Dragon-Blooded War God

After making his decision, Long Chen headed towards Scarlet Water City.

Initially, he wanted to go directly to the Underworld Estate. However, he was unsure about Xiong Jun’s situation and decided to check on him.

Logically speaking, Zhao Kongming should have left because he had failed to get the Heavenly Fortune Pill. Long Chen was only returning to Scarlet Water City to confirm his thoughts.

If he was right, Zhao Kongming was likely the most common kind of Underworld Soldier, one at the Seventh Heavenly Martial Stage. Long Chen had now reached the Third Heavenly Martial Stage, so he could barely fight a Seventh Heavenly Martial Stage cultivator.

Of course, it was only barely.

If he wanted to defeat one, it would be quite difficult.

He snuck into Scarlet Water City once again. This time, he hurried directly to the inn where he had previously stayed. It was not a huge city, so it didn’t take long to arrive. He remembered which room Zhao Kongming was in, and using his Soul Swallowing Gaze, he could easily look inside it. As expected, Zhao Kongming had not left yet, and Xiong Jun was there too.

Zhao Kongming had said that he would leave Scarlet Water City immediately after he got the Heavenly Fortune Pill, so why was he still here? Something was wrong. Also, Long Chen sensed that Xiong Jun’s consciousness was withering, and he was barely breathing.

Long Chen was immediately on guard.

If that was the case, not only did Long Chen need to rescue Xiong Jun, he also had to kill Zhao Kongming. Zhao Kongming knew that Xiong Jun was from the Barbaric Bear Tribe, so if Long Chen did not kill him, he could bring disaster to the rest of the tribe as well.

At this point, Long Chen could not back out of this. There was some friendship between him and Xiong Jun after all. Therefore, Long Chen charged directly into the room, and in the blink of an eye, he blasted the door open and looked inside.

What he saw was similar to what Feng Xuan had done to Huangfu Qi. There was a wooden tub filled with green liquid. Various herbs floated in the liquid, and it emitted a pungent smell, though Zhao Kongming kept the scent isolated in this room.

There were two people in the wooden tub with their eyes closed, and they were Xiong Jun and Zhao Kongming. Xiong Jun had a fatigued expression and his eyes were closed. His tanned skin had turned extremely pale, as if he could die at any moment.

“So this is what he’s been doing. This is a method to forcefully take another person’s Natural Body. While this method is useless to peak-level Natural Bodies, he can extract some of the Barbaric Body’s essence. Of course, the price will be Xiong Jun’s life,” said Little Cat between curses, clearly very upset.

Long Chen did not care how strong the other party was at this point. After barging into the room, he punched the wooden tub. It exploded with a loud boom, and the liquid sprayed in all directions. Long Chen was prepared, so when the tub exploded, he immediately pulled Xiong Jun and placed him in the Primordial Realm.

The medicinal liquid rained down and ricocheted off Long Chen’s body. Zhao Kongming had been focused on absorbing the Barbaric Body, so he did not notice Long Chen until Xiong Jun was snatched away.

“You?” Zhao Kongming looked at Long Chen with surprise. He had a faint memory that Long Chen and Xiong Jun knew each other. But Long Chen was only at the Second Heavenly Martial Stage, so how dare he come to interrupt his business?

“Hey, brat, hand Xiong Jun back if you know what’s good for you. Or else …” Zhao Kongming knew that this matter couldn’t spread, so he threatened Long Chen. He had only taken a bit of what Xiong Jun had to offer, so how could he be willing to let Long Chen take him away?

“Zhao Kongming, I’ll wait for you outside Scarlet Water City. Come if you dare.” Long Chen took one cold glance at him, then turned to leave.

“Huh?” Zhao Kongming was stunned. What was Long Chen up to? He was just some nosy kid, so what right did he have to talk to an Underworld Soldier like that?

“Right, I’ve forgotten to tell you one more thing. I was the one who bought the Heavenly Fortune Pill,” Long Chen said when he was at the door. Then he turned into a blood-red ray of light and disappeared from Zhao Kongming’s sight.

If news of this spread throughout Scarlet Water City, it would not benefit Zhao Kongming at all.

Long Chen’s final sentence successfully made Zhao Kongming take him more seriously.

“It was you?” Zhao Kongming finally understood that this brat that he had overlooked seemed to be someone with some capability.

“How dare you interrupt my business! It doesn’t matter how capable you are. I’m going to chop you into ten thousand pieces!” He snickered darkly, then gave chase in the direction Long Chen had gone. Since Long Chen had challenged him, he was sure to be there.

