Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch's Marriage

Chapter 107 - 107 Fengbo Pavilion_l

The Daqian Empire was home to four states in its eastern region, and Jingzhou was one of them.

Within Jingzhou, there were six major sects, five of which were headed by a Hollow Void Stage Guru, while the last was led by a Great Grandmaster of the Myriad Phenomena Realm.

The Guihun Sect was the foremost among Jingzhou’s six major sects. Its Sect Leader, Yuchi Bu, was a man of formidable strength, widely recognized as the number one powerhouse in Jingzhou.

At this moment, within the Guihun Sect, Sect Leader Yuchi Bu was secretly meeting with an envoy.

This envoy alone possessed peak powers of the Myriad Phenomena Realm, which left Yuchi Bu secretly shocked. The background of the Mysterious Forces was unfathomable if an envoy could easily kill him.

“Sect Leader Yuchi, if there’s no issue, then we should establish the alliance right away,” said the envoy clad in blue robes with a calm tone.

Yuchi Bu hesitated a bit. The envoy represented the Mysterious Forces and had already promised him a wealth of benefits. Upon success, they would elevate the Guihun Sect to new heights.

However, Yuchi Bu was somewhat worried about the Daqian Empire. Once he formed the alliance, he would be entirely opposed to the Daqian Empire, leaving no room for sentiment. Should the news leak, the Daqian Empire would certainly annihilate the Guihun Sect immediately, asserting the empire’s authority.

Seeing his indecision, the envoy sighed inwardly, aware that the offered benefits were still not sufficient, and so he played his last card.

“In addition to the conditions we’ve agreed upon, once our endeavor succeeds, the Guihun Sect can select three disciples every hundred years to study under my faction’s tutelage. We will provide enough resources to cultivate an Emperor Wu of the True Martial Realm for the Guihun Sect within five hundred years.”

Yuchi Bu’s heart leaped with excitement, and without hesitation, he immediately said, “It’s a deal!”

The collaboration with the Mysterious Forces had revealed their substantial resources; they were a formidable power with several Emperor Wus of the True Martial Realm, far surpassing the might of the Daqian Empire.

Their reason for partnering with the Guihun Sect was to foster a proxy—a foreign power like theirs could not personally overthrow the Daqian Empire without facing resistance from all the major forces in the Xuan Domain.

The power structure of the Xuan Domain was well-established, and no faction was keen on letting others steal their share of the territory.

With support from the Mysterious Forces, overturning the Daqian Empire became highly plausible. When that time came, the Guihun Sect would reap great benefits and have the opportunity to advance into the True Martial Realm.

Yuchi Bu knew that the Mysterious Forces had approached multiple sects within the Daqian Empire; even if he refused, others would likely agree, and the empire’s days were numbered.

After leaving the Guihun Sect, the envoy headed towards another place, musing over Yuchi Bu’s greedy appearance while sneering inwardly.

Exiting Jingzhou, the envoy arrived in another state and went deep into a mountain range stretching tens of thousands of miles, where a high building stood. It had thirty-six floors, each six meters high.

Above the main door of the first floor hung a plaque inscribed with three characters: Fengbo Pavilion.

The envoy moved past layer upon layer of formations, ignoring the patrolling cultivators, and arrived at the base of Fengbo Pavilion with a hint of wariness.

He was well aware that Fengbo Pavilion was the headquarters established by the Mysterious Forces within the Daqian Empire and that the pavilion itself was a powerful Heaven Rank Artifact.

The envoy entered Fengbo Pavilion and made his way to the thirty-sixth floor, where an old man was gazing out the window at the scenery. The envoy spoke with great respect:

“Master, your orders have been successfully carried out.”

“Hmm.”

The old man responded nonchalantly, as though the matter was of little consequence. Without turning around, he added:

“Little Tianxiang has been causing some trouble in Leizhou. She’s gotten on the wrong side of Prince Wu’an and is now being pursued by Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong. Will you go help her?”

The envoy felt a chill in his heart and hurriedly said, “I will follow your instructions in all matters.”

He could tell that the old man was somewhat angry. Lu Tianxiang had done something foolish to upset Prince Wu’an, which could potentially disrupt their grand scheme.

