Dragon Blooded War God

“What just happened … Didn’t you die …” asked Suxue, wiping away her tears.

“That’s a secret. But why are you crying? You couldn’t bear to see me die? But yesterday you were trying to kill me!” Long Chen teased gently.

“I don’t want to talk to you anymore!” Suxue bit her lip and glared at him, but her mood was much better after he cracked a joke.

“Since we’ve won, this trip has come to an end. Let’s return to Heavenly Wood City, then,” said Bai Lan. When he saw that they were bickering, he chuckled too.

There was nothing to say between the three factions. The winner had been determined, and it was a solid fact that the Yellow Emperor Key’s slot would belong to the Demon clan. Of course, the Yellow Emperor Key could not be handed over to the Demon clan right now.

“Wait, wait. You can’t leave yet. There will be news arriving very soon …” Long Chen said cryptically when everyone was preparing to leave.

“What? What are you talking about?” asked Bai Lan and Lei Ji, who looked at each other with confusion.

They were just five hundred meters away, so they would arrive very soon. Long Chen could see people quickly approaching the Eternal Battlefield when he used the Soul Swallowing Gaze.

A few days ago, Little Cat had heard the people from the Demon race talking about giving away the Black Emperor Key at the Water District’s Tianyi Water City.

He guessed that the news would arrive soon, seeing as they had a fast communication method that was much faster than traveling on foot.

Long Chen acted very mysteriously and did not reply to them, so they were all left confused. Then one of the approaching men ran over. Bai Lan and the others looked over and saw that it was a Demon clansman. This person was at the Seventh Earthly Martial Stage and was in charge of intel.

He rushed over very quickly, but seeing as there were many people present, he quickly whispered something in Bai Lan’s ear. Long Chen faintly heard the words “Black Emperor Key” and “Tianyi Water City.” It was just as he had guessed.

After Bai Lan heard him, his face changed. Lei Ji, who was next to him, heard it too.

Once the Demon clan’s messenger arrived, the Divine Wind Faction and the Five Elements Alliance’s messengers also arrived. All three factions learned at the same time that the final key, the Black Emperor Key, had appeared in Tianyi Water City.

“All five Emperor Keys have appeared. Will the Five Emperors’ treasure be unlocked during this trip to the Ancient Graveyard?” Bai Lan and the others looked excited.

The fact that the other factions had received the same news meant that Bai Lan would have to make a decision very quickly.

The Black Emperor Key’s location had been revealed. Bai Lan quickly gathered all his people and said, “The Black Emperor Key is a crucial item, and it has appeared in Tianyi Water City, in Tianyi Lake. It’s in the whirlpool part of Tianyi Lake, so the common person can’t enter. Only Brother Lei and I are capable of going in there to fight for the key. In order to avoid unnecessary deaths, everyone other than Brother Lei shall return to guard Heavenly Wood City. Go wait for news from us!”

“Brother Bai is right. The people of the Thunder clan shall go back too. Instruct our clan to return to Heavenly Wood City. Although we have come to the Ancient Graveyard, we must not have too many casualties,” Lei Ji instructed decisively.

The Ninth Earthly Martial Stage experts of the Thunder Demon Faction did not object. Suxue did not object either. Long Chen did not want to return to Heavenly Wood City and initially wanted to voice his thoughts. However, he had an idea and decided not to speak, which made it seem like he was going to follow Bai Lan and Lei Ji’s instructions.

After giving their orders, Bai Lan looked at Long Chen and said, “While we’re gone, you will be the strongest person on the Thunder and Demon clans’ side. Always think of the overall situation before acting.”

Long Chen felt like Bai Lan had figured out his plan, but some things simply had to be done. Therefore, Long Chen said hurriedly, “Don’t worry. Everything will be fine.”

It was an urgent matter, so Bai Lan and Lei Ji departed immediately. When they were gone, the Divine Wind Faction’s Wu Lian and Feng Qing, as well as the Five Elements Alliance’s Ancestor Jin and the five patriarchs, left their groups at the same time. Without saying a word, all of them traveled in the direction of Tianyi City. �

Tianyi City was in the Five Elements Alliance’s territory!

The Long-Bearded Guest did not know what was going on, but when he saw them move, he knew that all he needed to do was follow them.

Suddenly, all the Heavenly Martial Realm masters were gone.

“Princess, Prince Consort. Don’t cause conflict with other people. We should go back now,” one of the Sect Elders of the Demon clan said hurriedly.

