Chapter 228

Yang... Brother Yang?

The person clad in divine armor likewise froze, gazing at Yang Zhu in astonishment; the divine armor faded away, revealing a familiar figure.

He appeared to be a young man in his early twenties, refined and gentle-smiling, very handsome.

Jiang Yi Fei's eyes were like water, occasionally flashing with starlight, giving him an otherworldly aura.

Immediately, his expression turned grave and solemn as he said, "Brother Yang, the Northern Dipper needs you."

The Northern Dipper is said to be in turmoil; the Ancient Clan has emerged, its strength gradually sweeping across the Eastern Wasteland, taking over much of humanity's territory.

Later, the emergence of the Heavenly Prince, Gu Yuan, Huang Xu Dao, and Huo Lin Zi further dominated the age, each a monstrous figure.

Among the younger generation of heavenly talents, only the Central Emperor, Southern Demon, Hua Yunfei, Yaoguang, and the like might still have the strength to contend.

Yang Zhu dominated the age, looking down on all heavenly talents and divine bodies; his might was unrivaled, his spirit penetrating ancient and modern times—no one could match him, not even the Northern Emperor, who fell by his hand.

Jiang Yi Fei firmly believed he could certainly turn the tide.

I know, Yue'er told me.

Yang Zhu nodded, gazing toward the Northern Dipper, his eyes shimmering with starlight as if a world were evolving, unsure what he was pondering.

Jiang Yi Fei?

The Holy Maiden of Yaochi and others followed close behind; seeing the Jiang family's divine body actually appear in Zi Wei, they all looked astonished.

The unscrupulous Daoist, portly and wearing an ornate Daoist robe, greeted politely: "Haha, fellow Daoist, long time no see; your demeanor is ever more steady—truly worthy of being the Jiang family's heir."

Jiang Yi Fei is easygoing and courteous to everyone; among the many heavenly talents of the Northern Dipper, few have not clashed with Duan De.

Immortal Maiden of Yaochi, Daoist priest, Black Emperor.

Jiang Yi Fei, clad in white robes whiter than snow, refined and easygoing, nodded and greeted each one.

The Northern Dipper truly needs you, this holy body and Dao embryo, to return.

After a moment, Jiang Yi Fei spoke again, his tone and gaze earnest.

Brother Jiang, the Eastern Wasteland has several major holy lands and ancient aristocratic families; their foundations are deep, so they won't face major problems for now.

Yang Zhu continued to explain thus: the Eastern Wasteland has countless great sects, and there are eternal inheritances wielding imperial weapons; it's not so easy for them to emerge.

In other words, each holy land and clan mostly chooses silence—not because the Ancient Clan's emergence hasn't truly threatened their fundamental interests?

If the Ancient Clan truly came to their door, each sealed-away sage would naturally emerge, revealing their full foundations.

Especially those inheritances possessing extreme Dao imperial weapons—how could destroying them be easy?

I understand.

After hearing Yang Zhu's words, Jiang Yi Fei suddenly realized and nodded heavily.

He was raised as the Jiang family's heir and, to some extent, also knows of the existence of their foundations.

But what exactly it is, probably only the family head and some senior elders know.

How did you come to this place?

Yang Zhu asked, being able to meet Jiang Yi Fei here was indeed beyond his expectations.

The Jiang family, three years ago, while browsing ancient texts, happened upon...

Jiang Yi Fei explained the whole story; initially, they researched from some ancient texts and learned that there was a divine furnace closely related to the Great Emperor Hengyu.

The Jiang family speculated that the divine furnace should be located on a star named Zi Wei in an ancient star region; Jiang Yi Fei volunteered and resolutely embarked on the journey.

Thereafter, he followed clues and the guidance of an imitation of the Hengyu Furnace to locate this place.

The thing is just like this.

After saying that, Jiang Yi Fei looked slightly embarrassed, because over the past half year he had come to know what the Goddess Furnace was. "Senior brother..."

Li Tian and Yan Yi Xi, the two senior brothers, looked at each other in surprise, never expecting that their family's heirloom holy weapon might be related to a great emperor.

They weren't stupid; they could see that Jiang Yi Fei didn't know Yang Zhu's status as an imperial son, so they tactfully refrained from mentioning it, merely listening quietly from the side.

Actually, the Goddess Furnace was personally forged by the Great Emperor Hengyu, and it is very likely a weapon from before he attained the Dao.

According to Yang Zhu's knowledge, the Goddess Furnace should be a weapon from before the Great Emperor Hengyu attained the Dao; he simply lacked full confidence and wanted to confirm it.

So, Brother Yang, you know this quite clearly.

Jiang Yi Fei gave an embarrassed smile, feeling his cheeks warm.

It's clear that the Great Emperor Hengyu was somewhat unrestrained in his youth; of course, compared to his great merit in protecting humanity, this is nothing.

Yang Zhu patted the other's shoulder and smiled lightly.

Brother Yang, please don't tease me...

Upon hearing that, Jiang Yi Fei's face grew even more embarrassed, wishing he could flee in disgrace.

Who would have thought that the mighty Jiang family emperor actually had such an experience.

Indeed, quite wild!

Beside them, the unscrupulous Daoist stroked his chin, put on a serious appearance, and nodded earnestly.

Actually, we came here also for this matter; these two are Li Tian and Yan Yi Xi, the last followers of the Human Desire Sect.

I am Yan Yi Xi; it's my fortune to meet you, Brother Jiang.

Yan Yi Xi bowed with a folded fan; he greatly admired Jiang Yi Fei's demeanor and appearance and wished to befriend him.

So you are the renowned Yan Yi Xi.

Jiang Yi Fei naturally heard that the Goddess Furnace was in the hands of Yan Yi Xi and his senior brother; he wanted to find it, but Zi Wei is so vast, like searching for a needle in the sea.

Is the Goddess Furnace in your hands? May I borrow a look?

Since you are an old friend of Brother Yang, there's no problem; the divine furnace is now with Brother Yang.

As the words fell, Yang Zhu took out the Goddess Furnace and handed it to Jiang Yi Fei.

The thing is just like this.

After saying that, Jiang Yi Fei looked slightly embarrassed, because over the past half year he had come to know what the Goddess Furnace was. "Senior brother..."

The others, curious, also leaned forward slightly to watch.

Jiang Yi Fei took out an imitation of the Hengyu Furnace, placed it together with the Shen Nü Furnace, and carefully studied their differences and similarities.

In appearance, although there is a considerable difference, both are crystal clear and translucent, like a dazzling gem that blinds anyone who looks at it.

Moreover, the imprints and Dao markings left on them are extremely similar, clearly made by the same person.

"Indeed, it shares many similarities with the Hengyu Furnace!"

After a moment, Jiang Yi Fei reached this conclusion; it seems the trip was not in vain, and he finally obtained some results.

"Brother Yang, since you already have the Shen Nü Furnace, why did you come here?"

What puzzled Jiang Yi Fei was that Yang Zhu understood all of this very clearly, so why did he still come here?

"I want to go to the place where this furnace was forged to take a look; perhaps I can gain some insight."

Yang Zhu spoke frankly, the Shen Nü furnace is a divine weapon passed down through the ages; even after tens of thousands of years, it remains intact and its power undiminished.

Moreover, it was forged by the Hengyu Emperor himself, making it well worth a visit.

"I see, I had the same idea; why don't we travel together?"

Being able to travel with Yang Zhu, Jiang Yi Fei naturally felt pleased.
