Chapter 444: The Shocked Su Family Ancestor [Subscribe]

Jiufeng Ridge.

After leaving Qinglian Temple, Zhou Chun returned to Jiufengling as quickly as possible.

At this time, Lin Hongyu was still in charge of Jiufengling. After Zhou Chun came back, he immediately told Qing Weizi about his attitude.

After listening to Zhou Chun's retelling, Lin Hongyu only hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, "Joining the Tianling Army is fine, but there is one thing Qingweizi must agree to: not to mention my identity to other Jindan-stage cultivators, and not to spread it to the Hualong Sect!"

"Grandma, you are right to worry. We really need their consent to this."

Zhou Chun nodded slightly, feeling that her request was necessary.

In fact, Lin Hongyu has not appeared in public for decades. In addition, her cultivation has now reached the Golden Core Stage, so she can completely change or conceal her face so that ordinary cultivators of the same level cannot see her true identity.

Therefore, as long as she doesn't actively use the "Secret of Dragon Transformation", ordinary people can't tell that she was once the Red Dragon Guardian of the Dragon Transformation Sect.

The only thing that could possibly expose her true identity is the magic weapon [Flame Dragon Ring].

This item is a magic weapon recorded in the top-level technique that Lin Hongyu practices. If the Hualong Sect knew that she possessed this magic weapon, they would most likely be able to discover her true identity.

However, this is not something that ordinary Hualong Sect monks can understand or know, and the spies planted by the Hualong Sect in Jingguo may not be able to see this treasure.

In this way, as long as the three major sects do not disclose Lin Hongyu's true identity, Lin Hongyu and the Zhou family can receive less attention and criticism.

The key is that Zhou Chun is also confident that he can get Qing Weizi to agree to this matter.

After all, Qing Weizi still wanted him to become his registered disciple and represent Qinglian Temple in competing for the title of "Seven Heroes of the Heavenly Spirit".

Therefore, after reaching an agreement with Lin Hongyu, Zhou Chun went to Tuyunling to discuss going to the battlefield with Zhou Mingde.

At this time, the news of Zhou Chun killing "Corpse General" Jiang Zhong in battle had already reached Zhou Mingde's ears. Seeing Zhou Chun return safe and sound, Zhou Mingde was filled with joy and congratulated and praised him.

But after listening to Zhou Chun’s experience of his trip to Qinglian Temple, the smile on Zhou Mingde’s face suddenly stopped.

He frowned and immediately looked at Zhou Chun and said, "It's easy for Fellow Daoist Lin to join the Tianling Army. This is what we expected in advance."

"But Zhengchun, I don't quite agree with you competing for the title of 'Seven Heavenly Spirits'!"

As Zhou Chun expected, Zhou Mingde's first reaction to this matter was to oppose it.

This was exactly why he didn't immediately agree to Qing Weizi's concerns.

If he had agreed at that time, there would be no room for regret. When Zhou Mingde knew about it, even if he didn't say it, he would definitely be very unhappy in his heart.

But now Zhou Mingde would only explain his own views to him and would not be angry with him.

After expressing his opposition, Zhou Mingde saw that Zhou Chun hadn't spoken, so he looked at him seriously and said, "You should know that you just killed Jiang Zhong, the 'Corpse Demon General'. Once this matter is made public, the Yuanmo Army and the Corpse Demon Cult will definitely want to get rid of you as soon as possible. If you go to the battlefield now, wouldn't it be a good opportunity for them?"

"Besides, you are the head of my Zhou family after all. Even if you become Qing Weizi's disciple and become his registered disciple, the people in the 'Seven Heavenly Spirits' and those who want to compete for this position will not truly treat you as a core disciple of a major sect. They will definitely exclude you and target you. At that time, I'm afraid Qing Weizi may not be willing to protect you with all his strength!"

Of course Zhou Chun understands all these principles.

But he also has his own ideas.

He immediately looked at Zhou Mingde and said, "Grand Elder, what you said makes a lot of sense. I have never believed in Qing Weizi, but if I can become Qing Weizi's disciple and compete for the 'Seven Heavenly Spirits', not only will my own cultivation be smooth and I will obtain many treasures, but I will also be able to add a talisman to my Zhou family in the future."

