Despite the passage of time, the rain still poured heavily.

The dark clouds in the sky remained oppressive, like a black stone pressing down on everyone's chest.

It was suffocatingly oppressive.

Upon hearing Ye Jingcheng's words, Jin Zongliang flew directly from the Array atop Cyan Willow Mountain.

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Jin Zongliang's eyes immediately widened.

The moment these words were spoken, the Purple Mansion's pressure fell entirely on the Ye Family.

Ye Jingcheng naturally bore the brunt, but at this moment, his eyes were defiant, showing no hint of submission.

At this moment, he was not just Ye Jingcheng; he represented the Ye Family. The Ye Family could weaken, but this moment's dignity could not be lost in the slightest.

Ye Jingcheng did not continue speaking.

Instead, he allowed Jin Zongliang to release his pressure.

His body trembled, for the gap between Purple Mansion and Foundation Establishment was too vast, and Jin Zongliang was no ordinary Purple Mansion; even Ye Haicheng fell short in comparison.

However, after some time, Jin Zongliang finally withdrew his pressure, and his aura weakened significantly.

"Explain in detail?" Jin Zongliang continued to inquire.

But he did not allow the Ye Family members to enter the Array.

The Beast Tide stirred by the Jin Family Ancestor was a burden they could not bear.

That was why he was so tense.

Yet Ye Jingcheng still did not respond.

This scene immediately angered Jin Zongliang!

"Do not let me discover you are a Demon Race spy!"

"If I were a spy, do you think Master Tianfu's judgment is flawed?" Ye Jingcheng finally spoke.

And with just this sentence, Jin Zongliang's momentum instantly dissipated.

It was as if he had delivered a series of punches, only to be subdued by a single move from Ye Jingcheng, yet Ye Jingcheng was merely a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

But Ye Jingcheng's words forced him into deep thought.

Indeed, Master Tianfu appeared at the Ye Family Tavern and warned Kong Yulong, also cautioning Jin Yutang at the time not to disturb the Ye Family, which already said a lot.

Moreover, now that the Beast Tide has swept through the entire Ye Family, this also indicated that the Ye Family had not hidden their strength.

For a Purple Mansion Clan that had just broken through, to claim they possessed a Secret Treasure from the Eight Desolate Beast Wilderness seemed too far-fetched.

If they truly possessed such a treasure, they would have already soared to prominence, potentially becoming a Golden Core Clan.

Of course, it was also possible that they had already offered the Secret Treasure to Master Tianfu.

But in any case, the Ye Family already stood in an invincible position.

Meanwhile, the Jin Family had to consider how to fend off the Beast Tide.

The clans of the Taihang Commandery held the power of feudal lords, and thus must bear the calamity of the Beast Tide.

The Ye and Chu Families were already gone, and unsurprisingly, the Xu Family should be about the same.

This also meant that the main force against the Beast Tide now fell to the Jin and Kong Families.

If they wished to avoid this outcome, they had no choice but to withdraw from the Taihang Commandery.

For the Jin and Kong Families, who had schemed for so long, this was naturally unacceptable.

"Master Tianfu went to Lingyun Peak?" Jin Zongliang began to shift the topic, while over there, Jin Yutang tactfully opened the Array.

Allowing the Ye Family members to enter Cyan Willow Mountain.

Entering Cyan Willow Mountain meant true safety for everyone.

As for the mortals, they could only continue migrating toward Cyan Willow Lake.

The matter of the Beast Tide had been long-standing in the Taihang Commandery, so those mortals were well aware, even if they had grievances, there was nothing they could do.

"Brother Ye, did our family ancestor truly go?" Unlike Jin Zongliang's arrogance, Jin Yutang was much more amiable.

It was almost like the first time the two of them met to discuss cooperation.

Ye Jingcheng did not react, his face still very amicable.

However, both of them knew that the former state could never be restored.

The Jin Family's goodwill and convenience in the Desolate Secret Realm could no longer be extended.

After all, this time, they had wanted to refuse the Ye Family outside their mountain gate, and if it weren't for Master Tianfu's name, they might not have cared about the Ye Family's life and death.

"Indeed, Ascendant Qianhe and Supreme Taihao saw it clearly!" Ye Jingcheng did not hide it.

And Jin Yutang's face turned somewhat displeased.

Regardless of whether the two family ancestors were involved with the Beast Tide, it was now already entangled.

Currently, their greatest concern was not about taking the blame, but whether the Jin Family Ancestor was still alive.

It was extremely difficult for two Fake Golden Core Early Stage cultivators to fend off a Late Stage Golden Core Demon King.

"They entered our Ye Family's Lingyun Peak, where there is a Tier Three Array, it should be fine, Brother Jin!" Ye Jingcheng also reassured him.

But this reassurance only made his face look worse.

Escaping was one thing, but defending was more dangerous. The Ye Family's Array was indeed Tier Three, but this was Tier Four Golden Core battle power!

However, Jin Yutang's worsening face was unrelated to Ye Jingcheng anymore.

Ye Jingcheng looked at the dusty sky; he ordered the Ye Family members to all use Spirit Stones to restore Spiritual Energy, ensuring Spiritual Power was abundant, and insisted they not disperse.

At critical moments, one must be cautious.

Currently, there were less than eighty cultivators before the Ye Family's eyes, even counting a few in Taichang Market, several in Taihang Market, and some out in the field, the Ye Family members barely numbered over a hundred.

But the combat power of these hundred or so was far less than before.

At a glance, most were from the Jing Generation, with a few from the Xing Generation and Qing Generation.

Among them, late-stage Qi Cultivation cultivators numbered only a dozen or so, with Foundation Establishment cultivators only comprising Ye Jingcheng and Ye Jingli, counting Ye Jingyong and Ye Xingyi, just four people.

Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but look up at the sky; his face was full of sorrow, quite similar to the rain curtain in the sky.
