Chapter 5175 Unexpected
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Long Chen arrived in a giant city controlled by the demonic beast race. However, experts from other races could also pass through if they paid the fee. Each city was governed by its own laws, reflecting the power and status of its rulers. Many races established their own cities not just as strongholds but also to showcase their dominance.This city was enormous. Although it couldn’t match the scale of Glacial Heaven City, it was still impressively large. As Long Chen stepped out, he saw hundreds of transportation formations lined up around him, with countless people waiting in line.
Most of these transportation formations were one-way, so Long Chen needed to queue at a different formation. As he walked off the formation, a smirk curled on his lips.
“Again.”
Long Chen sensed over ten streams of divine sense scanning him. Initially sweeping widely, these divine senses became noticeably more intense when they passed over him. It was clear that he was the target they were looking for.
“You are forcing my hand. Come, let me see how many people are tired of living,” sneered Long Chen.
Previously, he might have considered disguising himself to avoid trouble, but things had changed. With the Eight Star Battle Armor fully manifested, concealing himself was no longer an option, and he couldn’t run. The Eight Star Battle Armor seemed to carry a will of its own.
Besides, Long Chen had declared that he was unrivaled beneath the Human Emperor realm. If he concealed his aura and his face, even he would look down on himself.
Long Chen had once refrained from causing trouble, not out of fear, but to avoid unnecessary bloodshed. He didn’t want people to die at his hands simply because they were reckless. However, his stance had changed. If others sought their end, he felt no obligation to show them mercy.
At that moment, over ten figures appeared in the sky, their powerful heaven vein auras sending a wave of terror through the crowd. Among them were two six-vein Heaven Saints and the rest were three-vein Heaven Saints. The sheer presence of these figures caused those around to flee in panic.
These Heaven Saints surrounded Long Chen, who eyed them without saying anything. In any case, there was no need for him to say anything. The moment they attacked, he would send them on their way.
“Are you Long Chen?” shouted one of the six-vein Heaven Saints, his voice shaking with excitement.
“Why ask if you already know? If you want a Human Emperor divine weapon, come at me. It would be best if you were quick about it. After all, we’re all busy people,” replied Long Chen indifferently.
The moment Long Chen admitted his status, these Heaven Saints took out their weapons. The surrounding experts were stunned, staring at Long Chen in disbelief.
A youngster who had just advanced to the Eternal realm was surrounded by over ten Heaven Saints, and they even took out their weapons like they were facing some powerful enemy. The spectators’ hearts shook. Just who was this person?
Long Chen waited for them to attack, but then, an elderly voice rang out. “Stop!”
Long Chen’s heart shook. Although this person was meticulously concealing his aura, Long Chen could sense a trace of Emperor might from him.
Another half-step Emperor?
Long Chen hadn’t expected this place to be concealing such a powerful existence. Nonetheless, even if a half-step Human Emperor were among them, he wasn’t intimidated. He still waited for them to attack.
“Are you the High Firmament Academy’s Long Chen? Please, go up ahead!” That voice rang out once more.
“Patriarch!” One of the six-vein Heaven Saints exclaimed in disbelief. “He is—”
“Shut your mouth!” The elderly voice cut him off sharply, then continued warmly, “Dean Long Chen, please proceed as you wish.”
The revelation that Long Chen was associated with the High Firmament Academy and was its dean stunned those around him. The High Firmament Academy was renowned as the oldest academy in the nine heavens and ten lands. Hence, the fact that this young man was its dean left the crowd in stunned silence.
Long Chen himself was baffled by the elder’s actions but decided not to dwell on it. He calmly stepped onto the transportation formation, selected his destination, and disappeared from sight.
As Long Chen departed, the elders vanished as well, reappearing in the highest tower of the city. There, a wizened elder sat cross-legged on a bamboo mat.
“Patriarch, that was Long Chen, and his head is worth a Human Emperor divine weapon! Why let him go?!” exclaimed one of the six-vein Heaven Saints, his voice shaking. He couldn’t comprehend the elder’s logic at all.
“Fool, do you know why Long Chen’s life is worth a Human Emperor divine weapon when he’s just advanced to the Eternal realm?!” scolded the wizened elder.
“I don’t know, but…”
“But what? A Human Emperor divine weapon is incredibly valuable. Do you think the Brahma Pill Valley would offer one up for fun? They are definitely hiding something from us. You really are foolish. You were about to rashly attack Long Chen without understanding the full story. You’d have ended up dead without even knowing why,” the elder said coldly. “I sensed an aura from that young man that even made me feel uneasy. It was an extremely dangerous feeling.”
“Impossible! He’s just a—”
“Shut your mouth! Keep cutting me off and I’ll cut off your legs!” roared the half-step Human Emperor. “The reason I’ve survived to this day is my sharp sense of danger. Are you questioning my judgment?”
“I don’t dare!”
“First of all, even if you could kill Long Chen, do you really think you’d receive a Human Emperor divine weapon? What if the Brahma Pill Valley simply decides not to give it to you? Do you dare to take it from them?” the elder continued, his voice full of disdain.
“But…”
“Even if you do obtain a Human Emperor divine weapon, so what? If you provoke an existence that even the Brahma Pill Valley fears, who will protect you when they come for your head? Do you really think Pill Valley will stand in your defense?” the half-step Human Emperor demanded.
“You are speaking of the High Firmament Academy’s palace master?”
“Who else? Although he is a six-vein Heaven Saint, each of his heaven vein dragon qi can manifest heaven and earth. Even if I were to become a Human Emperor, I wouldn’t dare challenge him. Furthermore, the first academy of the High Firmament Academy has been fully awakened, and they have countless experts now. Even the Brahma Pill Valley is afraid of them. You were about to attack their dean for a Human Emperor divine weapon that you might never even receive. You would have ended up dead for nothing. Tell me, are you stupid?” The elder’s gaze was stern, and the others lowered their heads in silence.
“Pass news of Long Chen’s appearance to Pill Valley. That’s all we need to do for now. Before the situation is clear, don’t rashly do anything.”
Those people immediately left to carry out their orders, leaving the elder alone. Once no one else was around, the elder sighed and looked down at a piece of jade in his hand.
Black qi was slowly dissipating from the jade, revealing its white, glossy state with the character for “Life” inscribed in the center.
Looking at this jade tablet, the elder murmured to himself, “Fortunately this ancient jade can predict fortune and disaster. Otherwise, they’d have all died today. This Long Chen is too terrifying!”