"Just imagine, if I become one of the 'Seven Heavenly Spirits' and make great contributions to resisting the invasion of the Yuanmo Army, and my name spreads to all countries, then after the war, no matter who wants to deal with our Zhou family, they will have to take this into consideration."

"And if I can successfully become one of the 'Seven Heavenly Spirits', maybe within thirty to fifty years, I will be able to successfully form a pill. By then, wouldn't your long-cherished wish, Grand Elder, be fulfilled?"

Hearing what he said, Zhou Mingde was speechless for a moment.

Indeed, competing for the title of “Seven Heavenly Heroes” has its pros and cons.

He was worried about the drawbacks and used this to persuade Zhou Chun to give up.

Now Zhou Chun was using the benefits to persuade him, and he couldn't refute it directly.

Especially Zhou Chun’s last sentence, which hit his soft spot.

You have to know that he will be turning 400 in a few years. According to the maximum life span of a Purple Mansion cultivator of 480 years, he only has 70 to 80 years to live.

But in fact, he knew in his heart that the time he could really contribute to the Zhou family would not exceed fifty years.

Fifty years later, even if he had not passed away, he would certainly be too old to do anything for the Zhou family.

Therefore, if he could see a Jindan-stage cultivator appear in the Zhou family when he is still at his prime, he would truly have no regrets in his life!

Zhou Chun obviously understood this, and this move hit his soft spot, making it impossible for him to utter any words of objection for a long time.

"If you can't make up your mind, Grand Elder, you might as well wait until I go to the Su family and the Moon Wheel Sect before making a decision. I plan to go and talk to Senior Su and the others first to see what they think about this matter!"

Seeing that Zhou Mingde was so confused that he couldn't speak, Zhou Chun didn't urge him too much. Instead, he changed the subject and talked about his other plans, as a way to give him a way out.

Sure enough, after hearing what he said, Zhou Mingde quickly relaxed his expression and nodded at him, saying, "Not bad, not bad, Zhengchun, your plan is very good. It is indeed better to inform Senior Su and the others about this matter in advance, otherwise they may blame you for hiding it from them in the future!"

Seeing that he agreed, Zhou Chun quickly left Tuyunling and went straight to the Su family in Jiangzhou.

At this time, the evil cultivators were causing chaos everywhere in Jingguo, and it was actually not very safe for a Purple Mansion Stage cultivator like Zhou Chun to travel far away alone.

He would be easily discovered by the demon cultivators' spies, who would then notify other Purple Mansion stage demon cultivators to ambush and kill him.

But Zhou Chun even killed Jiang Zhong, the famous "Corpse Demon General", so how could he be afraid of other Purple Mansion Stage demon cultivators?

Moreover, he knew very well that with the deaths of Jiang Zhong and the three Purple Mansion Demon Cultivators, there might not be many Purple Mansion Demon Cultivators in Jingguo. At least there were no powerful characters in the several states under the jurisdiction of Qinglian Temple.

Zhou Chun had nothing trouble along the way and soon arrived at the Su family mountain gate.

After arriving at the Su family, Zhou Chun went to see his Taoist partner Su Yuzhen as usual.

Su Yuzhen's cultivation at the moment is stuck at the barrier of the late Purple Mansion stage, and he has not yet broken through to the late Purple Mansion stage.

However, Zhou Chun knew that with her superior spiritual roots and the unique and mysterious Su Nu Xuan Gong she practiced, this barrier would not be able to hold her back for long.

I am afraid that it will take ten to eight years at the longest, or three to five years at the shortest, to successfully break through to the late stage of Purple Mansion.

And with the help of the Su family's ancestor and Su Yunniang, two Jindan-stage cultivator elders, Su Yuzhen doesn't have to worry about the spiritual objects for forming the core. Maybe they are already ready now.

At this time, after the two met and expressed their feelings to each other, Su Yuzhen looked at Zhou Chun and smiled and said, "Now that the demon cultivators are rampant outside, my husband is not in the family mountain gate at this time, and you specially came to the Su family to visit me, but what happened?"

