The word "Chen" in his name is actually taken from the surname of Chen Ming, the leader of the Mountain Eagle Sect.
When mentioning Ye Chen's own surname, one has to mention the early history of the two major cultivation sects, Haiya Sect and Shanying Sect.
Nowadays, many people don’t know that the Mountain Eagle Sect and the Haiya Sect actually originated from the same origin!
During the second Heavenly Crisis, the overlord of the West Ji State, the Shenxiao Sect, faced siege by demons from outside the world. The mountain gate was almost breached by the demons from outside the territory several times. In order to prevent the destruction of the family, the Ye family, the number one cultivator family in the West Ji State, ordered some of their clansmen to cross the ocean.
Came to Zhongzhou to take refuge.
This tribe is the ancestor of Ye Chen - the Ye family of Zhongzhou that was very prosperous in the southeastern coastal area of Zhongzhou 7,000 years ago.
In other words, Ye Chen is actually a distant relative of Ye Lun, the legendary cultivation economist, and Ye Wan, the current head of Shenxiao Sect.
However, in that chaotic era when monsters and demons emerged together, Zhongzhou was not at peace. Even though the monsters and demons were gradually suppressed by human cultivators, the cultivation world after the war was still divided among heroes. Even if
The seven major sects of Kyushu were not able to quickly establish effective rule from the ruins of the war.
The Ye family, the Han family, the Jiang family, the Xu family, and the Su family, these five cultivation families based in the southeastern coastal area of Zhongzhou and engaged in overseas trade, decided to strengthen their ties not only to stay together for warmth, but also to monopolize the trade channels on the southeastern coast of Zhongzhou.
Join forces to jointly establish a super commercial trust with ocean trade as its core - Haiya Chamber of Commerce!
Because of the cooperation platform of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, the cooperative relationship between the five major families has continued to upgrade, and they have successively integrated the administrative management resources and cultivation resources of their respective families, and successively established today's Haiya City and Haiya Sect.
Just like there are often five of the Four Heavenly Kings, Han Fulai’s so-called four founding families of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce are just the official propaganda of the Haiya Clan today. But any cultivator who understands this period of history knows that the Haiya Clan’s
There were originally five founding families in total!
As the Haiya Chamber of Commerce becomes more powerful, the five major families of the Haiya family also begin to seek expansion.
However, as the aftermath of the second Tiandao crisis gradually dissipated, by the time the Haiya Chamber of Commerce monopolized the sea trade business and turned its attention to Zhongzhou Continent again, the relatively advantaged geographical location along the southeastern coast of Zhongzhou had already been re-divided by major cultivation forces.
In terms of sphere of influence, the only area left that can continue to be expanded by the Haiya Chamber of Commerce is the Tianshu Mountains, where monsters are entrenched and the terrain is dangerous.
At this moment, the human race has achieved an absolute military advantage over the monsters. It is only a matter of time before the Wuliang Sword Sect frees up its hands from other areas of Zhongzhou to eliminate the monsters entrenched in the Tianshu Mountains.
The Haiya Chamber of Commerce is not willing to wait for the Wuliang Sword Sect to clean up the mess. After all, if the Tianshu Mountains are defeated by the Wuliang Sword Sect, the Wuliang Sword Sect will never allow the already quite powerful Haiya Chamber of Commerce to get involved in this area.
So the five founding families of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce decided to strike first and conquer the Tianshu Mountains before the Wuliang Sword Sect could take action!
Although the five major families of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce are equally matched in terms of financial resources, the Ye family of Zhongzhou has the strongest combat power, because the Ye family of Zhongzhou not only has Golden Core Stage monks in charge, but also possesses peerless gods brought from the Ye family's sect in West Jizhou.
Soldier——Mountain Eagle Sword!
With the strong financial support of the Haiya Department, the Haiya monks used money to build a huge city on the main peak of the Tianshu Mountains, which is today's Tianshu City.
Even the ancestors of the Ye family in Zhongzhou invited Ye Lun, the then head of the Shenxiao Sect, the famous cultivation economist and master of formations from the Ye family's sect in the West Jizhou, to personally set up the Nine-Turn Tianshu Formation.
.
However, this behavior of killing first and reporting later, colluding with foreign forces for external expansion, soon aroused the high vigilance of Bo Qing, the head of the Wuliang Sword Sect at the time.
If the disorderly expansion of cultivation capital is allowed, the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, which spans the two cities of Haiya and Tianshu, will probably become the most powerful local force in Zhongzhou. Therefore, as the Wuliang Sword Sect gradually consolidates its position as the overlord of Zhongzhou, Wuliang
The top leaders of the Sword Sect issued a tough statement, demanding that Tianshu City and Haiya City be split up.
