Dragon Blooded War God

While Long Chen was immersed in his cultivation, he suddenly heard someone approaching quickly outside. He had made it known that he did not want to be disturbed, and if it was not something important, Suyan would not have allowed anyone to disturb him.

Long Chen knew that something had happened, so he emerged from his cultivation state. His eyes sprang open and he stood up. When he opened the door, a slightly panicking Suyan stood in front of him and said hurriedly, “Big Brother, the people from the Divine Wind Faction are here! They’re looking for you!”

“They’re here?” Long Chen gasped. He recalled how he had snatched away Feng Zhilin’s Martial God Tombstone and the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance. News of this had long spread to other people, so it was only normal that the Divine Wind Faction was here.

“Father, Uncle Lei, and the others are in a standoff against them. I came to tell you to be careful. They’re here for you, so don’t go there. Father and the others can deal with it,” said Suyan, looking at him with concern.

Long Chen smiled and said, “Since they’re looking for me, how could I stay here? Yan’er, stay here and don’t go out. I’ll go meet them.”

Long Chen was not as weak as he once was.

If the Divine Wind Faction dared come here, then their clan leaders were likely present too. Feng Zhilin, being the person who was directly involved, was sure to be here too. Wu Guangyu was usually by her side, and if he had come, Mo Xiaolang was surely with him. Long Chen had a faint sense that Mo Xiaolang was not far away right now.

“What?” Suyan had come here to tell Long Chen not to go, but to her shock, he intended to go. She quickly stretched her arms out and stood in front of him, saying, “Big Brother, there are many people from the Divine Wind Faction outside! And they’re all aiming for you. I don’t think you should go, or you’ll be in danger …”

“Who can threaten me at my current strength? Also, I have your father protecting me,” Long Chen said with a smile, gently pushing her arms away.

“Alright, then. I want to go with you too.” Suyan clutched his arm, like she was afraid he would run off. He looked at her in exasperation, then nodded.

He knew their approximate location without needing Suyan to explain. With a flash, he quickly charged towards that place, and soon, using the Soul Swallowing Gaze, he spotted them five hundred meters away. Long Chen sensed that indeed, there were many masters present. Many familiar people were there, and most importantly, Mo Xiaolang was there too. Wu Guangyu, Feng Zhilin, and the others were present as well.

Long Chen only needed a second to cover five hundred meters, so he quickly arrived on the Thunder and Demon clans’ side. There were many people gathered there, including the Seven Sect Elders of the Demon clan, the Seven Thunder Elders, and many disciples of both clans. There were even many regular cultivators surrounding them, watching from afar. Suxue, Bai Lan, Lei Ji, and the others were standing in front of the crowd.

In front of them were the people of the Divine and Wind clans, who wore either all-white or light-green clothing. Their outfit choice made it easy to distinguish their identities. The leader of the Divine Wind Faction was a lady in a white dress. Her face was veiled, and Long Chen sensed that she was at least as powerful as Bai Lan was. Next to her was a long-bearded old man who looked like a righteous immortal.

They were the Divine clan’s matriarch, Wu Lian, as well as the Wind clan’s patriarch, Feng Qing. Behind them were Wu Guangyu, Feng Zhilin, and over ten Eighth and Ninth Earthly Martial Staged cultivators from their clans. Mo Xiaolang, who had been separated from Long Chen for almost half a year, was standing behind Wu Guangyu.

Everyone else was looking at Wu Lian and Feng Qing, but Long Chen was looking at Mo Xiaolang. Mo Xiaolang also saw Long Chen, and a wave of emotion filled his eyes. However, there were other people present, so the mature Mo Xiaolang quickly suppressed them.

Long Chen was the same. He carefully regarded Mo Xiaolang and found that his aura was much, much stronger than before. Previously, he had only been a Category Four King-tier, but now he was at least a Category Eight or Nine. He was just a step away from becoming an Emperor-tier demonic beast.

After coming here, Long Chen had not seen any other Emperor-tier beasts.

However, the gigantic Ancient Graveyard probably had many of them.

It seemed like Wu Guangyu had fed Mo Xiaolang a lot of precious treasures during this time. Long Chen felt relieved when he saw that Mo Xiaolang was getting stronger and was not under Wu Guangyu’s control.

Mo Xiaolang and Long Chen were the only ones here who knew how to use the language of beasts, so when Long Chen arrived, Mo Xiaolang said to him, “Big Brother, I heard things about you. You’ve gotten much stronger, and I have reached the Category Nine King-tier. Should I take this chance to break free from Wu Guangyu and return to your side?”

Mo Xiaolang probably had enough of being by that bastard’s side.

