Dragon Blooded War God

The attack was too weak for Long Chen. With the reinforcement of the Five Emperor Palm, Long Chen pierced through her technique. The glittering Three Thousand Star Clusters was placed against her throat in an instant. The sharp tip made a tiny wound on her neck, drawing a single drop of blood.

It wasn’t lethal, but everyone was still shocked because Long Chen would’ve killed her if he pushed the Three Thousand Star Cluster with just a bit more force.

Liu Qing’er would’ve been dead if Long Chen had not shown her mercy.

Everyone was shocked by this outcome.

The result had been determined in just a single instant.

“Young lady, the winner has been decided. Please honor your words.”

Long Chen smiled and put the Three Thousand Star Clusters away.

He hadn’t killed her because they were in Scarlet Water City. He would’ve ended her life without hesitation if they were outside.

Liu Qing’er was still dazed because she couldn’t believe the outcome of the battle, but the pain on her neck was a clear sign that she had lost. She would’ve died if Long Chen hadn’t shown mercy.

But she grew angry because she had never tasted what it was like to be granted mercy by someone else!

Her eyes were wide as she looked at Long Chen with undeniable killing intent.

“What’s wrong? You aren’t satisfied with the result?” Long Chen wasn’t afraid of her, so he looked at her with a grin.

Liu Qing’er had no choice but to hold back her killing intent right now. She needed to maintain her reputation, so she could not embarrass herself here.

“What’s your name?”

“Long Chen.”

Long Chen undid his transformation.

“Long Chen? Hehe.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

She chuckled and left without saying anything. Even though she was the one who had wrecked the inn, the owner dared not ask her for any payments. It was clear that Liu Qing’er was slightly influential here in Scarlet Water City.

She was halfway outside when she turned and looked at him. “You will be staying here for some time, right? You don’t look like you are from here.”

“Who said that I’m not from Scarlet Water City?”

“Haha!” Liu Qing’er laughed. She was just about to leave when a large commotion came from afar.

At the same time, Long Chen was checking on Xiong Jun and the others. Thankfully, he had intervened right on time, so most of them weren’t seriously injured. They would recover soon if they rested for a bit.

Xiong Jun lowered his head, “Big Brother Long Chen, I’m sorry for causing trouble for you.”

Long Chen smiled because he knew that this was indeed going to be troublesome for him. Liu Qing’er was a vicious person, so there was no chance she would let the matter go, but there was nothing Long Chen could do but smile helplessly. “It seems that your plan is done for. You should head back to your tribe as soon as possible. She’s aiming for my head, so I can just stay here until all of you have gone back.”

“No! We can’t just leave you behind!” Xiong Wan’er refused to let Long Chen stay here alone. Xiong Jun was the one who had incurred the wrath of Liu Qing’er, so there was no way he could leave Long Chen alone here to fight.

“No, you guys will be dragging me down by staying here.”

They were indeed holding Long Chen back. If he was alone, he could offend anyone and just escape using Blood Warp. He wouldn’t have to make any extra effort to save anyone. 𝐫

Xiong Jun and the others nodded only after he said that.

But the large commotion outside soon reached the entrance of the inn. Long Chen raised his head and saw several people dressed in exquisite outfits enter. Liu Qing’er was smiling and holding onto the arm of one of them. Her moody and vicious face had completely changed into a kind smile.

The man she was holding onto was large and burly, not dissimilar to Xiong Jun. But while Xiong Jun looked barbaric, the man looked more refined, like a noble. He wore a blue robe, had short hair, and his eyes were sharp. He looked like a bear that had learned etiquette and kept all of its bloodthirst deep in its eyes.

Beside the man was a middle-aged man. He had black hair and a beard and he maintained a constant smile. He looked very approachable, but Long Chen knew that people like him were very strong.

Long Chen couldn’t detect how strong the man was, but it was most likely above the Seventh Heavenly Martial Stage, or at least very close to the demons from before.

The demons were indeed weak here in the Three Royal Territory. There were already several individuals who were as strong as them even though Long Chen was only in a small place like Scarlet Water City.

But the man wasn’t the center of everyone’s attention.

