Chapter 524 - 523: Come Up Anyway
"Impossible!"
"I cannot be defeated!"
"How can this be possible?"
"..."
Zhuo Wulong stared at his miserable state, his face a mask of shock. He kept shaking his head, unable to accept the reality before him.
Just then, a figure flashed into view. When Zhuo Wulong looked up, he saw Long Chen standing before him, and an icy chill assailed him. Zhuo Wulong’s heart trembled violently, his face instantly turning pale.
Long Chen looked down at him condescendingly. "No wonder you survived that. So, you were wearing armor. It looks like a fine piece. I’ll be taking it."
As he spoke, Long Chen reached out. A powerful suction force immediately ripped the armor from Zhuo Wulong’s body and pulled it into his hand.
"Dammit!" Zhuo Wulong seethed.
Long Chen glanced at the armor and smiled faintly before storing it in his Storage Ring.
An intense rage burned in Zhuo Wulong’s heart. He had never suffered such humiliation and desperately wanted to kill Long Chen on the spot. To his despair, however, his internal injuries were so severe that he had the will but not the strength. He was simply powerless to deal with Long Chen.
In desperation, Zhuo Wulong cast a pleading look at the onlookers. To his astonishment, they all chose to ignore him, pretending not to see a thing. After all, they had just witnessed Long Chen’s terrifying strength. Even Zhuo Wulong was no match for him. If they were to act against Long Chen now, they would probably die without even knowing how it happened.
Seeing that no one would step up to help, Zhuo Wulong, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, barked orders at the remaining members of the Domain Alliance. "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and attack him! Take him down!"
Though terrified, the members of the Domain Alliance had no choice but to obey Zhuo Wulong. The next second, their eyes locked onto Long Chen. They drew their weapons and charged, launching a flurry of attacks.
Zhuo Wulong seized the opportunity to rally the crowd. "This fellow only seems so strong because he’s using some secret technique to boost his power! Once his time is up, he won’t be able to maintain his current combat power and will likely fall into a weakened state.
"If we can just stall him, we’ll regain the initiative in this battle! When that happens, he’ll be nothing more than an ant for us to crush! If you don’t help stall him now, you’ll be the next to die!"
At first, the onlookers were unmoved. They suspected Zhuo Wulong was just trying to trick them into sharing his fate. Now, however, they suddenly realized the danger. Just as Zhuo Wulong had said, if they didn’t help stall Long Chen, they would indeed be the next to suffer.
In the next instant, everyone’s eyes locked onto Long Chen. Their gazes were piercing, as if they were predators who had cornered their prey, wanting to kill him with their stares alone.
Facing the attacks from the Domain Alliance members, Long Chen merely gave them an indifferent glance. His eyes narrowed.
The next moment, the Blackwind Sword shot out, transforming into a streak of cold light as it swept toward the Domain Alliance members.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
The Sword Qi unleashed by the Blackwind Sword contained immense power. The members of the Domain Alliance were completely unable to resist as it pierced through their bodies. Blood splattered everywhere, filling the air with the thick stench of gore. In a single instant, all of them were slaughtered by the Blackwind Sword.
Witnessing this scene, the onlookers felt their hearts leap into their throats.
The Xueying Sect was one of the Great Sects of the God-Devil Domain, infamous for their ruthlessness. They killed without remorse, and calling them devils would not be an overstatement. But now, Xue Wuying and the other members of the Xueying Sect frowned deeply, a chill running down their spines as fear flashed in their eyes. After witnessing Long Chen’s methods, how could we call ourselves devils? He’s the true arch-fiend!
While everyone stood frozen in shock, Long Chen’s cold, murderous gaze swept over the crowd. Feeling that chilling gaze upon them, everyone’s heart lurched. Their faces grew heavy with apprehension.
The members of the Divine Blade Sect, Heavenly Water Sect, Feiyu City, and Xuanyue Valley—the Four Great Sects—were utterly terrified. Fearing that Long Chen would target them, they subconsciously shuffled aside, trying their best to stay out of his line of sight. They knew full well that after everything they had done to him, if Long Chen decided to move against them now, they would be unable to resist. A gruesome death would be their only fate.
"Anyone else want to die? Step forward!"
Long Chen’s voice was ice. He had already activated the Divine Demon Secret Technique Dragon Blood Boiling and couldn’t maintain it for long. He had to establish his authority and make everyone fear him. Only then could he leave this place safely.
Hearing Long Chen’s words, the onlookers exchanged hesitant glances. As much as they wanted to take him down, they had to be wary of his current combat power. True to his intent, after he spoke, no one dared to confront him head-on.
As for Xue Wuying and He Luo, they were counting their lucky stars. Thankfully, they hadn’t clashed with Long Chen too much inside the tower. Otherwise, they wouldn’t even be standing here now. Deep down, they didn’t dare make a move against him.
However, the elders of the Xueying Sect and the Ancient Maple Hall exchanged a look. They said nothing, but they both understood the other’s intent.
Long Chen saw it all. How could he fail to understand their intentions? They were just trying to stall for time, waiting for his Dragon Blood Boiling secret technique to wear off. At that point, they believed they could regain control of the situation.
It had to be said, the elders of these sects were cunning old foxes. Unfortunately for them, they had run into Long Chen, who was even more perceptive.
As if Long Chen would ever give them such an opportunity.
Long Chen’s piercing gaze swept over the elders of the Xueying Sect and the Ancient Maple Hall. He asked coldly, "Have you figured out how you’re going to deal with me?"
