Long Chen's Dragonbone Evil Moon pierced through the chest of the elder of the Divine Clan. Black runes lit up on the Moon, black energy swirled, and a violent power was about to erupt.
Even though the old man was a Fusion Heaven Mirror expert, being pierced now meant Long Chen's life was at stake.
Seven elders attacked simultaneously, their hands only a few feet away from Long Chen, but they dared not make a move.
Although they hated Long Chen, they all knew that this kid was a madman—he'd do anything, even kill the Emperor Sprout. He wouldn't fear killing another elder of the Heaven-Fusion Mirror.
This elder was from the Zhao family and naturally hated Long Chen deeply. They had already been extremely reluctant to invite Long Chen to the meeting, and when they saw Long Chen, they naturally had no pleasant words.
But he never dreamed that under the Azure Dragon Battle Body, Long Chen could ignore their bloodline pressure. Unfortunately, standing in front closest to Long Chen, he was caught off guard by Long Chen.
"Get lost!"
Long Chen shouted coldly at the elders. The Dragon Bone Evil Moon in his hand led the Divine Clan elder around, forcing the elders to retreat one after another.
"Long Chen, let Elder Zhao Xing go!" The elders shouted angrily.
"Smack slap...
Forcing everyone aside, Long Chen waved his hand and delivered thirty-six large slaps, a series of explosive explosions, like a single slap. In today's world, it was the only place where slaps could be so swift, with no subcolons—not even the Great Emperor could imitate them.
After Long Chen finished slapping, the elder had completely lost consciousness, his head so unrecognizable that it was impossible to recognize his face.
A murderous intent surged in Long Chen's eyes. This man called him a little beast, which was like insulting his parents. After Long Chen finished slapping him, his anger became uncontrollable, and suddenly light surged from the Evil Moon of the Dragon Bone.
"Stop!"
The elders present cried out in surprise. They had thought that after Long Chen finished slapping him, negotiations would begin, but he didn't play by the usual rules at all. After the slap, he intended to kill the old man.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, the void twisted. The Evil Moon of the Dragon Bone in Long Chen's hand roared and exploded, waves of energy overlapping, but it shook the entire void. The old man had actually vanished.
Everyone was startled and looked toward the front of the hall. At some point, a group of people had appeared at the front. Leading them was a middle-aged man with a square face, dressed in a purple-gold robe, a golden crown, and a jade belt at his waist. As his eyes opened and closed, mysterious runes appeared.
The moment he appeared, he felt as if time and space were being controlled. Every fluctuation in the world fluctuated because of his aura, and the laws of the world seemed to revolve around him—a power that was supreme and self-centered.
This was a terrifying powerhouse, so terrifying that words defamed him. His face was stern, and he was holding a person—the elder Long Chen was about to slay.
"Greetings, Honored Lord."
As soon as the middle-aged man appeared, everyone saluted him. So he was the Honored Lord of the Divine Clan.
The Lord of the Divine Clan appeared, accompanied by dozens of others, including Feng Fei, Long Aotian, Ye Liangchen, and Jiang Wuchen.
Feng Fei looked at Long Chen with a blank expression, seemingly not resenting him, but also showing no sign of closeness. She was still the proud Feng Fei.
Long Aotian also wore a cold expression, just looking at Long Chen indifferently. His expression showed no emotion, but deep in his eyes there was a trace of coldness.
Last time, Long Chen's behavior had made him very dissatisfied. He had wanted to help Long Chen, but Long Chen saw him as an enemy as well.
And for some reason, Long Chen carried an uncomfortable aura that made him uncomfortable to look at.
Although the Long family hoped he could get along well with Long Chen and try to win him over, he agreed on the surface, but was actually quite displeased inside. Especially that time when Long Chen stole the spotlight and caused the entire Divine Clan to lose face, he was even more upset.
However, Long Aotian had to stand on the Long family's side, so he would neither show goodwill nor malice toward Long Chen.
As for Ye Liangchen and Jiang Wuchen, they looked at Long Chen, their eyes shining like swords. Clearly, both harbored strong hostility toward Long Chen, especially Ye Liangchen, whose murderous intent was impossible to hide.
In the last battle, Ye Liangchen failed to go all out, allowing Long Chen to shine in the spotlight. That battle completely made Long Chen's name resound throughout the land.
The strong always walk forward by stepping on others' bones and dignity, but no one wants to be a stepping stone, especially powerful figures like Ye Liangchen and Jiang Wuchen.
Moreover, in that battle, Ye Liangchen was trapped by Huo Ling'er and couldn't fight Long Chen head-on. Yet outsiders said that even with Jiang Wuchen working together, they were no match for Long Chen. He was on the verge of losing his mind.
The Ye family strongly opposed negotiations with the Tianwu Continent, but this time he was suppressed by the Holy Lord, leaving him with no choice. His anger could only be suppressed for now.
"Tianxing, this person violated the Divine Clan's ban and brought shame to the clan. You should know what to do, right?" The Lord spoke, his voice deep and resonant, like clashing metal, radiating endless pressure.
