As the sun was setting, when the night unknowingly spread across the courtyard of Zhou Family, at this moment, Cang Yun, who was currently cultivating, was awoken by a shout.

"Young Master Cang, Sector lord has called you over for a feast."

Hearing that familiar voice, Cang Yun quickly got off the bed and opened the door: "Thank you, Uncle Fu."

Regarding the matter of Zhou Hao calling him to join the banquet, Cang Yun was not surprised at all. Thinking about what happened in Zhou Family today, the former should already know about it, so calling him over probably had something to attend to. Thus, Cang Yun followed behind Uncle Fu and headed towards the main hall.

After a while, Cang Yun stood at the entrance and cast his gaze into the hall. There, three figures were conversing with each other happily, and other than Zhou Hao and Zhou Xian'er, the father and daughter, the other person was a beautiful woman. Her face was very similar to Zhou Xian'er's, with fair skin and exquisite facial features.

She was Zhou Xian'er's mother and the only Madame Sector lord of the Sunfire Realm.

"Uncle Zhou, Aunt." Cang Yun walked into the hall and bowed respectfully towards Zhou Hao and his wife.

"Yun'er is here?"

"Come, sit down."

Zhou Hao and his wife spoke out, looking at Cang Yun with kind eyes.

"Big Brother Cang Yun." Zhou Xian'er also smiled sweetly, and jumped to Cang Yun's side, immediately pulling the latter along, and sat down beside her.

"Alright, let's eat first. Let's talk while we eat." Zhou Hao smiled and said.

Cang Yun nodded his head. In this kind of situation, although he was the only outsider, he did not feel uneasy.

"Yun'er, I heard that Zhou Shan that brat came to find trouble with you today because of the clan's land quota?" Halfway through their meal, Zhou Hao raised his head and asked.

"That's true." Cang Yun nodded.

"These stinking brats." Zhou Hao frowned, then looked at Cang Yun a little worriedly: "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, I just injured Zhou Shan, and caused trouble for you, Uncle Zhou." Seeing the concern on Zhou Hao's face, Cang Yun's heart felt a wave of warmth, and then, he apologetically recounted the entire matter. After all, Zhou Shan was a person of the Zhou Family, so doing this would cause him to lose face.

"That's nothing, as long as you're fine." Zhou Hao waved his hand, he muttered to himself for a moment, then suddenly said solemnly: "There are some things that I need to tell you."

"Is this related to the Zhou Family's trial?" Because Cang Yun had already guessed what he had said earlier, he asked probing.

Zhou Hao nodded his head, as his expression became extremely solemn, "The opening of the clan grounds this time is different from usual. It concerns my Zhou Family, and even the rise of the Sun Force Realm."

Hearing that, Cang Yun raised his eyebrows, the weight of Zhou Hao's words was not normal.

"You should have also heard some rumours. In the deepest parts of the Zhou Family's territory, there is the inheritance of the Zhou Family's ancestors. And the main purpose of opening the territory this time is for them."

"Because there is a special restriction at the location of the inheritance, and no Zhou Family disciple has been able to break it for over a thousand years, so the inheritance has always been covered in dust until now, but now there is a chance. Xian'er's physique is the same as the ancestor's, and according to my calculations, this physique is the key to activating the seal." Zhou Hao slowly narrated.

"Xian'Er?" Cang Yun blinked his eyes, he never expected that the weird girl beside him would have such good luck.

At the same time, Cang Yun suddenly understood in his heart, no wonder that Huo Wushuang had come to propose marriage, not only Zhou Hao was against it, even the other leaders of the Zhou Family did not have the intention to agree to it.

Cang Yun had no doubt that the inheritance he left behind would not be ordinary either. If word of this were to spread, it would definitely cause a huge commotion, and even some of the stronger experts would find their hearts moved, but in comparison, the fire boundary's marriage proposal seemed insignificant.

However, in regards to this, other than being happy for Xian'er, Cang Yun did not have any other thoughts. He had already obtained an inheritance from the 'Blood Realm' once, and the name 'Blood Realm' was even more famous than the ancestor of the Zhou Family.

"Since Xian`er's physique can activate the seal, then that means the inheritance must have been specially prepared for this physique, right?" After pondering for a moment, Cang Yun asked.

"That should be the case." Zhou Hao nodded his head in agreement, but after that, a look of worry surfaced on his face, and he said: "However, the premise is that no one is fighting over it."

"So it's like that." Cang Yun also frowned. He had personally experienced Zhou Hao's worry before, that two years ago, during the Blood Realm's trial, if he was not baptized by the "Blood Monument", he would not have been so easily ambushed.

Seeing the worry on Zhou Hao and Cang Yun's faces, Zhou Xian'er blinked his eyes and said softly: But this time, those who are participating in the trial, are all from the Zhou Family, so that shouldn't happen right?

Hearing this, Cang Yun and Zhou Hao looked at each other and fell silent. They both knew Zhou Xian'er very well and the latter was extremely favored and doted upon in the Zhou Family.

"We didn't say that would happen. Uncle Zhou and I were just worried. After all, your safety is the most important thing." After a moment of silence, seeing that Zhou Hao did not have any intentions of explaining, Cang Yun could only smile and console him.

That's why I discussed it with the ancestor this time. Yun'er, you should also be allowed to participate in the Zhou Family's trial, and according to the ancestor's intentions, as long as you can protect Xian'er from receiving the inheritance, the Sunfire Realm will form an alliance with the azure world. Zhou Hao said.

An alliance?

When Cang Yun heard this heavyweight news, he opened his mouth in shock. The weight of this phrase was not low, especially for azure world, who was at the brink of war, it was a pleasant surprise.

But thinking about that condition, Cang Yun smiled bitterly: "To protect Xian'er, even without the condition given by the Zhou Family's ancestor, I would still do it, but with my strength, if something like that really happened, I'm afraid ?"

Cang Yun did not finish his words, but the meaning in his words was clear, and did not reject, but only stated the truth.

"I understand." Zhou Hao's face was also filled with helplessness, but soon after, he stared at Cang Yun with shining eyes, and said: "But among the younger generation, the only one who can make me believe you, is you."

Cang Yun's expression became serious as he looked at Zhou Hao and his wife who had pleading expressions on their faces. Then, he glanced at Zhou Xian'er who was beside him and finally nodded heavily.
