Longevity: After Six Thousand Years, The Diary Was Exposed

A single word stirs up a thousand waves!

On the originally silent plain, all major forces were waiting for the decision made by An Jia to settle down.

However, everyone had always felt that the answer was not suspenseful.

Therefore, after listening to An Shanyuan's words, they were all somewhat stunned.

No one could believe that at this moment, An Jia dared to decisively refuse to open the prohibition of Cangwu Mountain.

This undoubtedly challenged half of the cultivation world with the power of a single clan!

Their courage is commendable!

But are they really not afraid of annihilation?

After a brief commotion, silence fell again. However, at this moment, the gazes of the people who had come here had become noticeably colder when they looked at An Shanyuan.

Powerful auras erupted invisibly!

Since An Jia had made a choice, they must bear the consequences of that choice.

"Please listen to me again, everyone!"

An Shanyuan had made sufficient preparations before coming and had anticipated that this situation would inevitably occur.

At this moment, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart and wiped away a cold sweat.

He quickly waved his hand and once again faced the crowd, saying, "Fellow Daoists!"

"Which family doesn't have any secrets?"

"I want to ask everyone, can the ancestral hall of the secret realm you join in your sect be opened at will for the world to visit?"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was silence at the scene.

Many people shook their heads secretly. Which family in the cultivation world didn't have any secrets?

But to expose these secrets?

That's impossible.

But if these secrets belonged to someone else and were related to significant opportunities...

That would be a different story.

An Shanyuan's words might have won some sympathy, but they were unlikely to dispel the intentions of the people to enter Cangwu Mountain.

On the contrary, at this moment, the more An Jia tried to conceal, the more it aroused suspicion among the people.

"For thousands of years, An Jia has risen rapidly..."

"Could it be because they have mastered the secret of Cangwu Mountain?"

"It's quite possible!"

"Even the Immortal Great Emperor said that this is a secret that concerns the entire cultivation world. How can it be monopolized by a single family?"

"In any case, An Jia must hand over Cangwu Mountain!"

For a while, people were discussing fervently, and the light in their eyes became even more fanatical.

Just at this moment!

"Silence!"

A voice mixed with mana resounded, echoing across the plain.

Everyone turned their heads in the direction of the sound and saw a slightly pale, extraordinary young nobleman walking out.

"That's Jiang Rulong from the Jiang family!"

"He's also a rare young talent. At such a young age, his cultivation has already reached the Void Refining stage. Impressive!"

"It is rumored that the Jiang family has always had a good relationship with the An family. What does he want by speaking up now?"

The Jiang family is an ancient cultivation clan.

Many people present knew Jiang Rulong, and when they saw him speaking up, many people secretly murmured to themselves.

Yuan Ruoyu's eyes narrowed as she observed Jiang Rulong.

On the other side, Ye Qingge sat in the imperial carriage, lifted the bead curtain, and also looked at Jiang Rulong.

For a moment, all eyes were focused on him.

Jiang Rulong took a deep breath, raised his head high, took a few steps forward, and bowed to An Shanyuan. Then he asked in a deep voice, "Old Master An, although our two families have been friends for generations..."

"But this time, I disagree with your view. The diary of the Great Emperor records a great secret about the cultivators of the world!"

Jiang Rulong paused for a moment and continued, "Therefore, Cangwu Mountain should be opened to let the cultivators of the world see for themselves! It should not be monopolized by your family alone!"

These words surprised everyone.

Many people nodded in agreement.

They thought Jiang Rulong was speaking up for the An family, but they didn't expect this outcome.

An Shanyuan glanced at him with a faint sneer, and then faced the crowd, saying, "The diary of the Great Emperor says there is a great secret, so there must be?"

"Should we also go and dig up the treasures in your ancestors' tombs if the Great Emperor says so?"

Jiang Rulong's face stiffened. "This... what Old An said also makes sense!"

Many people exchanged glances.

Yuan Ruoyu quietly observed this scene, lost in thought.

After hesitating for a moment, An Shanyuan suddenly looked serious and swept his gaze over the crowd, asking in a deep voice, "Have you ever considered one thing?"

"The diary of the Great Emperor, perhaps it was deliberately exposed by Lin Feng? He wanted to achieve some kind of purpose through this!"

"Or perhaps, to eliminate former opponents and enemies?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd was first shocked, then their expressions changed, and they remained silent for a long time without speaking.

An Shanyuan's words struck at the hearts of the people.

In fact, many people were asking themselves, what if the diary of the Great Emperor exposed their own family?

An Shanyuan took advantage of the situation and continued, "Everything is just the words of the Immortal Great Emperor. He can write whatever he wants in the diary!"

"And for the contents of the diary, are we worth breaking our heads and shedding blood?"

Many people were already starting to waver.

At least they were not as firm as they were at the beginning. Seeing this scene, An Shanyuan's tense heart relaxed a little.

It was impossible to dispel everyone's doubts.

But as long as some people could believe in the An family, and with the secret assistance of the other few families...

