"Since that’s the case, as you wish. My earlier words will always be valid. What do you think?"
Fei Hong Ancestor suppressed his unpleasant thoughts, nodded slightly, and said to Zhao Sheng.
"Ancestor, where is Ancestor Zheng Jue currently? I’d like to et him." Zhao Sheng didn’t leave but asked a sudden question.
Fei Hong Ancestor was slightly surprised by this: "Zheng Jue is currently in closed-door cultivation at the Three-Life Palace. If you urgently need him, I can imdiately call him back."
"It’s not urgent. Just that I’ve retrieved quite a few Jade Bones. Ancestor Zheng Jue might find them useful."
While speaking, Zhao Sheng stretched out his hand and picked up a scapula jade bone from the treasure pile to show Fei Hong Ancestor.
"This... I can’t believe I missed it. Could these Jade Bones belong to so fallen Great Power?" Fei Hong Ancestor was stunned again, hurriedly grabbing a piece of jade bone to examine it closely.
A mont later, Fei Hong Ancestor burst into laughter: "Haha, truly! These are indeed the legendary Great Power Jade Bones! I will urgently summon Zheng Jue back. Such matters must not be delayed!"
Among the five Nascent Souls of the Chen Family, Ancestor Zheng Jue alone is proficient in many Demon Techniques, a rare Demon Path progenitor in high-class families.
In this regard, these Great Power Jade Bones are most important to Ancestor Zheng Jue, even radically altering his path of cultivation.
Though not explicitly stated, both Fei Hong and Zhao Sheng understood that if these Jade Bones were correctly utilized, the Chen Family could potentially produce a Demon Dao Divinity Transformation True Monarch in the future.
Shortly after, a tunneling light shot out from the tree hole and then flew towards the Suspended City built around the tree.
...
Three days passed in a flash.
On this night, as deep silence fell and the stars and moon hid behind clouds,
in the Inner Mansion of the Hidden Dragon Pavilion, Zhao Sheng sat early in a spacious quiet room, waiting for the guest’s arrival.
About the ti it takes to drink a cup of tea later, a shadow silently descended from the depths of night and flashed into the quiet room.
The visitor, with a celestial deanor, seed transcendental, resembling a god among n, was Ancestor Zheng Jue, known to the world as "Black Evil Old Immortal," one of the five Nascent Souls of the Chen Family.
"Ancestor, please sit!"
Upon seeing the main character arrive, Zhao Sheng smiled slightly and pointed to the cushion opposite him.
"Good good! You young lad are indeed extraordinary! This ti, I admit defeat to you." Ancestor Zheng Jue arrived gracefully, sat cross-legged on the cushion, and looked intently at Zhao Sheng opposite him.
Zhao Sheng smiled gently: "Ancestor, you’re joking! This... should be a great joy. I congratulate you in advance for your hopeful ascension."
"I dare not hope for ascension; having a glimr of hope for breakthrough into the Divinity Transformation Realm in the future is already a blessing from our ancestors." Ancestor Zheng Jue shook his head, yet his words carried another layer of aning.
"And what if we add this?"
Zhao Sheng’s eyes glinted as he shook his sleeve, a crystal light flashed, and suddenly a jade bone skull flew into the air.
Ancestor Zheng Jue’s eyes brightened imdiately, reaching out to grab it and instantly clutched the skull in his hand.
Holding it, he fondly rubbed it, seemingly appreciating two rare treasures.
Ancestor Zheng Jue was overjoyed, almost losing his deanor, murmuring to himself: "A priceless treasure, truly priceless! With these, the deadlock is resolved, and the path is hopeful. Haha, once Bone Refining succeeds, I am destined to achieve Divinity Transformation!"
Upon finishing these words, Ancestor Zheng Jue suddenly looked over, with a highly serious expression, asking: "Xi’er, you are a direct descendant of the Chen Family. Though my hands are stained with blood, I never wronged our own. Tell , what do you want? As long as I can accomplish it, I will spare no effort."
Zhao Sheng shook his head, calmly saying: "No need, Ancestor. As you said, I am also part of the Chen Family, and it’s only right to contribute to the family. If you can break through to Divinity Transformation in the future, protecting the family for a thousand years is a great blessing for both and the family."
At this point, he changed the subject: "However, I do have two minor requests needing your assistance."
"Haha, go ahead, if I say no, then I am not worthy of the Chen surna from now on." Ancestor Zheng Jue was energized, quickly boasting.
"There is no need for such a strong statent. These two matters are quite easy for you." Zhao Sheng, seeing this, promptly said: "The first matter! I heard of your first disciple True Master Green Evil——"
"What? Has this apprentice offended you? Hmph, I’ll imdiately make him a bone corpse upon my return to relieve you." Ancestor Zheng Jue imdiately expressed murderous intent upon hearing this.
"It’s not True Master Green Evil, but his grandson, who’s been pestering Zhi’er lately. Zhi’er, kind by nature and pure-hearted, sotis gets swayed by smooth talk. I, as the father, don’t feel suitable to step in, and I hope True Master Green Evil can manage his promising grandson."
Ancestor Zheng Jue listened, both amused and troubled, thinking: "Is this trivial matter worth discussing so seriously?"
But on second thought, he felt it necessary to clarify his stance on this issue.
"Fine then! I will give you an account of this matter, guaranteeing a resolution that satisfies you."
These very words led to a catastrophe for True Master Green Evil’s clan later on, as the whole lineage, including Green Evil himself, was refined into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and sent to the Hidden Dragon Pavilion.
Zhao Sheng did not expect Ancestor Zheng Jue’s "ruthlessness," extinguishing the eldest disciple’s household due to this trivial matter, though this is a later developnt and will not be discussed now.
After keeping this matter in mind, Ancestor Zheng Jue asked again: "And... the second matter?"
