Chapter 520: Chapter 318: Talent Restored! The Ancestor’s Trial (Three-in-One Special)
“Buzz!” The spaceship’s hatch opened.
“Let’s go.”
“At this time, the banquet should almost be starting,” said Chen Zilu. “I’ll take you over.”
“Okay.” Jiang Ye nodded.
Boom! Boom!
The two flew out of the hatch, transforming into two streaks of flowing light, heading deep into the mountains.
Only a few seconds later.
In front of a towering palace.
Two streaks of light streaked across, landing steadily on the ground.
Within the palace, many figures had already gathered, their auras powerful and most of them were high-realm powerhouses.
Jiang Ye and Chen Zilu made their way towards the palace entrance.
Before they even stepped through the door.
“Zilu.” A middle-aged man appeared at the door, smiling, “You’ve finally arrived.”
As he spoke.
He suddenly looked at Jiang Ye beside him, “And this is?”
“He is my junior disciple, Jiang Ye.”
After Chen Zilu finished speaking, she introduced, “This is my father.”
“Hello, uncle.” Jiang Ye immediately said upon hearing this.
The middle-aged man, Chen Yuan, nodded slightly, scrutinizing Jiang Ye.
“Junior disciple?”
Bringing him to the birthday banquet? This kid is probably Zilu’s sweetheart, Chen Yuan mused to himself.
Bringing an outsider to the ancestor’s birthday banquet? There’s no such tradition in the clan.
At this moment.
“It was the ancestor who invited him,” Chen Zilu said calmly, as if she knew her father’s thoughts.
“The ancestor?” Chen Yuan was slightly taken aback, his eyes suddenly filled with surprise.
“Uncle,” Jiang Ye suddenly said, “It’s our first meeting, and I haven’t prepared a gift, but please accept this.”
As he spoke.
With a flip of his palm, a fourth-tier treasure appeared in Jiang Ye’s hand.
Chen Yuan looked at the treasure in his hand but did not accept it.
“No need for gifts,” Chen Yuan shook his head, “I don’t care about such things.”
“Since you are invited by the ancestor, you are indeed an ’honored guest,’ please take a seat at the front,” Chen Yuan said.
Jiang Ye was slightly surprised but said nothing more.
“Thank you, Uncle Chen.” He retracted the treasure, then entered the grand hall with Chen Zilu.
Chen Yuan watched their backs, frowning slightly.
“The young one from the Zhou family is here too this time.”
“Why did the ancestor invite both parties?” Chen Yuan frowned tightly, “If the Zhou family sees this, wouldn’t it…”
As a senior member of the Chen family.
Chen Yuan knew very well that Zhou Xingkong and Chen Zilu were not just matters between youngsters but decisions involving the Zhou family’s leaders and certain elders of the Chen family.
It concerns the Chen family’s grand plan for the next century.
Many powerhouses in the Chen family maintain a friendly attitude towards the Zhou family.
But Jiang Ye’s presence would undoubtedly disrupt the harmonious relationship between the two families.
“Forget it.”
“The ancestor’s action surely has his reasons,” Chen Yuan sighed inwardly, “I should mind my own business to avoid displeasing Zilu…”
In his heart, he understood that in the Chen family, despite having many senior factions.
As long as the ancestor lives, it is still the ancestor who has the final say.
…
At the same time.
Jiang Ye and Chen Zilu walked through the door into a spacious reception corridor.
“My father is just like that.”
“Don’t mind him,” Chen Zilu said, “He didn’t mean to dismiss your gift.”
“I understand.” Jiang Ye smiled, “I’m not that sensitive.”
“As long as you didn’t mind.” Chen Zilu glanced at him.
“The only thing that can affect me here is Senior Sister,” Jiang Ye laughed.
Chen Zilu’s face turned slightly red, and she couldn’t help but give him a light kick, scolding, “Behave yourself, don’t act like this when you meet the ancestor.”
“Yes, Senior Sister.” Jiang Ye immediately said seriously.
“…” Chen Zilu rolled her eyes.
Suddenly.
Bzzz! Chen Zilu’s phone vibrated.
“Is it the ancestor?” Chen Zilu checked her phone.
In the next moment, a slight change appeared on the girl’s face.
“Jiang Ye,” Chen Zilu turned her head, “The ancestor wants to see you alone.”
“See me alone?” Jiang Ye was surprised.
“Yes, follow me.” Chen Zilu changed direction.
Jiang Ye immediately followed.
Quickly.
The two took the elevator to the top floor of the palace, heading to a separate office.
They pushed open the door.
Inside the office sat an elderly man with white hair, wearing a white robe. His aura was completely restrained, looking just like an ordinary person.
“Ancestor.” Chen Zilu greeted respectfully.
“Lu, you’ve arrived.” The white-haired old man nodded slightly, then turned his gaze to Jiang Ye, “This young friend must be Jiang Ye?”
“Senior,” Jiang Ye cupped his hands slightly, showing respect.
In his heart, he knew the old man before him, who seemed like an ordinary person.
In fact, he was an ancient powerhouse who had lived for five hundred years, a veritable elder of Blue Star.
The white-haired elder suddenly waved his hand.
With a swoosh~ the door behind them closed automatically, without a breeze.
Having done this.
He looked back at Jiang Ye.
“Not bad, you’re good-looking,” the white-haired elder chuckled, “No wonder Lu is so set on being with you.”
Jiang Ye cleared his throat, “Senior is joking.”
“I’m not joking.”
The white-haired elder’s eyes were sharp, “Young man, I’m not going to hide from you. Lu will be the next successor of the Chen family.”
“I hope she can lead the Chen family in the next century.”
“So, I don’t want her spouse to be someone incompetent,” the white-haired elder stated calmly.
As he spoke.
Bang!
A terrifying pressure suddenly descended upon Jiang Ye.
Instantly, it was as if he was covered by hundreds of towering peaks, the terrifying pressure forced him to bend his posture.
“Ancestor.” Chen Zilu’s face changed slightly.
She never expected that the ancestor would make things difficult right from the start.
Before she could continue speaking, the white-haired elder raised his hand, indicating she need not say more.
Meanwhile, a wave of telekinesis swept through.
Chen Zilu seemed to hear the ancestor’s voice transmission, and her face showed a look of surprise.
