Dragon-Blooded War God

Chapter 680: Promise



“Since you don’t want to tell me where Huangfu Qi is, I won’t force you. But you’d better be careful. The Divine Martial Empire isn’t that big. How long can you hide someone?” Then Feng Xuan followed Zhao Danchen away.

The ordeal had finally come to an end.

Although Long Chen did not know the specifics of this distraction tactic, he had a rough idea.

Initially, he thought he was going to fight Zhao Danchen to the death, but Zhao Danchen had left. Long Chen sighed in relief. He was not in his peak state yet, as he had not finished cultivating the Desolate Divine Seal. Plus, Xiaolang, who was a huge help, had not woken from his slumber yet.

Zhao Danchen thought he could let Long Chen and Feng Xuan fight first. However, he did not know what Long Chen was planning. Once he successfully cultivated the Desolate Divine Seal and Xiaolang woke up, he was going to march straight to Martial Overlord City to fight Zhao Danchen to the death!

As for Feng Xuan, he would only kill her when they fought over the Ancient Token.

Those two had to die!

After Zhao Danchen and Feng Xuan were gone, everyone was still in disbelief. Just like last time, they had only survived because of Long Chen!

During both ordeals, Long Chen had led them to victory due to his absolute power!

Everyone surrounded him and looked at him like he was an alien. He gave a resigned smile and said, “What’s up with everyone? Have I become more handsome? Are you guys swooning?”

“Damn you!”

“That’s something you say to girls. How could you say that to men like us?”

Everyone started to laugh and scold him.

The threat had been neutralized.

Everyone felt like they were reborn.

“Let’s go. We survived a huge ordeal and a powerful cultivator like Seventh Brother has returned. This is a joyous occasion. We must drink to celebrate Long Chen’s return!”

“Yes!”

Joy spread throughout the whole clan.

Very soon, the Battle clan organized a grand bonfire party. Long Chen let Huangfu Fengchen and the others out and told Long Yue and the others about his recent affairs. They were speechless when they learned how much he had been through in just a short time. He was something like an alien to them by now.

The bonfire party was bustling, and the whole Battle clan celebrated. There were even many performances taking place such as Battle clan dance and other routines by tamed demonic beasts. They were all exciting displays, and Long Chen was enamored by them.

This was the grandest celebration ever held by the Battle clan.

Having saved the Battle clan twice now, he was naturally received warmly, so much so that he was uncomfortable.

However, this would also be his last party before he left the Divine Martial Empire. After this, it did not matter if he received the Ancient Token—he was about to embark on his journey to leave the Divine Martial Empire. The brotherhood he shared with this bunch, as well as the bond he shared with Huangfu Qi and the rest, were his greatest treasures from this trip.

He could only leave with peace of mind if he eliminated Zhao Danchen and Feng Xuan so that his friends could live in peace.

This was Huangfu Qi’s first time coming to a place with so many people, and everyone was willing to play with the adorable little girl. Long Chen also introduced Huangfu Fengchen to the Dragon clan members. Although Huangfu Fengchen had lost his power, everyone respected him. Long Chen had placed Huangfu Qi under Long Yue’s care.

In the end, Long Shan, who had a rare opportunity to relax, directly took Huangfu Qi in as his disciple. As a result, Huangfu Qi even outranked Long Yue and the rest.

After Huangfu Fengchen’s family settled in, Long Chen felt assured. After he dealt with Feng Xuan and Zhao Danchen, he would send people to help Huangfu Fengchen regroup the Huangfu clan and let Huangfu Qi become the clan leader. Of course, she had to quickly reach the Earthly Martial Realm first.

Long Chen enjoyed this, watching them enjoy themselves on this bustling night.

If Xiao Xi were here, she would be so happy to see such a busy party, thought Long Chen numbly after some wine.

“Seventh Brother,” Long Yue suddenly said, standing in front of him.

Long Chen looked up, then Long Yue stuffed a Universe Pouch in his hand.

“What is this?” he asked.

“The Yellow Emperor Seal,” she answered.

“You’re giving it to me?” he asked, shocked.

“Who else could I give it to? If it’s with us, it’ll be snatched away. You’ll fight Zhao Danchen one day, and we all believe in you. If you succeed, the Five Emperor Seal will be yours. If you don’t, do your best not to let Zhao Danchen get it. Alright?”

Long Chen nodded and said, “I guarantee Zhao Danchen will never get the Five Emperor Seal. Don’t worry about that.”

Long Chen rarely promised something so confidently, so Long Yue was assured. She gave a small smile and said, “It’s such a busy night. What are you thinking about, hiding here alone?”