“How is life on that side? Is your life in danger?” Long Chen asked gently.

“Of course not. That brat treasures me a lot, and feeds me a lot of fire-type treasures. In the beginning, he used a hypnosis technique on me and thought it could tame me. He doesn’t know that I was just pretending.”

Long Chen thought for a while. This was not the time to kill Wu Guangyu. Long Chen had to find a chance to kill him to get Mo Xiaolang back. The Divine Wind Faction was here to look for trouble today, and if he asked Mo Xiaolang to come back now, it would only worsen the conflict between the factions.

“There are around twenty days left until the Nine Clans Martial Youth Competition. When I beat Wu Guangyu there, we can reunite,” Long Chen said after coming to a decision.

“Alright.” Mo Xiaolang nodded. He could easily endure twenty days or so. However, he had some doubts. He had stayed by Wu Guangyu’s side all this time and knew how strong he was—especially after receiving the Azure Lotus Lord’s inheritance. Could Long Chen defeat him at the Martial Youth Competition?

But he would never voice his doubts.

He knew that Long Chen would have his ways. This was how much he trusted Long Chen.

Long Chen and Mo Xiaolang had only taken a short while to communicate using the language of beasts. He looked at Mo Xiaolang for a while more, then diverted his gaze to other people. However, after seeing Mo Xiaolang, his desire to be reunited intensified. He needed to beat Wu Guangyu in the finals so he could snatch Mo Xiaolang back.

As for the other people, their gazes were all on Long Chen the moment he appeared. There was curiosity in many of their eyes, but there was one particularly fiery glare. Long Chen looked at the source. It was Feng Zhilin. After experiencing the two major incidents involving him, Long Chen was undeniably the person she hated the most in the world. Snatching the Martial God Tombstone and the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance were minor incidents. Most importantly, Long Chen had stripped her of her clothing and seen her naked body.

That incident had left an unerasable mark in her mind.

She would occasionally think of that day even now. After suppressing her emotions for such a long time, she could not wait to rip him apart.

When she saw Long Chen show up with nonchalance on his face, Feng Zhilin’s eyes almost burst into flames. She took two steps forwards, unable to wait any longer, but Wu Guangyu quickly pulled her arm. He whispered in her ear, “Zhilin, do you hate him that much? I’m going to be your husband soon; let me kill him.”

When Wu Guangyu spoke, she felt his hot breath on her ear, which gave her a fuzzy sensation. A red blush appeared on her face, but when she recalled how Long Chen had also given her a similar feeling, the feeling in her heart quickly disappeared.

“Zhilin, what’s wrong?” asked Wu Guangyu.

“N-nothing …” Feng Zhilin said hurriedly. Her eyes were still fixed on Long Chen. She gritted her teeth and said, “I must kill that bastard today! The Seven Star Lord’s inheritance is mine!”

“Mhm. Be patient. Your grandfather and my mother are speaking to the Thunder Demon Faction.” Wu Guangyu’s handsome face broke into a warm smile. He looked at Long Chen and regarded the teenager who had once escaped him. To his surprise, the teenager had reached the Seventh Earthly Martial Stage.

He improved so fast! It must be because of the Martial God Tombstone. I can’t believe that the person I let go because he didn’t seem important ended up reaching such a high level. However, when a person without any background gets a valuable treasure in the Ancient Graveyard, isn’t it just a death wish?

There was a flash of bloodlust in his eyes.

He suddenly recalled that Mo Xiaolang once belonged to Long Chen and quickly turned around. When he saw that Mo Xiaolang was looking at himself with a loyal gaze, without even glancing at Long Chen, he was relieved.

That beast-taming technique was taught to me by the best beast-taming expert in the clan. He has tamed thousands of beasts, so there should not be a problem. The Sun Devouring Wolf is extraordinary, and if I can make him reach the Emperor-tier, it will be a great boost to our clan’s might. If he gets strong, I get stronger too. However, finding a treasure that can take him to the Emperor-tier has been difficult. I have already searched through the whole Fire District at this point.

While Wu Guangyu was thinking about this, the Wind clan’s patriarch, Feng Qing, confirmed Long Chen’s identity. He looked at Bai Lan and Lei Ji calmly, then said in a slow, mild, manner, “Since the person we’re looking for is here, everything is much easier. The Wind clan secured the Martial God Tombstone at Black Gold City and we were about to collect it. However, this nameless, irrelevant character, Long Chen, used a sly trick to take away something that belonged to the Wind clan. Then, within the Seven Star Lord’s tomb, Zhilin had already gone in, but this irrelevant character caused trouble once more. He snatched away my granddaughter’s inheritance … “
