Chapter 68: Unlimited Scenery (Seeking Recommendations!!)
Ye Zhan Tian was also very happy, adding two ninth-grade mid-term demon beasts, Yejia Fortress had five ninth-grade masters. If Ye Chen is considered a ninth-grade mid-term master, then Yejia Fortress has four ninth-grade mid-term masters. After experiencing the previous battle, Xuan Qi also broke through and will soon break through the ninth-grade mid-term. At that time, there will be five ninth-grade mid-term masters. Within hundreds of miles, Yejia Fortress is undoubtedly the number one family.
"Tomorrow, Ye Jia Bao will hold a celebration, and at that time, more than 100 families in Donglin County will send people to come and congratulate us. When you go back, you must prepare well and help our Ye Jia Bao make a good impression. It's been a long time since Ye Jia Bao has been so prosperous!" Ye Zhan Tian said with satisfaction, looking into the distance. "But it's not suitable to arrange Da Mao and Er Mao at the gate of Ye Jia Bao. I'll set aside a place in the backyard and build a nest for them!"
The entire Yejia Fort was immersed in celebration, and during this period, one after another good news came, every household in Yejia Fort felt the recent changes, all sorts of stories about Ye Chen were spread incredibly, Ye Chen's position in the hearts of the people of Yejia Fort rose steadily.
Ye Family Village was bustling all day, and when Xuan Tian Chi Hu and Xun Ying Lei Bao entered Ye Family Village, the crowd was even more excited, beating gongs and drums. The entire Ye Family Village was decorated with lanterns and streamers, filled with joy and festivity.
The next day, when the sky was just a little light, the people of Yehjia village got up early and slaughtered pigs and sheep. The streets in the village were filled with lively villagers everywhere.
Ye Cangxuan and Ye Zhantian were also busy, while Ye Chen didn't understand anything and just stood by watching, occasionally lending a hand.
The villagers' faces were all beaming with joy.
"I heard that at least several dozen family heads came to congratulate this time."
"It shouldn't be just that, after all the clan leader is about to be taken as a disciple by Xuan Yi Medicine Zun, this is a big deal that can't be ignored. The families within hundreds of miles should all come to congratulate, right? Thinking back to before, when was Ye Jia Pu ever so prosperous!"
Hearing the words of that tribesman, several elderly people in the tribe shed tears. They could see the glory of Yejia today and they would be able to die with their eyes closed.
"Have you guys heard? Yesterday night, Da Mao and Er Mao actually followed Ye Meng and those few kids on patrol for a whole night."
"This big silly fool actually listened."
"No way! I sent them two pieces of meat this morning!"
The folk customs inside Yejia Village are still quite simple and honest, whoever treats them well, they will treat that person with all their heart, even if it's two demon beasts.
The sky was just bright, and a long queue had already formed outside Yejia Fortress. Batch after batch of people carrying poles were waiting outside Yejia Fortress. From now on, Yejia Fortress would be the largest force within hundreds of miles around. When Ye Chen becomes a disciple of Xuan Yi Medicine Zun, it's possible that the entire Donglin County will look up to Yejia Fortress as their leader. Today was the grand celebration of Yejia Fortress, and they didn't dare to slack off!
The big gate of Yejia Fortress creaked open, and the long dragon in front of the gate made several people from the Ye family who were responsible for maintaining order stunned. The crowd in front of the gate was like a sea of people, and it was impossible to see the end at a glance! My god, how many people are there!
"Please line up in order and enter one by one, leaving your visiting cards behind!"
After a while, the first batch of people who came to congratulate started entering Yejia Fort.
"In the northern county, the Xu family sent one purple coral, one nourishing jade, ten 100-year-old lingzhi mushrooms, thirty 100-year-old fire ginseng, and one hundred 50-year-old heavenly cold grass..." A member of the Ye family shouted loudly.
Upon hearing this, the large crowd waiting in the back looked at each other in dismay. The Xu family was indeed generous, and everyone had different emotions. Few people gave more than what the Xu family gave, and some were afraid that they hadn't given enough.