Along the way, Long Chen hurriedly asked Little Cat about Xiong Jun’s condition.

“There’s not much we can do. His life is not in danger, but the guy has taken one-third of his potential. This will greatly impact his future achievements, and it could be a problem for him to reach the Divine Martial Realm. As for his current state, he will fully recover after resting for some time.”

Long Chen pursed his lips without a word.

Xiong Jun was a teenager filled with ambition. He was passionate and sincere about wanting Zhao Kongming as his teacher. Yet he had been hurt severely by the very same person.

The fire of rage burned in Long Chen when he looked at Xiong Jun’s pale face.

Looks like the scheming, massacres, and fighting are all much more intense in the Royal Territories compared to the Ten Thousand Nations Territory.

Long Chen finally understood this.

The only way one could live well was by killing. They could only rely on themselves.

After exiting Scarlet Water City, Long Chen continued heading in the same direction as last time. He sensed that Zhao Kongming was catching up, considering he had only used Blood Warp for a brief moment. The Scarlet Water River, the river that flowed through Scarlet Water City, was in front of him. Long Chen followed the river upstream.

Very quickly, Scarlet Water City disappeared behind him. There was no one around, and only the dark grassland surrounded him. When he sensed that Zhao Kongming had caught up, he turned around.

Zhao Kongming had to die, or Long Chen wouldn’t be able to extinguish the hatred in his heart. Furthermore, if he did not kill Zhao Kongming, the Barbaric Bear Tribe could end up in trouble.

However, Long Chen did not know exactly how strong this Underworld Soldier was.

Zhao Kongming strode over and looked at him with a smile. When he was ten meters away from Long Chen, he stopped walking and eyed Long Chen with great interest. “What is your name?”

“Is there a point in asking?” Long Chen knew that Zhao Kongming was absolutely confident that he would emerge victorious. With a cold huff, he activated the Dragon Soul Transformation and charged ahead!

That was who Long Chen was—a person who killed decisively!

At the Third Heavenly Martial Stage, he could use the Emperor Vanquishers and the Emperor’s Manual!

As he charged forward, red armor covered his whole body, painting him as the vicious king of massacre. The gloves appeared on his hands too!

The glove on the right was golden. It shone and radiated heat. On the left, the glove was pitch-black with a cold and terrifying aura.

Two small domains with a radius of half a meter appeared around his hands, one golden and one black. This was the power of the Emperor Vanquishers.

“Five Emperor Palm!”

Finally, Long Chen activated the power from the Five Emperors’ inheritance.

He was going to use three out of the four items the Five Emperors left behind for him. The fighting in the Royal Territories was just too intense; Long Chen had previously thought that it would be a long time before he needed to use these life-saving items.

If he did not have the Five Emperors’ treasures, his combat abilities would only be at the Third Heavenly Martial Stage at maximum here. He would not even be able to beat Xiong Jun. This showed that he had made the right decision to work hard for the Five Emperors’ treasures.

“What are those gloves? They’re Divine-tier!”

When Long Chen took out the Emperor Vanquishers, Zhao Kongming’s eyes shone with greed. The powerful aura that erupted from Long Chen’s body was getting very close to Zhao Kongming, and this was also unbelievable to him!

Of course, the thing that attracted Zhao Kongming most was Long Chen’s eye-catching Divine-tier weapons—the Emperor Vanquishers!

Initially, he only wanted to chase after Long Chen and snatch Xiong Jun back, then kill this troublesome brat. He had not expected such an amazing opportunity to present itself before him.

Thank you so much for bringing me such amazing luck! First it was the Barbaric Body, now Divine-tier gloves. This is my ticket to fame and fortune! Seeing as you’re treating me so well, I’ll give you a swift death.

Zhao Kongming had always been the type to hide his ambitions. He had been an Underworld Soldier for a long time, but was always ranked low. This was his chance to rise up.

He was usually a calm man, but he was starting to go crazy from the temptation in front of him.

How many people could remain sane in front of a Divine-tier weapon? This weapon was in the hands of a teenager he could easily kill, so how could it not drive him crazy?

If the mayor were here, he would also be like this.

Zhao Kongming’s emotions were in Long Chen’s hands.

“You’re looking for death.” Long Chen laughed coldly. His energy had surged to its peak and his essence was equivalent to that of a peak Fifth Heavenly Martial Stage cultivator. With the Yin Yang Sword Soul and a weapon like the Emperor Vanquishers, it was actually possible for him to kill his opponent!

“Tyrannosaurus Punch!”
