Locke and others looked at Jingyu in surprise, not understanding what stupid things she was saying.
This kind of statement is so ridiculous that it is no less ridiculous than "At a black funeral, everyone was in silence, the priest was reading the eulogy, and suddenly a man ran in and started pole dancing and performing circus acrobatics"!
"Are you crazy, Jingyu! Do you want to make Ms. Losta feel disgusted with us? How can you make such a joke! Even if you are reporting good news and not bad news, you should have some sense of propriety!"
"I'm not kidding. Go and get the news yourself. Lord Chu Yan successfully sent a new beacon to Ms. Weilin to help the fleet return!"
After Jingyu finished scolding, Secretary Eve apparently received other intelligence and hurriedly prepared to leave.
[Scholars from Noah College, I'm sorry, I just received a message saying that Ms. Weilin has sent a message. I have to accompany Lady Losta to confirm the truth, so I have to leave for a while! ]
The projection meeting ended and Secretary Eve's capable figure disappeared.
In the magic workshop of the academy, it was so quiet that only the fluctuations of the magic circuits could be heard.
Ms. Weilin...sent a contact?
Locke and the others are already doubting their lives, and all they have learned throughout their lives has suffered a huge impact!
They pondered over what Jingyu had just said and said in disbelief:
"Jingyu, what did you just say? How did the long-distance fleet reconfirm the beacon's location?"
Jing Yu shrugged and said, "Just follow the idea I mentioned to Lord Chu Yan at that time and release a magic with a strong enough aura and penetrating power."
This is not a qualified answer at all!
It's like if someone asks you how to become a millionaire in one day, you say to price yourself at a million, and then you can achieve your goal by waiting for someone else to do it in "one day".
"So such powerful magic, with an aura strength comparable to that of a beacon tower, is this possible?"
Jingyu did not reveal too much about Chu Yan. She simply said:
"I don't know about that. I only provided the idea, and then the lord of the exile land realized it himself. Ms. Weilin's smooth return is the best proof!
As the saying goes, great strength brings about miracles, perhaps this is what Lord Chu Yan is like."
The masters of the magic architecture school were curious, and the scholar aunt was equally curious.
When Chu Yan asked Evelyn to release her innate magic, he could feel that there were many unclear points.
What makes Jingyu even more curious right now is the situation in Longyan City. I heard that Chu Yan and Weilin met as mother and son there, and the battle of reckoning involved there will probably be even more exciting.

It's a pity that she didn't have the chance to witness it with her own eyes. She could only wait for some time for the information to spread before she could find out something.
*
Crystal Forest.
This is a general term for a wide area where many races live and multiply. The time it takes to walk the entire Crystal Forest from the southernmost to the northernmost part is measured in "several years".
The meeting regarding the Tower of Babel was held in the core area of the Crystal Forest, Sky Tree City.
This is a city built entirely on a giant tree. Due to the huge number of races and population, its prosperity far exceeds that of several core cities in the Dragonborn territory.
However, this time, even though 70% to 80% of the people were present, the meeting was still unable to start.
Because some troublesome things have occurred within each major force - internal power struggles.
I originally thought that this was a stupid thing that only happened in my family, but when the participants saw it, they realized that you all share the same problem!
Among them, the Long Yan family is probably the one with the most serious situation.
Other forces could at least comfort themselves by saying that this was a matter of survival of the fittest, but the Long Yan family had indeed suffered substantial losses.
Weilin had reached an extremely high level at a young age, and her future achievements were expected to be even higher. However, some of the people in her tribe who enjoyed their rights without doing anything else "exiled" her to the Sea of Void by blowing up the port.
It can only make people sigh.
Because Longyan City could suppress the news, and the distance meant that news spread more slowly, Chief Phoenix arrived in Sky Tree City a few days later and found out that someone was demolishing her house not long after she left!
Phoenix felt that those guys in the family had been able to reach this point because of her patience. She was also the one who harmed Weilin in disguise. She was the backbone of the family's future...
Should she give up all her fantasies and expectations and completely overturn this mess with her own hands?
Meetings regarding the Tower of Babel are held every day, but the progress of each day's discussions is very limited.
Today, the meeting is still going on, but something happened.
With Losta's help, a woman appeared in the meeting with the help of projection magic.
When they saw the beautiful woman in the projection, everyone in the room was shocked.
Weilin nodded gracefully and said:
[Sorry, I just finished my long voyage, and I should have gone to the meeting in person. I'm sorry that I can only show up in this way at the moment.]
Phoenix was surprised and delighted, and asked:
"Weilin, are you really back safely? The news said..."
[That was true originally, but my kid was attentive for once and helped me find the way back. We’ll talk about this later...
Some family matters have embarrassed you all. Chief of the Phoenix tribe, Elder Baidan, has been killed by Chu Yan. I apologize for his young age and ignorance.
Also, I want to execute Elder Huniwan, and I can explain the reasons! 】
On Weilin's side, Elder Huniwan's terrified voice rang out:
[Clan leader, I am already S-rank. I was confused this time. The future of the Longyan family requires you to consider it more carefully and calmly! I will reflect on my mistakes this time! ]
Death is the most frightening thing, especially since Hu Niwan barely broke through to S-level a few years ago and didn't have time to do anything.
Status, fame, praise, admiration, I haven't had the chance to enjoy these yet!
Chief Phoenix shook his head, and made a decisive move without any hesitation:
“You are an elder, and you are already old. Self-reflection is a privilege only for children… You are a member of the Longyan family. In fact, I would rather see that you, Hu Niwan, have the courage to accept failure and face death.
Weilin, please do as you wish."
