Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch's Marriage

The Barbarian Lord from the Summit of the Stars slightly furrowed his brows and spoke, “Both of you, let’s calm down. The urgent matter at hand is to find that mysterious powerhouse.”

With the Human Clan’s power being great, although the Barbarian Lord did not like the actions of the Demon Lord Dongfang Qingcang, he could only stand on the same side with him, otherwise, both the Demon and Barbarian clans would be suppressed by the Human Clan to the point where they’d have no strength to resist.”

Only by uniting could the Demon and Barbarian clans have the strength to make the Human Clan wary, preventing them from acting recklessly against both clans.”

If the Demon Lord Dongfang Qingcang and the old Daoist Guanhai fought, he wasn’t sure whether he should help. Not helping would fail to maintain the united front, but helping might escalate the conflict.”

In doing so, things would become much bigger, and if things escalated to a serious level, he feared it might directly lead to the fourth great war between the Human Clan and the Demon Barbarians. Starting such a war now would only lead to defeat for the Demon Barbarians.”

The only solution was to prevent the Demon Lord Dongfang Qingcang and the old Daoist Guanhai from fighting, which would require shifting the conflict and having both of them focus their efforts on finding the mysterious powerhouse.”

“What the Barbarian Lord said is not wrong.”

The Daoist from Bai Yujing laughed and nodded his head. He was an old man with the demeanor of a transcendent being and kind eyes, wearing a Tai Ji Daoist robe and a lotus crown on his head.”

“For ten thousand years, Tongxuan Realm Loose Cultivators have kept emerging one after another in Qianyuan Divine Province, suggesting that something beyond our control might have happened.”

The Daoist with transcendent demeanor looked at Emperor Wu’s City’s Lord who had been brought in, furrowing his brows slightly.

Seven thousand years ago, Chen Xilai of the Heavenly Dao, a late-stage Tongxuan Realm powerhouse, actually could erupt with combat ability close to the Saint Yuan Realm, bolstered by that red pearl.”

The Lord of Emperor Wu’s City seven thousand years later, a late-stage Tongxuan Realm powerhouse as well, was able to withstand multiple Sacred Soldiers and could also unleash the ordinary fighting power of the Saint Yuan Realm.”

There is also the most mysterious Tongxuan Realm powerhouse, who possesses Emperor Weapons that can muddle time and space and Emperor Formations that can conceal fates. He launched a surprise attack on Dangyang Mountain, killed Xumi Mountain’s Joyful Arhat, and captured the Fairy of Penglai Immortal Sect, Ling Lingshuang.”

All other Divine Yuan Realm Martial Emperors bore injuries, as if this mysterious Tongxuan Realm powerhouse had slapped each one, including the suppressed Lord of Emperor Wu’s City.”

As the Barbarian Lord from the Summit of the Stars and the Daoist from Bai Yujing consecutively spoke up, old Daoist Guanhai and Demon Lord Dongfang Qingcang both calmed down. They might dismiss the Barbarian Lord, but the words of the Daoist demanded their attention.”

Plus, what the two said made sense.”

After this incident, both old Daoist Guanhai and Demon Lord Dongfang Qingcang suspected that the one who abducted the Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing and Fairy Ling Lingshuang was the same mysterious Tongxuan Realm powerhouse.”

With so many Divine Yuan Realm Martial Emperors on Dangyang Mountain, why did they specifically abduct Fairy Ling Lingshuang?

Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing was also a female Divine Yuan Realm Martial Emperor, and the site where Xue Yueqing disappeared also bore traces of Emperor Weapons, making it hard for them not to put two and two together.”

All six present were among the most prominent figures in Qianyuan Divine Province, well aware that under their control, it was impossible for two mysterious Tongxuan Realm powerhouses with Emperor Weapons to emerge within a short period.”

All signs pointed towards this conclusion.”

So, who exactly was this mysterious Tongxuan Realm powerhouse?

Where were they hiding?

What was their unspeakable motive for capturing two female Divine Yuan Realm Martial Emperors consecutively?

To act so openly and within such a short span of two years—it was as if they were not taking these seven Great Holy Land Schools seriously at all.”

At this moment, the hearts of the Demon Lord, the Daoist, the Barbarian Lord, and the other six Tongxuan Realm powerhouses were feeling rather displeased.”

The mysterious Tongxuan Realm powerhouse could capture Ling Lingshuang from the Penglai Immortal Sect and abduct Xue Yueqing from Myriad Demon Mountain, even slaying Xumi Mountain’s Joyful Arhat, acting too brazenly—this had crossed the bottom line of the Great Holy Land Schools.”

If today this person dared to abduct and suppress Divine Yuan Realm Martial Emperors from Penglai Immortal Sect and Xumi Mountain, would they tomorrow abduct and suppress Divine Yuan Realm Martial Emperors from Heavenly Demon Hall, Bai Yujing, and House of Divine Armies among other Sacred Lands?

And would they then aim to lay their hands on these masters of the Sacred Lands, the Tongxuan Realm powerhouses?

Did they truly believe that possessing Emperor Weapons and cultivating to the Tongxuan Realm meant they could challenge these Great Holy Land Schools?

Ridiculous!

As Sacred Lands and Great Schools, even if they had fallen into decline, there would be at least one Immortal Weapon and two Top Grade Emperor Weapons within their power circles, accumulated over countless years.”

How could they be overthrown by mere thousands of years of effort from other Cultivators?

“So, if any of you have suspicions about who it might be, feel free to share them. I refuse to believe that person didn’t leave any clues,” said Demon Lord Dugu Weizun indifferently.”

The Ancestor of House of Divine Armies and the Barbarian Lord from the Summit of the Stars both shook their heads slightly; they hadn’t paid much attention to this matter before.”

Demon Lord Dongfang Qingcang sighed and said, “I have tried to deduce their tracks before, but failed. There have been no discoveries.”

The Sacred Land Masters looked towards the Daoist from Bai Yujing, who also shook his head and added, “The poor Daoist hasn’t found anything yet.”

Thinking for a moment, the Daoist looked in a certain direction and suddenly said, “Fellow Daoist Yu Fengzi, could you come out to meet us?”

The Demon Lord, the Demon Lord, the Ancestor of Arms, the Barbarian Lord, and other Sacred Land Masters also looked in the same direction, their eyes filled with anticipation.”

Yu Fengzi was a Tongxuan Realm powerhouse and the person in charge of Tianji Pavilion in Qianyuan Divine Province. He was extremely low-profile and almost never appeared in public, such that the world hardly knew of such a powerful figure in Divine Province.”

They had long noticed Yu Fengzi was watching, but hadn’t said anything, or rather, they didn’t care much.”

After all, Tianji Pavilion was one of the nine most powerful forces in the Endless Yuankun Domain, always adhering to neutrality with excellent credibility. The branch of Tianji Pavilion in Divine Province had existed since ancient times.”