"Understood, disciple will go open the Spirit-Slaying Coffin right away." Behind the Lord stood a person.
This man had fair skin without a beard, a slender build, and a voice very soft like a woman's, exuding a feminine aura. As soon as he spoke, Long Chen's body trembled violently, staring at the man in shock.
As soon as the man reached out to grab the elder, he immediately sensed and looked at Long Chen. His gaze was extremely sinister, like those of a venomous snake, radiating a soul-stirring fear.
He carried an indescribable, eerie aura; he was like a vengeful spirit roaming the mortal world, ready to take a life at any moment.
Long Chen's heart raced wildly. It was him, yes, it was him. His voice, and his slender fingers—what Long Chen had seen were those cruel hands that had dug out his spiritual blood, spiritual roots, and spiritual bones. The scene he had seen in the Reincarnation Lake—those hands, he would never forget.
"Long Chen, calm down."
At that moment, the voice of Dragonbone Evil Moon echoed in Long Chen's mind, pulling him back from shock and anger back to reality.
"What's wrong?" You know me? The man with a delicate face looked at Long Chen in surprise.
Long Chen suppressed his anger, trying not to get too agitated. He said coldly, "Yes, of course I do. The so-called executioner of the Divine Clan, secretly known as the executioner of the cold-blooded demon, I heard Ye Yaochen mention him before the Yin-Yang Realm."
What I didn't expect was that the person he spoke of as terrifying was actually neither male nor female. As
soon as Long Chen said this, all the powerful figures present gasped sharply and turned their gaze toward Lord Tianxing.
Heavenly Punishment is not a name, but an official title, the highest enforcer of the Divine Clan's Ministry of Justice.
Lord Tianxing is a figure feared by almost everyone in the entire divine race. It is said that he is cold-blooded and ruthless, even more cruel, with an almost perverse desire to torture. Anyone who falls into his hands will regret coming into this world.
Moreover, this Lord of Heavenly Punishment has a special fetish for the human body, especially those with special abilities, who are especially fond of it.
According toHe said his secret chamber was filled with human organs, and those sentenced to death by the gods had all been "studied" by him.
Lord Tianxing is a demonic figure in the Divine Clan. Throughout the clan, except for a few people, no one fears him. Now, Long Chen said he was neither male nor female, and everyone was stunned.
However, Long Chen's words also earned many people's admiration, because Long Chen spoke the words they dared not say.
"Kid, you're interesting. I'm very interested in you."
Hearing Long Chen's words, Lord Tianxing chuckled without saying anything, and simply disappeared with the elder of the Divine Clan.
"Your Majesty, Elder Zhao Xing was only angry and spoke a bit emotionally. Besides, Long Chen ..." After Lord Tianxing left, the Zhao family head immediately stepped forward to plead for the elder.
Even the family head didn't want to offend Lord Tianxing, because being watched by him always made people feel uneasy. Their fear of Tianxing even surpassed that of the Lord himself. Only after Lord Tianxing left did they dare to come out and plead.
You have to know, the Soul-Killing Coffin is a form of execution, the most humane punishment among them. If a person is locked inside, the fire of the soul will slowly die out, and if a person dies in a coma, they won't feel pain.
The Lord waved his hand, stopping the Zhao family head's plea, and said coldly, "Zhao Xing ignored the Holy Lord's decree and deserves death. No one can save him. Those who mocked Long Chen just now should go to Heaven's Punishment and claim their whipping yourself." "
When the Lord said this, the faces of those who had previously mocked Long Chen changed instantly. But since the Lord had given the order, they dared not speak any more and left in a flash.
The other elders' faces changed. The Lord was furious, executed one elder, punished dozens of elders with whips, and for a moment, everyone fell silent in fear.
Some people secretly feel relieved, thinking that trouble comes from the mouth. The ancients said no truth, but talking too much comes at a cost.
The head of the Zhao family looked grim, but in the end she endured it. She stared coldly at Long Chen, the hatred in her eyes almost tangible, as if she wished she could bite Long Chen to death.
"I wonder if my handling will satisfy you?" The Lord looked at Long Chen and said, surprising everyone by using the title 'Your Excellency.' This was a title of the same level.
Long Chen put away the Dragonbone Evil Moon and smiled slightly, saying, "Brilliant! You not only gave me a show of force, but also made a killing the chicken to warn the monkeys. Striking both sides, killing two birds with one stone. How could I not be satisfied?" "
How shrewd is Long Chen?" How could I not see through the Master's methods? He had come sooner or later, just when Long Chen was about to kill that elder?
If Long Chen killed that elder, the Divine Clan's reputation would be utterly ruined. But if he killed him himself, it would be another way to establish his authority, essentially using Long Chen as well.
Among the crowd, the Dragon Banner elder from the Long family's camp shook his head slightly. Long Chen was still young and impulsive; how could such words be spoken so plainly? Is this deliberately to upset the Lord?
But unexpectedly, the Lord showed no sign of anger. He smiled calmly and said, "
As long as you can see sincerity, that's enough. Can we have a proper talk now?"