Faced with the strong pressure exerted by the Wuliang Sword Sect, huge conflicts arose within the Haiya Sect.
The Tianshu City Faction, headed by the Ye family, believes that they should accept the terms of the Wuliang Sword Sect. After all, Tianshu City faces a huge threat from monsters. If Bo Qing is offended, the Wuliang Sword Sect only needs to let it go, and Tianshu City will inevitably be destroyed.
Once upon a time;
The Haiya City Sect, headed by the four major families in Haiya today, believes that the Wuliang Sword Sect's random splitting of vassal sects has aroused resistance from all local forces. As long as the local sects unite and the law does not punish everyone, they may not be unable to resist.
Resist the pressure exerted by the Wuliang Sword Sect.
However, the ancestors of the Ye family did not agree with the ideas of the four major families in Haiya City. Although the Wuliang Sword Sect could not wipe out all the local sects, it would not be a problem to use Tianshu City to scare the monkeys.
Although other local sects verbally support the Haiya Sect, they will definitely not dare to use force to confront the Wuliang Sword Sect when the time comes.
Considering that the Ye family in Zhongzhou had put all their chips in Tianshu City, the ancestors of the Ye family resolutely decided to surrender to the Wuliang Sword Sect and cut off from the Haiya Chamber of Commerce.
However, in the eyes of the four major families in Haiya City, this behavior is undoubtedly a naked betrayal!
If the founding family, who knew the inside story of the Haiya Sect so well, defected to the Wuliang Sword Sect, this would undoubtedly seriously threaten the survival foundation of the Haiya Sect.
After all, the Haiya Chamber of Commerce started out as a money laundering business and has done countless shady underground transactions. Now that your Ye family says it's time to clean up and go ashore, how should our remaining four families deal with it?
This is completely taking the lifeblood of the four major families as a token of fame!
Considering that Ye Lun, the head of the Shenxiao Sect, the largest backer of the Ye family in Zhongzhou, has exhausted his lifespan, and that the Ye family in Zhongzhou and the Ye family in Xijizhou have completely separated, the four major families in Haiya City have decided that they would rather not have Tianshu City.
Use thunderous means to deal with the Ye family in Zhongzhou!
So the four major families in Haiya City joined forces to make a plan. On the surface, they approved the Ye family's request for separation. Then, on the pretext of discussing the details of the separation, they lured all the direct members of the Ye family to Haiya City and brazenly murdered them.
Zhongzhou Ye Family.
The bloody methods of the Haiya system shocked the entire Zhongzhou.
The Wuliang Sword Sect definitely could not tolerate such arrogant slaps in the face by the Haiya Clan, so Bo Qing, the head of the Wuliang Sword Sect, immediately sent people to take over Tianshu City, used force to split up the Haiya Clan, and then brought the Ye family to Tianshu City.
In the name of the Shanying Sword, the magic weapon of the Hub City, he supported the remnants of the Ye family and established the Shanying Sect to compete with the Haiya Clan.
Since then, only four of the five founding families of Haiya City have remained. The Ye family of Zhongzhou has disappeared in the long river of history, and the huge investment of Haiya Department in Tianshu City has also been in vain.
On the surface, it seems that the destruction of the Ye family is just a mutual conflict within the Haiya system, but as the remnants of the Ye family, the Mountain Eagle Faction knows that the reasons behind it are not that simple.
According to the legend passed down by successive heads of the Mountain Eagle Sect, the descendants of the Ye family hold in their hands the secret that can completely subvert the Haiya Sect!
The Haiya Chamber of Commerce was jointly founded by the five major cultivator families in order to stay together. In order to prevent the brothers from fighting each other, the five major families once asked the masters of the Shenxiao Sect to build a secret room, which contained all the black materials of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce. Only the direct descendants of each family
Only the heir can open the secret room and store or take out these black materials.
These black materials are like nuclear weapons, which not only give the Haiya Clan endless political chips, but also make the entire Haiya Clan irreversible. Han Fulai also hinted to Yang Lu in a subtle way, saying that these black materials are the four major families of the Haiya Clan.
The main means of mutual checks and balances.
The relationship between the first and second leaders of most cultivation sects is actually as strict as Chen Ming and Fei Fan. However, because of the existence of these black materials, the Su family and the Han family, which do not have golden elixir monks in charge, can still confront Jiang Hua'an.