Even if they came at them forcefully, An Jia would still have the power to fight.

However, at this moment.

Yuan Ruoyu's voice resounded in everyone's ears: "An Lao means, did your An family have any grudges with the immortal Great Emperor?"

These words once again aroused everyone's vigilance.

Pairs of eyes stared at An Shanyuan intently.

An Shanyuan frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "I don't recall having any grudges in my memory!"

"But who knows?"

"My An family has millions of members, and the immortal Great Emperor is mysterious and unfathomable. It is possible that some disciples of our family, without knowing it, had conflicts with him!"

This explanation seems reasonable.

An Shanyuan, as the head of the family, gave a convincing response in his anxious state.

Seeing the change in the attitudes of the crowd, he continued, "Is the immortal Great Emperor's words always the truth?"

"Wouldn't that cause chaos in the world?"

"Can one manipulate the world's situation with casual fabrications, becoming a laughingstock?"

An Shanyuan hit the sore spot of the crowd, asking three consecutive questions.

Leaving everyone speechless.

For a moment, the air fell silent again, without a sound.

Just when An Shanyuan thought his plan was about to succeed, Ye Qingge suddenly made a move.

She stepped down from the imperial carriage, her eyes indifferent, and said with an unparalleled dominance:

"That's right!"

"What he says is the truth!"

"Just because he is the unparalleled Great Emperor in terms of strength, if he wants to destroy your An family, why bother with all this? He can do it with a snap of his fingers!"

An Shanyuan's face turned pale, and he shouted, "You..."

"Your An family's words are nothing but clever disguises!"

Ye Qingge interrupted him directly, her tone growing colder, her killing intent rising:

"I, Ye Qingge, have made my stance clear. The Cangwu Mountain must be opened."

"Otherwise, we go to war!"

An Shanyuan opened his mouth again, wanting to argue!

But he was interrupted once again!

Yuan Ruoyu's voice was also mixed with killing intent as she coldly said, "That's right, my Yuchi Holy Land will also accompany you to the end!"

Among those present, there were many who had conflicts with each other in the past few days.

For some reason, they had now come together again?

It was inexplicable.

If one didn't know, they would think that Ye Qingge and Yuan Ruoyu had planned this together.

But this didn't affect others from making their determination and standing up to express their stance.

With the support of Yuchi Holy Land and Lixue Immortal Dynasty, what was there to fear?

"That's right! We will join the fight, and Clear Breeze City is also in!"

"We must open Cangwu Mountain!"

"It cannot be monopolized by one family, it should be shared by all cultivators in the world!"

"Within three days, lift the seal and prohibition on Cangwu Mountain, or your An family will bear the consequences."

"Don't think you can deceive us with flowery words and conceal the truth!"

For a moment, everyone became excited, their enthusiasm and ambition reaching its peak!

With just a few words, Ye Qingge destroyed the doubts that An Shanyuan had painstakingly created.

An Shanyuan looked at the crowd's imposing appearance and hated Ye Qingge to the core.

He gritted his teeth and thought that at this point, he could only try another risky method.

An Shanyuan's aura exploded, and a surging power swept out as he shouted loudly:

"Since that's the case, can I say one more thing?"

"Otherwise, let's go to war. My An family is not easy to bully. Even if we have to fight to the last person, we will protect the peace of our ancestors!"

Ye Qingge sneered and said, "Then there's no need to say anything. With so many forces on our side, are we afraid of your An family fighting to the death?"

"Very well! Then let your An family fight to the last person!"

The conversation between the two silenced the crowd once again.

An Shanyuan's eyebrows twitched, his anger soaring, almost spitting out blood.

He looked at Ye Qingge, thinking that he hadn't offended her!

Jiang Youlong took the opportunity to step forward and stop everyone, saying, "An Lao, I'll give you one last chance. Say what you have to say!"

"It's best not to be perfunctory, otherwise..."

An Shanyuan felt grateful in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged as he quickly said:

"Alright, I agree with everyone..."

He paused, his gaze sharp as he scanned the crowd, and shouted, "To avoid bloodshed, we can hold a life-and-death duel!"

"All the forces present can freely select three people to face our An family's three ancestors!"

An Shanyuan continued, "A fair duel, regardless of life or death, three rounds, two wins!"

"If my An family loses, we will obey your commands!"

"But if my An family miraculously wins, you all must not mention this matter again and leave Ningzhou!"

Once these words were spoken.

Everyone looked at An Shanyuan with a hint of admiration.

Although their positions were different, An Shanyuan and the An family's performance was worthy of admiration.

To make such a decision required great courage!

All the forces present would select three of their strongest individuals to face the An family's three ancestors. If they still lost, they would have no face to vie for this opportunity again.

Even Ye Qingge remained silent at this moment.

"Good! It's a deal!"

"Three days later, we will select our team and have a life-and-death battle with your An family's three ancestors!"

All the forces present agreed to this plan.

In this way, not only could they minimize the impact and avoid a scene of bloodshed.

Moreover!

With so many top forces present, could they not find three capable fighters?
