Chapter 499 - Non-relativesBefore, Long Chen was still worried that the Giant Strength Demon General would take his life if he didn"t destroy the corpse, but now, he didn"t need to worry. Otherwise, she would not have allowed Long Chen to kill him as he wished, and he would not keep the news that Long Chen had defeated Qin Huanyu to the outside world.
At this moment, the Giant Strength Demon General"s eyes were completely red. When he saw Zhao Wuji"s miserable state, he shouted, "Jiang City, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you actually killed me, Wu Ji.
As he said that, his Ninth Level of the Heavenly Completion Stage aura exploded and that mountainous wave of true energy swept towards Long Chen, directly pus.h.i.+ng him back several steps. Then, with an enraged roar, the Giant Strength Demon General stomped heavily on the ground, intending to attack Long Chen!
Under his attacks, Long Chen was definitely killed in one move!
"Stop!" Right at this moment, the King of Qing Li made his move, pulling the Great Strength Demon General back. With a cold expression, she said, "Great Strength, calm down. I am the one who will decide this The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep, not you!"The Pure Li King was an expert of the Earth Martial Stage, and his strength was much higher than that of the Great Strength Demon General. With the Duke of Qing Li"s tugging at him, the Great Strength Demon General simply could not move at all, and the King"s cold voice also frightened him. The Great Strength Demon General finally regained some clarity. Just now, he was immersed in the anger of Zhao Wuji"s death, and had acted on impulse.
"Jiang City, tell me, what exactly happened?!" At this time, the Qing Li King said while looking at Long Chen with cold eyes.
"It"s very simple, I believe you already know, this Zhao Wuji, when he reached Fifth stage of the Heavenly Completion Stage, he wanted to find me to fight, to wash away his shame. During the day, I didn"t agree to it, but at night, he used a trick to lure me out, and I defeated him, but I spared his life. It"s a pity that he wasn"t convinced, and took out his Nine Heavens Thunder Sigil, wanting my life.
The Giant Strength Demon General and the Duke of Qing Li indeed knew that Zhao Wuji had been looking for trouble with Long Chen for the past few days. Because the Duke of Qing Li had ordered it, otherwise, Long Chen"s strength would be exposed, so the Giant Strength Demon General didn"t have the time to tell Zhao Wuji about Long Chen.What Long Chen said was about the same as what happened here. It was easy to tell that he was telling the truth, and the Giant Strength Demon General understood Zhao Wuji"s brave and ruthless personality better, so he knew that what Long Chen said was true. However, Zhao Wuji was his nephew, how could he let Zhao Wuji die just like that?
"Jiang City, in the end, you"re still the one who killed Zhao Wuji. With your status as an ordinary disciple, you actually killed the Scarlet Ghost King"s direct disciple, and Zhao Wuji is still my nephew. The Giant Demon General roared with a savage expression.
If it were any other ordinary disciple, the Giant Strength Demon General would definitely be able to kill them easily and take revenge for Zhao Wuji. After all, the Ancient Devil Region did not allow them to fight privately, but that was only in the case of ordinary disciples, as one of the twenty-eight Demon Generals, the Giant Strength Demon General still had the right to kill the disciples.
So at this time, the Giant Strength Demon General didn"t think too much about it. After Long Chen finished explaining what had happened, he took Long Chen"s life without a second word!
"Stop right there!" Her cold gaze completely stunned the Giant Demon General. He looked at the Duke of Qing Li in confusion and said, "Your majesty King Qing Li, he is only an ordinary disciple, but he killed my nephew. Can"t I avenge my nephew?"
If it was before, the Qing Li King would definitely not have asked, but why would she stop him today? He was one of the four great demon generals of the The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep. With his position, could he not compare to a single Long Chen?
The strange actions of the Qing Li King were simply going to drive the Giant Strength Demon General insane.
"Stop messing around, it"s the fault of the people from Scarlet Ghost King"s Palace. Jiang City is just a pa.s.sive defense, we are from The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep, Giant Strength, you can"t be in the wrong team." The Duke of Qing Li said coldly.
The Giant Strength Demon General paused. He knew that from this perspective, the Duke of Qing Li basically had nothing to discuss. He was not an idiot, and at this moment, he was also thinking about the reason. The reason was actually not hard to figure out, why did the Qing Li King use all sorts of methods to protect Long Chen, wasn"t it all because of Long Chen"s potential? Furthermore, the Giant Strength Demon General also knew a few other things that even Long Chen did not know about.
"I will leave the matters with Zhao Wuji to you. Jiang City, follow me back to The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep. " The Qing Li King did not give the Giant Demon General any leeway to negotiate and directly turned to leave. Long Chen remained calm in his heart and hurriedly followed behind the Qing Li King.He did not look at the Giant Strength Demon General, but Long Chen could still feel the enemy"s hateful gaze. In this world, the possibility of surviving was something that one could rely on their own strength to fight for. was far from being a match for him, so he could only follow the Duke Qing Li without making a sound for the rest of his life.
