Chapter 167 - I Want To Save You

Chapter 167 - I Want To Save You

One’s true colors were always exposed in times of trouble.

When Jin Sheng’en and the others showed up, Long Chen didn’t run off and leave Yin Mengyao behind. At this point, he had already saved her from the venomous snakes, and she was extremely grateful for his act of kindness.

In the beginning, she bore a little contempt for Long Chen, but now he was her rock.

Even in this critically dangerous moment, she looked at Long Chen, only to see that he was calm without a hint of fear on his face.

Jin Sheng’en and Chu Yunxi were both top five in the qualifiers, especially Jin Sheng’en, who was known as the number one prodigy of the outer families. He was nearly strong enough to match someone at the late Earthly Core Realm!

“You guys want to kill me?” Long Chen smiled nonchalantly.

“You’re so close to death, and yet you still dare to talk to me like that? Do you think you will be given a chance to use the signal flare with us here?” threatened Chu Yunxi viciously, biting his lip.

Long Chen grinned with one hand already on Yin Mengyao’s shoulder.

“Xiao Xi, when needed, give me a bit of assistance. But remember never to use more than half of your soul power,” whispered Long Chen as he glared at them coldly.

He clearly understood the situation he was in. If he wasn’t completely focused, he would likely die here.

“Alright, I understand,” Ling Xi replied anxiously.

On the other side, Jin Sheng’en and Chu Yunxi locked eyes and prepared to attack.

“You took my woman, then you dared to insult the Grand Elder in public! Long Chen, I think that’s a crime punishable by death ...” Chu Yunxi licked his lips and strode forward, closing in on Long Chen.

“Haha ...” Long Chen tipped his head back and laughed loudly. “Could you stop being so funny? You should rely on your own abilities to win a woman over! Since when was Liu Lan yours? She’s mine now! Eh, I forgot to tell you—the taste of her was just so memorable to me ...” As he spoke, there was a reminiscing look in his eyes as he stuck out his tongue and licked his lips in a circle.

“What did you say?! You two have already ...?!”

When Chu Yunxi heard Long Chen, he exploded in rage.

It was obvious from Long Chen’s words that his relationship with Liu Lan had progressed to that level. When he pictured the woman he thought about night and day lying beneath Long Chen’s crotch, his breathing quickened and his eyes gradually turned blood-red!

“Long Chen, you must die!”

He suddenly charged at Long Chen like a violent tornado!

“Billowing Cloud Finger!”

The formidable attack, the twisting wind, and the clouds reminded Long Chen of the incident at Liu Lan’s quarters at the Turquoise Willow Residence.

He had been severely injured by Chu Yunxi’s Billowing Cloud Finger that day!

Despite Long Chen’s attempts to explain, Chu Yunxi didn’t believe him and stubbornly insisted on killing him. It was the same this time—he was determined to kill Long Chen!

Would I, Long Chen, ever let the same thing happen twice?

With that thought, the corner of his lips curled into a cold smirk.

This brat really has a one-track mind. It’s so easy to provoke him!

Long Chen was relaxed in the face of an opponent like this, who was all brawn but no brains.

Although Chu Yunxi and Jin Sheng’en were extremely powerful, they were no match for Long Chen in a battle of wits.

When Chu Yunxi activated his Billowing Cloud Finger, Long Chen started moving.

With a cold glint in his eyes, he grabbed Yin Mengyao by the waist. There was no time to worry about what was appropriate at a time like this.

This pretty girl is so soft, and she smells so good!

A perverted thought floated through his mind even at this critical moment.

Then he forced himself to think. Mo Xiaolang is only fourteen. He might not even know what a woman is. Yin Mengyao is probably just his friend, so she doesn’t count as a good friend’s woman. Therefore, he wouldn’t mind ...

But the moment he thought of Ling Xi, he was privately startled, and his expression turned from perverted to saintly.

At this point, Chu Yunxi’s Billowing Cloud Finger was fast approaching.

Although it wasn’t an advanced Black-tier combat technique, it was still an excellent intermediate Black-tier. Other than Yin Mengyao’s Churning Sea Seal, this was the most powerful attack he had witnessed at the qualifiers!

Nine Heavens Dragon Step!

To Chu Yunxi’s shock, Long Chen did not face his attack directly. Instead, he used a Body Combat Technique to turn and escape with Yin Mengyao in his arms!

“Are you still trying to run?”

Chu Yunxi chuckled darkly, and his movements quickened. The Billowing Cloud Finger attack chased after Long Chen, howling as it flew forward!

However, he didn’t notice that the two other Gold family teenagers were standing where Long Chen was running towards!

The two of them were startled when they saw him running towards themselves and wanted to step aside to let Chu Yunxi and Long Chen duel, but Jin Sheng’en yelled, “Stop them!”

This meant that they couldn’t avoid it anymore.

To them, stopping a newbie who had just entered the Earthly Core Realm was a simple task.

Long Chen was currently in his dragon form.

