Chapter 816 Youli Now
Lin Zhao shook his head: "Senior is too kind. Even without this talisman, you would have only lost control briefly because of the opponent's move."

Her talisman wasn't powerful enough to completely influence a Celestial Emperor-level expert; at most, it could provide the other party with a sliver of clarity. This was only because her talisman carried the aura of the Ancestral Dragon.

The old man didn't stand on ceremony with Lin Zhao and asked curiously, "Elder Lin, it seems you already knew I was by your side?"

Otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to face a Celestial Emperor-level Phoenix alone, nor would he have approached the Lingxiao Sect before.

Lin Zhao shook his head, not hiding his thoughts from the other party: "If the junior had known, he probably would have acted even more arrogantly before."

Upon hearing this, the old man from the Ancient Dragon Clan twitched his face. So, this girl's previous act of daring to step into the territory of the Lingxiao Sect Master while wearing an invisibility cloak, despite her strength as the Twin Sun Immortal King, wasn't considered arrogant?
If it weren't for her good fortune in activating the teleportation talisman before the surge of immortal energy, and secretly hindering the Lingxiao Sect's perception of her aura, it would be another matter whether this girl could stand here safely.

From the old man's reaction, Lin Zhao understood that his previous luck might be related to the old man in front of him, and immediately thanked him again.

"The clan has also noticed something about Young Master Youli's matter. In addition, the clan is very concerned about the Ancestral Dragon Form and the Ascending Dragon Emperor Technique Spear. Elder Lin, if you have nothing else to do, you should keep the Holy Dragon Emperor Technique Spear with you."

He certainly knew the relationship between the woman in front of him and the Demon Ancestor, and he also understood that Lin Zhao must have had her reasons for handing the Holy Dragon Emperor Spear to Su Bai. However, since this thing had already recognized Lin Zhao as its master, and the clan had even specially sent him to protect Lin Zhao because of this, it showed the clan's attitude.

You should know that even the three young masters back then didn't receive the treatment of being secretly protected by the Seven Yang Immortal Emperor.

When Elder Youliang was initially sent by the clan chief to protect a member of another tribe, he was actually unwilling.

You have to understand that he is almost at the level of an Eighth Yang Immortal Emperor. In the Northern Region, he would be the number one expert without any doubt. Even in a place like the Ancient Dragon Clan where there are many experts, he could be considered one of the top thirty experts. It is one thing for someone with his cultivation to have to protect a junior at the level of an Immortal King, but he is also an outsider who took away the Ancestral Dragon Form.

When he was young, Youliang also longed for the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear. Unfortunately, although he had good talent and character, he was not even qualified to hold the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear.

In this respect, the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear is even more demanding than the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword; it won't even allow those who don't approve of it to touch it. Only those whose bloodline is completely at the same level as the original Ancestral Dragon can use the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear without being approved.

That was the case with Youli back then.

However, this situation is rare even among the Ancient Dragon Clan. Among the younger generation of the Ancient Dragon Clan, only You Li and You Shen can achieve this bloodline. You Quan and You Chen are both a step below.

Since You Shen had been recognized by the Purple Emperor Dragon Bow since birth, he naturally wouldn't look at the Holy Dragon Emperor Spear. In addition, given You Shen's physical condition, it wouldn't allow him to have any desire for this ancient dragon clan's divine weapon.

Thus, the weapon ended up in Youli's hands. Youliang, who wasn't even qualified to touch the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear when he was young, was even less likely to obtain it now that he was older. However, when he learned that none of the ancient dragons in these generations had obtained the Ancestral Dragon Form and the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear, he was still somewhat gloating and relieved.

As a result, on that day, Youli's clone brought the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear down to the mortal realm, and upon returning, he told the clan that the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear and the Ancestral Dragon Form had once again recognized their master.

This news might have shocked others in the clan, but for Youliang it was like a bolt from the blue.

Even though Lin Zhao later helped the Ancient Dragon Clan several times, he still couldn't completely let go of his resentment. Perhaps sensing his mindset, the Ancient Dragon Clan Chief forcibly assigned him to protect Lin Zhao. However, seeing the waves Lin Zhao had stirred up in the Northern Region and the contributions he had made in the Heavenly Phoenix Clan in such a short time, Elder Youliang couldn't help but feel a sense of awe towards Lin Zhao.

While showing reverence, Elder Youliang appeared to remind Lin Zhao to keep the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear with him.

"The longer a weapon spends with its master, especially the peerless divine weapons like the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword and the Holy Dragon Emperor Spear, the more unexpected bonuses it will provide to its master, and the more harmonious the weapons will become."

Lin Zhao scratched his head: "Junior understands. We will retrieve it as soon as we arrive at the central domain. However, does the elder mean that the Ancient Dragon Clan is no longer concerned about the destruction of You Li's physical body?"

When this matter was brought up, Youliang's expression became somewhat complicated.

His cultivation level was high enough to allow him to sit in a high position in the Ancient Dragon Clan, so he naturally knew about the situation of the Seven Star Palace.

"The clan chief has arranged for people to investigate, but it's uncertain whether those people will do their best in the investigation."

If Youli's bloodline wasn't so pure—so pure that the Ancient Dragon Clan couldn't ignore him unless he was an incurable waste—he wouldn't have survived to this day.

The Ancient Dragon Clan had tolerated him for so many years, so there was no reason for them to just watch him die without doing anything. But it was also a bit awkward to do something for him. So the matter was being investigated slowly without any progress. Anyway, no one went to bring Youli's soul back to the Ancient Dragon Clan.

The ancient dragon clan naturally had the resources needed for physical reconstruction, but why give them to Youli?
As the most orthodox pure-blooded member of the Ancient Dragon Clan, Youli needs to rebuild his physical body, and the amount of resources consumed is unimaginable. The Ancient Dragon Clan has been resentful for so many years, and they still cannot treat this junior with a grateful but resentful attitude.

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao pondered for a moment and asked, "Does the elder think Young Master Youli is intelligent?"

In those unfelt years, she and Youli were a couple who loved, knew, and stayed together for countless lifetimes. However, their current situation is completely opposite to the impressions in their minds, or rather, in those non-existent, false years.

She once thought she knew Youli well enough; he was just like her, only his path was more extreme.

But now that he knows his physical body has been destroyed, some strange thoughts suddenly pop into Lin Zhao's mind.

Was the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear deliberately delivered to him, or was it truly unintentional?

She knew that Youli was a scheming, two-faced man who was more interested in siding with the God than with him, but was also worried that the God might fail or turn against him, so he secretly helped her.

But she never considered that if those worlds, which were false and nonexistent to her, were places that Youli had personally experienced, what would be the purpose of his choice today?
Lin Zhao was certainly not so narcissistic as to think that the other party was considering her best interests.

However, the fact that Youlijiang bound his soul to the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear shows that he never believed in the evil thoughts of the other world, but instead believed in the choice of the Creator God.

Do people like this really join the Seven Star Palace just to live better and stronger?
