Listening to the conversation between Zhou Qinglian and Qi Xinglang, Du Tingxuan and the rest were even more confused. They had never heard of the Beigong Family before.
While the crowd was talking, the four people had already descended and arrived above the Imperial Palace.
Du Tingxuan, Zhen Qingchun, Xun Youfang, Qi Xinglang, and the rest flew up to meet them.
"Excuse me, is this where the Du Family of the Barren Nation is?"
Among the four young men and women, a graceful lady opened her red lips and asked.
A faint smile hung on the woman's face. She was elegant and serene, giving people a comfortable feeling like they were bathing in the spring breeze.
Beside her, there were two other men and one woman. They looked very friendly.
"I am Du Tingxuan. I am from the Du Family."
Du Tingxuan stepped forward and cupped his hands as he said.
Although he did not know the purpose of their visit, he had to be polite since they had treated him with respect.
Moreover, he discovered that even with his Half-Step Heavenly Saint Stage cultivation base, it was difficult for him to see through these people. Compared to the people from the five great clans who had come to visit, they were much more profound and vast.
It was obvious that their strength was very high.
Lin Fan was curious about such an expert.
"So you are the father of the Roc Emperor. I am Beigong Yingruo. Greetings!"
The graceful lady bowed to Du Tingxuan and the rest.
"I am Beigong Ningshuang. Greetings!"
Another beautiful lady beside Beigong Yingruo said. She also cupped her hands and bowed to Du Tingxuan and the rest.
"I am Beigong Zhangqing!"
"I am Beigong Tianhuan!"
The other two handsome men also introduced themselves. Their expressions were amiable.
"Greetings!"
Du Tingxuan replied politely. However, he was also very confused.
The moment the four people from the Beigong Family arrived, they mentioned that they were looking for the Barren Nation and the Du Family. They also knew that he was the father of the Roc Emperor.
This meant that they were here for the Barren Country and the Du Clan. However, no one knew what their purpose was.
At this moment, Xun Youfang, Qian Xuzi, Qi Xinglang, Zhou Qinglian, and Hu Sandao also stepped forward and greeted the four young men and women respectfully.
"So it's the seniors from the Confucian School, Daoist School, Yin-Yang School, School of Agriculture, and School of Mohism."
Beigong Ying Ruo said with a smile, and also bowed slightly towards the five people.
"Senior … I really don't dare to accept this!"
Xun Youfang, Qian Xu Zi, and the other four hurriedly waved their hands and dodged this salute.
All of them knew that although the four men and women appeared young, and were perhaps much younger than the five of them, their cultivation and strength were all above them.
Therefore, they didn't dare to acknowledge him as Senior.
"May I know why you have come to my Desolate Country?"
Du Tingxuan asked in confusion.
Even the experts of the Five Great Clans were extremely respectful towards this person. His origin was definitely not simple. In his heart, he was even more curious about this Beigong Clan.
"Roc Emperor's father, let's go down and talk!"
Before Beigong Ying Ruo could speak, Beigong Ningshuang, who was beside her, said.
"This way, please!"
Du Tingxuan stepped to the side and led the four people into the palace.
At this moment, the people of the Five Great Clans said their goodbyes to the people of the Desolate Country.
Although they also wanted to know why the people of the Beigong Clan had come to the Desolate Country, it was not appropriate for them to ask.
The few of them were also wary of that mysterious family.
There were some things that were better left unknown.
After Du Tingxuan and Zhen Qingchun sent off the people of the Five Great Clans, they led the four young men of the Beigong Clan into a large hall in the palace.
After everyone was seated, Beigong Ying Ruo did not beat around the bush. Instead, she directly stated the purpose of her trip to the Desolate Country. "The four of us were asked by someone to help the Roc Emperor!"
"Help Shaofu?"
When Du Tingxuan and Zhen Qingchun heard this, they were stunned for a moment.
Du Shaofu had fallen in the battle with the Demon God. They did not know what kind of state he was in, nor did they know if he would be able to recover in the end.
