Lu Xiang'er explained the origin of Changsheng Hall in just a few words.
Beitong City was originally under the jurisdiction of the Hong Kingdom. Hundreds of years ago, the city lord at that time was named Shen Changhen.
Dissatisfied with the rule of the Hong Kingdom, Shen Changhen, at the Nascent Soul stage, slaughtered Hong Kingdom officials and announced the establishment of the Everlasting Victory Hall.
The Everlasting Victory Hall grew stronger day by day, and by the time it came into the hands of the current sect leader, Shen Helin, it was at its zenith.
He wanted to become king here, and also wanted to make a name for himself in the world of cultivation.
“Shen Helin… Shen Changhen… Shen Changhen… Why does that sound so familiar?” Su Diandian stroked her chin, lost in thought.
I feel like I've seen this name somewhere before.
She retrieved the information provided by the system from her consciousness and flipped through a few pages at random.
Yes.
Deeply regretful, the Old Ancestor of Changsheng Hall.
When he disguised himself as an ordinary wandering cultivator and traveled around, he encountered his predecessor.
The original in the story orchestrated a scheme, pretending to be rescued by him, and then shyly expressed her desire to repay him with her body.
At first, Shen Changhen found it boring and wanted to kick her out.
Even the most stoic man can be swayed by a persistent woman.
Under the persistent pursuit of his predecessor, Shen Changhen strangely fell in love with her and agreed to marry her.
The guy who used to be a womanizer, never getting involved with anyone, hired bandits to launch a night attack on his wedding day... and then faked his death.
By the time Shen Changhen realized she had been tricked, she had already fled to find other mission targets.
Shen Changhen wasn't stupid; he quickly tracked down her whereabouts.
Coincidentally, the original owner of this body was about to marry Lu Jian at that time.
After discovering Shen Changhen's whereabouts, the original body immediately decided to run away.
Thus, she left a humiliating letter at the Lu family's wedding banquet and eloped with someone.
After reading the information, Su Diandian couldn't help but beam with joy.
What a coincidence!
I wonder if Shen Changhen is also in this Changsheng Hall.
This old monster, who has lived for hundreds of years, must have a cultivation level comparable to Qinglan's, right?
Given the extent of his resentment towards his predecessor, he would probably be quite willing to send her to her death.
Thinking of this, she quickened her pace and rushed towards the north gate.
Lu Xiang'er jogged after her, "Sister-in-law, wait for me."
"She seems very excited." Qinglan stopped and waited for Sijihuang behind her.
Sijihuang said expressionlessly, "It has always been so."
"Speaking of which, I haven't asked you yet, why did you come to kill the Lord of the Everlasting Victory Hall?" Qinglan stared intently at him.
"She is someone I can only kill; Changsheng Palace deserves to die."
The implication was that Changsheng Hall's actions against Su Diandian had offended him, so he was seeking revenge.
Qinglan gently waved her waist fan, "Afterwards, could you please present the Heavenly Bird to the Xuancang Sect?"
"Whatever you say." Sijihuang strode forward.
Legend has it that the Heavenly Bird was the contracted beast of Shen Changhen, the patriarch of the Changsheng Hall.
After Shen Changhen disappeared, the Tianque Bird became the sacred beast of the Changsheng Palace and has been protecting it ever since.
In the last century, the ruler of Hong Kingdom assembled a super-powerful army to attack Beitong City.
The average soldier in that army was at the Foundation Establishment stage, and the centurions were at least at the Golden Core stage.
Its leading general was even at the Nascent Soul stage.
But before the army could even enter the city, they were completely devoured by the Heavenly Birds.
The Nascent Soul Realm general was also swallowed into the belly of the Heavenly Bird.
The Heavenly Bird, with its astonishing combat power, is rumored to have reached the seventh rank, comparable to a human cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage.
There were no soldiers guarding the gate of the Changsheng Hall; only a baby in a red bib was squatting at the entrance eating candied hawthorns.
Su Diandian ignored the little baby and went to push the door open.
But the gate remained completely still.
The little girl, holding a candied hawthorn stick, skipped over and asked, "Big sister, what are you doing here?"
Su Diandian answered without hesitation: "Since you've come to kill the Lord of the Everlasting Victory Hall, have you considered opening a door for your sister?"
"Okay!" The little boy blinked his big eyes and stepped forward, throwing a punch at the vermilion gate.
With a loud bang, the door shattered and kicked up dust.
The little baby stood happily in the doorway, waving to Su Diandian: "Come quickly, sisters, I'll take you to see Xiao Linzi."
Lu Xiang'er nervously tugged at Su Diandian, "Sister-in-law... I'm afraid there's something fishy going on."
Su Diandian patted her hand, "Why don't you not go in, and just wander around Beitong City while you wait for my news?"
Lu Xiang'er, who has no spiritual roots, considers herself a burden.
But avenging the Lu family is her responsibility.
She must not back down.
"Although it's shameless... I still hope to witness everything." Lu Xiang'er knew that she could never take revenge on her own.
She placed all her hopes on the Four Seasons Wasteland.
"Sister-in-law, is the sect leader of the Corpse Controlling Sect truly willing to destroy the Everlasting Victory Hall for you?"
Su Diandian looked at Lu Xiang'er with complicated emotions and sighed for no reason.
Hatred has turned this lovely little girl into someone unrecognizable.
“Lu Xiang’er…” she said solemnly, “Stop here, don’t go in and risk your life.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Diandian raised her hand and knocked the person unconscious with a chop.
"Brother Huang, can I borrow Ahei?"
Siji Huang silently shook the copper ring on his hand, and then Ahei behind him silently stepped forward, picked up Lu Xiang'er, and left.
The little boy inside took a bite of his candied hawthorn and asked, "Are you coming in or not? If Xiao Linzi finds out I broke down the door and you're not coming in, he'll be angry."
Su Diandian's eyes were firm: "Go in, of course we'll go in."
