My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

Everyone present gazed at Li Longhu in the sky with stunned looks. Suddenly, Li Longhu's slender and lean body seemed, at this moment, to turn into a mountain, immensely majestic and unbearable to directly behold.

They sensed the Sky-Man aura emanating from Li Longhu. At first, they were shocked for quite a while, then many of the strong ones from the imperial families and dynasties began to curse under their breaths.

"Damn it! The Great Yan Dynasty truly has no shame. We haven't had any Sky-Men intervene yet, and they, disregarding martial ethics, directly use a Sky-Man to crush us!"

"Regardless, we cannot allow the remnants of Great Chu to fall into the hands of Great Yan. We must kill the Town-Nation Duke's Heir and Prince Ning's Commandery Princess first!"

"Kill!"

Many experts discussed amongst themselves.

After a brief shock, they soon realized that Li Longhu, this Sky-Man's appearance, was undoubtedly for the sake of the remnants of Great Chu.

Great Chu fell too quickly at the time.

Its secrets had not been completely unearthed, and it perished entirely.

Now, the remnants of Great Chu, in the eyes of the World Royal Family and imperial families, were like glittering treasures.

Even if they couldn't obtain it themselves, they were unwilling to see Li Longhu and the royal household of Great Yan acquire it!

So, after a brief shock, the people attacked Cheng Guang and Prince Ning's Commandery Princess even more fiercely.

The people were temporarily held back by the strong ones from the Bureau of the Lamp, unable to close in even half a step.

However, the defense line of the Bureau of the Lamp kept shrinking, and within two hours, the Bureau could no longer withstand the siege from the many great experts around them.

Defeat was already a foreseeable event.

Qian Siyuan's face was smeared with blood from someone unknown, his hair somewhat disheveled. Holding knives in both hands, he fought fiercely with the enemy, and suddenly noticed Li Longhu walking towards Qin Beifeng—the terrifying aura of the Heavenly Human Realm, like a great mountain, suffocated him to the point where he could hardly breathe.

His eyes widened, staring fixedly at Li Longhu in the distance, grinding his teeth as he yelled to Cheng Guang.

"Princely Heir, get out of here! Hurry, leave!"

Qian Siyuan's usually smiling face was nowhere to be seen, replaced by seriousness and madness.

He raked his own hair with a hand, his blood smeared across it like paint, adding a ferocious touch to his appearance.

"With me here, no one can get within a step of our Princely Heir!"

Several strong enemies attacked Qian Siyuan and Li Zhengyang by his side, and continuously, voices came from their mouths.

"We respect you people of the Bureau of the Lamp as brave men, but how can you protect them with so many of us besieging you?"

"If you surrender now, we might still spare your life!"

"That person is not your Princely Heir! The real Town-Nation Duke's Heir might have been killed by this Crown Prince of Great Chu already."

Despite the constant booming sounds of Qi all around and the many strong voices, they still clearly reached Qian Siyuan's ears.

Qian Siyuan's expression unchanged, he swung his knife towards the attackers, responding with action!

Li Zhengyang found time to repel the incoming enemies, retreating to Qian Siyuan's side, panting. A smile crossed his stern face, "Old Qian, today let's see who will be the last to fall."

Qian Siyuan swung his knife, the cold light flashing across the blade, scattering the fresh blood on it.

"Before I die, I absolutely will not let anyone get close to the Princely Heir."

Li Zhengyang laughed heartily, "Good! Well said!"

"Follow me! Kill!"

Their figures were a blur, indistinct to the eye.

Cheng Guang realized that his surroundings, covered by the night, had become a battlefield stretching for thousands of miles around the teahouse. The cold gleam of weapons flashed intermittently, and the booming sounds of Qi were unceasing, thundering like drums.

He heard Qian Siyuan's words, heard him urging him to run fast.

He saw the actions of the Bureau of the Lamp's people, saw them protecting him with their lives.

"You... you should go quickly..."

"It's better if I stay behind."

Prince Ning's Commandery Princess dropped from the sky, landing beside Cheng Guang, and slowly spoke.

After speaking, Prince Ning's Commandery Princess slowly turned her head, her splendid visage staring at Cheng Guang. At that moment, it was as if she finally understood why she had felt a certain closeness to Cheng Guang from the beginning.

That closeness stemming from their bloodline was something she couldn't fathom.

Only now did Prince Ning's Commandery Princess realize why she had felt an inexplicable closeness to Cheng Guang—it was solely because he, too, was of Great Chu.

Aside from herself, he was the only other person in this world with Great Chu's bloodline.

Prince Ning's Commandery Princess felt mixed emotions, and at the same time, it seemed she also understood why Cheng Guang, even though he had detected her identity from the beginning, hadn't moved against her.

After her words, seeing Cheng Guang's peerlessly handsome face, as calm as still water without a ripple of change, she sighed again.

It seemed she felt that Cheng Guang not responding meant he was unwilling to leave her behind and go alone.

She spoke again:

"If I stay, having captured me, they will not focus on you for a while. Then, you can hide as long as you can. I was supposed to be dead, brought back to life after thousands of years by a lingering obsession. Living these decades has already been driven by a lingering obsession."

"Otherwise, I would have been buried with Great Chu beneath this earth."

"You're different, you're still young, you... need to keep living."

Prince Ning's Commandery Princess said softly, her starry eyes gazing at Cheng Guang, her tone gentle and flowing, as if she was entrusting her last words to him.