Although everyone had strong expectations, they also knew that everything depended on the will of the heavens.
However, the four people of the Beigong Clan had actually said that they were here for Du Shaofu and wanted to help him.
Obviously, they also knew about Du Shaofu's current situation.
However, the strange thing was that the Desolate Country had always kept this information under wraps. Other than a few important people, even the disciples of the Du Clan did not know about it. Everyone thought that he had really fallen.
They really did not understand how these people had found out about it.
When they thought of this, Du Tingxuan, Yi Wuming, Zhen Qingchun, Ouyang Shuang, and the others were filled with respect for the four young men and women.
At the very least, the person who had asked them to come was definitely the Master of Terror.
"Pardon me for asking, but I wonder who asked you all to do this?"
Zhen Qingchun asked with a strange expression on his face.
However, Beigong Ying Ruo and the other three young men smiled mysteriously and did not answer.
When they saw their expressions, Du Tingxuan, Zhen Qingchun, and the others instantly had countless thoughts.
"Could it be …"
The group of people from the Desolate Country looked at each other and seemed to have thought of the same possibility. Their faces were filled with shock.
"There's no time to lose. Everyone, please take us to see the Roc Emperor's situation!"
Beigong Tianhuan said.
Hearing this, Du Tingxuan could not help but frown slightly. He appeared to be very cautious as he asked, "Forgive me for offending you, but how can I trust you?"
There was some doubt in his words. Even Zhen Qingchun, Ouyang Shuang, and the others who were at the side became nervous when they heard this. They looked at the four young men and women cautiously.
Du Tingxuan was not lying. In terms of cultivation, the four of them were much stronger than them.
Even in this restricted world, it was difficult to see through their strength. At the very least, they were able to display the strength of a Heavenly Saint.
In the 33 Heavens, they should be outstanding figures. It could be seen from the respectful attitude of the Confucian School, School of Yin-Yang, and the others towards them.
Logically speaking, such experts should be able to deceive them easily. The Desolate Country did not seem to have any interactions with these people.
However, this was related to Du Shaofu's safety. If they were led to the Du family's ancestral hall rashly, who could guarantee that these people would not do anything bad?
If this was really the case, once they affected Du Shaofu's recovery, it would be too late for everyone in the Desolate Country to regret it.
Du Tingxuan was very careful and did not easily trust these strangers. It was necessary.
"Hehe …"
Among the four people from the Beigong family, the young man called Beigong Zhangqing smiled slyly. He seemed to have expected this situation.
Just as his laughter sounded, the aura of his entire body suddenly changed. His body, which was originally incomparably calm and had no aura leaking out, suddenly erupted with a vast and vigorous aura.
"Buzz …"
Bursts of green light burst out from his body and spread throughout the hall. However, it was controlled very well and did not spill out of the hall.
Following this situation, Du Tingxuan, Zhen Qingchun, Yi Wuming and Ouyang Shuang all felt their Yuan Spirits tremble. There was an indescribable fear in their hearts. That wild and deep green light emitted an incomparably vast pressure that caused one's heart to involuntarily palpitate.
But at the same time, they also sensed a dense aura of life circulating around.
Around Beigong Zhangqing's body, the green light rapidly flowed and transformed. In the end, it condensed into an object and floated behind him.
"This is …"
Du Tingxuan and the others gaped as they looked behind Beigong Zhangqing. The object formed from light felt extremely familiar.
"Isn't this the image of the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor from the Fang Jijia family?"
Ouyang Shuang blinked several times as she said in surprise.
Indeed, the object that Beigong Zhangqing had condensed was exactly the same as the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor from the Fang Jijia family. It was almost tangible.
Everyone couldn't be more familiar with the majestic aura and boundless vitality of the Heavenly King.
Just by standing in the main hall, the people of the Desolate Nation could not help but feel carefree. It was as if the vitality in their bodies had increased. Every inch of their muscles seemed to be alive, as if they were about to come to life. They were incomparably happy.
