Lu Yin's group walked out of the pillar of light and looked around. This place was no different from the one below; it was still filled with mountains, rivers, and forests, but there were no cities here.
"There are hundreds of millions of people living in the Wang Family's mainland. They are the direct and collateral descendants of the Wang Family, as well as those cultivators and their descendants who have contributed to the Wang Family and are qualified to live here. Of course, there are also some criminals that the Wang Family has captured. This is the core civilization of the Wang Family," Leiwu explained briefly.
Longtian was indifferent, "Let's go and find Wang Zheng." He then headed off in a certain direction.
They had only used Leiwu to ascend to the Wang Family Continent, which would be easily detected by the Frigid Immortal Sect. There would be no need to hide once they reached the Wang Family Continent. If the Frigid Immortal Sect had people watching them as well, it would be even better for them.
The Wang Family Continent wasn't large, at least not to Envoys.
Lu Yin and Longtian easily found the main branch. Longtian had been here before, and Lu Yin had pretended to be injured to follow behind him.
Longtian didn't suspect anything and contacted Wang Zheng when they weren't too far away from the main branch.
Lu Yin looked up at the ball of light. Was it true that it had burned a Progenitor to death before?
The most powerful person in the history of the Wang Family should be Wang Fan, who was ranked in the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas. Was this Wang Fan's method?
The two didn't speak, and an Envoy from the Wang Family came to lead them to the main branch.
The main branch of the Wang Family was Wang Zheng's branch, and this had never changed. Wang Zheng was also Wang Fan's descendant, and as long as Wang Fan was alive, the main branch would always be this branch. Even Wang Xiaofan, who was currently studying at Yi Xian Academy, was Wang Zheng's youngest son.
Among the four branches, the White Dragon Clan's main branch was the most unstable. They had the weakest foundations, and whoever was stronger would become the main branch. The other three main branches were very stable because they were all descendants of ancestors. The Shenwu Plane's main branch was the most ruthless in robbing the branch, but the Wang and Bai families were still fine.
Lu Yin saw many Wang Family cultivators along the way, but not all of them were from the main branch. Most of them were from the side branches.
It had to be said that the Wang Family was a powerful family that had existed since the era of Heaven. Even the side branches had many elites that the White Dragon Clan couldn't compare to.
Not long after, they met Wang Zheng in the main hall.
"Greetings, Uncle." Long Tian bowed respectfully.
Lu Yin bowed as well. "Greetings, senior." He was using Xia Yuan's identity, and he didn't know how to address Wang Zheng.
Wang Zheng looked at Long Tian. "You're here because of your father, right?"
Long Tian replied, "Yes."
Wang Zheng said in a low voice, "I'm just telling you what I saw, and I have no intention of harming your father. If your father is innocent, the Frigid Immortal Sect will release him; otherwise, the Dragon Ancestor won't agree. You can go back now."
Long Tian and Lu Yin looked at each other and passed the letter to Wang Zheng.
Wang Zheng was puzzled.
"Uncle, if you have any doubts, you will know at a glance." Long Tian said.
Wang Zheng took the jade stone and looked at it. His expression changed, and he looked at the jade stone from Shen Wu Heaven.
Lu Yin had seen the jade before, and it had detailed his speculations about the Shenwu Plane. He believed that the White Dragon Tribe's jade was similar, and he had expected Wang Zheng to have such a reaction.
After Wang Zheng finished looking at the jade stone, he looked at Lu Yin with a serious expression. "Is this Xia Xing and Xia Ziheng's speculation?"
Lu Yin nodded and coughed twice. "All the signs confirm Sect Master and Patriarch Ziheng's speculations. Senior, think about it carefully. If it wasn't for the Frigid Immortal Sect, how could Bai Teng have disappeared?
