After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 374 Request
Lin Zhao didn't react much to his words, and asked, "The royal family won't support Lin Zhao, but His Highness the Prince might not, right?"

Chi Ling looked at her for a while: "You're really smart. How did you figure that out?"

Lin Zhao said, "Your Highness never wanted Ji Wantang to rise to power from the beginning. Otherwise, you wouldn't have extended an olive branch to me in such a short time. I am not the first person you have found to fight against Ji Wantang, nor will I be the last. But because of your daughter, you will definitely pay more attention to me."

When her daughter was mentioned, Chi Ling's gaze softened slightly.

"Yes, although I don't know why that brat thinks so highly of you, perhaps it's because of your face. I've never seen her trust anyone like this before, except for Ji Wantang back then."

Lin Zhao asked in confusion, "Was the princess also friendly to Ji Wantang back then?"

"Yes, but it was very short-lived. When she discovered that all the men she liked had entered Ji Wantang's mansion and that she had fallen in love with Ji Wantang, she unilaterally broke off her relationship with Ji Wantang."

Lin Zhao: "..." I can only say that they both fit the impression of these two people in her mind.

"However, I did not support her friendship with Ji Wantang in the first place, but fortunately she eventually understood my thoughts."

Ji Wantang's talent is truly terrifying, so terrifying that no one in the Ancestral Phoenix Royal Family can rival her.
The Bright Hall's legacy, capable of crushing ordinary cultivators, was also forcibly endured.

Outsiders all expressed envy when they mentioned that the inheritance from the Bright Hall had brought Ji Wantang a huge boost in her cultivation.

However, only a few powerful forces at the pinnacle of the Ancestral Phoenix Continent knew that every generation of geniuses had attempted to inherit the Bright Hall, but the final result was either death or crippling. Only Ji Wantang emerged from the inheritance ground covered in blood, having raised her cultivation to the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage.

However, since then, Ji Wantang's already unbridled, arrogant and domineering personality has become even more unrestrained. He even dares to kill anyone, and once he does kill, he does so in a very tragic way, leaving no trace of the victim's soul.

This ruthless fighting style was even brought into her battles against the royal family. Yunfei only came to truly hate Ji Wantang after witnessing one of her cousins ​​die at Ji Wantang's hands.

People generally admire beautiful and powerful monks, but no one likes a bloodthirsty demon.

"In short, during this period, I will work hard to win over forces for you and fight against the Bright Hall and the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. With the reputation you have built up before, this is not a particularly difficult task. After all, the Lingtian Pavilion has just announced its friendship with the Phoenix Medicine Sect."

This is Lin Zhao's stance.

With Lingtian Pavilion present, they are no less powerful than Guangming Hall in terms of their position at the top.

"However, among the five giant-level forces on the Ancestral Phoenix Continent, besides the Bright Hall and the Lingtian Pavilion, there are also the Holy Phoenix Palace, the Diyin Sect, and the Hehuan Palace. The first two are alright, but the Hehuan Palace is very likely to support Ji Wantang, because Ji Wantang has the second disciple of the Hehuan Palace's leader in his backyard, and Ji Wantang's second son was born to him."

Upon hearing this news, Lin Zhao was at a loss for words. After a long pause, she could only exclaim, "Ji Wantang truly has achieved success in both family and career!"

When Prince Chiling heard Lin Zhao's complaint, his expression turned strange. He clearly wanted to laugh, but with the sect leader of the Phoenix Medicine Sect listening nearby, he managed not to laugh in such a serious setting: "However, the Hehuan Palace is very shrewd. They won't directly support Ji Wantang. At most, they'll offer some help in secret. Once Ji Wantang reveals her trump card with absolute advantage, they will completely take sides."

In that case, with two powerful forces aligned with Ji Wantang, they could very well stop Lin Zhao before the final battle in the Imperial Election.

Prince Chiling sighed, "As for the Diyin Sect, they have always kept a low profile and never interact with outsiders. I guess they won't support Ji Wantang, and of course, they certainly won't support you either."

During the years that Ji Wantang ruled the younger generation of the Ancestral Phoenix Plane, the Diyin Sect never showed any goodwill towards Ji Wantang, let alone now.

After listening to the analysis, Lin Zhao exchanged a glance with the sect leader and asked, "Does His Highness mean for me to seek the support of the Holy Phoenix Palace?"

Prince Chiling nodded: "Actually, all my previous analyses were based on a conservative approach. But if the Holy Phoenix Palace supports you, then you don't need to be conservative. You just need to go in and fight. Even if ten Bright Halls and Hehuan Palaces came, they wouldn't dare to stop the Holy Phoenix Palace's intentions."

Lin Zhao's eyes widened: "Aren't they all giant-level forces? Is the Holy Phoenix Palace that powerful?"

"On paper, their strength is about the same, but the Holy Phoenix Palace has a direct connection with the Heavenly Phoenix Clan in the Upper Realm, so the Holy Phoenix Palace's hidden strength is unmatched by the other four combined." A connection with the Heavenly Phoenix Clan?

That's it.

Lin Zhao was engaged to the most outstanding prince of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan. Although the prince had never made it public, Lin Zhao knew perfectly well what his position was in the Heavenly Phoenix Clan.

Lin Zhao slapped his forehead: "Your Highness, you shouldn't count on the Holy Phoenix Palace."

They didn't intend to trip me up; that's already incredibly generous of them.

Prince Chiling frowned: "Why? You possess the aura of an ancient phoenix. The Holy Phoenix Palace has shown goodwill towards Ji Wantang, who possesses the aura of a blood phoenix. Your ancient phoenix aura is not much inferior."

Lin Zhao: "Haha."

Seeing that Lin Zhao was unwilling to talk about it, Prince Chiling sighed: "Then we can only hope that you will advance to the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage before the Imperial Election. That way, at least the Hehuan Palace will be wary and will not openly support Ji Wantang."

There is also a worst-case scenario that Prince Chiling did not mention.

That is, if Lin Zhao doesn't make a breakthrough before the Imperial Election, while Ji Wantang makes substantial progress...

At that time, not to mention Hehuan Palace, even the self-proclaimed noble and aloof Diyin Sect would probably support Ji Wantang.

However, after exchanging information, the two also developed their own plans for how to proceed.

After the two finished discussing, Lin Zhao asked, "Your Highness is helping this junior so much, do you have any other requests?"

Prince Chiling paused for a moment: "There is indeed something I would like to ask of you, whether you succeed or not."

Lin Zhao said, "Your Highness, please speak."

"My daughter, relying solely on her cultivation, is unlikely to ascend within a hundred years. If Young Master Lin could lend her a hand when she ascends and bring this girl into the Upper Realm, I would do anything for her."

Lin Zhao slowly frowned: "Why must she be forced to enter the Upper Realm?"

Prince Chiling simply shook his head: "She has a task she must complete; it is her responsibility."

Lin Zhao's eyebrows twitched: "This junior will discuss it with the princess. If possible, this junior will do his best to try."

After the three finished their discussion, Lin Zhao took her leave. The Prince of Imperial Edict looked at Lin Zhao's departing figure, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he said nothing.

He tugged at the corner of his sleeve, then closed his eyes in dejection.

“I never understood why you left your daughter here, and now… it’s your turn to misunderstand me.”

The sect leader naturally heard his words. He had been speculating about Yun Fei's identity these past few days, and now, seeing Prince Chi Ling's reaction, it was confirmed, which surprised him.

"The prince's righteousness."

Prince Chiling remained silent.

"Once the little girl reaches the heavens, I will accompany her to the underworld. I will search high and low, and I will not let her suffer this alone."
