Sacred Body of the Ancients from the Beginning

After listening to Bai Mei’Er’s words, Ao Luan also went to find Long Aotian.

Of course, she wasn’t so direct as to question him outright.

Instead, she approached the subject indirectly.

Sure enough, when Princess Long Ji was mentioned, Long Aotian’s attitude was noticeably different.

As a woman’s intuition would have it, Ao Luan knew that Princess Long Ji indeed held the highest position in Long Aotian’s heart.

And she, at the most, was nothing more than a transient beauty to Long Aotian.

After the conversation, Ao Luan returned to the cave.

Bai Mei’Er was still standing at the cave entrance.

”So, do you believe what I said now?” Bai Mei’Er asked with a sly smile.

”Why are you telling me all of this?” Ao Luan looked directly at Bai Mei’Er, her tone cold.

”If there were no Princess Long Ji, wouldn’t you have a chance to become the most important person to Brother Ao Tian?” Bai Mei’Er replied.

”So, you’re saying I should kill that Princess Long Ji?” Ao Luan’s beautiful eyes shot out a cold gleam.

”What’s wrong with that?” Bai Mei’Er said.

”So, that’s your plan.” Ao Luan seemed to see through Bai Mei’Er’s thoughts.

Bai Mei’Er was not scared at all, shrugging slightly, ”I admit, I’m also very jealous of Princess Long Ji, wanting her dead. Why should she occupy Brother Ao Tian’s heart?”

”Of course, I have no grand ambitions; being a concubine is enough for me. But what about you? You’re a noble lady of the Dragon-man Race. Are you willing to be like me?”

Hearing Bai Mei’Er’s candid words, Ao Luan fell into deep thought.

Indeed, Bai Mei’Er’s motive seemed just that.

”If I make a move and Young Master Long finds out, wouldn’t he hate me even more?” Ao Luan said.

”It’s simple. You Dragon-man Race members are highly esteemed in the Immortal Ancient World; just command a few elite Celestial Pride from the Immortal Ancient Races to lure Princess Long Ji into a killing array. Wouldn’t killing her be a piece of cake?”

”If I don’t tell, and you don’t tell, who would know Princess Long Ji was killed by someone you sent?”

It must be said, Bai Mei’Er’s plan was almost flawless.

Although Princess Long Ji is strong, the Celestial Pride of the Immortal Ancient Races are nothing to scoff at either.

Due to the Immortal Ancient environment, the Celestial Pride of the Immortal Ancient Races generally possessed a higher realm and strength compared to those from the outside.

Common Celestial Pride from the Immortal Realm truly aren’t a match for those from the Immortal Ancient Races.

Not to mention the support of a killing array, eliminating Princess Long Ji quietly is not an impossible task.

”You go through so much trouble just to make me kill Princess Long Ji?” Ao Luan still felt uneasy, but couldn’t pinpoint why.

Because Bai Mei’Er had indeed been honest about her goal: she wanted Princess Long Ji dead.

And she had plenty of reasons and grounds for it.

”I’m merely suggesting it, whether you do it or not is up to you. Just don’t be sad when you see Brother Ao Tian pursuing Princess Long Ji later on,” Bai Mei’Er said nonchalantly.

Ao Luan’s beautiful eyes flickered uncertainly.

Truthfully, although she had only spent a few days with Long Aotian.

Ao Luan had certainly fallen deeply in love with Long Aotian.

When fate arrives, it cannot be stopped.

Moreover, Ao Luan was sure that Long Aotian also harbored feelings for her.

At the thought of Long Aotian possibly pursuing Princess Long Ji in the future, Ao Luan felt an ache in her heart.

As the proud maiden of the Dragon-man Race, her possessiveness was naturally strong.

Ao Luan had never expected Long Aotian to only like her.

But at the very least, Ao Luan wanted to be the person who mattered most to Long Aotian.

As for Princess Long Ji, she clearly could not exist.

In some ways, this was quite similar to palace intrigue.

Those concubines would try every trick in the book to harm other concubines to gain the emperor’s favor.