He was right under the nose of the Culinary God, who is currently the closest Half-Ancestor to the Progenitor realm in the Astral Tree Realm. He's on par with the White Dragon Tribe's Grand Elder Ni Huang. Unless it's a Progenitor, no one would be able to capture Bai Teng without anyone noticing. "
Long Tian added, "My father definitely doesn't want to deal with Bai Teng. In fact, Uncle should be clear about the White Dragon Tribe's situation. Our foundation is too shallow, and our main bloodline has withered. If it weren't for the fact that I'm still here, and that there's no one in the side bloodline who can match me, my father might not be the tribe leader. My father has always been concerned about the tribe's internal affairs, so why would he suddenly attack Sect Master Bai Teng?"
Wang Zheng fell into deep thought.
Lu Yin continued, "Yi Xian Academy's Yu Hao is backed by Divine Master Gu Yan, and the Frigid Immortal Sect has been allowing Bai Weiwei to get close to Yu Hao. I don't know what kind of promise they made, but Yu Hao and the Frigid Immortal Sect are getting closer and closer. If my guess is correct, the Frigid Immortal Sect not only wants to rope in Divine Master Gu Yan, but they also want to take over the Star Alliance. If they succeed, then we'll be at a disadvantage against anyone below the Progenitor realm."
Wang Zheng raised his brows. "Even if the Star Alliance joins the Frigid Immortal Sect, they can't completely suppress all three of us."
"Uncle also said that it's the three of us. We guessed the Frigid Immortal Sect's goal, so we secretly came here. Uncle, if we joined forces, then it would be the three of us. What if we didn't guess it?"
Long Tian suggested.
Lu Yin couldn't help but glance at him. This guy really knew how to talk.
Wang Zheng had been taken in by Long Tian's hypothesis. If they didn't know the Frigid Immortal Sect's goal, then Divine Master Gu Yan and the Star Alliance would be under the Frigid Immortal Sect's control.
"Even if the Frigid Immortal Sect's Envoys and Half-Ancestors can suppress us, what about Progenitors?"
Wang Zheng still didn't believe it. "Can the Frigid Immortal Sect rely on their own strength to suppress all three of our ancestors?"
Long Tian frowned. "We haven't figured it out either. Perhaps the Frigid Immortal Sect doesn't think that we'll be able to guess their goal and secretly take over the Star Alliance first. Uncle, don't forget how the Lu family was exiled back then."
Wang Zheng's heart sank, and he frowned.
Long Tian knew the truth behind the Lu family's exile? Impossible.
Lu Yin had asked Xia Xing's clone, but the clone didn't know either. Even Xia Yingxiong didn't know. Even Wang Zheng, the family head, shouldn't know with his strength. After all, even Long Ke didn't know. Otherwise, Lu Yin would have already read the memories. What did Long Tian know?
Wang Zheng sat down and stared at Long Tian. "You've said so much just to get me to help you save your father, right?"
Long Tian replied, "I won't deny it, but if my guess is correct, does the Wang family want to become the next Lu family?"
Wang Zheng's fingers trembled uncontrollably.
"Regardless of whether your guess is correct or not, our three families should resist the Frigid Immortal Sect. They're too strong, especially her." He didn't intentionally point out who she was, as he didn't know who to point out. He just let the two of them guess. He wasn't the real Xia Yuan, and he didn't know much about the Four Way Scales.
Still, his words were very effective.
"No one knows what she'll do once she comes out. No one wants to experience what happened to the Lu family again," Wang Zheng muttered to himself before looking at Lu Yin and Long Tian. "These are just guesses, but since you're here, I'll temporarily agree to your alliance. Our goal is to suppress the Frigid Immortal Sect and nothing else. We're not actively attacking them either. You must understand that the greatest enemy of humanity will always be the Eternals."
The two of them nodded.
Wang Zheng
Wang Zheng rubbed his head. "Actually, whether Bai Teng goes missing or dies has nothing to do with me. I'll find a chance to go to the Frigid Immortal Sect and find a way to rescue Long Ke."