“Nothing,” he said with an awkward grin.

“Then let’s talk business.” Long Yue sat down next to him and looked at him solemnly. She asked, “Seventh Brother, you know my grandfather was not initially in good physical condition. After sustaining severe injuries three times, he can’t fight anymore. The Martial Alliance’s Zhao Danchen and Feng Xuan are both serious threats to us—they can destroy the whole clan at any time. Although we survived today, we can’t run forever …”

“Eldest Sister, what do you want to ask?” Long Chen asked directly.

It was clear she wanted to ask him for something.

Long Yue nodded and said, “You’re the only one who can solve our problem now. I wanted to ask you this question. Are you confident you can defeat Zhao Danchen and Feng Xuan? Tell me the truth. I need a clear answer so I can plan the next step.”

Long Chen thought for a while and said honestly, “I am at the Third Earthly Martial Stage now. Zhao Danchen has the Martial Overlord Ring and the Martial Overlord Seal. However, I am sure that even with everything he has at his disposal, I can fight him to the death and even win. Of course, there is a caveat. I am now cultivating an advanced King-tier combat technique. I will be confident if I can complete it.”

Long Chen was being honest.

Zhao Danchen had the Martial Overlord Ring, the Martial Overlord Seal, and more. But Long Chen had the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon’s many techniques, Rewind, and the Golden Crow Flame! If he was in danger, he could use Blood Sacrifice!

If he did, both Zhao Danchen and Feng Xuan would be no match for him!

Of course, he would not use it until the last moment. This was a critical period as he wanted to enter the Ancient Graveyard; a decrease in cultivation level would make him lose his edge. Also, now that he had hit the Earthly Martial Realm, he did not know how much his strength would decrease.

Would he lose his comprehension of the martial arts? Or would he only lose essence without losing the growth of his Martial Soul?

These were all unknown, so he did not want to take this risk now.

“Do you mean that after some time, you’ll be strong enough to kill Zhao Danchen?” Long Yue was overjoyed. This was what she wanted. She knew that Long Chen had always been a reliable person.

“Zhao Danchen has the Ancient Demon Corpse, but it is merely a fighting machine that relies on physical strength. As long as I am stronger than it, it will not be difficult to deal with. Even if Zhao Danchen and the Ancient Demon Corpse attacked me at the same time, I wouldn’t be afraid. Don’t worry about Zhao Danchen,” said Long Chen.

He was not exaggerating, and he spoke honestly and calmly.

Long Yue still did not believe him. She subconsciously thought that Zhao Danchen was too strong. Was Long Chen only making this promise to make her feel more assured? But he was not the kind to brag.

To be honest, Long Yue was very stressed.

“I’ll leave Zhao Danchen to you, then. But what about Feng Xuan?” Long Yue gritted her teeth and decided to believe him. If he truly was strong enough, it would be simpler for her to plan.

“Feng Xuan?” Long Chen furrowed his brows and recalled her battle outside Martial Overlord City.

Long Chen looked up at her as he said, “She’s at the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage and she’s from the Heavenly Wind Empire. She’s no simple opponent. But, Eldest Sister, do you remember Xiaolang?”

“Your demonic beast? Where is it?” asked Long Yue.

“Xiaolang is currently on the brink of Category Three King-tier, working hard to break through to Category Four. If he succeeds, we can work together to fight Feng Xuan, and defeating her will be possible,” said Long Chen.

“Category Four King-tier?” Long Yue drew in a sharp breath.

She did not know that the demonic beast, who had just reached the King-tier when she first saw it, was as terrifying as Long Chen!

To Long Yue and the others, Long Chen and his demonic beast were the prodigy of prodigies. No one had heard of a beast advancing levels, but the Sun Devouring Wolf had done it.

To them, Long Chen was shrouded in thick mystery. No one could figure him out.

“If I work together with Xiaolang, maybe we don’t need to be afraid of Feng Xuan anymore,” said Long Chen.

That was his assumption.

There was no one else who could deal with those two difficult opponents. Everything was up to him. Saying this would make Long Yue rest easier.

Long Yue gritted her teeth hesitantly. However, as she looked at his determined gaze, she nodded and said, “Seventh Brother, I believe you. If that really is the case, then our enemies are no longer scary, because you can block off the strongest ones. With Zhao Danchen out of the way, we can deal with the rest of the Martial Alliance. Feng Xuan doesn’t even have a subordinate. As long as you kill Zhao Danchen and keep Feng Xuan busy, we can take over the whole Divine Martial Empire!”
