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

Chapter 522 Heading to the Black Dragon Clan

"However, before we left, the capital city was stabilized by Elder Peacock. However, Elder White Crane was seriously injured, the Swan Clan was in chaos, and alliances of evil thoughts from other worlds appeared in the Bright Hall, the Diyin Sect, and the Hehuan Palace. Especially the Bright Hall, their ancestor led the people to betray them. If His Majesty and Ji Wantang hadn't damaged the foundation of the Bright Hall during the imperial election, the result would probably be even worse now."

With one of the three elders seriously injured and three major powers simultaneously experiencing internal strife and clan infighting, even if the imperial city remains stable, otherworldly evil forces in other regions will respond to the internal strife within the imperial city's forces. This is a significant blow to the Ancestral Phoenix Plane.

Lin Zhao had previously heard from figures from the otherworldly realm that the cultivation world had been almost completely infiltrated, but she hadn't quite understood it then. Now, what was there left to misunderstand?!
The enemies that are directly in front of you are often not the most dangerous.

If things continue to develop this way, the cultivation world may perish at the hands of those unseen forces.

Lin Zhao's sudden rise disrupted their plans, so after Lin Zhao, the Ancestral Phoenix Emperor, left, they launched a riot, intending to force Lin Zhao, whose strength was still weak, to return. They waited around the teleportation array for her, hoping to use her to shake the Ancestral Phoenix Plane.

Lin Zhao clenched his fist and asked, "Do you know why Elder Baihe was seriously injured?"

“Because the leader of the rebels is from the White Crane clan.” Xuan Cang replied, having regained some strength thanks to Lin Zhao’s healing.

"However, Your Majesty need not worry too much. Due to your previous reforms, the power of the higher-ups in the Bright Hall, the Diyin Sect, and the Hehuan Palace has greatly diminished. Other emerging forces and those within them who are loyal to the Ancestral Phoenix Plane are barely able to hold them off. Although the Ancestral Phoenix Plane is currently in turmoil, its foundation remains intact. It is just waiting for you to advance to the True Immortal realm and return to quell everything."

The plane created by the Ancestral Phoenix, like the Ancestral Phoenix herself, believes in the path of absolute power and supremacy, a path that can influence the universe.

Therefore, when Lin Zhao ascended to the position of Ancestral Phoenix Emperor, only she could make the final judgment on this level of turmoil.

However, if one's strength is not at the level of a True Immortal, one cannot suppress those treacherous ministers. If Lin Zhao returns now, he will only become an easy target in the eyes of those traitors.

Having clarified the pros and cons, Lin Zhao let out a deep breath, handed Xuan Cang a pill to repair his internal injuries, and then opened the Heavenly Mirror to inquire about the situation on Chi Ling's side.

After spending a day and a night dealing with the mountain of government affairs, Chi Ling suddenly told her that the turmoil on other continents in the Ancestral Phoenix Plane had been quelled.

Lin Zhao was just about to ask how the problem was resolved.

Another message came through the Tiantong Mirror.

"I gave the order in your name."

It is Qu Shu.

She replied with a thank you.

"No need to thank me. Your help to me far surpasses my help to you. After the engagement was dissolved, I gained the approval of most of the elders of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan and had autonomy. Now I have descended to the Ancestral Phoenix Plane in my true form. Before you return, I will stabilize this empire and the Lin family for you."

Lin Zhao unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought for a moment and replied, "I will ask someone to bring you the Ancestral Phoenix Tail Feather. I will find a way to help you obtain the Ancestral Phoenix's inheritance."

Qu Shu replied with an "okay," and then said nothing more.

Lin Zhao then switched back to her chat with Chi Ling, who also stated that it was Qu Shu, not Lin Zhao, who gave the order at the time. However, Qu Shu demonstrated that she had a marriage contract with Lin Zhao. With the marriage contract in place, Qu Shu was indeed qualified to make decisions regarding matters unrelated to the core interests of the organization.

"Fortunately, the Imperial Consort Qu Shu intervened in time. Otherwise, when His Majesty could not be contacted and turmoil broke out both outside and in the capital, my royal authority would not have been sufficient for me to order the handling of the traitors there."