If it weren't for the fact that the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree that Beigong Zhangqing had condensed was very different, they would have believed that the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor from the Fang Jijia family had personally come here.
"Is the Beigong family related to the Fang Jijia family?"
Zhen Qingchun couldn't help but ask as he looked at the four youths from the Beigong family.
Perhaps they couldn't trust these strangers, but if they really did have a deep relationship with the Fang Jijia family, then they were indeed worthy of trust.
"Your guess is correct. The Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor from the Fang Jijia family comes from my Beigong family. The arts that our family cultivates can be said to originate from him. That's why when we see him, we have to call him Senior Heavenly Wood Divine Tree! Strictly speaking, it wouldn't be wrong to call him Ancestor. "
Beigong Yingruo smiled, indicating for Beigong Zhangqing to retract the image behind him.
Then, she leisurely took a few steps forward and arrived next to Du Tingxuan's group. She continued, "Although the Fang Jijia family doesn't have a bloodline connection with our Beigong family, their abilities are all related to the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor. Thus, they can be said to be of the same family."
"The Fang Jijia family and the Beigong family can be said to be of the same family. The Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor actually has such a background …"
Du Tingxuan's group was astonished. The Desolate Nation and the Fang Jijia family could be considered to have a deep relationship. Everyone knew about the matter between Du Shaofu and Dongli Qingqing.
As for the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor, he had followed the ruler of the three thousand Greater Worlds and the Dragon God to this world. In the end, he had even suppressed the origin spirit of the Demon God. He was an absolutely powerful existence.
However, it was precisely because of this that the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor's strength had been greatly reduced for countless years due to the suppression of the Demon God.
Even during the great calamity of the Devil religion, he had only recovered to the Great Circle of the Saint realm. He had not reached the Sky Saint realm like Fu Yibai and the others.
However, no one in the Desolate Nation would look down on the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor of the Fang Jijia family. Sooner or later, he would return to the peak. It was just that no one knew what kind of realm he would be in at that time.
"I heard that the Fang Jijia family of this world has also produced many good seedlings. Of course, our main goal is to help the Roc Emperor, but when the time comes, we will also take a few experts with us to the Extreme Jade Complete Heaven. We will even return to the main family to receive the Beigong family's grooming. As for the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor, he has been heavily injured for many years. Naturally, we will invite him back to the family so that he can recover faster. "
Beigong Tianhuan said in a serious tone.
It was not difficult for Ouyang Shuang and Zhen Qingchun to notice that whenever these youths mentioned the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor, they would be very serious and respectful.
Du Tingxuan incessantly nodded, becoming even more curious about the Beigong family. It seemed to be an extremely powerful faction that was not below the Hundred Schools of Thought. In fact, it might even be more prosperous.
However, he couldn't make a decision for the time being. He didn't dare to rashly ask them to "help" Du Shaofu.
He had his doubts. Although he didn't have absolute certainty, he still believed the words of these four.
However, this matter was truly too serious. Without absolute certainty, he didn't dare to take the risk.
This was because this matter concerned Du Shaofu's life. He couldn't afford to gamble.
Du Tingxuan tightly knitted his brows and didn't say anything for a long time. He was clearly very hesitant.
The doubts in his heart prevented him from quickly making a decision, but at the same time, he didn't want to neglect these youths.
No matter what was said, they had most likely come with sincerity. If he made too much of a ruckus, it wouldn't be a good thing.
Seeing this situation, Beigong Yingruo, Beigong Ningshuang, Beigong Tianhuan, and Beigong Zhangqing looked at each other and couldn't help but bitterly smile.
They could naturally guess what Du Tingxuan was thinking.
What they didn't expect was that the people of the Desolate Country would be so cautious.
They had already said that the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor had come, but they were still unable to gain his complete trust.
However, after thinking about it, they understood. After all, this matter concerned Du Shaofu's life. They had no choice but to be cautious.
