Wu Shattered Star River

#2426 - Chapter 2426: Longxu Mountain

Li Jianfei really didn't know Jiang Han's identity. His subordinates only reported that two Heavenly Emperors from the Tianlei Army had arrived, without specifying Jiang Han's details.

The Tianlei Tribe has been somewhat unwelcome by major forces in recent years because Lei Nishang is close to the Second Lord, and the Second Lord has now been expelled, essentially a half-traitor.

Lei Nishang herself doesn't have a good relationship with the various Lords, so she is naturally ostracized.

Although Bai Yujing hasn't unified the entire Winter Territory, it is the uncrowned king in the Winter Territory, and all major forces have intricate connections with Bai Yujing.

For example, the Zixia Sect and the Lu family have a very good relationship. It can even be said that the Zixia Sect is a major force within the Lu family's faction.

In the Winter Territory, many major forces are actually backed by some Lords. Even if they are not subordinate, they are at least allies, sharing honor and disgrace, and advancing and retreating together.

Lu Xun is Lu Yu's younger sister, a direct descendant of the Lu family. Although his talent isn't particularly strong and he's not a leading figure in the younger generation of the Lu family, his status is still not low.

That's why he was sitting in the first seat on the left today, the seat reserved for the most honored guest.

Lu Xun said that Jiang Han was the Lu family's benefactor and that Liu Fangfei had instructed them to treat Jiang Han with courtesy. How could the guests present remain seated? How could Li Jianfei not be shocked?

Seeing the instant change in attitude of everyone present, Jiang Han touched his nose but didn't take it too seriously.

He had encountered this kind of thing many times. He smiled and said to Lu Xun, "Young Master Lu, you're exaggerating. I can just sit over there."

Jiang Han pointed to a seat near the door. Li Jianfei's face showed embarrassment, and he quickly walked over, cupping his fist at Jiang Han and saying, "Brother Jiang, you're making me lose face. I really didn't know Brother Jiang's identity before. Brother Jiang, how about this? I'll drink three jars of wine to atone for my previous impoliteness, okay?"

After speaking, Li Jianfei picked up a jar of wine from the table and drank it down in large gulps, picking up another jar after finishing the first.

Jiang Han smiled and reached out to hold Li Jianfei's hand, saying, "Young Sect Master, you have a great capacity for alcohol. How about we drink the rest of the wine slowly?"

Jiang Han still needed to gather information about Ye Wanqiu from the Zixiao Sect, so he naturally couldn't offend them to death. His words immediately eased the atmosphere in the hall.

Lu Xun asked a Lu family disciple sitting next to him to move to the back. After Jiang Han took his seat, Li Jianfei and Lu Xun immediately drank several cups with Jiang Han. The young masters from various major families toasted him one after another, and the atmosphere in the hall quickly returned to harmony.

"Everyone, you might not know!"

Lu Xun said after drinking another cup with Jiang Han, "Jiang Han went on a killing spree in the Heavenly Domain some time ago. Dozens of Heavenly Emperors died directly or indirectly at his hands. In the final battle, even the Dao Ancestor realm expert from the Tianlin Tribe and City Lord Ding were alarmed, and a Dao Ancestor realm battle almost broke out."

"Really?"

"Is Fellow Daoist Jiang so strong?"

"Killed dozens of Heavenly Emperors?"

"I've heard about this. I heard that Brother Jiang possesses an undying body, impossible to kill no matter what. He can also release a powerful chill that can instantly freeze Heavenly Emperors, making it easy to kill them."

"Yes, I've also heard about it!"

The hall became lively, and many young masters from major families looked at Jiang Han with reverence.

Although Jiang Han belonged to the Tianlei Army, being able to kill so many experts from the Central Domain in the Heavenly Domain was enough to earn respect. The Tianlin Tribe was the mortal enemy of all Eastern Domain citizens.

The banquet lasted until midnight. Li Jianfei arranged a luxurious castle for Jiang Han and warmly invited him to stay for a while.

