Chapter 799: Chapter 587: The Key to the Opening of the Ancient Battlefield

Deep within Donglin Valley, a charmingly captivating woman in pink strolled across the snow plains. Clad in a light veil, her fair skin seemingly appeared and disappeared, as if she had no fear of the cold.

"Wan’er, what brings you to my place today?"

Upon hearing this voice, the woman in pink smiled and said in a sweet voice.

"Well, I’ve got some news and thought I’d come to tell big brother first!"

"Your news? I never know if it’s real or fake!"

The voice rose again, and before the woman in pink on the snow plains, a bare-chested middle-aged man suddenly appeared, his body covered with intersecting white patterns, emitting a fierce murderous aura.

"Big brother Luo Hu, how can you still not trust me? When have I ever deceived you?"

Wan’er made a pitiable appearance, as if she had suffered a great wrong. Seeing this, Luo Hu couldn’t help but give a wry smile, evidently plagued with a headache!

"Alright, alright! I know I can’t stand your act, out with it!"

Luo Hu waved his hand, as if conceding defeat, and upon seeing this, Wan’er smiled faintly and said.

"A little demon from the Earth Immortal Realm has come here today, claiming descent from my lineage, the Snow Wolf Tribe. She asked me some questions about the deep parts of Donglin Valley, and I found it very suspicious!"

"What kind of questions did she ask?"

"Many things, but I only told her half-truths about the Ancient Battlefield ruins. As expected, she must have gone back to report!"

"I think it won’t be long before I see the person behind her!"

"Are you worried that the Human Race has already found the key to unlock the Ancient Battlefield and is sending people to gather intelligence?"

Luo Hu knew Wan’er’s methods well; the information she provided would surely attract the person behind the scenes. But what he was truly concerned about was the key to unlock the Ancient Battlefield.

The Ancient Battlefield was sealed by the forebears of the Human Race with a Complete Celestial Eight Trigrams Array Map. To open it, one must find the eight keys corresponding to the Eight Trigrams Map.

Now, four keys lie deep within Donglin Valley, one with Luo Hu, one with Wan’er, one with Li Long, and one with Jiang Feng.

The remaining four keys, as per known information, are each held by the Royal Family of the Wangs, Wang Siyun of Ice Cold City, and the Jinshi Zhang Family.

The last key’s whereabouts are unknown.

This is also why the Ancient Battlefield has remained closed for so long.

Now someone, clearly aware that the deep parts of Donglin Valley are sacred to the Human Race, still sends people to snoop around, and it is even the Snow Wolf Tribe, kin of the Wolf Tribe.

Their actions are suspiciously obvious!

"Hmm! That’s why I’ve come to discuss this matter with you first, big brother!"

"You really do care about me, Wan’er. Li Long and Jiang Feng are closer to you, yet you didn’t go to them and instead came to the snow plains, the farthest from your territory."

Luo Hu was skeptical, his words rife with distrust for Wan’er, the Wolf Tribe is adept at deception, and distinguishing truth from falsehood is difficult.

"Big brother Luo Hu, you’re quite fired up. Even from a great distance, I could sense a taste of gunpowder!"

The voice came before the figure, and suddenly, in the sky above the snow plains descended a woman in blue, a pair of glacially clear wings on her back. As the woman in blue touched down, her icy wings dematerialized and vanished into thin air.

"Looks like my Great Snow Plains is going to get lively today, right, Li Long?"

"Haha! Nothing escapes big brother’s sight!"

From behind Wan’er, within the void, a storm of snow and ice whirled into being as a man’s figure slowly materialized, immense in stature, seemingly taller than both Wan’er and Jiang Feng combined.

Deep within Donglin Valley, four personages at the Peak of the Celestial Immortal had gathered!

In the Human Realm, they all stood at the Peak of the Celestial Immortal, but Su Wan’er, Jiang Feng, and Li Long all showed sufficient respect for Luo Hu.

That was because Luo Hu’s White Tiger Killing Patterns were always in a state of seal, and once released, no one could be his match, for even among Celestial Immortals, there are levels of strength.

"Now that everyone is here, let’s discuss this. The Imperial Royal Family made a pact with us: the Human Race shall not enter the deep parts of the valley, and we four shall not leave, nor shall we interfere in the Human Race’s affairs. But now, it seems the Human Race has come to us first!"

Su Wan’er finally spoke the truth. She had left a Spiritual Sense Imprint on Lang Ye and had seen Wang Yang, who was on his way here!

"Sister Wan’er, do you mean to let this young member of the Human Race find the last key for us?"

Li Long asked tentatively; Su Wan’er’s implication seemed to be just that. Although the keys of the Bagua Formation Diagram can unlock the gates to the Ancient Battlefield, whether these keys would be of any use once inside is yet unconfirmed.

Based on the Demon Race’s understanding of the Human Race’s forebears, these keys surely have other uses, perhaps even guiding the way to legacies.

Without these four keys as leverage, how could the Imperial Royal Family have reached an agreement with the Demon Race?

"He is based at the West Mountain Ice Cave on the outskirts of Ice Mountain Ridge, with around twenty people. He has no reason to refuse our conditions!"

As Su Wan’er spoke up to this point, a ruthless gleam flashed in her eyes, unlike the Demon Race, the Human Race highly valued emotions.

By exploiting this weakness, Wang Yang could be controlled.

At least, that was what Su Wan’er thought.

"This is not appropriate! Putting aside that the last key’s whereabouts are unknown, personally, I don’t approve of such underhanded methods!"

Luo Hu shook his head and spoke solemnly; he may prioritize warfare, but he had his principles. Taking advantage of someone’s desperate situation, blackmailing someone—these were things Tong Hu couldn’t do.

"There’s no need for big brother to get involved in this, and news about the last key has already emerged!"

Su Wan’er knew Luo Hu would not agree and did not persist with the topic. She changed the subject and revealed news that shocked everyone.
