The elder roared and charged straight at Long Chen, his Emperor qi rising violently.“He’s going to detonate!” Long Ziwei cried out in shock. However, the Dragonblood warriors standing at the front merely looked on coldly, showing no intention of defending or attacking.
Long Chen eyed him coldly. “You’re gutless. When you sneak-attacked the High Firmament Academy, you used your Emperor might to suppress the academy’s experts. You should have thought of the consequences back then. If you had courage, you would have died fighting on the battlefield. If you had brains, you would have realized we had a reason for letting you go. If you had loyalty to your sect, you wouldn’t have brought this calamity upon it. If you had any righteousness, you wouldn’t have hidden and made that old fellow die for you. You are a gutless, brainless person without loyalty or righteousness. I don’t believe you have the courage to self-detonate. You were just putting on a show.”
The elder clenched his teeth, his whole body shaking, fear filling his eyes. His weaknesses were fully exposed by Long Chen.
“Since you cherish your life so much, why must you trample over other people’s lives?” asked Guo Ran. He raised his hand to kill this elder, but Long Chen stopped him.
“Ziwei, you send him on his way!” said Long Chen.
Although the elder was a half-step Human Emperor, Long Chen felt it was unsuitable for a Dragonblood warrior to kill him. He called for Long Ziwei instead.
Long Ziwei might be someone who didn’t fear heaven and earth, but he felt a chill at the thought of killing a half-step Human Emperor. However, since Long Chen had commanded it, he gritted his teeth and stepped forward, suppressing his fear. His sword pierced the elder’s head.
The elder didn’t even dare to move. He simply let Long Ziwei’s sword take his life. And just like that, a half-step Human Emperor’s corpse fell to the ground.
“We’ll drag you down with us!” The remaining members of the Free and Unfettered Sect’s people roared, drawing their weapons. But even as they did, no one dared to actually step forward.
Long Chen didn’t even bother looking at them, but seeing the expressions on Long Ziwei and the others’ faces, he knew what they were thinking.
Long Chen calmly said, “I’ll give you a lesson today. Remember, never have mercy for your enemies, because when their weapons pierce your heart, your mercy won’t protect you. To have mercy on your enemies is to forget why you’re fighting them. It is a kind of betrayal of yourself. Think about it. If the barrier had been broken back then, would our ending be any better than theirs?”
Long Ziwei had felt slightly bad after killing the half-step Human Emperor. After all, such a high and mighty figure dying like that was rather sorrowful. It easily triggered his sympathy.
However, Long Chen’s words were like thunder exploding in their minds. They looked at the people holding their weapons and glaring at them hatefully. If the barrier had been broken back then, would they even have had a chance to glare at their enemies?
Long Ziwei’s sympathy toward them instantly vanished. When he saw those people holding their weapons, killing intent blazed in his eyes.
“They’re not the ones who made the mistakes. For every grievance, there is someone responsible. It won’t be too late to kill them when they come for vengeance,” said Long Chen indifferently. He then waved his hand, and Xia Chen activated his formation discs again.
Once Long Chen and the others vanished, the Free and Unfettered Sect’s disciples were thrown into a panic. Furious roars echoed out through the entire sect.
Following that, they actually began to kill each other. They were incredibly vicious, attacking each other like the other party had killed their parents. If Long Chen and the others saw this, they would definitely be dumbfounded.
In truth, the Free and Unfettered Sect’s was split into several large factions. Now, with their strongest experts dead, they were like a group of dragons with no head. They immediately started fighting over the sect’s resources and treasures. Rivers of blood flowed around the treasury in particular.
Long Chen had no idea about their politics. Of course, even if he knew, he would only laugh disdainfully. This was human nature.
The void quivered, revealing an island in the middle of a sea.
.
This was the sea demon race’s territory. When Long Chen and the others arrived, terrifying auras rose. Before Long Chen could even say a thing, numerous pillars of water exploded, and sea demons surrounded them. They were prepared for combat.
Seeing this, Long Chen directly skipped the first step and ordered, “There’s no need to say anything. Kill them!”
“Kill!”
With Long Chen’s command, the Dragonblood warriors charged forward, followed by the Starry River Sect’s disciples, the Jiuli bloodline mercenaries, and the High Firmament Academy’s disciples.
Heaven-shaking roars echoed as Emperor might raged. At this moment, a colossal sea demon with a human head and serpentine body appeared, wielding a bone trident that radiated immense Emperor might.
When Long Chen saw it, his heart shook. This sea demon was much stronger than the Human Emperors that had attacked the academy. This one was a true expert.
The Human Emperors from the Zither Sect, Chess Sect, and Celestial race had relied on their high status and cultivation base to suppress others, but their combat abilities had long since deteriorated. While they were accustomed to winning by sheer force, this sea demon was different. Its aura made it clear that it fought regularly; it was a seasoned warrior.
Just as Long Chen prepared to join the battle, Xia Chen shouted, “Boss, Zifeng, hold back! Give us a chance!”
A dozen talismans shot out of Xia Chen’s hand and exploded on the sea demon, unleashing flames and lightning that made it scream in pain.
Long Chen was startled. The energy from those talismans was clearly from Huo Linger and Lei Linger.
“Hehe, big brother Xia Chen asked us for a bit of our core energy to inscribe some runes. We gave it to him, but we didn’t expect the talismans to be this powerful,” giggled Huo Linger.
Long Chen instantly understood. Xia Chen had used the runes to push Huo Linger and Lei Linger’s power to their limit within the talismans.
As the sea demon was injured by these talismans, Gu Yang attacked with his new spear. After a flurry of attacks, Gu Yang was sent flying, spitting out blood. Compared to this Human Emperor sea demon, his power was still lacking. He was unable to take advantage of Xia Chen’s support to kill it.
Wiping away the blood from his mouth, Gu Yang roared, “Again!”
As his manifestation shook and his dragon blood power ignited, he charged forward once again.
As the battle raged on, the island began to quiver. Suddenly, an aura so powerful it shook the heavens erupted. In comparison, the sea demon Human Emperor seemed insignificant.
“Is this island alive?!” Long Chen cried out in shock.
