Peerless War God

“That’s right. The Imperial Advisor is a long-lived powerhouse that everyone looks up to. His lifespan is long, how can a low-level cultivator like me be able to fathom it?”    

“I think it’s a little difficult. The Imperial Advisor personally destroyed the Warlord’s Residence and formed a death feud with the Warlord. It won’t be long before the Warlord comes to seek revenge.”    

“Bah, what Warlord? That’s just a traitorous thief. He’s already been wanted by His Majesty. If these words were to reach Lord Gu Feng’s ears, you’d be dead for sure.”    

“Ah~ Big Brother and the others are a little harsh with their words. Don’t speak nonsense. I was just blabbering.”    

“Don’t worry, we won’t betray you. What are you afraid of?”    

Outside the War Sky City, within the military camp, there were all sorts of rumors and discussions.    

Atop the city gate, within an extremely high tower, there was a formation sealing it. The outside world couldn’t see anything clearly.    

Gu Lan Yue sat on the ground, holding the Scarlet Heaven Sword with both hands. She infused her power into it, merging it with her own strength.    

Beside her, Gu Feng held a wine gourd and drank from it.    

With a gulp, he drank another mouthful of wine and said, “Sis, you said that the captain has been in seclusion for a hundred years, right?”    

“Ninety-two years and three months.” Gu Lan Yue’s eyes didn’t open as she said indifferently.    

Gu Feng’s brows twitched. He was a little surprised. “Wow, you remember it so clearly? It can’t be that you have some improper thoughts towards the captain, right? That’s true. A man as outstanding as the captain will always attract a lot of women, like moths flying into the fire.”    

Halfway through his words, he suddenly felt a chill in his body. It was as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and he swallowed hard.    

He tilted his head slightly and met Gu Lanyue's ice-cold eyes. They were cold and filled with killing intent.    

Gu Feng was so scared that his neck shrank. "Sis, I was just joking. Don't be angry."    

Gu Lanyue let out a long breath and said coldly, "If it wasn't for the fact that you are my brother, I would have killed you with a sword."    

Gu Feng laughed dryly. "I was just joking. Is there a need to be so angry?"    

Gu Lanyue snorted coldly and was too lazy to explain anything.    

Although the captain was outstanding, there was no way for him to be with him. After all, Chen Xiao had three wives, and they had a good relationship. Because of this, Gu Lanyue had long since given up on this thought. She wholeheartedly cultivated to increase her own strength.    

After a pause, Gu Feng asked again, "Do you think Li Zhan will come to seek revenge? It's been ninety-two years, and there is no news at all. He most likely gave up."    

Hearing this, Gu Lanyue frowned and slowly relaxed.    

Her gaze was distant as she swept across the entire Heavenwar City, lost in thought.    

Ninety-two years ago, almost in one day, the Heavenwar City was broken through, and the Warlord's Mansion was annihilated. Countless lives were lost, and countless people were slaughtered. A great purge was carried out against the remaining forces of Li Zhan, and it was incomparably bloody.    

During that change, Li Zhan did not appear.    

After more than ninety years, the battered Heaven Battling City had already recovered its vitality and prospered again. It was even more prosperous than before, and it was even more lively.    

This feeling was as if the previous annihilation had never happened, and it made people feel a little absent-minded.    

However, Gu Lan Yue knew better than anyone else that Li Zhan Yin had not made a move yet. He must have a great plan. Once he made a move, it would be a thunderous killing move, a terrifying strike that would put Chen Xiao to death.    

Just thinking about it made people shudder.    

One must know that being targeted by a Three Tribulations Longevity Realm expert was definitely not a good thing.    

Gu Lan Yue shook her head, "No, it won't happen. Li Zhan Yin will definitely seek revenge, but I don't know when. We have to be careful."    

"Got it, Sis. You've said this for decades. Sigh." Gu Feng sighed.    

"It's better to be prepared."    

"That's right, but if this goes on, it's not a solution. There is only the saying that one can be a thief for a thousand days, but how can one defend against a thief for a thousand days?" Gu Feng complained.    

Hearing that, Gu Lan Yue's gaze darkened, and she also became a little worried.    

Gu Feng's words were reasonable. If this continued, it would not be a solution.    

The enemy was in the dark, while I was in the light. It was too disadvantageous.    

"When the army comes, we will block it. It's useless to think about it. We should think more about how to increase our strength."    

Gu Lan Yue said indifferently.    

Gu Feng smiled helplessly, "That's right, let's just take it one step at a time."    

But at this moment, a loud bark startled the two of them.    

"Woof, woof, woof ~"    

Not far away on the city wall, Hei Zi, who was lying on the corner of the wall, suddenly raised his head and looked up into the air, shouting anxiously. His shouts became more and more urgent.    

Inside the house, Gu Lanyue and Gu Feng looked at each other in surprise.    

"Hey, Hei Zi is shouting?" Gu Feng was startled for a moment and did not react in time.    

Gu Lanyue's heart trembled, and she did not dare to be careless, "Something's wrong. Let's go out and take a look."    

Before Chen Xiao went into closed door cultivation, he had specially left Hei Zi behind to be his helper, just in case.    

Once Li Zhan came to seek revenge, with the Hellhound's alertness, it would definitely sense it at the first moment.    

As a result, the possibility of being ambushed would be reduced.    

Thinking of this possibility, Gu Lanyue's heart sank, and she began to worry.    

"Alright."    

Immediately, the two of them flashed and appeared on the city wall. They glanced at Hei Zi, who was shouting, and looked at the air with uneasy expressions.    

Not only them, even the garrison soldiers on the city wall were alarmed.    

"What's going on? What happened?"    

"What's wrong with Hei Zi? Is he crazy? Why is he shouting so loudly?"    

"What do you know? Hei Zi is a Hellhound, and his sense of smell is extremely sharp. His sense of danger is much stronger than our human race. He must have discovered something unusual, that's why he is shouting."    

“Makes sense.”    

The soldiers discussed among themselves.    

Gu Lanyue’s gaze turned cold as she ordered, “Activate the city-guarding formation and prepare to meet the enemy.”    

Hearing this, the soldiers looked at each other in dismay. They were a little surprised, but they did not hesitate and immediately went to carry out the order.    

“Yes.”    

“Yes.”    

“Activate the formation, activate the formation.”    

Following Gu Lanyue’s order, the city-guarding formation was activated. A dark yellow light surged out from the ground and enveloped the entire Heaven Battling City. It was like an indestructible turtle shell, and its defensive power was astonishing.    

Almost at the same time the formation was activated, a fiery red light appeared in the horizon. It was as bright as the sun, and it rapidly descended to attack Heaven Battling City.    

Seeing this, Gu Feng clenched his fists. “As expected, they really came. Hmph, Li Zhan, we’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”    

For some reason, Li Zhan’s attack was so dangerous, but he heaved a sigh of relief.    

It made sense. The enemy hiding in the dark was much more dangerous than the enemy on the surface.    

Gu Lanyue’s brows sunk as she shouted, “Activate the formation, and block this attack.”    

“Yes.”    

“Understood.”    

At this moment, everyone raised their heads and clearly saw what the attack was. It was actually a huge meteorite that was nearly ten thousand feet in size. It dragged a trail of flames as it descended like a calamity.    

At this moment, countless cultivators in Heaven Battling City raised their heads and fear appeared on their faces.    

"Finally here."    

At the same time, Chen Xiao, who was in the barrier, stood up and raised his head to look up.
