As the crowd were speaking, the four people had arrived in the air above the Imperial Palace.
Du Tingxuan, Zhen Qingchun, Xun Youfang, Qi Xinglang and the rest all moved forward.
"Excuse me, is this place where your Barren Kingdom is located?"
Amongst the four young men and women, a graceful woman slowly asked with her red lips slightly parted.
The woman had a faint smile on her face, elegant and serene, giving off a comfortable feeling like the spring breeze.
Beside her, the other two men and one woman were also beaming with kindness.
"I am Du Tingxuan, a person of Du Family."
Du Tingxuan cupped his hands and said.
Even though he did not know the purpose of these people's visit, he had to be polite when they treated him courteously.
Furthermore, he realized that even with his level of Half-Step Heaven Saint, it was actually very difficult for him to fathom the depths of these people, and it was much more vast and profound than the people from the five great families that had come to visit before.
From this, it could be seen how powerful they were.
He was also curious about such an expert.
So it's Great Roc Emperor's father. I am Beigong Yingruo.
The graceful woman bowed to Du Tingxuan and the rest.
"I am Han Shuang from the Northern Palace, greetings to all of you!"
Beside Beigong Yingruo, another beautiful lady also spoke up, and at the same time, bowed towards Du Tingxuan and the others.
"I am Zhang Qing from the Northern Palace!"
"I am Solesky of the Northern Palace!"
The other two handsome men also introduced themselves with amiable expressions.
"Greetings, everyone!"
Du Tingxuan politely replied all of them, but at the same time, he had an even deeper doubt in his heart.
As soon as the four people from Beigong Family arrived, they immediately mentioned that they were looking for Barren Kingdom and Du Family. Furthermore, they knew who they were, and that they were the fathers of the Great Roc Emperor.
This meant that they were here for the Barren Kingdom and the Du Family, but did not know their goal.
At this moment, Xun Youfang, Qian Xuanzi, Qi Xinglang, Zhou Qinglian, and Hu Sanjian also came forward and greeted the four young men and women respectfully.
"So he's a senior from the Confucianism, Taoism, Yin Yang, rural, and Mo families."
Beigong Yingruo laughed, and then bent his body down towards the five of them.
"Senior, I really don't deserve this!"
The five of them hurriedly waved their hands and sidestepped to avoid the bow.
They all knew that the four of them looked to be young. Perhaps they might be a lot younger than the five of them, but their cultivations were all above them.
Thus, they did not dare to recognize him as their senior.
"May I ask if any of you have any business with my Barren Kingdom?"
Du Tingxuan asked, puzzled.
Someone who was respectful even to the experts of the five great families would definitely not have a simple origin. In his heart, he was even more curious about this Beigong Family.
"Father of the Great Roc Emperor, let's go down and talk!"
Before Beigong Yingruo could say anything, Northern Palace Frost, who was beside him, said.
"The four of you, please!"
Du Tingxuan moved to the side and lured the four towards the imperial palace.
At this time, the people of the five great families spoke, and bid farewell to the people of Barren Kingdom.
Even though they also wanted to know the purpose of this person from Beigong Family, they couldn't ask.
With regards to the clan that had always been a little mysterious, they also felt a little apprehensive.
Some things were better to know than not.
After Du Tingxuan and Zhen Qingchun sent off the people of the five great families, they brought the four youths of Beigong Family with them and entered a great hall in the middle of the imperial palace.
After everyone took their seats, Beigong Yingruo did not beat around the bush. Instead, he directly stated his purpose for coming to Barren Kingdom: "The four of us have been asked by someone to come and lend a hand to Great Roc Emperor!"
"Helping Young Master?"
When Du Tingxuan and Zhen Qingchun heard this, they were stunned for a moment.
Du Shaofu had fallen in battle with the Devil God, so they had no way of knowing what kind of state he was currently in, nor did they know if he would truly be able to recover in the end.
Although everyone had strong expectations in their hearts, they knew that everything still depended on the will of heaven.
And these four people with Beigong Family, actually said that they came for Du Shaofu to help him.
