Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch's Marriage

Chapter 183: Chapter 145: The Great Battle Concludes, Elder Han Takes Action_2

Translator: 549690339

Prince Wu’an was already severely injured, but after taking a punch from Long Yue, a large hole appeared in his body, and all his internal organs were gone; he fell directly into a dying state.

Long Yue took everything in with cold eyes, merely sneering without commenting, and continued to step forward.

The Sect Hierarch of the Yinyang Sect, Kurong Kong, the female Demon King, and others of the True Martial Realm watched her warily, not daring to make another move. Being overwhelmed by nine True Martial Realm could only mean death for the five of them if they acted.

As she passed by Prince Wu’an, Long Yue did not strike either; she knew that Prince Wu’an’s fate was sealed. Even if the cloaked elder and the True Martial Realm ancestors from Da Jing spared him, he would not be able to leave the Secret Territory alive.

After a few more steps, Long Yue made a hand gesture, causing the entrance to the Secret Territory to appear again, and she disappeared with a flash.

The Sect Hierarch of the Yinyang Sect, Kurong Kong, the female Demon King, and the others were about to follow her out, but just as they arrived at the entrance to the Secret Territory, a tremendous roaring sound could be heard. There were powerful beings fighting outside, and the aftershocks had reached inside the Secret Territory.

They saw four people fighting outside, where three powerhouses were besieging Long Yue. Their strength was immense, at least at the mid-stage of the True Martial Realm.

Their faces grew even uglier, as it became clear that those three outside were waiting to ambush anyone who obtained the Dragon Ball and emerged first.

If any of them were to be ambushed by three mid-stage True Martial Realm attackers upon exiting, they would be killed on the spot; only someone as strong as Emperor Wu, like the Dragon Maiden, could hold them off.

The five immediately halted, not daring to exit at once. The attacks from the three mid-stage True Martial Realm were targeting the entrance to the Secret Territory, intending to kill the Dragon Maiden. If they went out, they would bear the brunt of the attack, resulting in death or at least severe injury.

The five True Martial Realm figures, although helpless, could only watch helplessly as the entrance to the Secret Territory disappeared. Fortunately, the Secret Territory would not last much longer and would open automatically in at most two years, so they could leave then.

On the other side, as soon as Long Yue had left the Secret Territory, the five True Martial Realm Emperors also left the battlefield, prompting the cloaked elder and the True Martial Realm ancestor from Da Jing to take action.

Whoosh whoosh~

Two figures appeared not far from Prince Wu’an, both looking at him with cold eyes.

“Cough cough~”

Prince Wu’an coughed up blood, wiped it away, and struggled to stand, looking up at the two True Martial Realm Emperors in midair to his left and right, and let out a bitter laugh.

“If I’m not mistaken, the one on the left is Jiang Zhengyang, the former emperor of the Da Jing Dynasty; and the one on the right, although I don’t recognize your martial skills, you must be from the Mysterious Forces behind the White Lotus Cult.”

Chu Wuji was dead, but Prince Wu’an was not very saddened; his eyes showed more of his fury than grief, having guessed the identities of the two men.

Jiang Zhengyang remained expressionless. Although he had concealed his identity, his martial skills and Magical Treasures could not be hidden. It was normal to be recognized.

The cloaked elder sneered. So what if they were recognized? Chu Wuji was dead, and Prince Wu’an would die too. With both True Martial Realm figures dead, the Daqian Dynasty could only be butchered by them.

Moreover, they had been inside for so long, and the situation outside had long changed. By the time they emerged, they would be able to settle the power struggle.

The two did not intend to speak further with Prince Wu’an and moved to attack, assaulting him with killing intent.

“I’ll remember you.”

Prince Wu’an let out a thunderous shout and self-detonated.

Jiang Zhengyang and the cloaked elder wiped away the remnants of Prince Wu’an’s self-explosion, their brows knitted tightly, exchanging a glance, both feeling puzzled.

With Prince Wu’an dead, what was the use of remembering them?

Could it be that Prince Wu’an was not yet dead?

That seemed impossible. Prince Wu’an had just died before their eyes, not even a trace left behind.

The cloaked elder put aside his doubts, looking at Jiang Zhengyang and greeted, “Fellow Daoist Jiang.”

“How may I address this Fellow Daoist?” Jiang Zhengyang inquired.

The downfall of the Qian Dynasty was already inevitable, and he wanted to gather information about this Mysterious Forces, as Da Jing and the Mysterious Forces were about to become competitors.

It was a race to see who could swallow more of the Qian Dynasty’s territory.

The cloaked elder smiled but did not respond. Instead, he turned to look at the five True Martial Realm Emperors standing firm at the entrance to the Secret Territory and said abruptly, “It seems we’ll have to stay in the Secret Territory for a while.”

Jiang Zhengyang’s brows furrowed slightly as he looked over and noticed that the entrance to the Secret Territory had disappeared, with the Sect Hierarch of the Yinyang Sect, the female Demon King, and the others still inside.

