Chen Yuan's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, but his tone remained calm: "Do you think that a thousand-year-old spiritual herb can make me work for you?"

The middle-aged monk felt the invisible pressure, a trace of cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and he quickly explained: "Senior, please calm down, I have no such intention."

"It's just that this matter concerns the prosperity and safety of my family. I have no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."

"That thousand-year-old dragon snake grass is a treasure that has been passed down in my family for more than 370 years. It has always been kept secret and only the clan leader knows about it."

"The reason why I am willing to sell it is to ask a Yuanying senior to take action and solve this matter."

"Otherwise, if time goes on, my family will either be swallowed up by other clans or forced to move far away. I can only dare to ask for help from you, senior."

Chen Yuan picked up the teacup and gently sipped the magical tea called "Autumn Rain Nourishes the Mountains". The tea had a clear fragrance and a sweet aftertaste, with a refreshing feeling, as if the autumn rain had just stopped and the mountains were misty, ethereal and quiet. It was truly extraordinary.

The middle-aged monk lowered his head slightly, but his eyes stole a glance at Chen Yuan, with a look of nervousness, yet mixed with a bit of hope.

Chen Yuan put down the teacup and said calmly, "You are also at the middle stage of Jindan cultivation. You are also considered a good person in the Yuqinghai cultivation world. What could have made you helpless and willing to take out the thousand-year-old spiritual herb that you have treasured for a long time?"

The middle-aged cultivator felt relieved when he saw that Chen Yuan was not angry. He sighed and said, "This is a long story. I wonder if you have ever heard of the Ye family in Fengling Island in Fengze Sea?"

Chen Yuan thought for a moment and shook his head slightly: "I have never heard of the name of the Ye family. Is this matter related to the Ye family?"

The middle-aged monk nodded and said, "I am Ye Mingchen, the younger generation, and I am honored to be the patriarch of the Ye family in Lanling Island in Fengze Sea."

"The Ye family was founded only 740 years ago. It is just a small family. The elders have profound cultivation. It is reasonable that we have never heard of it."

“Although the Ye family is small, our ancestor, as a casual cultivator, worked hard to create the foundation. The descendants worked even harder and finally gained a firm foothold in the Fengze Sea. They share the Fengze Sea with the Zhu family of Fenglan Island and the Beiling Sect of Fengtian Island.”

"After I took over the position of the head of the family, I did not dare to slack off. The family is also thriving. I have suppressed the Zhu family and the Beiling clan, and I am about to drive these two families out of the Fengze Sea..."

At this point, Ye Mingchen paused, a look of pain appeared on his face, and his voice became low: "The situation of the Ye family was very good, but just a month ago, a group of cloud jellyfish broke into the Fengze Sea, and coincidentally, they stopped outside Fengling Island."

Chen Yuan frowned: "Cloud jellyfish? There are also such monsters in Yuqing Sea?"

Ye Mingchen looked surprised and raised his head to look at Chen Yuan: "Senior, don't you know that the Cloud Jellyfish is the leader of the four evils in Yuqing Sea?"

Chen Yuan's eyes flashed, and he said calmly: "When is it your turn to comment on how I act?"

Ye Mingchen was startled and quickly lowered his head, saying in fear: "I dare not. Senior is in seclusion practicing, how could he be distracted by such a trivial matter."

"It's just that the cloud jellyfish has no intelligence. Not only does it wander in the Ten Thousand Monsters Sea, it also occasionally enters the Jade Purity Sea."

"Wherever it passes, lives are destroyed and spiritual veins are cut off. People hate it so much that they list it as the first of the four evils."

“And the Fengze Sea is not far from the Ten Thousand Monsters Sea. The cloud jellyfish have set their sights on the Ye family’s small spiritual veins and are gathering around Fengling Island.”

"I am at my wits' end, so I have no choice but to take out this dragon snake grass and ask you to help me get rid of those cloud jellyfish."

After saying this, he bowed deeply and addressed him.

Chen Yuan said calmly: "How many cloud jellyfish are there in this group, and how strong are they?" Ye Mingchen was overjoyed when he heard this, and straightened up slightly, but still did not dare to look directly at Chen Yuan.

He said respectfully, "There are not many cloud jellyfish here, only about 10,000 or so, and most of them are just cloud jellyfish."

"But their leader is a level 7 cloud jellyfish. I am no match for him, but if you take action, you will surely be able to wipe them all out."

Chen Yuan said calmly: "If the Ruoyun jellyfish is so easy to deal with, why hasn't anyone bought the Millennium Dragon Snake Grass in your hand?"

"This shouldn't be your first day in the Ghost Market. Are there any Nascent Soul cultivators willing to help?"

Ye Mingchen's body froze, and he smiled bitterly: "Senior, you have a keen eye. I have been on Tianji Island for four days, and indeed two Yuanying seniors have asked me for the price."

“But after learning that they had to deal with that group of cloud jellyfish, they did not agree to my request…”

Chen Yuan sneered in his heart, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

He had read the monster illustrations left by old man Dan Jue and had been in and out of the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Monsters several times. His understanding of the monster race was so profound that no one in the entire Yuqing Sea could match him.

The cloud jellyfish is an extremely peculiar monster with mediocre bloodline, and can only cultivate to the seventh level of monster at most.

Throughout its entire life, it has no intelligence and can only act according to its instincts. Apart from the innate ability to devour spiritual energy, it has no other abilities. It feeds on spirits and likes to gnaw on spiritual veins the most.

If that were the case, this monster wouldn't be difficult to deal with.

But cloud jellyfish like to live in groups, with at least a hundred and at most tens of thousands of them. Under the leadership of their leader, they all display their soul-devouring abilities at the same time, with power so great that they can rival the three royal families of the same level, or even far exceed them.

When Chen Yuan was hunting monsters in the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Monsters, he once saw a group of cloud jellyfish, but there were only about two hundred of them. The leader was just a level three cloud jellyfish, which was quickly eaten by other monsters.

However, he was not from the Yuqing Sea's world of immortal cultivation, so he did not know that the Cloud Jellyfish was actually the leader of the four evils of the Yuqing Sea.

If it is true as Ye Mingchen said, that group of cloud jellyfish has as many as 10,000 individuals, and the leader is a level 7 cloud jellyfish, which is already a powerful force, and he is certainly no match for it.

Even if a Nascent Soul cultivator took action, he would still be seriously injured by the soul-devouring power of tens of thousands of cloud jellyfish, and his cultivation would be delayed by at least a dozen years.

Not to mention a useless body-tempering spiritual herb, even if it was a thousand-year-old spiritual herb that could be used to refine elixirs for the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, no one would be willing to do this losing business.

However, Chen Yuan is a physical cultivator, so the cloud jellyfish is very easy to deal with, and the thousand-year-old dragon snake grass cannot be missed.

Chen Yuan put down the teacup and said calmly, "As long as I get rid of those cloud jellyfish, will you hand over the dragon snake grass?"

Ye Mingchen nodded quickly: "That's right! As long as the senior is willing to help, I will immediately offer the thousand-year-old dragon snake grass to you!"

Chen Yuan smiled slightly: "In that case, you can take out the dragon snake grass now. I will follow you to the Fengze Sea to eliminate those cloud jellyfish."

Ye Mingchen was overjoyed, and did not care about being rude, and suddenly raised his head: "My cultivation is low, so I dare not bring the dragon snake grass with me, but leave it in the clan."

"Please come to Fengling Island. As long as you can kill those cloud jellyfish, in addition to the dragon snake grass, I will also offer a large amount of spiritual stones as an offering!" (End of this chapter)
