Ye Yu couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, staring carefully at the burly man for a long moment.
He finally asked, "You’re only at early Celestial Immortal Realm—how can you so boldly claim you’ll take over the entire Yixing Pavilion?"
"Even if their pavilion master is absent, there are other immortals at Golden Immortal Realm."
The burly man stopped his actions and said seriously, "First, I need to tell you something: all members of Yixing Pavilion are immortal maidens."
"And to deal with immortal maidens, you don’t necessarily have to conquer them by strength—other methods work too!"
"My wish is to use my personal charm to take over the entire Yixing Pavilion!"
"And then establish the largest immortal family in the Heavenly Realm!"
After saying this, the burly immortal struck a powerful pose.
Fists clenched, muscles outlined clearly even under his immortal robe.
"Damn! Is this bodybuilding or cultivation?"
Ye Yu’s mouth twitched twice.
Then he waved his hand slightly toward the burly immortal: "Alright, you can leave. I’ll let it slide this time, but if you dare to come destroy the sect’s formation again, I’m afraid you won’t live to return!"
The burly immortal frowned and asked unhappily, "What do you mean by that?"
Ye Yu then carefully explained the sect formation’s structure and its anti-destruction ability.
"If external damage occurs, the entire grand formation will activate automatically and summon heavenly thunder with power enough to kill all immortals below peak Golden Immortal Realm."
"Don’t think that just because you have some knowledge of formations at Celestial Immortal Realm that all formations are the same."
"Some formations are truly untouchable—you touch and you die!"
The burly man nodded thoughtfully, looking at Ye Yu with some respect.
But from Ye Yu’s professional explanation, it was clear his formation expertise far surpassed the man’s.
Curious, he asked, "So is there no way to break this formation?"
"Of course there is, but I’m not telling you because I set this formation myself!"
When Ye Yu said this with a smile, the burly man clearly did not believe him.
But then Ye Yu took out his jade badge of Sixth Elder of Yixing Pavilion.
"Immortal friend, best leave quickly, or you really will die!"
The burly man didn’t look at the badge but at Ye Yu’s right wrist.
"You are Ye Yu, from the Ye family immortal clan of Sun-Moon State?"
Hearing this, Ye Yu’s gaze instantly turned icy cold.
At the same time, with a thought, he laid down an immortal formation around them.
"Who are you? How do you know my background?"
The burly immortal laughed, "I’m your grandfather, Ye Chenshan! When you were born, I didn’t return."
"But the bracelet on your wrist is the Ye family immortal emblem I personally designed."
"Not only you have it, your father does too."
"I designed it so we could recognize each other when traveling!"
Ye Yu gasped inwardly.
"So this is the legendary tough, fighting grandfather who wanted to build an immortal family alone?"
"Honestly, seeing how young he looks, Ye Yu wasn’t sure he could recognize him."
In contrast, Ye Chenshan acted naturally.
He embraced Ye Yu warmly.
With a sigh said, "In the blink of an eye, you’ve grown so big. If you hadn’t shown the bracelet, I wouldn’t have dared recognize you."
"It’s my fault, always working away, no time to come home."
Ye Yu’s mouth twitched a few times.
"Calling chasing immortal maidens ‘working away’—"
"That’s pretty inspiring talk. What, do you want me to praise you?"
Ye Chenshan didn’t know what Ye Yu was thinking and took the jade badge from him, inspecting it carefully.
"This thing doesn’t look fake!"
Ye Yu was speechless, muttering, "Because it’s real."
Then he briefly recounted his arrival at Yixing Pavilion.
But he just couldn’t bring himself to call him grandfather.
Luckily, Ye Chenshan didn’t mind.
After a long silence, he patted Ye Yu’s shoulder.
"Alright, I understand. Since you’ve successfully infiltrated Yixing Pavilion, I won’t compete with you."
"There are plenty of immortal maidens here for ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ you to branch out the family!"
"I’ll shift my sights elsewhere."
Hearing this, Ye Yu’s expression grew complex.
"What’s that supposed to mean, ‘not competing’?"
"Your firm look makes it seem like a tough decision."
"And building a large immortal family is your dream, not mine!"
"I really have no intention to branch out."
"Keep in mind, Yixing Pavilion has nearly three hundred immortal maidens."
"If you tried with all of them, after waking from this dream, two hundred ninety-eight immortal maidens searching for a husband would be the biggest news in the Heavenly Realm."
"It’d be a total mess!"
As Ye Yu wanted to explain, Ye Chenshan pulled a small porcelain bottle from his bosom and handed it to him.
"Being a male immortal, the body is important."
"If you feel weak, take one of these; I guarantee you’ll be as strong as me!"
"Alright, that’s it. Goodbye!"
Ye Chenshan waved and strode away, riding the air.
Truly came and went in a flash.
Ye Yu stood there looking at the little porcelain bottle.
Only one thought echoed in his mind.
"Ah!!!"
"Who sends tonic medicine on a first meeting like this?!"
"Ye Chenshan, you really show off without limits!"
"With you, the Ye family is sure to prosper!"
The next day, Ye Yu held a small meeting inside Yixing Pavilion with the many immortal maidens following him.
He declared that as members of the sect, they should not continue being idle.
They ought to cultivate properly and pursue the Dao.
From today on, everyone would begin cultivation.
Each three-day cycle, whoever made the most progress would earn a day to be alone with him.
This proposal caused a stir among the immortal maidens.
"Surely, always clustering around Elder Ye all day leads nowhere."
"Better to cultivate and earn a chance for a private day."
That way would be the best chance to win Ye Yu’s heart!
Thus, over half the immortal maidens entered seclusion for cultivation.
The sect enjoyed a rare tranquility.
