Xu Chunniang frowned slightly. She didn't have much contact with Zhou Yu, but she didn't have a good impression of him.
Chang Sheng kept getting close to her, and although no one knew what he was planning, it must have been under Zhou Yu's instruction.
Xu Chunniang took out the sea order and sent a message directly to Zhou Xing. However, after the message was sent, there was no response from the other side for a long time.
Was Zhou Xing busy and didn't see the message? Or was there something unexpected and he couldn't see it
Glancing at the other party's actions, a hint of anger flashed in Zhou Yu's eyes.
After all, she is the biological daughter of the head of the Zhou family. The other party's behavior is too disrespectful to her.
She hid the anger in her eyes and said, "What Zhou Xing can give you, I, Zhou Yu, can give you more. If you have nothing else to do, why don't you sit down and talk in detail?"
Hearing this, Xu Chunniang's eyes turned slightly cold.
It turned out that Zhou Yu saw her getting along with Zhou Xing as having some ulterior motive.
Zhou Yu would not be on good terms with her without a purpose. What exactly did she want to achieve by doing this
Xu Chunniang thought about it in her heart, but did not say anything, so she sat down.
"What can you give me?"
Seeing this, Zhou Yu's eyes were filled with a smile.
"Array secrets, cultivation elixirs, and even magical techniques. I have a very high authority in the Zhou family. As long as the Zhou family has it, I can find a way to get it."
Xu Chunniang's eyes flickered slightly, but she didn't refuse in a hurry and looked like she was thinking about it.
“How can I trust you?”
"I am the eldest daughter of the Zhou family, and I have the cultivation level of the late Jindan stage."
Zhou Yu smiled calmly, "Although my nephew Zhou Xing has some talent, he lacks experience and is not yet capable of taking charge on his own."
Xu Chunniang nodded in agreement, "Then what do you want from me?"
She thought that there was nothing worth caring about her, and the other party must have some ulterior motive for trying to win her over.
"I just saw that Fellow Daoist Xu is young and promising, so I wanted to make friends with you."
Zhou Yu smiled calmly, "Friend Xu, as a casual cultivator, it must have been difficult these years, right? Have you ever thought about joining a family?"
Xu Chunniang shook her head. "It is true that independent cultivators have a harder time, but it is not easy to integrate into a large family. Independent cultivators have their own freedoms."
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Xu misunderstood. I didn't mean to join a family as a guest official."
Zhou Yu poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and said meaningfully.
"If Fellow Daoist Xu's Taoist partner is from a noble family, then he won't have to bother integrating. He can enjoy a high degree of freedom while gaining more resources and connections."
Hearing this, Xu Chunniang finally understood what Zhou Yu was planning, and Chang Sheng's strange behavior now had an explanation.
She sat there in silence, not knowing what action had given Zhou Yu the wrong impression and made her come up with such an idea.
Zhou Yu thought she was interested, so he tried to persuade her gently.
"The forces in the ten continents of the sea are mostly from aristocratic families. The other scattered organizations of independent cultivators are not powerful enough.
It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to reach the Golden Core stage without the support of their family. Daoist Fellow Xu should have a deep understanding of this, right? "
What Zhou Yu said was the truth. The ten continents on the sea are vast, and most of the resources and spiritual veins are in the hands of the cultivation families. Only a small part falls into the hands of independent cultivators.
Especially advanced items like the Infant Transformation Pill, which are almost monopolized by various families.
Xu Chunniang nodded, "That's true, but the resources needed for cultivation are too huge. Even if we join a cultivation family, the resources provided are far from enough."
Zhou Yu frowned slightly. The other party's answer was not what she had imagined.
Perhaps the other party is just a casual cultivator and has no idea of the huge gap between casual cultivators and cultivators from aristocratic families.
“As a casual cultivator, Fellow Daoist Xu knows very little about the cultivators of our aristocratic families. Take the Zhou family as an example. The cultivators in the family enjoy the cultivation resources distributed by the family every month, and there are also clan elders with profound cultivation who discuss scriptures and Taoism with us.
In addition, the clan will occasionally give out some places. Either go to secret places to search for treasures, or go to spiritual places for retreat. When you break through the realm, the elders will escort you. "
Having said that, Zhou Yu paused slightly and promised him a huge profit.
"My Zhou family has a spiritual island. The spiritual energy on the island is much more abundant than the outside world. If you are interested in joining my Zhou family, I can fight for the opportunity for you to practice on the spiritual island."
Xu Chunniang seemed to be thinking about something. The Lingdao that Zhou Yu mentioned might be similar to the Hualong Pool of Xiaoyao Sect.
She showed an interested look in her eyes, "Going to Ling Island to practice, maybe I can break through to the late Jindan stage?"
When Zhou Yu heard this, she almost choked on the sip of tea she had just taken.
If she was not mistaken, the other party's cultivation was only the fourth level of the Golden Core, while the minimum requirement for the late Golden Core stage was the seventh level of the Golden Core.
This person's appetite is really big if he wants to break through to the late Jindan stage in one fell swoop!
If she could really use the resources of the Spirit Island at will, how could her son Changsheng's cultivation level remain at the early stage of the Golden Core
Zhou Yu put down the teacup and suppressed his unhappiness.
“Fellow Daoist Xu, you are joking. Although the spiritual energy on my Zhou family’s spiritual island is rich, when one’s cultivation reaches the Golden Core Realm, the amount of spiritual energy required for each level advancement is extremely huge.
To break through three realms in a short period of time is nothing short of a fantasy. If you are lucky, you will have no problem cultivating to the fifth level of the Golden Core."
Xu Chunniang shook her head in disappointment. "If it's limited to this, this Spirit Island sounds nothing special. Daoist Zhou, you should take me to the ancestral hall as soon as possible to reinforce the formation."
Zhou Yu still had a smile on his face, but in fact his teeth were almost broken.
In order to win over this woman, she did not hesitate to use the chess pieces that she had planted in Zhou Mansion for many years to make this happen.
Zhou Yu originally thought that after the negotiations, she would be able to leave the other party with the impression that she holds a high position of power in the Zhou family and can influence the opinion of the head of the Zhou family, thereby winning that person over in one fell swoop.
But in fact, the other party was almost unmoved, and I didn't know whether he was pretending to be stupid or was really stupid.
Zhou Yu took a deep breath, suppressed his unhappiness, stood up and walked towards the ancestral hall, while having another idea in mind.
When they arrived outside the ancestral hall, Zhou Yu handed out the ancestral hall formation diagram that he had prepared long ago.
"Friend Xu, this is the formation diagram. The ancestral hall is in front of us. I don't know how to use formations, so I can't help you. I'll leave the reinforcement of the formation to you."
Xu Chunniang nodded slightly, "I have to be loyal to the person who entrusted me with this."
After saying that, she took the formation diagram and stepped into the ancestral hall.
Watching the figure disappear, a ruthless look flashed in Zhou Yu's eyes. He moved slightly and walked in a certain direction. Soon he entered a hidden secret room.
A strange and excited laugh rang out in the secret room.
"Big sister, you are here."
Looking at the thin figure in front of him covered in a black cloak, a trace of disgust flashed across Zhou Yu's eyes, and then he returned to normal.
"Come and see you, Sixth Sister."
The figure in the cloak let out a deep laugh. "Big sister is a person who never gets up early unless there is something beneficial. It shouldn't be that you are here just to see me, right?"