The man was passionately escorting someone else. A man jumped down from an entirely black war horse. When Long Chen saw the horse, he had a strange feeling, so he used Sight. To his surprise, the horse didn’t have a soul! Rather, there was a massive lump of energy inside it. Long Chen noted that the horse itself was almost as strong as the man riding it.

More importantly, rather than a living being, the horse was made from some unknown metal. Its blood-red eyes were lifeless, but they still glittered with light as if they were paper lanterns.

What is that? A puppet? How is it that strong?

Back in Yuanling City, Long Chen had seen the steel puppets. They were simple and weak, but the puppet in front of him now was terrifying. There were various blood-red runes on the war horse, and every time it moved, the runes swirled and consumed overlord spiritual Qi to transform it into energy. The blood-red runes were complex, to the point that Long Chen couldn’t memorize a single symbol even though he had been staring at it for a long time.

“Sis… Sister! He’s the Underworld Soldier!”

Xiong Jun looked at the man dismounting from the horse in awe.

Long Chen looked at the so-called Underworld Soldier. He was a tall man wearing full-body armor. The armor was black and had inky green runes surfacing it from time to time. A strange force flowed in the armor.

Back in the Ancient Graveyard, Long Chen had seen Jin Ling using the Golden Emperor’s Armor. The armor in front of him right now was similar, but because this was the special armor fashioned for the Underworld Soldiers specifically, its runes were very complicated. It was also very strong. Those wearing it would have their power greatly amplified!

“That’s the Underworld Armor! It can increase your essence by three times!”

“He looks so cool!”

“If only I could touch the armor once!”

The youths from the barbaric tribe were clamoring and looking at the Underworld Soldier with awe.

The Underworld Soldier looked serious, and he had an air to him that warned others that he would kill without hesitation. When Long Chen saw the Underworld Soldier’s eyes, he knew that the person had taken many, many lives. The aura he emitted was stronger than that of the man Liu Qing’er was holding onto.

The young man, the middle-aged man, and the Underworld Soldier walked into the inn. They ignored everyone as they spoke amongst themselves.

“Mayor, I will stay in this inn for now. There’s no need to spread news about me around. You should know how strict our laws are. I will head back to Scarlet Sun Medium City once the auction for the Heavenly Fortune Pill has been completed.”

The Underworld Soldier’s voice was deep and magnetic. Those who heard him were attracted to how it sounded.

The middle-aged man he was talking to was none other than the mayor.

“I shall heed your words, Master Zhao, since you wish to stay here. I do understand that you have a lot of rules to obey. But if you need the Heavenly Fortune Pill, I can always tell the auction to give it to you directly,” said the mayor.

He then looked at Liu Qing’er, who was currently holding the arm of his son. “Qing’er, go ask your father to give the Heavenly Fortune Pill to Master Zhao.”

Liu Qing’er beamed. “Of course.”

“No.” The Underworld Soldier’s expression was serious. “Since it’s an auction, I will obey its rules and purchase it using Emperor Crystals. It’s a Heavenly Fortune Pill, so it shouldn’t cost too much. I don’t want the others to gossip about it when I get back.

“I’m only passing here because of my duty, but I caught wind of the Heavenly Fortune Pill and wanted to see it. Thank you very much for your hospitality. If you don’t mind, I would like to consider us brothers. You are the mayor, and I’m just a single Underworld Soldier. I fear that it’s not appropriate for you to call me ‘master.’”

The mayor laughed. “No, no. There’s no need to worry. It’s just an oversight on my part. We have no objections to you following the rules. But I fear that no one will bid on the Heavenly Fortune Pill after hearing that you are interested in it.”

The Underworld Soldier laughed when he heard that.

Soon, the Underworld Soldier was given the best room under the arrangement of Scarlet Water City.

The woman called Liu Qing’er whispered to the son of the mayor. Soon, the burly youth turned to Long Chen, and killing intent spilled from him.

Here comes trouble. Long Chen knew that trouble had arrived.

As expected, the youth approached Long Chen when the mayor was escorting the Underworld Soldier up to the second floor.

“You dare bully Qian Canglong’s woman? Do you want to die?”

The youth stood in front of Long Chen and glared at him.
