The grand doors of the tower slowly opened, and Zhou Yi's figure appeared silently outside the gates. He turned around, slightly bowing towards the interior, then waved his sleeve and walked towards the outskirts of the palace.

All the guards had received prior instructions to ignore Zhou Yi's departure. Even if they intended to stop him, they would be unable to do so.

After a while, Zhou Yi had already left the palace, and at that moment, it was Ting Minglie himself who appeared in the tower.

"Ancestor, is Master Zhou willing to become our Fire Crow Nation's Guardian Master?" Ting Minglie asked hopefully.

In front of Ting Shiguang, he had never displayed the air of a Fire Crow Nation's king. In fact, if it weren't for Ting Shiguang's permission in the past, he might not have become the king of Fire Crow Nation.

Ting Shiguang shook his head slightly and sighed, "We can't afford this person."

Ting Minglie's expression changed slightly as he said, "Ancestor, Master Zhou seems to have just stepped into the realm of Innate Masters. We have countless secret manuals and treasures collected by the Fire Crow Royal Family. If we allow him to select freely, perhaps we can recruit him?"

Ting Shiguang gave him a cold glance and said, "Minglie, I understand your hopes. But you must remember that this person's future achievements far surpass your imagination. And the ones who can cultivate someone like him are only those super sects that rarely appear in the world. Our small Fire Crow Nation's collection may not truly catch his eye." He paused for a moment and continued, "However, I have managed to establish a good relationship with him. When we meet in the future, it shouldn't be as enemies of Fire Crow Nation."

Ting Minglie finally gave up all hope. He let out a light sigh and remained speechless.

However, deep in Ting Shiguang's heart, he couldn't help but sigh. Although the refined magnetic steel was relatively rare, it wasn't considered a particularly precious item in the eyes of an Innate Master. It was just that, after learning about Zhou Yi's true age, he no longer had any hopes of inviting him to become the Guardian Master of Fire Crow Nation.

Therefore, he had spontaneously replaced the truly precious treasure he had originally planned to present with the refined magnetic steel. If this item could only exchange for the friendship of an Innate Master, it would be more than enough.

Zhou Yi left the palace and naturally returned to the Xie family.

At this moment, Mu Yuan and Luo Xin had already left the Xie residence, but they had both left behind some precious gifts to be delivered by the Xie family.

When Xie Mingjin presented all these gifts, even Zhou Yi couldn't help but feel a bit surprised. The items they presented, although not as extravagant as the refined magnetic steel, were still extremely rare treasures. Some of these things, Zhou Yi had never even heard of before.

He hesitated for a while and asked Xie Mingjin about the relationships between these several prestigious families.

In the end, he came to understand that although the four major families of Fire Crow Nation competed with each other, they were also interconnected through marriages. It could be said that "you have me, I have you," and it was simply a convoluted mess.

But this wasn't surprising at all. Just think about the current situation in Taicang County, and it would be clear.

Even if it was a prestigious family with a thousand years of heritage, not to mention those with only a hundred years, the connections they possessed were not to be underestimated.
