The Ju and Chi Lineages Plot Together to Eliminate the Traitor

As night deepened, the entire Chi Lineage was shrouded in silence. A vast starry sky stretched across the heavens, and countless source stars cast their soft starlight, illuminating the entire ancestral land in a hazy and solemn light.

Inside the clan leader's main hall, layers of isolation arrays had already been fully activated. Around the hall, dozens of ancient Dao patterns intertwined, forming a sealed space that completely isolated it from outside exploration.

Inside the hall, Chi Ninghua stood quietly, while Chi Boqian, the head of the Chi Family Lineage, stood with his hands behind his back in the center of the hall. As Chi Ninghua gently raised her hands, the pale golden Soul Sound Talisman slowly reappeared.

A soft radiance spread from the Soul Talisman, and the next moment, the entire hall transformed into a huge image of the Ancient House of Heaven and Earth Hua Yin appeared, and the two sides talked. Hua Yin personally admitted to colluding with the Annihilation God Clan and secretly refining the Return to the Ruins Tribulation Descent Pill, intending to use the medicinal power to control the ultimate beast of the Chi Lineage and Ju Lineage families' protective source Source Dao Ultimate Beast Huang.

Then a great battle broke out, and all the scenes, sounds, and Fate Soul fluctuations that followed, including Hua Yin's serious injury and escape, were presented to Chi Boqian without any omission. As the last image slowly dissipated, the entire hall returned to silence. Chi Boqian remained silent for a long time, and his deep eyes slowly closed.

An unprecedented heaviness settled between his brows. After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes, his voice low and deep. "Ninghua." "The news Qin Yu brought back..." "It's too important." Chi Ninghua's expression was equally solemn. She nodded slightly. "This disciple thinks so too." Chi Boqian slowly looked into the distance, his voice growing even lower. "Five days later," "is the Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain Grand Competition." "If that old thief Hua Yin's scheme succeeds," "my Chi Lineage and the Ju Lineage... will likely face the danger of extinction."

As he spoke, his fists slowly clenched, and a chill suddenly rose in his eyes. Chi Ninghua nodded solemnly. "Yes." "Fortunately, Young Master Qin brought the news back to the clan in time." "Otherwise, the consequences..." "Unimaginable." Chi Boqian slowly raised his right hand, and a pale golden Dao seal slowly appeared between his eyebrows.

His entire being exuded a solemn and dignified aura as he spoke in a deep voice, "About Qin Yu." "My Chi Lineage will protect him with all our might." "Ninghua." "Qin Yu is currently our Chi Lineage's only external ally, before the competition begins." "His existence must be kept secret." Chi Ninghua's expression turned serious. "Disciple understands."

Chi Boqian continued, "Now, we don't even know if the traitor within the clan has received the Soul Sound Talisman secretly sent by Hua Yin. Therefore, Qin Yu's return to the Chi Lineage last night must not be revealed."

He slowly turned around and looked at Chi Ninghua. "Here's what you'll do: immediately and secretly summon all the clansmen who saw Qin Yu last night." He instructed them one by one, "No one, not a single word must be leaked. The matter of Qin Yu's return to the clan must be completely sealed off." Chi Ninghua salute. "Yes, sir."

Chi Boqian continued, "Furthermore, tomorrow night at midnight, still at this time, bring Qin Yu to see me. I will immediately notify Tongyue and Xiyue via telepathy. Tomorrow night, we will formally discuss the matter of finding the traitor." With that, Chi Boqian slowly put away the Soul Sound Talisman.

Her gaze was resolute. "As for this Soul Sound Talisman," she said, "I will personally take it to the Ju Lineage now." "Such a momentous matter," she said, "Must be reported to the Ju Lineage patriarch immediately." Chi Ninghua was solemn. "This disciple will go and gather everyone who saw Young Master Qin last night." Just as she was about to leave, Chi Boqian spoke again in a deep voice. "Remember," he said, "Ninghua," "be extremely cautious in all actions until the traitor is found."

Chi Ninghua in a fist salute. "Disciple will remember." After saying that, she turned and quickly left the main hall. The hall returned to silence, and Chi Boqian stood quietly for a moment. Then, he slowly raised his right hand, and with a hiss, a spatial rift slowly opened in the void in front of him. The other end of the rift was in the direction of the Ju Lineage. Chi Boqian did not stop at all.

As he stepped inside, the space slowly closed, and he completely disappeared. At the same time, inside the inner hall of Chi Ninghua's palace, Qin Yu sat cross-legged on a futon. The Wuji True Evolution Flow around him continuously gathered, slowly nourishing his Fate Soul. Deep within his sea of consciousness, the Ring Master Soul Diagram slowly rotated. Just then...

Qin Yu's divine sense stirred slightly, sending a divine thought across the endless void to a place tens of thousands of miles away, "Yuan Xuangu." A moment later, a steady divine thought slowly responded. "Master," Qin Yu asked slowly, "Regarding the reconstruction of the Annihilation God Clan..." "How is it progressing?" Yuan Xuangu respectfully replied.

"Everything is proceeding as Master instructed. The various branches have begun integration, and some ancient ruins have been reopened. However, some resources are still insufficient," Qin Yu said calmly. "If needed, you can go to the Heavenly Secrets Dao Pavilion. Everything necessary for this trip can be purchased in my name; there's no need to worry about resources." Yuan Xuangu's voice was respectful. "Understood. Thank you, Master."

The spiritual connection slowly severed. Just then, the palace doors gently opened, Chi Ninghua stepped in, seeing Qin Yu slowly open his eyes. She softly asked, "Young Master Qin." "What is it?" Qin Yu slowly stood up, a gentle smile appearing on his face. "Senior." "You're back." "Perfect timing." "I have something else I'd like to discuss with you."

