Ye Qingfeng forms a Blood Contract and is trapped in a terrifying illusion where she witnesses the destruction of her family and herself by a powerful Demon Saint. Upon waking, she finds herself unharmed, realizing the illusion was a trial that awakened a Hidden Skill Divine Technique within her Red Phoenix Spirit Body. Her father and uncle are impressed but agree she must continue testing the array.

In the Celestial Dream Butterfly Valley, Ye Qingnian walked toward the depths of the valley under the watchful eyes of the others. Only when Ye Qingnian entered the valley entrance did Ye Jingcheng turn to look at Ye Qingfeng.

This single glance made Ye Qingfeng reflexively lower her head. She knew Ye Jingcheng had already guessed that she had taken it upon herself to bring Ye Qingnian here. However, Ye Jingcheng didn’t reprimand her. Since Ye Qingnian was soon to marry Wan Yulian, he needed to be far more vigilant; having him visit the Illusion Butterfly Valley was actually for the best.

The members of the Ye Family, having enjoyed the benefits of the Beast Communication Pattern, naturally had to bear the corresponding responsibility of keeping it a secret.

"Fourth Grand-Uncle, do you think you can communicate with it to slightly guide the Illusion Realm into coaxing the truth out of Qingnian?" Ye Jingcheng secretly sent a voice transmission.

The Illusion Array depended entirely on the Celestial Dream Butterfly. Controlling the Illusion Realm merely required communicating with it. But in the future, Ye Jingcheng wouldn’t always be around, which was why he asked Ye Xuefan to try communicating with it. If the latter could do so, it would save him the trouble of having to be present every single time.

Ye Xuefan nodded, his Divine Soul transmitting a thought. Before long, they could see Ye Qingnian’s face completely light up with joy.

Compared to Ye Qingfeng’s profound sorrow, Ye Qingnian was experiencing extreme elation. In the Illusion Realm, he was in the middle of his wedding. But things didn’t end well. During the wedding, Wan Yulian kept asking about his Beast Communication Pattern and his Cultivation Technique, leaving him both confused and anguished.

On one side was his family, and on the other was his beloved. The crux of the matter was that his family treated him well, but so did his beloved. Wan Yulian hadn’t crossed any major lines; she was simply too curious and kept probing him with questions.

In the end, Ye Qingnian had no choice but to enter into Seclusion, completely ignoring Wan Yulian’s bitter pleas.

As he went into Seclusion, a three-colored Spiritual Light emanated from his body, and soon after, he materialized within the Array. His brows were still furrowed. The Illusion Realm was so realistic that he felt as if he had just lived through that exact scene. It wasn’t until he saw Ye Jingcheng and the others that he realized it had all been an illusion.

But the difference was also obvious. Unlike Ye Qingfeng, who had to rely on her Spirit Body, Ye Qingnian could actually use his willpower to put up a slight resistance. Moreover, while his way of handling the situation wasn’t entirely perfect, he had at least protected the family.

"In the future, if possible, we should conduct the Communication Beast Awakening and Soul Injection within this Illusion Array," Ye Jingcheng said, looking at Ye Xuefan.

After testing it on the two of them, the results were quite good. Furthermore, they could even guide the direction of the Illusion Realm. It was far superior to the Ye Family’s previous Soul Capturing Illusion methods.

"It’s doable." Ye Xuefan nodded, but immediately added, "Jingcheng, I will refine a suitable Array Disc based on this Celestial Dream Butterfly’s innate Illusion Array. I’ll strive to ensure that by the time this Illusion Butterfly reaches Tier Five, the family won’t need to rely on it anymore."

The Celestial Dream Butterfly’s talent was no worse than that of the Golden-eyed Vermilion Bird. Once it became Tier Five, its offensive capabilities would be even more terrifying. Naturally, they couldn’t just leave it at the family estate to waste its potential forever. Especially if the Celestial Dream Butterfly could break through to Tier Five before the Ye Family entered the Earth Immortal Realm next time, the role it could play would be absolutely immense.

Hearing this, Ye Jingcheng also nodded in agreement. He wasn’t stubborn about the exact method; as long as the family’s younger generation could have an early rehearsal for their Heart Demon Tribulations, that was enough. It could also be considered a profound Heart Forging experience.

Suffering some emotional trauma within the Illusion Array was vastly better than encountering a deadly problem while trying to break through to the Purple Mansion or the Golden Core realms.

Meanwhile, in Chaofeng City.

The person in charge here was none other than Ye Xingxiao. She was the Vice Hall Master of the family’s Miscellaneous Affairs Hall. Although her main responsibility was the Clan Study Hall, she was quite renowned both within the family and across the Desert Sea. A powerful Female Cultivator would never remain in obscurity, no matter where she went.

At this moment, in a grand hall, Ye Qingfu and Ye Jing Hu were standing right beside Ye Xingxiao.

"Jing Hu, the Xu Family has been begging for a meeting and specifically requested a Golden Core Cultivator. It’s about time we see them. I just wonder what kind of treasure they have," Ye Xingxiao said as she glanced at the distant horizon, where the resplendent golden sun seemed to have exhausted most of its might, slowly descending into dusk.

"Uncle Jing Hu, it must be an incredible treasure, otherwise he wouldn’t have paid such a heavy price just to use the Ye Family’s Teleportation Array," Ye Qingfu chimed in from the side.

Nowadays, operating the Ye Family’s Teleportation Array just once cost around three thousand Spirit Stones. It could teleport more than twenty people at a time. However, the amount of Spirit Stones the Ye Family had collected from the Xu Family was far more than that. If the other party didn’t have some extraordinary treasure, there would be no reason for them to be this cautious.

"It seems they really kept it tightly under wraps. Even you, the Peak Master of the Yuanling Oasis, have no idea about it." A hint of curiosity surfaced in Ye Jing Hu’s eyes.

Since Ye Qingfu was capable enough to oversee the Yuanling Oasis, he naturally possessed considerable skills. Usually, if there was any sign of trouble or rumors going around, one only needed to ask Ye Qingfu to find out the truth. If it weren’t for the fact that Ye Qingfu’s cultivation level was somewhat lacking, he would have been a very strong contender for the position of the Ye Family Patriarch.

As a matter of fact, the moment Xu Haoceng of the Xu Family arrived in Chaofeng City, he had immediately requested to see the upper echelon of the Ye Family. It was just that Ye Xingxiao had deliberately stalled him for a while.

Xu Haoceng was merely a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, yet he had specifically asked to meet a Golden Core Cultivator. The Ye Family naturally had to suppress his ego for a bit, preventing him from demanding an exorbitant price later on.

"Aunt Xing Xiao, let’s just meet him in the side hall!" Ye Jing Hu subsequently arranged.

The group quickly finalized their plans and proceeded to receive Xu Haoceng in the side hall.

Later, inside the side hall.

The lingering scent of Sandalwood filled the air, extremely pleasant to the nose. The moment Xu Haoceng walked in, he immediately concluded that it was a Tier Three Spirit Fragrance.

A deep sense of envy couldn’t help but well up in his heart, and he couldn’t resist taking a few extra sniffs.

The actual benefit of Tier Three Sandalwood Smoke for a Cultivator’s Cultivation wasn’t very significant. In such settings, it was primarily used to ensure that there were no Concealment Cultivators hiding around, while also keeping the palace smelling fresh.
