Chapter 1610: Come
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The sun rose, and the dark sky gradually brightened.
The last light of Godly Phoenix Hall quietly went out.
A breeze blew, and the white mountain mist dissipated bit by bit, revealing the figures of the people sitting quietly in the square.
Chu Liuyue slowly exhaled and opened her eyes.
The natural energy here was very abundant and pure. Cultivating here was almost twice as good as outside. Therefore, while she waited for Tuan Zi outside the door, she didn’t waste any time and diverted a portion of her attention to cultivate.
!!
After breaking through to a true god, her efficiency in absorbing force had increased greatly, and her cultivation speed had naturally increased.
There were a total of three stages, namely the early stage, the middle stage, and the peak stage. And the difference between these three stages wasn’t small.
Now that she was still at the early stage… If she wanted to continue breaking through, she could only cultivate diligently.
After being tempered by pure force, her spirit had recovered a lot, and her black jade-like eyes were bright.
She glanced toward the doors of Godly Phoenix Hall.
Tuan Zi had been in there for three days, but there was still no sign of her coming out. Yi Zhao was accompanying her inside, so naturally, he did not come out.
Chu Liuyue hesitated for a moment before looking to the side.
Elder Yi Yu had left yesterday. It seemed that the people below had discovered that the damage to Phoenix Valley was a little serious and invited him back to take a look.
It made sense. She could barely remember how many bolts of lightning she had triggered in the previous month.
Although these lightning bolts had been devoured by Tuan Zi, energy surged and affected Phoenix Valley during the process.
It was rare for Chu Liuyue to feel guilty, and she originally wanted to follow him. However, Elder Yi Yu waved his hand and told her to continue waiting for Tuan Zi here. As for the rest, she should leave it to them.
This was originally their base, so Chu Liuyue naturally didn’t know as much as them about how to repair it.
Facing Chu Liuyue’s apology, Elder Yi Yu’s attitude became even more carefree. “You’ve already opened the fourth meridian for Tuan Zi. What’s this small matter?”
Tuan Zi’s significance to their entire red-gold heavenly phoenix clan was immeasurable. Even if Phoenix Valley was really destroyed, they would have nothing to say.
Phoenix Valley could be rebuilt, but there might not be a second Tuan Zi.
Since the other party said so, Chu Liuyue did not insist.
After the first day, Elder Yi Gong never appeared again. Thus, at this moment, there were only three elders waiting outside the hall.
Chu Liuyue looked at Elder Yi Shang, who was closest to her. “Elder Yi Shang, may I ask if this ancestral worship… Will it always take so long?”
Elder Yi Shang looked back and smiled gently. “Under normal circumstances, it’ll only take a day for the young master to worship their ancestors. But Tuan Zi is special, so it’s normal for it to take longer.”
Chu Liuyue pressed her lips against each other.
She naturally knew this very well, but three days had passed, and there was no movement at all. It really made one’s heart pound.
“Then… do you know how long it will take?”
Elder Yi Shang shook his head. “That… is still up to her.”
In the past, although the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan had also had the purest bloodline, nobody had summoned the Ancestral Soul.
This was the first time Tuan Zi had done this. They didn’t have much experience, so it was not appropriate for them to say anything.
She nodded in understanding and could only continue waiting patiently. Fortunately, there is a connection between Tuan Zi and me. It feels like there is no question—
Suddenly, a subtle fluctuation came from Chu Liuyue’s dantian.
Her expression froze.
A moment later, the fluctuation came again, and this time, it was clearly louder than the first time.
It came from that water droplet! Somehow, something seemed to be calling.
Chu Liuyue looked up in the direction of the summoning and instantly held her breath. This power seems to come from Godly Phoenix Hall!
She looked around.
Everyone looked the same.
This power seems to have only summoned me? This… Chu Liuyue’s eyebrows twitched.
She could sense that the power of this summoning was extremely vast and powerful, carrying an astonishing pressure that couldn’t be disobeyed!
Even Yi Zhao from before could not be compared to it! However, this power was very gentle to her, so although it landed on her, it didn’t make her feel uncomfortable.
A ridiculous and bold guess instantly flashed across her mind. Who else can have such summoning power other than the ancestor in Godly Phoenix Hall, who has been worshiped by the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan for generations? But I’m the only human here, and the only connection I have with the red-gold heavenly phoenixes is Tuan Zi. How could—
Suddenly, Chu Liuyue calmed down. Could it be… because of Tuan Zi?
Gradually, the fluctuation became stronger and stronger, so much so that she could not ignore it.
Finally, before Chu Liuyue could take the initiative to speak, the doors of Godly Phoenix Hall suddenly opened.
Creak—
The long, weathered voice was especially clear in the quiet square.
Everyone looked up in the direction of the doors.
Yi Shang and the others also had solemn expressions.
From the looks of it, the clan leader and Tuan Zi were about to come out?
As expected, Yi Zhao’s figure quickly appeared behind the doors.
He stepped out the doors, and everyone bowed respectfully. “Greetings, Clan Leader!”
Many people heaved a sigh of relief. It seems that the ancestral worship inside is finally over.
However, some more meticulous people quickly realized that Tuan Zi did not follow the clan leader out. Logically speaking, the two of them should’ve come out together…
Yi Zhao’s gaze landed on Chu Liuyue.
As if sensing something, Chu Liuyue looked up.
The two of them stared at each other.
Chu Liuyue could clearly see the complicated emotions in Yi Zhao’s eyes.
Then, Yi Zhao said, “Shangguan Yue, go in.”
Those few simple words stunned everyone on the spot.
Some even rubbed their ears, thinking they were hearing things.
Some of them looked at each other and confirmed what the clan leader said from their shocked gazes.
Yi Shang and the others were also stunned.
Although Shangguan Yue had entered Godly Phoenix Hall twice before, it was both under special circumstances.
However, it was different now! Tuan Zi was worshiping her ancestors inside. Why did they suddenly let Shangguan Yue go over?!
But seeing Yi Zhao’s serious expression, they did not dare to ask further and only subconsciously looked at her.
Sure enough.
After calming herself down, Chu Liuyue nodded slightly and walked straight to the main hall.
Everyone’s gazes subconsciously followed her.
When she brushed past Yi Zhao, she could clearly sense that he was sizing her up.
His gaze was different from before. Although he looked calm on the surface, it was obvious that the waves in his heart had yet to subside.
She paused for a moment before continuing to enter Godly Phoenix Hall without looking sideways.
