Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Purple Gold Wings
After a feast of spiritual cuisine, everyone was in high spirits, their brows previously burdened by alchemy and artifact tasks now relaxed.
Even Ye Xingyu, who rarely spoke among his generation, began to offer some remarks.
"With your Thirteenth Aunt’s skills, we could open a restaurant in the future for the Ye Family!"
"Yes, Thirteenth Aunt, why don’t we open a restaurant for the Ye Family?" Ye Jingli was also delighted, his mouth greasy, and seemingly due to the abundant spiritual power, his whole body emitted a faint spiritual light.
"What are you saying? Restaurants are the business of the Mo Family!" Ye Xinghe glared at Ye Jingli from the side.
Ye Jingli bowed his head in silence.
He knew he had made a taboo mistake.
In the market, although you could sell anything, each family had different focal points.
The Tai Cang Xu Clan controlled the Earth Fire Hall of Taihang Market and dealt with the most valuable spirit plant cultivation, while the Qing Liu Mo Clan controlled the only two restaurants in Taihang Market and operated in array disc business.
The Buqing Li Clan was a new force specializing in alchemy, while the Xianyun Chu Clan excelled in artifact refining, and the Shanyue Chen Clan specialized in spirit talismans. The Lingyun Ye Family was known for spirit beasts.
Of course, the businesses of each Foundation Establishment family generally overlap somewhat, such as the Ye Family, which primarily sells spirit beasts but also sells spiritual elixirs and magical artifacts.
However, there is an unwritten rule of not surpassing another family’s main business.
For example, if the Ye Family wants to sell spirit pills, their prices and varieties cannot surpass those of the Li Family!
And in terms of the types and prices of spirit talismans, they cannot surpass the Chen Family.
Similarly, other families, even if they want to sell spirit beasts, their types and prices cannot surpass the Ye Family!
Regarding the Purple Mansion Clan’s businesses, the Ye Family and other Foundation Establishment families cannot interfere because they do not limit the alchemy and artifact refining business of the large Foundation Establishment families nor suppress it, so in exchange, the major families cannot encroach upon their exclusive industries.
This includes restaurants and the Earth Fire Hall.
Ye Xinghe made a remark without further elaboration, while only Ye Jingcheng looked at Ye Xinghe’s demeanor, seemingly expecting more to be said.
But it wasn’t spoken.
As the end approached, Ye Xinghe once again praised Ye Xinghong!
Encouraging Ye Xinghong to continue to delve deeply into spiritual cuisine.
After the spiritual cuisine, Ye Jingli, with a mournful face, pulled Ye Jingcheng aside.
"Jingcheng, do you think Uncle will hold a grudge against me later?" Ye Jingli expressed his dilemma.
He was now comfortable in the Ye Family Shop, refining artifacts with ease.
Daily spiritual stone income was quite good!
"You are most valued by Uncle, can you say something to him for me?"
"Don’t worry, Uncle isn’t that petty, but say fewer taboo things like this in the future, it’s better for you and the family. Remember what Uncle said when he first brought us here?"
"Listen more, watch more, talk less!" Ye Jingcheng supplemented.
Ye Jingli’s temperament was straightforward and fast-talking, someone with many thoughts.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have thought of customizing artifacts for spirit beasts!
But in the world of cultivators, one must be cautious of walls having ears, even hundreds or thousands of miles away, through divine sense!
Moreover, in this world that values strength, the overt is the face principle of the major families, but secretly it’s the most naked law of the jungle.
"Got it, Jingcheng. By the way, what about the matter Brother Liu mentioned last time?" Ye Jingli suddenly spoke again, his face full of anticipation.
Naturally, he was referring to the agreement from the last competition!
To use his custom-made artifact in exchange for spirit pills from Ye Jingcheng.
Without further ado, he pressed on the waist of his storage bag and spread his hand fully, revealing a set of metallic feather wings spiritual artifact.
This wing artifact was entirely golden and covered with feathers from the Purple Spirit Sparrow.
This pair of wings was clearly designed for the Red Flame Fox.
As a magical artifact with a powerful fireball skill, it attracts the most hatred in magical combat, and ordinary spirit armor is unsuitable for the Red Flame Fox.
Only these speed-enhancing flying wings are the most suitable!
It increased the mobility of the Red Flame Fox and made it difficult for enemies to control it.
"This artifact only requires the input of pure fire spiritual power, but compared to cultivators, demon beasts will have more difficulty applying the artifact, and need to be trained in advance!" Ye Jingli explained.
While Ye Jingcheng appeared indifferent and full of joy.
With the intelligence of the Red Flame Fox, there was naturally no problem at all.
"Thank you, Brother Liu!"
"No need to thank me, as long as you’re not dissatisfied with Brother Liu’s ability to only refine Tier One Middle-grade spiritual artifacts!" Ye Jingli replied.
Then he remembered something and spoke:
"Jingcheng, I’ve also designed a silver ring spiritual artifact for your Golden Scale Beast, when the spiritual power activates at the critical moment, it will turn into a small shield suitable for close combat, but it hasn’t been refined yet!"
"Mainly, refining the spirit beast’s artifact requires engraving several array discs, otherwise I would have finished refining it already!"
"No problem, there’s no rush, Brother Liu!" Ye Jingcheng expressed his gratitude with a smile.
Ye Jingli was evidently very dedicated, knowing that his tasks in the market were not light, the time spent refining his own artifacts was all saved in his spare time.
Then Ye Jingcheng also retrieved two bottles of Cyan Spirit Pill and two bottles of Spirit Nourishing Pill from the storage bag!
Each pill bottle contained a full five round and plump spirit pills!
Opening the bottle cap would reveal a rich spirit fragrance, and the entire pill bottle shimmered with a hint of dazzling spiritual marsh.
"Brother Liu, these are the Spirit Nourishing Pill and Cyan Spirit Pill, besides, your Cyan-Scaled Python can also compete with my Golden Scale Beast at leisure!" Ye Jingcheng suggested.
"Even if it’s just comparing speed or strength!"
Although the mouth says competition, Ye Jingcheng intended to create an opportunity to touch the Cyan-Scaled Python!
Injecting some treasure light can hasten the growth of the Cyan-Scaled Python.
He also understood what Ye Jingli truly wanted.
The other party was so earnest, Ye Jingcheng naturally wouldn’t let Ye Jingli down.
Ye Jingli nodded repeatedly; receiving the assurance, his dejection at the dining table vanished, and he began exuberantly describing the market, especially mentioning to Ye Jingcheng:
"Jingcheng, recently you should visit the market more often, there are quite a few good items at the stalls!"
Approaching the battle, many cultivators brought out temporarily unused treasures to exchange for genuinely advantageous spiritual objects.
The stalls, meanwhile, not only had loose cultivators, but many family disciples, unable to sell openly, yet wanting to earn more, would go to the stalls.
Thus the probability of finding good items far exceeded usual times.
Ye Jingcheng nodded, though his thoughts were nonchalant.
His recent task wasn’t light; Tier One High-Grade Spirit Pill wasn’t easy to refine.
The most crucial thing was his desire to quickly refine the advancement pill for the Red Flame Fox.
"Brother Liu, I have a jade talisman here, if Brother Liu encounters these kinds of spirit medicine, please help me buy a few portions!" Ye Jingcheng engraved the advancing spirit medicine for the Golden Scale Beast on a jade talisman and handed it to Ye Jingli.
The latter agreed repeatedly.
