I picked up the scattered attributes

Brutal innate gods and demons, bizarre alien Dao Ancestors... are the common enemy of all acquired beings!

Therefore, they were all very careful and dared not reveal their identities, for fear of being attacked by the other group.

Their formidable enemies lurking within the Imperial Council require a suitable reason, a legitimate pretext, to deal with them before they can act with any justification.

For Feng Xia and his team, this gave them room to maneuver.

"The situation is worse than I imagined, but it's still much better than the worst-case scenario I anticipated."

After that, Feng Xia went to see Zu Long again.

Since arriving in Ziwei, this ancestor of all dragons has been very silent. Even when members of the Li family come to visit, he refuses to see them.

However, since Feng Xia came to visit, Zu Long naturally wouldn't refuse to see him.

"Fellow Daoist Zulong, do you still remember what plans the Divine Kingdom prepared in the final stages of the Heavenly Pattern Divine Kingdom?"

"Oh, could it be that you've discovered something?" Zu Long's eyes narrowed.

"I guess you could say we've made some discoveries. After all, there are many things you can deduce from just hearing a few pieces of information," Feng Xia told Jian Wushuang, sharing part of their conversation.

Of course, he did not mention the Xuan Yuan World.

He only focused on the current situation of the Imperial Council.

"I see. Although the Divine Kingdom suffered a defeat back then, it was not completely defeated. It must have left behind some contingency plans, which even its enemies had to be wary of. That's why it was able to choose peaceful coexistence in the Imperial Council."

A thoughtful expression appeared on Zu Long's majestic face: "Otherwise, one or two ordinary Emperor-level beings would have no chance against the enemy of that time."

Feng Xia nodded: "That's right."

The premise of peaceful coexistence is that both sides are wary of each other, and neither side is confident in defeating the other!

That would mean that although the Heavenly Pattern Divine Kingdom was defeated back then, it still possessed a trump card that its enemies feared. Logically speaking, it was very likely a means of mutual destruction!

If the Heavenly Pattern Divine Kingdom is used, it will inevitably lead to utter annihilation. Therefore, it should be avoided if possible.

The strange Dao Ancestors from other realms may not be completely destroyed, but if they want to suppress the trump card of the Heavenly Pattern Divine Kingdom, they will have to pay a heavy price, and there may even be permanent casualties.

Through repeated back and forth, the current balance was finally achieved.

"Then here's the problem."

Zu Long snapped his fingers and said in a low voice, "How can we possibly know which of those people in the Imperial Council are on the side of the Divine Kingdom and which are members of the Strange faction?"

"We don't know, and they won't easily let people know."

Feng Xia shook his head and looked at the enormous star that was getting closer and closer in front of him: "So I have a plan. This time, our trip to Ziwei Main Star is undoubtedly a good opportunity to fish!"

"Fishing...what do you want to do?"

"The first step in fishing is naturally to find a suitable pond."

……

Several days later, the Li family's Fangtian warship broke through the void and landed on the Ziwei main star.

Suddenly, another wave of turmoil arose.

Originally, the Ziwei Star Domain had been silent for many years, like water in an ancient well, calm and without a ripple.

The arrival of Jian Wushuang was like a pebble thrown into water, creating ripples that spread outwards.

But that was just a ripple.

The past between Jian Wushuang and the Li family is enough to be a topic of conversation over tea and dinner. However, Ziwei has existed for a long time, and all kinds of amazing talents have been countless.

The arrival of Feng Xia and the other two was truly a bombshell!

The ancestor of all dragons in the ancient era, the invincible demon dragon emperor who rose to power in later generations, and Feng Xia, whose identity is shrouded in mystery, yet who can sit on equal footing with the former two and chat with them with ease...

The arrival of the three of them completely stirred up a storm in Ziwei.

As Feng Xia stepped off the celestial warship, he vaguely sensed that at least a hundred gazes were fixed on them from all directions in the void.

Some were driven by curiosity and inquiry, others by solemnity and scrutiny, some by barely perceptible malice, and still others by blatant provocation... and so on, each with its own interpretation.

These people are just very well hidden, and under normal circumstances, they would be almost impossible to be discovered.

"It seems like quite a few people are watching us."

Feng Xia was quite composed, with a faint smile on his face: "Patriarch Li, I will be troubling you a lot during your time in Ziwei."

