Chapter 911: Chapter 398: Remember His Name (3)

While traveling, Shangguan Xiaoxiao casually pointed at the Immortal City below, asking Li An.

"Use the array."

"I don’t know how to use the array? How?"

"First, you need to go inside and see the formation of the city’s Protector Array. It’s best to base the killing array on the city’s grand array, but a single killing array is definitely not enough. You need to arrange seventeen or eighteen small arrays inside and finally connect them with the grand array to take everything in one go..."

Li An casually replied.

"If the young can be taught, but by doing this, you will die too."

Shangguan Xiaoxiao said: "Remember, before taking action, investigate the escape routes first. If you don’t have seventy or eighty escape routes prepared and can’t have a tenfold guarantee of survival, then it’s as good as asking for death."

"Spells, divine powers, cultivation—all secondary. Learning how to survive is the king’s way."

"Forget it, telling you might be pointless, you’re just a hothead, a stubborn fool."

She shook her head; she didn’t think Xue Sword had talent in this aspect. After all, if Xue Sword truly had talent, he wouldn’t have been caught by her while trying to escape the Bone Transformation Array.

However, teaching is still necessary.

Besides, these things were what Li An was supposed to teach his own disciples.

Now she... is leaving behind something for Li An.

This is also the reason why she accepted Xue Sword.

She doesn’t need disciples and has long been accustomed to solitude; meeting the descendant of Li An’s disciple was an unexpected joy.

Li An couldn’t help but smile; he never even dreamed that one day, Shangguan Xiaoxiao would teach him how to survive...

Hahaha...

"Why are you giggling?"

Shangguan Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at him and said: "With someone like you, I really don’t know how your ancestor was accepted as a disciple by him."

"Oh, right, he liked accepting fools as disciples, easy to fool."

Li An couldn’t help but ask: "Master... do you know my ancestor’s master?"

Shangguan Xiaoxiao ground her little tiger teeth and said: "Yes, I know, life and death enemies."

Li An deliberately showed a pale face and stood still, looking at Shangguan Xiaoxiao with an expression of fear, appearing quite frightened.

Shangguan Xiaoxiao suddenly burst out laughing and said: "Relax, as for someone like you, I can’t take my revenge on you."

Li An then showed a relaxed face and then asked: "Master, what kind of person was my ancestor’s master?"

"Selfish, cold-blooded, evildoer; for profit, could sell even the person he loved most. In his eyes, there was no family, no brothers, not a hint of emotion, a heart of a wolf and lungs of a dog..."

Li An said: "Really a bastard."

Shangguan Xiaoxiao suddenly glared at him and said: "What did you say?!"

Li An said: "He..."

"Do you even have the right to insult him?"

"Master... you were insulting him."

Shangguan Xiaoxiao snorted coldly and said: "My insult is my insult, what does that have to do with you?"

"Though I don’t know which disciple of his you are a descendant of, he took care of all his disciples well. Even on his deathbed, he kept looking after his sect..."

"Then was he actually a good person or a bad person?" Li An asked lightly.

"What does good or bad matter; he was just who he was."

Shangguan Xiaoxiao said: "Forget it, let’s not discuss this."

"We’re here."

She took Li An and landed in a valley, where they saw roses blooming all around. Among the vibrant flowers stood a small cottage, and in front of it was a lake.

Not far away, there were three graves.

Shangguan Xiaoxiao picked a bouquet of blooming roses and placed them in front of one of the graves, standing silently for a long time.

"This is..."

Li An asked.

"A friend’s grave, next to her husband and child."

Shangguan Xiaoxiao tidied her hair and said: "Her husband died very long ago, so only remains are buried here. She lived a pitiful but joyful life. After she passed, I buried the family of three here as per her dying wish."

Li An was startled; from his sense and Shangguan Xiaoxiao’s current description, he had already guessed...

This is likely the wife and child whom the Longevity Seeker longed for...

The Longevity Seeker’s life was bitter and cruel. Walking out of the Human Gu of Ten Thousand People Island, he never believed anyone, but was eventually moved by Yuan Ziyi, willing to give up everything and set a grand scheme through the ages, just to bring his wife and child back to this world.

To live a happy and peaceful life.

To witness this splendid yet bleak world.

Now, the three tombs were right in front, ordinary and common, without even a tombstone. Who could have imagined that these three graves have such a significant history?

After some time, perhaps even the graves would vanish, swallowed by wild grass, leaving no one in the world to remember that there had been a Human Gu who attained Longevity, and once, a woman dressed in purple called back a lost soul.

"When eternity looms, only solitude remains; when finally beautiful, it’s fleeting. Is it true that all beautiful things cannot be eternal? Does eternity cease to be beautiful?"

Shangguan Xiaoxiao inexplicably sighed.

Then she turned back and said: "You’ll practice here. This is all your lineage’s secret techniques. How far you can go depends on your own fortune."

She pointed out, and immediately a flood of information rushed into Li An’s mind; he sifted through it, discovering it included the Life Nourishing Immortal Skill, Immortal Celestial Demon Skill, and others!

These were initially left by Li An to the Dao Sect, and now she passed them on to Li An.

"Remember, your ancestor’s master was named Li An."

"The world called him the Blood Sword Demon Monarch."

After speaking, Shangguan Xiaoxiao’s figure was already fading, as if going far away!

"Master, where are you going?!"

Li An was shocked, quickly asking loudly.

"Li Mountain, to save people, then kill people."

This time, Shangguan Xiaoxiao did not hide anymore and further questioned Li An: "Answer me, what’s the name of your lineage’s founder?"

Li An said: "Li An, Blood Sword Demon Monarch."

"Remember his name, don’t forget. I don’t want, after I’m dead, for no one in this world to remember him."

After saying this, her figure was already gone.

...

Good night.
