Forced to become a pure and innocent female pharmacist in order to cultivate immortality.

Not only that, she also revealed her demonic form, a half-human, half-snake shape, which almost frightened Ye Fei.

"Snake, snake demon, Mother, she, she is a monster." Ye Fei shrank into Ye Liuyun's arms in fright.

Seeing Ye Fei's frightened expression, Ye Liuyun immediately rolled her eyes at Long Lingyun.

"Hey, hey, hey, you scared my daughter! Why did you turn back into your demon form?" Ye Liuyun was speechless.

“This state is more comfortable. Besides, you're the one who asked me to come out for a bath, but you didn't say what form I should take.” Long Lingyun replied seriously.

Ye Liuyun was speechless. Too lazy to argue with Long Lingyun, she quickly comforted Ye Fei.

"Don't be afraid, Xiao Fei. This is your Aunt Long. Although she is a snake demon, she is a good demon, just like your Xiao Shan. She won't hurt you," Ye Liuyun said.

After Ye Liuyun's repeated explanations and reassurances, Ye Fei finally raised her head and looked at Long Lingyun beside her.

"Aunt Long," Ye Fei called out.

But Long Lingyun ignored her, which made Ye Fei feel a little aggrieved.

"Xiao Fei, don't mind her, that's just her personality," Ye Liuyun said with a smile.

Ye Fei quickly adapted to having a cold and beautiful aunt by her side. However, the aunt was still not very talkative. She would basically not speak unless Ye Liuyun asked her a question. This would take time to change, and for now, this was the only way.

"Master, is Xiao Fei's aptitude really that bad?" Ye Liuyun asked in his mind.

Lin Qingyou glanced at it casually.

"Hmm, just like you, she has the five elements spiritual root, but her aptitude is quite poor. Speaking of which, you and this little girl really have some kind of fate. However, this little girl seems to be quite extraordinary. She doesn't just have the five elements spiritual root; there seems to be a seal within her body," Lin Qingyou said with some surprise.

These words startled Ye Liuyun.

"Seal? What seal?" Ye Liuyun let his divine sense enter the little girl's body.

Following Lin Qingyou's guidance, she arrived at the depths of Ye Fei's consciousness, where she saw a seven-colored gate bound by chains.

"This? What is this?" Ye Liuyun was very surprised.

Lin Qingyou quickly figured out what it was.

"My goodness, your luck is truly amazing! This little girl actually has the Reincarnation Seal within her body," Lin Qingyou exclaimed in surprise.

What is this Reincarnation Mark? It is something that the strongest beings create before entering the cycle of reincarnation, transforming everything about themselves into a Reincarnation Mark and imprinting it on their souls.

After reincarnation, if there is a chance to break the seal, one can regain everything from the previous life. However, the chances of this are very small, as it will most likely be erased by the power of reincarnation. At least, only a powerful being of the Heavenly Abyss level can use this method after death.

Of course, it could also be an immortal from the upper realm. Immortals also die; they are not immortal, but their lifespan is extremely long.

After hearing Lin Qingyou's explanation, Ye Liuyun was dumbfounded. She never expected that the adopted daughter she had taken in on a whim might be a reincarnation of an immortal from the upper realm.

This is truly a wonderful coincidence.

"Is that so? Is there any way to break the seal? If the seal is broken, what will happen to Xiao Fei? Will she turn into someone else?" Ye Liuyun asked with some concern.

"It's hard to say. We'll only know after the seal is broken. But this reincarnation seal isn't so easy to break, at least not for now. Of course, you don't need to worry. She's different from you back then. You have plenty of cultivation resources. Even if she has five elemental roots, you can find five cultivation methods suitable for her so she can cultivate together."

"Let me tell you, the Five Elements Spiritual Root is called a useless body, but that's only equivalent to an ordinary cultivator. For example, if this little girl can cultivate to the Dao Palace realm, she will be five times stronger than other cultivators of the same realm from the start." Lin Qingyou explained the issue of the Five Elements Spiritual Root.

