Ancestral Star, Phantom Palace.

"Chen Ruo, my father has something to ask you for."

Zi Bingyuan stood at the door and hesitated for a long time, and finally knocked gently on the wooden door.

With a "squeak", the door opened on its own as if being pulled by invisible hands. Zi Bingyuan couldn't help but be a little stunned. He had come several times in the past few months, but was always rejected. Unexpectedly, Zi Chenruo was actually willing to let in today.

He enters the house.

"If I'm just sending a message, anyone can do it. I shouldn't bother my eldest brother to drive there in person, right?" Zi Chenruo stood up, his eyes filled with clear tranquility.

Zi Bingyuan was silent for a while, then changed the subject and said: "Chenruo, you haven't seen anyone these days. Are you practicing alone in this quiet room just to consolidate your realm?"

"Brother, you are still the same as before, not allowing me to retreat at all and insisting on asking for an answer." A trace of anger flashed in Zi Chenruo's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

Zi Bingyuan stared at her without blinking and said in a deep voice: "Because you are already in the true soul state, I don't want to be wary of you changing your mind at the most critical moment of the battle."

Zichenruo lowered his eyelids slightly, walked past him and walked out the door, saying lightly: "There are some things that I have chosen to forget. Please don't remind me of them again, okay? I'm already tired."

Zi Bingyuan opened his mouth, followed her a few steps, and said anxiously: "It's not that my brother has to force you, and it's not that we have to make things so tense. The main thing is that this is related to the destiny of the family, and to my entire phantom."

How can the future of our clan tolerate even the slightest carelessness? Besides, little sister, before you..."

"That's it, I don't want to argue anymore." Zi Chenruo adjusted his sleeves and walked faster and faster.

Zi Bingyuan also seemed a little worried: "But this matter will eventually be made clear! Otherwise, neither you, me, nor my father will ever be able to untie this knot."

Zi Chenruo looked at him calmly: "Isn't what I said clear enough?"

Zi Bingyuan hesitated for a moment, then heard Zi Chenruo say: "You never want to hear what I say, but you want me to obey your instructions unconditionally. For your plan, it is best for me to kill him with my own hands."

,Yeah?"

"That's not what I meant!" Zi Bingyuan said angrily: "Little sister, why are you becoming more and more unreasonable after you came out of Senluo Domain?"

Zi Chenruo said lightly: "Yes, of course I am unreasonable, because the reason is on your side, and I will never take it. If there is anything wrong, it will be a big label of not caring about the fate of the family, as if I

A sinner from the beginning."

Zi Bingyuan said anxiously and angrily: "No one says you are a sinner! But little sister, think about what you have done. When we let Yu Ling go, we endured it. If you go and take care of the remaining members of his old army, I will too."

I endured it, but you went too far and actually rescued those two Yuanling clan members! Now that you have arrived at the True Dao Realm and you are not participating in our clan's battle plan against the Northern Territory, look at you, you still look like Her Highness the Spirit Girl.

What!"

Zi Chenruo said coldly: "Yes, if I wasn't Your Highness the Spiritual Girl, why would I have endured loneliness and hardship when I was twelve years old, wandering alone in the seventeen realms just to unlock the sealed nodes one by one?

.Even when I was in the Ming Realm, if Yu Ling had tried to stop me, I would have died a long time ago. I am afraid that you are still here underground today, unable to escape, and you still have the leisure to stand here and accuse me?"

Her eyes, which had always been gentle and peaceful, were actually tinged with a bit of coldness, and the soul power of the true Tao realm was hidden, making Zi Bingyuan feel suffocated.

Zi Chenruo didn't give him a chance to refute, and turned around directly through a corridor and arrived in front of Wanxiang Palace.

At this time, Zi Bingyuan finally caught up and called out urgently: "Little sister!"

Zi Chenruo turned a deaf ear, she didn't want to continue arguing with her relatives needlessly, nor did she want to waste her words in vain, because no one would give in on this matter, it was a dead end.

Seeing her like this, Zi Bingyuan could only sigh: "Forget it, let's talk about it later when we see my father."

The two of them climbed up the stairs together. When they reached the last step, the door of the Wanxiang Palace slowly opened automatically, and they saw the Phantom Spirit Emperor with his back to them, looking up at a vast star map.

I don't know what his expression is.

"Chenruo, Bingyuan, come here." Phantom Spirit Emperor said without looking back.

"I have met my father, where is my second brother?" Zi Bingyuan walked to his father's side, while Zi Chenruo remained silent.

"He has already gone on a mission." The Phantom Emperor's finger lightly crossed the star map and landed on a point, "What's going on with Luanya Bridge now?"

"Still under the control of our clan, the northern warriors are only keeping tabs on the other side of Luanya Bridge, but they have not made any offensive moves yet, and according to the intelligence from all parties, they have not made any corresponding plans." Zi Bingyuan said.

"Don't you think it's quiet in the North? You actually let us infiltrate." The Phantom Spirit Emperor frowned slightly.

"My son can understand my father's caution, but warriors have no way to resist mental control. In addition, Du Yichen has been missing and lacks a leader. They may also want to resist, but they are more than willing to do so. After all, Tai Ye

After the battle of Xingyuan, only three or four out of ten of the northern border masters were left, and Huayun Valley was robbed in vain, and is now under our control."

"I didn't think much about it at first, but according to the latest news, the leader of the Western Alliance, Yun Cheng, is Yu Ling. This matter has been confirmed beyond doubt. The cultivators of the Ancestral Star have gathered on the Hundred Gu Star, and they are probably discussing how to deal with our clan.

