Zhou Yi suppressed the anger in his heart. After speaking, he personally used a bloodline technique to deduce the situation. “Fortunately, he’s still alive. It seems someone rescued him.” He continued, “That place should be the Shenyang Zhao Family. I don’t know who left this shadow stone, but there are more images inside. One of those two people should be from the Shenyang Zhao Family.”
“Big Brother, what are we going to do now?”
“In the footage, our Zhou family descendant seems to be on good terms with the other two.”
“Zhou Chang, you stay behind and secretly protect our Zhou family descendant. Zhou Ping and I will take care of something.”
“What is it?”
“The images show that people from the Ye Family injured someone from the Shenyang Zhao Family. The Shenyang Zhao Family will not let this opportunity slip by.”
“They will definitely go after the Ye Family, so we need to make some arrangements.”
“You stay here. You can also secretly warn the Ye Family. Our Zhou Family should not miss this chance.”
A bad feeling rose in Zhou Chang’s heart.
Zhou Yi took out a bronze token and handed it to Zhou Chang. “Keep this safe and give it to our Zhou family descendant when the time comes. Back then, our Zhou Family fell into turmoil because of this item. Although we never figured out the reason, this lifetime is a golden era. Our Zhou family descendant carries the Fortune of our Zhou Family. I hope he can uncover its secrets.”
After saying that, Zhou Yi patted Zhou Chang on the shoulder and left with Zhou Ping.
Zhou Chang watched their backs, his eyes turning moist. He quickly steadied himself and headed toward the Shenyang Zhao Family.
Halfway there, violent fluctuations suddenly erupted within the void passage.
Zhou Chang was directly thrown out of the void and smashed heavily onto the ground.
He lifted his head and saw a figure standing before him.
“Who are you?”
“Come with me.”
With that, the person grabbed Zhou Chang and left.
Zhou Yi and Zhou Ping hurried nonstop, arriving at the place where they had first met Dongfang Wudao.
They then sat down.
Inside the Dongfang Family, a figure appeared before Dongfang Wudao.
That person was holding someone in his hand. It was Zhou Chang.
Zhou Chang knelt on the ground, staring at Dongfang Wudao in shock. He had never imagined that the one who intercepted him would be from the Dongfang Family.
“Young Master, he has been brought back. They already know it was the Ye Family.”
“They should also come looking for Young Master soon.”
“This matter also involves the Shenyang Zhao Family.”
Dongfang Wudao tapped the armrest lightly with his fingers.
Cold sweat poured down Zhou Chang’s face. The sense of danger in his heart grew stronger. Get faster updates on g.com.
After the shadow guard finished speaking, a bronze token appeared in his hand.
Dongfang Wudao looked at it thoughtfully. There was no related memory in his mind. However, a tiger was engraved on the token. It somewhat resembled a tiger tally.
“Young Master, I suspect this token is related to a mysterious army.”
“Oh? Tell me.”
“There is a tiger engraved on it, similar to the tiger tallies used by major empires, but this one carries an ancient aura. It should not be from recent eras.”
“Our clan records once mentioned that the Hongmeng Immortal Domain had an Immortal Empire called the Great Yu Immortal Empire, which later fell for unknown reasons.”
“According to the records, the Great Yu Immortal Empire had an elite corps called the Swallowing Heaven Guard. They were extremely mysterious, covered head to toe in black armor, with only their eyes exposed.”
“It’s just unclear whether this token comes from that era.”
[System prompt: Host obtained the Swallowing Heaven Guard Tiger Talisman of the Great Yu Immortal Empire. Zhou Shian’s Fortune Value decreased by 500,000. Host obtained Reversal Value 500,000.]
The system voice sounded. Dongfang Wudao smiled. He had not expected the shadow guard’s guess to be correct.
“Lock him up in the dungeon.”
“He cannot die yet. If he dies, those two old Zhou Family fellows will retreat.”
“Young Master, someone delivered a letter to the Dongfang Family today.”
Another shadow guard appeared before Dongfang Wudao.
Dongfang Wudao showed a hint of curiosity.
“Dongfang Beichen, personally opened.”
Several words were written on it, and judging by the handwriting, it seemed to be from a woman.
Dongfang Wudao opened it, and the contents came into view.
“Dongfang Wudao was jointly knocked off Soul-Breaking Cliff by Si Hanyue and Su Chen.”
“Dongfang Wudao is still alive at the Soul-Breaking Cliff Bottom, but his life is in danger.”
Dongfang Wudao looked at the message with a playful expression.
It seemed an interesting person had appeared in this world again.
He just did not know where they came from.
“Have you investigated it?”
“It is related to the Yuwen Family of the Creation Realm.”
“Oh? The Creation Realm. Shen Qingqiu is also there, right?”
Dongfang Wudao thought for a moment, then sent a voice transmission to another shadow guard. “Didn’t you say Zhou Shian still had two people with him? Go investigate their identities.”
“Could it be that another Chosen One has appeared?”
While Dongfang Wudao was arranging the investigation, over in the Creation Realm at the Yuwen Family.
Yuwen Lingyun sat beside a pool, her fair jade feet gently swaying in the water.
Several koi swam over to her.
“I hope the Dongfang Family rescues Dongfang Wudao. That way, I’ll become his benefactor.”
“If anyone can hold back the Shenyang Zhao Family, it’s only the Dongfang Family.”
“Maybe if Dongfang Wudao doesn’t experience those deaths at Soul-Breaking Cliff, he won’t blacken in the end.”
A figure appeared beside Yuwen Lingyun.
“Miss, everything has been handled.”
“Alright, I know.”
“Oh right, what has Yuwen Qianqian been doing lately?”
“She’s been cultivating, reading, and practicing calligraphy.”
“Tsk tsk, worthy of the female lead. She still has the leisure for such refined hobbies.”
“Have you arranged what I told you to do?”
“Don’t worry, Miss. It’s already been arranged. I didn’t expect she’d be so scheming.”
“Also, keep an eye on the steward in my residence. Don’t let him discover you. That old fellow is a Saint King expert who has been hiding his strength.”
“Rest assured, Miss. I know he is a Saint King.”
“But Miss, are you really alright?”
“Now even your maids and the steward are all her people.”
“Isn’t it better if they’re all her people?”
“When something goes wrong, we can push everything onto her.”
“Besides, the few people who often worked for me are already dead. Perfect, no witnesses. Some of them were also her people. Otherwise, Yang Qi would have died long ago.”
“There’s also a troublesome person involved. The power behind that person is stronger than the Yuwen Family.”
“But Yang Qi is brothers with that person. If they find out this was Yuwen Qianqian’s doing, hehehe.”
“Let’s go. We should cause some trouble for Yuwen Qianqian, or she’ll start getting suspicious. Beating her up a little is still fine.”
“She’s really good at enduring. Her strength already surpasses mine, yet she can still pretend to be weak and fragile.”
After saying that, Yuwen Lingyun stood up and walked toward Yuwen Qianqian’s residence.
