Dragon Blooded War God

“How dare you lecture me?”

Situ Yu glared and was about to attack, but Suxue blocked him and said, “He’s right. How could you involve my sister’s life in a bet? But, Situ Yu, you should research this when you get back too. We can’t place all hope on this stranger. Yan’er’s fate is in your hands.”

Situ Yu swallowed his anger, glared venomously at Long Chen, and said, “Alright. Leave the pill-making to me. They will be ready in ten days. Long Chen, we shall see who can help Princess Yan’er recover then! I’m leaving!”

Then, without even bidding them farewell, he walked off. This proved that Situ Yu was a high-ranking member of the Demon clan. Other than Suxue and Suyan, he was likely the highest-ranked person in the younger generation. After he left, Suxue looked at Long Chen hesitantly. “Long Chen, my sister’s life … No matter what, it is in your hands. If anything happens to my sister, I will never forgive you.”

“Big Sister, don’t worry. You will see that Big Brother is both amazing and a good person,” Suyan said confidently.

The fact that Long Chen had reprimanded Situ Yu for the bet made Suxue see him in a positive light. She took one more glance at him, feeling like he was no longer so repulsive. Then she left, feeling assured.

“If you only have big breasts and no brains, you won’t amount to anything,” said Long Chen not long after she walked away.

Suxue was so furious that she wanted to hit him, but she held herself back after some thought.

Once my sister recovers, I’m going to beat you up! No one in the Demon clan dares offend me, Suxue! Hmph!

“Big Brother, you’re amazing! No one has ever been able to make my sister that mad. She’s really powerful and men are all afraid of her. Even Brother Situ Yu wouldn’t dare say the wrong things in front of her.”

Long Chen smiled in exasperation. After he came here, he initially did not want to make any enemies, but Situ Yu had literally come to his doorstep and challenged him. That was why Long Chen could not be blamed. The other guy was insistent and rude, while Long Chen would not let anyone bully him. He had only refuted one or two sentences, but since they were haughty people, enemies were made.

Of course, Long Chen was only here to cultivate and help Suyan during her critical moments. He had no time to go fight Situ Yu. There were no grudges between them anyway. Any misunderstandings would just fade with time. Long Chen did not want to kill anyone, nor could he defeat an Eighth Earthly Martial Stage cultivator at the moment. That was why he did not feel any pressure.

“Yan’er, go play on your own. I will come out of my cultivation in ten days." Since they were finally gone, Long Chen wanted to continue cultivating. He had just started watching the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage’s punching routine when they had interrupted him. Long Chen had barely gotten a taste of it, so he was anxious to resume cultivating.

“Alright …” Suyan pouted unwillingly.

“Silly girl. If I don’t cultivate, anyone will be able to bully me,” said Long Chen with a smile.

“But I can protect you! I’ll beat up whoever touches you!” Suyan said fiercely, waving her small fist.

She was such a cute girl. She should’ve been living the life of an angel, deserving nothing but good things.

Long Chen smiled. After he sent Suyan back, he immersed himself in the cultivation of the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage. With the teachings of the Martial God Tombstone, Long Chen’s strength improved quickly as his foundation was already strong. He felt like he was very near to the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage.

While he was working hard on his cultivation, Suyan’s problem spread to everyone in Heavenly Wood City. Now everyone knew that Suyan had been hit with a spell from an unknown character and that she would age in ten days. She still had hope to live because two people were working hard for her. One was the alchemist Situ Yu, whom everyone knew. Situ Yu only ranked below Suxue among people of the younger generation, plus he was an alchemist. That was why he was taken very seriously in the Demon clan and was one of the role models for the youths. He was very famous in Heavenly Wood City.

Everyone had some confidence in him, seeing as he had performed miracles before. He had completely mastered the art of alchemy and was famous for it. Not a single person disliked the little princess in Heavenly Wood City, so during these ten days, all her relatives who had heard of her problem came to visit her, making her scramble to greet them. However, due to Suyan’s request, no one approached Long Chen’s area.

In the end, under Bai Lan’s request, no one visited Suyan anymore. He did not want his daughter to be disturbed. During this time, Bai Lan had come once, and after he heard that Long Chen was cultivating, he gave an expression as if he had expected it. After comforting his daughter, he left quickly.

