No one dared to move.
They didn't know what Zhusha was doing, but once the transformation was complete, these families would face a new problem. No one was willing to accept this result. Otherwise, all their previous efforts would be in vain.
However, Jon blocked everyone's path.
This time, when they were finally willing to unite against the outside world, Jon had also completed the final arrangement.
A pair of black wings unfolded from the void and wrapped around Zhusha's body, blocking all the gazes of those who wanted to harm her.
Even when the Lee family's sword slashed at Zhusha several times, only a few black feathers fell. Jon didn't bleed at all.
"Stop fooling around. It's all futile. Don't worry, I know Zhusha very well. She won't do anything to you."
Who would believe that!
However, after seeing Jon's strange ability, no one doubted his ability.
If Jon and Zhusha were to hide in the illusory crack, they would not be able to do anything as the White Jade Capital would not be able to reappear anytime soon.
Sullen!
However, everyone present was an old man. Changing expressions was a common occurrence for them. Even the Lee family's patriarch, who attacked Jon, instantly put on a smiling face and went to talk to Zhusha's mother.
Jon didn't react to this. He quietly opened a crack and sent Grindelwald and Dumbledore away. Although the two of them could leave on their own, in order to ensure that no one would discover them, Jon was the best choice.
The people here couldn't deal with him, but it didn't mean that they couldn't deal with the two of them.
Everything had to be considered for the big picture. They were no longer children who could ask for help from adults.
Although it had only been a few years, the world had changed. The two of them had grown up and could take charge of their own affairs.
Dumbledore and Grindelwald didn't have much to do after this. They only needed to tour the mountains and rivers to make up for their shortcomings. After that, they would continue to climb higher. There was no need for them to occupy a place here.
At that time, they brought the two of them here because they were worried that Jon wouldn't be able to handle something unexpected. However, it seemed that Jon had underestimated himself.
His ability was much stronger than these people who lived in decline. However, when Zhusha woke up, it would be a different story.
Even if he didn't know what Zhusha was doing, Jon could see that the Legendary omens she had condensed were definitely not inferior to his.
"Looking at the current situation, I'm afraid we won't have the chance to do anything."
Of course, this didn't include the Zhu family's patriarch.
In this matter, the Zhu family's patriarch already had a vested interest in it. Naturally, he wouldn't collude with them.
At their age, nothing was more important than the future of their descendants and the future of their family. At this age, no matter how much he lived, he would only live for a few decades at most. Meanwhile, Zhusha was talented and intelligent. Back then, the family plotted to send her mother to Europe to steal the bloodline of a deity. In the end, although the initial goal of the plan wasn't achieved, by a freak combination of factors, they obtained a precious descendant like Zhusha. Now that Zhusha's father's bloodline had been wiped out by Zhusha, she was completely a member of the Zhu family.
Under such circumstances, no matter how one looked at it, the Zhu family's patriarch would definitely nurture Zhusha as his successor, not to mention that Zhusha herself was outstanding enough and had such a wide network of friends.
Even he couldn't casually find such a young Legendary Wizard to help him, especially when Jon was so powerful at such a young age. The bloodline of the Mystic Bird couldn't be more mysterious. There were no records of the Mystic Bird's descendants in the entire East, but Zhusha was able to know such a person. If this wasn't the blessing of fate, then the old man really didn't know what it was.
"What else can we do? Well, there's really nothing we can do. I told you when this little girl came back, "the old woman said.
"People like her who come back from adventuring outside, especially those with sufficient talent, are much stronger than those children in our family who have always been locked up in their residences to cultivate. Once this matter is over, I'll make sure that none of the younger generation in the family is allowed to leave. Once we old fogeys die, even if we can't stand up to the Zhu family, we'll still have to maintain our status in the family."
"Old Sister's words are reasonable. I also plan to do the same."
An old man stroked his beard and said, "But it's hard to say. I see that this girl has been asleep for so long. Could she have run into some sort of trouble?
She did cause quite a stir, but you and I both know that a big stir is bound to lead to great trouble. I see that thing up there. It probably doesn't belong to us. "
Zhu Sha's origins had never been a secret among the great families. The Zhu family had never hidden it, and there was no need to hide such a thing. Back then, every family had participated in the plan. In the end, they had chosen the current head of the Zhu family to be married off. If not for the fact that the current generation of the Zhu family's male descendants were truly useless, this old ancestor would not have brought back his granddaughter who had been married off.
But no matter what, this was what the Zhu family deserved. Although they were a little jealous, they would not go so far as to take Zhu Sha's life.
Previously, when they had led the power to Zhu Sha, they had already planned that if Zhu Sha did not succeed in breaking through, they would have to give some compensation. This was something that even the old ancestor of the Zhu family had agreed to.
But they had not expected Jon to be involved.
Thus, at this time, the situation was clear. They clearly could not do anything else, so doing nothing was the best option.
Now that this group of people had quieted down, Jon was no longer vexed.
He was calculating Zhu Sha's current situation. His fingers were constantly moving in the air, but he did not put away his wings.
But not long after, he suddenly put away the wings that were protecting Zhu Sha. Then, he and the two Zhu family members who were guarding Zhu Sha retreated a great distance.
"What's going on?"
Zhu Sha's mother was naturally the one who was most concerned about her daughter. After all, she had been forced to leave Zhu Sha because of the family's orders. Naturally, she felt that she owed her daughter a lot.
While the others present were all concerned about Zhu Sha for the sake of their own interests, this mother was definitely not.
"It's nothing."
Jon comforted her, "I think her Legendary Omens are about to finish. She should be waking up soon."
