"So, I am telling you this news to demonstrate my sincerity."
"If you team up with us, I'll provide the route and some important information about that place."
"Little..." Xiao Yilang was about to blurt out the word "little ancestor" but swallowed it back silently, then coughed uncomfortably.
He lowered his eyes to look at Yun Zheng, and said in a tone that was uninhibited but also a bit serious: "How about it? Can you team up with us?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Zheng turned around and looked at the man in white.
The man in white pursed his lips and said slowly, "No."
As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Yilang's face darkened slightly.
Mo Jing and Yan Chen originally wanted to go together to see the inheritance in the forbidden formation, but since the Emperor refused, he must have his reasons, so they had no objection.
When Rong Shuo saw Yun Zheng looking at him, his eyes softened a little and he explained in a gentle voice, "We'll go by ourselves."
Xiao Yilang: "..."
Yun Zheng looked up at Xiao Yilang, whose face darkened slightly, and said with a smile, "It's a pity that we are not destined to be together. Young Master Xiao can find a second team on his own. Our team is quite weak, and I'm afraid we will be a drag..."
"Are you weak?" Xiao Yilang looked at the four of them with a strange expression.
Yan Chen nodded and continued expressionlessly: "I am the weakest."
Mo Jing sighed, "I'm weak too."
"I'm weaker." Yun Zheng shook her head with a sad look on her face.
Lord Emperor didn't say anything, but just looked at Yun Zheng quietly.
Xiao Yilang: "..." Are you here to compete with others to see who is weaker?!
"So, see you again if we're lucky!"
In the end, Yun Zheng and his group went to Nanyan Forest on their own.
Xiao Yilang stood there for a long time, unable to come back to his senses, until Wen Heming came over and called him, then he reacted.
He suddenly looked towards the entrance of Nanyan Forest. Where were those people? Where had they gone?!
His mind went blank just now, and his body stood there stiffly and hesitantly, completely unable to react.
Could it be...
Lord Qingfeng attacked him? !
Wen Heming saw his dazed expression and felt a little indescribable for a moment. It seemed that Brother Lang had become so easily startled since he met that little ancestor.
Could it be that the beating he received from that blue-clothed warrior last time has left him with some mental problems?
"Brother Lang, can't you reach an agreement with them?"
"Yeah." Xiao Yilang responded with a bad look on his face. The negotiation was over before it even started.
…
Zhongtian Domain.
Imperial family.
In the solemn hall, a spirited middle-aged man in a black brocade robe sat at the head of the table. One of his elbows rested on the table, and in the other hand he held a string of Buddhist beads, turning them back and forth regularly.
"Has anyone in the three lower realms found anyone of the Di family's lost bloodline?"
The elders of the Di family looked at each other in confusion, feeling uneasy.
Among the elders, a younger one stood up, raised his hands in a bow, and respectfully reported: "I sent people to Cangzhou and made a rough inquiry. There is no one in Cangzhou who knows pupil skills."
"There is no such thing in Yusen either." Another elder stood up and reported.
The elder with the flowery beard who was sitting at the end also stood up and respectfully replied, "I haven't heard of it in the Nanyang airspace either."
Elder Hua Huzi paused, his eyes slightly turned, he took two steps forward and said seriously:
"Master, although the Lower Three Realms are not that big, our Di Family is searching without telling the people in the Middle Heaven Realm, so the search will be very slow."
"The Lower Three Realms Sect Competition will begin soon. Our Di Family has a good relationship with the Shen'an Sect. Miss Youyou is also practicing in the Shen'an Sect. I think that when the Shen'an Sect sends people to observe the Lower Three Realms Sect Competition, our Di Family should also send a few people to accompany them."
"By then, almost all the disciples from the lower three regions will be gathered together, which will make it easier for us to find them!"
A tall elder sitting on the right heard his words and said sarcastically:
"Third Elder, are you getting senile? The Three Realms Sect Competition won't be held for seven or eight months, and now our ancestors are asking us to find the bloodline soon! We don't have time to wait!"
"The Great Elder is right." Several other elders echoed with approval.
At this time, the youngest Seventh Elder said, "I think the Third Elder is right. The Lower Three Realms Sect Competition is a perfect opportunity."
"We can't wait."
For a while, the seven elders split into two factions and kept arguing with each other.
Suddenly, a low roar was heard.
"Have you had enough of the quarrel?"
In an instant, the hall fell silent.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and saw Emperor Yuan in a black robe staring at them with deep eyes, which made the seven of them feel guilty.
A wave of sadness rose in Di Yuan's heart. He swept his glare towards the seven elders, "I don't know if you have searched diligently, but the one with the bloodline chosen by our ancestor has the potential to revitalize our pupil technique clan in the future."
"None of you seven collateral branches can awaken true blood pupils! Currently, only some pink pupils have been awakened, and there are only a few of them."
Although their Di family still has a good foundation, it has been on a downward trend over the years.
The disciples of this generation of the Di family have nothing to show for themselves.
Even his granddaughter Di Youyou can only support the occasion.
His son Di Nian never returned, and his daughter Di Lan disappeared for more than ten years.
The main lineage is declining, and the seven collateral lines are not doing their best and are constantly fighting among themselves...
If the ancestors were not still around, their Di family would have become a prey to other families long ago.
The entire Di family is facing internal and external troubles.
Di Yuan asked a soul-searching question, "Do you really want to wait for the Di family to fall?"
As soon as these words came out, the seven elders felt embarrassed. They actually did not want to find the person who had gone away, because they were afraid that after she came back, the resources of their side branch might be reduced.
However, they overlooked one layer.
That is, the Di family has been on a downward trend, which involves the interests of the entire family.
The Great Elder immediately responded with a smile: "Master, we will look for it even more diligently, don't worry!"
The other elders also echoed.
"Yes, yes, we must find her back."
…
Nanyan Forest.
There are quite a few magical herbs and medicines in this dense and dangerous forest.
So Yun Zheng and Yan Chen picked the fruits as they walked.
Mo Jing's job is to help them eliminate potential dangers, such as companion beasts and various spirit beasts.
Rong Shuo just acted as a background, watching their actions.
Along the way, they reaped a lot of rewards. Yun Zheng directly put these spiritual herbs and medicines back into the Fengxing space, and Dajuan became a little expert, helping Yun Zheng to preserve these spiritual herbs and medicines.
Avoid Erbai and Sanfeng from stealing food.
Yun Zheng looked at them and smiled, "Next, we may have to spend a few months in this Nanyan Forest."
