Wu Shattered Star River

“This!”

Yao Xi's mouth dropped open in surprise.

The Northern Region Great Emperor had an empress and three imperial concubines, but none of them had any offspring.

Many powerful figures thought the Northern Region Great Emperor was impotent, but they never expected him to have a daughter?

And conceived with the Second Lord of the Eastern Region.

This news was too explosive.

If it spread, the entire Land of Bitter Winter would be shaken, right?

If Jiang Xiaoyu was really the daughter of the Northern Region Great Emperor, then she would be the little princess of the Northern Region, showered with love.

She would also be the object that all Yao clansmen would give their lives to protect, because the Northern Region Great Emperor only had this one descendant, his only descendant.

Yao Xi was still a little skeptical.

After all, the Northern Region Great Emperor had one empress and three concubines.

So many years had passed, yet he had no descendants.

Even if Jiang Xiaoyu was Zhen Ji's daughter, who could guarantee she was the Northern Region Great Emperor's?

She blinked and asked, "Ning Zu, can you be sure that Jiang Xiaoyu is His Majesty's daughter?"

“Cannot be sure!”

Yao Ning shook his head and said, "So I need to meet Jiang Han first, then go to the lower realm to see Jiang Xiaoyu."

“As long as I can see Jiang Xiaoyu, I can basically be sure.

If Jiang Xiaoyu is His Majesty's bloodline, then there must be my Yao clan's bloodline in her body, which I can sense!

By the way… did you ask Liu Fangfei?

Where is Jiang Han?

Is he in Tianyu City?”

“Don’t know!”

Yao Xi shook her head and said, "Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu were both in Tianyu City before, but they have disappeared recently for some reason.

Maybe they are in seclusion?

Or maybe they went out for something.

Liu Fangfei and Lu Yu both don't know where Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu went."

“Hmm?”

Yao Ning frowned.

He needed to meet Jiang Han to obtain more information, so he could decide whether to go to the Great Chiliocosm.

After all, the Great Chiliocosm here is not the same as the Northern Region's, and going to the lower realm is a bit troublesome.

"Swish, swish, swish…"

Just then, a series of footsteps sounded outside, and then the formation in the courtyard lit up.

Yao Ning's soul sense swept out, and he shot out a stream of light, closing the formation.

An Emperor of Heaven walked in from outside and saluted Yao Ning and Yao Xi.

Yao Ning activated the formation, and the Emperor of Heaven then said, "Reporting, Ning Zu, I just received news that something happened in the Black Abyss Mountains.

Three Dao Ancestor Realm cultivators are besieging Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu.

Ning Zu, you asked us to pay attention to Jiang Han's situation, and we didn't dare to neglect it, so we came to report as soon as possible!"

“What?”

A cold light appeared in Yao Ning's eyes, while Yao Xi's face showed surprise.

She asked, "Ye Wanqiu is the Deputy City Lord of Tianyu City, and Jiang Han is also the Great Commander of the Heavenly Saber Army.

The powerhouses of the Eastern Region actually dare to attack them?

Aren't they afraid of City Lord Ding turning hostile?”

Yao Xi was very clear about the situation in the Eastern Region.

Although the Great Lord faction now had absolute dominance in the Eastern Region, City Lord Ding was a faction of his own.

City Lord Ding's combat power and prestige were very high in the Eastern Region.

If City Lord Ding turned hostile, the Eastern Region would have internal strife, and the Great Lord would definitely not dare to easily turn hostile against City Lord Ding.

Yao Xi looked at Yao Ning and asked, "Ning Zu, what should we do?

Should we send a message back to Zhen Ji and His Majesty, and let them find a way to mediate?”

“Distant water cannot quench a nearby fire!”

Yao Ning shook his head, then stood up and said, "I will go take a trip to protect Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu!"

“This…”

Yao Xi was stunned, then said nervously, "Ning Zu, this is the Eastern Region.

If you take action, what will the Great Lords of Baiyujing think?

We came here this time for an alliance, will it have any impact on the alliance?

Is one Jiang Han… worth it?”

“It’s worth it!”

