Longevity: After Six Thousand Years, The Diary Was Exposed - Chapter 49 - Chapter 49 – Heh Heh! Launching a Sneak Attack, My Sword Points at the Empress!

In the Central Region, Eastern Xuan Domain.

At the border between the Liyue Immortal Dynasty and the Jiujue Sect, within the Tianjue Mountain Range.

Jiujue Sect camp.

An old man dressed in a gray robe, with a gaunt face, exuded a powerful aura. He spoke in a deep voice:

“The Liyue Immortal Dynasty, under Ye Qingge’s rule…”

“They have always been arrogant and domineering, looking down on everyone, and have humiliated my Jiujue Sect repeatedly, seizing our spiritual veins and mining stones!”

The old man, named Du Jiuyou, was an elder of the Jiujue Sect.

His cultivation was at the mid-stage of the Integration Realm, and he was also proficient in poison, making him a fierce opponent in battle.

This time, Lei Jue had sent him personally to ensure a great victory and a successful opening battle.

Although both sides had stationed many elite forces in the Tianjue Mountain Range, the highest cultivation level among the stationed cultivators was only at the Void Refining Realm.

Lei Jue believed that their sudden surprise attack, combined with their thorough preparation, would ensure that the Liyue Immortal Dynasty suffered a great loss!

It would be best if they could capture or destroy the opponent’s spiritual veins and mines.

Next, intense fighting would erupt between both sides.

With that, the Jiang family and the Zuo family, along with other allies, could then join in the fray.

Since everyone was about to completely tear the mask off, there was no need to hold back any longer.

Inside the camp.

The Jiujue Sect disciples stationed there were initially a little surprised—why had the sect suddenly decided to target the Liyue Immortal Dynasty?

This was no small matter.

The overall strength of the Liyue Immortal Dynasty was much stronger than the Jiujue Sect. In past conflicts, they had often been on the losing side!

Why were they suddenly preparing for full-scale war?

Many were still confused, but when they saw Elder Du Jiuyou had come personally, they believed that this time, a major operation was indeed about to unfold.

Du Jiuyou paused for a moment before speaking in a deep voice:

“Don’t worry, I’m just here to make early preparations. Soon, a large number of elite disciples from the sect will be arriving!”

“This time, we will definitely drive the Liyue Immortal Dynasty out and take back the spiritual veins that belong to us!”

He was aware of the internal plans, knowing that the Jiang family and other ancient clans would act together, which gave him confidence.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone smiled.

They quickly expressed their approval, reassured that with more elite forces coming, there was nothing to fear.

“Good! We will all follow Elder Du’s orders!”

“Drive the Liyue Immortal Dynasty out, and we’ll take over the spiritual veins and mines here!”

“It’s time for revenge!”

“For hundreds of years, how many brothers have we lost to the Liyue Immortal Dynasty?”

“This time, we’ll wash away our past shame!”

The four main hallmasters of the Jiujue Sect stationed at the camp spoke with righteous indignation.

However, their eyes gleamed with greed.

How many resources had the Liyue Immortal Dynasty controlled in the Tianjue Mountain Range? If they could really drive them out, it would all belong to them!

Although most of it would be turned over to the sect, even the scraps would be enough for them to profit greatly.

In the cultivation world, fighting and killing, competing for resources, was the norm.

Du Jiuyou observed their expressions with satisfaction, nodding and saying coldly:

“Very well!”

“Tomorrow, the four of you, as the leaders, will clear out their defensive posts.”

He paused for a moment before continuing, “At that time, I’ll personally lead the elite forces to launch a surprise attack. With them caught off guard, we’ll annihilate them, leaving no survivors. They will be left crying and begging!”

The four hallmasters exchanged glances and nodded fiercely.

They had been stationed here for many years.

They knew the Liyue Immortal Dynasty’s defense points very well, so having them lead the vanguard was indeed a good choice.

Moreover, this was a great opportunity to make meritorious deeds!

The four hallmasters almost simultaneously said, “We will follow Elder Du’s orders!”

…

Meanwhile, almost at the same time.

On the other side of the Tianjue Mountain Range, within the territory controlled by the Liyue Immortal Dynasty.

At this moment.

Inside a palace carved into the mountain, the eight generals of the Liyue Immortal Dynasty were gathered.

Sitting at the top was a woman dressed in palace attire.

All eight generals had cultivation at the early stage of the Void Refining Realm, and after years of guarding the Tianjue Mountain Range and fighting against beasts, each one was a fierce character.

