Ning Province, Heavenly Mist Domain.

The secret of Cangwu Mountain has shaken the entire cultivation world.

The An Clan, a cultivation family that rose rapidly and dominated Ning Province for thousands of years, is completely finished.

Right now, the members of the An Clan are being subjected to a ruthless slaughter.

Many sects, venting their anger over the deaths of their predecessors onto the An Clan, have dispatched their elites to hunt down the clan members in a massive purge.

Anyone over the age of twelve is to be killed without exception.

At this moment, a massive storied ship is sailing above the clouds.

"Ye Xi!"

"This was all his scheme. From beginning to end, his goal was to uncover the person behind the An Clan!"

Jiang Youlong's expression is grim, his tone chilling as he speaks.

He recalls the entire sequence of events; Ye Xi seemingly never made a move, yet in reality, he was manipulating everything.

Even the conflict between Ye Qingge and Yuan Ruoyu...

The moment Great Emperor Zhitong appeared, the An Clan had already fallen into the other party's trap.

Because of the appearance of a Great Emperor, the An Clan was forced to take the risk of refining the Alien Seed.

Then, they were goaded into exposing the alienated forms of the three An Clan ancestors to the eyes of all cultivators.

"In this way..."

Jiang Youlong's breathing quickens as he mutters, "Venerable Heavenly Punishment had to choose to reveal himself and kill everyone to prevent the alienation from being exposed!"

"But in doing so, he fell right into Ye Xi's trap, and in the end, he was severely wounded by him!"

Thinking of this, he cannot help but feel a deep sense of dread toward this Great Emperor Nicholas.

He feels both admiration and fear!

The storied ship falls into silence once more.

Zuo Qingtian and Hua Hongyi stand on opposite sides of the deck, their gazes hollow as they stare into the distance.

Jiang Youlong scratches his hair without restraint, a sense of powerlessness rising in his heart!

He thinks of something else and suddenly jumps up!

"No!"

"Ye Xi is formidable, but the most terrifying one is the Immortal Great Emperor!"

Jiang Youlong paces the deck, speaking rapidly:

"The Immortal Great Emperor never showed his face from start to finish, yet everything was within his grasp!"

"Just by using a diary!"

"He stirred up the winds and clouds of the world, swayed the situation, and made everything proceed according to his will!"

The deeper Jiang Youlong thinks, the more he feels a chill running down his spine!

He looks up toward the nine heavens.

"The Immortal Great Emperor even dragged those who were originally the chess players into the game!"

Jiang Youlong swallows hard and says with difficulty, "Now, it is not even certain who the prey is!"

"Everything indicates that the Immortal Great Emperor has begun his counterattack!"

After saying this, he lets out a long sigh.

Thinking that the Immortal Court actually sent them to track the whereabouts of the Immortal Great Emperor, he wonders if such a dangerous existence is truly something they can deal with.

Jiang Youlong's heart sinks abruptly: "Could it be that even we have long been part of his calculations?"

However, at this very moment!

Hua Hongyi on the other side suddenly goes mad; she looks up at the sky and screams at the top of her lungs:

"I dare ask, between heaven and earth, is there truly an immortal?!"

As soon as these words are spoken, the expressions of Jiang Youlong and Zuo Qingtian turn even uglier.

Within Cangwu Mountain, the remains of a Great Emperor who had once ascended were discovered.

This matter is not only a blow to other cultivators, but it is also a fatal one to them.

What are the three of them seeking by working for the Immortal Court?

Isn't it the hope that one day, in return for their toil and travel, the Immortal Court will allow them to ascend to the Immortal Realm?

But!

The truth of Cangwu Mountain now tells them that ascension does not necessarily mean becoming an immortal.

It is also possible to become a skeleton that has been devoured.

"Pfft—"

Hua Hongyi suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, appearing as if she had gone mad.

Her obsession with becoming an immortal was the deepest of them all.

The exposure of the secret of Cangwu Mountain was the greatest blow to her.

Jiang Youlong and Zuo Qingtian were shocked and just about to walk over.

However, they saw Hua Hongyi suddenly take out an object, which was an ink-black writing brush.

Hua Hongyi tossed the brush toward Jiang Youlong and said coldly, "If they are all man-eating immortals, then this position of immortal envoy is not worth holding!"