It was clear that they also found out about Du Shaofu's current situation.
But strangely, this information had been tightly sealed within the Barren Kingdom. Aside from a few important individuals, not many disciples knew about it, and everyone thought that he had truly fallen.
He really couldn't understand how these people knew.
Thinking about it here, Du Tingxuan, Doctor Wuming, Zhen Qingchun, and the others, felt deep veneration for these four young men and women.
At the very least, the person who had entrusted them with this task was definitely the Lord of Terror.
"Excuse me, may I ask who you are?"
Zhen Qingchun asked with a somewhat strange expression.
However, Beigong Yingruo and the other three young masters all smiled mysteriously and did not reply.
Seeing their expressions, in an instant, countless thoughts flashed through the minds of Du Tingxuan, Zhen Qingchun and the others.
"Don't tell me …"
The Barren Kingdom and group of people looked at each other, as though they had all thought of a certain possibility at the same time, and astonishment appeared on their faces.
"There's no time to lose, everyone please bring us to see the situation in Great Roc Emperor!"
"Let's go."
Hearing this, Du Tingxuan could not help but frown, and asked cautiously: "Forgive me for my offense, but, how can I trust you?"
These words carried a hint of suspicion, and even Zhen Qingchun, Ouyang Shuang and the rest beside them tensed up when they heard it, and looked cautiously at the four young men and women.
What Du Tingxuan said was true, even though the four of them were much stronger than them in terms of cultivation.
Even in this world which was under control, it was hard to see just how deep they were in, and they could at least display the strength of their Heaven Saint Stage.
Within the 33 Heavens, he should be a heroic figure. From the respectful attitude that the people from the Confucian and Yin Yang Families had towards him, it could be seen.
It was reasonable to say that this kind of expert would easily deceive them, and it seemed that there had never been any interaction between Barren Kingdom and these people.
However, this was related to Du Shaofu's safety. If they were to rashly lead them into the Ancestral Shrine of Du Family, who could guarantee that these people would not do anything wicked?
If it was really like that, once they affected Du Shaofu's recovery, everyone in Barren Kingdom would only be able to regret it at that time.
Du Tingxuan was very careful, he did not easily trust these few unfamiliar people, it was very necessary.
"Heh heh."
Amongst the four people from Beigong Family, the young man called Bei Gong Chang Qing revealed a crafty smile, as if he had already expected this situation.
Just as his laughter faded, the aura around his body suddenly changed. His body, which was originally incomparably calm without being able to sense any aura, suddenly erupted with a vast and vigorous aura.
"Buzz!"
A burst of azure-green light burst out from his body and filled the hall. However, it was well controlled and didn't leak out from the hall.
Following the end of this situation, Du Tingxuan, Zhen Qingchun, Doctor Wuming, and Ouyang Shuang all felt their primordial spirits tremble, and an indescribable fear in their hearts. That ferocious and profound Cyan Light, gave off an incomparably immense pressure, causing them to be unable to help their hearts from palpitating.
But at the same time, they also felt a strong aura of life flowing through them.
Around him, the azure-green light rapidly flowed and magically, eventually condensing into something that appeared behind his back.
"This is …"
Du Tingxuan and the rest opened their mouths, looking back at the object formed by the light, they felt a sense of familiarity.
"Isn't this the image of the patriarch of the Fang Ji Family?"
Ouyang Shuang's beautiful eyes blinked a few times as she asked in astonishment.
That's right, the thing that the North Palace Chief Qing had condensed was exactly the same as the patriarch of the Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree s. It was exactly the same, as if it were real.
No one could be more familiar with that imposing manner of Qin Wentian, as well as his boundless vitality.
Just standing in the middle of the great hall, those who had Barren Kingdom couldn't help but feel a sense of elation. It was as if the vitality in their bodies had increased by a few points, and every inch of their muscles seemed to have gained life, as if they were about to be revived with incomparable happiness.
If not for the image of the Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree that the North Palace Chief had created, in terms of physique, they would have thought that this was truly the place where the Fang Ji Family's ancestor came from.
