Chapter 704: Today’s Humiliation
But Long Chen reacted first!
This was the first time Long Chen would use the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal. It would use up all of his essence, so he didn’t want to use it, but there was no other choice.
Fwoosh!
A blood-red flame burned up in Long Chen’s palm. Since the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal was a technique that only required a palm to activate, Long Chen could release it with relative ease and speed. By the time he raised his arm, the seal in his right palm was already completed. He then thrusted his palm and shot the fiery seal forward!
“Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal!”
At the final moment, Long Chen’s right arm turned into flames, and the fire surged out from his Martial Meridian. The Scarlet Emperor Seal in his palm lit up and transformed into a large, fiery seal before being shot towards the young master!
Under Long Chen’s control, the seal became larger; itt was as big as a mountain by the time it was in front of the young master! The air burned up and a crackling sound could be heard.
“Die!” The fiery mountain fell downwards onto the young master!It was clear how desperate Long Chen was when he used this technique. He had used up all of his essence and condensed it into a single powerful strike to attack the young master!
No one had expected a single Third Earthly Martial Stage cultivator to exhibit such incredible strength!
It was an attack that even a regular Fifth Earthly Martial Stage cultivator would have difficulty using. The young master was caught unaware as the burning seal crashed into him.
“Huh?!” The hundreds of onlookers were shocked. They never thought someone so young could use such a destructive technique.
“How could someone at the Third Earthly Martial Realm use such a technique?”
“Judging by its strength, is it an Emperor-tier martial technique? How did a regular person get an Emperor-tier martial technique and even managed to cultivate it?”
Everyone was shocked, but what replaced that thought afterwards was greed. An Emperor-tier martial technique was a very tantalizing prize. Everyone at the scene took note of Long Chen’s appearance in hopes that they would be able to hunt him down one day.
But they also knew that Long Chen wouldn’t be able to escape the Divine clan today, since he had attacked the young master. Only Long Chen was stupid and brave enough to do that!
The group from the Divine clan had several people that were almost as strong as the young master, but they didn’t intervene even though their young master was attacked. They saw how powerful the martial technique was, but the user was too weak.
The earth shook from the impact as the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal crashed down and engulfed the young master in flames. Everyone instinctively knew that someone at the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage or below would’ve been done for!
“How’s the young master?” Everyone was curious to see what had happened when a blinding light cut the seal in half. The sword of light cut the flames into pieces and destroyed the seal!
Long Chen frowned.
To think that the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal, a technique capable of killing those at the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage, would be destroyed so easily. But the good thing was that the Divine clan’s young master had been distracted long enough for Xiaolang to get close to Long Chen. He could almost enter the Primordial Realm.
However, Long Chen had also used up all of his essence to use the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal. He couldn’t even punch, much less use Blood Warp.
But he had plans!
Rewind! Long Chen rewinded time, and the faint ripple covered his body. His essence swiftly recovered and returned back to how it was ten breaths ago!
Xiaolang was happy and immediately dove towards Long Chen’s Primordial Realm.
Just then, the young master had dismantled the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal, but his hair was a mess and his face was red. Looking at his disheveled clothes and singed hair, it was clear the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal had dealt some damage to him.
He had just destroyed the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal when he saw Xiaolang turning into a black light and entering Long Chen’s Primordial Realm.
“Trying to run? Violet Bone Chains!”
A violet chain shot out from the young master's sleeve! It was so fast that it ripped past space and tied Xiaolang up!
“What?!” Long Chen barely saw a purple blur before he heard Xiaolang howling in pain. Xiaolang was being binded by a purple metal chain that dug deep into his fur. Blood oozed out of the wounds!
“Xiaolang!” Long Chen was angry!
He had never let Xiaolang encounter such danger before. They were sworn brothers, and he had sworn to protect Xiaolang, but now the young master had used those chains to bind him!
Xiaolang’s eyes wincing in pain made Long Chen mad.
Long Chen’s eyes became bloodshot and a murderous aura exploded from his eyes. He glared at the young master as the latter slowly reeled in Xiaolang with the chains. “Stupid mongrel. Do you think you can escape? Nothing can escape the Violet Bone Chains, not even you!”
Long Chen looked at the chains and saw that it was indeed as Little Cat had told him before. Magical artifacts like these were used differently, and their effects were also quite different from weapons. But the Violet Bone Chains’ effect was very apparent.
“The Sun Devouring Wolf is a legendary demonic beast. How dare you become its owner with your lowly status and strength? You are desecrating such a beast. Don’t worry, I will take over and let it eat a lot of different flames. Its strength will increase by many times under my care. As for you, you can die now!” The young master was ecstatic to have Xiaolang in his grip.
He had no reason to talk so much, but he took pleasure in looking at Long Chen’s frustrated gaze.
“Big Brother …”
Xiaolang used the language of beasts to communicate with him.
“Big Brother, he’s too strong. Let me stay by his side temporarily. He just wants my strength and intends to tame me. He thinks I’m a beast, but I’m actually human, so he will never be able to tame me. Leave with him and escape. He will feed me flames and let me become stronger. Once either you or me can defeat him, we will skin him alive! Let’s settle this in the future!”
This was the only plan Xiaolang could come up with.
If Long Chen continued to fight here, he would undoubtedly die, especially since he had used Rewind. Long Chen was too unlucky today!
“Divine clan’s young master …” Long Chen gritted his teeth. He knew when to back down, and Xiaolang was right. The young master didn’t know that Xiaolang was originally a human and couldn’t be tamed. All Xiaolang needed to do was to fake it and then he would get a lot of resources to eat. Once Xiaolang became stronger, he could kill the young master!
That way, both of them could survive and become stronger! Long Chen would never have to face such humiliation again if he became stronger!
This time, Long Chen would have to swallow this humiliation!
He swore to pay it back tenfold.
“Xiaolang, promise me that you won’t attack him before I do!” Long Chen’s voice was trembling.
Xiaolang nodded.
They had decided on a plan, so now it was time to escape. Long Chen wanted to rescue Xiaolang, but it was impossible to do that now.
Long Chen took a deep breath.
Everyone looked at the youth. They recognized his strength, but there was nothing he could do since he was facing off against the young master of the Divine clan, someone who had both power and authority.
Everyone pitied him.
“I will come back one day and kill you! I am Long Chen, and you better remember my name!”
