Dragon Blooded War God

It was bright under the starlight.

A pair of bloodshot eyes was watching from one of the dark corners of the ancient tree. He was staring at the brightest star in the sky, but he knew that it was actually Long Chen. In fear of getting found out, he had come here in the middle of the night, but he found that Long Chen was already done cultivating.

The man was none other than Chen Yang.

He carefully took out the Cloud Piercer and the Troop Destroying Arrow from his Universe Pouch. The Cloud Piercer was capable of generating a lot of force if he could pull the string back completely, and the Troop Destroying Arrow was a unique Divine Weapon that had the unique feature of being undetectable and silent. It could slow down rapidly after getting shot out of a bow, making it extremely suitable for assassinations. A regular cultivator would have a hard time detecting an attack from the Troop Destroying Arrow. This was why Situ Yao had given Chen Yang the two Divine Weapons to kill Long Chen.

Even someone at the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage would find it hard to avoid the Troop Destroying Arrow.

Chen Yang was nervous when he notched the arrow and closed one of his eyes. He aimed at the starlight in the sky and readied himself to attack.

He was currently one Li away from Long Chen, so it was hard to aim. Thankfully, Long Chen was cultivating the Seven Star Manual, making him an easy target to lock onto.

Chen Yang was about to release the arrow when Long Chen completed his cultivation and the light disappeared.

“He’s done?” Chen Yang wasn’t hasty. He had missed his chance today, but he was certain that Long Chen would come here to cultivate again. However, Chen Yang didn’t know that Suxue was just beside Long Chen.

Two hundred meters away from Chen Yang was an old man cloaked completely in black. He stood on a leaf, watching patiently. It was none other than Situ Yao. He was waiting for Chen Yang to act before swooping in to take the inheritance of the Seven Star Lord. But because of how careful Long Chen and Suxue were when they scaled up, even Situ Yao hadn’t noticed Suxue. He could only see Long Chen’s light from this distance.

The starlight was extinguished, meaning that Long Chen’s cultivation was successful.

What is Chen Yang doing? Situ Yao was speechless. He had been following Chen Yang for quite some time.

But Situ Yao was not anxious. He knew that cultivating the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance was no easy task and was certain that Long Chen would have to come up here many more times. Knowing that there would be other chances, he had no reason to be impatient.

After what he had just seen, Situ Yao was even more certain that Long Chen had obtained the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance.

Situ Yao was very excited about taking it. He would wait for Chen Yang to shoot Long Chen, then he would run towards Long Chen at full speed. After collecting the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance, he would then chase after Chen Yang and kill him! He had left traces of his aura on the Cloud Piercer and the Troop Destroying Arrow so he could find him no matter where he went.

With Chen Yang dead, Situ Yao could then cultivate the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance without any worry. If he failed, he could just walk away too. Bai Lan had to protect the entire Demon clan, while Situ Yao only needed to bring his grandson to escape.

It was risky, but it was worth it to take the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance for himself.

Just then, Long Chen’s position lit up again. The light made Situ Yao even more excited.

“That’s … That’s the legendary Three Thousand Star Clusters!” Situ Yao howled quietly as he swallowed a large wad of saliva.

The light coming from the Three Thousand Star Cluster was very mellow. It wasn’t bright nor sharp, so Situ Yao recognized it immediately. Chen Yang, on the other hand, didn't, but he could barely make out Long Chen’s location thanks to the light. More importantly, he saw another person beside him. He wasn’t sure who it was, however.

“I don’t care who you are, but I can blame you for Long Chen’s death!” Chen Yang raised the Cloud Piercer and aimed for Long Chen’s heart!

***

Long Chen couldn’t refuse, so he took out the Three Thousand Star Clusters for her. He couldn’t use it yet, so he only waved it around. He had a feeling that he had to cultivate the Seven Star Body before he could utilize it.

