Longevity: Starting as a Sect Servant-Chapter 276 - 205: Fei Tianqi

"Report!"

"The outer defense line has been breached, the spirit beasts guarding the mountain have been killed, the Human Race is attacking—"

This message spread throughout Celestial Killer Mountain.

All the mountain lords were greatly shocked.

"Revenge, this is the revenge of the Human Race!"

"General Jia Man slaughtered all the people sent from outside, perhaps he has directly angered Great Li. What should we do now?"

"Alas..."

Many of the mountain lords sighed, after all, the power of Great Li is widely known today. If it weren’t for Jia Man, who knows how many Human Cultivators are already prepared to defect from Celestial Killer Mountain to return to the outside world...

The sound of horns rang out, and all the mountain lords hurriedly gathered towards General Jia Man.

Inside the great hall.

The crowd was as silent as the dead, and Li An remained calm and silent.

"Reporting to General Jia Man, the two Rank Three spirit beasts guarding the entrance to the mountain have been shot and killed by the enemy. Now, the enemy is already outside Celestial Evil City, they are, they are..."

"Speak!" Jia Man said in a deep voice.

"The enemy is outside Celestial Evil City, skinning and cleaning the spirit beasts, openly roasting them— the leader is named Fei Tianqi, and he has declared that after eating the spirit beasts, he will slaughter Celestial Evil City!"

As soon as this was said, the entire place was in an uproar.

Arrogant, too arrogant!

"Fei Tianqi..."

"So it’s him!"

"He’s here... The Great Li army is probably not far behind!"

This name caused all the cultivators in the place to exclaim.

"Fei Tianqi was once the Saint Child of the Blood Essence Sect in Xiling Origin Continent, and after entering the Immortal Talent Hall, he was honored as the first person. He is very influential in the Great Li Empire. It’s said that his cultivation has reached the Late-Stage Golden Core, and he is about to break through to Nascent Soul..."

Clearly, Fei Tianqi is a truly heavyweight figure in the Great Li Empire.

"I received a piece of information before..."

At this moment, a mountain lord also spoke up, "It is said that this person was valued by the White Tiger Empress, so she arranged a marriage for him with Gu Hong, the first princess of Great Li. They should be getting engaged soon, I don’t know how he ended up here..."

Upon hearing this, the silent Li An suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked at this mountain lord! 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Gu Hong?!

The first princess of Great Li?

At this moment, his heart was filled with shock, doubt, bewilderment... various emotions flashed by!

Gu Hong... is it the Gu Hong he knows?

His former wife?

In the battle of Celestial Yang City, wasn’t she already dead...

No!

Li An never saw her die with his own eyes, at that time, she stayed behind decisively to cover Li An’s escape... Li An only assumed she was dead.

Could it be that she didn’t die, but instead defected to Shangguan Shengxian, and thus became the first princess of Great Li today?

Various possibilities flashed in Li An’s mind, but he quickly denied them one by one.

He doesn’t believe Gu Hong would voluntarily defect to Shangguan Shengxian.

Someone who isn’t afraid of death, what else would they fear?

He took a deep breath, calming down.

First, the so-called first princess of Great Li might not be his wife Gu Hong.

Second, if it is truly Gu Hong, then she must have been coerced, and even... perhaps already became a puppet of Shangguan Shengxian, with the purpose definitely being Li An!

Shangguan Shengxian is not a fool, killing Gu Hong wouldn’t benefit her at all, but keeping Gu Hong... there would be a chance to find Li An.

Scenes of meeting Gu Hong in the past flashed through Li An’s mind...

In Qingyang Market, an accidental rescue, then going together to Cloud Illusion Mountain Range to find the Primordial Soul Beast Crystal Core... At that time, Li An was trapped in the Primordial Soul Beast Crystal Core cave, if it were anyone else, they would have left long ago, but she waited at their agreed spot with Li An...

In White Tiger City, she cooperated with Li An, even concealing from her master to help Li An hide his identity and breakthrough Foundation Establishment...

In Celestial Yang City, she gave up a chance to escape at the last moment to protect Li An’s departure. It was then that Li An realized, she had known all those years, the person she married was Li An, so she was willing without regret.

...

In this life, if anyone truly left a mark on Li An’s heart, it would only be her.

Wang Dazhu would harm him for Chen Qingling, even Tan Qingxue, with whom he was intimately connected, would leave him in times of life and death.

Only Gu Hong.

If it truly is her...

If she is truly being forced into marriage...

A nameless killing intent slowly rose in Li An’s heart.

Fei Tianqi!

...

"In addition, the enemy has also sent a challenge letter, naming the general for a challenge..."

The scout continued, his voice trembling.

Jia Man took the challenge letter and glanced at it. The letter was filled with arrogant words, even asking Jia Man what kind of Demon Race he was, so they could prepare seasonings, treating Jia Man as prey.

The challenge letter was signed: Immortal Talent Hall, Fei Tianqi!

"Bang!"

Jia Man suddenly slammed the challenge letter onto the table, his face full of anger, but he endured for a long time before saying, "Everyone remain vigilant, strengthen defenses, absolutely do not rashly attack—"

He was not overwhelmed by anger.

The Celestial Killer Mountain Range is currently empty, the remaining mountain lords and others absolutely cannot contend with Great Li, and this is the best choice before the enemy’s situation is clear.

The mountain lords immediately dispersed.

Jia Man turned and looked at Li An, meaningfully saying, "Lord Lin, the safety of the Celestial Killer Mountain now depends on whether your strategy succeeds, but you don’t need to involve yourself in the matter of Chaotic Peak Forest... you step back to Celestial Gate Mountain and guard there."

Li An was surprised.

Celestial Gate Mountain is the retreat path of the Celestial Killer Mountain Range, and the necessary route to enter the Demon Realm.

It’s currently the safest place, if the front line is defeated, Li An can also escape immediately.

Jia Man actually gave such a good opportunity to him?

But, he just shook his head, "I appreciate your kindness, but... I will still follow the plan and go to Chaotic Peak Forest, it’s my duty."
