Everyone looked at Long Chen, then at Long Aotian, and finally at the Divine Clan experts. Although they didn't understand what was happening, they knew that Long Chen's background must be extraordinary, possibly involving some secret.
Few people on the Tianwu Continent knew about the Demon-Slaying Saint Lord, but those who knew his name were all great figures. Seeing their shocked expressions, it was clear he was a world-shaking figure.
"It's that bastard's seed. How could he still be alive?" Elder Longqi's face twisted with rage as he looked at Long Chen, as if he wanted to bite Long Chen to death.
Although Elder Longqi hadn't been particularly good to Long Chen before, he had always treated him well, intending to cultivate him as a pawn of the Long family. Now, upon hearing Long Chen's true identity, he suddenly became violent.
"Elder Long Qi, please accept your condolences while you're at it. After all, this has been going on many years. Besides, your lineage hasn't been completely wiped out by Long Zhantian, so you were still spared, didn't they?" Looking at Elder Longqi's fierce face, the Zhao family head chuckled and advised.
Back when the Long family was in the civil war, Long Zhantian killed the Dragon family's strongest warriors. To extract information about his son's whereabouts, he had gone mad, killing everyone he saw. The Longqi elders' lineage was involved in that incident and was killed by Long Zhantian, leaving only him alive. If he hadn't been lucky enough to wait for the Holy Lord to intervene, he wouldn't have survived today.
So Elder Longqi hated Long Zhantian to the core. Now that he learned Long Chen was Long Zhantian's son, he was instantly filled with endless resentment.
Back then, the Long family was the most powerful among the Four Great Families, possessing over ten thousand Fusion Heaven Mirror experts, whose strength could crush the other three great families.
However, ever since that battle broke out, the Long family had been severely weakened and unable to recover. From the strongest family to the weakest, they had no choice but to give up their leader's position.
The other three families only heard that after Long Zhantian broke through to the Saint realm, his heart demon invaded, transforming into a human demon and slaughtering all the strong.
But they didn't believe this reason at all. They had secretly conducted some investigations, but the Long family kept the matter secret. Even the Holy Lord had issued strict orders forbidding anyone from mentioning it again.
So the Jiang, Zhao, and Ye families only knew that the Long family must be hiding some unspeakable secret. At the time, they thought it might be too shameful for the Long family to disclose.
Moreover, the Long family awakened a super genius, who was almost destined to become emperor in the future, but he turned into a madman. It was truly regrettable, but at the same time it made them somewhat gleeful. The once domineering and domineering Long family finally began to decline, and the throne began to take turns in turns.
Now, after hearing Long Chen's words, the whole sequence was clear. The heads of the Zhao, Ye, and Jiang families finally understood why Long Zhantian had gone mad. It turned out that his son's spiritual blood, spiritual root, and spirit bone had all been taken away. Anyone would have gone mad.
Back then, rumors spread that Long Zhantian's son later died young for unknown reasons, and everyone in the Ye, Jiang, and Zhao families knew this well.
Long Zhantian had killed so many members of the Long family. The Long family would never allow the son of a murderous maniac to live. His death was inevitable, not surprising.
Only then did they realize their suspicions were wrong, and there was a huge secret involved in it.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, the sky tore open, and a group of people descended upon the void. As soon as they appeared, everyone's hearts tightened. A terrifying holy might surged through the heavens, overwhelming the pressure.
The leader of the group was a tall middle-aged man with a square nose and mouth, and a dignified face.
This man wore a purple-gold robe, a purple-gold crown, and a purple-gold belt at his waist, resembling an emperor touring the nine provinces, making people afraid to look directly.
"Greetings, Holy Lord."
As soon as that person appeared, the Venerable Lord and several other family heads hurriedly bowed in greeting. Only then did the Divine Clan experts realize that this was none other than the Supreme Commander, the Holy Lord.
The Holy Lord waved his hand, signaling everyone not to be formal, then looked at Long Chen, who was locked in the eye with Long Aotian in the midst of the heavenly tribulation, his eyes filled with excitement.
"Chen'er, I am your great-grandfather, Long Junwu. There was a huge misunderstanding about what happened back then. The details will be explained to you in detail after the tribulation passes.
You are all sons of the Long family; you cannot turn on each other. At this time, with internal and external troubles, we must prioritize the bigger picture. Long Junwu shouted loudly.
His voice echoed across the sky, like a divine decree sent down by a god, reaching deep into the soul, making it impossible to defy his will.
"What?" The Divine Clan Holy Lord is actually Long Chen's grandfather? Hearing Long Junwu's words, everyone was shocked. This matter was getting bigger and bigger, even the Divine Clan Holy Lord had appeared.
Feng Fei stood amid the heavenly tribulation, glancing at Long Chen, then at the Holy Lord, her eyes filled with disbelief.
How did Long Chen suddenly transform into a member of the Divine Clan? And it was the Demon King of the Long family, with even the Holy Lord personally coming out.
Beside Long Junwu stood a man with three long strands of beard, giving off an ethereal and dignified beard. Looking at Long Chen, his eyes carried a trace of seriousness.
This man bore a striking resemblance to Long Aotian; he was Long Qifeng, but he looked even more handsome, calmer, and wiser than Long Aotian.
"Grandpa, I'm afraid Long Chen can't be kept. Once the bow is drawn, there's no turning back..." Long Qifeng whispered to Long Junwu.
"Shut up,"
Long Junwu shouted sternly, "You were at fault back then, otherwise you wouldn't have caused such a disaster. How can you keep making mistakes now?" Long
Junwu shouted fiercely, like a bolt from the blue echoing across heaven and earth, startling everyone.
"Long Chen, focus on your tribulation. Trust me, after you have crossed it, I will explain everything to you in detail." Long Junwu called out to Long Chen.
Long Chen hoisted the Dragon Bone Evil Moon on his shoulder, looking at Long Aotian before him. His fierce killing intent did not change at all because of Long Junwu's arrival.
At this moment, his blood was surging rapidly within him, growing faster and faster. The divine light of the 108,000 stars intertwined, and the killing intent had already invaded every bone, every drop of blood, and every nerve.
The first time Long Junwu spoke, Long Chen seemed not to hear. The second time, Long Chen's eyes finally flickered as he looked at Long Junwu. At some point, his voice had become hoarse:
"Who is my father? Who is my mother?"
That hoarse voice seemed to be the friction of the laws of life and death, making one's soul tremble. It seemed not to belong to the human world, but came from hell.
"Your father is the peerless genius of the Divine Clan, Long Zhantian, and your mother is from ... Her name was Luo Ningshuang. When Long Chen's mother's name was mentioned, for some reason Long Junwu paused.
"Are they still alive?" Long Chen's voice remained icy, and his violent killing intent instantly locked onto Long Aotian.
