Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

"Ji Jue?"

Roan murmured.

He suddenly felt a little dazed, and his memory seemed to have gone back to many years ago. After his eldest brother Luo Chen was deposed, he fought with many brothers for more than ten years and finally won the position of crown prince.

That day, my father, Emperor Luo Fengtian, suddenly had an idea and asked me to bring the person he considered the most trustworthy to the palace to meet him.

Although Luo Ang was high-spirited and arrogant at that time, he always had a deep trust in Ji Jue, his childhood playmate.

He remembered that he chose Ji Jue without hesitation, and Ji Jue had never let him down. Whether in strategy in the court or bravery on the battlefield, Ji Jue was his most capable assistant.

But why did it become like this?

Luo Ang seemed unwilling to believe what he saw. He stared at Ji Jue with weak eyes and asked the question even though he knew the answer.

"Ji Jue, are you from Luo Shanhu?"

There was still hatred in Ji Jue's eyes, and he said with gritted teeth.

"I am the son of the hunter family in Tiansheng City that you massacred!"

After he finished speaking, Ji Jue suddenly drew his sword, and blood gushed out, splashing on Luo Ang's cheek.

Luo Ang stared at Ji Jue in a daze, his eyes gradually losing focus, and a familiar scene gradually emerged in his mind.

He sneaked out of the palace to hunt, but got lost in the mountains and accidentally stumbled into a hunter's dilapidated yard, only to find that the whole family had been slaughtered.

Luo Ang and others didn't care about the death of mortal beings at that time. They just reported it to the nearby government with their friends and left immediately. However, they didn't expect that unintentional mistake would sow the seeds of today's disastrous consequences.

"So that's it..."

Luo Ang weakly uttered these words with his last bit of strength. His consciousness gradually blurred, and everything in his sight began to spin, and finally fell into endless darkness.

In the jungle nearby, Luo Lishang witnessed the whole incident. He ignored Zhou Yiqiao's warning and wanted to step forward and snatch Luo Ang's body from Luo Shanhu's hands.

"Wait a minute!"

Zhou Yiqiao stopped the impulsive Luo Lishang.

"Believe me, the situation is still uncertain. Let's wait a little longer."

"What are you waiting for!?"

Luo Lishang was completely unable to understand Zhou Yiqiao's caution, and couldn't help but question him angrily.

"Wait a minute, maybe there will be a turning point!"

Hearing Zhou Yiqiao's words, Luo Lishang frowned and looked at him, but continued to watch in the direction he was looking.

After Luo Ang fell into coma, Luo Shanhu struggled to stand up and brushed the dust off his body.

She turned and nodded to a Dragon Elephant Guard, who understood and appeared in front of Luo Ang's body.

The Dragon Elephant Guard acted decisively. The moment he approached Luo Ang, a vortex of pure white spiritual power condensed in his hand and shone it directly on Luo Ang's brow.

However, just when the vortex of spiritual power was about to touch Luo Ang's brow, something strange happened!

"It's now!"

After confirming that Luo Ang had no other means, Zhou Yiqiao shouted loudly, removed the concealment spell on himself and Luo Lishang, summoned the Dusk Sword, and rushed towards the battlefield first.

The two cooperated well. Zhou Yiqiao fought against all the Dragon Elephant Guards and Red Phoenix Guards alone, while Luo Lishang rushed straight towards Luo Ang, wrapped up the dying Luo Ang with the Nine Heavens Mysterious Spirit Silk, and instantly pulled him out of the dangerous situation.

"Luo! Li! Shang!"

Luo Shanhu didn't expect that it was Luo Lishang again who ruined her plan. She was so angry that her voice almost tore the air apart.

"Since you have come here to die, then you all should stay here today!"

Luo Shanhu roared, waved her jade hand, and a red talisman appeared in her hand.

"No, get out of here!"

While Zhou Yiqiao was dealing with numerous guards, he had been keeping an eye on Luo Lishang's movements. When he saw Luo Shanhu take out the red talisman, he immediately realized the danger and warned Luo Lishang loudly.

Although Luo Lishang was not clear about the specific power of the talisman, she could sense its danger from Zhou Yiqiao's nervous tone. Without any hesitation, she immediately activated the Nine Heavens Mysterious Spiritual Ribbon and took Luo Ang to quickly dodge to the side.

Just as Luo Lishang had just left the spot, the red talisman in Luo Shanhu's hand burst out with a dazzling red light, turning into a huge pillar of fire that shot up into the sky, completely engulfing the place where she was originally standing.

The blazing flames and shock waves turned the surrounding trees and rocks into ashes. The scene was extremely shocking.

"Damn it!"

When Luo Shanhu saw that Luo Lishang and Luo Ang escaped, she stomped her feet in anger. She didn't expect Luo Lishang to react so quickly.

Zhou Yiqiao took the opportunity to wield the Dusk Sword. The sword light swept out like a streak of silk, killing several Dragon Elephant Guards and Red Phoenix Guards, and then quickly moved towards Luo Lishang.

"Once we discover that Luo Shanhu is plotting to murder the crown prince, he will definitely try every possible means to keep us here forever. We should retreat first and avoid being in the spotlight for the time being."

Feeling the nearly one hundred auras approaching this side continuously, Zhou Yiqiao said to Luo Lishang in a deep voice.

