Chapter 509: The Arrival of Gu He!
At this moment, the Qi Huang Mountain Range, due to the arrival of the white-robed elder standing in front of Zi Yan, was filled with a sense of oppression that resonated through the bloodlines of the gathered magical beasts.
Even the powerful eight-stage transformation-class magical beasts could not escape this overwhelming pressure.
Under its weight, they dared not make a sound, trembling and standing still, while the weaker ones lay prostrate on the ground.
"Zi Yan, you possess the royal bloodline. I ask you to return to our clan with me, the elder.
It is hoped that in the future, you will inherit the throne of the Dragon Emperor, reunite the fragmented Dragon Island, revitalize our clan, and restore us to our former glory!"
The white-robed elder suddenly spoke.
Hearing the elder's words, Zi Yan responded with an impatient, childish voice,
"Old man, you are so verbose. I've already told you, I can't go back with you now.
I promised my master that I would return to the academy when my training period is almost over!"
"Zi Yan, your strength has been delayed for too long because you mistakenly consumed the Transformation Grass.
Once you return to the clan, we will do everything possible to quickly enhance your power.
As for the training mission your master mentioned, you can temporarily set it aside.
I believe that when your master sees your rapid improvement in strength, not only will he not blame you, but he will be very pleased!"
The white-robed elder confidently persuaded Zi Yan.
Despite the elder's persuasion, Zi Yan remained unmoved, shrugged her shoulders, and directly refused,
"I don't care. I must return to my master within the specified time!"
Even though Zi Yan had this attitude, the white-robed elder did not appear angry at all.
Instead, he emphasized his words and continued,
"Zi Yan, do you know what our Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan has experienced over the long years?
Because the royal bloodline disappeared, your three uncles, who possess a bit of the royal bloodline, declared themselves kings and split the Dragon Island into four parts.
The prolonged internal strife has caused heavy casualties and a continuous decline in our clan's strength.
Do you understand how important your royal bloodline is to our clan...?"
Zi Yan was not seeing her clan members for the first time.
After arriving in the Central Continent, she had already refused once when the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan members asked her to return to the clan.
This white-robed elder was the second to seek her out.
As for her own background, Zi Yan was, of course, already very clear.
She felt somewhat angry in her heart about the three Dragon Kings splitting the race.
However, at present, she still had to keep her appointment, go to see Han Yue participate in the Four Directions Pavilion competition in a few months, and then return to the Northwest Continent with Han Yue, to be by Gu He's side.
This made her very conflicted.
"Perhaps I should discuss these matters with my master!"
Suddenly, Zi Yan stopped pondering and made a decision in her heart.
She then directly said to the white-robed elder,
"Old man, wait a moment. I need to consult my master. Come back to see me in one day!"
"One day is not a problem!"
Hearing Zi Yan's request, the white-robed elder readily agreed.
After all, Zi Yan carried the aura of the royal bloodline.
Even if she was given a day, she could not escape the white-robed elder's tracking.
"Zi Yan, didn't you say your master is in that remote place in the Northwest Continent?
How can you possibly ask him in just one day?"
The white-robed elder quickly realized the issue and raised his doubts.
"That's none of your concern. I have my ways!"
Zi Yan curled her lips and did not explain further to the white-robed elder.
"Very well, if that's the case, I will come to see you again in one day!"
Hearing Zi Yan's response, the white-robed elder nodded somewhat helplessly, and then his figure quickly disappeared with a spatial distortion.
After the white-robed elder left, Zi Yan did not immediately go to find Gu He.
Instead, she quickly ran towards the outskirts of the Qi Huang Mountain Range.
After running for four or five hours, she looked around and then swiftly entered a small valley.
However, Zi Yan had no idea that far above her in the high sky, a pair of eyes gleaming with a keen light were watching her every move.
"Hehe, this girl is quite cautious in her actions!" The owner of those eyes in the sky was none other than the white-robed elder who had just spoken with Zi Yan. At that moment, seeing Zi Yan's actions, he couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle.
In the next moment, under the gaze of the white-robed elder, Zi Yan, who had slipped into the valley, suddenly grasped a purple jade talisman and crushed it directly.
"Could this be a spatial jade tube?"
Seeing Zi Yan's action of crushing the void jade talisman, the white-robed elder was somewhat surprised in his heart.
Generally speaking, only people from major forces would allow their younger generation to carry spatial jade tubes made by the strong members of their clan. Those who could refine spatial jade tubes usually had quite powerful cultivation. Even if their cultivation did not reach the level of a semi-saint, they were among the best in the Dou Zun realm.
"Didn't Zi Yan say her master was in the Northwest Continent? When did the Northwest Continent produce such a person?" The white-robed elder felt puzzled in his heart and also became curious about Zi Yan's master.
In the small valley, after Zi Yan crushed the void jade talisman, the space beside her suddenly began to twist violently, and an overwhelming aura was revealed from it.
"I knew it, the words of my master could never be false!"
Sensing this somewhat familiar aura, Zi Yan, who was using the void jade talisman for the first time, immediately showed a bright smile on her face.
After this overwhelming aura was emitted, with the small valley as the center, it instantly swept through the surrounding dozens of miles. The magical beasts within this range all felt terrified because of this aura, and roars of beasts kept echoing in the forest.
"High-level semi-saint!"
The white-robed elder, hiding in the dark, also changed his expression greatly when he sensed this aura. He never expected that Zi Yan's master would be a high-level semi-saint. At this moment, the white-robed elder's thoughts became somewhat complicated, because his own cultivation was also only at the level of a high-level semi-saint.
In the next moment, under the gaze of the white-robed elder, a white figure quickly stepped out from the twisted space and came to Zi Yan's side.
"Master, you're here. Zi Yan misses you so much!"
Seeing Gu He step out from the twisted space, Zi Yan happily walked up and directly hugged one of Gu He's legs.
On Gu He's side, after projecting himself here and seeing that Zi Yan was fine, he let out a sigh of relief. He reached out his hand and patted Zi Yan's head.
However, just as Gu He was about to ask Zi Yan why she had summoned him, he suddenly frowned, his gaze sharp as he looked towards a certain part of the sky outside the valley.