Hearing her words, Zhou Chun said confidently without blushing, "Madam, you really understand me. Something did happen recently that made me and several elders a little undecided. I would like to ask for your and the ancestors' opinions."

"Then I will go with you to see the ancestor!"

Su Yuzhen nodded slightly, and immediately led Zhou Chun to the cave of the Su family's ancestor.

With Su Yunniang's success in forming the elixir, Su Yuzhen is now second only to the first person in the Su family.

No cultivator in the Su family dared to go against her will.

As a result, they were all polite to their son-in-law Zhou Chun and did not dare to neglect him in any way.

Only Su Yuzhen would dare to do something like what he is doing now, taking outsiders directly to the cave residence of the Su family's ancestor without informing them.

When Zhou Chun saw the Su family's ancestor, the Su family's ancestor looked at him unkindly and said, "You came here uninvited at this time, there must be something extraordinary. You are not going to ask me to do something for your Zhou family again!"

No wonder he and Su Yuzhen both said this.

The truth is that Zhou Chun had had several such "criminal records" before. Now seeing Zhou Chun coming to the Su family under such a tense situation, their first reaction was that he had something to ask for again.

It must be said that this view is indeed a bit of an underestimation.

But Zhou Chun didn't want to get angry. After all, he did have many criminal records before, so it was no wonder that others thought so.

At this time, he could only laugh dryly and said, "Grandfather, you are joking. I am not that shameless!"

Aren’t you thick-skinned?

The Su family's ancestor glanced at Zhou Chun and just sneered.

Zhou Chun could only pretend he didn't hear this and continued, "I came to the Su family to pay my respects to the ancestor because I am undecided about an important matter. I would like to ask you and Yu Zhen to help me discuss it." "Oh, from what you said, this matter must be extraordinary. Let me hear it first."

The Su family's ancestor raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Chun with a little surprise.

Although his words and demeanor just now were impolite, he believed that he knew Zhou Chun fairly well.

Knowing that Zhou Chun was a man with strong opinions and ideas, if the matter was not very important, Zhou Chun would definitely not have traveled all the way to the Su family to ask him for advice and help in making a decision at this time.

So at this moment, Zhou Chun's words aroused his curiosity.

After hearing what he said, Zhou Chun immediately told him how he killed "Corpse General" Jiang Zhong, and also talked about Qing Weizi wanting to accept him as a registered disciple and support him in the competition for the "Seven Heroes of Heavenly Spirits".

As Zhou Chun expected, after hearing that he had actually killed the famous demon cultivator "Corpse Demon General" Jiang Zhong in a battle, both his Taoist partner Su Yuzhen and the ancestor of the Su family were so shocked that they opened their mouths wide and looked at him in shock, unable to speak.

"Are you kidding me? Has Jiang Zhong, the 'Corpse General' who was listed among the 'Seven Demons of the Yuan Demon', really been killed by you?"

The Su family's ancestor looked at Zhou Chun with his mouth wide open, almost suspecting that he had just heard it wrong.

Su Yuzhen also looked at Zhou Chun with her beautiful eyes wide open, as if she couldn't believe that the person beside her had such great abilities!
"How can I joke about this? Besides, it won't be long before the news spreads. Even if I have the guts, I won't dare to use this to tease you, the ancestor!"

Zhou Chun smiled faintly, seeming to be very satisfied with the reaction of the Su family ancestor.

In the past, he had to hide his incompetence, and the Zhou family also had to hide the existence of Lin Hongyu. Even though he was often looked down upon and ridiculed by the Su family's ancestor, he dared not say anything and could not refute.

But now, as Lin Hongyu stepped onto the stage, he himself was ready to become famous. He could finally hold his head high and show off his strength in front of the ancestor of the Su family and vent his anger.

At this moment, looking at Zhou Chun, who looked indifferent but actually proud, the Su family's ancestor opened his mouth, speechless.

Even if he had a problem with Zhou Chun, he knew in his heart that Zhou Chun would never joke about such things.

But he just couldn't believe it no matter what. In his eyes, the son-in-law of the Su family, who was only there to help his beloved younger generation practice, was actually a hidden dragon.

