Longevity: Starting as a Sect Servant

Chapter 888: Chapter 391: Eradicating the Spies

Li An recovered quickly, and by the second day, he couldn’t wait to leave the valley, not even bothering to say goodbye to Gu Xuening.

After leaving the valley, he headed straight out of Qingyuan Mountain.

He first took a stroll around a small town at the foot of the mountain, and after confirming that Gu Xuening hadn’t followed him, he changed his appearance and life aura, hiding in a mountain entrance not far from the mountain gate.

Although he no longer had a Life Seed, the black-and-white grindstone within him also had the miraculous effect of concealing his aura. He dug a hole and buried himself in the ground, merging into the earth and shutting off his Divine Sense, relying purely on his hearing and other instincts to perceive the external situation.

His purpose here was to kill!

According to Li An’s speculation, once Zhao Yulu obtained the item from Gu Xuening, she would surely find a way to descend the mountain and pass the item and information to her sect in the New Celestial Court.

Her sect belongs to the lineage of Hongbo Fairy, and Li An certainly didn’t want to deal with these old acquaintances like Hongbo Fairy at this moment.

So, the best solution was to kill Zhao Yulu!

And, it had to be done before she could transmit the information.

Moreover, to avoid exposing herself, Zhao Yulu had been sticking close to other talents these past few days, enjoying the pills Cen Qianlian had refined anew to nourish their bodies, and once digested, she would certainly seek an opportunity to act.

Or let other spies come out to send messages.

After all, nobody knew how many spies Hongbo Fairy’s lineage actually had within Qingyuan Mountain.

However, Li An speculated that these spies wouldn’t have high cultivation; the higher the cultivation, the more noticeable, and it’s exceedingly difficult to conceal for those of Celestial Immortal Level or higher!

Moreover, it should have been since the battle on Taiji Mountain four thousand years ago, when the New Celestial Court was established, that Evergreen Immortal Venerable allowed the true Life Nourishing Immortal Skill to spread, meaning apart from Evergreen Immortal Venerable, Hongbo Fairy, Purple Fairy, and a few others, the other cultivators wouldn’t have been practicing the Life Nourishing Immortal Skill for more than four thousand years.

This timeframe is utterly insufficient to cultivate the Life Nourishing Immortal Skill to the Celestial Immortal or above realm.

Since all spies were at most Profound Immortal level, Li An was naturally quite confident and undeterred.

He waited here, seemingly merging entirely with the earth, and though buried deep underground, nothing in the surrounding thousands of miles could escape his perception.

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.

On this day, Li An finally felt a stir in his heart, sensing Zhao Yulu’s aura at last!

Zhao Yulu descended the mountain with another two men and a woman, and after exiting the mountain gate, she and one of the men left together, while the other man and woman dispersed.

"Two spies!"

Li An felt a slight chill in his heart; the female cultivator accompanying Zhao Yulu down the mountain turned out to be just like Zhao Yulu.

Zhao Yulu was indeed cautious, descending the mountain with another spy so that if someone was truly watching secretly, it was impossible to tell which one was transmitting the message.

Moreover, they likely had unique Secret Techniques connecting them, so if one encountered trouble, the other would mostly become aware as well.

But Li An only sneered coldly, silently trailing behind the single departing female.

That woman, after leaving the small town at the foot of the mountain, quickly tried to leave.

But, as she had just gone a hundred miles, she suddenly felt a tremor in the surrounding void, her face changed dramatically in an instant, light emanated from her body, and her protective magical artifact had already sensed the disturbance, but a giant hand reached out abruptly, causing the woman to let out a tragic scream, immediately captured by Li An!

She had no chance to react before her body felt a sudden stiffness, forcibly controlled.

Her eyes were brimming with terror because to render her so utterly powerless, the one acting must at least be a Golden Immortal.

Had she really been targeted by a Golden Immortal powerhouse? How could this be possible...

Was she exposed?

Yet, while her thoughts were racing, Li An already employed the Immortal Celestial Demon Skill, demonic qi surged forth, refining her Primordial Spirit into a puppet!

"Transmitting messages simultaneously by two!"

"However, regarding their purpose for coming here, they’ve been subjected to a Daluo-level Restriction, entirely unknowable... Was Hongbo Fairy herself behind it?"

No wonder not even the entrance checks at Qingyuan Mountain detected any issues.

Taking her along, Li An swiftly pursued Zhao Yulu.

The other’s speed was quick, but under Li An’s full pursuit, he soon tracked her down, both headed towards the "Yuan Ye Mountain Range" twenty thousand miles away from Qingyuan Mountain, where some special Spirit Beasts grew, holding some value for cultivators who hadn’t yet become immortals.

Li An found them effortlessly.

Before a waterfall, in a pool, the shameless pair were engaging unabashedly.

Li An did not disturb them, observing the surroundings before quietly taking out some pre-refined array flags, arranging them covertly across the surrounding woods.

Not long after, the shameless pair concluded their act, stepping out of the waterfall nearby, Li An directly triggered the Immortal-level array!

Boom!

The great array descended, and the man who just enjoyed worldly pleasures became panic-stricken; his cultivation being less than an Immortal, some magical artifacts on him attempted to block but were swept away instantly, exploding into a burst of blood mist!

But Zhao Yulu’s face changed drastically, hesitated for a moment, then immediately unleashed her Immortal Cultivation, with Profound Immortal-level cultivation power erupting forth.