”Alright, I understand, but let’s agree in advance: this is our secret. If you leak it, I will not only tell Young Master Long that it was your suggestion, but I will also personally destroy you!”

Ao Luan’s gaze was sharp as she stared at Bai Mei’Er.

Bai Mei’Er giggled, ”Don’t worry, I’m not that stupid. Isn’t Princess Long Ji our mutual adversary?”

Hearing Bai Mei’Er’s words, Ao Luan’s expression relaxed slightly, as if she felt relieved.

Ao Luan was also a woman of decisive action. Now that she had made her decision, she would carry it out swiftly.

There was still some time before the eruption of the Immortal Ancient Dao Lake.

And during this time, it was Ao Luan’s best opportunity to act.

Next, Ao Luan began her plan.

She made an excuse to leave for a moment, and Long Aotian didn’t suspect a thing.

To Long Aotian, he just needed to rest quietly and then wait for Ao Luan to take him to the Immortal Ancient Dao Lake.

Ao Luan ascended a mountain peak and took out a gilded token, infusing it with mana.

The golden dragon totem upon the token began to emit light.

Previously, when Ao Luan was trapped in the killing array, the array blocked her from using this token.

But now, it was just the right time to use it.

As Ao Luan activated the token.

In a certain area of this region.

Massive stones suddenly began to tremble, and then these stones stood upright, resembling stone giants.

This was a lineage among the Immortal Ancient Races, known as the Rock Demon Race.

”It’s the Celestial Dragon Order of the Dragon-man Race. This order calls forth the tribes in the surrounding area. You all go take a look.” A Rock Demon Race Elder said.

The strong among the Immortal Ancient Races could not leave their tribal lands.

Only the younger generation could move freely.

”Yes!” Several Celestial Pride of the Rock Demon Race responded in deep, resonant voices.

Among them, the one with the highest cultivation was surprisingly in the Late Stage of the True God Realm.

This level of cultivation realm already surpassed more than ninety percent of the Celestial Pride of the Immortal Realm.

As for comparing to Jun Xiaoyao, since he was an anomaly, there’s no comparison.

Aside from the Rock Demon Race, the Thunder Ape Race in the nearby region, along with the Wind Spirit Race and Vajra Race, three great Immortal Ancient Races, also sensed the pulse of the Celestial Dragon Order and sent their younger generations to investigate.

The Dragon-man Race commanded great prestige and authority across the entire Immortal Ancient World.

In the Immortal Ancient Races, it was also the leading race.

Therefore, Ao Luan, as a noble lady of the Dragon-man Race, had such a commanding influence, capable of invoking the Celestial Dragon Order to rally the Celestial Pride from the four corners.

It wasn’t long before Ao Luan awaited the arrival of the Celestial Pride from the four races.

Apart from the Rock Demon Race, the Celestial Pride of the Thunder Ape Race resembled apes, their whole bodies entwined with thunderous power.

The Celestial Pride of the Wind Spirit Race lacked arms, replaced by a pair of azure wings, their bodies surrounded by azure whirlwinds.

The Vajra Race, whose entire bodies were hard, were a race forged of metal, similar to a Holy Spirit to some extent.

For example, the Reincarnation Saint Spirit of the Holy Spirit Academy, whose body was the Reincarnation Dao Gold.

The Vajra Race’s body was a Vajra Stone.

When the Celestial Pride of the four major races arrived and saw Ao Luan, they all gave a slight bow, ”Greetings to the noble lady of the Dragon-man Race. What instructions does the noble lady have for us?”

Sensing the cultivation of the Celestial Pride from the four major races, Ao Luan nodded in satisfaction.

To keep the secret, Ao Luan naturally couldn’t dispatch the Celestial Pride of the Dragon-man Race to kill Princess Long Ji.

The strength of these Celestial Pride from the four races would suffice.

”I summoned you here to ask for a favor, to help me kill someone.”

Ao Luan squinted her eyes, a flash of murderous intent in them.

In her view, Princess Long Ji was already as good as dead.