However, he, who always prided himself on having a good vision, did not realize this and was kept in the dark.

The psychological blow this caused to him was indeed huge.

He had misjudged. This time he had really misjudged!
In his eyes, Zhou Chun was not even a qualified son-in-law!
This is clearly a son-in-law with great potential!
It's clearly a hidden dragon!
At this time, the Su family's ancestor had mixed feelings in his heart, and his mood was so complicated that it was difficult to describe and express in words.

However, Su Yuzhen didn't think about him that much or in such a complicated way.

After the shock, she felt extremely happy and proud of Zhou Chun from the bottom of her heart.

She quickly said, "My dear husband, you have kept this a secret from me, and I didn't know anything about it. My dear husband, you have already become so powerful. How did you do it? How did you acquire such a powerful ability?"

As she spoke, she looked at Zhou Chun with curiosity and admiration, waiting for his answer.

Although the Su family's ancestor didn't say anything, he pricked up his ears and looked at Zhou Chun, his eyes full of curiosity.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun couldn't help but smile faintly and said, "It's nothing, actually. It just developed my Zhou family's beast taming skills to a high level."

The Su family's ancestor sneered at his words that flattered the Zhou family.

I thought that your Zhou family was only a Jindan family for eighteen generations. Even if you really have some extraordinary skills, it is impossible for you to cultivate a cultivator at the level of "Seven Heroes of the Heavenly Spirit".

But of course he couldn't say this now, otherwise what if Zhou Chun slapped him in the face with the facts?
Therefore, he could only secretly send some instructions to Su Yuzhen and let Su Yuzhen speak for him so that he could maintain his demeanor as an old ancestor in the Jindan stage.

Su Yuzhen was a little speechless about this, but after all, he was her own elder and the one who loved her the most.

At this time, she could only pull Zhou Chun's arm and say, "Then my husband, please tell me in detail. I have heard a lot about the fierce reputation of the 'Corpse Evil General' these days. How did you kill this devil?"

Zhou Chun watched this scene and laughed secretly in his heart, but he still gave face to his Taoist partner. He patted the back of his hand and said, "Since Madam wants to hear it, then I will naturally tell you in detail."

As he spoke, he did not even look at the ancestor of the Su family, but just spoke in an excited tone about his battle with the "Corpse Evil General" Jiang Zhong.

What I said here was actually what I had said to Qing Weizi before.

Despite this, the Su family's ancestor and Su Yuzhen were also shocked after hearing his story.

After listening to his entire story, the Su family ancestor no longer hesitated about his identity. He looked at him in surprise and said, "Good boy, I didn't expect that you have quietly cultivated two third-level monsters with extraordinary bloodlines. No wonder you dared to fight against Jiang Zhongfang!"

At this time, there was no way to deny Zhou Chun’s previous words that flattered the Zhou family.

Obviously, although it is basically impossible for there to be another person in the Zhou family who can train two third-level monsters with extraordinary bloodlines like Zhou Chun, it is not wrong to say that Zhou Chun has developed the Zhou family's beast taming skills to a high level.

At this time, the Su family's ancestor finally recovered from the shock brought by Zhou Chun's killing of "Corpse General" Jiang Zhong, and discovered another important information revealed in Zhou Chun's words.

He couldn't help but look at Zhou Chun and asked, "What about that Elder Lin you mentioned? When did your Zhou family get a Jindan-stage cultivator like him?"

It was indeed a very shocking thing that Zhou Chun killed "Corpse General" Jiang Zhong, but the presence of a strange Jindan-stage cultivator in the Zhou family was also no small matter.

Especially when the Su family ancestor heard Zhou Chun say that Lin Hongyu had actually refined a fourth-level zombie, he was even more shocked.

Because even though he had been in Dan formation for hundreds of years, he couldn't say that he could safely kill a fourth-level zombie.

After all, the water-based skills he practiced were not good at dealing with such monsters.

Zhou Chun did not hide it from the Su family's ancestor, because if he hid it from the other party at this time, Lin Hongyu's identity would be exposed in the future, which might cause a rift between the two families.

