"Don't hesitate any longer, hurry and go, otherwise, you won't be able to leave later," Zhou Hong grabbed Long Yu's mother and quickly vanished from the spot.
Soon after, Zhou Hong landed on the ground. Sudan Novel Network.
"Hello, excuse me, do you know where Xuanyuan City is?" Zhou Hong asked a cultivator for directions.
"Go forward from here, after passing three cities, you will reach Xuanyuan City."
"Okay, thank you."
"Auntie, we've found it. Let's head to Xuanyuan City now. I hope Long Yu is still there."
Zhou Hong set off immediately. About two days later, Zhou Hong finally arrived at Xuanyuan City.
Zhou Hong stood at the entrance of Xuanyuan City, looking at the three large characters, and smiled slightly.
Entering Xuanyuan City, Zhou Hong greeted another cultivator and asked, "Hello, do you know Long Yu?"
"Long Yu? Which Long Yu? You don't mean the City Lord of Xuanyuan City, do you?"
Zhou Hong was slightly surprised. Could the City Lord of Xuanyuan City also be named Long Yu?
Zhou Hong immediately waved his hand, and a portrait appeared out of thin air, which was indeed Long Yu's.
"Ah, isn't this the City Lord of Xuanyuan City?" the cultivator said quickly upon seeing the portrait.
Zhou Hong chuckled. This kid had some skills to actually become a city lord.
"Thank you."
After getting the information, Zhou Hong immediately headed for the City Lord's Mansion.
However, just as Zhou Hong arrived at the City Lord's Mansion and before he could enter, a loud shout came from the sky: "Long Yu, you dog City Lord, get out here and die."
Zhou Hong heard the shout from the sky and immediately looked up. He saw two men in the sky. Their strength seemed to be considerable, both having reached the Immortal Emperor level.
"Someone wants to kill Long Yu?" Zhou Hong muttered to himself.
Long Yu's mother immediately became flustered, saying, "Senior Zhou Hong, please save my son quickly."
"Don't worry, Auntie. With me here, no one can kill your son. Let's watch from here for now. What if your son can handle it himself?"
As expected, in the next second, a young man shot out from the City Lord's Mansion. This young man was none other than Long Yu.
Zhou Hong and this Long Yu had not seen each other for 100 years. The last time they met 100 years ago was in the Immortal Demon Mountain Range.
Zhou Hong remembered that 100 years ago, Long Yu's strength was already considerable, capable of fighting against a Fifth-grade Immortal King. Now, after 100 years, his strength should not be weak.
"What business do you two have with me?" Long Yu flew into the sky and snorted at the two who had come to kill him.
"Long dog, was it you who ambushed us in the Demon Subduing Mountain Range last time? You caused the immortal medicine that was within our grasp to be snatched away by a mysterious person. Was that mysterious person you?" one of the immortals said furiously.
"That's right, it was me," Long Yu in the sky admitted without hesitation.
"You're truly audacious to dare snatch our things. Do you know whose subordinate we are?"
"No, tell me."
"We are subordinates of the Queen Mother. That immortal medicine last time was also collected by us on the Queen Mother's orders. If you know what's good for you, hand over the item, otherwise, your entire clan will be exterminated."
Long Yu's expression in the sky changed slightly. He hadn't expected the other party's backing to be so powerful. The Queen Mother was the empress of the Immortal Emperor.
"Long Yu, you can't swallow it. This is a Primordial Immortal Medicine. For this immortal medicine, the Queen Mother will definitely make a move herself. If you dare to swallow it, you definitely won't live past next year."
On the ground, Zhou Hong's grandfather said in his mind, "What a treasure, a Primordial Immortal Medicine."
"Grandpa, do you recognize this thing?" Zhou Hong asked eagerly.
"Nonsense, this Primordial Immortal Medicine is incredibly magical, not ordinary immortal medicine. After consuming it, your level can be increased without approval, meaning it can bypass the Immortal Emperor's restrictions. It's just a pity that it's very rare. However, this Primordial Immortal Medicine is mainly used by those at or above the Immortal Emperor level. Giving it to immortals below the Immortal Emperor level is quite a waste. When I was alive, I desperately wanted to obtain this immortal medicine, but unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity."
"Oh, oh! So you mean, if Long Yu is going to hand it over, I should snatch it from them?"
"You can try."
In the sky, Long Yu seemed to be in a dilemma.
However, after hesitating for a moment, he still felt it wasn't worth offending the Queen Mother for a Primordial Immortal Medicine.
"Forget it, forget it, I'll give it to you." Long Yu sighed and instantly took out a golden, radiant immortal medicine from his body.
However, at this moment, Zhou Hong on the ground instantly rushed out. Ten thousand puppets filled the sky and, with a bang, directly annihilated the two subordinates of the Queen Mother.
"Ah!" Long Yu was startled.
Zhou Hong then flew up and said with a smile, "Brother Long Yu, long time no see."
"Zhou Hong? Why is it you? Why did you kill them just now? They are subordinates of the Queen Mother." Long Yu looked at Zhou Hong in confusion, as Zhou Hong's actions were no different from his own killing them.
"Long Yu, I thought it was a pity for you to give them the Primordial Immortal Medicine, so I eliminated them. You won't blame me, will you?"
"Alas! Since they are already dead, what's the use of blaming you? At worst, we'll have to run again," Long Yu said with a bitter smile.
"I'm truly sorry for implicating you."
"If we are brothers, don't talk about implicating. Since you want it, take it," Long Yu threw the Primordial Immortal Medicine in his hand to Zhou Hong.
Zhou Hong accepted it unceremoniously.
It was then that Long Yu noticed Zhou Hong's realm was only at Eighth-grade Demon Master, and he was somewhat surprised. "Zhou Hong, why is your realm so low? When we met in the Immortal Demon Mountain Range 100 years ago, we were about the same. Now, after 100 years, I have cultivated to Ninth-grade Immortal King, one step away from becoming an Immortal Emperor. How about you?"
"Haha, in these 100 years, I haven't cultivated at all, which is why I need this Primordial Immortal Medicine now. I'll explain it to you later."
"Alright. I suppose it has something to do with that puppet sword array you used just now. You used this 100 years ago, and I remember there were only eight puppets then."
"Yes, now I have accumulated ten thousand puppets."
"Wow, it must be terrifyingly powerful. When you unleashed it just now, I felt a chill."
Zhou Hong smiled slightly and said, "My Ten Thousand Puppet Sword Array was specifically researched to kill Immortal Emperors."
"Kill Immortal Emperors?"
"That's right. To be honest, an Immortal Emperor in your immortal realm named Ye Chen has already had his physical body killed by me."
"My heavens." Long Yu was immediately startled, finding it unbelievable that Zhou Hong had actually killed the physical body of an Immortal Emperor.
"But it's a pity that I don't have an overwhelming advantage when facing an Immortal Emperor now. We'll discuss these things later. First, you need to meet someone."
"Who?" Long Yu asked doubtfully.
"Look at the ground, at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion."
Long Yu looked down at the ground and was stunned when he saw the woman at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Mom!" Long Yu, in disbelief, rushed down from mid-air.
