Longevity: Starting from Refining Gu-Chapter 347 - 211: Blazing Fire, the Kings, and the Hatred Buried for 300 Years
Chapter 347 -211: Blazing Fire, the Kings, and the Hatred Buried for 300 Years
“In the vast Dead Sea, dig, dig, dig!”
….
In the dim cave, Shu Hao held a soul lamp, guiding the group of Qi Refining Realm little rat demons to continue digging tunnels.
He himself watched from afar, not daring to get too close.
Once they broke through to the Death Sea, if swept away by the Dead Sea Water, they would sink into the seawater, never to rise again.
Thus, these little rat demons were placed at the forefront. When they finally breached the Death Sea, the ones to perish would only be these little rat demons.
After breaking through, they would dig a large pit to contain the Dead Sea Water, then seal the breach.
Then they would send the little rat demons again to break through the entrance, swim into the Death Sea, and stand on the seabed to search around for any trace of their king.
Of course, those little rat demons that entered the Death Sea rarely returned.
But that was their mission; they were born to do this. It was their fate.
To sacrifice their lives for their king.
Shu Hao reminisced about his happy days on Sumeru Mountain, recalled a little, then continued to supervise the work.
The only thing that puzzled him was: why was there a massive phoenix tree on Sumeru Mountain?
Furthermore, why could the king of the Rat Clan be exiled? Could it be he also possessed an Undying Body?
Instantly, he shook his head, dismissing those thoughts.
“Still, the most important task is to dig out my king as soon as possible and establish a flourishing era for the Demon Clan!”
Meanwhile, in the human world.
In the guard palace hall, Xuanping sat on the side seat, and opposite her was Yan Sisi’s seat.
The main seat was now occupied by Wushang.
However, Wushang seemed quite sensitive and rarely came back to discuss affairs. Even when he did, he would stand, hardly daring to sit in Chen Qing’s seat.
In fact, Wushang from a young age always regarded Chen Qing as a god-like figure.
Ever since Chen Qing rescued him from the demon cave, he began a true boyhood.
Later, upon learning Chen Qing considered him a younger brother, he was overjoyed.
He was simply a person with pure admiration for Chen Qing.
Xuanping glanced sideways and saw Yan Sisi standing at the guard palace door, and asked, “Are you waiting for Wushang to return?”
Yan Sisi shook her head, then nodded, “I suppose I’m waiting for him.”

After a while, the clatter of hooves echoed on the street, followed by people’s excited shouts, “The Young General led the army, slaying over a thousand evil ghosts, a great victory!”
“The Young General returns in triumph!”
“A great victory, a great victory!”
Wushang rode the Qilin up to the guard palace, his face extremely solemn, but upon entering the guard palace, he closed the door behind him.
He knelt down in front of the guard palace door, “Brother, I’m ultimately not you.”
“I have failed your expectations.”
“As soon as you left, rebellions broke out everywhere.”
“Brother, you never let the world know you possessed the King Gu, yet I, burdened with the King Gu, everyone knows.”
“But they, they still began to rebel after you left.”
A tear streamed from the corner of his eye. Yan Sisi was momentarily stunned, yet she saw Xuanping quickly walk over.
“Stand up, no crying, in our Xuan Bird tribe, there are no big men who still cry!”
“You are now the master of the South Sea Foundation Establishment!”
Yan Sisi softly said, “Sister, he at least knows to hold it in until he comes back, showing his vulnerable side only to us.”
At this moment, Wushang reached out to remove his armor, revealing it was covered in blood.
Yan Sisi exclaimed, “Are you injured?”
Wushang shook his head, “It’s not my blood; it’s my brothers’ blood. I charged too fiercely, was surrounded by evil ghosts, and my brothers died protecting me.”
“Brother Chu died right in front of me. His eyes, filled only with worry for me before his death.”
“I saw Brother Feng and Brother Chu die right in front of me, and I was helpless.”
Yan Sisi stepped forward, cradling Wushang’s head in her arms, “Didn’t you avenge them later?”
“You won; you ultimately won.”
“Though we’re covered in blood, we won!”
“Don’t be afraid, you’ve done really well.”
Bringing Wushang into the great hall, Wushang still didn’t dare to sit in the seat Chen Qing once occupied, only standing in the hall.
Yan Sisi softly spoke, “Wushang, you must remember, only big brother can protect us in this world.”
“We are abnormal people; only big brother can give us a way out.”
“Since he trusts you, he entrusted all mortal matters to you.”
Xuanping also said, “Indeed, a lord standing to conduct affairs, what kind of standards is that?”
Wushang asked, “Can I really do it?”
“Can I really fulfill big brother’s will?”
Yan Sisi replied, “You have to be able to, without big brother, we’re nothing.”
“Those dark and hellish days, we’ve all been through, you should understand.”
It was only then Wushang reined in the sorrowful expression, moving forward to sit in Chen Qing’s seat.
“Big brother could suppress Nanli without using the power of the King Gu; I surely can too!”
“Within ten years, I want to send a thousand Ghost Face Realm to the Death Realm again!”
“Issue orders, summon all generals with Mr. Jiang. I want to eradicate the ghost plague in Lin Country and restore peace to it!”
After the meeting, the hall was once more left with these three family members.
Xuanping said, “I once asked the new king of the South Sea to take me to meet King Wu. While I am away, Wushang and Sisi, you must manage things here.”
Two days later, Xuanping arrived outside the city gates, where an azure Xuan Bird flew over, pulling a colorful luan carriage.
