Chapter 510: Chapter 316: Great Leaps Forward! Divine Level Threshold (Three-in-One Continuation Request)
“Lu.”
“Did you and that kid from the Zhou Family break things off?” the white-haired elder inquired.
Chen Zilu felt a heaviness in her heart.
The elder addressing this matter right away, could it be due to Zhou Xingkong?
In the past, the Chen Family indeed intended to ally with the Zhou Family to stabilize their position in the next century.
Among the extraordinary families, many coveted the Chen Family’s “Blood Jade Divine Tree.”
“Elder,” Chen Zilu lowered her head and said, “I’ve never talked to Zhou Xingkong, I don’t like him.”
Chen Zilu knew that many in the family were dissatisfied with the matter between her and Zhou Xingkong.
But she was already prepared to be criticized.
Even if the elder confronted her, she would bear it.
“No need to be nervous.”
“I already heard from your grandfather.” The elder said calmly, “You have your own pursuits, which is a good thing.”
“In your childhood, the family indeed neglected you.”
“I won’t force you into anything,” the white-haired elder said.
He knew what had happened to Chen Zilu.
In the past, for various reasons, Chen Zilu was not valued within the family.
It wasn’t until she was about to graduate high school and rose to prominence that the family noticed and truly valued her… Needless to say, her sense of belonging to the Chen Family was very weak.
If not for her grandfather’s connection, Chen Zilu might not have stayed with the Chen Family.
“In a month, it will be my five-hundredth birthday.”
“I intend to hold a birthday banquet and invite powerhouses from all over Blue Star to attend,” the elder said. “Lu, I hope you can bring him along to the banquet.”
Chen Zilu was stunned.
She knew who the elder was referring to.
Jiang Ye!
“Elder.”
“You want to see him?” Chen Zilu furrowed her brows slightly.
“Yes.” The white-haired elder smiled and said, “Rest assured, I won’t make things difficult for him.”
“Since he’s the one you’ve chosen, I’ll prepare a gift for him.”
“Additionally,”
“You can also let him participate in the family’s ’Star Dome Hundred Refinements,’” the elder said. “If he can pass that trial, it would greatly benefit him.”
“Star Dome Hundred Refinements?” Chen Zilu finally showed an expression of surprise.
The Star Dome Hundred Refinements is one of the most significant opportunities of the Chen Family, even more prestigious than the “Blood Jade Divine Tree!”
The Chen Family’s ability to stand on Blue Star for centuries is largely due to these two opportunities.
Even without extraordinary talent appearing.
Relying on these two opportunities, they can barely hold their ground.
“You want him to participate in the Star Dome Hundred Refinements?” Chen Zilu couldn’t help but ask, “Elder, are you sure?”
In principle, the Star Dome Hundred Refinements is a core family secret, not to be shared with outsiders.
“Since you have firmly chosen him.”
“Then he is considered one of the Chen Family in the future,” the elder smiled and said, “Allowing him a prior attempt at the Star Dome Hundred Refinements is no harm.”
“Besides,”
“I also want to see the ability of the young man you’ve chosen,” the elder smiled at Chen Zilu.
But Chen Zilu suddenly fell silent.
Judging by the elder’s meaning, he seemed to approve of her being with Jiang Ye, which should have made her happy.
Yet, the elder’s attitude stirred a subtle guess in Chen Zilu’s heart.
“Elder.”
“Is your time running out?” Chen Zilu looked at the white-haired elder.
This wasn’t a baseless guess.
The longevity limit at the peak of Nine Breaks is four to five hundred years.
“Don’t worry,” the white-haired elder laughed and said, “This old man won’t die that easily.”
“At least,”
“Not before you truly grow,” the white-haired elder said, “I won’t fall.”
Chen Zilu nodded silently.
After a moment.
“Elder,” she said softly, “I’ll bring him to the banquet.”
“Good.” The white-haired elder revealed a slight smile as his figure slowly faded.
Chen Zilu watched as the projection dissipated, her delicate face gradually becoming serious.
“How much time does the elder have left?” Chen Zilu felt a hint of worry in her heart.
The Chen Family elder is the last straw supporting the Chen Family.
Once the elder falls, the situation facing the Chen Family will worsen.
By then, she’d also face greater pressure.
“Must become stronger soon.” Chen Zilu clenched her fair hand, not minding how much pressure she bore, but she didn’t want to implicate Jiang Ye.
The matters of extraordinary families should be left for her to resolve.
Jiang Ye shouldn’t be affected by these burdens.
…
Meanwhile.
Penglai University.
After Jiang Ye left, Zhao Qingli immediately dialed her sister’s number.
“Beep…”
The call connected.
Whoosh~ Numerous light beams gathered to form a figure in a moon-white robe, ethereal and unworldly.
It was Zhao Qingli’s sister, Zhao Jingxue.
“Sister.”
“Look what I’ve gotten this time.” Zhao Qingli smiled, pointing the camera at the array of treasures on the table.
“Hmm?”
“Qingli, how do you have so many precious opportunities?” Zhao Jingxue was also surprised, as a third-tier opportunity, she might not acquire even one in a year.
“Jiang Ye gave them to me,” Zhao Qingli said with pride.
“Jiang Ye?” Zhao Jingxue was incredibly surprised, “How does he have so many third-tier opportunities?”
“Jiang Ye is now late Fourth Break.” Zhao Qingli chuckled, “Getting these wasn’t hard for him at all.”
“Late Fourth Break?” Zhao Jingxue was finally shocked.
She hadn’t heard about Jiang Ye for a long time.
But in her impression, Jiang Ye was still at Third Break.
After all, Zhao Jingxue herself was the top student in her fifth year at Penglai University, and she was only late Third Break.
But Jiang Ye?
He was just a second-year student and already late Fourth Break?
“Are students from White Dragon University this strong?” Zhao Jingxue’s eyes were a bit dazed.
Zhao Qingli was very satisfied with her sister’s reaction.
“It’s not that students from White Dragon University are strong,” Zhao Qingli corrected, “It’s Jiang Ye who’s amazing.”
“I know Jiang Ye is impressive,” Zhao Jingxue gave her a glance, “But what does his impressiveness have to do with you?”
