"Haha, I congratulate Fellow Daoist Ye on his victory. I believe that your daughter will be able to successfully stimulate the blood of the Heavenly Phoenix under the spiritual light of the Wutong tree, and then be nurtured by the clan. She will rise smoothly on the path to immortality and may even be lucky enough to ascend to the realm of true immortals."

Shui Lao's wrinkled face was covered with a smile as he spoke.

Taoist nun Xuan Jing and the white-haired young man also congratulated Ye Hong, and their words of flattery were no less than those of Shui Lao.

In such a respectful atmosphere, Ye Hong suddenly smiled happily, unable to control his emotions, and responded enthusiastically.

He was not the kind of person who would get carried away by being praised by others. The reason he was happy was that he gave his daughter the opportunity to bathe in the spiritual light of the Wutong tree.

At this time, an old woman with a horse face flew over lightly. Her aura of a Void Refinement Stage was not concealed at all, and instantly alarmed Ye Hong and others.

"Hong'er greets Aunt Hua..." Ye Hong's expression changed and he said with a bow.

"We're honored to meet you, senior." Shui Lao and the others did not dare to be negligent and clasped their fists one after another.

Qi Yuan looked at the horse-faced old woman's vague gaze on him, and his thoughts suddenly turned, and then he greeted her respectfully.

Hua Gu was ordered to come and invite this cultivator who practiced the Reversed Five Elements Art, but she did not speak at the first time. Instead, she said to Ye Hong:
"Yes, you have obtained the qualification today, and Yun Nian will have the opportunity to stimulate the blood of the Heavenly Phoenix. This is some of the relevant experience I have collected, and I will sort it out for the little girl to comprehend."

As she spoke, she flipped her skinny hand and a silver jade slip fell down.

"Ye Hong will always remember the great kindness that Aunt Hua has shown to this younger generation." Ye Hong held the silver jade slip in both hands and said from the bottom of his heart.

Hua Gu nodded slightly, her eyes quickly swept through the crowd, and finally stopped at Qi Yuan, then she looked him up and down and said, "Qi Yuan? Our master wants you to come over..."

What is so special about Qi Yuan that he could be invited by the head of the Ye family?
The three Shui brothers were slightly stunned and looked at the person involved in disbelief.

A strange light flashed across Ye Hong's eyes, and then they returned to normal.

"A junior would like to ask, my cultivation is weak, I wonder what important matter Master Ye has invited me for?" Qi Yuan did not agree on the spot, but asked symbolically.

Aunt Hua responded calmly: "How can an outsider easily understand the master's thoughts? Just follow me and I will ensure that you return safely."

Now that things have come to this, it will be difficult to leave the Ye family without agreeing.

"Well, please lead the way, senior." Qi Yuan hesitated for a moment and agreed immediately.

Since the Ye family took the initiative to invite him, it means they came for the issue of the five elements power.

We'll make a decision based on the circumstances later.

Upon hearing this, Hua Gu immediately said "hmm", ignored Ye Hong and the others, turned around and walked slowly towards the depths of the Ye family.

Qi Yuan nodded slightly to Ye Hong and the others, patted his sleeves, and followed them decisively.

The two of them quickly moved out of the Ruby Square, stepped into the exquisite corridor, and then passed through eight magnificent palaces and five huge circular arches.

Finally we arrived at a palace with black as the main theme.

The width of the hall is more than 20 to 30 feet, and there are six thick round logs standing in it, supporting the palace canopy above.

Fir and citron are sacred trees.

This is a rare sacred wood outside, but it was used to build the palace. It must be thousands of years old.

So grand! Qi Yuan's dark pupils condensed slightly, thinking that he had finally seen a little bit of the heritage of the True Spirit Family. Then he turned his eyes and fell on the hundreds of oil lamps on both sides, and looked at them carefully.

The lamp is about the size of a palm, round in shape, bronze in color, and nothing special about it.

However, the lamp oil burned in it is taken from the resin of the blue jacaranda ironwood, and is blended with more than a dozen precious spiritual materials, so the cost is also quite high.

"The master of the house is meeting guests. You wait here and don't wander around. Otherwise, if you accidentally trigger the restriction and are killed, you can't blame anyone." Hua Gu said in a stern tone.

The next second, her figure disappeared.

Qi Yuan blinked. He looked around the hall and saw that except for the main seat, which had a dark golden wooden chair carved with a phoenix and cloud pattern, there was no other place to sit.

Are you not going to entertain him seriously?

There was no place to sit, let alone taste the spiritual tea, so I could only stand there and wait.

While he was standing there, a stick of incense time had passed.

During this time, no servants came in, as if the people in the hall had been forgotten.

Suddenly, a fragrant breeze blew, and a green light flashed and fell on the dark golden wooden chair in the main seat, and then a slender figure appeared.

The woman was wearing an emerald green dress with gold patterns, and her oval face exuded a mature charm. Her black hair was tied up high, and she wore a glittering pearl hairpin on her bun.

Under the delicate black eyebrows are a pair of majestic phoenix eyes. Although they are piercing and bright, they are more of a cold light of a superior, giving others a heavy sense of oppression.

At the same time, he exuded the aura of a late Void Refinement Stage, instantly raising the majesty of the person in power, making people dare not look him in the face.

For a moment, neither of the two people in the hall spoke a word, and the atmosphere became eerily quiet.

I guess she is Ye Ying's mother?
Qi Yuan looked at the young woman in the emerald green dress with deep eyes and a calm demeanor. He knew that these high-ranking monks did not like being stared at, so he moved away and said in a deep voice:

"Junior Qi Yuan meets Senior Ye..."

"Oh! How do you know that my last name is Ye, and not some high-level cultivator from outside who invaded the Ye family and stole treasures?"

The young woman in the emerald green dress asked back with interest.

Qi Yuan responded in a warm tone: "I have seen Senior Ye's demeanor at the fighting competition, so I immediately recognized Senior Ye's figure in my mind."

Ye Yan smiled and did not pursue the issue, because she had to do something serious first, which was to control the person in front of her. Suddenly, her narrow almond eyes flashed with a strange yellow light, and she said softly:
"You look me in the eyes."

When Qi Yuan heard this, he raised his head for some unknown reason and looked into the yellow eyes of the young woman in the emerald green dress. Suddenly, he felt a strong sense of drowsiness in his soul...

Then, a cool and clear feeling came from the depths of his soul, instantly diluting the drowsiness and making him wake up again.

The art of capturing souls!

If his soul had not reached the late stage of the Refining Void realm, the other party would have probably succeeded.

With the help of the white mist emitted by the Nascent Soul every day to nourish his spirit, method and body, and the Dayan Jue, Qi Yuan's soul has always been one major realm higher than that of the cultivators of the same level.

Needless to say, his magic power is great, and he can kill a cultivator in the early stage of the Void Refining Stage with all his strength. However, his physical body is not outstanding because he has never practiced the relevant magic formula before. (End of this chapter)