A moment ago, they had also faintly heard noises from the outside world, but killing Prince Wu’an had been more important, and they had not paid it any mind.

Whoosh whoosh~

Before Jiang Zhengyang could speak, Kurong Kong, the female Demon King, and the other five True Martial Realm figures approached, eyeing the two men with hostility. Tuoshan Kong spoke with a cold voice:

“Two fellow Daoists, please give us an explanation.”

The mission entrusted by the Bodhisattva had failed, and Tuoshan Kong was in a very foul mood. If the two men did not have a reasonable explanation, he would not mind making a move against them. Now that the dragon maiden had left, nothing could threaten those in the True Martial Realm anymore.

No matter how strong those two were, they would not be able to withstand the joint assault of the five True Martial Realm warriors.

“I came here solely to eradicate Chu Wuji and Chu Hao,” Jiang Zhengyang said indifferently, his tone firm. He too had little regard for the Buddhist monks.

The elder in hemp-robed sneered and said, “The same goes for me.”

Tuoshan Kong’s face showed anger, but in the end, he did not make a move. Their explanations were passable, after all.

Their goal was not to fight for the Dragon Ball. It was normal for them to look for an opportunity to assassinate Chu Hao and Chu Wuji, but their actions were disgusting and disrupted their plans.

The Yinyang Sect Hierarch, the female Demon King, and Emperor Wu clad in black watched Jiang Zhengyang and the elder coldly but said nothing and showed no intention to act.

Even if the two had not attacked Chu Hao and Chu Wuji, they would not have had a chance to snatch the Dragon Ball. On the contrary, the two had given them an opportunity to cease fire. Otherwise, if they had continued fighting, the dragon maiden might have killed them all off.

Yet, they felt no gratitude in their hearts; the conduct of the two was too despicable. What they feared most when joining forces to fight the enemy was a teammate suddenly turning against them, which could easily lead to their demise.

The atmosphere turned icy as the seven True Martial Realm warriors exchanged glances and left to find places to stake out, waiting for the Secret Territory to emerge so they could depart.

Outside the Secret Territory,

Long Yue was in a fierce battle with three mid-stage True Martial Realm warriors. Her pretty face was frosty, utterly cold, and her eyes filled with fury.

She only wanted to retrieve her Dragon Ball. First, she was obstructed by nine True Martial Realm warriors inside the Secret Territory, and then, upon coming out, she was ambushed by another three True Martial Realm warriors.

Luckily, she was prepared and the assassination attempt had failed. Long Yue immediately counterattacked, employing different martial arts techniques with both her hands, battling the three True Martial Realm warriors.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

After a heated fight, Long Yue inflicted severe injuries on a fourth-stage True Martial Realm warrior and light wounds on two fifth-stage warriors.

Just as she was about to press her advantage and annihilate the three on the spot, she suddenly felt a chill in her heart and sensed that powerful beings were spying on the area, at least warriors in the later stages of the True Martial Realm.

Long Yue gave the three warriors a cold look and then vanished. She planned to lay low for a while and wait until she broke through to the Divine Yuan Realm before settling the score.

“Phew~”

The three True Martial Realm warriors exchanged glances, all heaving a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted. The pressure the dragon maiden exerted on them was too great; her strength was even more formidable than they had anticipated.

Fortunately, the dragon maiden did not continue to attack and suddenly left. Otherwise, they could indeed have been eradicated today.

Even though they recognized each other’s identities, the three warriors did not communicate further and vanished in a flash, deciding to leave the battlefield far behind.

In Qingzhou, Han Li’s brows were deeply furrowed.

He had been keeping a watchful eye on Yingyuan Mountain, and he noticed the dragon maiden’s appearance immediately. Knowing where the ambush was, he had no thought of alerting her.

Han Li had hoped that the three mid-stage True Martial Realm warriors would seriously injure the dragon maiden, so that he might have a chance, but to his disappointment, his hopes were dashed.

The dragon maiden was incredibly strong, slaughtering her way out of the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm apparently unscathed.

After emerging, she was ambushed by three warriors of the True Martial Realm and yet was not injured. Instead, she wounded the three ambushers and left with impunity.

“Such a pity.”

Han Li sighed, his tone filled with regret.

The dragon maiden’s strength was even greater than he had estimated, terrifyingly on par with the later stages of the True Martial Realm. Even if he transformed into the ‘Nine-Second True Man,’ he still wouldn’t be a match for the dragon maiden.

Without the dragon maiden being seriously injured, he had no chance of ambushing and capturing her. He could only watch helplessly as the dragon maiden left.

Fortunately, he had not held much hope. His primary target was not the dragon maiden, after all.

Although only the dragon maiden had left the Secret Territory, Han Li had just seen that there were still five figures at the exit of the Secret Territory, one of them being the female Demon King.

He had ascertained that the female Demon King was only in the first stage of the True Martial Realm. Even if she was unharmed, once she appeared, Han Li dared to attempt capturing her.

“Unable to catch the dragon maiden, I’ll have to make do with capturing the female Demon King first.”
