Long Chen, release Elder Lu Tian now! Dont provoke them any further! Qing Yi pleaded.Meanwhile, Xue Ying stared at Long Chens back with an expression of shock.
Long Chen had no idea of the Starry River Palaces power, but he still dared to challenge them all on his own.
If anyone else behaved like this, Xue Ying would have dismissed them as a fool beyond redemption. But Long Chen was different. She knew he was not a fool.
Right now, she only saw fearlessnessan unstoppable momentum born of absolute self-confidence.
But no matter how fearless Long Chen was, he didnt have the power to challenge the entire Starry River Palace. Against such a behemoth, he was like an egg striking a stone.
So where did that confidence come from?
There was no sweeping elder here to support him. He could rely only on himself.
Qing Yi, what are you doing? a voice barked sharply. Make that brat release Elder Lu Tian at once!
More and more experts appeared, their sharp auras locking onto Long Chen.
Are you blind? Im the one stepping on him. What does it have to do with Elder Qing Yi? Are you always targeting her because she is an outsider to you? asked Long Chen coldly.
You
The speaker was another Elder, his expression twisting with rage. It was his first time encountering such an unyielding nine star heir from the nine heavens.
As a disciple of the nine star line, you have attacked and injured an Elder. Going against your superiors is a serious offense. Shouldnt you hurry up and release Elder Lu Tian before things get worse? demanded this Elder.
This Elder was also a peak Sovereign Lord. From his tone, he should have a somewhat close relationship with Lu Tian.
However, Long Chen clasped his hands behind his back and continued pressing his foot down on Lu Tian.
Going against my superiors? Just who is my superior? Who decided this rule? The stars share their light equally. Under their light, how can you decide who is superior and who is inferior? We, nine star heirs from the nine heavens, have inherited the will of the Star Master. We are not beggars or vagrants. Every single nine star heir is their own person, with their own dignity and honor.
We endured the pursuit of the Brahma line and passed through cracks in between worlds to come here. We risked our lives to get stronger, all to avenge our seniors who sacrificed themselves in battle. We did not come here to curry favor, to endure humiliation, or to let you trample our dignity beneath your feet!
Long Chens voice was steady, filled with a righteous force that pierced straight into the heart. It echoed through the void.
All the nine star heirs from the nine heavens were affected by his words.
Those words were precisely what they had never dared to say out loud.
You youre just deceiving people with words! the elder shouted, furious yet unable to refute a single point.
At this sight, Qing Yi grew even more anxious.
Long Chen
If this continued, Long Chen would offend the entire Starry River Palace. At that point, there would be no place for him here.
But Long Chen raised a hand, stopping her.
Looking directly at that Elder, Long Chen asked, As fellow nine star heirs, as cultivators beneath the same starry sky, we are all disciples of the Star Master. What qualifications do you have to criticize us?
My higher cultivation base, my seniority, and my power! If you dont agree, then release Elder Lu Tian. I will give you a chance. If you can beat me, then I, Jiang Beifeng, will take responsibility for everything that happens here!
Unable to argue his way out, Jiang Beifeng had to rely on his age and power alone, without realizing that he had just handed Long Chen what he wanted.
Ah, I see, Long Chen said calmly. Even in the Starry River Palace, the stronger fist decides who is right; the strong can bully the weak. In that case, isnt it natural for me to crush the fellow beneath my foot? Why are you angry then?
When Jiang Beifeng heard this, his head swelled like a pigs. He gnashed his teeth but couldnt find a single word to retort.
Meanwhile, Long Chen looked around, not sensing anyone stronger here.
It seemed that some kind of barrier had blocked his words, so they hadnt reached the inner palace.
These people seemed to view Jiang Beifeng as their leader. They wanted to settle things quietly without alerting the higher-ups.
Realizing that, Long Chen sneered contemptuously. Did they truly believe just a few of them could bury the truth?
Long Chen, stop now before things get worse! Jiang Beifeng shouted. Release Elder Lu Tian and things can still be resolved peacefully. If not, everyone with you will be implicated!
Seeing that Long Chen was not moving, Jiang Beifeng tried to threaten him.
The nine star heirs on the warship exploded in anger. Had they just become hostages to coerce Long Chen?
Even the mild-mannered Qing Yi was enraged. Jiang Beifeng had gone too far this time. But before she could say anything, Long Chen raised his hand again.
All of a sudden, a surge of astral energy shook the world.
Space twisted around Jiang Beifeng, and his expression changed sharply. His own astral energy erupted in response.
But he was a step too slow.
The twisting space formed a powerful pull, yanking Jiang Beifeng straight right at Long Chen.
Starlight appeared on Long Chens palm, and it viciously flew through the air.
BOOM!
Jiang Beifengs astral battle armor shattered.
This slap solidly struck his face and turned him into a shooting star flying toward the Starry River Palace.
However, before he could reach the palaces, another barrier appeared. He slammed into it with such force that cracks spread across its surface.
Blood sprayed from his mouth as his body slid down the barrier. He lost consciousness.
One Elder was beneath Long Chens foot, while the other was slapped unconscious. The Starry River Palaces experts couldnt believe it. Only now did they realize that this young disciple was not an ordinary nine star heir.
As for the nine star heirs from the nine heavens, they were all watching excitedly. They bore witness to Long Chens domineering side.
Who dares to cause trouble in the Starry River Palace?!
Just then, a mighty womans voice rang out.
Powerful Sovereign might crashed down, suffocating the new disciples.
This was a Divine Sovereign of the nine star linefar stronger than any Divine Sovereign Qing Yi had faced.
A woman who appeared to be in her thirties emerged. When she saw Long Chen stepping on Lu Tian, her expression darkened.
Courting death!
She roared and unleashed a palm strike. A terrifying suction force surged toward Long Chen, attempting to lift him up.
Long Chen snorted and pressed the void with his finger. Astral energy erupted like a ripple of destruction.
A light screen around Long Chen shattered.
This woman had tried to pull Long Chen toward her. Unfortunately, it was the same move Long Chen had just used, and he was all too familiar with it. Just breaking one tiny part of her divine ability was enough to shatter it.
Seeing this, the woman was instantly enraged. Killing intent surged in her eyes.
She raised her had. Her entire arm became cloaked in stars as a terrifying pressure locked onto Long Chen.
Instantly, the disciples behind Long Chen fell to their knees. This terrifying pressure was something only Qing Yi and Xue Ying could barely resist.
Long Chen narrowed his eyes. A cold glint of killing intent flashed through them.
He recognized this stancethe opening posture of the Starry River God Extinguishing Spear.
If she truly dared to unleash this attack, Long Chen would not allow her to leave this world alive.
Lu Yin, what do you think youre doing?!
Just then, a cold shout rang out.
Another warship whistled in, and a large group of blood-soaked figures appeared.