Chu Yunxi’s violent, howling Billowing Cloud Finger was very close. When it looked like it was about to hit him, Long Chen’s speed skyrocketed and he appeared in front of the two teenagers in the blink of an eye!

A ray of cold starlight appeared on the tip of his finger.

Long Chen then did something that shocked everyone present. All he did was raise one shining fingertip, but it was enough to neutralize the two Gold prodigies’ combined attack. Then he quickly slipped over to the side of one of them and slapped him so hard that he flew towards Chu Yunxi!

“What?!”

Jin Sheng’en and Chu Yunxi gasped!

Long Chen’s speed initially aligned with their assumption of what an initial Earthly Core Realm cultivator should’ve been capable of, but the subsequent acceleration exceeded even the mid Earthly Core Realm!

The two prodigies initially thought to casually use an elementary Black-tier combat technique to force him back, since they thought he was only an initial Earthly Core Realm cultivator.

What they didn’t expect was for him to suddenly accelerate so much. And the starlight in his hand seemed powerful enough to destroy the world! It instantly neutralized their combined attack, and he even slapped one of them so effortlessly!

“How is Long Chen so strong?”

Jin Sheng’en was extremely puzzled. When Long Chen was at the late Human Core Realm, he couldn’t even take one hit from Chu Yunxi. Even though he had reached the Earthly Core Realm, there was still a huge gap between them. But Long Chen’s performance was astonishing!

He must have used a special trick! I mustn’t let him escape!

When Long Chen’s speed suddenly increased, many thoughts flew through Jin Sheng’en’s head. Jin Sheng’en ran as fast as he could, circling around Chu Yunxi, and gave chase.

Initially, Chu Yunxi’s Billowing Cloud Finger was meant to kill Long Chen. But when the other teenager was slapped over to him, he was put directly in the Billowing Cloud Finger’s trajectory!

If he was hit, he would die!

Fortunately, Chu Yunxi had great control over the technique. He quickly diverted it at the critical moment, so it hit a tall, strong tree!

Boom!

The blast left a large hole. The trunk could no longer support the crown, so it crashed into the ground.

At the same time, Chu Yunxi was blasted backwards by the shockwave!

In just this short moment, Long Chen had fled far away with Yin Mengyao in his arms!

How is Jin Sheng’en so fast?!

When Long Chen turned around, he gasped slightly because his current speed had exceeded that of the average mid Earthly Core Realm cultivator, but Jing Sheng’en was catching up!

It makes sense. I think we’re both at the same level. But I’m carrying Yin Mengyao, so I’m slightly slower!

Jin Sheng’en was the only one who caught up, while the rest were left far behind.

“Long Chen, don’t even think about escaping! Once I catch up, you will die!”

Long Chen turned and smirked. “The problem is, Jin Sheng’en, can trash like you even catch up? Xiao Xi, now!”

He was well aware that Jin Sheng’en was going to catch up soon, so Long Chen had no choice but to get help from Ling Xi.

“Take this, you naughty boy!”

Under Long Chen’s command, the Ling Xi Sword on his ear suddenly expanded. A frowning Ling Xi emerged, shrouded in thick mist, and she waved her finger like a sword. Sword Qi rained down instantly! “Revolving Dream Immortal Sword Technique—Dancing Blade Shower!”

Countless tiny sword silhouettes shot out of the mist instantly like rain from the sky, whistling as they charged towards Jin Sheng’en!

The all-encompassing rain of sword silhouettes made Jin Sheng’en’s eyes widen and halted him in his tracks! “What is this?”

The silhouettes falling from the sky did not look strong, but he would turn into a porcupine if he rushed into them!

“You bastard! Long Chen, you’re so dead!”

When faced with such an obstacle, he roared in anger. All he could do was use a Body Combat Technique combined with an attack to deal with Ling Xi’s attack, while Ling Xi had long slipped back into the Ling Xi Sword and escaped with Long Chen.

The furious roars far behind only made him smirk. “Jin Sheng’en, Chu Yunxi! Let me tell you this: this isn’t because I’m afraid of you! I just want to defeat you in public, at the Mortal Caves! Now that will be a sight to see!”

Long Chen’s hearty laughter rang in their ears.

“Mortal Caves?”

Letting Long Chen escape initially infuriated them, but they felt better when they thought about how they could kill him at the Mortal Caves.

“I’ll let you live a little longer, then. The Mortal Caves round will have participants divided into four people per team. Jin Sheng’en and I will enter one each, so no matter which team you end up in, death will be inevitable!” Chu Yunxi yelled viciously as he stared in the direction Long Chen had sped off to.

They’d finally shaken off the Jin Sheng’en and Chu Yunxi. Long Chen ran a little longer, checked Yin Mengyao’s symptoms, and then searched for a spot to put her down.

At this point, she was even paler and her lips were pure black. The medicine she had consumed had not been effective.

When she saw beads of sweat on his forehead, she pursed her lips, touched.

“Long Chen, you can still make it. If you carry me to the Mortal Caves before I can’t hold on any longer, you could still qualify for the second round.”

“No, I want to save you,” said Long Chen decisively.
