"Everyone my daughter is about to step into the Soul Separation realm of her cultivation."

Under ordinary circumstances there was no need to make such a big deal out of it but Xiao Ju Hong's case is rather special. She cultivates the Evil Blood Domain and this requires special attention and assistance in breaking through.

"Then she would need to make a trip to the Immortal Spring of Blood."

"Indeed."

Ye Gui Feng tilts his head as he has no clue as to why any of this involves him but it seems to be quite important to Xiao Ju Hong's cultivation so that was already enough for him to want to help out if he can.

"Little b... Nephew."

Seemingly forcing himself to call Ye Gui Feng nephew Yao Xie Xian grits his teeth and begins to speak.

"The Immortal Spring of Blood is a place that only those beneath the Nascent Soul realms may enter. But..."

This is the main reason as to why Ye Gui Feng had been picked despite being at a cultivation realm that is equal only to the Core Formation realm.

"Your Jiangshi is at the Soul Separation realm so..."

Almost immediately Ye Gui Feng nods his head and gives his quick reply.

"I understand. I shall accompany Xiao Ju Hong to the spring."

More eyebrows are furrowed as more strange looks are directed at Ye Gui Feng. He actually calls the one known as the Evil Blood Princess such a name?

"Xue Hua, such a fearsome and cold name and he actually..."

"Changed it to that?"

"Heh this little brat is quite interesting."

Different reactions come from the various patriarchs. But most of them only continue to look at Ye Gui Feng strangely rather than gleaming with interest.

Yao Xie Xian clenches his fists together as he inwardly shakes his head. The flavor of this situation has completely changed.

"Very well th-"

"Clan chief please wait."

Yao Nie Tian steps out from amongst the side groups and offers a bow before beginning to speak.

"My son here is quite happy to be of assistance but I believe compensations must be given never the less."

Ye Gui Feng raises an eyebrow. He had hastily agreed to help because it involves Xiao Ju Hong so the thought didn't come to mind.

"This..."

"Hmph it should be his honor to help the family."

"That might be so but do know this. Our Yao family are made up of various mixes of blood. We are a family of various clans making it so that we are not one hundred percent related under a single source of blood."

Various bloodlines from various different clans have married into the Yao family in the past and this makes it so that the current bloodline isn't a pure direct descendant of the ancestor, Yao Zhen Tian.

"I only have this one son as my relative. If something should happen to him on this trip..."

Yao Xie Xian puts up a hand and begins to speak.

"No need to continue. Nephew Xieshen will be compensated for his troubles as it is rightfully so."

With a glare Yao Xie Xian looks to Ye Gui Feng.
