Chapter 105
C105 – Murong Fu
Loong Chen suddenly recalled Walter of the Blood Race, who had transformed into a group of bats in an attempt to flee.
Could it be that he was still alive? Was Murong Yuntian’s demise connected to him?
“If you hadn’t prevented Yun Tian from exiting that secret realm, he wouldn’t have met his end!” Murong Fu seethed with anger.
“I activated the dimensional portal. I hold the authority to decide who can depart. Since he can’t meet my terms, I won’t allow his release.”
“I have no reason to shield him.”
Loong Chen scoffed, showing no hesitation in his response.
“I want you to share Yun Tian’s fate!”
Murong Fu’s fury intensified upon hearing this, and he swiftly lunged toward Loong Chen.
Dugu Lengyue promptly intercepted Loong Chen. Murong Fu then gestured, causing several walls of earth to encircle Dugu Lengyue.
“Earth Ability Awakened.”
Loong Chen squinted, surprised that Murong Fu possessed an Awakened talent of extraordinary caliber. This presented a significant challenge.
Murong Fu’s King Level strength alone was formidable, and now he had the added advantage of extraordinary talent.
“Halt!”
Lyi Jie shouted loudly and rushed toward them.
However, his speed couldn’t match Murong Fu’s. Before he could take more than a few steps, Murong Fu’s attack was already bearing down on Loong Chen.
“I can’t withstand it!”
That was Loong Chen’s initial thought. Almost instinctively, he activated Thunder God Descending, transforming his body into lightning.
Murong Fu’s palm passed through Loong Chen’s form, leaving him untouched.
As anticipated, lightning was impervious to all physical assaults, even those from King Level warriors.
“However, this combat skill drains a considerable amount of energy.”
Concurrently, Loong Chen identified a flaw in this combat technique.
It could be acknowledged that given his current strength, employing this combat skill proved to be quite taxing.
“Is this even possible?”
Murong Fu stared in astonishment as Loong Chen transformed into lightning before his eyes.
Simultaneously, the tingling sensation from the electric shock on his hand forced him to take a few steps backward.
“This is the Thunder God Descent from the Lightning Sect; you’re not supposed to know it!”
Murong Fu swiftly recognized this combat technique, recognizing it as the prized possession of the Lightning Sect and the ultimate technique of the Sect Master.
The Lightning Sect’s Sect Master had once employed this combat skill to confront the Invincible Dragon God.
At this moment, Murong Fu wasn’t merely looking at Loong Chen with anger; he was also gripped by fear.
“He must be eliminated.”
This was Murong Fu’s unwavering determination. Having already incurred Loong Chen’s enmity, he couldn’t permit Loong Chen to survive.
Otherwise, as he matured, he would undoubtedly bring catastrophe upon the Murong family.
With this in mind, Murong Fu ceased to hesitate and relentlessly attacked Loong Chen.
However, every one of Murong Fu’s attacks passed through Loong Chen’s body without causing any harm.
Loong Chen remained vigilant despite this, sensing that the Lightning Superpower within him was rapidly depleting, and he couldn’t sustain it for long.
“Murong Fu, cease this!”
At that moment, Lyi Jie finally arrived and launched a punch towards Murong Fu’s back.
Murong Fu turned around and delivered a powerful kick to Lyi Jie’s chest.
Lyi Jie was sent flying and landed on the ground, coughing up a mouthful of blood.
“Mr. Lyi!”
Loong Chen’s fists tightened as he understood the disparity in strength between himself and Murong Fu, yet Lyi Jie, fully aware of this gap, still chose to confront Murong Fu head-on.
Such a profound bond deeply moved Loong Chen.
“I may not be willing to battle Dugu Lengyue, but that doesn’t mean I won’t eliminate you. If you’re here to protect Loong Chen, then I’ll start by eliminating you!”
Murong Fu yelled and charged at Lyi Jie.
Lyi Jie struggled to rise, his body bearing the brunt of Murong Fu’s previous kick, leaving him severely injured.
His internal organs throbbed with excruciating pain.
Witnessing Murong Fu’s approach, Lyi Jie’s expression shifted, but he gestured for Loong Chen to escape.
Just as Murong Fu was about to strike him, Loong Chen materialized behind Murong Fu.
Loong Chen roared, his body undergoing a rapid transformation.
The Titan’s Power surged within him.
His colossal fist struck Murong Fu with tremendous force, launching him through the air like a projectile.
“Why haven’t you left yet?”
Lyi Jie yelled at Loong Chen, doubting Loong Chen’s ability to handle Murong Fu.
“This situation arose because of me. I won’t allow you to shoulder the blame for it.”
Loong Chen declared with unwavering resolve, then directed his words at Murong Fu.
“If you wish to end me, you’ll have to catch me first!”
With those words, Loong Chen sprinted toward the border battlefield.
“You little rascal, don’t try to escape!”
As expected, Murong Fu pursued Loong Chen relentlessly.
Loong Chen remained his primary target.
“Loong Chen!”
At this moment, Dugu Lengyue finally broke free from the earth wall Murong Fu had ensnared her in, but Loong Chen and Murong Fu had already vanished.
“Mr. Lyi, where did they go?”
Dugu Lengyue inquired urgently.
“They went in that direction. Damn it, my weakness is to blame!” Lyi Jie clenched his teeth, his eyes blazing with frustration.
He couldn’t prevent the intruders from infiltrating his territory, and this enraged Lyi Jie.
Dugu Lengyue also balled her fists, displaying a rare expression of anger on her typically composed face.
She refrained from pursuing them, recognizing the futility of doing so.
“If anything happens to Loong Chen, I promise you, Murong’s family will pay a heavy price!” Dugu Lengyue declared in a chilling tone, exuding a palpable aura of vengeance.
Her words sent shivers down the spines of those who had gathered to witness the commotion.
Even Lyi Jie was momentarily taken aback. It marked the first time he had witnessed such emotional intensity from Dugu Lengyue.
Dugu Lengyue promptly established a spatial portal. She understood that chasing after them would yield no results.
Thus, she planned to seek assistance from the Invincible Dragon God at the Dragon God Temple, hoping that Loong Chen could endure until then.
On the battlefield, Loong Chen relentlessly employed his spatial talents, but Murong Fu pursued him relentlessly.
Cold sweat drenched Loong Chen’s forehead, and he sensed that more than half of his energy had been depleted.
The expenditure of using Spatial Teleportation was substantial, and he could barely sustain the continuous teleportation.
They had now reached the depths of the battlefield, nearing the western continent’s borders.
Finally, Loong Chen came to a halt.
“Can’t run any longer, can you, brat? Accept your fate, and I might make your death swifter!” Murong Fu’s face contorted with malevolence. Observing Loong Chen’s pallid complexion, he realized that Loong Chen could no longer endure.
“You came to find me instead of seeking vengeance against the Blood Race, even though it’s clear they caused Murong Yuntian’s death. Are you afraid of them?” Loong Chen sneered, while discreetly regaining his strength.
“I’ll avenge the Blood Race, but you prevented Yun Tian from leaving the secret realm. If not for that, he wouldn’t have died. It’s time you joined him in the afterlife!” Murong Fu sensed Loong Chen’s recovery and, without further words, lunged at him.
