Longevity Immortal City.
Zhou Family.
At this moment, the Zhou Family was on high alert, with Jin Quanxiu personally guarding the outside of Zhou Shen’s room. Zhou Ning led the family members on constant patrols, afraid of any accidents happening.
As for Chen Chen, he was aware of this and didn’t have any thoughts of approaching Zhou Shen’s location. Instead, he patrolled the perimeter of the Zhou Family, doing his bit to help.
This made Zhou Ning’s impression of him improve a lot, but even so, he didn’t express anything, not even verbal promises. However, without realizing it, Zhou Ning’s daily meals had greatly improved.
Anyway, those who understood the situation would understand. Chen Chen gladly accepted this and understood everything without needing any words. Saying it out loud would just make it awkward.
Yesterday, under Liang Sheng’s instruction, Huang Yifan had arrived at the Zhou Family and personally delivered a bottle of Nascent Soul Pills.
After that, Huang Yifan did not leave the Zhou Family and instead hid in the shadows, cooperating with Jin Quanxiu to guard Zhou Shen’s breakthrough.
The two of them, one out in the open and the other hidden, formed a joint force, hoping to help Zhou Shen successfully break through to the Nascent Soul Realm.
This would be the first homegrown Nascent Soul Master of the Zhou Family since they joined the Immortal City. The Zhou Family had been waiting for such a Nascent Soul Master for a long, long time.
Therefore, the Zhou Family would not tolerate any failures. Their current top priority was to block all unexpected factors and not let anyone disturb Liang Sheng.
At this moment, the sky had turned dark, with stars scattered across the sky. The light curtain that Feng Yuan had cast to cover the Outer Heaven Beast Swamp was still emitting a faint glow.
Ordinary cultivators in the Immortal City knew very little about Zhou Shen’s impending breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm today, but the City Lord Mansion naturally knew about it. However, they kept it tacitly.
Feng Yuan did not have any intention to stop Zhou Shen’s breakthrough. At this time, their concern should be focused on the person behind the Zhou Family, not Zhou Shen himself.
Although he indeed possessed the talent of a gifted child, innate talents that have not been converted into actual strength were not worth mentioning at this time and did not pose a threat yet.
There were priorities in everything. As a cultivator of great strength like Feng Yuan, he understood the importance of prioritizing things during this Era of Great Contention.
Having been tense for several days, he finally relaxed a bit today because a reply from the Capital City had finally been received. His master, Chunyangzi, would soon arrive.
Ling Xiaozi ultimately decided to stay in Capital City Soul Song to be prepared for any eventuality, while Chunyangzi, eager to protect his disciple, decided to personally visit Longevity Immortal City after much deliberation.
As for the person behind the scenes described by Feng Yuan, Chunyangzi was also somewhat uneasy in his heart, with hardly any confidence of success.
After all, based on the introductions of Feng Yuan and Kaiyuan Child, the other party’s cultivation level was likely higher than theirs, but he had no choice but to come.
If he didn’t come, all their prior planning and efforts would probably be in vain, merely providing assistance to others.
