The bright Moonlight Stone is unlike the crimson glow outside; it is gentler and softer.

It also appears more serene.

Ye Xingyi did not immediately agree to Ye Jingcheng's proposal of negotiating an alliance with the Wan Family.

Instead, he hesitated for a moment before furrowing his brow and speaking:

"Patriarch, the Wan Family seems to have been targeted. Are you certain we want to ally with them at this moment?" Ye Xingyi evidently recalled the incident involving the Wan Family in the Desolate Secret Realm and suspected hidden secrets, likely involving Eight Desolates Sect descendants.

They are very likely being targeted by the Taiyi Sect.

It's even highly possible that other forces have their eyes on them too.

"Join forces! The less likely, the more necessary, and it can facilitate our spirit insect cultivation. Our clan's focus on spirit beast cultivation far surpasses that of spirit insects, but some spirit insects become more formidable than spirit beasts!" Ye Jingcheng spoke.

The Ye Clan's focus is in Taihang Commandery, while the Wan Family's is in Taiqing Commandery.

It inherently aligns with our strategy of distant alliances, nearby attacks.

The most critical insight from Ye Xuecang is that Eight Desolates Sect's Beast Wilderness is ostracized by the other Seven Desolates because they believe the Beast Wilderness ruined Eight Desolates Sect.

Ordinary people are unaware of the truth, but major sects surely know.

If they suspect the Wan Family are descendants of the Beast Wilderness, they won't believe the Ye Family are.

If they suspect the Wan Family are descendants of the Sword Wilderness, they'll certainly not suspect the Ye Family are.

Conversely, if relations with the Wan Family suddenly turn sour despite prior goodwill, that would be suspicious.

"Of course, communication is communication; regarding the Wan Family, we must maintain a certain distance. We can't act as we did with the Chu Family when aware the Wan Family is being targeted," Ye Jingcheng added.

Following this statement, Ye Xingyi remained puzzled, but Ye Jingcheng felt it wasn't appropriate to explain further.

The less known regarding Eight Desolates Sect, the better.

Many Ye Family Members would not betray their family.

However, at times, things can slip inadvertently.

Like with Master Tianfu towards him, he considered himself adept at emotional management, but showing a hint of caution could be noticed.

Master Tianfu seems not to bear any harmful intent towards him currently.

However, he must remain vigilant against the possibility that Master Tianfu aims to possess and live another life.

He isn't naive; in the Cultivation Realm, generally upon reaching Foundation Establishment, the Divine Soul gains initial strength, making possession possible.

It's consensually accepted that there's only one chance for possession per person.

Moreover, within the Cultivation Realm, those who perform possessions face severe resistance.

Nonetheless, secretly, many have become possessed.

After all, many High-Tier Cultivators, when facing unrelated beings or spirit bodies, can fail to maintain their true selves.

Even if they hold their ground temporarily, under the panic of nearing life's end, long-term stability isn't guaranteed.

Regarding Master Tianfu's possible genuine intent to nurture him, there exists a future when the inevitable end draws near day by day, wondering if he can persist.

Compared to other disciples of Master Tianfu, Ye Jingcheng undoubtedly is more suited as a possession target.

The Ye Clan's cultivators, who awaken the Beast Communication Pattern, install a self-destruct Soul Ban in their minds out of fear of possession, as losing the Beast Communication Pattern's discernment would be disastrous.

It's known that the Ye Family's Beast Communication Pattern at present only awakens in those with Ye bloodline.

However, possession would still retain the Ye bloodline.

Regarding why only Ye bloodline works, Ye Jingcheng isn't clear; perhaps Ye Xuecang knows, but currently, he hasn't the opportunity to ask.

At this moment, he even thought about what the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain truly is.

Ye Jingcheng, having lived two lives, honestly hasn't genuinely felt the sea's grandeur.

"Alright!" Despite further misgivings, Ye Xingyi still adhered to Ye Jingcheng's decisions, proving his wisdom as Patriarch.

Acknowledging his intellectual inferiority to Ye Jingcheng, naturally, he refrained from interference or obstruction.

"Additionally, the Wan Family may test us or even place secret agents, so we need to be cautious!" Ye Jingcheng pondered for a moment before supplementing.

His words reflect the notion the Wan Family might be investigating the Beast Wilderness; otherwise, why approach him, selling the Stone Spirit merely for a spirit insect duel.

Though the other side might not know the Stone Spirit's purpose, they are aware of its value.

Among the reasons are undoubtedly their cooperation in the Desolate Secret Realm and possibly probing Ye Jingcheng.

But distinguishing the descendants of the Beast Wilderness among the countless spirit beast Spirit Binders isn't easy.

The Wan Family desires to determine if Ye Family belongs to the Beast Wilderness, but among ordinary cultivators or Ye Family members, this knowledge is unattainable.

"Alright." Ye Xingyi nodded.

Ye Jingcheng ceased speaking, and Ye Xingyi withdrew from the room.

After Ye Xingyi exited, Ye Jingcheng resumed practicing the Taiqing Spirit Nurturing Skill.

The skill's secret technique unquestionably possesses a high tier.

After a session, Ye Jingcheng felt refreshed, his heart spirit peaceful, making his thinking clearer.

He even sensed his Divine Soul felt somewhat purified.

The sensation of lightness was indeed wondrous.

He sensed this Taiqing Spirit Nurturing Skill might benefit his breakthrough to the Purple Mansion as well.

Yet a calm Ye Jingcheng found himself doubting this secret technique again.

Given Master Tianfu's generous treatment, he must prepare comprehensively, in case this secret technique aims to facilitate possession.

Indeed, the purer the soul, the easier it is for possession.

Ye Jingcheng felt a headache akin to profound perplexity concerning Master Tianfu.
