Chapter 15: Chapter 15: Long Night Ancient Kingdom

A faint sense of oppression emanated from that crown, as if it contained a mysterious power.

The young man yawned, feeling somewhat bored.

As the giant slowly approached, the entire ground trembled, and the terrifying aura emanating from the giant made those present not dare to act rashly.

“Ah Nu, just stop here,” the young man said blandly.

The giant obediently stopped in place without moving forward.

At this moment, the young man also opened his eyes.

As he opened his eyes, everyone present was shocked because the young man’s eyes were not normal human eyes.

Those eyes, half Yin and half Yang, were like a Tai Chi pattern.

They looked very strange.

The young man’s gaze also fell on Lu Qiaoqiao, and he said with a smile, “Quite a charming girl.”

Being stared at like this by the young man, Lu Qiaoqiao felt an indescribable fear, especially due to those eyes, which made her feel uncomfortable.

“Who are you?” Faced with this sudden giant and the young man, Lady Congyun and Jiang Hu were somewhat at a loss; they could sense that this young man was also a Ghost Cultivator, but they did not know which faction he belonged to.

However, the young man didn’t bother to respond to Jiang Hu and Lady Congyun’s questions and continued to say to Lu Qiaoqiao, “You’re Lu Qiaoqiao, right? Come with me.”

“Why should she go with you?” Li Hengsheng at this moment fearlessly met the young man’s gaze.

His fist was clenched white, but his steps didn’t budge.

The young man glanced at Li Hengsheng and chuckled, “Want to protect your beloved woman? It’s a good thought, but unfortunately, your strength is too weak, so weak that in my eyes, you’re not even as good as an insect.”

“I’m talking to Lu Qiaoqiao, not to you. To be precise, a bug like you doesn’t even have the qualification to speak with me. But since I’m in a good mood today, I’ll give you a couple more words, shouldn’t you be grateful?” The young man said with a smile.

Humiliated like this, Li Hengsheng wished he could rush over and tear the young man’s mouth apart, but he knew clearly that if he went up, he would only be courting death.

“Crown Prince?”

Hearing this title, Lady Congyun’s pupils shrunk, and even her breathing became rapid, “You’re from the Long Night Ancient Kingdom? Could you be Chu Changkong?”

“Chu Changkong?” Hearing that name, Jiang Hu was also taken aback.

The Long Night Ancient Kingdom was once extremely famous, but for unknown reasons, it suddenly vanished overnight, and for a full fifty years, it hadn’t appeared.

However, fifty years later, powerful figures from the Long Night Ancient Kingdom appeared, and Chu Bumie became the new Sovereign of the Long Night Ancient Kingdom.

He went around challenging powerful beings from various races and later went to Celestial Sea City to challenge Realm Master Jiang Tianyun. The outcome of that battle was unknown to anyone.

The Long Night Ancient Kingdom reappeared in the public eye, but its people seldom wandered in the Cangyuan Realm, and no one knew where the kingdom was located now.

Fifteen years ago, a prodigious talent was born in the Long Night Ancient Kingdom, naturally possessing Yin Yang Pupils, named Chu Changkong.

He reached the Postnatal Realm at six.

Entered the Innate Realm at eleven.

Rumor has it that he hopes in the future to reach the legendary Land Immortal status, becoming the second Land Immortal following Chu Bumie.

No one expected to see Chu Changkong here today.

Jiang Hu and Lady Congyun couldn’t have imagined that even the mysterious Long Night Ancient Kingdom would get involved.

If Chu Changkong insisted on taking Lu Qiaoqiao away, could Destiny Star Hall and Yin Shi Tower stop him?

“Lu Qiaoqiao, how about coming back to the Long Night Ancient Kingdom with me, the Crown Prince?” Chu Changkong said with a bright smile, “If you come, I’ll have the Sovereign designate you as the Saintess of the Long Night Ancient Kingdom, to enjoy the best resources.”

“Hmph, our Destiny Star Hall can do the same,” Jiang Hu said, stepping forward, “If you join us, Destiny Star Hall, I can assure you of entering our star river scroll realm in the future to comprehend the Grand Star Scroll.”

Seeing the sudden shift in the situation, Lady Congyun was also anxious and quickly said, “We at Yin Shi Tower have countless Painting Treasures and an abundance of top-notch works. If you come, we will meet all your demands.”

The abrupt shift in the situation left everyone bewildered.

Why was Lu Qiaoqiao so highly sought after?

“Unfortunately, Lu Qiaoqiao is a disciple of our Mountain Ancient Land, none of you can take her away,” it was then when several figures rushed in from a distance.

They were all dressed in Mountain Ancient Land attire.

Seeing the people from Mountain Ancient Land arrive, Elder Lin Feng finally felt a sense of relief.

Lady Congyun was also startled but felt relieved only after seeing Xue Qianbai was not in the crowd.

“What a bother, didn’t expect them to show up so soon.” Chu Changkong tilted his head and said helplessly, yet he didn’t show the slightest worry.

“They are strong experts from Mountain Ancient Land.”

“We’re saved!”

The disciples from Wanzai Peak were overjoyed to tears, and Li Hengsheng also breathed a sigh of relief, excitedly grabbing Lu Qiaoqiao’s hand and couldn’t help but say, “Junior Sister Lu, we’re safe now.”

Lu Qiaoqiao quietly watched the people from Mountain Ancient Land, her expression surprisingly indifferent.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

Several figures surrounded everyone; there were hundreds of them, all Inner Sect Disciples from Mountain Ancient Land!

Each of their cultivation levels was quite impressive.

And the six figures leading them emanated an Innate aura.

“Mountain Ancient Land sure is cautious, we just have a few people, yet it alarmed six Peak Masters from Mountain Ancient Land, tsk tsk.” Chu Changkong said with a smile.

Jiang Hu and Lady Congyun put their hands on their weapons.

“You of the Ghost Race are quite bold to cause trouble in our Mountain Ancient Land territory,” said a Red-clothed Peak Master stepping forward.

“Lin Feng, are you alright?” Xu Muhai stepped out at this time, saw Elder Lin Feng’s arm still bleeding, and quickly took out a wound medicine to stop the bleeding for him.

“So what if we’re causing trouble, want to fight?” Chu Changkong was utterly fearless, still smiling as he said, “Frankly speaking, maybe if Xue Qianbai were here, I’d be a bit apprehensive, but as for you six, Ah Nu alone could kill three of you, and I, the Crown Prince, could take down two of you without issue…”

“The two jokers from Destiny Star Hall and Yin Shi Tower, teaming up they should easily handle one. What do you think your chances are, Mountain Ancient Land?” Chu Changkong shrugged.

“We’ll have to see to find out,” Xu Muhai still maintained his usual unkempt appearance, but unlike usual, his expression was extremely serious.

The atmosphere on the scene became subtle.

Just as everyone was ready to draw swords and fight, Lu Qiaoqiao suddenly released Li Hengsheng’s hand, stepped forward, and said to Chu Changkong, “Stop, I’ll go with you.”