The next day, Li Jianfei held a small banquet, attended only by Lu Xun and three top young masters from the Zixia Sect.

The reason Jiang Han stayed here was to inquire about Ye Wanqiu from Li Jianfei. After the banquet, he spoke to Li Jianfei and Lu Xun alone.

After hearing this, Li Jianfei immediately summoned the head of the Zixia Sect's intelligence hall and ordered him to do his best to find out about Ye Wanqiu's whereabouts.

Yu Qi brought the two war slaves up, and Jiang Han also restored their freedom.

Unsurprisingly, both war slaves chose to stay. They were unfamiliar with the Winter Territory, and their combat strength was too low, making it easy for them to die. They might not have a good life in other forces, so it was more comfortable to stay with Jiang Han.

The two war slaves had been lurking nearby but hadn't waited for Ye Wanqiu.

Jiang Han stayed in Zixia Mountain for five days. During these days, Li Jianfei and Lu Xun either took him sightseeing or gathered a group of young masters and ladies to eat and drink with him.

On the sixth day, the intelligence hall returned with news.

They hadn't found Ye Wanqiu, but they had gathered some information. During the time Jiang Han left Bloodmoon Sea, a female Saint Ruler passed by nearby and had a conflict with a second-rate sect in the south.

She injured two Heavenly Emperors and flew west, then there was no further news.

"Flew west?"

Jiang Han frowned. This kind of information was almost useless. Moreover, two years had passed. What clues could be found now?

But at least it proved one thing: Ye Wanqiu shouldn't have been chased by the Demon Moon Sect's experts. Could she have encountered something? Or been trapped somewhere?

"Forget it, let's go to Mount Changxu first!"

Jiang Han sighed. If the Tianlei Tribe and Bai Yujing's intelligence hall couldn't find any news, relying on the Zixia Sect probably wouldn't work either. He should just complete the mission first.

Jiang Han bid farewell to Li Jianfei and Lu Xun, who warmly tried to persuade him to stay. Upon learning that Jiang Han was going to carry out a mission, Li Jianfei said that Jiang Han could come back and stay for a while when he returned. Additionally, he would continue to help inquire about Ye Wanqiu's whereabouts.

Jiang Han put Lao Deng and Yu Qi into the Heavenly Beast Cauldron and then used Star Flash to teleport away.

He didn't tell Li Jianfei and Lu Xun where he was going, fearing that the Demon Moon Sect's Grand Guardian would come after him.

Mount Changxu wasn't far from here, only two days' journey by flight for Jiang Han. Using Star Flash would be even faster, arriving outside Mount Changxu in just half a day.

This mountain was very large, a mountain range, and it was constantly infested with many long-haired monsters, impossible to completely eliminate.

The long-haired monsters had one characteristic: their offspring would gestate under glaciers and only emerge after reaching adulthood.

So even if all the long-haired monsters above were killed, many more would appear after a period of time.

Moreover, the long hair on the long-haired monsters was a good spiritual material. The long-haired monsters didn't have much intelligence, so they were actually good training targets. Bai Yujing and the major forces hadn't thought about completely exterminating the long-haired monsters.

Once there were too many long-haired monsters in certain areas, causing disasters, they would mobilize experts and armies to eliminate them.

Arriving near Mount Changxu, Jiang Han released Yu Qi and Wan Suiyun in three different directions.

He had them lie in wait, giving them each a few drops of essence blood. This was Jiang Han leaving himself a way out, so he could reconstruct his body outside the mountain at any time.

"Let's go!"

After arranging everything, Jiang Han also used the divination plate to calculate, and there was no sign of great misfortune.

He led Lao Deng towards Mount Changxu. Jiang Han didn't dare to fly directly into the air above Mount Changxu, as that would attract all four Heavenly Emperor-level long-haired monsters. He planned to clear the area little by little with Lao Deng, eliminating most of the long-haired monsters here.

"Oooooooo~"

Not long after entering the mountain, strange howls rang out in the mountain, and then countless long-haired monsters surged towards the two.
