Very quickly, Long Yu brought Feng Changge and Man Yi out of the observation range of the Gu Meng Kingdom's sentry tower and hid behind a small snowy hill.
Man Yi was sent flying by Yu Qianning's palm and suffered severe internal injuries. He was on the verge of dying.
"Old General, how are you?"
Long Yu and Feng Changge placed Old General Man Yi's body down gently on the snowy ground.
"I … I can't …"
Old General Man Yi continuously coughed out blood, but his eyes flashed with incomparable unswerving determination as he looked at Long Yu: "Chang Ge, this is the Long Yu you were talking about, brother Long Zai Tian's son …"
"That's right, it's him."
Feng Changge said in a deep voice.
"Long Yu."
Old General Man Yi coughed out blood, and looked at Long Yu with anticipation in his eyes: "Your talent is not any worse than your father's, your future achievements will definitely be extraordinary … I, can give you my head, so that you can return to the Great Tang Empire, and wash away the injustice of treason, but you must also do one thing for me …"
"Hmm?"
Long Yu frowned. Until now, he still could not figure out the relationship between him and Man Yi.
Regarding this, he did not dare to simply agree.
"Promise the old general. As for the other things, I will tell you everything."
Feng Changge said with a solemn expression.
If Yu Qianning saw him and Long Yu in the Gu Meng Kingdom's camp, she would definitely announce that they had committed treason.
If they still wanted to return to the Great Tang Empire, then they could only bring Man Yi's head back to clear their name of treason!
Although Feng Changge was reluctant, he could see that Man Yi's life was on the line.
Even if all the Alchemists of the Great Tang Empire gathered together, they would not be able to save him! Instead of dying like this, it was better to bring his head back to Long Yu.
Most importantly, Man Yi had an unfulfilled wish that he wanted Long Yu to complete.
"Alright then, Old General, I promise you."
Long Yu said solemnly as he nodded towards Man Yi.
"Then I can rest assured. After I die, cut off my head and bring it back to Tang Pass. In this way, you and your foster father will naturally be cleared of treason … "
Old General Man Yi had a gratified expression. "As for what I want you to do for me, it's something that will happen sooner or later. That is … to kill Chu Chaosheng!"
Chu Chaosheng!
Long Yu's heart skipped a beat when he heard that.
This wasn't the first time he heard Chu Chaosheng's name. Just now in the tent, Man Yi and Feng Changge mentioned that Chu Chaosheng was Yu Qianning's father.
Kill Yu Qianning's father?
However, before Long Yu could agree, Man Yi's old body loosened and fell onto the cold snow.
His eyes were still filled with anticipation and unwillingness.
He looked forward to the day when Long Yu could kill Chu Chaosheng and avenge him! But he was also unwilling to not be able to witness Chu Chaosheng's death with his own eyes!
"Old General?"
Feng Changge's expression changed slightly and he placed his hand on the tip of Man Yi's nose.
This allowed him to know that the old general, Man Yi, was really dead!
"Yu, we can't afford to be late. Let's go."
Feng Changge stood up and chopped off Man Yi's head with his bronze sword without hesitation.
Then, he dug a deep hole in the snow and buried Man Yi's body.
His actions were so decisive that even Long Yu couldn't help but be somewhat moved.
Although he didn't know the exact relationship between Feng Changge and this old general, they weren't enemies. Yet, Feng Changge could so decisively cut off Man Yi's head!
"Little Yu, let's talk as we go. The Gu Meng army will catch up soon."
Feng Changge carried Man Yi's head and left.
Long Yu did not hesitate. The Lunar Wings on his back unfurled, and a layer of strange black ripples appeared. His figure, along with Feng Changge, turned into a streak of greyish-black flowing light, and quickly returned in the direction of Tang Pass, taking a detour.
At the same time, Long Yu finally heard the complete story of his father, Long Zaitian, from Feng Changge!
… …
Twenty years ago.
Gu Meng and Dong Ri joined forces to attack the Tang Empire.
The strength of the three countries was not much different. The two countries united to occupy the resource-rich areas of the Tang Empire and divide it among themselves. However, they did not expect that the Tang Empire would produce a fierce general on the battlefield, a Martial Dao Extreme Master!
This person was Long Yu's father, Long Zaitian.
Back then, Long Zaitian was the main general of the alliance against the Gu Meng and Dong Ri. He created the Ten Thousand Kill Spear Art, which could kill tens of thousands of people with a single thrust.
The current Thousand Thread Sect's Sect Master, Yu Ruyan, was a devastatingly beautiful young lady in the past.
Like countless girls in the Tang Empire, she fell in love with Long Zaitian, the national hero. Due to her outstanding talent in Martial Dao, she joined the Tang Empire's military and became one of Long Zaitian's deputies.
Long Zaitian had been fighting for many years and Yu Ruyan had accompanied him for many years. However, Long Zaitian didn't have any feelings for Yu Ruyan.
He didn't like Yu Ruyan!
Among the Gu Meng army that fought against Long Zaitian, there was an old general, Man Yi. He was only in his thirties and was in the prime of his life.
During one of the battles, Man Yi, who had reached the sixth level of the True Spirit Realm, saw Yu Ruyan. He was shocked and fell in love with her.
With Man Yi's level of Martial Dao, he had more than one chance to kidnap Yu Ruyan and take her away by force. However, he didn't do that and instead pursued her.