"Thank you, Uncle," Long Tian said gratefully.
Long Ke was imprisoned in the Frigid Immortal Sect because he was suspected of being related to Bai Teng's disappearance. If the White Dragon Tribe didn't want to fall out with the Frigid Immortal Sect, they could only ask Wang Zheng to come forward and change his testimony. Otherwise, they would have to go to war.
The possibility of war wasn't high. Bai Teng was nothing to the Frigid Immortal Sect, and Long Ke was nothing to the White Dragon Tribe. Although the White Dragon Tribe didn't have many experts, they were still one of the Four Way Scales. As long as they recruited outsiders, there would definitely be experts joining them.
The only person in the White Dragon Tribe who wanted to save Long Ke the most was Long Tian.
"Senior, forgive me for being blunt, but how many people in the Wang family know about the Star Alliance's restrictions?"
Lu Yin asked, going straight to the point.
Wang Zheng replied, "Four: the ancestor, me, Elder Wang Si, and Wang Xun, who's at the back of the battlefield."
Wang Xun was the commander of the third base and a Half-Ancestor powerhouse of the Wang family.
"The ancestor doesn't need to consider. Elder Wang Si is currently on the Fifth Mainland hunting down the remnants of the Lu family. As long as I don't leave this continent, the Frigid Immortal Sect can't do anything."
"So that leaves only Commander Wang Xun," Lu Yin continued.
Wang Zheng laughed. "That's impossible. No one would dare to plot against the commander at the back of the battlefield and cause internal strife. Once someone does that, the Four Way Scales will punish them together. This is an ironclad rule. That's why the Duan Yi Society has been secretly controlling the resources at the back of the battlefield.
"According to our speculations, the Frigid Immortal Sect has already captured the Divine Martial Sect's Sect Master, Xia Xing, and detained my father. This means that they've obtained the restrictions of two families. Including their own, they've already obtained three of the restrictions. Uncle's Wang family is the only one left. The Frigid Immortal Sect will definitely think of a way to make a move against Uncle."
Wang Zheng sneered. "As long as I don't leave this continent, no one can do anything to me."
Lu Yin suddenly said, "Don't forget how our sect master went missing."
Wang Zheng's eyes narrowed.
Xia Xing had disappeared in the Middle Level Realm. No one had expected that Xia Xing would suddenly go to the Middle Level Realm, but he had.
"Why did Xia Xing go there?"
Wang Zheng asked.
Longtian also looked at Lu Yin.
They had heard some rumors about Xia Xing's disappearance, but they didn't know the full story. After all, it was related to Yu Hao and could be considered a scandal in the Divine Martial Sect. They had used the Yu family to threaten the Astral Trees, but now they were trying to rope in Yu Hao.
Only the Frigid Immortal Sect knew that Bai Weiwei was too close to Yu Hao.
Lu Yin was in a difficult position, but he still explained why Xia Xing had gone to the Middle Realm.
Wang Zheng frowned. "Celestial Master Gu Yan is indeed worth roping in. It makes sense that Xia Xing went to the Middle Realm for him. Is there anything suspicious about this Yu Hao?"
"Not at the moment. The sect master was hired by someone to assassinate him. Other than us, only Yu Hao and Dean Wen knew why he went to the Middle Realm. However, Ancestor Ziheng guessed that Bai Weiwei might know as well. She's too close to Yu Hao," Lu Yin said.
All sorts of signs were beginning to shift in favor of the Frigid Immortal Sect, and Lu Yin began to push the boat with the current. It would be best if he could make these three families become enemies with the Frigid Immortal Sect, but this hostility would disappear once Yu Hao's identity was exposed. This was because many of the suspicions originated from Yu Hao.
Once Yu Hao's identity was exposed, the Four Cardinal Scales weren't stupid. Many things would become untenable, and the so-called alliance between the three families would naturally collapse.