"Not at all, not at all, everything is negotiable." Li Guangji laughed heartily, ignoring the gazes hidden in the shadows.

His exceptionally friendly demeanor stemmed from the fact that he had confirmed the identities of Feng Xia and the others, especially Zu Long and the Demon Dragon Emperor, as genuine ancient powerhouses!

On the other hand, Feng Xia, who came as a guest, presented the Li family with a great gift.

A generous gift that even Li Guangji couldn't refuse.

After a while, the atmosphere between the two sides naturally became exceptionally harmonious and friendly.

After disembarking from the Fangtian warship, the group headed straight for the Li family's ancestral home.

Once they were far away, the shadowy gazes gradually disappeared from sight.

"It was indeed the Li family patriarch who personally greeted them, along with Jian Wushuang, the Ancestral Dragon, and the Demon Dragon Emperor..."

"Being able to chat and laugh with the Li family patriarch with composure and ease, Feng Xia is quite extraordinary. More importantly, he is the only one of the three who has attained the Acquired Human Realm!"

"What, could it be that your family has also taken a liking to him?"

"Even if you really do take a liking to someone, so what? Someone who can stand on equal footing with the Ancestral Dragon and the Demon Dragon Emperor, whether he is a reincarnation of an ancient powerhouse or a rising junior, is someone you can befriend and never lose money on!"

"Hehe, but I remember that among the young people of your generation, those who could get married have all gotten married, right? The only one who hasn't gotten married yet seems to be your own son..."

"This is no problem. There are countless supernatural powers and methods in the world, and their wonders are endless. If needed, turning my own child into my own daughter... is not impossible!"

Aside from the hushed discussions among some, there were still a few gazes cast upon Feng Xia's retreating figure with an ambiguous and indescribable meaning.

"This person carries a familiar aura..."

……

Chapter 1141

Feng Xia was fully aware of the attention coming from behind, but she didn't take it seriously.

Even with only the cultivation level of True God Realm, controlling one's emotional expression is not a particularly difficult thing.

Even those people hiding in the shadows were unaware that they had been exposed.

The emotions they express are not necessarily the same as their attitudes!

If even this point cannot be recognized, one will easily perish in the fierce battles to come.

Just like in the Imperial Council, now everyone there is a being born after birth.

But will they necessarily help those born after them, and help their own compatriots?

"After I find a good fishpond and set up the fishing line, some things will become clear."

Feng Xia murmured to himself.

Some of those figures who were secretly observing disappeared without anyone noticing, while others continued to follow closely, only hiding themselves more deeply and making it harder for anyone to detect their presence.

"A familiar scent..."

Several pairs of eyes were fixed on Feng Xia's back.

After an unknown amount of time, seeing Feng Xia enter the Li family's ancestral land, they finally left dejectedly.

If they continue to spy on the Li family's ancestral land after entering it, it would be a provocation against the Li family.

"Gentlemen, if you need anything, just call me."

Li Guangji led everyone on a tour of the Li family's ancestral land before settling Feng Xia and the other two down.

For the next few days, everything was calm and peaceful.

From time to time, other forces would visit, presenting gifts to Feng Xia and the other two and requesting an audience.

Feng Xia did not refuse, but instead devoted most of his time to receiving these people.

Day after day, in an endless stream.

Although, on many occasions, Feng Xia's words could revive the dead.

However, if he intends to build good relationships with people, he can make almost everyone feel like they are bathed in a spring breeze. Even those visitors who come with malicious intent have to admit this afterwards!

"Qingmu, it's been almost a year since those three came to our home, hasn't it?"

On that very day, Li Guangji summoned Li Qingmu.

Upon hearing this, Li Qingmu hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's right. In 15 days, it will be exactly one year."

Feng Xia and the others have been living at the Li family's house for almost a year now.

A year passed, and all was calm.

Even the Li family members themselves found it extremely unbelievable.

It should be noted that, setting aside Feng Xia, whose origins are largely unknown, the very identities of both the Ancestral Dragon and the Demon Dragon Emperor are enough to attract countless covetous eyes!

Unfortunately, during this year, there may have been some minor frictions, but not a single major incident occurred!

Feng Xia receives guests from all sides every day. She is skilled in social interaction and has a wide network of connections. She can be described as quite high-profile.