If she disrupted the plans of their forces, Lu Tianxiang would surely face severe consequences. If the matter was grave enough, she might even be put to death.

Although the envoy was Lu Tianxiang’s uncle and had taken good care of her, he did not dare to take on this task now, as it could have implications for him as well.

“Let’s see if the little Tianxiang girl makes it back alive,” said the old man before dismissing the envoy and saying no more.

The envoy quietly left Fengbo Pavilion, secretly praying that Lu Tianxiang would be able to evade this assassination attempt.

After inquiring about the situation, the envoy sighed and finally understood why the True Martial Realm master was angry.

Leizhou, Zhenyi Manor.

Under the moonlit night, a figure was frantically fleeing, with two others in hot pursuit.

No matter how the figure ahead tried to escape, those two were tightly on his trail, unable to shake them off.

“Two stubborn plasters!” Lu Tianxiang cursed angrily.

After fleeing the battlefield, she continued to escape while desperately consuming medicine. She had to quickly heal her injuries and recover her strength, or else she was doomed.

But her strength had greatly diminished after being injured, and her speed had also decreased. Before long, Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong had caught up with her.

With no other choice, Lu Tianxiang had to fight while running, constantly disrupting the two men in order to buy herself more time.

Her power was originally not a match for either of the two, and with her injuries, she was even less of an opponent. Her disruptions weren’t very effective, and the two men soon caught up to her again.

After escaping for a hundred thousand li, Lu Tianxiang was almost unable to run anymore, her injuries becoming even more serious, thanks to Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong.

Tens of li behind her, Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong relentlessly chased her, maintaining communication through whispers and occasionally attacking the Mother of No Life, aggravating her wounds.

In their eyes, this operation was practically a sure win. With their strength, they could have already forcibly subdued Lu Tianxiang, but they were somewhat wary of her fighting back desperately and injuring them significantly.

Moreover, they wanted to handle this matter gracefully. Prince Wu’an had given them two options: capture or kill, and they chose to capture.

Bringing the Mother of No Life back alive would certainly earn them far greater merit. Now that the Mother of No Life was almost out of resistance, she was at their mercy.

“Mother of No Life, surrender immediately, and we may still grant you a way to live,” Wan Guiyuan shouted.

“Dream on! Don’t think I’m unaware of your schemes.”

Lu Tianxiang stopped on a vast grassland, touched her chest with one hand, and sneered.

Indeed, she could run no longer, seeing no hope left. Her Gang Yuan was nearly depleted, and her injuries were worsening. If she continued to flee, she would indeed have no power to resist.

She was even less likely to believe Wan Guiyuan’s nonsense. If captured alive, the fate awaiting her was worse than death.

“Demoness, you’ve got no say in this!”

Yang Tianxiong snorted coldly, his terrifying martial intent descended upon Lu

Tianxiang, creating immense pressure on her as if she were bearing two huge mountains on her shoulders.

Wan Guiyuan’s martial intent also descended, suppressing Lu Tianxiang’s martial intent, creating even more advantages for Yang Tianxiong.

“Am I truly going to die here?” Lu Tianxiang, suffering under the martial intent of two Great Grandmasters, became somewhat delirious.

Her past flashed before her eyes like a swift horse passing a gap, leaving Lu Tianxiang deeply saddened. Not long ago, she was full of vigor, seeing a glimmer of rising hope. Was she going to die now?

Six hundred li away, upon a great mountain, a figure stood, quietly observing this scene.

“What a hassle,” Han Li muttered to himself.

Despite his deliberate concealment, none of the three Great Grandmasters had noticed him.

The Mother of No Life was his enemy; he didn’t want to come back, but he had to because she might know that he had the Rebirth Pill.

If he could save her, he would; if not, he would have to act first.

If the Mother of No Life announced the matter before she died, his troubles would escalate. Compared to dealing with the Daqian Empire, Han Li felt dealing with the Mother of No Life was far easier, many times over. After all, the Mother of No Life couldn’t beat him; he would just have to gravely wound her a few more times and see if she dared to trouble him again.

Besides the matter of the Rebirth Pill Formula, Han Li had another reason for coming here.