So he explained the origins of Lin Hongyu, and emphasized that the Zhou family had obtained the understanding of Qinglian Temple and helped to resolve the hidden dangers.

However, this incident obviously shocked both the Su family's ancestor and Su Yuzhen.

But after seeing the Su family's ancestor's expression change for a long time, he looked at Zhou Chun with a complicated expression and said, "I see, your Zhou family is really bold. You dare to take in the remnants of the Hualong Sect and even support her in forming a pill!"

"Juniors and elders, there is nothing we can do about this. After all, the Zhou family was surrounded by powerful enemies at the time, and the environment they were in was extremely dangerous. Without a Jindan-stage cultivator in charge, there would be no sense of security at all!"

Zhou Chun spread his hands and explained helplessly.

Hearing his words, the Su family's ancestor remained silent.

After hearing two such shocking things today and learning about two hidden secrets of the Zhou family, the ancestor of the Su family now has to question everything Zhou Chun said.

Deep down, I no longer dared to believe which of Zhou Chun’s words were true and which were false.

But he knew very well in his heart that no matter whether what Zhou Chun said was true or false, from now on, the Zhou family was truly on an equal footing with their Su family.

Zhou Chun was a junior whom he could no longer humiliate.

Thinking of this, he immediately said to Zhou Chun: "You must be tired after standing for so long, why don't you sit aside and talk first!"

Just from this one sentence, we can tell that his opinion of Zhou Chun has changed greatly.

After all, he never asked Zhou Chun to sit down and talk before.

Since Zhou Chun had stopped pretending, he naturally wouldn't do anything artificial at this time. He bowed and said, "Thank you, ancestor, for giving me a seat."

Then he sat down on the chair that Su Yuzhen brought over.

After Zhou Chun sat down, the Su family ancestor sorted out his thoughts carefully, reviewed Zhou Chun's previous words, and looked at Zhou Chun thoughtfully and asked: "Zhengchun, you said at the beginning that you came to the Su family to visit me, the ancestor, because you wanted me to help you make a decision on an important matter. Could it be about the Qingweizi Temple's master accepting you as a registered disciple?"

"Yes, this matter is of great importance. I have to listen to the intention of Master Wei Zi, and I also need to get the support of the Moon Wheel Sect. I didn't dare to agree directly at that time. I plan to come back and consult the elders first. Please help me with the discussion!"

Zhou Chun nodded slightly and expressed his concerns in a serious tone.

After hearing what he said, the Su family's ancestor's expression suddenly became serious.

After hesitating for a while, he looked at Zhou Chun and asked, "Then let me ask you, old ancestor, if you really go to the battlefield and face the remaining people in the 'Seven Demons of the Yuan Demon', are you sure you can remain undefeated? Do you have a way to escape from the hands of the Jindan stage demon cultivators?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun immediately replied: "I am not bragging about this. With the third-level thunder python in hand and the subsequent cultivation method of "Heart Lotus Orthodoxy" promised by the master of Qingweizi Temple, I will definitely not be afraid of those demon cultivators!"

"As for escaping from the hands of a Jindan-stage demon cultivator, I don't have any good ideas. I can only withstand a few moves from an ordinary Jindan-stage cultivator!"

Of course, he was not in a position to reveal the fact that the Golden-Armored Mountain Turtle could burrow into the earth and carry people with it. After all, it was his life-saving trump card, and it might also expose the Golden-Armored Mountain Turtle's background.

After all, the Su family's ancestor is an outsider and cannot be fully trusted like the elders in his family.

Unexpectedly, after hearing his answer, the Su family ancestor quickly looked at him with a serious face and said: "It depends on my opinion. If you don't have a trump card to escape from the hands of the Jindan stage cultivator, it's best not to go to this battlefield. Otherwise, even if you have invincible strength in the Zifu stage, you are likely to die on the battlefield!"

I can write more, but I'm afraid you can't wait, so I'll just update 6,000 words first. I'll try to update early tomorrow, so that I can get the boutique badge the day after tomorrow! Damn Qidian, I don't know when the boutique badge will be issued. When I update in the evening, I will lose 7 or 8 average subscriptions, and then it will be less than 3,000. Damn!