Yao Ning said, "Protecting Jiang Han is equivalent to selling Zhen Ji's favor, and His Majesty will definitely agree."

“Most importantly—this time, the Eastern Region is more anxious about the alliance than we are.

So even if they know I took action, the Lords of the Eastern Region won't say anything.

As long as I don't expose my identity, they can only suffer in silence!”

After Yao Ning finished speaking, his soul sense probed out, locking onto Fan Dongyang in the adjacent courtyard.

He said, "Dongyang, come over here!"

“Buzz~”

Fan Dongyang directly teleported over.

He bowed to Yao Ning, and Yao Ning said, "Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu have encountered danger.

I am going out secretly to rescue them, you and Yao Xi stay here."

“If I don't settle things over there, you stall and don't sign the agreement.

Yao Xi, explain the specific situation to him."

“In short… this time we have to find a way to protect Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu and sell Zhen Ji a big favor, so that His Majesty's side will be easier to handle."

Fan Dongyang listened, seemingly understanding, but he didn't ask any more questions, just cupped his hands in obedience.

Yao Ning didn't say much, and directly took the Emperor of Heaven and teleported away, disappearing from the courtyard.

After Yao Ning left, Fan Dongyang asked, "Yao Xi, what exactly is the situation, tell me carefully.

Lord Ning, why do you want to take action in the Eastern Region?”

“Grandpa Dongyang, it's like this…”

Yao Xi explained everything she knew, as well as Yao Ning's various speculations.

After Fan Dongyang heard this, a look of excitement appeared in his eyes.

He said, "His Majesty actually has descendants left outside?

This is a great thing.

Lord Ning is doing the right thing.

If we stand by and do nothing, Zhen Ji will be furious, and His Majesty may never be able to reunite with the little princess for the rest of his life."

“Moreover, we have already formed an alliance with the other two regions, and the Eastern Region is now afraid that we won't ally.

They are also afraid that we will fully support Zhen Ji's return to seize power."

“So as long as Lord Ning doesn't publicly expose his identity, Baiyujing won't dare to fart, we have to think of a way to cooperate with Lord Ning…”

Yao Xi nodded slightly, looking south and said, "I hope Ning Zu arrives in time.

There are three Dao Ancestor Realm cultivators over there, I don't know if Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu can withstand it?”

…

Jiang Han could naturally withstand it, because at this moment he was almost at the entrance to Tianyu.

He teleported continuously, heading towards the entrance to Tianyu at the fastest speed.

He was anxious because he didn't know what the situation was on Ye Wanqiu's side, how many Dao Ancestor Realm cultivators were besieging him.

He could only come back for help.

After teleporting four or five more times, he finally arrived near the entrance.

But he didn't rashly go to the entrance, because he wasn't sure if there were any Dao Ancestor Realm cultivators lurking here?

If there were, he might be instantly killed.

He stopped a full thousand miles away from the entrance.

He thought about it and released Little Vermilion Bird.

Then he had Little Vermilion Bird release a clone to investigate the entrance.

Little Vermilion Bird controlled the clone to fly quickly, and after a while Little Vermilion Bird shouted, but Jiang Han couldn't understand Little Vermilion Bird's words.

He could only keep asking and keep eliminating possibilities.

After a while, his face became a little ugly!

Judging from the information Little Vermilion Bird provided, the entrance seemed to be… sealed!

There was a very powerful seal at the entrance.

If he wanted to forcibly blast it open, it would take a lot of time.

Moreover, this place was not far from Blue Crystal City.

If he bombarded the seal, it would immediately alarm the powerhouses of Blue Crystal City.

The Xu Clan's base camp was in Blue Crystal City, who knew if the Xu Clan Chief was in the city?

“Forget it, I’ll go investigate first!”

Jiang Han gritted his teeth, left a few drops of blood essence nearby, then put Little Vermilion Bird into the Other Shore Space, and flew towards the entrance as a stream of light.

Sure enough…

Before he got close, Jiang Han saw the cave at the entrance shining brightly from afar.

The formation at the entrance was activated, it was sealed.

If the inside wasn't opened, he wouldn't be able to get in, and he wouldn't be able to reach Tianyu City.