"Beigong Family, could it be related to Fang Ji Family?"
Zhen Qingchun couldn't help but ask as he looked at the four youths with Beigong Family s.
Perhaps, they might not be able to trust these strangers, but if they really had a deep relationship with Fang Ji Family, then they were indeed trustworthy.
"You guys have guessed correctly. The ancestor of the Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree s came from my Beigong Family. The method our clan cultivates can be said to have originated from him. So when we see him, we have to call him Senior Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree! "If you really think about it, there's no reason why you can't call him Patriarch."
Beigong Yingruo said with a smile, hinting to the North Palace Chief to retract the scene behind him.
After that, she leisurely walked a few steps forward, arriving beside Du Tingxuan and the others, and continued: "That Fang Ji Family, even though it is not related to our own Beigong Family, its abilities are all related to the Senior Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree, so it can be considered to be of the same race as us."
"Fang Ji Family and Beigong Family can be considered to be of the same race. Senior Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree actually has such a background?"
Du Tingxuan and the rest were shocked once again. Barren Kingdom and them had a deep relationship, everyone knew about the relationship between Du Shaofu and Dongli Qingqing.
As for the ancestor of the Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree, he was someone who had accompanied the master of the three thousand boundless worlds and the Dragon God to this world. In the end, he had even suppressed the primordial spirit of the Devil God.
However, it was also because of this that, over the course of countless years, due to the relationship between him suppressing Devil God, his strength had been greatly reduced.
Even when the Devil Cult Tribulation was activated, he had only recovered to the realm of Sage Stage Perfection, unlike Fu Yibai and the others, who had reached Heaven Saint Stage.
However, no one in the Barren Kingdom would underestimate the ancestor of the Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree. Sooner or later, he would return to the peak, but he did not know what kind of realm he would reach then.
"I heard that there are many good seedlings growing within the Fang Ji Family of this world. Our trip here to help the Great Roc Emperor is of course a main matter, but when the time comes, we will also bring a few strong practitioners with us to Hao Ji Sect to finish the cultivation of the heavens, or even return to the main clan to receive cultivation. As for the Senior Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree, we have received heavy injuries in the past few years, so naturally we have to invite him back to our clan so that he can recover faster. "
He spoke out in a very serious manner.
It was not difficult for Ouyang Shuang, Zhen Qingchun and the rest to realise that every time these young people mentioned the word "Senior Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree," they would all become extremely serious with a sense of respect on their faces.
Du Tingxuan kept nodding his head, becoming even more curious about the Beigong Family. It seemed that it was an extremely powerful force, and would probably not be weaker than the hundreds of families, or even be much stronger.
But at the moment, he still could not make a decision. He did not dare to rashly let them make a move to "help" Du Shaofu.
He had some doubts in his heart. Even though he wasn't absolutely sure, he still believed eighty to ninety percent of what these four people were saying.
However, this matter was too serious. He did not dare to take the risk without absolute confidence in himself.
Because this concerned Du Shaofu's life, so he could not gamble.
Du Tingxuan frowned, he did not speak for a long while, and appeared to be hesitating.
His doubts prevented him from making a decision as soon as possible, but at the same time he did not want to neglect the youngsters.
No matter what was said, it was highly likely that the other party had come with sincerity. If he had been too rude, it wouldn't be a good thing.
Seeing such a situation, Beigong Yingruo, Northern Palace's Congealed Frost, Northern Palace's Tian Huan, and Northern Palace's Zhang Qing couldn't help but start laughing bitterly after looking at each other.
Regarding what Du Tingxuan was thinking, of course they could guess it.
What they did not expect was that a person with Barren Kingdom was actually this cautious.
They had already revealed the arrival of the Senior Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree, but were still unable to gain the other party's full trust.
But after thinking about it again, he felt relieved. After all, this was related to Du Shaofu's life, so he could not help but be cautious.
"Father, should we send someone to invite the Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree's Patriarch over to the Barren Kingdom?"
