Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily

Chapter 699: Chapter 457: Oppressing Imperial Authority Must Be Destroyed! (Double-Length)

”Yes, young master.” Song Ping’an immediately agreed.

He was also aware of his current capabilities, suitable for making money and accumulating wealth for Song Changming, but in such a battle, he would only be a burden to the young master.

Su Qingqing, on the other hand, hesitated, thinking she could assist Song Changming by staying.

”Listen.” Song Changming said to her.

If anything happened to Su Qingqing, not only would he struggle with it emotionally, but Xi Yanxue would also likely go berserk on the spot.

After escorting the group out of the city, Song Changming did not return to the Song Residence but instead headed straight for the Su Mansion in the Core District.

With the hawk guarding Little Yellow Bird, there was no need for him to do anything.

Instead, the situation in the city required his intervention, and Hu Tomb had also asked him to return to the city for this matter!

In an instant, he appeared above the Su Mansion.

Gazing at the grand and luxurious Su Family mansion, Song Changming’s master’s power fluctuated around him, his expression cold.

He and the Su Family were not merely in opposing camps; for him personally, this Changsheng Family was also a great enemy.

The other party had repeatedly made moves against him, and after this battle, he did not intend to let this enemy go.

”It’s rude to not reciprocate!”

At this moment, spirit swords appeared around Song Changming, hovering on either side of him.

”Song Changming!”

At this time, members of the Su Clan stationed at the mansion also noticed Song Changming’s arrival and immediately rose into the air, flying to confront him.

”What do you intend to do!”

They saw him as a formidable adversary, staring at Song Changming intently.

After all, the master’s power emanating from Song Changming was unmistakable, and regardless of who Song Changming was, his identity as a Martial Arts Grandmaster was enough to put significant pressure on them.

”The Su Family has rebelled, oppressing the prince’s authority, and must be exterminated!” Song Changming said, one word at a time, in a deep voice.

The aura around him grew even stronger.

After a while, his condition had recovered by half, and if he unleashed his full strength, although not at his peak, he could still exert seventy to eighty percent of his combat power in a short time!

This was enough for him to have the confidence to say these words.

With those words, Song Changming didn’t bother to delay, and with his mind’s command, the spirit swords flew out.

”Kill!”

The Su Clan members had no choice but to rise and fight back.

But unfortunately, Song Changming’s flying sword array was already mature, capable of posing a threat even to Su Xiang, who had the power of a Middle Realm Grandmaster, let alone these Innate Martial Artists before him.

Even though they bore the Changsheng Blood, under Song Changming’s swordsmanship, they were no different from other martial artists.

With a stern face, Song Changming slaughtered with abandon.

Five, ten, twenty, fifty people...

In an instant, the bodies of the Su Clan members, household retainers, and Household Generals fell from the sky like dumplings.

He had always been cold-hearted and ruthless towards enemies!

The so-called Changsheng Blood continuously spilled from the sky, splattering onto the Su Mansion.

Gradually, no one dared to rush out from the Su Mansion.

The fearless had all perished, leaving only the terrified within the mansion.

Throughout, Song Changming didn’t move, remaining suspended in mid-air, allowing his flying swords to act on his behalf.

This was also a way for him to reduce his own energy consumption in battle.

It wasn’t until the flying swords pursued and sought to enter the Su Mansion that they met with resistance.

A thick and indestructible protective array firmly encircled the entire Su Mansion, and despite the prowess of the flying swords, they couldn’t penetrate this Household Protection Array. They only left ripples on its surface, much like raindrops hitting the ground, unable to shake it.

Seeing this, Song Changming withdrew the flying swords, grasped a long blade with his right hand, and decisively struck down.

The Demon Ape roared, and this thunderous blow unleashed layers of crimson Cloud Saber Qi.

Boom!

The protective array shook violently but managed to endure the strike.

Back on the Red Earth Continent, Su Xiang and the other Su Family Grandmasters’ expressions changed.

”The protective array at the mansion has been damaged!”

The Household Protection Array was the Su Family’s last line of defense, and once it came under threat, all of them, whether in seclusion or thousands of miles away, could sense it immediately!

