Chapter 6838 Shocking Origins

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Hahaha, good! Then, seven days from now, we will fight on Broken Heaven Mountain to decide who lives and who dies! I, Yan Sheng, will await you! I trust that with the Huayun Trading Companys guarantee, you wont run. Otherwise, the Huayun Trading Companys reputation will plummet to the ground.

Yan Sheng laughed delightedly as if his scheme had succeeded.

Long Chen apathetically said, Seven days is enough time for you to learn who I am. I suggest you prepare a ladle for yourself.

The crowd was confused.

A ladle? Wouldnt you normally say a coffin?

I think hes saying hell beat Yan Sheng into pulp, so hell need to ladle the dregs.

That black-robed fellow is arrogant! But I like it.

He must have some confidence. Perhaps he really can kill Yan Sheng.

Just as everyone started to get excited about that idea, someone else said, Dont let your hopes run too high. Yan Sheng is extremely powerful and has many secret tricks. Hes willing to use underhanded methods if needed. Many hate him, but they avoid provoking him because hes a terrifying opponent. I also hope that the black-robed man can succeed, but thats probably unrealistic."

If someone hated by everyone was so easy to kill, they were killed from the get-go. Beating Yan Sheng was as difficult as ascending to the heavens, let alone actually killing him.

Yan Sheng snorted and said, Hmph, little fellow, I dont care about your reputation outside. Here in the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture, youre simply a frog at the bottom of a well. Youll regret your arrogance.

As he departed, news quickly spread about his life-or-death fight with Long Chen.

Zheng Wenlong walked over to Long Chen and cupped his fist in an apology.

He said, Brother Long, Im sorry for being late. It seems things have become awkward because of that!

In theory, with the Huayun Trading Companys information network, someone should have been waiting for Long Chen the moment he stepped onto the transportation formation.

However, Zheng Wenlong had been too busy, not just with handling all the items Long Chen had given him this time. There was also a pile of affairs he had to deal with related to the other branches.

By the time someone reported Long Chen's arrival at the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture, news of his fight followed quickly. Zheng Wenlong hurried over right away, feeling quite embarrassed.

After all, Zheng Wenlong had been the one who invited Long Chen here, believing it was the best place for Long Chens development. He had wanted to demonstrate the power of his new status as Domain Lord. At the bare minimum, Long Chen should have been able to freely roam within his territory.

Meanwhile, forget about running rampant himself, Long Chen was immediately besieged by others the moment he arrived. Zheng Wenlong felt as if he had just been slapped in the faceso embarrassing.

Thus, the killing intent he had emitted for Yan Sheng just now had not been fake.

Long Chen waved off Zheng Wenlongs apology.

Theres no need to apologize. This is just my luck; Im used to it. People always get offended by my existence, and you know me, I tend to meddle. This kind of mess is just par for the course.

When Zheng Wenlong spotted the evil object by the altar, his pupils shrank. He seemed to recognize what it was.

However, this was not the place to ask about it, so he changed the subject.

Let me introduce you to my new friend, Long Chen said.

No need for introductions, Zheng Wenlong replied with a smile. Ive met the red-robed divine daughter several times. Moreover, the Flame God Sect is one of our larger clients.

Congratulations on your promotion to Domain Lord. Such a young Domain Lord might be very rare even in the entire history of the Huayun Trading Company! Chi Yutong congratulated, bowing.

It seemed the two were indeed old acquaintances.

However, when she first met Zheng Wenlong, he had not yet been promoted. It appeared that his role as Domain Lord was recent.

Thank you. This is all thanks to the blessing of the Wealth God and the continued support of my clients.

After exchanging some polite words, Zheng Wenlong turned back to Long Chen. Brother Long, youve just arrived at the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture. Do you wish to come to my branch and rest?

Im afraid youre too late. I have agreed to visit the Flame God Sect, replied Long Chen.

Chi Yutong was surprised. She had thought that Long Chen would go with Zheng Wenlong. It seemed she would have a chance to get to know this mysterious man.

Chi Yutong quickly said, Brother Longs battle with Yan Sheng will happen soon. You know that the Flame God Sects flame region battlefield is a well-known training ground across the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture. I believe Brother Long will have a better experience with us.

Zheng Wenlong couldnt help but smile bitterly.

He snorted indignantly at Long Chen. Brother Long, you came because of my invitation! This is a betrayal! It wont look good for your reputation if this gets out!"

Haha, I dont have a good reputation anyway. Ive long since stopped caring!

Hearing this, Chi Yutong couldnt help but feel even more curious. It seemed Long Chen was quite famous in the outside world.

Alright then. Its true that I am busy. Once Ive finished my work, Ill come find you! Zheng Wenlong said, patting Long Chens shoulder.

He then secretly warned him, Brother Long, be cautious of two things. Dont be fooled by Yan Shengs appearance; hes extremely sinister and will do anything if it benefits him. Dont underestimate him. Also, that evil statue isnt an ordinary object. The divine capital will certainly respond to this incident and come looking for you. Their inner workings are very complex, so be careful of them. If you need help, just send me a message.

Zheng Wenlong then politely bade farewell to Chi Yutong and left with his two guards.

Chi Yutong said somewhat enviously, I didnt expect you to be so close with Mister Wenlong!

A Domain Lord was someone in charge of all the resources of the Huayun Trading Company in their region. With such a connection, Long Chen could practically get whatever he wanted.

Long Chen smiled. I suppose you dont know that Brother Wenlong is actually an ascender from a lower world?

Chi Yutongs jaw dropped.

Long Chen continued, Hahaha, we'd been friends for a long time before we ascended. Isnt it natural for us to be close?

You are both ascenders?!

Chi Yutong was even more shocked. Based on her knowledge, ascenders from the lower world were usually very weak. Even after reaching the immortal world, they barely survived at its lowest levels.

She had never expected Zheng Wenlong, someone who had been promoted to a Domain Lord, to be an ascender. Nor could she imagine what kind of small world could produce two such remarkable individuals.

Now, she understood why the Domain Lord was so close to Long Chen. She also saw that drawing in Long Chen also meant pulling the Domain Lord. She couldn't help but admire her insight this time.

Come on, lets go. We should return to the Flame God Sect. In a bit, it might not be possible to leave, said Chi Yutong.

When she looked at the city lord, her expression sank. Long Chen is coing with me to the Flame God Sect. If you need anything, you can find me in the Flame God Sect!

Without awaiting Yunkong's response, she quickly took Long Chen onto the Scarlet Blood Battle Chariot and departed with the other disciples from the Flame God Sect.