Lin Zhao saw the words "Imperial Consort" and offered an explanation, while Chi Ling, upon seeing this, advised her not to reveal the matter of the annulment of the engagement.

“The Imperial City needs a leader who can step forward. None of us can do it. It has to be you. But your true form cannot return to the Ancestral Phoenix Plane right now, nor is it suitable for you to return. So it can only be your Daoist partner, Lord Qu Shu, who is the most suitable.”

Qu Shu is not Lin Zhao himself, so the traitor cannot use him to shake the foundation of the Ancestral Phoenix Plane, and must also be wary of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan behind him. Lin Zhao remained silent for a moment, then had no choice but to explain the situation to Qu Shu.

However, Qu Shu did not reply, so Lin Zhao could only say to Chi Ling, "For now, we will follow Qu Shu's lead. We will also give him core power."

Chiling quickly replied with an "okay".

"However, these matters still require your approval in the end. Your Daoist partner does not have the highest decision-making and execution authority. Only the Ancestral Phoenix Emperor, with the strength of a True Immortal, can end this turmoil."

This is also why the elders and powerful figures of the Ancestral Phoenix Plane were unwilling for Lin Zhao to leave.

The Ancestral Phoenix Emperor is the core of the Ancestral Phoenix Plane. Once the monarch is gone, the entire plane will either remain peaceful or fall into a state of leaderlessness if something happens.

Of course, there is another reason.

That is, they can fight against those rebels, but they cannot truly eradicate the evil thoughts of the other world.

Only those who are favored by the entire plane can use the power of that plane to completely eradicate the evil thoughts from the other world.

As Lin Zhao issued a series of commands, Chi Ling and Qu Shu began discussing the adjudication. Only after confirming that the situation was under control did Lin Zhao disconnect the communication and bring his thoughts back to the Ancestral Dragon Plane.

Having experienced the Divine Soul World, she is now infinitely close to the mid-stage of the Integration Realm, but is indeed far from becoming a True Immortal. Therefore, during this trip to the Black Dragon Clan, she must find a way to improve her cultivation and combat power as soon as possible.

Judging from her current situation, if her cultivation reaches the Tribulation Transcending stage, she should be considered to have the combat power of a True Immortal.

Once she conquers the Qing Dynasty, she should be able to attract her eldest brother's attention, and then she can take her eldest and second brothers home together.

The matter concerning the Ancestral Phoenix must be resolved as soon as possible; we cannot delay any longer here.

Lin Zhao turned to look at Xuan Cang: "How did you get injured?"

Xuan Cang said, "I was injured by another black dragon from Wolong Valley that came to assassinate me. Originally, the injury had healed by 20 or 30 percent, but on the way here by teleportation array, the teleportation array malfunctioned and aggravated my injury."

Lin Zhao: "..." Even now, the formation is still unstable?

Having received Lin Zhao's elixir, Xuan Cang had recovered enough to stand up. He took his son from his wife's arms and said, "I will now take His Majesty to the Black Domain, the region where the Black Dragon Clan resides."

The Black Dragon Clan is not like the Red Dragon Clan, which is not well-known. They can be said to be a hegemon in the Ancestral Dragon Plane. Their status in the Ancestral Dragon Plane is even higher than that of the Hall of Light in the Ancestral Phoenix Plane.

Therefore, the area where they lived was the most luxurious city Lin Zhao had seen in the Ancestral Dragon Plane.

Upon entering the Black Domain City, Lin Zhao noticed gazes coming from all directions.

Most of these gazes lingered on Lin Zhao and Ci Rui's beautiful faces, with a particular focus on Lin Zhao. Especially after realizing that the only man who seemed capable of fighting, Xuan Cang, was injured, their scrutiny became even more unrestrained.

Xuan Cang noticed that Lin Zhao's expression turned cold, and he suddenly released a powerful aura. The people were startled and quickly looked away, not daring to look anymore.

"I'm sorry Your Majesty had to laugh at me," Xuan Cang said somewhat apologetically upon seeing this.

"What's it to you? Are we heading towards the area where the Black Dragon Clan's direct descendants live?"

Xuan Cang laughed and said, "Of course not. Although I was driven out by the Black Dragon Clan, I still have some connections within the Black Dragon Clan. Someone will come to pick us up in a little while."
