I am about to die of old age, and I have awakened the character of longevity.

Chapter 273 Bai Yujing is not dead!?

The man in black is called Black Fiend, and he is the strongest among the Black and White Fiends, surpassing White Fiend by a considerable margin.

During the brief pause in his conversation with Xie An and Su Yuqing, he had been trying to probe their strength using secret methods. All his attempts ended in failure. Now, facing Xie An's stern questioning, he didn't want to answer, but he couldn't resist the oppressive aura emanating from Xie An.

Finally, Black Demon lowered his head in fear, unable to meet Xie An's gaze.

Xie An's gaze sharpened, and he said, "What, you won't tell me?"

As he spoke, Xie An raised the teacup he was playing with, and a powerful surge of spiritual energy erupted from his body, creating wave after wave of overwhelming power that swept across the entire room, making it difficult for the Black and White Duo to breathe.

Huhu~
Black Fiend was panting heavily, his heart was pounding, and large beads of sweat were streaming down his forehead.

Tick.

As beads of sweat fell to the ground, Hei Sha finally felt a death-level threat and could no longer remain silent, choosing to speak: "Speak, I'll talk."

Xie An's expression relaxed somewhat, and Hei Sha finally felt the pressure on him lessen considerably, allowing him to speak.

Through Hei Sha's narration, Xie An finally learned the detailed process of the Battle of Yujing Mountain.

It turns out that Emperor Jingtai had begun his scheme many years ago, planting his own hidden agenda in Yujing Mountain. When Bai Yujing returned to Yujing Mountain, he was immediately ambushed and besieged.

However, this level of siege did not threaten Bai Yujing.

However, it affected the confidence of countless people in Yujing Mountain, causing many masters in Yujing Mountain to defect and the mountain to fall apart.

Nantianlou also defected.

Before the great battle even began, both Nantianlou and Yujingshan had already defected and collapsed.

Next, it was just Ye Nantian and Yu Jingshan left to fight Emperor Jingtai.

Even Ye Nantian's two top disciples, Li Chungang and Hua Yunfeng, have defected.

Upon hearing this, Xie An felt a chill run down his spine.

Even Li Chungang and Hua Yunfeng had defected, something he hadn't expected.

While these two could be described as ungrateful beasts, it also reflects the extraordinary skill of Emperor Jingtai, which was far beyond what ordinary people could match.

Even Bai Yujing suffered a hidden loss.

But Xie An understood his master's thoughts: Bai Yujing must have anticipated this, but he didn't take it seriously. After all, defection wouldn't affect the overall situation; the key was the relative strength of Bai Yujing and Emperor Jingtai.

That's the key to victory.

However, what Hei Sha said next truly made Xie An's heart pound.

Xie An initially thought that Emperor Jingtai was a treacherous villain who would continue to use insidious methods to deal with Bai Yujing. However, this was not the case.

Perhaps Emperor Jingtai also realized that he could not win by ordinary means, so he personally went up Yujing Mountain to fight Ye Nantian and Bai Yujing alone.

The moment he made his move, Ye Nantian was dead.

It was the very first instant… an instant. In other words, Ye Nantian was instantly killed. Completely powerless to resist.

Afterwards, Bai Yujing and Emperor Jingtai fought a fierce battle on the top of Yujing Mountain for seven days and seven nights.

They leveled the entire Yujing Mountain.

Finally, Yujing Mountain unleashed the power of the ancient city of Kongsang, causing turmoil for dozens of miles and eclipsing the color of the sky and earth. Meanwhile, Emperor Jingtai summoned the true form of the Martial Arts Ancestor, who ultimately severely injured Bai Yujing.

Bai Yujing fled in a bloody battle, and the Jingtai Emperor gave chase.

No one knew how the pursuit went. About a month later, Emperor Jingtai returned and announced that Bai Yujing was dead.

Upon hearing this, Xie An's dark eyes suddenly lit up with a bright light.

If what Hei Sha said is true, then wouldn't that mean... Master might not be dead?
After all, no one ever saw Bai Yujing being beaten to death by the Jingtai Emperor.

No one saw Bai Yujing's body.

Apart from the Jingtai Emperor, no one knew whether Bai Yujing was dead or alive.

hiss!
Xie An took a deep breath, his heart suddenly racing.

If Master hadn't died...

Xie An suddenly felt extremely excited.

After some deliberation, Xie An felt that there was a high probability that his master was still alive.

In Xie An's memory, Bai Yujing was no ordinary person; he possessed a broad and far-sighted vision, not only focused on the path ahead but also on what lay behind him. Even though Emperor Jingtai had been possessed by the founder of martial arts, killing Bai Yujing would still be no easy task.

Thinking of this, Xie An was in a great mood, but he still didn't show it. Instead, he asked coldly, "Are there people in the capital talking privately about whether Bai Yujing is dead?"

Hei Sha dared not hide the truth, “There are such rumors circulating, but because His Majesty has spoken, no one is discussing it in public.”

Xie An agreed wholeheartedly, "Your Majesty will arrive in Yunzhou City in two days, right?"

Black Demon replied, "Yes."

Xie An was silent.

The brief silence created a very oppressive atmosphere in the room.

Hei Sha was stunned for a long time before saying, "My lord, I have said everything I need to say. Is there anything else you need to instruct me to do?"

Xie An held his teacup and said calmly, "I'd like to borrow something from you."

Black Fiend looked slightly uneasy and asked, "What is it?"

Xie An raised an eyebrow, "I'll borrow your heads for a bit."