Chapter 89 Weilin, the mother with the most bottom line
In previous years, only during festivals could one see members of the Long Yan family gathered together like this.
But this time, it was in front of the execution platform.
The number of people executed this time was quite large. The core masterminds were two old men in the Council of Elders, and many of the remaining accomplices were not able to escape punishment.
The dragonborn's rare status as a species does not continue to support their extra-legal privileges.
Those waiting to be executed lined up from the execution platform to the edge of the square.
The sobbing and wailing never stopped.
For those outsiders who were active in the Dragonborn territory, it was the first time that they saw these Dragonborn lords and ladies in such a miserable state.
Chu Yan held a portable projection magic stone and live-broadcasted the execution scene for Chief Phoenix - this was her own request.
【Child, what are you thinking about? 】
The childish voice of the clan leader came from the magic stone. I didn't quite understand why she liked to act childish.
"I thought impatiently in my heart, when will you have seen enough, Chief? I will go back to talk to Weilin. Chief, you know I love to tell the truth."
Chief Phoenix was not angry, and even found his frankness interesting and praised him:
[I never thought that the lazy kid who used to be the most insignificant one would be able to handle things in such a critical moment! Everything you have done since the start of the family trial has amazed even me.
There are many things that cannot be accomplished by strength alone, just like this family...】
"I was actually surprised by one thing. I thought Chief Phoenix would deal with the accomplices at his discretion."
At that "dinner table meeting", the two elders mentioned their ambitious plans.
154
It was revealed that among the accomplices in the murder of Weilin, some were responsible for hiring the transport ship, while others were responsible for blowing it up.
The masterminds are all dead, and the remaining accomplices, the dragonborn, being treated as breeding dragons and placed in the Holy Breeding Hall for an "assembly line"-style human creation project, may be a good way to atone for their sins.
But unexpectedly, Chief Phoenix did not show any leniency and treated these accomplices fairly, justly and openly - executing them.
This time, it should be the great decline of the Longyan family, as if skipping the afternoon when the residual warmth was still there, and in the blink of an eye it was already evening, with only a little setting sun left.
【...】
Chief Phoenix did not comment on this, but just smiled self-deprecatingly and sighed.
[Child, if I were to record the years of the Longyan family that I witnessed in the form of a memoir, how would I start? ]
Reminiscing about the past, this is the classic mood of the elderly. No matter how pinky you pretend to be, you can tell you are an old guy as soon as you open your mouth!
“Years later, facing the firing squad, Chief Phoenix would think back to that distant afternoon when her mother taught her the magic of fire.
Witness the magic dragon fire in your hand, from its initial burning to its extinction.
I understand that all the splendor in life will eventually be repaid with loneliness. "
Chu Yan copied the opening chapter of his previous masterpiece "One Hundred Years of Solitude" and made some simple modifications.
He didn't understand what was so great about the original work, but the family history in the book was somewhat similar to that of the Long Yan family. He just had to believe in the power of classics!
Otherwise, if Chu Yan really wanted to express himself and write an article similar to an autobiography, it would only produce hundreds of pages of toilet paper.
Chief Phoenix hadn't responded yet, but Aunt Weilin and Aunt Nancy, who were accompanying her, looked surprised.
Even though Weilin was the victim, when she saw her tribesmen walking up to the execution platform, she did not feel a strong sense of relief, but rather an indescribable sadness.
Chu Yan's casual remark hit the mark of her thoughts and expressed the emotions that she couldn't express.
She rubbed her son's head wordlessly.
Chief Phoenix just tasted it and kept praising it:
[I have a taste and feeling. It turns out that during those days when you were lazy and slept, you were secretly studying literature? 】
Aunt Nancy was very disrespectful and directly refuted his plan, saying:
"Chu Yan simply likes to be lazy and sleep, but he has never read any poetry anthology."
Chu Yan was well versed in the techniques of arguing with his aunt. At such times, he only had to lead the argument to Weilin and Weilin would speak for him.
"Ahem, auntie...I don't sleep just for the sake of sleeping, but because I miss the feeling of sleeping."
"What does it feel like? Can you tell me in detail?"
Nancy knew that the boy was just being stubborn and trying to save face, but she also wanted to see what he could come up with.
Chu Yan's expression suddenly became serious and he said:
“Our ancestors said that even if the dragon race can roam the continent and look down on all races after they grow up, they will always remember the time when they first spread their wings in their mother’s arms and will be unable to fly away from their desire for maternal love.
So, I didn’t sleep to be lazy, but to miss the feeling of sleeping in Weilin’s arms. ”
I don’t know whether my ancestor said this or not, but from today on, I will say it for him!
Phoenix felt that these words coming from Chu Yan were indeed very reasonable, and she said:
[Child, this is the motivation behind you racking your brains these days to bring Weilin back, right? ]
Nancy was familiar with his trick of asking for help, and said unhappily:
"If you can't explain it, you're just going to force Weilin out, right?"
Weilin was quite happy. The haze in her heart was temporarily dispelled. She retorted to her sister:
"Nancy, this is not forced at all, I think this is Chu Yan's true feelings!"
Among the crowd standing not far away were Evelyn and Tiffany.
This execution situation was rather special, and it was not convenient to stand together with the people from the Long Yan family, so they stood a few steps away.
From this distance, I can clearly hear Chu Yan's words.
There was a layer of gloom hanging over Tiffany's pretty smile, and her pink fists were clenched until they turned white.
Chu Yan’s words were very good, but they should be said to her, not Weilin!
Evelyn did not feel any dissatisfaction, but instead felt a little bit...uncontrollably excited.
The child who loves and cares so much about Weilin will give similar strong emotions to her, Afaline, in the future!