Long Chen’s eyes met Feng Zhilin’s. Looking at the crestfallen young girl, the corner of his lips curled up into a cold smirk.

The heavily injured Wu Guangyu was lying in her arms.

“Long Chen, what are you looking at?” Suxue asked suspiciously. She felt like there was something between him and Feng Zhilin.

“Nothing, let’s go.” Long Chen smiled.

“Xiaolang, just wait. I’ll be back very soon …” This was what Long Chen said to Xiaolang just as he was leaving.

The members of all three factions returned to their bases. Under Wu Lian’s instructions, the Divine Wind Faction went back to Giant Metal City in the Metal District.

That place was closer to Tianyi Water City anyway.

The Eternal Battlefield suddenly became empty.

Long Chen followed the Demon clan’s party for a short while, then he said suddenly, “Everyone, after some thought, I would like to go to Tianyi Water City. You all may return to Heavenly Wood City.”

Everyone was puzzled by Long Chen’s sudden decision. Of course, he was currently ranked very high in the Thunder and Demon clans, so they would listen to his decision.

“My father and Uncle Lei will be there. Why are you still going?” asked Suxue.

“The Black Emperor Key is in Tianyi Water City’s whirlpool, and I’m strong enough to enter. The search for the Black Emperor Key will require luck more than anything, and when I go there, I can help out too. Plus, the combat technique I am cultivating requires a treasure of the water element. That is why I would like to search for one at Tianyi Water City. Heavenly Wood City won’t be in any trouble; you all may return.”

“No way, I’m going with you,” Suxue said hurriedly, worried about him.

“Go back.” Long Chen glared at her, then he bade everyone farewell.

“Alright … You didn’t have to be so fierce …” The elegant and sophisticated Princess Suxue suddenly became a wronged little girl next to Long Chen, acting almost like Princess Suyan. Everyone was very surprised.

“Be very careful,” she said worriedly when he departed.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. Everyone, be careful too.” Long Chen walked away, waved, then quickly disappeared into the Wood District’s thick forest.

“What a strange guy. Even now, I still don’t understand … How did he survive Wu Guangyu’s attack?”

“I don’t know either. Long Chen has always been a strange one. It’s as if there is nothing he can’t do. There might be a possibility that he’ll actually get the Black Emperor Key too.”

“Of course,” Suxue said proudly.

“Princess Suxue, you are lucky to have such a good husband. You guys will have a grand wedding when we return to the Ten Thousand Nations Territory. The billions of citizens across the Ten Thousand Nations Territory will come to know that the Princess’ husband is more talented than the Princess, and more powerful …”

Everyone chipped in with agreement.

The two brothers, Lei Wen and Lei Wu, also followed suit.

If only it was as good as what you all say. But that brat’s heart is not with me. Yan’er sticks to him so much too, so it will never be my turn … Although Suxue looked a bit shy, there was endless bitterness in her heart.

Amidst laughter, they all traveled back to Heavenly Wood City. They did not know that a storm was brewing behind them, and the source of the storm was Long Chen.

***

The Thunder and Demon clans’ party wasn’t far from the Eternal Battlefield when Long Chen turned around, so he easily spotted the Divine Wind Faction’s party with the Soul Swallowing Gaze. He was looking at Feng Zhilin, Wu Guangyu, and Xiaolang, as well as the other elders of the clans.

All of them were at the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage.

None of them were weaklings. If he wanted to kill them all at once, he would need to pay a price. And if one of them escaped to inform Wu Lian that Long Chen had attacked them, it was possible that not even Bai Lan would be able to protect him.

Wu Guangyu is currently under their protection. I can’t go kill him now. Looks like I need to wait for Wu Guangyu’s wounds to heal a little. Then I’ll get Xiaolang to lure him out.

Long Chen wanted to get Xiaolang back, and the other objective was to kill Wu Guangyu.

Long Chen was not a merciful person. Wu Guangyu had attempted to kill him, and he had almost succeeded thanks to the Azure Lotus Manual. There was no way Long Chen was going to let him live after that.

Wu Guangyu was currently injured, so he wouldn’t go anywhere alone right now. If Long Chen wanted to kill him without anyone knowing, he would have to lure him to a deserted area.

According to Bai Lan, that woman Wu Lian is even stronger than he is. I need to be careful about offending her, so I need to act conservatively.

Long Chen formed a plan.

He had not been able to kill Wu Guangyu in the finals, so at the time, he had thought of using the Black Emperor Key. But since Wu Guangyu was heavily injured, he couldn’t go to Tianyi Water City with Wu Lian.
