Zhou Yu was taken aback.

"What?"

The Red Hawk King also leaned over curiously.

The Cloud King said with a smile:

"Half a year ago, the Bai Family's power struggle caused quite a stir, and eventually, Old Master Bai Qishan was forced to leave Hu City. If I remember correctly, Old Master Bai is currently in Qin State."

Zhou Yu nodded and said:

"That's right."

"The reason things happened in the Bai Family back then was fundamentally because Old Master Bai obtained a Blood Jade that could open a secret land." The Cloud King looked deeply at Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu felt a stir in his heart.

He remembered.

Indeed, when he examined Bai Qishan's injuries, he discovered the Blood Jade in his Dantian.

Bai Qishan had explicitly told him that this Blood Jade was indeed related to a secret land.

With so many things happening in Hu City lately, he had almost forgotten about it.

Zhou Yu hesitated for a moment and said:

"Does this secret land have High Order martial skills?"

The Cloud King chuckled.

"You asked the right person."

"In the entire Hu City, no more than three people know about this secret land."

"I happen to be one of them."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu immediately became interested.

"Cloud King senior, please elaborate."

The Cloud King didn't beat around the bush.

He smiled and said:

"Actually, it's rumored that this is an ownerless secret land, some even say it's a Spiritual Land, but in fact, it's an ancient cultivator's cave."

The Cloud King's words were shocking.

Zhou Yu showed a look of astonishment.

"An ancient cultivator's... cave???"

The so-called ancient cultivators were said to possess abilities capable of moving mountains and filling seas, reaching the heavens and the earth.

To say they were immortals wouldn't be an exaggeration.

But does such a world really have immortals?

If it were before, Zhou Yu would have flatly disbelieved it, but now, knowing about the Heavenly Law Dao Beads, and especially with one inside him, Zhou Yu had to believe in the existence of immortals.

The Cloud King nodded.

"Correct, as far as I know, this ancient cultivator's cave not only contains a massive amount of spiritual energy but also the cultivation technique manuals of ancient cultivators, divine weapons and even, it's said, a legendary storage ring."

"A storage ring?"

The Red Hawk King's face was shocked.

"It's said that this item has its own space, moves at will, and can hold all things."

"Is there really such a thing in the world?"

The Cloud King nodded.

"Very likely."

Zhou Yu was also extremely shaken, even feeling a bit impatient.

But immediately, he forced himself to calm down.

"Not yet!"

"Why?" The Cloud King was puzzled.

Zhou Yu replied with a wry smile: "Due to some special mutation, the Blood Jade is now fused with Old Master Bai's Dantian. To extract the Blood Jade, we'd have to kill Old Master Bai..."

The Cloud King, upon hearing this, realized and said:

"No wonder those forces back then wanted to eliminate Old Master Bai at all costs; it's because of this reason."

"If that's the case, then it's troublesome. We must find a way to separate the Blood Jade from Old Master Bai's body."

Zhou Yu nodded.

"Indeed."

"I'll think about it and see if there's a way."

"Very well." The Cloud King nodded.

The three of them talked as they walked, soon arriving at the Zhu Family.

The Red Hawk King evidently already knew what Zhou Yu had done at the Han Family. Facing Zhou Yu's approach, he straightforwardly said:

"Our Zhu Family is willing to pay for peace."

After all, compared to the Han Family, his Zhu Family hadn't lost a King Realm expert.

Thus, in the Red Hawk King's heart, there was more schadenfreude toward the Han Family. Even if it cost money, he was happy to do it.

Moreover, the Red Hawk King knew that behind Zhou Yu were two Martial Kings. His Zhu Family might not be able to kill Zhou Yu now.

Conversely, Zhou Yu was also not confident in wiping out the Zhu Family.

Therefore, their conversation was quite pleasant.

In the end, Zhu Tanggong compensated with 2 billion.

Zhou Yu left with the money.

After Zhou Yu left, the Zhu Family's top brass sat in the conference room, each with a grim expression.

"This Zhou Yu kid has become a force. From now on, it will probably be even harder to deal with him."

Zhu Tanggong nodded.

"No doubt."

"Two months ago when this kid first arrived, no one took him seriously. Who would have thought that his strength would increase so quickly?"

"Uncle, I think since we can't deal with Zhou Yu, we should reconcile with him." A younger member of the Zhu Family suggested.

"I agree with that."

Many in the Zhu Family showed their approval.

In such large families, interests usually come first, and now it seems that continuing to oppose Zhou Yu might lead to even more losses in the future. The Han Family is a living example.

Zhu Tanggong said with a grim face:

"I also want to reconcile."

"But... I don't know why, but the Old Master insists on dealing with Zhou Yu. As long as he doesn't relent, my hands are tied."

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

After all, the Old Master is the backbone of the Zhu Family; everything depends on his decision.

After a long silence, Zhu Tanggong sighed and said:

"Let's leave it at that for now; we'll take it one step at a time."

"Meeting adjourned."

On the other side.

After leaving the Zhu Family, Zhou Yu's eyes flashed coldly as he said:

"Next stop, the Ao Family!"