"Father, should we send someone to invite the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor to the Desolate Country?"
Ouyang Shuang walked up and asked Du Tingxuan.
Although this was a little disrespectful to the four members of the Beigong Family, it was indeed the most feasible method.
"That's not too good! Before we set off, the clan had already contacted the Fang Ji family. However, with the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor's status, as a descendant of the Beigong family, we should be the ones to invite him. "
Beigong Ningshuang pondered for a moment before speaking.
"How about this, we'll make a trip to the Fang Ji family first. The Roc Emperor doesn't lack a day or two. Wait for us to return, "Beigong Tianhuan said straightforwardly.
This was the only way to completely dispel the doubts of the people of the Desolate Country.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a loud laugh was heard from outside the hall.
"Hahahaha … No need, I'll do it myself!"
Before he could finish his sentence, a vast wave of energy descended and quietly filled the entire hall.
Azure light flickered as large amounts of mysterious runes blossomed, illuminating the surroundings as if a new world was opening.
The boundless light was like an azure sun in the sky, as if a god had descended. A figure wearing a long robe silently appeared. He was middle-aged and had long azure hair that draped over his shoulders.
Behind him was an old woman. She was old, but her eyes were deep.
Other than that, there were also a few other young people who appeared in the main hall.
"Senior Heavenly Wood Divine Tree!"
When these people appeared, Du Tingxuan, Zhen Qingchun, and the others were overjoyed.
The middle-aged man was none other than the Fang Ji family's Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor. The old woman behind him was Dongli Qingqing's master.
Dongli Qingqing and Dongli Ruoyun were among the youths, as well as a few other young experts.
As for Dongli Ruoshu of the Fang Ji family, she had died in battle several months ago.
"Senior Heavenly Wood Divine Tree!"
Seeing the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree arrive, Beigong Yingruo, Beigong Ningshuang, Beigong Tianhuan, and Beigong Zhangqing all came forward and bowed respectfully.
"No need to be so courteous!"
The Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor smiled. His body emitted light as he helped the four up.
In truth, with his current strength, he was far from being able to compare to these four youths. However, when he bowed to them, he was at ease.
"Not bad. After so many years, the younger generation of the Beigong family is still full of heroes!"
Looking at the four youths of the Beigong family, the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor nodded in satisfaction.
"Senior praises us too much. We don't know how many more years we need to cultivate before we can reach Senior's level!"
Beigong Yingruo blushed as she sincerely said.
"Haha … The current me is far from being able to compare to you!"
The Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor laughed, as if he wasn't embarrassed to mention this matter in front of the younger generation.
His strength was still far from recovering, so he truly couldn't compare to these youths.
"Ancestor, the family has instructed us to invite you back before going to the Lingwu World. With the environment there, it will be of great help to your recovery!"
Beigong Yingruo respectfully said.
"Let's talk about this later. Let's do the most important thing first!"
The Heavenly Wood Divine Tree waved his hand.
To the side, everyone from the Desolate Country was astonished. They couldn't help but be puzzled. Just what kind of place was the Lingwu World that Beigong Yingruo spoke of?
Previously, when Fu Yibai had told them about the Thirty-three Heavens, all of them had been puzzled.
Behind the Master of the Three Thousand Great Worlds should be the Three Thousand Great Worlds. Why had the Thirty-three Heavens suddenly appeared?
And now, they heard the words' Lingwu World 'again. What kind of place was that? Why would it be of the greatest help to the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree's recovery? Could it be an extremely mystical place?
For a moment, everyone was puzzled. They couldn't figure out what was going on.
"There are some things that you will naturally understand after going to the Thirty-three Heavens. Now is not the time to tell you."
The Heavenly Wood Divine Tree Ancestor looked at the expressions of Du Tingxuan and the others and smiled. "Right now, let's go take a look at that kid. I wonder how his recovery is going! I also received news from the higher realms. These youths are trustworthy. "