The Five Elements Spiritual Roots are simply too difficult to cultivate. Others with a single spiritual root can break through their realm by simply switching to the corresponding attribute's cultivation method, but you must cultivate all five attribute cultivation methods to the level required to break through your realm in order to do so.

Ye Liuyun couldn't have cultivated like that back then, because she didn't have enough cultivation resources to support her.

Chapter 451 The Ximen Family (5000 words)

After hearing Lin Qingyou's explanation, Ye Liuyun felt a great deal of envy, jealousy, and hatred. In other words, having multiple spiritual root attributes does not necessarily mean poor aptitude. With sufficient cultivation resources, one can actually be stronger than someone with only one spiritual root.

Rather, it's because having too many spiritual root attributes means that breaking through to a higher realm requires more time, more cultivation resources, and more cultivation techniques.

In this world, apart from the offspring of some powerful figures in the cultivation world, ordinary sect disciples, and even direct disciples of major sects, rarely enjoy the same preferential treatment as their sects.

It is too risky to spend five times the effort and money to cultivate a multi-attribute disciple who is almost impossible to cultivate successfully, because the difficulty of breaking through the realm and undergoing tribulation when having five attribute spiritual roots is also five times that of others.

Most cultivators struggle to achieve anything with even one type of spiritual root, let alone five. Over time, having multiple spiritual roots becomes a sign of poor aptitude; the more spiritual root attributes one has, the worse their aptitude becomes.

This has become common knowledge in the cultivation world.

"Sigh! Why don't I have such good luck as Xiao Fei? Oh well, Xiao Fei is like a clone of me, so let me train you into the most powerful magic cultivator." Ye Liuyun chuckled to himself.

She has plenty of money and can have whatever she wants. In addition, it won't be difficult for her to cultivate Ye Fei with the Explosive Spirit Pill; it's just a matter of time.

Ye Liuyun was already thinking about how to train Ye Fei. Although she wasn't his biological daughter, he could treat her as a disciple.

Ye Fei was held in Ye Liuyun's arms, staring wide-eyed at her newly recognized mother. She didn't know what her mother was doing, why she was holding her so tightly, and why she had such a strange smile on her face.

Time passed slowly, and half an hour later...

A middle-aged woman came to the outside of the hot spring room, carrying a pile of colorful clothes for young girls, which she had probably just bought from a tailor shop.

"Young master, these are the young ladies' clothes that your young lady asked us to buy," the middle-aged woman said with a slight smile to Jiang Wanshan.

Jiang Wanshan glanced at the clothes in the woman's hands, then stepped aside.

"Let's go in," Jiang Wanshan gestured.

Ye Liuyun, who was inside, immediately withdrew the Dragon Spirit Charm after hearing the commotion outside. If mortals were to see a snake demon taking a bath, they would be terrified.

After the door opened, a middle-aged woman walked in, smiling as she placed the clothes on the table beside her.

"Miss, I have bought the clothes you requested. Is there anything else you need?" the middle-aged woman asked politely after putting down the clothes.

Ye Liuyun glanced at the clothes and then gestured for her to leave.

"That's all. I have no other requests. You can go ahead and get back to work."

The middle-aged woman nodded, then turned and left.

After the middle-aged woman left, Ye Liuyun picked Ye Fei up from the hot spring. She first used her internal energy to shake off the water from her body, then took out a set of white underwear and put it on.

After putting on the underwear, a flash of white light appeared on her body, and the Seven Illusions Glazed Skirt reappeared. Wearing this magical garment was so simple, just a matter of a thought.

"Oh, come here, Xiao Fei, look, which outfit do you like?" Ye Liuyun casually picked up the clothes prepared for Ye Fei from the table and asked with a smile.

These clothes are only temporary. When she has time, she will definitely take measurements for Ye Fei and perhaps some magical artifact clothes.

Ye Fei glanced at it a few times, then shook her head.

"I... I don't know which one looks good. I'll just go with whichever one Mother says looks good." Ye Fei didn't know much about clothes.

