Chapter 530 Ineffective Selling
The pistil looked at Ning Wengui with surprise, while the leader lowered his head, took a sip of tea, and sighed, "A prodigal son is not worth keeping."

The pistil wasn't stupid either; it quickly realized the possible relationship between Ning Wengui and Lin Zhao, and its attitude towards Ning Wengui became a little more friendly, saying, "Miss Lin is currently treating the Crown Prince of the Eastern King's injuries."

Upon hearing this, Hei Zhu looked at Dong Wang, frowned, and asked, "What happened to Ye'er? Is it serious?"

Compared to the feigned concern and infighting surrounding the Northern King faction, the Black Lord showed considerable care for the Eastern King faction.

After a moment of silence, the Eastern King reported on the fact that his son possessed the remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon, had a purer bloodline than his own, and that his lifespan might be shortened.

The Black Lord frowned: "How could the remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon appear in my Black Dragon Clan? And that Demon Clan... it seems my Black Dragon Clan isn't entirely at peace either. Does my brother mean that Fellow Daoist Lin can retrieve the remnant soul?"

Xuan Cang continued, "Yes, A Bao's bloodline is no less than mine. It's because A Bao once had a remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon in his body, which was extracted with the help of Miss Lin."

After hearing this, Kuro had no choice but to believe it.

After all, Po's biological mother was just an earth dragon, yet she was able to give birth to Po, whose bloodline purity was no less than that of Xuan Cang. There must have been some kind of change in the middle.

Now it makes sense.

After a brief moment of thought, the Black Lord concluded: "This matter cannot be ignored. Issue the order to thoroughly investigate the entire clan. My Western King lineage will be handled by Xuan Cang and his wife. As for the Northern King lineage... let's just leave it to the Northern King. They are busy with their wedding. So I will personally take charge of the Northern King's side. If there is any disturbance, detain him immediately. The decision will be made by the Elders Council based on the situation."

Xuan Cang replied with a "yes" while holding the pistil.

The two originally intended to take Abao away, but seeing how happily the Black Master and Abao were interacting, they exchanged a glance and decided to leave the child there for the time being while they went to do their work.

Black Master's feelings for Po are genuine. After all, compared to his son, who is grumpy, stubborn, and headstrong, the gentle and obedient Po is obviously more to Black Master's liking. Also, the phenomenon of grandparents favoring their grandchildren is common to almost every intelligent species.

Looking at Hei Zhu's appearance, the leader turned around with emotion, pointed at Hei Zhu and A Bao, and sincerely asked Ning Wen Gui, "Wen Gui, when will you and Xiao Lin give me a grand-disciple?"

Ning Wengui: "..."

……

When Lin Zhao came out, she was quite shocked to learn that everything had been settled. She had thought that, according to Xuan Cang's description of the Black Master, it would take some effort to get him to accept the pistil. She didn't expect it to be so smooth.
The new information revealed in Xuan Cang and Ci Rui's words left Lin Zhao completely bewildered. She asked in surprise, "Master? When did I meet Master?"

"Could it be that you've mistaken me for someone else?"

Following Xuan Cang and Ci Rui's directions, Lin Zhao arrived at the place where the leader was temporarily staying and immediately understood why.

"Would you like to ask about returning?"

Lin Zhao asked, "Did you ask the leader for help? How did you know about my encounter with Xuan Cang's female flower here?"

Ning asked Gui, "Qu Shu told me that."

Lin Zhao: "..."

Sometimes, it's not good to trust Qu Shu too much.

However, if it's Qu Shu, then there's no problem.

Qu Shu did indeed possess a strange ability; he could befriend anyone he wanted. "Thank you for your help this time." Lin Zhao pondered for a moment, then thanked Ning Wengui. Just as she was about to say something, a woman stepped out from behind Ning Wengui, holding a handful of melon seeds and looking at the two of them with bright, piercing eyes.

Lin Zhao: “?”

Ning Wengui knew his master had come out from Lin Zhao's expression, and turned back to look helplessly.

The leader, caught red-handed by his disciple, wasn't embarrassed at all. Instead, he laughed and said to Lin Zhao, "Want to come in and talk?"

Lin Zhao bowed slightly to her as a gesture of respect.

Since the leader is Ning Wengui's master, he should know her identity.

In terms of status, the Ancestral Phoenix Emperor is above the Five Ancestral Dragon Lords. He performed this salute purely because the other party was his friend, master, and had helped him.

Once the three entered the room, the leader gestured for Lin Zhao to sit down.

"I knew it! Why did he turn down all those beautiful fairies I picked out for him?"

The leader rested his chin on his hand, stared at Lin Zhao for a long while, and then his gaze toward his disciple became somewhat subtle.

It seems like... there's a hint of disdain in it?
“Those old fogies in the Ancestral Phoenix Plane are lucky. After the fall of the Blazing Emperor, not only did they produce a Ji Wantang, but they also produced a you.”

Ji Wantang's name was known throughout both the upper and lower realms. At that time, there were few geniuses in the Ancestral Dragon Plane who could compare to Ji Wantang. However, because Ji Wantang's temper was unpredictable, they still had some psychological comfort. Then, Lin Zhao suddenly appeared and defeated Ji Wantang.

I wonder what kind of luck the Ancestral Phoenix Plane has had over the years.

However, in their Ancestral Dragon Plane, the younger generation has become increasingly inferior over the years, with a mixed bag of good and bad. Take the Immortal Sect for example; if it weren't for Ning Wengui's appearance, the leader really wouldn't know who to choose as his successor.

Lin Zhao laughed and said, "You flatter me, Your Excellency. In terms of talent, Wen Gui is no less than me."

The leader shook his head, having a good understanding of his disciple: "The Purple Eye Glazed Body is second to none in terms of aptitude, but if this child continues down this path, he is destined not to become an Emperor-level expert."

Lin Zhao then fell silent.

Ning Wengui said, "In ancient times, not all those with purple eyes and glass bodies achieved the Emperor level. There are countless paths to the Great Dao, and I will find my own way."

The leader glanced at him, disapproving but not saying anything. He simply looked at Lin Zhao and said, "I suppose His Majesty's desire to connect the two planes stems from his awareness of the calamity facing the cultivation world?"

Lin Zhao's eyebrows twitched as she looked at the leader.

The leader said, "The calamity that didn't truly end even after the fall of the Creator God is about to begin again, and this round will only be more terrifying. Only immortals who have reached the level of Emperor or above are qualified to fight head-on. As for the Upper Realm, there are currently less than a hundred Immortal Emperors, and most of these Immortal Emperors have been sleeping since ancient times. It is unknown how much of their fighting power they still possess."

When Lin Zhao first heard about realms above True Immortal, he felt they were somewhat distant.

The leader met Lin Zhao's gaze and said meaningfully, "The cultivation world... has no true gods left, and I don't know how we will survive this calamity."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao sensed the difference between the upper and lower realms. According to You Chen, the upper realm had already deduced a solution, while the leader had only touched upon these truths but did not know how to resolve them.

"Very well, there's no point in discussing these matters further. Let's get back to my disciple. Your Majesty, you see, although he's not fit for the position of Imperial Consort, he's more than qualified to be a concubine, isn't he?"
