the Jin Imperial City In the spacious hall of the Zhou family, it was crowded with all kinds of people at this time.
Although their expressions were all different, they all shared the same doubt towards the two children, Zhou Mo and Zhu Yun, in front of them.
How did these two young children manage to travel thousands of miles and reach the imperial city from the border?
Especially the little girl, she appears unusually calm and composed, even now in the Zhou family's territory, she shows no signs of panic.
Recalling the mysterious formation she had previously formed in her hand, these people who had lived in the imperial city for many years had never seen such a strong formation, even among the many immortal sects that had come to recruit disciples in the past.
"May I have a look at the token in your hand, young friend?" Elder Zhou extended his hand, with a hint of anticipation on his face, wanting to carefully examine the Elder Token in Zhou Mo's hand.
Upon seeing the actions of the Four Elders, Zhou Mo did not hesitate at all, and obediently handed over the token in his hand.
After receiving the token, the Four Elders carefully examined it.
The token was completely black, with mysterious patterns and designs carved on it, emitting an ancient and solemn aura.
Four Elders muttered to himself, "This is indeed the Zhou family's Elder Token."
"Elder, this is a token bestowed upon me and my grandfather by a Zhou family elder we encountered in our hometown. His name is Zhou Yuan, the father of Zhou Jingyan," Zhou Mo explained as Four Elders continued to stare at the token.
"When we met him, he was already seriously injured and bedridden. This token was given to us by him before he passed away, entrusting my grandfather and me to bring his remains back to the imperial city as a token of his request."
Upon hearing this, the expression of Four Elders became somewhat serious. He knew Zhou Yuan and was aware of his high status in the Zhou family. Now that Zhou Yuan had died outside and even entrusted the Elder Token to an outsider, there must be some hidden story behind it.
Four Elders looked at Zhou Mo and asked, "Young friend, do you know why Zhou Yuan was seriously injured? And how did he die?"
Zhou Mo shook his head and said, "When we saw Elder Zhou Yuan, he was already unconscious, so we are not clear about the cause of his injury. As for the cause of his death... when we found him, he was already seriously injured and could only lie in bed."
Four Elders frowned, pondered for a moment, and then said, "It seems that this matter is quite suspicious. How about this, young friend, could you stay at the Zhou family for a while longer, wait for the head of the family to return, and inform him of this matter before making a decision?"
Zhou Mo nodded in agreement.
While Zhou Jingyan next to him, upon seeing the token in the hands of the Four Elders of the Zhou family, his steps became slow and heavy, as if each step carried endless sadness and memories.
His gaze was tightly locked onto that token, with a hint of indescribable sorrow in his eyes. As he approached, he slowly reached out and carefully unhooked the jade pendant hanging from his waist.
The jade pendant on him shimmered with a faint light, as if it were a symbol of his last glimmer of hope. When he gently touched the token with the jade pendant, time seemed to stand still.
There is a subtle resonance between the token and the jade pendant, as if they were originally meant to be one entity.
This resonance is not just a physical connection, but rather stems from a deep bond in the bloodline.
Only the direct descendants of the Zhou family are qualified to wear these items. When the closest blood relatives touch the token and jade pendant together, it will trigger a bloodline bond.
Sure enough, at the moment when the jade pendant and token make contact, a dazzling golden light bursts forth from between the two.
The golden light soared rapidly into the sky, forming a grand and solemn totem - the Wolf Moon Totem!
This Wolf Moon Totem exudes unique majesty and power, its radiance illuminating the entire space, leaving people in awe.
Zhou Jingyan widened his eyes, looking at the totem floating in the air, feeling a strong sense of belonging and mission surging in his heart. This totem is the symbol of the Zhou family, representing the glory and heritage of their lineage.
There is no doubt that everything happening before his eyes proves that this token is indeed the Elder Zhou Yuan's token.
"Father, it's really you!"
His own speculation in his heart was finally confirmed. Zhou Jingyan's eyes immediately turned red, tears overflowed, and he knelt down, tightly holding the jade pendant and token in his hand, unable to speak.
"Ah!" The onlookers beside them also sighed with emotion.
When Zhou Yuan's soul lamp went out, they only knew that he had fallen near the border. But many years had passed, and they had never found his remains. They never expected that it would be two children who would send his soul back to his hometown.
"At the time of Zhou Yuan's passing, I received his final message. He said that there would be a grandfather and grandson holding his Elder Token, carrying his remains back to the imperial city. I suppose it must be you."
As everyone was immersed in their emotions about Zhou Yuan and his son, the Four Elders of the Zhou family suddenly stroked their beards and looked sharply at Zhou Mo, slowly speaking.
Although his tone sounded very calm, there was a subtle depth of meaning flickering in his eyes. From the subtle emotions revealed in his eyes, it can be inferred that he is actually very curious about the true identity of the person standing behind Zhou Mo, the Zhu Yun.
Zhou Mo keenly sensed the malice in the old man's eyes and secretly transmitted a message to the Zhu Yun: "Master, I am unaware of the message Zhou Yuan passed to the Zhou family before his death. How should we handle this next? Do we need to change our subsequent statements?"
Actually, long before Zhou Mo and Zhu Yun entered the imperial city, Zhu Yun had already discussed with Zhou Mo what they would say later. Their purpose in coming to the imperial city this time was very simple, just to help Zhou Mo and his grandson recognize their ancestry and complete the worship ceremony in the Zhou family ancestral hall.
The telepathy skill they used was also taught to Zhou Mo by Zhu Yun, mainly to deal with various unexpected situations that might arise.
Zhu Yun Echo: "Enough, you don't need to say more. Let me handle this."
The old man's expression became even more solemn and dignified, and his gaze was firmly fixed on Zhou Mo and Zhu Yun.
Zhu Yun Upon seeing the situation, I made a prompt decision and spoke without hesitation: "This person here is one of the two individuals escorting Zhou Yuan's remains back to the imperial city. As for myself, old man, there's no need for you to stare at me like that."
Upon hearing this, Four Elders, who had been stroking his beard, paused slightly.
The words of Zhu Yun paused slightly with the subtle movement of Four Elders, then she turned her gaze to the people present and continued, "As for my master, I believe you all have heard of him. Yes, he is the extraordinary master who caused the heavenly torpedo outside the imperial city yesterday!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the people in the entire hall were instantly shocked. They looked at each other and began to whisper in hushed voices.
"Really? Yesterday's master was the master of this little girl."
"It's hard to say for sure. After all, we saw her protective formation outside the imperial city, which was quite profound. Maybe she is indeed the disciple of that master."
"But why doesn't the Peerless master appear in person? Why send his disciple and even bring our Zhou family along?"
"Yeah, why with our Zhou family? Could it be that this kid offended that master? Look, his grandfather isn't here, has he already been captured by that master?"
At one point, the hall was filled with voices, soft and continuous like clouds, as if the entire space was filled with noisy sounds, but few dared to speak loudly in front of the Zhu Yun.
After all, with their identities, they couldn't be sure if they were real or fake.