Luo Lishang nodded, without any hesitation, and put Luo Ang into a strange magic weapon that was specially used to collect living beings. He and Zhou Yiqiao took turns to cover each other and fled the scene at an extremely fast speed.

After the two left, more Dragon Elephant Guards and Red Phoenix Guards rushed to the scene. When they saw Luo Shanhu's angry expression, they all lowered their heads and dared not look him in the eye.

"Your Highness, they are running too fast. We can't catch up with them."

The leading Dragon Elephant Guard released his spiritual sense to take a look, then immediately led everyone to kneel on one knee and reported to Luo Shanhu with trembling voice.

"Waste! Waste! They are all waste!"

Luo Shanhu threw out several talismans in succession, and thunder and fire from the sky and earth roared gradually, turning the surrounding environment into a mess.

"Search for them! Even if you have to dig three feet deep, you must find them!"

Luo Shanhu's voice was icy cold, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth.

The Dragon Elephant Guards and the Red Phoenix Guards did not dare to delay at all and immediately dispersed, with Luo Shanhu as the center, and spread out to every corner of Canglong Ridge.

Everyone disappeared, and the only ones left at the site where many battles had just broken out were Luo Shanhu and the Dragon Heart Pillar that was still standing.

The monsters around the Dragon Heart Pillar had already fled because of the chaos just now, leaving only a mess behind.

Luo Shanhu stood in front of the Dragon Heart Pillar with a gloomy look. She reached out and gently touched the golden iron rod, feeling the dragon energy flowing on it, but her heart was surging.

"Heart of the Dragon Vein, I didn't expect there would actually be a replica."

Luo Shanhu whispered to herself, a hint of greed flashing in her eyes.

Even if it was just a replica, the power contained in this dragon heart pillar was enough to make up for her innate lack of talent and greatly narrow the gap in strength between her and many other princes and princesses.

If she could fully absorb this power, she was confident that she would have a greater advantage in the fight for the throne.

"Since mother can become the queen, the prince should also be chosen from among mother's offspring!"

Luo Shanhu stretched out his hand and grasped the dragon heart pillar, his face looking ferocious.

"Since my mother failed to give birth to a son, the throne of the crown prince should be passed to me!"

The remaining dragon energy on the dragon heart pillar was guided along Luo Shanhu's slender wrist to her body. In the blink of an eye, she was submerged in the light golden light...

......

On the other side, Zhou Yiqiao held Luo Lishang in his arms and fled deeper into Canglong Ridge.

Because they were worried that Luo Lishang's concealment technique would have problems like before, Zhou Yiqiao and the other man maintained this action after they had distanced themselves from each other, so that Zhou Yiqiao's concealment technique could affect them as much as possible.

"Mr. Zhou, shouldn't we leave Canglong Ridge as soon as possible and head to the outskirts to seek help from our father and others?"

In order to ease the embarrassment, Luo Lishang tried to change the subject.

Zhou Yiqiao didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He shook his head and explained very calmly.

"Since Her Royal Highness Princess said that Canglong Ridge has long been under the control of Daxuantian, then you should know how much land the entire Canglong Ridge covers, right?"

Luo Lishang nodded upon hearing this.

"Canglong Ridge is about ten thousand miles long, and three thousand miles wide at its widest point. It covers a very large area, and there are several spiritual veins in it. It is one of the important resources of the Great Xuantian Imperial Family."

"The outside of Canglong Ridge is heavily guarded, and the restrictions and formations inside are even more complicated. It is extremely difficult to pass through unless you are familiar with it."

Having said that, Luo Lishang paused, then raised his head and looked at Zhou Yiqiao.

"Mr. Zhou means..."

"good."

Seeing that Luo Lishang understood it immediately, Zhou Yiqiao's eyes flashed with approval.

"This Canglong Ridge is only ten thousand miles away at most. As long as you are a normal combined cultivator, you can see what most of the cultivators in Canglong Ridge are doing."

"As one of the strongest people in the Tianchen Realm, how could the Immortal Emperor not see the fierce battle on our side?"

"Even though the Crown Prince was assassinated, the Immortal Emperor did not take any action. I'm afraid all of this was within his expectations."

After he finished speaking, Zhou Yiqiao let out a long breath, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

"Therefore, we cannot act rashly now. We must first figure out the Immortal Emperor's intentions before making any plans."

Upon hearing this, Luo Lishang stammered for a long time, but thinking of her father's character, she could only nod helplessly.

"Mr. Zhou is right, but what should we do now?"

"After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is seriously injured. If he cannot receive timely treatment, it may affect the foundation and shake the country's foundation."

Seeing this, Zhou Yiqiao patted her shoulder gently and comforted her.

"Don't worry, things will always turn around."

The two of them quickly shuttled through the dense forest. Zhou Yiqiao kept observing his surroundings, and after repeatedly making sure that there were no pursuers following them, he stopped in an area where the spiritual power was slightly thin.

"We need to find a safe place for Loon to recuperate."

As Zhou Yiqiao spoke, he glanced around. After confirming that this place was sparsely populated, he took out a formation plate from his storage bag and began to set it up.

Seeing this, Luo Lishang immediately stepped forward to help, and together they quickly set up a concealment formation in the dense forest, completely hiding the valley.