Chi Ninghua slightly and gestured. "Young Master Qin, please sit down." The two sat down again. Qin Yu pondered for a moment and slowly said, "Senior, would you mind introducing me to the Chi Lineage's Source Dao Ultimate Beast Huang?" "Wanyan." "I have some questions. I'd like to ask it some questions in person! If it's inconvenient, then that's fine."

Upon hearing this, Chi Ninghua's expression slightly hardened. After a moment of contemplation, she nodded gently. "Alright." "However," she continued, "The clan leader has just instructed that tomorrow night, I will accompany you to see the clan leader to discuss the matter of finding the traitor within the clan." She looked at Qin Yu and continued, "As for meeting the Source Dao Ultimate Beast Huang Wanyan," she added, "Tomorrow night, I will personally request permission from the clan leader. With the clan leader's status, this matter should be able to be arranged."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yu slowly stood up, clasped his hands in a respectful bow, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Senior." Chi Ninghua smiled gently. "Young Master Qin, you needn't be so polite." "Now," "you and my Chi Lineage," "are already in the same boat." "Next," "everything will be arranged after the clan leader returns tomorrow night." As night deepened, the starlight outside the hall remained, and only five days remained until the start of the Eternal Nonexistence Limitless Domain Grand Competition.

Ju Lineage land, Ember Heaven Divine Hall

As night falls, the Milky Way stretches across the ancient sky, and one after another, floating divine mountains stand silently in the void. Vast streams of primordial spiritual energy surge forth from the depths of the mountains, all converging towards the magnificent palace rising from the ground in the very center of the ancestral land— the Ember Heaven Divine Hall, the central hub where the Ju Lineage Chief makes decisions on important matters concerning the entire clan.

At this moment, all the dozens of protective formations outside the hall were fully activated, with layers of pale gold Dao patterns interwoven to form an impenetrable barrier, blocking all external divine senses from spying on them, and preventing any secret conversations inside the hall from being leaked out.

A slight ripple spread through the void as Chi Boqian slowly stepped out from the torn spatial rift. A figure had been waiting quietly in the hall for some time. The man wore a long robe embroidered with crimson and gold patterns, his figure as upright as an ancient pine tree, his brows resolute, his eyes bright and clear, his gaze calm and deep, and a gentle smile often playing on his lips. His demeanor was refined and composed, without a trace of sharpness or ruthlessness, but rather an aura of righteousness, like a kind and benevolent elder who had read extensively in the ancient Daoist canon.

Beneath this peaceful facade lies a terrifying pressure powerful enough to suppress an entire star field. This Ju Jinyu, the current patriarch of the Ju Lineage and a powerful being at the Wuji Realm.

Upon seeing Chi Boqian appear, Ju Jinyu immediately stepped forward to greet him, his voice resounding throughout the hall. "Brother Chi, your visit so late at night must be urgent."

Chi Boqian's expression was solemn, devoid of any pleasantries. With a slight flick of his sleeve, the Soul Sound Talisman, engraved with the entire truth, floated between the two. "Old friend, observe this talisman first, and everything will become clear."

Ju Jinyu's gentle smile slowly faded as his consciousness sank into the Soul Talisman. Scene after scene unfolded: Hua Yin confessed to colluding with the Annihilation God Clan, refining the forbidden medicine Return to the Ruins Tribulation Descent Pill, secretly plotting against the Chi and Ju clans, coveting the Source Dao Ultimate Beast Huang, the Origin Dao, until the confrontation in the ancient house, the deadly battle in the ruins, and Hua Yin's serious injury and escape. Every scene, sound, and fluctuation of the soul was captured without missing a single detail.

After a long while, the spiritual light of the Soul Talisman slowly faded, and the entire Ember Heaven Divine Hall fell into deathly silence. Ju Jinyu stood there, his gentle expression vanished, and his eyes blazed with fury. The divine jade ground beneath his feet, which had remained intact for ten thousand years, silently cracked with fine, spiderweb-like patterns.

"What a brilliant Hua Yin!"

Ju Jinyu clenched his fists tightly, his anger almost turning into tangible flames. "Colluding with the Annihilation God Clan to refine the Tribulation Descent Poison Pill, they even dared to plot against the Boundless Abyss of my Ju Lineage's protective power, the Boundless Netherworld! Their wolfish ambitions are unforgivable!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he swept his wide sleeves, and a sudden gust of wind swept through the hall.

"I am truly grateful to Brother Chi for providing this irrefutable evidence. If this scoundrel were allowed to infiltrate the Domain Grand Competition with the Tribulation Descent Pill, our clan's Source Beast Huang Boundless Abyss suffer severe damage! This fiend must be completely annihilated, his soul Annihilation, leaving no future trouble!"

Chi Boqian slowly nodded, his heavy aura easing slightly. "Right now, the most important thing for our two families is to find the traitor hidden within our clans. Otherwise, when the competition begins in five days, there will surely be turmoil and endless troubles."

Ju Jinyu's expression was solemn, and he nodded solemnly. "That's absolutely right. This matter can only be handled privately by our two clans. Under no circumstances should it be allowed to reach the ears of the other two major Lineage in the Supreme Transformation Primordial Domain. Given their nature, they will only blame our two clans for their negligence, creating unnecessary trouble."

"That's exactly right." Chi Boqian slowly rose. "Old friend, I'll return to the Chi Lineage first. From now on, if there are any clues or information, we can communicate using Soul Sound Talisman."

Ju Jinyu responded loudly, "Alright, Brother Chi, take care on your journey." Chi Boqian clasped his hands in a salute, and another passage tore open in the void. He stepped into it and vanished without a trace in an instant.