As for the future, with the protection of the Seep King, Long Chen did not need to worry about the Giant Strength Demon General for the time being, unless the Giant Strength Demon General was crazy and did not want to stay in the Ancient Devil Region.
Only the people from the The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep were able to see the commotion happening in the desolate mountain, so the other king palaces were not very clear about it. Under the suppression of the Qing Mei King, the news was temporarily suppressed, so for the time being, no one knew what had happened here. And at this time, Long Chen was brought back to the The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep. The residence of the Qing Li King was the core area of the The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep. Long Chen had never been there before.
In the middle of the palace, there were only Long Chen and the Duke Qing Li. Currently, the Duke Qing Li was sitting on the luxurious chair, looking down at Long Chen from above."Jiang City, I think you"re not an idiot. You should be able to tell that I can protect you now." After a while, the king spoke faintly.
"Thank you for your kindness, King Qing Yan. Jiang City understands. If it wasn"t for you today, the Great Strength Demon General would have definitely killed me." Long Chen was clear about this point, the reason he dared to kill Zhao Wuji was because he had already guessed the inklings from Duke Qing Li"s actions. It seemed to be extremely risky, but Long Chen was extremely confident. Furthermore, Zhao Wuji had wanted to take Long Chen"s life multiple times, so how could Long Chen let him live?
"It"s good that you understand. I believe you also know that you and I are not related in any way, and you are not my direct disciple. I do have a reason for helping you." The Duke of Qing Li continued.
"I don"t know, what can I do for you?" Long Chen more or less knew the answer, so he only confirmed it for a bit.
My The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep"s results are the last, and my disciple"s strength is also very different from the other King Palaces. But five years later, I believe that you should know about the current situation today, as The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep doesn"t have any young disciples from the Eighth level of the Heavenly Completion Stage, but the other six King Palaces do. In other words, my The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep has basically been confirmed as the last in the one month"s annual examination. Ever since I took control of the The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep, it did not improve at all, and the disciples" strength is getting weaker and weaker with each pa.s.sing generation. Maybe after I retreat, the The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep will no longer exist. "
As he spoke up to this point, the Duke of Qing Li"s heart felt rather heavy.
Long Chen listened to every word she said.
"Are they both last place? This is indeed quite tragic, but Liu Yiyi has pretty much reached the Eighth level of the Heavenly Completion Stage, and looking at her situation, it seems that it was only one to two months ago. Long Chen pondered. If it was an ordinary person, they would have been duped by Duke Qing Li in an instant. However, Long Chen knew very well about Liu Yiyi"s strength, and thus, he retained a bit of doubt in his heart.Of course, the miserable state The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep was in actually had nothing to do with Long Chen. Long Chen knew what the Duke Qing Li meant.
"What you mean is, you want me to represent the The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep in the annual examination one month from now?" Long Chen raised his head and asked.
Actually, he was secretly delighted in his heart, as far as he was concerned, this was exactly what he wanted. He still didn"t know how he could partic.i.p.ate in the annual examination to obtain the dianyin bead, and the Pure Li King had given him such an opportunity."You are very smart, I think so. From today onwards, I will focus on cultivating you, and in a month"s time, you will be able to make huge improvements in your strength. Do you have the confidence to defeat Eighth level of the Heavenly Completion Stage in one month"s time, and get into the top three, or even the champion?" The Qing Li King stared at Long Chen and said with a stern expression.
Long Chen knew that since the Duke of Qing Li had saved him this time, he didn"t have the right to refuse at all. Otherwise, the Giant Strength Demon General would tear him apart.
"If you are willing to nurture me, and give me what I want, I can guarantee that I won"t let The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep be the last place. As for the top three, it isn"t too difficult." Long Chen said decisively, his eyes full of determination.
Although the things that happened today looked as if he was threatened by the Duke of Qing Li, in fact, Long Chen"s heart was already overflowing with joy. His original goal was to become as strong as possible before the annual examination and then obtain the dianyin bead, but the King of Qing Li had already sent all the benefits over to him.
Long Chen"s affirmative answer, made the Duke of Qing Li extremely satisfied. She smiled and said, "You"re full of confidence. Looks like you have a plan, don"t you? Just tell me what you want. "
Long Chen pondered for a while, then said: "I want a million Tongtian Pill, and also that crystal that was enveloped in demonic light for us that time."A million Tongtian Pill was equivalent to all the wealth of an ordinary Ninth Level of the Heavenly Completion Stage pract.i.tioner. There was also a crystal, it was also the The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep"s treasure, there were only five of them in the entire The King"s Hall of Clearing Seep.
Long Chen"s condition caused the Seep King to frown slightly. She pondered for a moment and said: "With these things, he can guarantee that he can defeat Eighth level of the Heavenly Completion Stage in one month? What guarantee do you have? "
"I can guarantee that if it doesn"t work, I will raise my head to meet you." Long Chen said decisively.
