Long River Eternity

Youwen opened her mouth, but endless confusion surged in her heart, and her eyes stayed helplessly on her brother's tragically dead body on the ground.

A memory came flooding back to him. He recalled that bright day five years ago.

At that time, he had just broken through to the middle stage of the Heyuan Realm, and his mood was as clear as the sky, full of excitement and excitement. And since his shift was still several days away, he decided to go out and relax and enjoy himself.

During his flight, Youwen passed by a quiet valley when he suddenly heard the sounds of fierce fighting. Driven by curiosity, he quietly landed not far from the valley to investigate.

When he saw the two fighting parties clearly, he was shocked to find that it was Yang An!

At this moment, Yang Nian was standing not far away, while Yang An was engaged in a life-and-death struggle with a peak-level Heyuan Realm Gu Diao with a lion's head, a fish's body, and phoenix wings on its back. Although Yang An had just broken through to the late Heyuan Realm, his fight with the Gu Diao was evenly matched, and he showed no sign of weakness.

The Gu Diao roared angrily, and rolled up a huge water column to attack Yang An, its voice like thunder: "Human! Are you a mad dog? Aren't you tired of chasing me from the southern border to the eastern wilderness?"

Yang An calmly raised the gun in his hand and instantly shattered the water column. His tone was icy: "You have killed hundreds of people in Southern Xinjiang. Do you think you can rest easy by escaping to the Eastern Wasteland? Even if you escape to the Demon Emperor Palace today, you will be punished!"

Hearing this, You Wen sneered in his heart: "The demon clan in the Eastern Wilderness is naturally judged by my father. If we really go to the Demon King's Palace, how could it be your turn to speak?" Although he thought so in his heart, he did not show up, but hid behind a huge rock, watching the battle in front of him intently.

Ever since she lost to Yang An on the Pangu Ranking five years ago, Youwen has developed a strong interest in Yang An.

Although he had been defeated by top-ranked humans before, no one could pin him to the ground and beat him like Yang An did with his physical body.

Except for Yi, the others ahead of him were not known for their physical strength, and the old history between Yi and the Jinwu family meant that the two sides never challenged each other.

Since then, Youwen has been trying to find out about Yang An through various channels.

In the past two years, he only knew that Gonggong's death might be related to Yang An, and nothing else.

Because after Yang An returned from Beiming, the first thing he did was to consolidate his cultivation. The sequelae of the forced breakthrough cost him nearly a year.

In order to make up for the missed period of this year, Yang An immersed himself in the cultivation in Dao Court and hardly took a single step out of the house.

It was not until recent years that he broke through to the middle stage of Heyuan Realm and gradually stepped out of Dao Court and became famous on Pangu Continent.

You Wen learned that Yang An was a disciple of Taoist Master Fuxi, and the various rumors about him and his companions in the outside world made him even more excited.

Some say that Yang An and others are geniuses cultivated by Fuxi since childhood. Their cultivation is already very high, and they are out in the world to compete with the strongest people. Others say that they were picked up by Fuxi from a remote mountain village. They have only practiced for a few years, but each of them has extraordinary talent, especially Yang An, who is a genius among geniuses.

All this made Youwen more interested in Yang An, and an even more burning desire ignited in his heart.

The Golden Crows have been instilled with the concept of "survival of the fittest" by Chang Xi since childhood. They respect the strong and firmly believe that the power of the demon race far exceeds that of the human race.

Di Jun and Bo Lu were the goals that You Wen pursued. Even Chisongzi, a famous young man, seemed insignificant in his eyes.

However, the fierce battle with Yang An convinced Youwen. He was completely defeated both magically and physically.

Just as You Wen was lost in thought, wondering whether she should go up and talk to Yang An, the huge water knife condensed by the Gu Diao and Yang An's chaotic gun shadow suddenly collided in the air.

The deafening sound of collision echoed in the valley, the water knife and the gun shadow exploded instantly, and the chaotic aura and water knife fragments scattered like a storm.

One of the huge splashes of water shot towards Youwen like a cannonball, accurately smashing the huge rock in front of him into pieces.

As the boulder collapsed, Youwen's figure suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Yang An and Gu Diao looked at him at the same time. Yang An frowned slightly, wondering why You Wen appeared here.

A hint of cunning flashed in the eyes of the Gu Diao, and it took the opportunity to shoot towards You Wen.

"Human! If you keep chasing me, I will kill this boy!" The Gu Diao began to threaten Yang An while flying towards You Wen.

Gu Diao didn't know You Wen, but because he saw that he was a young man with red lips and white teeth and posed no threat, he planned to capture him as a hostage.

Seeing that the Gu Diao actually wanted to take You Wen as a hostage, Yang An couldn't help but smile strangely. He stared at the Gu Diao flying towards You Wen without saying a word.

When Youwen saw the Gu Diao rushing towards her, she was shocked and then became furious.

As a Golden Crow, he holds the highest bloodline among bird monsters. How could he tolerate this Gu Diao wanting to use him as a hostage?!

In an instant, Youwen transformed into a three-legged golden crow, her entire body ablaze with flames, standing majestically in the valley: "You idiot, open your dog eyes and see clearly who I am!"

When the Gu Diao saw You Wen reveal her true form, the Golden Crow, it was stunned for a moment, then bowed respectfully and quickly admitted its mistake: "I was blind and didn't realize it was Your Highness Golden Crow. This human has repeatedly tried to kill me, and I had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure. Please, Your Highness, help me."

"Hmph, where on earth did you run out from? Don't you know who is chasing you?" Youwen asked coldly.

The Gu Diao was startled, then shook his head: "I don't know, Your Highness, please explain."

"He is Yang An, the direct disciple of Taoist Master Fuxi. All his actions represent the Taoist Court. Do you want to rebel against the Taoist Court?" You Wen said with a sneer.

"What?" Gu Diao was shocked and quickly begged You Wen for mercy. "Your Highness, I only ate a few people. How could this alarm the Dao Court? Isn't it normal for the demon race to eat a few humans? Besides, we are in the Eastern Wilderness now. Please save my life!"

Yang An and You Wen frowned almost simultaneously when they heard Gu Diao's words. This guy was actually speaking without restraint in order to survive.

Although there have always been many conflicts and rifts between the human race and the demon race, these are things that cannot be made public. How can they be spoken out so openly?

You Wen cursed inwardly, "Idiot!", then looked at Yang An and clarified, "The demon race and humans have coexisted peacefully for thousands of years. How could they eat people so easily? Since Yang An is here, everything will naturally be decided by him. After all, the East Wasteland Wood Sect is also part of the Dao Court."

Upon hearing this, a trace of despair flashed across the Gu Diao's eyes, which was then replaced by ferocity.

He suddenly pounced on Youwen, and a large amount of water gushed out of his body, wrapping around himself and the Golden Crow in front of him like a huge wave.

"Since you can't help me, just be a hostage!" shouted Gu Diao.

"How dare you!" Youwen shouted angrily and retreated quickly.

However, You Wen, who was in the middle stage of He Yuan Realm, was much slower than Gu Diao and was swallowed up by the water in the blink of an eye.

The water flow turned into a huge water ball, wrapping up Gu Diao and You Wen, and then rushed away into the distance.

Seeing the Gu Diao flee, Yang An's expression remained calm, as if he had expected this. He raised his spear and hurled it suddenly, with a tiny gray ball on the tip. It was "Destruction!"
