Sword Rises in the Blue Lagoon, Why Are All the Sword Cultivation Families Older Than Old Six?

A moment later, the void rippled, and a Heavenly King Realm cultivator arrived before the Old Ancestor of the Li family, producing a thick ancient book with a flip of his hand. The Old Ancestor of the Li family reached out and took the ancient book, smiling as he said, "This records the major events of the Tianxuan Realm, basically including everything from this era."

As he spoke, he opened the ancient book, turned to the page with the jade pendant, and laid the book flat on the low table, saying, "Take a look and see if it's the same."

Ye Xuan took off the incomplete jade pendant from his waist and compared it on all sides. Although it was somewhat incomplete, the parts that remained were exactly the same. The two exchanged a glance, and the Old Ancestor of the Li family said, "It really is! It seems I remembered correctly."

Ye Xuan didn't speak, but looked at the words on the page, which read: "The Ye family, a once glorious family that existed for tens of millions of years, was the undeniable number one behemoth of the Tianxuan Realm before the last Dark Turmoil. After the Dark Turmoil began, the Ye family stepped forward, leading all the forces of the Tianxuan Realm to resist the Dark Turmoil. However, as the war continued, the Ye family gradually showed signs of decline. Although they were brave and fearless, the enemy was too powerful. Those tragic battles caused the Ye family's elite to suffer constant losses."

"Finally, in a major battle that determined the course of the war, the Ye family mobilized almost all of its members, and the battle was extremely tragic. Although the Ye family heavily damaged the side of the forbidden zone, they themselves suffered heavy casualties, while other forces secretly preserved their strength, and some even attempted to take the opportunity to suppress the Ye family. The Ye family was attacked from both sides, and internal resources gradually dwindled. After the war, the remaining members of the Ye family were disheartened and quietly retreated into seclusion with the family's last secrets and treasures, disappearing from the stage of the Tianxuan Realm."

After reading this passage, Ye Xuan was filled with emotion. He deeply understood the greatness and helplessness of the Ye family's ancestors. Now that he carried the bloodline of the Ye family, he seemed to feel the strength and responsibility passed down by his ancestors. He clenched his fist and secretly vowed to revitalize the Ye family and not let the Ye family's glory be buried in history forever.

Ye Xuan pondered for a moment and then looked at the Old Ancestor of the Li family and said, "Would you mind letting me make a copy of all the contents of this ancient book?"

"Please, Head of the Ye family. This ancient book was obtained by an old ancestor of my Li family in his early years," said the Old Ancestor of the Li family.

Then Ye Xuan handed the ancient book to 201 behind him. 201 took it and took out a jade slip to begin recording.

The Old Ancestor of the Li family hesitated for a moment, seemingly pondering something, and finally mustered his courage to say to Ye Xuan, "I wonder if the Head of the Ye family can reveal how the Ye family is recovering now?"

Ye Xuan looked at the Old Ancestor of the Li family with some confusion, wondering why he would ask such a question.

The Old Ancestor of the Li family said, "I just want to confirm my thoughts and see if they are true." Ye Xuan still didn't answer, but just looked at him.

The Old Ancestor of the Li family continued, steeling himself, "Actually..." Before he could finish speaking, a voice rang out, "Actually, our Li family wants to follow the Ye family, hoping that the clan leader can take in our Li family. We can swear by our inner demons!" Before the voice faded, two figures arrived beside the Old Ancestor of the Li family.

The Old Ancestor of the Li family also stood up, and the three said in unison, "We, Li Daokong, Li Daolin, and Li Daoqian of the Li family, hereby swear by our inner demons that the Li family will follow the Ye family from now on and will not betray them. If we betray, we will be devoured by our inner demons and die."

Ye Xuan looked at the three of them and said, "I haven't said I would agree to you."

The three looked at each other, and a trace of disappointment appeared on their faces. Ye Xuan continued, "Why do you want to follow my Ye family?"

This time, the one in the middle, called Li Daolin, spoke, "Because we have no other choice. Just now, the third brother mentioned the records in the ancient book and your current situation. You are indeed all very young, and your potential is great. Our Li family wants to survive in the upcoming great era of contention. We can only gamble now, gambling that the Ye family will once again be glorious and that we can get on the Ye family's bandwagon."

After listening, Ye Xuan said, "Well, you're being very straightforward. I can agree to what you said, but you must not act in the name of the Ye family without authorization. If that happens, you will bear the consequences."

Hearing Ye Xuan's words, the three immediately became excited and said, "Thank you, Clan Leader! We will definitely convey your will." Then, Li Daokong, who was beside him, asked Ye Xuan with a grin, "How is the Ye family's power now?"

Ye Xuan smiled and said, "I'll just tell you this: what you see now is just the tip of the iceberg of the Ye family."

The three exclaimed, "As expected of a great clan that once clashed head-on with all the forbidden zones!"

"Alright, that's settled. I happen to have some things for you to do," Ye Xuan said.

Li Daolin cupped his hands and said, "Clan Leader, please feel free to instruct us. We will definitely go through fire and water for the Clan Leader."

Ye Xuan said, "It's not that serious. I'm preparing to build a city in a certain place. You go and help with the construction. After it's built, I will move the base over there."

As he spoke, he looked at Ye Qihang and said, "Xiaohang, take them over to take a look first. The location is on the family's public screen."

"Yes, Clan Leader," everyone responded.

Ye Xuan said softly, "Let's go, back to Mist Island."

After speaking, Ye Xuan took a step and entered the Nine-Dragon Chariot. 201 drove the Nine-Dragon Chariot, turning into a golden stream of light, and he and the other eight people instantly disappeared into the horizon.

Ye Xuan returned to Mist Island and looked at the spiritual fields being cultivated everywhere, with many of the Ye family's collateral relatives helping to repair their residences. It all looked peaceful. At this time, Ye Xuan returned to his previous cave on Mist Island. He would wait here for news of the city's construction and also planned to formulate a plan to encourage the Ye family's mortals to have children.

In the Xuanhuan world, families were numerous, and competition was fierce. Mortals, as the foundation of the family, directly affected the family's rise and fall in terms of quantity and quality.

Ye Xuan began to ponder.

1. Family Birth Rewards

Target: All mortal couples of childbearing age within the Ye family. For each child born, they will receive a "gift package" issued by the family, including daily necessities such as food, cloth, and silver.

Multiple children born will result in stacked gift packages, and the amount will increase by a certain percentage for each additional child.

Children born with spiritual roots will receive additional generous rewards.

2. Family Children's Education Guarantee:

Establish a "Family School" in Misty Mountain to provide free education for all school-age children within the family, including mainland history, rumors, and various skills.

3. Establish a "Family Nursing Home": Provide old-age security for mortal elders within the family who have lost their ability to work.

4. Encourage intermarriage between mortals and cultivators: Reward mortals who marry cultivators to improve the quality of mortal bloodlines.

5. Establish a family contribution point mechanism, which can be used by both mortals and cultivators of the family and can be exchanged with each other. Mortals can earn contribution points through childbirth, labor, making contributions, etc.

The above mechanism will be adjusted accordingly according to the actual situation of the family. Three days later, Ye Xuan engraved these contents on a stone tablet and placed it in the most conspicuous place in the Ye family square.
