Chapter 594: An Invitation
"I admire you," said the Xie family ancestor. "It’s certainly cause for celebration for someone like you to emerge from the Great Xia martial lineage. Kid, surrender now, and I will spare your life."
“Boss, this kid is on the kill list.”
“The Eden envoy specifically ordered his death.”
“He just killed Old Six.”
“Boss, he’s the one responsible for wiping out your entire Xie family...”
The other four intruders immediately reacted, visibly alarmed.
The Xie family ancestor waved dismissively, exuding confidence. “No matter. If he could take down Old Six in close combat, Li Xiaofei is truly an unparalleled genius of martial arts. If he willingly joins Eden, I’m certain the envoy will reconsider his order. Recruiting him would be a great boon to our strength.”
Li Xiaofei studied the five people before him. Indeed, they all had the faces of Great Xia natives. They all had black eyes and yellow skin, but they all looked young. They seemed no older than twenty-five or twenty-six. Even the Xie family ancestor, who was over four hundred years old, had an unnaturally youthful appearance. Li Xiaofei speculated that the five of them, including the now-dead Old Six, were likely from the same generation.
Monsters who had lived for more than four centuries. This only fueled his curiosity. The Great Saint Realm was considered the pinnacle on Earth, and allowed one to greatly extend their lifespan. If one avoided the Five Disasters, living for over four hundred years wasn’t unheard of. But preserving one’s youthful appearance? That was absolutely impossible. Even for Great Saints, their vitality would inevitably decline, and their strength would wane.