Ouyang Shuang walked up and asked Du Tingxuan.
Although these words were a little disrespectful to the four people of Beigong Family, it was still the most feasible method.
"This isn't good!" Before we left, the clan had already been in contact with the Fang Ji Family. But with the identity of the Senior Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree, as the descendant of the Beigong Family, it should be us who should go and invite him. "
After hesitating for a moment, she said this.
"How about this, let's head to the Fang Ji Family first. Great Roc Emperor won't be short a day or two, we'll talk about it when we get back. "
Only by doing so would they be able to dispel the doubts of the people from Barren Kingdom.
However, just as he finished speaking, a loud laugh could be heard from outside the hall.
"Ha ha-ha ha, no need for that. I'll do it myself!"
Before his voice had completely faded away, a vast wave of energy also descended and quietly filled the entire hall.
Amidst the flashing cyan light, a large area of Talisman Secret Mark bloomed, shining in all directions, as if a world was being opened.
Endless rays of light were like a green sun shining in the sky, as if a deity had descended. A figure clad in long robes quietly appeared. He looked middle-aged, and his long green hair draped over his shoulders.
Behind him followed a old woman. He was old but his gaze was deep.
Other than this, there were also a few other young cultivators that appeared within the great hall.
"Senior Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree!"
When they appeared, Du Tingxuan, Zhen Qingchun and the rest were all extremely happy.
The middle-aged man in long robes was not the ancestor of the Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree s with Fang Ji Family. The old woman behind him was Dongli Qingqing's master.
And amongst the group of youths, Dongli Qingqing, Dongli ruoyun were present as well as a few other young experts.
As for Dongli ruoshu who used his Fang Ji Family, he died in battle a few months ago during the great calamity.
"Senior Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree!"
Seeing that the Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree had arrived, Beigong Yingruo, Northern Palace's Congealed Frost, Northern Palace's Tian Huan, and Northern Palace's Zhang Qing all went forward at the same time, bowing down respectfully.
"No need to be so polite!"
Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree's ancestor smiled, his body released a ray of light, and helped the four of them up.
Actually, with his current strength, he was far from being able to compare to these four youths. However, when he faced them and bowed, he acted as if nothing had happened.
"That's right. So many years have passed, and the younger generation of Beigong Family are still talented!"
Looking at the four youngsters on the Beigong Family, Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree Ancestor nodded his head and said in satisfaction.
"Senior, you flatter me. I wonder how many more years we will have to practice before we can reach senior's level!"
Beigong Yingruo blushed a little and said sincerely.
"Haha, the current me is far inferior to all of you!"
Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree's ancestor laughed, as though he was not the least bit embarrassed for bringing up this matter in front of a junior.
His strength was still far from being restored, and at the moment, he really couldn't compare to these few youngsters.
"Ancestor, the clan once said that they wanted us to invite you back before going to the Spiritual Martial Force. With the environment there, it will be of the greatest help to your recovery!"
Beigong Yingruo said respectfully.
"Let's talk about this later, let's do the most important thing first!"
Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree waved his hand and said.
At the side, everyone from the Barren Kingdom felt that something was off. They couldn't help but be puzzled in their hearts, just where exactly was the Spiritual Martial Force that Beigong Yingruo was talking about?
Previously, when Fu Yibai had told them about the 33 Heavens, everyone had become suspicious.
The backers of the three thousand Greater Thousand Worlds should have been three thousand Greater Thousand Worlds, right? Why would they suddenly appear here in the 33 Heavens?
And now, they had heard the four words "Spiritual Martial Force". What kind of place was that, why would it be the most helpful to the recovery of the Senior Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree?
For a moment, the crowd was filled with bewilderment, they didn't know what was going on.
"There are some things that will slowly come to light after you've gone to the 33 Heavens. Now is not the time to tell you about them."
The Heavenly Wood Dvine Tree's Ancestor looked at Du Tingxuan and the others, and smiled: "Right now, we should go and take a look at that brat. I have also received news from the Upper World, so these young people are worthy of your trust. "