Ye Liuyun thought for a moment, then chose a girly pink outfit.

"Let's go with this one, the girly pink one," Ye Liuyun chuckled.

After choosing her clothes, Ye Fei stood obediently in place, letting Ye Liuyun help her put them on.

This warm feeling made her feelings for Ye Liuyun grow stronger.

A moment later, Ye Fei and Ye Liuyun emerged from the hot spring. Ye Fei, dressed in a pink girlish outfit, looked even cuter than before.

As for cultivation, Ye Liuyun planned to finish visiting his relatives and return to the Eastern Wilderness before discussing it further; there was no rush.

"Elder Jiang, you should rest too. We'll find out the exact location of the Ximen family tomorrow," Ye Liuyun said.

Jiang Wanshan nodded.

As soon as Ye Fei followed Ye Liuyun into the room, she fell asleep quickly; that's how it is when people relax.

After watching Ye Fei fall asleep, Ye Liuyun unconsciously walked to the dressing mirror and looked at herself. Once she calmed down, she realized that something was strange about her, or rather, abnormal.

"Sigh! It's strange. Have I been a woman for too long? My womanly nature is gradually showing. I don't understand why I couldn't help myself when I saw this little girl's pitiful eyes today. I wonder what Aoxue's reaction would be if she knew I had an adopted daughter." Ye Liuyun turned her head and looked at the sleeping Ye Fei and murmured.

Ye Liuyun took a deep breath and then lay down next to Ye Fei. However, not long after Ye Liuyun lay down, something interesting and strange happened.

Ye Liuyun suddenly felt his consciousness float away, drifting into a special space. Why was it a special space? Because this space felt like a universe.

All around her was a starry sky, and in the distance directly in front of her stood a strange, multicolored tree. This tree was very peculiar; every strip of paper and every leaf seemed to be connected to the surrounding space.

Or perhaps it is this tree that supports the entire universe. The tree trunk and stalk are a jade-green color, seemingly brimming with boundless vitality.

"Strange, where am I?" Ye Liuyun looked around in confusion.

The place was deathly silent, without a single person in sight; she was the only one there.

Then, Ye Liuyun's consciousness instinctively drifted towards the tree. Although the tree didn't look big from a distance, it was actually quite far away from her.

Her consciousness flew for a long time before finally arriving at the area where the tree was located. She hadn't thought it was big because she was too far away earlier.

"Wow, what a huge tree! What kind of tree is this? Rooted in the darkness, it supports an entire universe above its head. Wow, magnificent!" Ye Liuyun looked around the enormous tree from left to right, like a curious child.

After observing for a while, Ye Liuyun couldn't help but reach out and touch the tree. But the moment she touched it, she was stunned because a scene suddenly appeared before her eyes.

The scene was originally pitch black with nothing in it, but after a while, a glimmer of light appeared in the darkness. This light, like a supernova explosion, spread out in a kaleidoscope of colors and spread into the surrounding darkness.

Amidst the vibrant colors, there was a seed as green as jade. This seed took root and sprouted in the darkness, becoming a sapling. Then, the sapling slowly grew a leaf, and within that leaf was a universe within itself.

As the sapling grew larger, more and more leaves appeared on the tree, eventually dividing the darkness. Above was the starry universe, and below was endless darkness.

"The Primordial Tree?" Four words inexplicably popped into Ye Liuyun's mind.

She didn't know why she knew the tree's name. It was a bit strange.

Not only that, but while she was in a daze, a bright green fruit on the tree canopy, which was as vast as the universe, suddenly fell from the tree and hit Ye Liuyun on the head.

"Ouch, what's this?" Ye Liuyun winced in pain, then looked down and saw a fruit that looked like a green apple lying on the ground. Somewhat puzzled, she picked it up and examined it closely.

"An apple? Strange, where did this apple come from? Could it be from a tree?" Ye Liuyun looked up at the sky again.

