Chapter 2400: Chapter 2400: Plane War

Zhou Yu smiled faintly.

Xu Ling’s reaction showed that her Dao heart was firm.

She wouldn’t be easily disturbed by external matters.

Zhou Yu said with a smile:

"Sit down and let’s talk."

Xu Ling bowed again.

"Yes, Senior Zhou."

Then, Zhou Yu and Xu Ling took their seats.

Zhou Yu casually waved his hand, took out some spirit fruits, and placed them in front of Xu Ling.

Seeing the spirit fruits in front of her, and feeling the rich spiritual energy emanating from them, Xu Ling didn’t recognize them, but she knew they must be something good.

Zhou Yu spoke directly:

"I invited Daoist Xu over this time for a matter!"

"If I’m not mistaken, Daoist Xu hails from the Ice Emperor Domain and has some ties with the Ice Emperor Wolf Demon, correct?"

Xu Ling did not expect Zhou Yu to inquire about her origins.

However, there was nothing to hide.

"Senior Zhou, indeed, I come from the Ice Emperor Wolf Demon clan, but I am not of the direct lineage. People like us, who are not of the direct lineage, usually travel outside to seek our own opportunities after reaching adulthood."

Zhou Yu nodded.

"Then, I would like to ask you about someone."

"This person’s name is Bing Hua!"

"Have you ever heard of her?"

Upon hearing the name, Xu Ling’s face stiffened, and she revealed a surprised look.

"Senior Zhou, Bing Hua is the ancestor of my lineage. She should have been in seclusion for at least a thousand years. Senior... how do you know of her?"

Hearing this, Zhou Yu was also taken aback.

"Bing Hua is your ancestor?"

Xu Ling immediately said respectfully:

"This matter, I would never dare to deceive you, Senior."

Zhou Yu was suddenly shocked in his heart.

He didn’t initially understand why Elder Fei asked him to deliver an item to someone he didn’t know at all.

Now, hearing Xu Ling say that Bing Hua is her ancestor,

Zhou Yu suddenly felt a soul-shaking sensation.

Could it be that Elder Fei, through some incredible means, calculated that he could find Bing Hua’s descendants?

This method is simply too profound.

For a moment, Zhou Yu’s expression was somewhat dazed.

Until Xu Ling’s voice rang out again, awakening Zhou Yu.

"Senior Zhou, what’s wrong with you?"

Zhou Yu came back to his senses and smiled faintly.

"I never expected to find the right person so quickly."

"Since Bing Hua is your ancestor, could you please introduce me to her? I need to meet her."

"Ah?"

Xu Ling was utterly shocked.

Zhou Yu actually wanted to meet her ancestor?

This...

For a moment, Xu Ling truly didn’t know what to do.

After all, she didn’t know why Zhou Yu wanted to meet her ancestor.

Was this a good thing, or a bad thing?

However, Xu Ling calmed herself and said:

"Not to hide anything from you, Senior Zhou, although Bing Hua is my ancestor, there are at least hundreds of branches like ours after Bing Hua."

"And although I am a direct branch of Bing Hua’s lineage, I have been away from the Ice Emperor Domain for so long that I currently don’t know the exact situation in the Ice Emperor Domain."

"I also don’t know if Ancestor Bing Hua is currently in the clan."

"So, I can’t give you a precise answer right away."

Zhou Yu smiled faintly.

"No problem."

"This is understandable."

"By the way, you mentioned that your branch is a direct lineage of Bing Hua."

"Who is the head of your branch?"

Xu Ling immediately replied:

"It’s my second uncle."

Hearing this, Zhou Yu thoughtfully nodded.

"In that case, I’ll visit your second uncle first."

"Daoist Xu, do you think this matter is convenient?"

Xu Ling was actually struggling in her heart.

As she thought earlier, she didn’t know whether this matter was good or bad.

Therefore, it was very difficult to answer.

Finally, Xu Ling took a deep breath, gathered her courage, and asked:

"Senior, may I ask, what is the reason you wish to see Ancestor Bing Hua?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu immediately saw through Xu Ling’s concerns.

He smiled apologetically.

"I forgot to explain the reason to Daoist Xu."

"I am meeting Bing Hua on the recommendation of a senior to deliver an item."

"Deliver an item?"

Xu Ling was caught off guard.

"What item?"

Zhou Yu shook his head slightly.

"I don’t know either."

"I cannot open this item; perhaps only Bing Hua herself or her direct kin can open it."

Hearing this, Xu Ling immediately understood.

"I see."

"Thank you, Senior, for informing me. Now I am relieved."

"When do you plan to set off, Senior? I can take you back."

Zhou Yu said with a smile:

"I’m ready at any time."

Xu Ling thought for a moment and said:

"Then three days later. I have some personal matters to handle."

"Alright."

After chatting casually with Zhou Yu for a bit, Xu Ling took her leave.

Zhou Yu was not stingy and let her take all the spirit fruits.

Xu Ling, naturally, was very grateful.

Meanwhile, during Zhou Yu and Xu Ling’s conversation.

Elsewhere.

In a mysterious pavilion within Fengyuan City.

At this moment, seven cultivators were discussing some matters.

Among them, an elderly woman with silver hair frowned deeply.

"According to what you’ve said, this person cannot possibly join our Fengyuan City’s Elder Council?"

Another middle-aged man sighed helplessly.

This man was the Golden Cicada.

"I’ve spoken to him already."

"All sorts of reasoning have also been explained."

"We have also shown our utmost sincerity."

"However, Daoist Zhou indeed has no intention of joining."

Upon hearing Golden Cicada’s words, another elder spoke up.

"In recent years, our Fengyuan City’s Elder Council has always maintained about ten members."

"It was relatively stable."

"However, a hundred years ago, when the alien race attacked the city, our Elder Council lost two Integration Realm Elders in succession, including Elder Luo, who was among the top three in strength."

"This was an incalculable loss for our Fengyuan City’s Elder Council."

"I heard that this Daoist Zhou, though young, has extraordinary talent and considerable strength."

"If he could join us, he might be able to fill the gap left by Elder Luo to some extent."

"But he insists on not joining, which is troublesome."

"If this continues, the strength of our Fengyuan City will inevitably weaken."

"And what’s even more troubling is that there are already signs of that major issue."

"Hao Yuan Heavenly Venerate and Miao Hong Heavenly Venerate, both Heavenly Venerates, have predicted that at most, within a thousand years, that major event will occur."

"In such a short time, if our Fengyuan City is not fully prepared, I’m afraid we won’t be able to protect this city in the end."

As soon as these words were spoken, the others all appeared moved.

Golden Cicada’s complexion also changed drastically, and he said:

"Elder Gu, the major event you refer to is the plane collision?"

Elder Gu nodded.

"Exactly this event."

"What?"

"Isn’t that just a rumor?"

"How could it actually happen?"

"Could there be a mistake?"

For a moment, the others were all utterly shocked.