"A sneer escaped from the corner of Phantom Spirit Emperor's lips.

Zi Bingyuan glanced at Zi Chenruo and saw that she just pursed her lips slightly and did not react too much. Then he said: "I believe that my father has made arrangements. What can a bunch of bereaved dogs do if they get together?"

A big thing? But it gave us an opportunity to take advantage of it. I'm afraid Yu Ling will lose her head with this move."

"The Baigu Star side will proceed as planned, and the defense of Luanya Bridge will also be strengthened. Although a full-scale attack will be launched soon, this strategic location must not be lost. I always feel that there is something hidden in the north, so

For example, Yu Ling's father, the master of the North Gate of Jiuchen Gate, with his strength at the peak of the Immortal Realm, there is currently no master who can compete with him in the clan, so you must pay attention to his every move." Phantom Spirit

The Spiritual Emperor's Way.

Zi Bingyuan thought for a while and said: "To be honest, Erchen thinks that the identity of the North Gate Master is very problematic. He should also be a member of the Yu family in Mingyu. Why does Yu Ling dare to expose his identity so brazenly? Beixuan

As the strongest man in the North, you still want to remain anonymous?"

"The only people he is afraid of are people from the Daoyu Galaxy." The Phantom Spirit Emperor pondered.

"So we might as well..." Zi Bingyuan said tentatively.

"No." The Phantom Spirit Emperor shook his head, "Our ultimate enemy is Daoyu Galaxy after all. Selling him out is a short-sighted act, and we still need to leave a way out for the future."

"Does the father want to..." Zi Bingyuan opened his eyes in shock and said in disbelief: "But they will not give in. If they do not expand to obtain more resources, our clan will be unsustainable!"

"It's just preparations. This battle is inevitable. Only after our clan wins can we take the initiative in negotiations." The Phantom Spirit Emperor said calmly.

Zi Bingyuan frowned deeply: "Father, I know that we should not underestimate the heroes of the world, but the rise of our clan will only get faster and faster. Sooner or later, we will be able to occupy the entire Wuya. What is the need to fight with those group of heroes?"

Negotiating with mortals like ants?"

"What if the other party is not a mortal? I think it is necessary to re-examine certain issues." The Phantom Spirit Emperor waved his hand, "You go down first, I will give you a task later, and now I have to talk to Chenruo.

"

"This... son, please retire." Zi Bingyuan had no choice but to give a salute and turned to leave.

When he had gone far, the heavy palace door closed with a creak. Emperor Huanlingling sat down tiredly, raised his hand and said, "Chenruo, you can sit down too."

Zi Chenruo sat quietly opposite him, still not speaking.

After a moment of silence, Phantom Spirit Emperor suddenly asked: "Chenruo, do you hate dad?"

Zi Chenruo shook his head.

"You really don't hate it?"

"I have forgotten all the bad things in the past." Zi Chenruo said.

"But I haven't forgotten." The Phantom Spirit Emperor said.

There was a strong bitterness on his face: "I only have you as my daughter, and if there was even the slightest possibility, I would not let you endure all this suffering. Maybe I shouldn't have let you go to the Seventeenth Domain alone.

"

Zi Chenruo said calmly: "I think it's very good. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have met so many trustworthy companions, let alone have the chance to meet him."

Phantom Spirit Emperor's cheeks twitched, but he did not get furious. Instead, he asked: "If Yun Cheng is Yu Ling, did he go to Senluo Domain to find you last time?"

"Um."

"What did he tell you?"

"I didn't say anything." Zi Chenruo saw that Phantom Spirit Emperor didn't believe it, and added: "In such a short time, what can I say? Talking about the experience in the past few years is not enough."

The Phantom Emperor smiled bitterly, hearing his daughter's hidden dissatisfaction.

"I originally wanted to force you to forget him, but I didn't expect you to remember him more firmly..." The Phantom Spirit Emperor sighed.

"I just don't understand why we insist on forcing him to be against us even though he has nothing to do with the Yuanling tribe in the Daoyu galaxy," Zichenruo said.

"The five major spiritual tribes never intermarry unless there are special circumstances. What's more, the Yuanling tribe is our enemy. Even if he cares about you, how can he leave his mother and people behind? As long as he returns to Yuanling

The clan, within three years, will definitely become our clan’s formidable enemy.” Phantom Spirit Emperor said in a deep voice.

Zi Chenruo suddenly felt tired and said lightly: "Is this what you asked me to say?"

The Phantom Emperor softened his tone and said: "Chenruo, it's not that I don't think about you, I also hope that you can get your own happiness, so there are some things that I have been thinking about, and I have finally figured them out.

"

Zi Chenruo was shocked and looked up at him.

"I need to verify a very important guess." The Phantom Spirit Emperor also looked at her, "Last time, his sister Bei Ran seemed to be suffering from some kind of strange disease. It took a lot of effort to calm her down. She was so domineering.

The power... makes me feel a little familiar. Recently, one of the main reasons why the Dao Ling clan has left our clan alone is to use our hands to find out the hidden remnants of the Xuan Ling clan. These two things are the same.

connect……"

Zi Chenruo probably understood what he wanted to express, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"According to what Long Chenyu and Wu Ming said, Yu Ling, who has cultivated in the Blood Coagulation Realm, has extremely strong Xuanli Qi. What's more important is that when Yuan'er used Zi Annihilation before, his reaction was restrained at first.

, but then suddenly returned to normal, and ended up tied with Yuan'er in that situation. This incident is enough to explain some problems, although I don't know how Yu Ling is compatible with the two major bloodlines." Huan Lingling

Imperial Way.