Man Yi and Long Zaitian were evenly matched on the battlefield. He was the pillar of the Gu Meng army and had unparalleled talent in military affairs.
This made Long Zaitian and Man Yi appreciate each other and communicate with each other through pigeons.
The relationship between the two was that they were evenly matched and admired each other. However, on the battlefield, they still tried their best to kill each other.
After all, they were on opposite sides!
Until Long Zaitian met Bei Yuyao, a girl from the Heavenly Mandate Institute. He was instantly attracted by the fairy-like Bei Yuyao.
The two fell in love at first sight, which broke Yu Ruyan's heart.
"You'll regret it!"
After saying this, Yu Ruyan left Long Zaitian and went to the Tang Empire to find Chu Chaosheng.
Chu Chaosheng was a member of the Chu Family of the Tang Empire and was now the Left Duke of the Tang Empire. At that time, Chu Chaosheng was just a talented collateral relative of the Royal Family.
However, at that time, Chu Chaosheng had already shown his great talent in Martial Dao, as well as his talent in scheming.
From the beginning of Bei Yuyao's appearance, the war between the three countries that had lasted for several years began to change.
In order to be with Bei Yuyao as soon as possible, Long Zaitian was even more decisive on the battlefield. In the last battle, he finally drove the allied forces of Gu Meng and Dongri out of the Tang Pass.
In that battle, the three countries suffered countless casualties. Among them, Long Zaitian alone slaughtered tens of thousands of enemies and forced the allied forces of the two countries to retreat. Finally, the war stopped!
However, Man Yi did not participate in that battle, which made Long Zaitian very confused.
Later, Long Zaitian finally learned that it was Chu Chaosheng of the Tang Empire who used Yu Ruyan to threaten and ambush Man Yi. Man Yi was seriously injured and his cultivation fell to the eighth level of the Martial Path!
Not only that, Chu Chaosheng also took the opportunity to find the pigeon communication between Man Yi and Long Zaitian, thus convicting Long Zaitian of "treason."
In addition, at that time, many experts from the Heavenly Mandate Institute, a powerful force that Bei Yuyao belonged to, were all dispatched to deal with Long Zaitian.
As for the reason why the Heavenly Mandate Institute disliked Long Zaitian, of course, it was because of Bei Yuyao's noble status. How could a country bumpkin like him be worthy of her?
With the cooperation of Chu Chaosheng, many experts of the Heavenly Mandate Institute finally expelled Long Zaitian from the Tang Empire after losing countless experts. They also captured Bei Yuyao and brought her back to the Heavenly Mandate Institute, never to come out again.
As for where Long Zaitian was, ordinary people naturally could not know. Perhaps only the people of the Heavenly Mandate Institute and Chu Chaosheng knew.
After Long Zaitian was expelled from the Tang Empire, Long Yu was secretly brought to the Feng family by Feng Changge under the protection of the Long family's grandfather.
In the entire Long family, only Long Yu's grandfather cared about him. Unfortunately, Long Zaitian could not be protected at that time.
The Heavenly Mandate Institute was too powerful. Even the Tang Empire's Royal Family had to bow in front of the people of the Heavenly Mandate Institute, let alone the Long family.
From then on, Chu Chaosheng became the Left Duke of the Tang Empire and one of the most powerful people in the entire Tang Empire.
As for Yu Ruyan, because of Chu Chaosheng's schemes, she lost her chastity to him and became pregnant with Chu Chaosheng's flesh and blood.
However, Yu Ruyan couldn't forget Long Zaitian from start to finish. She refused to marry Chu Chaosheng no matter what.
Later, Yu Ruyan took over as the leader of the Thousand Thread Clan and gave birth to a daughter named Yu Qianning.
"Yu Qianning is a real descendant of the Royal Family. No wonder she dared to call herself 'Princess Qian Si' and no one dared to refute her."
Long Yu's heart trembled. He finally knew the truth!
In this way, when Bai Yunzong went to the Thousand Thread Clan to demand an explanation for Elder Yu, he must have been hurt by Chu Chaosheng!
At that time, the "that person" that Bai Yunzong and the other elders of the Zhentian Clan were talking about could only be Chu Chaosheng.
Like Long Zaitian, Bai Yunzong was another commander of the Tang Empire's Martial Army at that time and had a good relationship with Long Zaitian. Naturally, Chu Chaosheng did not like him.
"No wonder Chu Chaosheng attacked Clan Leader Bai and agreed to use the Martial Arts Competition of the Seven Clans to decide the ownership of the Heavenly Suppression Skill …"
A cold light flashed in Long Yu's eyes.
Nearly 20 years after Chu Chaosheng banished Long Zaitian from the Tang Empire, he wanted to make a big move again, which was to weaken the influence of the seven clans of the Tang Empire.
As long as he obtained the skills of the seven clans of the Tang Empire, the ruling power of the Tang Empire's Royal Family would become stronger and the seven clans would become weaker and weaker.
"Yu Qianning's true strength has reached the fourth level of the Secret Realm of True Spirit. She must have been secretly trained by Chu Chaosheng. No wonder she was so confident in winning the Martial Arts Competition …"
Long Yu immediately felt the pressure on him increase.
The fourth level of the Secret Realm of True Spirit was still an unbeatable existence for him.
