Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 1055: Chang Kong Misses the Appointment

Chapter 1055: Chapter 1055: Chang Kong Misses the Appointnt

The Phantom Spirit family, Clan Leader Lian Fu, brought his daughter ng Yu to attend the gathering at Taiyi Mountain. ng Yu, in her flowing pink dress and with a slight charming smile, had several butterfly ornants scattered in her waterfall-like long hair. As she walked, the butterfly wings gently swayed, lifelike.

The Zhulu family, with Clan Leader Hong Ji bringing his nephew Qing Xun, arrived. Hong Ji wore a dark green outer robe, while Qing Xun’s attire was also in shades of green, just a lighter hue.

When Qin Sisi saw them from a distance while standing on high ground, she was sowhat puzzled why Qing Pu hadn’t co. Then she thought, maybe it’s because Qing Xun has a closer relationship with Ye You!

This year, the ilan Family’s Clan Leader Chi Xun was over ninety years old, but in Qin Sisi’s eyes, he seed like a middle-aged man of about forty. The younger generation accompanying him was his nephew Wen Xuan.

Chi Xun is Yi Rou’s father. For this gathering, Yi Rou once considered leaving the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle to accompany her father, but Chi Xun was resolutely against it.

Master Yipiao is very stringent about the teachers at Heavenly Magic God’s Castle and had already inford Ye You on the day that no one from the castle would participate in the war. If anyone wished to fight, they had to leave Heavenly Magic God’s Castle forever and could never return.

Because there would inevitably be casualties in war, if soone caused a lot of killings and then went back to teach, students from families that had been affected by the slaughter might be psychologically shadowed, which would not be conducive to their magic practice.

Lian Li was once firmly rejected by Master Yipiao with the reason of "lack of integrity" when she tried to use Illusion Technique to seduce Chen Song and apply to be a teacher at Heavenly Magic God’s Castle.

If Yi Rou wanted to participate in the war for the Sage Ruler for the sake of her family, she would have to leave Heavenly Magic God’s Castle forever. With its extraordinary advantage as the largest school of magic, Yi Rou’s departure would be a great loss to herself.

And Chi Xun deeply loved his daughter; otherwise, he would not have openly confronted the more powerful Phantom Spirit family on her behalf in the past. Now, as the situation of the war was still unclear, it was unnecessary for Yi Rou to leave Heavenly Magic God’s Castle. Therefore, Chi Xun requested Yi Rou to avoid participating in the war unless the ilan Family faced insurmountable difficulties in the future.

The Panhu family originally lived here, but still, Chief Puchen changed into new clothes and ca with his two grandsons Yun Wang and Yun Cheng, walking respectfully from a distance before kneeling and bowing to Ye You.

Ye You did not decline the gesture, after accepting Chief Puchen’s grand salute, he imdiately stepped forward to lift up Puchen and gently said, "Chief Puchen has worked hard."

"This is the duty of a subordinate," replied Puchen, still with the utmost respect and without any traces of haughty arrogance due to favoritism. Yun Wang and Yun Cheng also stood solemnly with chests puffed out behind Puchen.

The expressions on others’ faces changed, and their eyes were complex. Although they all bowed when they saw Ye You, they did not perform the grand kneeling salute, because the grand kneeling salute is exclusive to the Sage Ruler.

The kneeling of the Panhu family was a show of loyalty and was also a deliberate ssage to others that Ye You was never without support—The Panhu family would always back Ye You.

Now, seven out of The Eight Great Families had arrived, with the only one left being the Changkong family that lived in Midair City, located in the northwest part of the Demon Sacred Realm.

"Jiu Ge..." Ye You silently muttered this na in his heart, feeling sowhat heavy, but without showing any signs on the surface.

After waiting for a mont more and still not seeing the Chengkong family, Ye You instructed not to wait any longer. The seven clan leaders followed him into the council hall to discuss the next action plan, while the rest of the people were asked to wait in the reception hall for guests.

In the hall, there were several long tables set up with hot tea and various snacks prepared for the guests to enjoy at will, but their minds were clearly not on these delicacies.

Xiao ng quickly joined Yun Cheng, and the two had not seen each other in nearly two months. In the heat of their passionate love, a day apart felt like an eternity. By this asure, it was almost as if they had not seen each other for two hundred years. Upon their reunion, naturally, there were endless things to say.

With a smile that was not quite a smile, ng Yu glanced at Xiao ng and Yun Cheng, then turned to Jing Jing with a aningful look.

Jing Jing pretended not to notice, turned her head to avoid ng Yu’s gaze, walked up to Qing Xun with biting lips, and timidly said, "Brother Qing Xun, it’s been so long, I hope you’ve been well?"

Qing Xun replied warmly with a smile, "I’m fine, thank you."

Jing Jing’s heart was both sweet and sour. Sweet because after such a long ti, she finally saw him again and his gentle smile, like polished jade; sour because his politeness to her was the sa as always. Politeness, wasn’t it just another form of distance?

After so many years, she still couldn’t get closer to him. If she tried a bit harder, beca a bit stronger, would her chances of getting closer increase?

Wen Xuan smiled and nodded politely to people in the hall; he knew three of them. However, Xiao ng and Yun Cheng now only had eyes for each other, and Wen Xuan did not particularly want to provoke Ya Ling, so he sat down alone behind the long table, quietly sipping his tea.

Yun Wang had heard of Wen Xuan from Yun Cheng and had a good impression of him. Plus, he had learned of the i Lan Family’s loyalty from Ye You, so he took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Wen Xuan.

Lie Feng approached ng Yu nervously, his passion evident in his eyes, trying but failing to hide it: "ng... ng Yu, have you been well lately?"

ng Yu paused for a mont, lifted her head, and gave Lie Feng a warm smile, her voice tender as she replied, "I’m quite well, and you?"

Lie Feng was stunned. The beauty across from him was smiling so beautifully and softly, like a dream suffused with colored light, and he was utterly bewitched.

ng Yu didn’t rush him and just continued to watch him with a smile on her face.

He sought affection and received it; back then, Lie Feng never imagined that this beautiful dream would cause him to fall hopelessly for a lifeti.

Nine juniors had accompanied the Clan Leader. After two of them started chatting, only Ya Ling remained alone. She actually wanted to find soone to talk to; at least it would make it seem like she was sociable.

But among those in the hall, so she hardly knew, and those she was acquainted with didn’t have a great relationship with her, leaving her no choice but to abandon the effort and sit alone behind the long table, eating snacks in discontent.

At this ti, Ye You was in the council hall discussing the declaration of war against Tian Xiaozi with the seven Clan Leaders. He asked each Clan Leader to take turns expressing their opinions, which varied greatly and were quite diverse.

So said that since the decision to go to war had been made, they should fight a quick battle—imdiately muster the troops and attack Wang City, executing Tian Xiaozi to avenge the forr Sage Ruler.

Others said that Tian Xiaozi lived reclusively and the true extent of his strength was unclear. Unsure if he might have so devastating move hidden away, it would be wise to minimize casualties and act with caution and prudence.