Everyone was extremely anxious, but the father, who was the person who loved his daughter most, was completely relaxed. Everyone was puzzled by this. Was Bai Lan that confident in Situ Yu?

While Long Chen was cultivating, Situ Yu was busy refining pills. Sounds of explosions often came from his quarters, so everyone could tell that he was very busy.

News of Long Chen also quietly spread across the city. Many people learned that there was an outsider in the city named Long Chen who was also an alchemist, and he was also refining pills for Suyan. This person was only at the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage, and the only special thing about him was that he was brought back by Suyan. Princess Suyan seemed to be very close with this person, which broke the hearts of many people who had fantasized about her before.

Just like that, ten days passed. During this time, Suxue had come countless times to check on Long Chen. She found him immersed in cultivation every single time, yet Situ Yu was working hard to refine pills. The difference between them was apparent with just a glance.

Long Chen once again turned into a swindler in Suxue’s eyes. In the end, she did not even bother to check on him, because she had long lost hope in him. During this time, she had met Bai Lan several times, and although she was so anxious about Suyan that she could almost puke out blood, her father showed no signs of anxiety. Every day, he continued to play chess and drink with the Thunder clan leader.

On the last night, Suxue kept Suyan company.

“Yan’er, aren’t you afraid of death?”

“I am,” said Suyan.

“Then why aren’t you crying? Tomorrow is the tenth day.”

“Big Brother will save me tomorrow,” Suyan said with wide eyes.

Suxue was speechless.

On the next day, at dawn, many people gathered in Suyan’s elegant courtyard. These were the top leaders of the Demon clan. As for the Thunder clan, only Lei Ji accompanied Bai Lan. The top leaders of the Demon clan were at least the Eighth Earthly Martial Stage. A total of ten people were squeezed into the yard, and every single one of them could easily kill Long Chen.

Behind Bai Lan were the eight Sect Elders of the Demon clan. They were all masters at the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage, and some already had a foot in the Heavenly Martial Realm and were just a step away from a breakthrough. However, there was a huge valley to cross in order to reach the Heavenly Martial Realm. Although they were just a step away, it did not mean that they would reach it. It was even possible that they would stagnate for the rest of their lives. When they truly reached the Heavenly Martial Realm, it would be the equivalent of taking one step and flying into the sky.

Many people failed to reach the Heavenly Martial Realm when they were young. Once they reached two hundred years of age, which was when their tendons, muscles, and bones started to age, reaching the Heavenly Martial realm would be difficult.

All the top leaders of the Demon clan were gathered in this small space. They were all famous people in the outside world, but they were gathered here because they were concerned about Princess Suyan. Bai Lan was famous for loving his daughters. Whether she lived or died would be decided today, so it was natural that they were present.

If anything happened to Suyan, and Bai Lan went mad, they did not know how many casualties there would be.

They all stood in the yard in an orderly fashion, looking at Bai Lan in front. Bai Lan’s expression should have been dark, but to their surprise, he was acting like nothing was out of the norm. As usual, he was chatting away happily with the Thunder clan leader, Lei Ji.

Bai Lan’s demeanor shocked everyone. Had his personality changed? Or did it mean Suyan was actually fine? Was her condition actually not serious at all?

The group was puzzled, but since Bai Lan was so close, they did not dare discuss it among themselves. Bai Lan was the person who had received the Divine Demon Lord’s inheritance, and his cultivation had reached a terrifying level. Even the Thunder clan leader was no match for him at all.

Everyone watched as Suyan and Suxue sat together in a small pavilion. Suxue was clutching Suyan’s hand tightly, letting her rest her tiny head on her chest. The beautiful sisters huddled together and looked in harmony with the beautiful scenery.

“Xue’er really has grown up. Look at her hugging Yan’er. She looks like a mother,” joked Lei Ji when he looked at them.

“Damn you, my daughter is only in her twenties. In the world of cultivation and the Three Martial Realms, she’s considered very young,” chuckled Bai Lan without worry in his eyes.

However, Suxue was so anxious that tears were welling up in her eyes.

“Big Sister, are you crying?” Suyan asked sadly as she reached out to touch Suxue’s face with her fair hand.
