Dragon War God

Chapter 162 - Entering the Myriad Snake Lair!

Long Chen was not far from Yin Mengyao, so she panicked when she heard a man shouting in the distance.

It was fine if Long Chen had lost his jade bracelet but if he died or used his flare, her opportunity to join the inner family would be dashed.

The qualifiers were very important to her.

“You are forcing me to kill you!”

Yin Mengyao used her strongest technique.

At the same time, Long Chen placed Chen Xin’s body down and saw that the jade bracelet had indeed slipped out of his wrist. When he tried to collect it, the bracelet suddenly attached itself to his arm.

He now had two bracelets.

“If I were to get injured, I would lose both of them.”

Long Chen was happy after obtaining two bracelets.

His breakthrough to the Earthly Core Realm, the Level Two Blazing Thunder Combat Body, and the advanced Black-tier Sword Devil Finger had all been factors in defeating Chen Xin without any difficulties even without the Dragon Soul Transformation.

With the additional jade bracelet, Long Chen was one step closer to his goal.

“I wonder if she beat the other guy yet. I better go and check, or she might die from stress.”

Long Chen chuckled and walked over in Yin Mengyao’s direction.

“Who would worry about you? You are so obnoxious!”

Ling Xi rolled her eyes and pouted.

“That said, the Sword Devil Finger is very useful. I defeated him even without using my Dragon Soul Transformation.”

“This is nothing. It’s just something I came up with when I was younger to play.”

Ling Xi boasted when she recalled her past.

“Nonsense. You kept saying how powerful you were and yet you still became my servant.”

“Bastard! Who says I’m your servant?!”

They were messing around while walking. Even though they were quite close, Long Chen walked faster to prevent Ling Xi from tormenting his ear.

Ling Xi shut up to prevent Yin Mengyao from discovering her presence, but she was still not done with him.

Long Chen finally found where they were. He saw the youth from the Red family finally fall to Yin Mengyao’s attack. He was blown back, and blood splattered everywhere when he crashed into a tree.

He was confused as to why Chen Xin would take so long against Long Chen.

He had also heard someone shouting in the distance and thought Chen Xin had dealt the finishing blow. He had relaxed a little, but was puzzled as to why Chen Xin had not rushed over to assist him.

The longer he waited, the more panicked he got.

Soon after, Yin Mengyao got angry and finally defeated him.

Her attack had left him covered in frost and his face pale. His jade bracelet fell from his wrist and was taken by Yin Mengyao.

Long Chen’s team now had four bracelets. As long as they didn’t lose any, they were sure to enter the second stage.

It sounded easy, but it was very difficult in reality. Every team’s strengths were almost equal, so they could fight to the death and still not distinguish a clear victor.

There weren’t that many teams that could dominate the others like Long Chen and Yin Mengyao’s team.

After taking care of the youth, Yin Mengyao immediately ran over to where Long Chen was, but she saw him standing underneath a tree with a smile.

Even though his body was slightly dirty, there were no signs of combat or injuries on him. This was not what Yin Mengyao had expected.

Impossible, unless he was not the one who screamed just now?

Yin Mengyao finally showed a hint of emotion on her face.

Long Chen looked relaxed, as if he had not comprehended the horrors of Heaven’s Path. This made her think he was not as simple as he seemed.

She shook her head and thought it was hilarious.

Chen Xin’s strength is at the bottom of the barrel for the qualifiers. Since Long Chen could take care of him, that means that the rumor that he defeated an Earthly Core Realm cultivator at the Human Core Realm was not fake. He is indeed a genius.

Yin Mengyao snapped out of it after assessing what might’ve happened.

“You defeated Chen Xin?”

Yin Mengyao saw the two jade bracelets on Long Chen’s arm.

Her tone was cold, but it was filled with admiration and approval.

“Of course. How could he be my equal?”

Long Chen laughed obnoxiously.

Hearing that Chen Xin had lost to Long Chen, the other youth from the Red family fell unconscious.

Before he passed out, he saw that Long Chen was completely unscathed. He had no choice but to accept it.

Even Yin Mengyao accepted the fact that Long Chen had defeated Chen Xin. With four jade bracelets, they could now enter the second stage.

They could resume their journey now.

“Shall we continue?”

Yin Mengyao was glad to see that Long Chen wasn’t weak. This time, she asked for his suggestions too.

“Wait.”

Long Chen went back and picked up the unconscious Chen Xin. He then threw him towards the other youth and took out one of their flares.

He infused his Qi into it, then it shot into the air before exploding.

The bright colors filled the dark sky, and a roaring dragon appeared.

The dragon was made of sparks, and the sight was engraved in Long Chen’s eyes. He saw the vision of the glorious dragon and the golden age in which they ruled everything. Just like the flare, their brilliance lasted only a short period before they disappeared.

“Let’s go.”

Long Chen's heart started beating faster when he thought about the extinction of the dragons. His usual, cheerful demeanor was gone and was replaced with a silent seriousness instead.

Yin Mengyao turned around and looked at the youth.

They could’ve just left because the lives of the two youths from the Red family were not their responsibility. These were the qualifiers, where it was normal to lose your life.

Even though Long Chen had defeated them, he had also saved their lives.

There were numerous Poison Beasts and Poison Insects lurking around, so they could’ve died at any moment if they were left as they were.

It was clear that even though Long Chen was a powerful warrior, he was also kind. He was different from the others.

But why is he so serious now? What is he thinking about?

Yin Mengyao was curious. She intended to ask him numerous times, her long eyelashes fluttering from anticipation, but she resisted the urge.

Yin Mengyao was not the kind of person who would pry into someone else’s private matters.

Both of them remained silent while climbing up Heaven’s Path.

Yin Mengyao suddenly asked, “Long Chen, do you know about a place called the Myriad Snake Lair?”

Long Chen looked at her. Even though it was dark, he could see her eyes, as if they were stars in the night,

“No, I don’t. What about it?”

Yin Mengyao hesitated and then said, “I was wrong to underestimate you, so I hope you will accept my apologies.”

“Of course, I don’t mind.” Long Chen suddenly laughed.

“Hmm ...” Yin Mengyao nodded. “Fate has paired us together for this competition, but there is something I must do during the qualifiers. You can decide if you want to leave or not after listening to me.”

“Go ahead.” Long Chen stopped.

Yin Mengyao wasn’t one to waste time, so she went straight to the main point. “There are three candidates from the Silver family, and I have a grudge against the other two. I didn’t have the opportunity to deal with them before, so we promised that we would fight to the death at the Myriad Snake Lair here on Heaven’s Path.”

They had a grudge?

Long Chen was surprised to hear that they hated each other despite being from the same family. “You want me to help you defeat them?”

Yin Mengyao shook her head. “No, the grudge is too deep. It’s better if I settle it myself. If you agree to it, you can follow me and stay on the sidelines. You are quite strong, so you should be able to reach the Mortal Caves yourself. If you don’t, we can part ways here.”

Long Chen thought about it and said nothing.

“Don’t worry, I will do my best to survive so you can pass the first stage!”

Yin Mengyao was anxious. This matter was important to her, but she couldn’t just do this on her own without considering Long Chen’s thoughts. It was unfair for him to lose the chance to enter the inner family just because of her.

Long Chen smiled. “Let’s go.”

“What?”

“To the Myriad Snake Lair.”
