"Dad, what if he is not dead and is still alive? I can't miss the opportunity to reunite with him..." Chu Qiuchi said unwillingly.
Hearing this, the old man was silent for a moment, and his tone softened.
"Qiu Chi, sometimes you have to accept reality. Since Rong Tianji killed your carrier, how could he possibly leave your son behind?"
When Chu Qiuchi heard this and thought of Rong Tianji's sinister look, her heart suddenly sank.
The old man sighed softly and was about to leave when he found someone holding his legs.
He lowered his eyes and saw that it was Chu Qiuchi.
Chu Qiuchi's eyes welled up with tears. She tried to speak calmly, "Father, Qiuchi has only asked one thing of you in this life, and that is to marry Xiye Weirong. Now I want to ask you for the second thing, which is to open the gate and allow Weirong and I to go to the outer reaches of the Eastern Territory to find the child. I want to see him alive or dead."
"If I were the child left outside the Eastern Territory today, would Daddy come looking for me? Would he come to save me?"
She looked up at the old man seriously.
The old man's expression was moved. He saw blood coming out from between her eyebrows and finally couldn't bear it anymore. He leaned over and raised his hand to help Chu Qiuchi up.
He sighed slightly, "Qiu Chi, Daddy is willing to help you, but it will take some time before the boundary gate can be opened. Now, a major event has occurred in the divine realm above, and the rules and regulations have become increasingly strict. Even I cannot open the boundary gate for you easily."
"What's the big deal?"
"You don't need to know, just wait patiently at the Chu family."
Chu Qiuchi nodded. She knew that something that even her father, the head of the Chu family, couldn't do must be a difficult problem, so she could only wait for a few more days with Wei Rongwai.
Her heart ached when she thought of her child's safety.
"Then Weirong..." Chu Qiuchi asked tentatively.
Hearing Xiye Weirong's name, the old man's face darkened. He said in a cold tone, "Why? Did the Chu family dungeon treat him badly? With his status, staying in our Chu family dungeon is really too high!"
"Dad, he is my husband..."
The old man interrupted in a deep voice, "If he doesn't have my approval, he's not the son-in-law of our Chu family. I still have the final say in the Chu family."
The more he spoke, the angrier the old man became. He glared at Chu Qiuchi angrily and said, "If you had married Huyan Yushu back then, you wouldn't have to live in such a poor place like Wuzhou!"
Chu Qiuchi frowned and retorted with a bit of temper, "Dad, you know I don't like Huyan Yushu. No matter how noble his status is or how rich he is, I don't like him. You've seen it over the years. He has three wives and four concubines. If I marry him, how can I be happy?"
The old man didn't say anything, but just glanced at her.
Suddenly, a spy came quickly to the old man, knelt down and bowed.
"Report!"
"Speak." The old man turned his attention to the spy.
"Master, the master of the Wanqi family sent Wanqi Shan and others to Langzhou to eradicate the Tianshu Immortal Academy, but unexpectedly they were killed in return. Wanqi Shan's arm was broken and seriously injured, and the fifty powerful Heavenly God Realm warriors he led were all wiped out!"
"Tianshu Immortal Academy?" Chu Qiuchi was slightly surprised when she heard this. She had actually heard about the feud between the Wanqi family's master and the Tianshu Immortal Academy, but she didn't expect that the Wanqi family would actually target the Tianshu Immortal Academy again.
However, why was Tianshu Xianyuan able to fight back? Logically speaking, with so many powerful Heavenly God Realm masters, the overall strength of Tianshu Xianyuan should not be able to defeat them.
Chu Qiuchi frowned, and suddenly the image of the girl in red from the competition for the eight immortal academies' spots emerged in his mind...
The old man narrowed his eyes slightly, "Isn't Tianshu a declining immortal academy? How could they have fought back?"
The spy respectfully replied, "My Lord, it was the Fengyun Squad from the Tianshu Immortal Academy who used a formation to annihilate over forty Heavenly God Realm experts. Among them, the senior sister Yun Zheng from the Fengyun Squad, with her seventh-level Heavenly God Realm cultivation, severely injured Wanqi Shan and severed one of his arms, forcing him to crush the Space Stone and flee back to the Wanqi Family."
Chu Qiuchi was stunned for a moment, "Senior Sister... Yun Zheng."
"Do you know him?" The old man keenly noticed Chu Qiuchi's mood changes and asked.
Chu Qiuchi nodded. "I've seen her before. She won first place in the competition for the Eight Immortal Academies' spots a few months ago. However, at that time, she was only at the third level of the Sovereign God Realm. I didn't expect that in just a few months, she broke through to the seventh level of the Heavenly God Realm and was even able to repel the Third Elder of the Wanqi Family. It's truly astonishing!"
When the old man heard this, his eyes dimmed.
The spy continued, "My Lord, there is one more thing. The Huyan family has already sent people to Langzhou."
When the old man heard this, he knew what the Huyan family was planning.
The Huyan family wanted to recruit the eldest senior sister Yun Zheng under their command. After all, she was able to break through to such a realm in just a few months. It was conceivable how amazing her talent was.
And the formation that can annihilate more than forty powerful gods is really attractive.
The old man's expression changed slightly. After sending away the spies, he quickly sent people to Tianshu Immortal Academy in Langzhou.
The Chu family couldn't afford to miss out on such a good talent.
Over the years, the Huyan family has been showing a tendency to overshadow the Chu family, and he cannot allow the Huyan family to obtain more talents.
What's more, he also wanted to meet the senior sister Yun Zheng.
The border is located at the junction of the Tianyin Demon Realm and the God Realm, and there are three major guarding families here, namely the Wanqi family, the Chu family, and the Huyan family.
The three guardian families have a wide range of jurisdiction, for example, they have the right to open the gate.
In fact, the Five States are also under their jurisdiction, while their three major families are under the jurisdiction of the divine realm.
The masters of the three major families were all gods with divine functions. Their status was no lower than that of ordinary gods in the divine realm, and they could also travel to the divine realm unimpeded.
Chu Qiuchi asked seriously, "Dad, are you recruiting them?"
"Um."
After hearing this, Chu Qiuchi stopped talking. In fact, she felt that Yun Zheng was very attractive to her.
However, once Yun Zheng was recruited into the Chu family, she would face much greater crises.
Of course, this is not something she can interfere with, so let Miss Yun Zheng choose whatever she wants.
Now, her only concern is her son.
Chu Qiuchi lowered his eyes slightly, hiding the worry in his eyes.
…
Langzhou, Tianshu Immortal Temple.
All the injured have been treated, and Yun Zheng and the others can finally take a break.
Yun Zheng was so tired that she fell to the ground, no longer caring about her image.
After taking a healing pill, she closed her eyes.
Just lie down and rest.
The little friends were also exhausted. The wounds on their bodies occasionally tore and hurt, and they just lay down on the ground.
If it weren't for the barrier set up by Yun Zheng, people outside would definitely see wounded people lying on the ground in the ruins of Tianshu Immortal Academy.
