I’m Eight. Surely I Can Establish A Sect, Right?

Chapter 2: Start the Operation

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Ye Yan didn’t know what kind of sect he was going to establish, but from the books he had read in his previous life, he soon set those famous sects as his goal.

If he wanted to build a sect, he couldn’t have only the sect master, so Ye Yan decided to recruit his good friend, Chen Geng, into the sect.

Chen Geng had always had a chivalrous dream to become a cultivator. As soon as he heard that he could join a sect, he immediately slapped his thigh and followed Ye Yan without thinking.

At this moment, the two of them reached the middle of the river. The fishing nets they had set up yesterday had caught a lot of fish. They deftly untied the net, untangled two fish, and started a fire to roast the fish.

“I say, Brother Yan, what kind of sect are we going to build?” Chen Geng turned the fish rack as he said with his eyes full of longing.

Hearing this, Ye Yan smiled mysteriously, keeping him in suspense, “Just wait. When the house is built tomorrow, you’ll naturally know.”

Chen Geng furrowed his brows and muttered “damn it, you’re keeping me in suspense” before sinking into a depressed mood. He didn’t know that Ye Yan was even more depressed than him. The system hadn’t been activated yet, so even he, the sect master, didn’t know what kind of sect he was to build.

As they talked and laughed, the fragrance of the fish wafted out. The two of them couldn’t help but grab one each and began their devour. Nothing was said in the process. After eating two whole fish, Ye Yan roasted another three and wrapped them in lotus leaves. After saying goodbye to Chen Geng, he rushed in a direction.

It was his grandfather’s residence. It should be 3:30 in the afternoon now. Although he had been here for a long time, Ye Yan still didn’t like using the two-hour system. His elder brother, Ye Wen, was learning carpentry from his grandfather.

His grandfather was a farmer, but when he was young, he had learned from an old carpenter who came to the village to stay for a while. The old carpenter didn’t have a disciple, and he was old. Seeing his grandfather so enthusiastic, the other party treated him as his disciple and taught him everything he had learned in his life.

Another thing that made the old carpenter so dedicated was that his only daughter was married to his grandfather, namely Grandma Ye. The old carpenter’s skills had spread far and wide, and many came to him, wishing him to be their master. However, Grandma Ye had taken a fancy to grandpa in the crowd because the latter had been very handsome when he was young.

Therefore, the old carpenter simply handed over his daughter and his skills to his grandfather. Having inherited the skills of the old carpenter, his grandfather’s craftsmanship improved day by day, and he was very famous in the nearby villages. Every two or three days, people would come to his grandfather to customize woodwork.

However, when his grandfather got older, he realized that his sons were all focused on farming and knew nothing about carpentry.

Left with no choice, his grandfather could only place his hopes on his grandchildren. Therefore, Grandpa Ye would always bring the two eldest grandsons of the two branches of the Ye family, Ye Wen and Ye Yan’s cousin, Ye Wu, to learn carpentry during the busy farming season.

Not long after, Ye Yan arrived at his grandpa’s place. He saw his brother as soon as he entered the door. Ye Wen and Ye Wu were learning how to grind wood under the guidance of their grandfather.

“Grandpa, brother, Brother Wu, I’m here to see you,” Ye Yan looked at his grandpa and tried to greet him.

Ye Wen and Ye Wu did not even raise their heads as they nodded in response. Grandpa wiped his sweat and asked, “Xiao Yan, you’re here. Why are you running around outside again? Don’t you know how to help your father? Oh right, why did your father tell me that you want to build a small house? What do you want to do?”

Hearing this, Ye Yan’s mouth twitched, and a bad premonition welled up in his heart.

He quickly opened the lotus leaf package, showing the fish and placing them on the big rock. Then, he smiled apologetically and said, “Grandpa, Brother Wen, Brother Wu, I’ve brought you some good stuff. Remember to eat them. Someone has to look after the firewood at home, so I’ll be leaving first!

As soon as he finished his words, Ye Yan’s figure disappeared at the door, leaving no breath behind. What a joke. According to his father, his grandfather’s temper was much worse than his father’s. If his grandpa knew about what he wanted to do, he would definitely die!

“This little rascal, he ran away pretty fast…” Grandpa Ye took out the tobacco pipe behind him and took a few puffs.

Ye Yan ran back home, sitting beside the wood while feeling lucky. He picked up a chopper and started to chop wood to start a fire.

“Crack!”

While chopping, Ye Yan’s thoughts started to drift.

“The Great Three Thousand Sect System… According to the activation conditions of the system, the future upgrade route should also be in the construction field. However, I’m not sure what kind of sect the system is talking about. I think I’ve heard the words “the great three thousand” in my previous life.”

In his previous life, he had read countless articles and had come into contact with the term “great three thousand” many times. It should be something to do about how big the world was.

“Since it’s the great three thousand, it can’t be related to cultivation, right?” Ye Yan stared at the firewood, talking to himself, “That’s not right. I haven’t heard anything about cultivation for so long either.”

He felt distressed because Dumen Village was a closed village. The mountain roads here were arduous to travel on. Therefore, the villagers would only leave the mountain when there was a need to purchase goods, or there were huge events like weddings and funerals.

Without contact with the outside world, it was hard for Ye Yan to get any news. He didn’t even know the situation outside. The only thing he knew was that Dumen Village was located in Qianhua Town, which was under Yutun County.

“Or is it a martial arts sect?” Ye Yan thought for a while and became more and more certain. After all, even if he was uncertain about the existence of cultivation, martial arts always existed.

However, no matter what kind of sect it was, it had to look like a sect. A small house the size of a pigsty was simply not enough. In the future, they would need a bigger place to build other facilities. Ye Yan looked at the land that belonged to his family and shivered while shaking his head in the next second. To have any thoughts about his family’s land was looking for death…

“The mountain seems pretty good…” He mumbled as he cast a glance at the continuous mountains and rivers in the distance. The space there was vast, and most importantly, no one lived there. Even hunters rarely entered. It should be a good choice to use that place as the base of the sect.

The only obstacle was Ye Dahai, Ye Yan’s father. Thinking of Ye Dahai’s fist, Ye Yan couldn’t help but gulp. The whole matter should work out, right?

“Dammit!” Looking at the countless chopped wood in front of him, Ye Yan suddenly patted his head, “I almost forgot, there must be people in the sect. Two people are not enough!”

That’s right, there were only him and Chen Geng in the sect now, which was far from enough. As such, he set his eyes on people of the same age.

Ye Yan selected two people as his primary targets after a rough selection, which were his big brother Ye Wen and Chen Geng’s elder brother. Both were quite familiar with him, so he would start from them. However, he still had to wait for the small house to be built before he could carry out the next step.

The next day.

“Father!” A loud roar came through the window and into Ye Dahai’s ears. It was so loud that his head was buzzing.

“This rascal…” Ye Dahai gritted his teeth and sat up. He looked at the sky and the veins on his face popped, “What’s wrong with you today? Why are you up so early? Are you trying to kill me?”

Looking at the sky, it didn’t even dawn yet, and his bastard son had woken him up!

“Father! Don’t sleep, don’t sleep!” Ye Yan ran in with a smile and shook Ye Dahai, “My little house!

Before he could finish his sentence, he felt the shadow in front of him suddenly grow, and the shadow of a fist flew over.

“You little rascal, you can’t get up normally, but now you’re here so early just for your house. You’re asking for a beating!”
