Chapter 5318 Little Stratagem


By the time Long Chen finished speaking, the w.a.n.g family"s experts had fled. No one dared respond to his taunts.


“Senior apprentice-brother Long Chen, are you planning to challenge the entire w.a.n.g family?” Qing Xi asked, staring at Long Chen in shock.


“How could I? I’m just bluffing. I can’t beat a nine-vein Human Emperor,” Long Chen chuckled.


“Then, why...?” Qing Xi still seemed confused.


“Hehe, you’re Wan-er’s junior apprentice-sister. How could I stand by while they bully you?” Long Chen grinned mischievously.


“But you already killed Cheng Ye, and even a three-vein Emperor. Isn’t that enough?” Qing Xi asked hurriedly.


“No, it’s far from enough. They dared to offend Wan-er’s junior apprentice-sister, so I have to make them pay. Otherwise, how could I face her?” Long Chen shook his head.


Qing Xi wanted to say more, but Long Chen signaled for her to follow him as they flew toward the Endless Desolation. After over two hours, Long Chen came to a halt, sensing the presence of devil creatures nearby.


With a wicked smile, Long Chen waved his hand, and flames burst out of him, enveloping both of them. After that, the flames retreated and condensed into a sphere. While Qing Xi waited here, Long Chen went out alone while holding the flame sphere. After traveling a bit further, he tossed the flame sphere into a rocky cave and returned to Qing Xi.


Using a short-range transportation formation, he brought Qing Xi to hide atop a nearby mountain.


Seeing Long Chen staring in one direction, Qing Xi couldn’t restrain her curiosity and asked, “Senior apprentice-brother Long Chen, what are you doing?”


Shh! Don’t speak,” Long Chen whispered, his gaze locked in the distance.


Suddenly, a deafening explosion echoed through the air. Mountains collapsed, and a wave of turbid qi shot into the sky. Long Chen slapped his thigh excitedly.


“The w.a.n.g family’s not bad! They’re pretty efficient!”


“That’s the w.a.n.g family’s people?” asked Qing Xi.


Chuckling, Long Chen said, “I gathered the soul chasing fragrance that they left on us, wrapped it in flame energy, and tossed it in that cave. Now they’ve stumbled into a fight with the devil creatures.”


“That doesn’t make sense. The w.a.n.g family has full control of this area. How could they not know that there were terrifying devil creatures in the vicinity?” Qing Xi asked.


“Those devil creatures aren’t there normally. I lured them over,” Long Chen chuckled sinisterly.


After Long Chen had been transported directly next to the altar of the devil creatures, he was immediately chased by them. Though he managed to escape, the creatures continued searching for him in the surrounding area.


To exploit this, Long Chen deliberately left traces of his aura to lure them in. As expected, the devil creatures believed he was still in the vicinity and were actively hunting for him.


Familiar with the surroundings, the w.a.n.g family’s people were unconcerned about the devil creatures, as they knew this area was far from the devil’s territory. After that, they found the rocky cave and blew it up, thinking they could force Long Chen and Qing Xi out of their hiding spot. However, the explosion attracted the attention of the devil creatures instead. Upon spotting the humans, the devil creatures launched a ferocious attack.


Explosions echoed in the distance as entire mountains crumbled under the a.s.sault. The powerful shockwaves rippled through the air, reaching even Long Chen and Qing Xi’s hiding spot.


Upon sensing the aura of a nine-vein Human Emperor, Long Chen grinned.


“Hehe, the w.a.n.g family’s patriarch really is reliable! He actually came in person.”


Long Chen quickly took out a formation disc, which sent him and Qing Xi through consecutive spatial teleportations. Suddenly, Qing Xi saw an ancient city ahead, and Long Chen headed straight for its gates.


“Stop right there! What are you here for?” the city guards shouted, raising their weapons toward the two of them.


BOOM!


Long Chen didn’t bother answering. With a single palm strike, one of the watchtowers exploded, and the guards were sent flying, coughing up blood.


“Go to the left. The highest palace is the w.a.n.g family’s treasury. Go ahead and take a look to see if there’s anything you like. Don’t be shy,” Long Chen said with a grin.


“Eh?” Qing Xi was stunned. Only now did she realize that they had entered the w.a.n.g family’s city, and Long Chen had brought her here to rob them. She had never done such a thing in her life.


“What are you waiting for? Hurry up! We don’t have much time. Once the patriarch gets back, we’re done for!” urged Long Chen.


Seeing Qing Xi reacting so slowly, Long Chen grabbed her arm and threw her. Qing Xi screamed as she flew through the air.


To buy her more time, Long Chen unleashed a series of explosive attacks, destroying buildings and causing chaos throughout the city.


“Courting death!”


The experts inside the city were all alarmed and rushed out. Seeing that Long Chen was only a Sage King, a two-vein Human Emperor directly attacked him. But before this Human Emperor could do much, Long Chen already grabbed him by the neck.


“Out of my way!”


With a flick of his wrist, Long Chen hurled the Human Emperor. The latter was like a shooting star smas.h.i.+ng through countless buildings.


Summoning his divine ring, Long Chen shot after the path that this Human Emperor kindly opened for him. All of a sudden, a three-vein Human Emperor appeared next to Long Chen and swung his sword at him. But Long Chen evaded the attack with a swift turn and delivered a slap to the Emperor’s face. With a shattered face, the Emperor flew through the air, unconscious before he even hit the ground.


After that, several two-vein Emperors attacked Long Chen in a row, only to be sent flying with consecutive slaps.


BOOM!


Long Chen’s punch crushed a barrier, revealing an enormous medicinal field filled with hundreds of precious medicinal ingredients.


Long Chen was overjoyed to see them. From Elder Lu’s memories, Long Chen knew that the w.a.n.g family had a medicinal field made specially to raise these mutated medicinal ingredients. But then, Elder Lu didn’t have a permit to enter it, so he didn’t know the exact situation.


Seeing the medicinal field, Long Chen was so excited that he almost started dancing.


“Senior!” Long Chen called out.


If Long Chen broke the formations guarding the medicinal field, he would damage the medicinal ingredients. Hence, he directly summoned the Earth Cauldron.


The Earth Cauldron was specialized in this kind of work. Its runes quivered, and with a wave of divine light, the formations guarding the field vanished. After that, Long Chen waved his hand, and all the medicinal ingredients flew into the primal chaos s.p.a.ce.


“Alright, we’re done! Let’s go!” Long Chen shouted excitedly.


Long Chen hurried back to Qing Xi, who looked both nervous and somewhat excited. Clearly, this was her first time robbing anyone. Just as Long Chen was about to speak, his expression changed. He took out a formation disc, and the two of them vanished.


As they disappeared, a group of people arrived, led by the nine-vein Human Emperor. Seeing the destruction, the Emperor roared in fury.


“Who the f.u.c.k did this?!”