Three thousand stars floated out of Long Chen’s body and arranged themselves in his hands, taking the shape of a beautiful, blue spear. Suxue placed her hands on her mouth in awe and screamed a little.

She loved beautiful things, even if it was a Divine Weapon. Suxue had fallen in love with how pretty the Three Thousand Star Clusters was and tried touching it in a daze.

Long Chen felt an unwilling sensation coming from the Divine Weapon. It appeared that the Three Thousand Star Clusters refused to let Suxue touch it.

A gentle wave of energy gently pushed her fingers away.

Suxue frowned, but she wasn’t mad. “This is the most beautiful Divine Weapon that I’ve ever seen. It’s a shame that it didn’t allow me to touch it. Thankfully, it only gently pushed my fingers away.”

“That’s because it was taking my position into consideration, or it would’ve cut your fingers off,” Long Chen said in an attempt to scare her

“Alright, I need to start cultivating the Seven Star Body. I will have to gather celestial Qi. It’s a fearsome thing, so I need you to step back a bit.”

Long Chen was quite wary of celestial Qi, but he had no choice but to endure it for the sake of the Seven Star Body.

“Let me look at it for just a little longer, please. Don’t put it away yet!” Suxue pleaded. Long Chen frowned, but he decided to comply by letting her look at the Three Thousand Star Clusters for a bit longer.

Suxue was admiring the Divine Weapon and completely forgot about what Long Chen had said about celestial Qi.

Just then, Long Chen was hit with an overwhelming sense of danger!

“Long Chen! There’s an arrow behind you!” Little Cat sensed it too and alerted him out of panic.

Long Chen understood how dangerous the arrow was if even Little Cat had panicked. Thanks to Little Cat’s warning, Long Chen knew that the arrow was behind him, so he didn’t need to waste any time trying to find where the threat was coming from. He had a chance of surviving once more!

He suddenly turned around and blocked his heart with the Three Thousand Star Clusters. Suxue was just behind him, so he couldn’t dodge. Although she was strong, she wasn’t as alert as Little Cat. If he had dodged it, the silent arrow would’ve hit her!

Long Chen was a man with principles. The arrow was aimed at him, not Suxue, so he couldn’t let it harm her. If he did, it would be difficult to explain himself to Bai Lan. After all, it was Long Chen who had requested for her to accompany him.

Long Chen understood that greedy people were everywhere in this world. Even though he hadn’t offended a lot of people, many of them were still hunting him because he had obtained the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance. He was destined to fight even more people from now on!

Just like how someone was trying to assassinate him tonight!

Long Chen felt the hairs on his body standing up!

He vaguely saw a black metal rod flying in the night sky and knew that it was the arrow! The arrow’s speed was far beyond what he had expected, and the only thing he could do was use the Three Thousand Star Clusters to block it.

He felt suffocated.

This was the fastest attack that he had ever seen.

Thankfully, the arrow landed on the Three Thousand Star Clusters!

He thought he would be blown backwards by the impact, but that feeling never came. He looked down and saw the arrow slowly disintegrating just half a meter away from the Three Thousand Star Clusters.

Long Chen was stunned before he realized that the Three Thousand Star Clusters had saved him. If not, he would’ve been pierced by that arrow.

He felt cold sweat pouring out from his body.

At the same time, he looked back and saw that Suxue had noticed what was going on. Her face was pale, but she sighed in relief when she saw that Long Chen was unharmed after blocking the arrow with Three Thousand Star Clusters. Then anger overtook her heart.

She never thought someone would try to assassinate Long Chen under her protection and inside the territory of the Demon clan! The assassins were too daring. If it wasn’t for Long Chen’s Three Thousand Star Clusters, he would’ve been dead!

Shu Xue’s killing intent leaked out.

She was about to run towards the direction the arrow was shot from, but Long Chen stopped her. He was using Sight and spotted someone running towards him at full speed! The person’s speed far exceeded his expectations. If Suxue left him now, that person would be on top of Long Chen in an instant.
