Longevity: After Six Thousand Years, The Diary Was Exposed - Chapter 64 - Chapter 64 – Don’t Panic, Everything Is Still Under Control!

In mere moments, it reached the front of Jiang Wujie and the others, radiating an eerie aura.

Jiang Wujie’s expression changed slightly, and the figures cloaked in hoods behind him also trembled in response.

All eyes were immediately drawn to the crimson orb.

“This is…?”

Jiang Wujie and the others knew exactly what this was, but how did Lei Jue end up like this?

Just as they were puzzled, a strand of Lei Jue’s soul emerged and stared at Jiang Wujie, saying: “Don’t get your hopes up, I’m finished!”

“The Jiujue Sect is finished, and I estimate that the four Dao Slayers won’t have a much better fate!”

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Jiang Wujie’s face darkened, and he asked in confusion: “How could this happen? Four Emperors can’t even take down a Liyue Immortal Dynasty?”

He felt a sudden jolt in his heart—could they still have a trump card?

But even so, with four Emperors involved, it was truly unimaginable that even Lei Jue couldn’t be protected.

Lei Jue fell silent for a moment before sneering. “There’s definitely something you missed. I don’t know where that demoness came from!”

“She’s absurdly strong. I’ve roamed the world for thousands of years, and I couldn’t even withstand one punch!”

He paused, then added, “Ye Qingge hid her cultivation, and with Emperor Zitong, the two of them can resist the combined efforts of the four Dao Slayers.”

“If that demoness had joined the battlefield earlier, we’d all be dead already. My Jiujue Sect is finished! Do what you want!”

Jiang Wujie’s heart sank. A demoness? Is this a backup plan arranged by Lin Feng or Ye Xi?

At this moment, four powerful auras descended from the sky!

It was the four Great Dao Slayers.

“Jiang Wujie, the situation is beyond salvaging. These rebels have already gained real momentum!”

The leader of the Dao Slayers spoke, “We will report to the Venerable and mobilize even more powerful forces to eliminate these rebels!”

Jiang Wujie and the others were unwilling, but at the same time, they heaved a sigh of relief.

On the other side, Yuan Ruoyu and the Pei family’s old ancestor also let out a breath.

The Liyue Immortal Dynasty had held on. That meant they’d achieved their objective—for now, with the four Dao Slayers returning, there was no longer a reason to keep fighting.

Yuan Ruoyu hesitated for a moment before giving a low order:

“Retreat!”

The leaders of the various factions issued orders almost simultaneously, and after a short while, the battle’s intensity subsided. Both sides retreated a thousand feet, maintaining a standoff.

At this moment, Yuan Ruoyu’s only worry was whether Ye Xi had completed his task.

“If not, we’ll just have to keep stalling!”

Just then, Ye Qingge led the Immortal Dynasty’s forces and arrived.

Without her arrival, this front would’ve likely fallen into disarray.

This was part of the unspoken agreement made before the battle: whichever side gained the upper hand would immediately send reinforcements.

The Zitong Emperor and Qingdai were among them.

Yuan Ruoyu had met Emperor Zitong before, but this was the first time she had seen Qingdai.

When they met for the first time, their eyes locked.

Qingdai’s gaze was somewhat cold, a flash of anger crossing her face.

This confused Yuan Ruoyu, as she was sure she hadn’t met her before. Where was this inexplicable hostility coming from?

But with the current situation, it wasn’t the time to ask.

Jiang Wujie ground his teeth and sneered, “This time, you’re just lucky!”

“But you can’t be this lucky forever. Sooner or later, you’ll realize how foolish your actions have been! The opponents you’ll face are far more powerful than you can imagine!”

Ye Qingge slowly stepped forward, giving him a disdainful glance, and said flatly: “Bring whatever tricks you have! Sooner or later, your fate will be just like the Jiujue Sect’s today!”

At this moment, Gongsun Mu and Zhao Shanhe of the Xuan Bird Guards had already led their forces to occupy the Jiujue Sect’s territory.

They would wipe out everyone, ensuring there would be no chance for a comeback.

Jiang Wujie felt a surge of frustration in his heart. After repeatedly losing the An family and Jiujue Sect, what would the higher-ups think?

But the most serious problem wasn’t this—it was that their actions had been exposed, and their future operations would become more difficult.

Although most of the forces in the cultivation world had not participated in this battle, some knew enough to begin preparing in secret.

“Well, let’s wait and see!”

Jiang Wujie snorted coldly, still pinning his hopes on the Dao Slayers.

If they fought with everything they had, they might still have a chance.

The two sides continued to face off for a moment.

At this point, a figure in red robes, wearing a mask, flew from the distance, speaking in a low voice.

“Ye Xi sent me—he says it’s done. We can retreat now.”

A smile spread across Yuan Ruoyu’s face, and the heavy stone in her heart finally dropped.

She didn’t know what exactly Ye Xi had gone to do—but it definitely wasn’t something simple. It had to be extremely dangerous.

He was Lin Feng’s disciple, and of course Yuan Ruoyu and the others didn’t want anything to happen to him.