Jiang Youlong was stunned for a moment, his expression turning solemn: "Hua Hongyi, have you thought about the consequences!"

If you can't find the book title, try searching for the author; perhaps it has just been renamed!

Zuo Qingtian also tried to persuade her: "This will invite the wrath of heaven!"

"Heh—"

Hua Hongyi sneered, her laughter sounding somewhat manic, her chest heaving, yet her voice carried a sense of determination:

"The wrath of heaven? It would only mean being devoured and wiped clean."

Hua Hongyi looked at them with a hint of mockery, then changed the subject: "Can you guarantee that this won't be your fate as well?"

Zuo Qingtian's expression shifted, becoming terrifyingly gloomy.

Jiang Youlong opened his mouth wide, realizing that deep down, he actually had no confidence at all.

"Perhaps those Great Emperors only ended up that way because they committed errors..."

Hua Hongyi did not want to listen any further and said coldly, "Enough! My mind is made up; from now on, we go our separate ways!"

"Even if it is the wrath of heaven, so what? I want to live a few days of carefree life first."

However, at that very moment.

All three of them felt something simultaneously and looked sharply toward the rear.

Their expressions all changed drastically.

Without anyone noticing, an extra person had appeared on the ship.

A young man dressed in white, with a face as handsome as jade and an extraordinary bearing, was looking at them with a smile.

The person who had arrived was none other than Great Emperor Nicholas, Ye Xi!

Jiang Youlong's expression changed drastically, and a sense of unprecedented crisis rose in his heart.

It was only then that he realized.

Ye Xi had calculated everything; how could he have failed to calculate them?

It wasn't that the other party didn't know, but rather that now was the time to close the net!

Zuo Qingtian was also trembling with fear.

Hua Hongyi, on the other hand, after her initial shock, gave a self-deprecating smile and did not react much.

Jiang Youlong took a deep breath, cupped his hands, and said, "I wonder what instructions the Great Emperor has for coming here in person?"

He was still holding onto a final shred of hope.

Fight back?

There was not a single chance of that.

Ye Xi's smile remained, and he said calmly, "I came here for one reason: to exterminate you."

"All lackeys of the alien race must die; you are just going a little earlier!"

Jiang Youlong and Zuo Qingtian's faces turned several shades paler.

As death approached, both of their legs began to tremble...

"Run!"

Only one thought remained in Jiang Youlong's mind; in front of a Great Emperor, no one dared to resist.

However, just as he and Zuo Qingtian lunged forward, preparing to unleash every life-saving treasure they possessed to escape.

They discovered that their bodies no longer obeyed them.

Even their entire cultivation power was completely sealed, leaving them unable to move.

Ye Xi had no interest in toying with them; he flicked his finger, and a ball of true fire flew out, engulfing the two of them.

"Ah—"

Immediately, heart-wrenching screams erupted from the fire, lasting only a moment before falling silent.

The two of them had been reduced to ashes.

Not even a wisp of their primordial spirits remained.

Hua Hongyi did not flee; she had already closed her eyes to await death, yet she felt no move from Ye Xi for a long time.

She opened her eyes, only to see the other party looking at her with a smile.

Hua Hongyi asked with some surprise, "You aren't going to kill me?"

A moment later.

Ye Xi smiled and shook his head, reaching out a hand toward her: "Rebel with me, and I will lead you to become an immortal!"

"A true immortal, free and eternal!"

A glimmer of light flashed in Hua Hongyi's eyes, only to quickly dim as she said:

"But, I once also..."

Ye Xi spoke again: "That was not your fault. What is wrong is this man-eating Immortal Court!"

"I have just started my cause and need manpower. Let's go overthrow them together!"

"What we are going to do is change the heavens and the earth!"

Hua Hongyi's body trembled. After a moment of hesitation, she took a deep breath and bowed solemnly toward Ye Xi!

"Hua Hongyi is willing to follow the Great Emperor for the rest of my life!"

Ye Xi smiled and said, "Good, stand up quickly. From now on, we are comrades-in-arms, fighting together for the ideals and light in our hearts!"

He thought to himself, my master once said...

The enemy is too powerful; any person who can be won over and any resource that can be utilized must not be wasted.

Afterward, Ye Xi left the pleasure boat, with Hua Hongyi following closely behind!

If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf so you don't lose it next time!
