Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 311 The Turmoil in Tiandu
A few days later, sure enough, news about Gu Ning's absence from the Grand Elder spread throughout Tiandu, and discussions continued.

In recent days, the way the National Academy has handled matters has made the public feel dissatisfied, and the matter of the Grand Elder has become a point of entry.

"In addition, the Grand Elder also wants everyone to know that he has come to Tiandu." Liu Gu seemed to have a broader perspective than Lin Chen.

The first reason for coming to Tiandu was naturally for Bai Ling, and the second was to fight against the demon race.

Although many of the things that Tiandu has done in recent years have been unpopular with the people, it cannot fall.

Once the demon race takes control of this land, the human race will be completely overrun and may even become a second-class species.

Therefore, it's certain that the Grand Elder wants to get involved.

Sure enough, soon people began to visit the Grand Elder, and his residence was bustling with activity.

Wu Family
"Would the patriarch like to see Yu Xiu?" Wu Xu asked the old man before him.

He was the patriarch of the Wu family, known as Yu Xuzi.

The character "Xu Zi" in Wu Xu's name is derived from one of the characters in his honorific title.

It can be said that when Wu Xu was born, he was already designated as the next sect leader.

Without even looking up, Yu Xuzi said, "You took him to the National Academy?"

"Wu Chen brought it." Wu Xu looked at Yu Xuzi nervously and said, "Ancestor, is there a problem?"

“It’s not a big problem,” Yu Xuzi said. “There are some things you shouldn’t know, but since they’ve come knocking on our door, you should know something about this.”

Wu Xu was taken aback, thinking that the other party was just looking for a disciple, it shouldn't be this complicated.

Even if this disciple were killed by the Wu family, it is not impossible to resolve the conflict.

“You should know about the Eight Trigrams Nine Cities Plan,” Yu Xuzi said.

"Wasn't it already canceled back then?" Wu Xu was taken aback.

"Back then, Tian Shu Pavilion and Zhong Nan agreed that if the Cang Ling Ancient Kingdom remained peaceful within ten years, the entire plan would be cancelled and the Bagua City would be demolished," Yu Xuzi said.

"Are we going to activate this plan?" Wu Xu looked at Yu Xuzi in surprise.

“It’s not just about activating it, but it’s also related to this being called Bai Ling,” Yu Xuzi said.

“She is Zhong Nan’s disciple, so naturally it’s related to her.” Wu Xu wasn’t surprised.

"But she will be the center of attention this time."

"What?!" Wu Xu said, puzzled. "But Gu Ning definitely won't agree."

After saying that, he quickened his pace and said, "No, the Tian Shu Pavilion won't agree either."

“Therefore, she can only be a weapon,” Yu Xuzi said.

Upon hearing this, Wu Xu swallowed hard.

Human weapons!

Is the plan to kill her directly after she completes her goal of suppressing the demon race?
Wu Xu looked at Yu Xuzi with some trepidation. He suddenly remembered that Yu Xuzi had come down from the mountain to hold a meeting before, and said, "You agree as well?"

“This is a foolproof plan,” Yu Xuzi said.

Wu Xu remained silent.

This is an extremely cruel thing for Bai Ling.

But for the Cangling Ancient Kingdom and for Tiandu, this was indeed a perfect solution.

"Ancestor, what should I do?" Wu Xu understood that this matter was of utmost importance; if it were leaked, the Wu family might be doomed.

"Don't get involved in their affairs. As for what the future holds, let them handle it," Yu Xuzi said. "You just need to observe and wait."

"Yes, old man."

Several more days passed, and the National Academy still showed no sign of compromising, which surprised even the Grand Elder.

There are rumors circulating everywhere that are detrimental to the National Academy. The National Academy should invite the Grand Elder over to resolve this issue.

On the contrary, the Grand Elder was getting impatient.

"I have a feeling that Bai Ling's matter is not so simple." The First Elder said, his brows furrowed.

Lin Chen felt the same way. Bai Ling was no longer a contender for the position of Imperial Advisor, and she no longer posed a significant threat to Gu Ning.

"If only Zhang Jin were here." Lin Chen said this with regret, thinking that when he sent Qin Shao Shao back to Nancheng that day, he should have asked Qin Shao Shao to inform Zhang Jin to return to Tiandu.

However, Zhang Jin has already severed ties with the National Teachers' College, clearly indicating his utter disappointment with the college.

"Let's wait and see."

The elder sighed and said, "I've asked around, but no one knows Bai Ling's whereabouts."

Lin Chen and Liu Gu nodded.

Meanwhile, near the southern city, Zhang Jin and Yin Shi led the human forces to capture another city.

"You're getting better." Yin Shi was very happy.

The people in the south are very united, and they have now established their own base centered around the southern city.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Yin Shi felt a powerful force and immediately turned around, where he saw Qin Shao Shao.

"So it was a deity." Yin was relieved.

Li Zhen and the others also saw Qin Shaoshao. He immediately flew over and asked excitedly, "Lin Chen is back?"

"He went to Tiandu." Qin Shaoshao took out the letter written by Lin Chen, handed it to Li Zhen, and said, "He asked me to give this to you."

Li Zhen was stunned for a moment, then opened it and breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Jin and Yin Shi walked over.

Li Zhen didn't shy away from suspicion and handed the letter to them.

After reading it, Yin Shi frowned and said, "It seems that the situation in Tiandu is not good."

"Do you want to go back to Tiandu?" Zhang Jin asked.

Yin Shi shook his head and said, "It's too late to rush back now, and Tiandu won't win just because I rush back."

"On the contrary, if we leave, the South may continue to fall into a predicament."

"Lin Chen is right. We need to prepare early and wait for the situation in Tiandu to develop."

Zhang Jin looked at Qin Shaoshao and said, "Lin Chen went to Tiandu? Can you tell me why?"

"I heard that a female disciple from the Spirit Academy was kidnapped in the Heavenly Palace," Qin Shaoshao replied.

Zhang Jin seemed to have thought of something and said, "Is that woman named Bai Ling?"

Qin Shao Shao nodded.

Zhang Jin's expression immediately changed, but he didn't say anything more.

After the great battle, a victory celebration banquet naturally followed.

However, Zhang Jin did not attend.

Yin Shi approached Zhang Jin from behind the main camp and immediately asked, "What are you doing here? The brothers are all waiting for you."

The first thing Zhang Jin said was:

"I want to go back to Tiandu."

Yin Shi was taken aback, then frowned and said, "You said back then that you had forgotten about the Tiandu incident and didn't want to think about it again."

"There is only one way to resolve this calamity caused by the demon race."

Zhang Jin interrupted him, saying, "That's the teacher's Eight Trigrams Nine Cities Plan."

Yin was taken aback.

If that's the case, then this matter is indeed related to him.

"Do you need me to go back with you?" Yin asked.

“The South needs you more,” Zhang Jin said.

"Alright, you can go back by yourself. Be careful on the road." Yin Shi took out a token from the Yin family and said, "If you encounter any difficulties, you can seek help from the Yin family."