Now, with this outcome, it seemed to be the best possible result.

The Liyue Immortal Dynasty had been saved, and Ye Xi had completed what he set out to do.

At the same time, Yuan Ruoyu had once again witnessed the terrifying might of her opponent—being able to mobilize eight Great Emperors at the drop of a hat.

If it hadn’t been for Lin Feng’s earlier instructions, she, Ye Qingge, and the Ancestor of the Pei family would never have concealed their true cultivation levels.

Because of that, the enemy had underestimated their strength. Otherwise, they might not have walked away with their lives.

Behind Jiang Wujie, one of the cloaked figures stared at the masked woman in red, their gaze tinged with confusion.

They stared blankly for a moment, but didn’t dare to believe it.

Hua Wuwei thought inwardly, Impossible. Hongyi is dead. How could she be here?

Even if she’s alive, there’s no way she would betray the family!

Meanwhile, Yuan Ruoyu and the others exchanged glances, and, as if by unspoken agreement, each began to withdraw.

The disciples and clansmen of the Primordial Holy Land and the Pei family were the first to leave.

Ye Qingge looked at Yuan Ruoyu. The atmosphere between them was slightly tense, but after all, they had fought side by side in this battle.

They each gave a slight nod, which counted as a greeting of sorts.

Then Ye Qingge led the Liyue Immortal Dynasty’s forces in retreat. Having just destroyed the Jiujue Sect, she still had much to do in terms of cleanup and stabilization.

Of course, the Jiujue Sect was not something Liyue Immortal Dynasty could monopolize—other powers also had a share in the spoils.

Ye Qingge suddenly paused mid-turn, looked at Qingdai, and said: “This time, we owe you much. Would you be willing to visit my Liyue Immortal Dynasty? I will personally see to it that your kindness is repaid in full.”

Qingdai hesitated. She had come here to look for Lin Feng.

Now, she truly had nowhere else to go.

Besides, Ye Qingge clearly had a deep relationship with Lin Feng. Staying close to her might help her gather some useful information.

With that thought, she smiled and accepted the invitation.

“Very well. I’ll come visit for a few days.”

Qingdai said with a smile, though her eyes subtly flicked toward Yuan Ruoyu.

Which left the latter even more confused.

Yuan Ruoyu frowned, but said nothing. She led the disciples of the Jade Pool Holy Land away.

The war was over.

But in truth, it was just the beginning. Jiang Wujie and the powers behind him had failed to achieve their goals this time. There was no doubt they would strike again.

From now on, the conflict between the two sides would only grow fiercer—until one side perished.

Yuan Ruoyu took a deep breath and thought to herself: With our current strength, we’re still far from enough. We must unite more forces from the cultivation world. Only together can we stand a chance!

Hopefully, Lin Feng has more contingencies up his sleeve…

…

Jiang family territory.

Inside the secret realm, the atmosphere was heavy and oppressive.

Jiang Wujie clenched his jaw, his expression dark and grim. He hadn’t imagined that a battle he thought was in the bag would end like this.

For a moment, even the gathered figures present struggled to process the outcome.

Eight Dao Slaying Elders had been deployed, yet they still failed to destroy the Liyue Immortal Dynasty. What did that say?

If those above them decided to hold them accountable, none of them would escape punishment.

“Hoo…”

After a long while, Jiang Wujie finally exhaled and said slowly:

“This failure was because we underestimated Yuan Ruoyu and Ye Qingge’s true strength.”

“They hid it well… very well.”

“To know your enemy and know yourself is to win every battle. Next time, I won’t make this mistake again.”

He paused for a moment, then added, “That said, everything is still within control…”

A scarlet bead was suspended in the air, and it began to shake violently and turbulently after hearing these words.

Lei Jue nearly flew into a rage, his soul almost dissipating out of sheer anger.

Jiang Wujie’s expression darkened. “Daoist Lei, do you have a different opinion?”

Lei Jue: “…”

After a long pause, a voice emerged from within the crimson bead.

“Let’s focus on what we’re doing next, shall we?”

Jiang Wujie withdrew his gaze and said in a comforting tone, “Don’t worry. For families and factions like ours, what’s the most important thing?”

“As long as the Desolate Mountain Emperor Prison remains intact, everything else is minor.”

At these words, the others all nodded.

Guarding the Desolate Mountain Emperor Prison was their true value. As long as they held that post, the higher-ups wouldn’t touch them lightly.

Within the crimson bead, Lei Jue’s soul also breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Once I possess a Great Emperor’s physical body and refine the exotic yuan, not only will my cultivation remain intact—it’ll improve even further!”

Of course, that came with a cost…

From now on, his life and death would rest entirely on a single thought from the Heavenly Venerables.

No matter how powerful he became.

But Lei Jue could no longer afford to care. He had no retreat left.

Jiang Wujie continued, “Enough. Dismissed, everyone. A temporary setback is nothing.”

“Don’t panic. I can still handle it. The advantage is still on our side!”

However—just then—

A Jiang clan elder burst in, his face full of panic as he looked at Jiang Wujie.