But the tree canopy was completely a cosmic starry sky, so where were the fruits? Even stranger, when Ye Liuyun looked down at the apple in his hand again, he found that the apple had disappeared.

"Gone? Are you kidding me?" Ye Liuyun rolled his eyes.

Just as Ye Liuyun was about to say something, her consciousness was suddenly pulled back from the Primal Technique by an irresistible force.

"Huh?" Ye Liuyun suddenly opened his eyes, and as soon as he opened them, he realized it was already daylight.

Ye Liuyun glanced out the window, then looked at Ye Fei beside him; the little girl hadn't woken up yet.

"Damn it, am I dreaming? What a strange dream, a bizarre tree supporting the universe." Ye Liuyun muttered to himself.

She sat on the edge of the bed, lost in thought for a while, before gradually coming to her senses.

After regaining her senses, she gently patted Ye Fei.

"Xiao Fei, wake up," Ye Liuyun called out.

At Ye Liuyun's call, Ye Fei slowly opened her eyes. She glanced at Ye Liuyun and then rubbed her eyes.

"Good morning, Mother." Ye Fei greeted her with a dazed look on her face.

"Good morning." Ye Liuyun chuckled.

After waking up, Ye Liuyun summoned Jiang Wanshan and asked him to inquire about the Ximen family. Jiang Wanshan went directly to the most influential person in town to ask.

Sure enough, the town mayor knew where Ximen Mountain was.

After finding out the location, Ye Liuyun instructed Jiang Wanshan to urge the flying boat forward at full speed. Since they now had a clear location, and Ye Liuyun had many other things to do, he didn't want to waste any more time.

The mortal world of Xichuan is relatively small, not as large as the other regions. Among the five major regions, the mortal world of Zhongzhou is the largest, followed by Donghuang, Nanling, Xichuan, and Beiyuan. Beiyuan is the least suitable place for mortals to live.

Xichuan is only about half the size of the secular world of Nanling, but it is the largest cultivation world in the area, with numerous sects.

Meanwhile, at the same time, there was Ximenshan.

Ximen Mountain is actually a valley, and the Ximen family is located in the valley. To enter the Ximen family, one must pass through the valley entrance, which resembles a heavenly gate. This valley entrance is called Ximen Mountain.

The Ximen family has been quite lively these past few days because the eldest son of the Ximen family, Ximen Tianyang, is getting married.

But it's strange that Ximen Tianyang already had a wife, so why did he get married again? This doesn't seem to conform to the proper etiquette.

Why is this? It's because Ximen Tianyang's wife, after decades of marriage, has not given birth to any children.

Therefore, under strong pressure from the higher-ups of the Ximen family, Ximen Tianyang had no choice but to marry the youngest daughter of the Valley Master of Haori Chiyang Valley. Haori Chiyang Valley was the number one sect in Xichuan. A marriage between the number one sect and the number one family in Xichuan was definitely a big deal.

Wherever Ye Liuyun went, something happened, except for the Nangong family, where nothing happened.

Because Ximen Tianyang is actually the husband of Ye Liuyun's third sister, Ye Ningxue.

At this moment, an angry female voice came from Ye Ningxue's residence.

"Ximen Tianyang, you bastard, you big liar, you actually want to take a concubine? You promised back then that you would only love me, and just because I didn't give your Ximen family a son or daughter, you're going to break your vow, is that it?" In an exquisite room, a young woman dressed in a light green dress was pointing at a young man and cursing him.

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed Ye Ningxue. Ye Ningxue was the most fiery of the three sisters, somewhat shrewish, and easily recognizable.

As for the person he scolded, it was naturally Ximen Yang, but to be precise, it should be Ximen Tianyang.

"Xiaoxue, this, this really isn't my wish. We're both cultivators now, and having another child depends entirely on luck. Do you think I'd be so bored as to get another woman? This was a sudden decision made by the clan elders, as you know. I can't refuse the clan's decision," Ximen Tianyang explained, bowing his head.

Ye Ningxue was furious when she saw her husband's cowardly behavior.
