Chapter 1023: 1023 Protective Family Formation! (Second Update)

"Young Master, the Clan Leader of the Zhao Clan wishes to see you," Shi San said.

"Oh? Let him in."

Ye Qiu remained unruffled, continuing to sit in the courtyard, quietly admiring the fallen petals.

"Clan Leader Ye."

"Clan Leader Zhao." Approaching was a thin, elderly man, quite advanced in age, but his eyes were exceptionally bright, making him appear very astute.

Ye Qiu rose slightly, returned the courtesy, and said a few words with clasped hands.

After taking a seat, Ye Qiu calmly said, "I wonder what the purpose of Clan Leader Zhao’s visit is this time?"

The old man glanced around, then spoke softly, "To be honest, I’ve come to Clan Leader Ye with an unreasonable request."

"Please, speak your mind."

"I have heard that Clan Leader Ye is proficient in Formation, is it true?" This Zhao Clan Leader asked earnestly.

Ye Qiu chuckled lightly, saying, "I have merely dabbled. Why? Does Clan Leader Zhao’s request involve Formation?"

"Haha, Clan Leader Ye is indeed a wise man. I came today to invite Clan Leader Ye to provide assistance and set up a Formation for my Zhao Clan. I wonder if Clan Leader Ye would be willing to help? Of course, I would not have Clan Leader Ye make the trip for nothing. In return, our clan is willing to offer a thousand third-tier Crystal Stones as compensation."

Ye Qiu pondered for a moment. Clan Leader Zhao could not discern Ye Qiu’s thoughts as there was no expression on Ye Qiu’s face, making it impossible to guess his intent.

"A thousand third-tier Crystal Stones seems too little. How about this, recently I require several aged herbs. If Clan Leader Zhao can provide ten herbs that are five hundred years old, I will set up a protective formation for your Zhao Clan." Ye Qiu said calmly.

"This..." The people beside Clan Leader Zhao changed expression upon hearing Ye Qiu’s increased demand, especially the ten herbs that are five hundred years old, which are rare even in the ancient grounds.

"Clan Leader Zhao, you can consider carefully. If you feel that it is difficult, you can refuse." Ye Qiu appeared indifferent, as if saying that even a thousand Crystal Stones and ten herbs were of little importance to him.

Indeed, with the number of Crystal Stones Ye Qiu currently possessed, not only was it comparable to the Zhao Clan, but even the three ancient clans wouldn’t have more. Despite his wealth, Ye Qiu couldn’t easily agree to the Zhao Clan’s request.

He was currently holding out for the highest offer, and Ye Qiu had confidence that even if he asked for ten more herbs of five hundred years, the Zhao Clan would agree.

Since Clan Leader Zhao was the first to approach, it meant he recognized the importance of Formation to an ancient clan.

Clan Leader Zhao’s expression changed several times, eventually gritting his teeth and saying, "Alright, I agree to your terms."

Ye Qiu smiled knowingly, while Jin Shanshun, Jin’er, and other few standing by were puzzled as to why Clan Leader Zhao was willing to offer so many Crystal Stones just to set up a grand formation.

After negotiations concluded, Clan Leader Zhao returned to prepare the Crystal Stones and herbs, delivering them to Ye Qiu’s courtyard within a day.

As agreed, Ye Qiu went to the Zhao Clan to begin setting up a protective formation for them.

"Is this the infamous Ye Qiu?"

"Yes, that’s him. I heard that the Clan Leader spared no expense to invite him to set up a Formation for our Zhao Clan." Some young Zhao Clan disciples discussed, especially seeing Ye Qiu accompanied by the Clan Leader, which caused discomfort among many young Zhao disciples. Looking at Ye Qiu and then at themselves, none could remain calm faced with the situation.

As for some of Zhao Clan’s young female disciples, they repeatedly blinked their bright, moonlike gazes, all falling on Ye Qiu, glimmering with admiration, making the young Zhao disciples purse their lips and sulk.

This scene naturally did not escape Ye Qiu’s notice, but he did not mind the hostility from these young Zhao disciples. With his current strength, this younger generation was no longer qualified to compete with him; Ye Qiu’s focus was now on the elder strongmen of the ancient grounds.

His gaze merely brushed lightly over these youths, no longer lingering. This action immediately sparked various emotions among the Zhao disciples.

The male disciples were very angry, feeling ignored by Ye Qiu, while the female disciples were abuzz.

"He seemed to be looking at you just now."

"Really? Was he really looking at me?"

"You’re the prettiest among our Zhao Clan’s female members, so naturally, he was looking at you."

"I don’t think that’s necessarily the case; maybe he was looking at me, since his gaze also landed on me for a good half second."

Such debates among the Zhao Clan’s female disciples left the male disciples very displeased, harboring deep resentment towards Ye Qiu.

Isn’t it just because of strong talent, strength, and knowing Formation?

What’s so remarkable about that,

Several Zhao disciples could only console themselves, while Ye Qiu was troubled in his mind about how to set up a protective formation for the Zhao Clan.

His understanding of Formation so far was, in Ye Qiu’s opinion, only superficial.

But since Clan Leader Zhao approached him, Ye Qiu saw it as an opportunity to earn a good profit and also connect with many ancient clans.

Therefore, Ye Qiu did not hesitate too long at that time before agreeing.

However, the issue now presented itself: setting up a protective formation was not easy, and with Ye Qiu’s current skills in Formation, it was very challenging.

"Let’s give it a try," Ye Qiu thought to himself. At the moment, he could only grit his teeth and strive to complete the task.

The protective formation required a large number of Crystal Stones. Besides the thousand third-tier Crystal Stones provided, Clan Leader Zhao subsequently delivered another two thousand, following Ye Qiu’s instructions, to be placed in various positions within the Zhao Clan.

With each Crystal Stone positioned, Ye Qiu injected a spell.

Ye Qiu wandered within the Zhao Clan, two thousand Crystal Stones, which were placed in less than three hours.

"Clan Leader Zhao, due to the number of Crystal Stones, the formation’s area will have to be reduced a bit, unable to cover the entire Zhao Clan," Ye Qiu said.

"No problem, as long as it protects our Zhao Clan’s ancestral hall and conference hall."

Next, Ye Qiu began setting up the formation’s core; only after the core was arranged could the formation be activated.

Once everything was complete, Ye Qiu taught Clan Leader Zhao how to activate the formation; as long as the core was triggered, the entire formation could be activated.

Clan Leader Zhao tested it, instantly an invisible force shielded the main locations of Zhao Clan, leaving many Zhao disciples deeply astonished.

Is this the power of Formation?

Clan Leader Zhao was very satisfied and hosted a banquet for Ye Qiu, after a delicious meal at Zhao Clan, Ye Qiu returned to his courtyard.

The following day, news of Ye Qiu setting up a protective formation for the Zhao Clan spread, and Ye Qiu didn’t realize that Clan Leader Zhao had deliberately tested the formation’s power, ultimately being very satisfied. Originally, only the Zhao Clan knew about it, but due to the large commotion during activation, it couldn’t be concealed from nearby ancient clans, eventually revealing that the formation was Ye Qiu’s work.

Upon hearing that Ye Qiu set up a protective formation for an ancient clan, many ancient clans became intrigued.
