Long Chen swung his hand to kill Elder Long Qi, and no one had time to react. By the time they realized and tried to help, it was already too late.
Everyone's expressions changed dramatically. Only then did they realize that this place was already covered by endless thunder power, and they were now within the range of Lei Ling'er's thunder cover.
That strike just now wasn't from Long Chen, but from Lei Ling'er. However, Lei Ling'er didn't make any move, and Elder Long Qi was killed.
Within Lei Ling'er's thunder range, few below mid-stage Fusion Heaven Realm could escape her attack, let alone the Dragon Banner elder, who was completely unprepared.
"Senior, please come forward again. Please accept my bow."
Facing his lifesaver, Long Chen was filled with gratitude. Just as he was about to bow, Elder Long stopped him.
"Child, from the moment I first saw you, I recognized you. You are as upright and honorable as your father, just as stubborn and unwilling to bow to anyone.
I know you will come back for revenge. I waited a long time, and now I am finally free, able to reunite with my family. Elder Long patted Long Chen on the shoulder and said.
"Senior, you ...," Long Chen was startled.
Elder Long looked at Long Chen with a slight smile, then pointed at the Divine Clan experts and said, "All my relatives from the previous generation have already passed away. Those from the previous generation have no real family ties left."
After the seven sons died, the scoundrel died in melancholy, and the reason I waited until today was to witness Long Zhantian's son return for revenge. "
Long Qiyao, you traitor." A Divine Clan Holy Lord roared angrily, wishing they could bite Elder Long to death.
Elder Long smiled calmly and said, "Traitor?" You could say so. Back on the battlefield, Long Zhantian saved my life.
The reason I saved Long Chen was, on one hand, to repay Long Zhantian's favor; on the other, Long Zhantian was a peerless hero. If his son were to die at the hands of a villain, it would be utterly unfair.
You might not know, but Long Zhantian is a rough and bold man. Many people think he's just a brute, but in reality, he's as meticulous as a hair and as wise as the sea.
Back then, he went mad because his beloved son was killed. After you suppressed them, he calmed down and knew Long Chen probably wasn't dead yet.
You will definitely see Long Chen as your last lifeline, so he sent me a soul message asking me to rescue his son.
Then, I did it. Now, I have no worries or attachments. I have fulfilled my promise to Long Zhantian, so I am leaving. "
Senior, why do you have to go through this?" Long Chen looked at Elder Long, his voice trembling slightly.
Elder Long gripped Long Chen's shoulder tightly: "Child, there are some things you don't understand."
When a person loses their faith, every day of life becomes a painful torment. I originally wanted to witness your revenge with my own eyes.
But no matter what, I am still a member of the divine clan. No matter how much I hate this hypocritical, dark, cold-blooded, and ruthless family, I cannot watch this revenge with appreciation.
But even if you don't look, haha... Me too... Know that ... The ending. After saying this, Elder Long closed his eyes, his whole presence completely drained.
Long Chen was shocked and hurriedly supported Elder Long, only to find that Elder Long's soul fire had already gone out. Unlike ordinary suicide, he died so naturally. This was a form of spiritual self-sufficiency. When the belief that supported him disappeared, his soul collapsed as well.
Looking at Elder Long's gaunt face, thinking of the care Elder Long had shown him during this period, and of the loss he had had to save him, Long Chen's nose tingled and tears streamed down his face.
Elder Long was present back then, which shows that he must have been an enemy of his father at that time.
In the midst of hostility, Long Zhantian entrusted his orphaned child in a crisis, and Elder Long agreed without hesitation. Even after paying such a heavy price, he never regretted it.
"Why... Long
Chen suddenly howled toward the sky, like a furious dragon roaring and changing the colors of the heavens. His roar was filled with endless resentment.
"Rumble rumble...
The mountains shattered amid the roar, filled with the power of the stars and the endless resentment in Long Chen's heart. The powerful figures present were shaken so hard their eardrums rumbled, and some with weaker cultivation were spurted blood wildly, hurriedly channeling their spiritual power to resist.
Why do good people always have such misfortunes, and why do bad people always get away with it? A good man like Elder Long lives so hard, while these villains before him are all living so comfortably? This world is far too unfair.
Long Chen held Elder Long in his arms. He didn't have deep feelings for Elder Long, and there was no blood or family bond between them. But Elder Long sacrificed his entire family's lives for a promise, never regretting it until death. That is what a true man is.
Long Chen carefully put away Elder Long's body, wiped away the tears at the corners of his eyes, and looked around. Only then did he notice that several people had joined the crowd.
Feng Fei, Ye Liangchen, and Jiang Wuchen also arrived. Clearly, they were also in seclusion, arriving a step later than Long Aotian.
Each of them had a powerful aura, having even advanced to the Saint Realm. Ye Liangchen and Jiang Wuchen stared at Long Chen with fierce intent in their eyes, clearly believing this was the best chance to kill him.
Only Feng Fei looked at Long Chen with a complicated expression in her eyes. Although Feng Fei was a woman, she had once been arrogant and unreasonable.
But deep down, she was a person with a strong sense of justice. In this regard, she was hundreds of times stronger than Zhao Ritian, Ye Liangchen, Jiang Wuchen, and Long Aotian.
Unfortunately, no matter how strong her sense of justice, Long Chen had already become the Divine Clan's mortal enemy. Moreover, the Divine Clan's stance was now fully clear, and she understood the Divine Clan's plan to seize the heavens.
Now, she could no longer stand on the side of justice and justice as she did during the tribulation. She had to stand on the side of the divine clan, with no right or wrong, only the interests of the divine clan; otherwise, it would be betrayal.
"Long Chen, what exactly do you want?" Long Aotian glared at Long Chen and shouted sternly.
Long Chen ignored Long Aotian and turned to walk in front of the Divine Clan Holy Lord. The Holy Lord was held back by Lei Ling'er's thunderous spear and didn't dare move at all.
If he made even the slightest move, Lei Ling'er would kill him immediately. When Long Chen stood before him, he finally felt fear, because he sensed Long Chen's determination to kill him.
"Long Chen, please don't kill me. I can tell you how to find your parents in the last session." The Holy Lord of the Divine Clan said in a trembling voice. As soon as he spoke, all the powerful members of the Divine Clan changed their expressions.
The dignified Holy Lord actually begged the enemy for mercy—this was a great disgrace to the divine race.
A mocking smile appeared at the corner of Long Chen's mouth: "Are you afraid of dying?" If you were afraid of dying, why did you bring it upon yourself in the first place?
Those who courted death always think they won't die, so you act recklessly and without reverence.
Do you know why I came here? Today I will proclaim my judgment on you in the very place where you committed your crimes, in the place where my parents shed their blood. "
Pfft"
Amidst the shocked gazes of countless Divine Clan experts, Long Chen produced a thunderous longsword in his hand, and with one strike, he beheaded the Divine Clan Overlord.