"From the house of County Governor Yin, we present one piece of Heavenly Fire Snake Saliva, one Eighty-Year Heaven's Movement Fruit, and one set of Purple Scale Armor!" After a while, that person from the Ye family looked at the gift list again and loudly announced.
Everyone burst into an uproar.
"Junnan Yin's family actually sent a Tianhuo snake gall!"
The Ye family members who received the gift list were getting more and more excited. The gifts sent by these families were all rare and precious items, which the Ye family had never received in their hundreds of years of history. Each of them was thrilled with pride.
One after another, members of the Ye family entered the Ye Manor. The gifts they brought were all moved into the treasure vault of the Ye Manor. For hundreds of years, the Ye Manor had been in decline, and the treasure vault was empty. Now, one good thing after another came in, and the shelves were filled to capacity.
Even Ye Cangxuan and Ye Zhantian were also excited beyond measure.
Like the Xu and Yin families, those big families sent more precious things. Those small families couldn't afford to put together a gift list, so they also included Gathering Qi Pills and Condensing Qi Pills in their gift lists. Some gave one or two hundred Gathering Qi Pills, while some richer ones gave one or two Condensing Qi Pills.
Finally, there were more than 130 families who came to give gifts, and the things they sent filled up half of the treasure vault. The Ye family's manor had never been so prosperous before. The members of the Ye family walked around in the manor with their heads held high, chests out, and brows raised.
After all the gifts were received, it had been three or four hours. All those who brought gifts had entered the Yejia Fortress. Generally, followers were accommodated in several houses on the east side of the Yejia Fortress, but there were not enough accommodations, and most people could only stay in the outer square for the time being. Some clan leaders and castle owners entered the Yejia family hall.
Ye Chen sat at the top, looking down at these castle owners and tribal leaders. Although they were influential in Donglin County, Ye Chen was not tense at all, but rather calm and composed.
"Gentlemen, I forgot to announce that Xiao Ye Chen has already become the patriarch of my Ye family." Ye Zhan Tian bowed his fist to the crowd in the hall, "Thank you, esteemed patriarchs and castle owners, for coming from afar. The Ye Family Castle is flourishing."
"War Brother's words are heavy." Many fortress owners and clan leaders responded with courtesy, the news that Ye Chen became the clan leader was not surprising to them at all. If their family had such a genius, they would also be eager to promote him to the position of clan leader!
They took a glance at Ye Chen, who was sitting upright at the top, and a hint of jealousy and admiration flashed in their eyes. Why didn't their own family produce such a genius? More than a hundred families came to offer gifts and congratulations, today the Ye Family Manor is truly glorious!
These people came one after another to get close to Ye Zhan Tian and Ye Cang Xuan.
Ye Zhan Tian swept his gaze over the crowd, and there were some clan leaders and castle owners that he didn't even recognize. However, he did see a few familiar faces among them. To his surprise, Yan Yin and Qin Yu were also present, fawning and smiling obsequiously as they cast him a slight bow.
Ye Zhan Tian didn't respond, his gaze swept over them coldly. These wallheads must be beaten thoroughly. However, since Yan Yin and Qin Yu have left Yunjia Fortress, Yejia Fortress doesn't need to make too many enemies. Can't push all these people to the side of Yunjia Fortress.
"Gentlemen, it's almost noon. I've set up a banquet at Ye Family Fort, and I'd be honored if you could join me. We still have about an hour to go, so why don't we catch up with each other here first?" Ye Zhantian said with a smile.
"Then we'll be troubling you!" The crowd responded in unison.
Many castle owners surrounded Ye Zhan Tian, Ye Cang Xuan, and Ye Zhan Long, who were dealing with the situation from all sides.
Ye Chen sat at the top and didn't come down, but he was happy to be idle. With so many people, looking at him made his head ache to death, and if he had to go down and deal with them, he'd rather die.
Ye Chen's gaze swept over the crowd of Ye family members, and in a distant corner, Ye Lian stood quietly, wearing a white silk dress, like a clear lotus flower, elegant and enchanting. She saw Ye Chen's gaze cast over and couldn't help but curve her lips into a smile.