”Shouzhen, Yunxin, Yuzhou, you three return at once!” Su Dong Pill’s voice came through the boundless gale.

”Yes.” Without hesitation, the three abandoned the Fox Race Great Demon before them and sped back toward the main city.

The Su Mansion related to the Su Family’s foundation, thus it was of utmost importance and could not be compromised.

Initially, they intended to first capture the group of Fox Race Great Demons, but this unforeseen situation disrupted their plan.

Meanwhile, above the Su Mansion, seeing that one strike couldn’t break the grand array, Song Changming switched to holding the blade with both hands, unleashing the Double Seal. The Ant Power and Mountain-moving Power both converged on this blade.

The master’s power became even greater, and the Sword Qi almost materialized the forms of two Ancient Fierce Beasts, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws around Song Changming.

As Song Changming built up his strength, Qian Yuan suddenly appeared behind him, sweat dripping from his anxious old face.

Quickly wiping his Heaven and Earth Ring, he released thirty-six Talisman Flags, dispersing them around the surroundings, covering the sky and ground.

”Black Tortoise Array, activate!”

Buzz!

The Talisman Array quickly formed, transforming into a dark curtain that enveloped the area, separating inside and outside.

”Thank you, Elder Qian!” Song Changming said.

”If I let you run wild, no city, no matter how solid, can withstand your destruction!” Qian Yuan said irritably.

He truly worried that if Song Changming couldn’t break the protective array of the Su Mansion with a strike, he might instead destroy much of Cui Bai Main City.

With the power Song Changming was building up, it was indeed possible!

Thus, he had no choice but to come, using the Talisman Array to block Song Changming’s Sword Might.

”The Su Family may be in decline now, but their ancestors were once prosperous. The array at this mansion is an ancient grand array; breaking it with brute force is likely as hard as reaching the heavens...” Elder Qian shook his head and sighed, eyeing the Su Family’s protective array below.

He understood Song Changming’s formidable strength but clearly didn’t believe he could break this grand array.

He didn’t think even Prince Cui could break it.

”Whatever the case, I’ll give it another try,” Song Changming replied.

As the prince’s mansion’s chief talisman master, Qian Yuan’s expertise in the art of runes far exceeded his, and he trusted this professional judgment.

Moreover, after the first slash, he already understood the solidity of the Household Protection Array. He planned to try one more slash, and if the protective array remained unmoved, he would have to give up.

Once fully powered up, Song Changming didn’t hesitate at all and unleashed a slash far exceeding the previous one.

Crash!

The earth shook as Song Changming’s long blade and the Su Mansion’s protective array had an intense energy confrontation, leading to a brief stalemate.

The violent crimson Cloud Saber Qi nearly dyed the entire sky above the Su Mansion a terrifying crimson red.

Elder Qian’s Black Tortoise Rune Array played a crucial role at this moment, confining this earth-shattering Sword Might to the Su Mansion’s location, preventing it from spreading further to the surroundings.

The other noble families residing in the Core District only felt a strong wind rising, with some bricks and tiles being blown off.

Withdrawing his blade, Song Changming retreated to Elder Qian’s side, feeling stuffy in his chest, his whole body numb, and his arms sore.

Looking down, his chest was red and scalding, emitting wisps of smoke as if it had been scraped by a laser.

This was the injury from the protective array’s countershock energy.

If not for his timely invocation of the Scale Turtle Beast’s Witch Soldier Seal, covering his body with tortoiseshell scales, this energy countershock would have been enough to penetrate his flesh, shattering his heart and other vital organs, killing him instead.

No denying it, this ancient rune array was indeed, as Elder Qian said, full of hidden complexities and difficult to break with brute force.

”It’s just that you have a Vajra Indestructible body; if any other martial artist, even grandmaster powerhouses faced this counterforce, they’d be in danger!” Qian Yuan acknowledged, somewhat relieved.

Song Changming remained silent, pondering secretly what would happen if he used the Sword Intent from the stone tablet...

Regrettably, that world-ending Sword Intent wasn’t something he could simply release at will.

Not to mention that his current physical state hadn’t yet recovered to its peak.

”Truly troublesome...”

Song Changming finally muttered, preparing to abandon the notion of destroying the Su Family mansion.
