyun?

  Hearing this name, gasps echoed throughout the family.

  Even the Ye family head immediately nded the flying boat and saluted: "Greetings, Dao Friend Gu!"

  "Dao Friend Gu, your visit is an honor. Please take a seat!"

  No one in the Ye family knew why Gu Yunyun had come.

  Except for Ye Chen.

  And as Ye Chen looked at her stunning figure in the red robe and her captivating face, his eyes revealed a look of joy.

  Not because he was infatuated.

  But because Ye Chen's system had issued a prompt...