But now, in the presence of this palace-dressed woman, they seemed like mice in front of a cat—none of them dared breathe too loudly.

They all knew who she was: one of the Empress’s most trusted confidantes.

At the same time, she was also the leader of the Xuan Ying Guards, who were responsible for administering punishment. The punishments she developed were feared across the entire Immortal Dynasty.

With names like “Immortal Bone Offering,” “Fairy Ascends to Heaven,” and “Ten Thousand Immortals’ Ecstasy”…

Poetic as they sounded—anyone who had witnessed them in action knew the truth.

Forget cultivators—even immortals wouldn’t last a breath under her hand.

In the silence, the woman in palace attire suddenly raised her eyes and asked with a charming voice, “How is the plan progressing?”

Immediately, one of the generals respectfully replied:

“Commander, everything has been prepared.”

“According to your orders, all the outposts have been set up with formations, and sufficient spirit stones and talismans have been prepared.”

The Xuan Ying Guards’ commander nodded slightly and smiled. “Good! Now, you may go and continue your work. We’re just waiting for them to take the bait…”

As she finished speaking, the eight generals fell into silence.

Then, one of them couldn’t help but ask, “Commander, are you sure the Jiujue Sect will strike against us?”

Although both sides had often clashed, there had been no large-scale battles in the past decade or so.

A few days ago, after Ye Qingge returned from Cangwu Mountain, she issued orders to mobilize many elite guards, significantly strengthening the defenses of the Tianjue Mountain Range.

Now, even the commander of the Xuan Ying Guards had personally arrived. To these generals, this seemed exaggerated.

Wei Lan was after all, a late-stage Integration Realm cultivator, close to breaking through to the Mahayana stage.

For such a powerful figure to be deployed in a small place like the Tianjue Mountain Range seemed like overkill.

These actions initially made the eight generals anxious, wondering if the Empress was dissatisfied with them.

Only now did they understand—it was all part of the plan to deal with the Jiujue Sect.

Wei Lan raised her eyes and glanced at them, her voice calm.

“Since the Empress has given the order, there must be her reasoning behind it. We only need to carry it out beautifully.”

“Do you understand?”

The eight generals’ faces darkened, and they quickly said, “Understood, we will go to guard the outposts!”

“Arrange for all our elites to be ready for action!”

Wei Lan waved her hand. “Go ahead.”

As the sun rose and set, a day passed quietly amidst both sides’ tense preparations.

Morning.

In the forest, the thick fog had not yet dispersed.

But within the Jiujue Sect’s camp, a murderous aura filled the air, with everyone gearing up for action.

The four hallmasters gathered their elites.

All stood in a valley, their spirits high and filled with battle intent.

“After all this time fighting the Liyue Immortal Dynasty, today we can finally settle the score!”

Among the Jiujue Sect disciples, many harbored deep resentment toward the Liyue Immortal Dynasty.

After all, both sides had been in constant conflict, and the grudges had accumulated over the years.

Both sides had lost comrades and loved ones to each other’s hands. Now, they could finally vent their anger.

Du Jiuyou’s cold gaze swept across the crowd as he spoke in a low voice, “Remember, swift and decisive. Eliminate them as quickly as possible!”

“We’re launching a surprise attack!”

“We must end the battle before they even realize it. Be ruthless! Don’t worry about the consequences!”

A bloodthirsty smile appeared on Du Jiuyou’s face. “The sect leader has said that the Tianjue Mountain Range is just the beginning. This time, we will completely destroy the Liyue Immortal Dynasty!”

“Even the Empress, Ye Qingge, will become our plaything!”

“Hehehe…”

Upon hearing these words, everyone’s hearts surged with excitement, their blood boiling.

Ye Qingge, whether it was her talent, status, or beauty, was an unparalleled figure in the cultivation world.

If they could capture her…

Just thinking about it made their blood race, impossible to resist. It was simply too alluring.

Du Jiuyou took a deep breath and issued the final command, shouting, “Go, carve a bloody path for us!”

“Understood!”

A loud, earth-shattering voice echoed across the mountains.

In the next moment, powerful auras erupted, and the air trembled with the shockwaves of magical energy.

The four hallmasters of the Jiujue Sect were the first to soar into the sky, transforming into streaks of light as they raced toward the distance.

They, too, were cultivators at the Void Refining Realm.

The rest of the disciples quickly followed, their momentum overwhelming, like a swarm of locusts descending toward the Liyue Immortal Dynasty.

Their goal was clear:

Kill everyone, seize all the resources, and leave no survivors!
